Plants are not inanimate

So I was randomly singing one of the songs from Little Shop of Horrors yesterday. The "Feed Me" song. I really don't even know if that's the name of the song. But I realized that Seymour says "You're a plant, an inanimate object." Yet by definition, a plant is not an inanimate object since they are living organisms and even have some form of movement (research flowers that tilt into the sun). So in a way, the plant was right to say "Does this look inanimate to you." Creepy.

In other news, I went shoe shopping yesterday. I was looking for new shews to replace my old good shoes. I went to a discount shoes store since its the only place nearby. I originally tried looking for shoes in a 9 1/2 W but they were to big. In the end I had to go all the way down to a size 8. I ended up buying the most darling pair of black heals. They have about a two inch heel, are made of synthetic material, and have these adorable little bows on the front. You might say they look like they were made for little kids but honestly, what little kid wears high heels. Anyways their awesome but I have to wear them around the house before the gala. I don't wear heals to much so it will take some getting used to. I think I'll Post a picture later, since I don't have any pictures right now.

Today the yearbooks were handed out. They increased the price by $3 this year so that the year books could be printed in full color and I must say it was worth it. The photos look so much better in color. However they messed up on my grad writeup. They only printed like half of it. But at least they put the AV team picture in this year and I even got a picture in by myself. One where I am eating in the AV office. Mr. Rocko says that this is the first year they have gotten the name right, calling us the AV team instead of the tech crew. The only bad part is that, because of the timing, Jane is still in the picture even though she quit the team. That might make her think that she is still on the team.

Another bad thing is that we have to clean up the cage sometime soon. It is a disaster. I say leave it until after exams, when Craig and I have graduated. I don't get the point of Mr. Rocko taking the time to organize everything to his liking when he is about to graduate. If you think about it, it might be smarter to let the Orange Hat Boy organize the cage since he is going to be team lead next year. Speaking of OHB, B-rocker to Mr. Rocko that OHB has to set up the sound and lighting for the Athletics banquet all by himself (with supervision) to prove that he can do it. On the bright side, PHead seems to have accepted the fact that OHB will be team leader next year and he (PHead) won't. Although I suspect he is just biding his time to come up with a plan to take power. At the start of the year he tried to take power from Mr. Rocko, even going so far as to say "Do you mind if I sign this as Co team leader." For a guy who wants to go into the military, he sure seems to have a problem with authority. He wouldn't go up to his commander and say "Do you mind if I sign this as Commander Phead". Its just not right.

I don't know why I have been going on for so long. Probably because Mr. Rocko is working on English in the resource room so he is not here to continuously interrupt me. I still have another 45 minutes of spare though. If I had known that Mr. Rocko was working in resource this period, I would have gone home at lunch time.

With yearbooks always comes another thing, yearbook signings. I haven't gotten a lot of signatures since grade 9 but I think I will try to this year, seeing as how I am graduating. I will probably bring my yearbook to Band Practice this morning and get some of my fellow Band members to sign it. It's kind of sad to think about how fast these past four years have gone by. Or that I will be going of to University next year, 7 hours away from home. And that Mr. Rocko won't be an hours bus ride away because he got wait listed at the university he wanted to go to.

In other news, we had the cake auction last Friday I think. Mr. Rocko and I were the representatives for our class. Our class only raised like $11 so we only got one thing. Mr. Rocko was left bidding while I went to get a microphone from the cage and when I came back he told me that he had bid blindly on something. We later found out it was cupcakes. There were not enough for everyone so those who had contributed money got a whole cup cake and I got a whole cupcake because I was a class representative and everyone else had to make do with splitting cupcakes.

I am starting to get worried because I have to by a prom dress soon. I have not worn a dress since I was 12. I don't own any dresses and I have no idea where to go shopping for a prom dress. I don't even know what a prom dress looks like. Any hints would be appreciated.

I had a busy weekend because I had a lot of things to study for, including a biology test, a math test, and a math summative. I am also busy studying computer science since our written test is coming up soon. Basically that's everything in my life right now. How boring!
