Why didn't I bring at least 1 dollar to school?! Why was I so stupid to forget-- again?! Why did I have to go trough a whole process that in the end, was so useless?! Answer: read the following. It's not a big deal really, but it did cause quite a lot of problems...
I was walking to the bus station with Dipsy and I asked if she had any money-- of course she didn't. Then we went and asked a couple of students also waiting for the bus, but they had none either. Or then they had but they didn't want to be so generous as to lend $1! We were both too timid to ask any of the forgein people at the station and they left quickly anyway, leaving us desperately wanting a lollipop! Yes, we wanted lollipops :P. Then D. suggested we check into the nearest Pizzria because she thought they had free lollies there... We walked and finally arrived, standing outside the pizzeria's glass door, and then I realized one thing but befor I could say anything Dipsy got ahead of me:
"I think they're having a birthday party in there..."
"Um..."
"Which means we can't nter because it's private" she explained and so we stood there, thinking, in the chilly air (that rimes!!!).
"Maybe we can go check at the grocery store, if thy have anything," I suggested, not exactly knowing why I wanted to go there, because since when did they give free money or lollies at the grocery store?! I think my main goal then was to get in the warm and quick! So D. agreed and we headed to the store, returning 10 minutes later, because, of course, we didn't have the guts to ask anyone for money (we didn't look exactly poor either). Oh, and looking at 100 of sorts of candyu is not a good thing whe you don't happen to have your money with you! When we returned, we decided to check if the kindergarden part of our school had any beads or flower pots we could "borrow" (we wanted to sell them XD)... as it was too late, we were out of luck-- the only human beings left at the school were my old sports teacher and his cute daughter. So we had to return-- AGAIN-- to the pizzeria, where a couple of girls at the b-day party were doing this weird disco dance behind the glass door (enclosed with free loooooolllipopssssss!). Suddenly I got a brilliant idea-- I suddenly ran and tried to pull a frozen flat rock out of the puddle, but with no success:
"What are you doing?!" Dipsy called
"We can write on it and draw and whatever and then give it in change of a lollipop" Looking back I know how stupid that was but c'mon-- it was an emergency... kind of... you probably see that my friend here and me-- we're not the give-up types :P. Finally we saw the b-day 9 year old girls emerging from the pizzeria and we ran for the glass door. 5 minutes afterwards, lollies in our hands we were sitting in the warm buss, our hands frozen off. We couldn't believe how stpupid we had been!!!
"That was NOT worth it!"
"Why didn't we just go IN, and ask for a lollipop in the first place, instead of spending an hour on nothing?"
Now, all we had to do, was explain to our parents, why we were late....

"It's interesting"
It feels very weird to write from the school library... I mean to write a blog... Anyway, I'd like to describe the current situation here in the school. I'll start with my 8th grade class: there's this girl called Ashley, and I'm sorry but she is more than ugly. Her super long hair doesn't fit her at all and much more. Conclusion: she looks horrible-- not just because of the hair because of everything else I don't have time to write because in 6 minutes I have to get up from my chair and leave for class. I don't juge a book by it's cover but in this case I should of have starting from the very first day of our friendship. We got on extremely well and then suddenly she starts thinking she's better than everyone!!! I know she's smart, but why the heck show off with it?! You don't have to practically shout that: "I'm already finished, what should I do now?" or " Mrs. Georges, if you have a headache, I can watch over these little kids while you get something from the school doctor..". You wont believe how annoying that is....
Then there's Dipsy, a girl who used to be in my class but now is in 8thC. We were and still are best friends but there's nothing very interesting about her...
Uhm, let's see there's Rico: he's a very cute guy who is the best in every subject. Absolutely 99,9% of the people in 8th like-like him. I used to too actually but I don't anymore because he's not my type-- I'm not into very timid guys...
Rose is a girl who is something you call 100% the class' clown! Because of her, our class is nicknamed "worst-in-school" by the teachers! *sarcasm*Yay*sarcasm*! Not that that bothers me a lot, but Rose, if you're reading this-- they said if you continue like that the school trip will b canceled and that's exactly what no one wants!

60 minutes of peace
And I'm back with a little more than more! So what now? I'll tell you: 28th March 2009, 1858 cities within 81 countries, + 5259 organizations and 18160 businesses have promised to switch off and stay in the dark for one hour (8:30 in the noon [pm] - 9:30pm local time). This "mission" is called the Earth Hour... This will be the largest demonstration of public concern about climate change that has so far been attempted!!! Personally, I'm so glad that now people are actually trying to do something! From my point of view right now, people have been talking and talking for YEARS, but no one has ever done nothing serious. So I'm happy and I really hope that this time, people will try to make a change and keep their promises to switch off the lights. I am 99,9% sure I am :).
Yes, people will argue with something like this :" I've got work to do" or "I couldn't write in the dark" and other useless, meaningless arguments. But why not relax for 1 hour?! It won't be one hour lost, but one hour gained! I assure you that this could be the best moment in your life: for example, hold someone you care by the hand, invite friends over and tell each other ghost stories, relax by the candle light. These are only some examples, there are tons more!
... Of course, you could vote global warming and earth destruction...
but I won't! This is my opinion, and if you agree (or incase you don't, you still got to check this site out because you will change your mind) please visit the official Earth Hour site!

Behind the scenes
An acting career would be really nice but you have to be good at it too. I'm not sure if I'm good at acting because I haven't done any professional acting before in my life... Lots of people from all around the world get the chance to take acting lessons, go to audition and whatever (not lots but still quite a lot I guess. I mean-- the Harry Potter final auditions had about 1 million candidates, no?) but I'm not one of them. I'm not even going to tell you all the reasons why I can't get a real chance at acting theater/film, because they're not really interesting...
But that's not what I wanted to talk about!!! I promised I would continue my tribute to the Titanic, so here are a couple of videos you should see...
Oh, and here's one of my current favorite quotes, stupid really but I love it. Fans know where this comes from : "Oh, man! We killed Mr. Burns! Mr. Burns is gonna be so mad!"-H., from a cartoon :D.

Long time no see
Yesterday, after a long wait, I finally got to see the movie that turned out a legend: Titanic! I had to wait so long! When I was 8 years old, I was too young to see it and I was forbidden by practically EVERYONE so I ended up trying to sneak in the living room to try and get a peek but nothing interesting. I remember getting a glimpse of when Jack and Rose go hiding at the ships bottom, in the room with all the passengers' luggage and a car that was shining "wow" all over the place, but that part was not very interesting-- I only wanted to see the end...
Now that I have seen the full movie, it has occupied a huge chunk of my heart... I kind of want to see the movie again but then I think: naaah-- to sad. Anyway, what did I think of the film in more detail? Well this should do it- GORGEOUS, REALISTIC, LOVELY, MOVING etc. I'm not bothering to get a dictionary, which is good for you, otherwise you would be overwhelmed by tons and tons of adjectives (not criticizing the film)! I thought it was wonderfully made and you really think that absolutely every tiny thing is real! Although there are some problems I find a teeeeeeny bit disturbing (otherwise I don't care =P):
- When Jack and Rose are escaping from the freezing water in the ship, I'm sorry but they would be exhausted VERY quickly and numb of coldness! I know, because where I live, sometimes it can get -40 degrees Celsius and it still feels that any second you'll be paralysed or something and you can barely move your fingers because it's so cold.
- Actually, I think that was the only problem XD
Whoops, I got to go now but I'll get to you later ;).
