Blog 1/2 (They're mixed together)

Its snowing....
and its finally getting cold. Not that I want it to, but its just an observation.
This morning, I was late for Chinese school by about 20 minutes. Nobody cared.
Yesterday, I came home at 4:20, because MP offered to drive me back at four, so I stayed around after recycling. After I came home, ate a little bit (couple of those Danish cookies) did some other pertinent things, and slept at around 7:00, planning to wake up at 8:00 to work on my two theory practice exams due tomorrow and study for the test and also the theory exam. Woke up at 8:00 next day. (That's why I wasn't able to do a blog yesterday.) Quickly looked over and studied for Chinese a bit, then went down and ate. After everything, it was 9:20. Then, by the time I got to the bus stop, it was around 9:30, and I thought I missed the bus, so I just walked to school. While walking, I saw the bus pass right next to me. Hmph.

By the time I walked to piano, it was really cold. I was much better prepared now, though, and dressed appropriately.
It's during these times that I'm glad we have ground heating, double windows (or whatever they're called), and that our car has all-season tires and ABS. Its also these times that I'm somewhat disappointed that our car has unoperable airbags (don't ask), two wheel drive with a not-very-good differential (well, at the least its front wheel-drive), no traction controls of any kind (well, if you don't count ABS, and ABS isn't really a 'traction control' device), and no snow tires.

I'm not sure if I've talked about this before, but I remember very clearly there being no student testimonials for Middle Years Program. I wondered why before, but wasn't concerned up to the point of not applying for it. Now, I think I have a pretty good idea of why there isn't a student up there. If I was up there, I think I'd be able to convince everybody not to apply for MY, and probably Britannia Venture. Although there are quite a bit of good points, but the fact that its not a district-wide program eliminates most of the people who would benefit from them.

EDIT: Changed the blog counts, forgot it was term 2.
