WBS, It's got even the best of us.

Yes my friends it's a sad tale but a true one. WBS has taken its tole on us and is spreading quickly. Daily production is ruined by this syndrome (there is the "S" in that). Just like bears, us students, in the winter (there is the "W" in that) tend to hibernate for longer then we would in our daily lives. The break (there is the "B" in that) tends to ruin our sleep schedule. I hope you got it by now but if not here it is. Its the Winter Break Syndrome. It definitely got me, who else has it??? Be honest!!!

So today I didn't do anything too special. I read my some of my french book which I'm not really enjoying and I also played some basketball in the lovely summer weather *I wish. Just layer up and you can easily play a good game.

The highlight of my day was going to a holiday concert. A very famous European performer was in Toronto and my mom managed to get tickets. It was a great concert with some very well known songs as well as some newer ones. Pretty good concert.

Well I'm of for today but as promised yesterday here is The Useless Fact Of The Day.
Today's useless fact comes from http://www.pmbc.com/fact.html. Here it is:

Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is the fear of long words.

I'm not even going to try to pronounce that one but you can have fun doing it.

Ok that is it for today.

Doubling up!!!

Alright so here's the deal. Yesterday I was working like a horse trying to get way too many things done so I really had bupkis time (for all of you in my music class you know what I'm talking about) to blog. Hence my title. I'm going to try something extraordinary, something marvelous, something no one has ever done before, I'm going to write 2 days worth of doings in just one blog.

Ok fine, maybe a ton of people have done it before, maybe it isn't so special. Hope I didn't get your hopes up too high.

Anyways yesterday I woke up at a very late 10:30 (call me a bum if you wish) this really didn't give me much time to just chill and relax. I got straight to work as my dad left me a hefty list of things that he wants to be done by the time he came home. He even put a star beside one of them. Can you guess what it was??? Here's a hint: they're bright, tangled, a pain to work with but must be up for Christmas.

You guessed it Christmas lights,  dot dot dot dash (just a little something for the classical music fans).
If you didn't guess it, maybe next time.

Christmas light are a pain in the behind to work with, getting them out of the box and untangling them and then putting them up on a house. I'm telling you it's hard work and hopping up and down on that ladder really kills your legs. I didn't fall and my house is looking pretty darn good.

Then the joys of the dentist came. They numbed half my face, for the next 4 hours the left side of my mouth was looking quite funny. If I ran into a pole I wouldn't have felt anything. It was quite funny though. My little brother had a good laugh and a few free shots at my face.

Good thing I finished my Christmas shopping, I sure hope mommy and daddy like their gifts. The good old sweater should do the trick *I hope. But promise me you won't reveal the secret.

Ah for today we have clear skies with a chance of french homework. That's right everyone Alin is going to be doing, wait for it, HOMEWORK!!! I know, I know I said the same thing but Im determine to put this break to good use and make it helpful.

Alright well that's it for today I'm off to my reading, I'll be here tomorrow though for more exciting stories and just a little notice. From now on I'll be having a little section called "The Useless Fact Of The Day". Hope you guys are looking forward to that.

A fresh start!

Alright, due to a little bit of a mix up in my Blogger account and a bit of inspiration from the one and only Grace Lee I decided to get a fresh start on my bloggin' (love my grammar; hope Mr. Arkin doesn't kill me for that one). So this is it. Let's see how should I start numero 1. I think I got.


WINTER BREAK!!! It's finally here. Three weeks of kicking back and homework. I have a lot to go over this winter break, I'm going to be a busy little boy. I've already got it all planned out, I know it's something unusual but it's something I want to try for the new year (kind of an early new year's revolution). I really want to strive for higher marks for the rest of the semester. I need to put the pedal to the metal and "just do it". Credits to Nike for the quote. I love that quote :). So as I was saying, if I just dig deep get my hands a little dirty I'll finally be able to reach the marks I would be satisfied with.


Now to make this first time thing just a little more interesting I'm gonna give you my top 10 moments of my 2010 year at VP. Here they are.

10. Coming in at number ten is facing of my oldest and closest friends, a brother from an other mother so to speak, during my volleyball season. One year your co-captains leading one team to the playoffs the next your fighting for one playoffs spot on different teams. What a change of pace eh? Now he is my rival for years to come. I love him but I can't loose to him.

9. My number 9 seed has to be learning everything I have so far. Thanks to all the teachers for opening up my eyes and to my friends for helping me out. You guys rock!

8. For the number I wore representing all my sport teams the past few years I have a special moment. Well 2 combined into one. They are making the semifinals for both of the intermural sports. Thanks to all my great teammates for making it all possible.

7. This is a just a little example of how a little bit of early preparation helps. My 2 years of cursive writing paying off in the most unlikely place. A computer course (just think about it).

6. Oh god, getting my first 90+ mark of the year. Bitter sweet as I made a stupid little mistake to ruin a perfect score. *Face palm time.

5. This could go higher up on the list but I guess I'll just put it right here. The number 5 moment is a shout out to all of my "bros" for all the joking around and fun times we had. Big Kev, the one and only Abidi, Mr. Parth Patel and can't forget him Ryan Do-it-up, you know who you are guys. Let's keep the fun times going "bros".

4. 4 four it's going to be the 2010 Holiday concert (just last Friday). It was an amazing concert and everyone had a great time. Good job Jr. Band.

3. Ahh, this is something that means more to me then any other people. I'm referring to my first kill in a highschool volleyball game. It felt great and kinda got me started with my love for volleyball. Just a cool moment.

2. Getting closer to the number one, just this one and were there. My number 2 moment has to be meeting all the amazing people that I didn't know but also reuniting with some old, lost friends. You guys are the best!!!

1. Finally, #1. Anyone that knows me just a little would know that it would be relating to sports. And your right!!! My number one, favorite moment has to making the jr. boys volleyball team. I got a chance to play out a dream and play with some really high level players this year. Thanks you guys, you made me the player I am today. Couldn't have done it without you. Shout out to Henry Chen, my fellow setter and number one target. You rock man.


Alright that it for my novel of a blog, I promise they will get smaller. Tell me what you think about my fresh start.
I'm out...
See you guys l8r
