today was just like any other day, except that it was a collabrative day, so it was a late start day.
as we are driving to school i am reading the day text but then all of a sudden i feel the van pull over to the side. i look up from the day text to see that my mom has pulled over at the bus stop. then i see my friend coco pick up her bags and jump into the car. i quickly finish reading the text, but no one is listening anymore, but i still finish it for myself, as my mom is talking to coco. for the rest of the ride to school i play the radio and my mom continues to talk to coco. my mom drops us off at school and we are 10 minutes early. when we enter the school we go strait to my locker and then we join charlsie. just as i sit down next to her the bell goes. i then wait there a minute and then finally decide to get up to class. we take the elevator up to the third floor. as we are walking to the elevator we see our friend katie. we ask her if she would like to join us in the elevator but she declines because she has a class on the floor we are one, second. as we are waiting for the elevator we talk to her to kill time, then the elevator doors open and we enter it still talking to katie. as the doors are closing katie enters the elevator. when we exit the elevator we meet steven going to english class. then me, charlsie, and coco leave steven and katie to go to tourism class.
the rest of my day was not to exciting, not that my morning was anything exciting either.
in the afternoon i had my earth science test on the solar system. the EASIEST test i have ever taken. i did it in like 10 minutes. after the test i took out my mp3 player and listened to rise against, nickelback, and faber drive while reading "facing the lion". after everyone had finished the test my teacher handed out a sheet of paper with an assignment that involved us going outside and describing the atmosphere outside. after she explained it to us the class went outside. most of us ended up going off into pairs. i ended up working with nina, josh joined us for a bit, but then we lost him. after we were done outside it was next class.
food was my next class. in foods today we had to make some sort of greek chicken phyllo thing with almond rice. it was so good. since i dont know what it was called i will descibe it to you.
the chicken was: chicken breast with caramellized onions and fresh basil, feta cheese, mozza cheese, and a spinach leaf wrapped in phyllo. so delicious. it tasted like spanidacopita with chicken in it. so amazingly good. the rice was pretty much just flavoured rice that we added almonds too. really good too, but the chicken was so good!
foods class was entertaining, as always. everyone was a bit slow today, because it was shorter classes, so most of us had to stay after school for a bit. we had to stay and extra 8 minutes because our chicken had to still cook, but so worth it. :)
when i got home from school i got a call from irina, confirming if we are going to go bike riding today. after the phone call finished up my chicken stuff and then switched into my pe shorts and got out my bike. i still had some time to kill before irina got to my place so i checked my facebook. as i was on facebook irina walks in the door.
when she got to my place we tried to convince my brother to come with us, but he didn't want to come with us. so we made a deal that we would go around the block and see if he would wanna come with us then. so we went around the block and came back to my house. irina went into the house to see if my brother would come with us now, but she came out empy-handed. we decided to go to queen elizabeth park. it was a great bike ride. it was balanced well. the right amount of flat, down hill and up hill. it was my first time going in a few weeks. i love bike riding. i could bike ride for hours if i wanted. there are so many things i love about biking; 1) its good excercise, 2) you get to see lots of beautiful scenery, 3) so much faster then walking, 4) you get to feel the cool breeze of the wind when you go down hill, or really fast, and 5) it is relaxing but challanging.
when we got to queen e park we walked through the park. so beautiful! now one of my favourite places in vancouver. i have never had a favourite place to go too, but i think queen elizabeth park, the bridge is going to be my favourite place, now that i know how to get there.
when we got home we ate a lukewarm dinner. it wasnt very hot becuase it had been sitting for awhile, and i didnt bother to reheat my dinner. then irina helped my mom with some sort of computer program stuff and then i walked with irina to 7-11 to get slurpees, but we departed at 7-11, because irina needed to go home, and i needed to do homework, which by the way i still need to do. i hanvt started yet.
so ta ta for now
