Lack of time and interest…

I don’t know why, but this week I didn’t have at all time for the site. Not only that I had 3 test papers, and all of them at Romanian, but I felt a bit lazy, and I realised that I should spend less time in front of the computer, cause my eyes really hurt :|

About an hour ago I was watching my one of my dance coaches on TV. And I was like OMG! How much she can lie and exaggerate things :nerd: Just to give you a few examples, cause most of what she said was far from truth :D , she said be achieved 5 cups in Italy 2006, but we achieved just 4, or “The school’s headmaster called me when we were in Croatia and told that it doesn’t matter if we win something or not, they will love us as always and all that matters is if we are okay. Then I turned the phone on speaker so the kids could hear everything that the head master was saying, and it motivated them so much that after the call, on the same day, they won their first cup.” The headmaster called, but no one turned the phone on speaker, and none of us, the kids, could hear anything and honestly, it wouldn’t have motivated me that much if I had heard the head master encouraging us 8-| Or another super lie “Some of the kids have been practicing gymnastics for over 12 years, even more” Hellooo! I’m 15, and I have been there for the longest time, and I didn’t started at 3 years old! :| And the list of lie and exaggerated facts is like endless! Oh God! It makes me laugh every time I watch her on TV, cause I know the whole truth and it just overtakes me most of the time what a great “talent” this woman has in lying :)) But something that really bothers me is that she never says about our other coach, who actually does the whole work: the choreographies, she teaches us the dance steps, the acrobatic elements and so on. This fact bothers me very much and I can’t really explain it, cause they are good friends… :|

Whatever…I think tomorrow I won’t be able to do anything, cause I’m going to Lavi’s birthday party *Happy Birthday Lavi!* starting from 2 o’clock in the afternoon (which is kinda strange hour for a birthday party :nerd: ) so I’ll be away from computer and the site for almost the whole day. I hope this week will be easier (ahh…I’m saying this like every weekend but it never comes true 8-| ) and I’ll try to update, or at least be a bit more active. I gotta go now, cause I wanna read New Moon b-) as on average I’m reading like a chapter or two a day, but some days I don’t read at all :D Friends can’t explain how can I stop from reading this book, and how I don’t become obsessed…uhmm..Maybe I’m just less likely to become addicted to something…or dunno :D Bye bye now! :)

On a gagné le Grand Prix!

Woohooo! We won the Grand Prix at the french or ‘francophonie’ contest we had on Friday. After so many weeks of rehearsals the day of the contest finally passed over, but now I’m struggling to take off that ‘grrr’ accent :| Oh yeah, and also English doesn’t seem as fluent as it was before..lol…that’s bad :| All this français thing kinda affected me, cause we repeated so much, and I tried so much to get my accent as french as possible cause now some r containing words come out of my mouth a bit ‘rrr’ even in Romanian. Damn it! Not to say that parts of the drama come into my mind again and again 0.o Sometimes I find myself repeating in my mind parts of my presentation speech, or parts of that childish song called ‘Le Chat Botté’ suddenly pop up into my head…duh! I need to get rid of this as soon as possible! :-s Oh…but I started with the band things …haha :D So…I omitted what was the most important, that our drama won the Grand Prix, out of another like 20-25 participant groups from various schools in our region b-) The play was written by one of our mates from the 7th grade, and then translated into French by our teacher. It was about a girl that was the new one in school and couldn’t stand the French teacher ( I can’t really give you any sharp details cause of course almost nobody could fully understand all the words :blush: ) It starts with that girl walking around her bedroom and confessing to her diary all her complaints about the teacher and the new school in general. Then two mates, a girl and a boy, come to invite her to the ‘circle de français’ (well that’s sort of a meeting between students and teachers, usually hold in the weekend, where are developed fun activities like drama, dance, singing, literature and so on). After a long talk the two manage to convince the main character to come with them. Once they arrive at school, the French teacher behaves very friendly with the girl, and tell everybody there that the girl’s poem entitled ‘Frustration’ (french accent here :D ) was chosen for a contest. Then the choir starts singing and a group of dancers starts dancing. After that, back into the girl’s bedroom, she’s again with her diary, saying that from now on she has friends and feels much better. And then finally the drama ends with kind of a cliche “J’adore ma vie!” 8-| Whatever, the idea of the drama is nothing extraordinary, it’s actually pretty common, but the actors’ role play, and the spectacle offered by the choir and the dance group were those which made this drama extraordinary, and indeed a winner. I’m very happy we won, cause our teacher is very strict and kinda perfectionist, and less than the Grand Prix would have been a disappointment for her, and a failure for us. But it all ended up well! :)

