the turtles
Such an odd assortment of life these past few days. Wednesday was my AP Gov exams. The U.S. one was simple, nothing to it (or so I hope, but now that I’ve said that I’ll probably get a 1 out of 5). The Comparative one (international gov) was beyond hard. But then again we technically never took that course and the exam is kind of free if you pay for the U.S. one, so it was just a shot in the dark for most people. Although our class ended up creating some of the most profound artistic creations for the Comparative essay portion; mine was a fluently created Chinese Cookout. And then there was the lunch at the duck pond behind China Royal, that was fun. We found out that if you throw things at loud and obnoxious ducks then they’ll stop their annoying ways. And we saw the greatest duck chase ever as one duck bit another one’s butt for an extended period of time during a chase…a true Kodak moment.
Then, on a whim, I went to the movies last night. Just by myself, something to do. I saw Adaptation starring Nicholas Cage and Nicholas Cage. The idea is good (the movie about itself) but the storyline really needed more. Character development was at points unrealistic and every now and then you’d get thrown off due to the lighting quick changes in scene, especially with the time of occurrence differences. An ok film. 4.9 out of 10.
And Happy Birthday Allison! Also, Happy [belated] Birthday to Tabitha! You two are too cool to be used in a sentence with so many to’s. Yeah, I need some sleep… But I suppose I can blame it on this sudden storm that LBC has been stricken with. Yeah, it’s definitely raining hard.