And…because it’s some of those tough weeks for me, today I had the geography contest, the county stage. The subjects were pretty rubbish and annoying. I mean…from all those interesting things they could gave us, like identifying cities or rivers on a map, they gave some stupidities that nobody could have ever think of…but anyway it doesn’t mean to much for me, so the result, whatever it will be, won’t bother me too much. The intriguing thing is that the teacher told Ramona that she didn’t qualify for this stage of the contest, and she has even scold her taking a mark way below the expectations. But when another girl and I went to the contest today we saw that actually Ramona was on the lists, so she qualified. This made me change my opinion about the teacher, cause I tend to believe that she DIDN’T WANT to tell Ramona she qualified, rather than she DID A MISTAKE 8-| But…whatever, we’ll see on Monday or Tuesday the teacher’s reaction and explanations about what happened.

Ahh…I wanted to update a little today, or maybe just return comments, but it seems that I didn’t have time …again! :| First, mom had a lot to work and she needed the computer, and then when my time finally came, after I checked out my email the internet connection broke down, and it took me like half an hour to restart the computer. After that my dad took my place in front of the computer, and I finally managed to sit in front of the computer after my dad finished and I took a shower, so pretty late, as now I just have time to finish this blog and go to bed. Hope this week I’ll have some more free time, although I may have a couple of test papers 8-| And I’m really sorry if I made any grammar or spelling mistakes in this blog, but not only french took over English this week, I’m also very tired :-s Bye bye now!

Spring arrived?

I think spring has definitely arrived here :) Today is such a beautiful day, the sun is shining so bright, the sky is blue and clear, not even a cloud ^^ The trees are blooming, and so do flowers… It seems like spring has arrived into me too, cause I’m feeling just like the nature, I feel like the sun is penetrating into my soul. Lol…what a weird ‘poetical’ feeling :nerd: However, spring is my favourite season I think, cause it just brings me to life again :D It makes me feel so wonderful when I see all those blossomed trees, and the entire atmosphere smells so good, like those blossom flowers. It’s just so beautiful! I absolutely love this period of the year, and not only because it’s close to my birthday :D By the way, it’s less than a month left until my birthday haha :D Wow…I’ll be 15 in a short time, and I don’t even feel like 14 :| Not to speak about the fact that I look like 13, at most 14 8-|

Hmm..now I have a few questions for you:

  1. Which season do you like most?
  2. Do you feel like your age, or do you feel younger/older?
  3. Do you like the smell of blossoms?

Happy B-day grandma&Motocu!

Kinda weird topic, but I really don’t have any other ideas 8-| Today it’s my grandma’s and Motocu’s (one of my classmates) birthday..lol :D I’m going to Moto’s birthday party in about an hour, so I don’t have that much time to blog, or do anything else. I hope we’ll have fun at the party, as he’s organising it at a local pub I’ve never been to before. As always, I’m in a big dilemma about what should I wear. I don’t know whether to choose a long-sleeve or a short-sleeve T-shirt :nerd:

Whatever…The only interesting thing that happened at school this week was that we had a new classmate for 3 days, as he has disciplinary moved in our class because he and some other of his classmates have been caught smoking somewhere near the school by the religion teacher (Oh, Romeo, you became a detective now? X( ) Oh, and about Romeo, the religion teacher. I laughed a lot when I found out that he’s also called Romeo :)) besides Felix, which is also a funny name. Felix-Romeo b-) Sounds cool, eh? So, as I said, I can’t stand this teacher anymore. You’re unbearable, unbearable! He’s pissing us off with his subject that no one takes for serious, and just can’t understand that no one’s interested in his boring speeches about…about…ermm.. :-s whatever they are about! :D I haven’t been at his class for about 2 weeks I guess :D , so I’m not really up to date about his topics and who he has argued with lately, cause most of the time he argues with someone in the class. Anyway, I have just about 3 months left to stand him and his booooring classes, 3 months when I’ll probably be skipping his classes for some reasons like exams approaching, being taken by a teacher to work something or just pure class skipping >:) What a pity that this year we don’t have religion as the last class, cause that would had made missing his classes much easier :D

Anyway, I have to go now! ^^
