Went headfirst into a bunch of old cards! Was looking to see what old rares I had and what I could do if I decide to make a Shiro Big Deck (an alternative format for L5R). For some reason I decided it would be a good idea to make a Crane collection. So now I'm going to try and collect one of each Crane card ever printed. Oooo boy. This is going to be hard.

My teacher was really generous and decided that she would cancel out Friday afternoon class right before the long weekend. People were happy about that. Problem is, I didn't know so I didn't get the email. So I bussed it for an hour down to Algonquin, had my class which was only one hour (ended up being more like 35-40 since no one showed up because the next class was cancelled), then left and took an hour getting home. It wasn't a huge hardship and I probably would have gone to the class anyways, I just dislike the new emailing system. Stupid microsoft.

I missed my class last week because I was rather sick, and apparently it was a good thing. Class went past 10pm. This time though I don't think we even went to 8pm. The teacher gave a lesson on activity write ups (I've done like a hundred of those for my placements) and then said we could leave. I will certainly not complain or argue with her.

So many nice days in a row, it was bound to just come down raining eventually. Bleh.

I really like the way the leaves change colour in the fall. It's always been my favourite time of year, and I think the colours really have a big thing to do with it. Things get cooler, things get prettier, Halloween comes closer and closer. Yeah, I think it's safe to say Fall is the best time of the entire year.

Dad's eye surgery went well. It took a lot longer than expected and he came back looking like a plastic wrap pirate, but the surgery went well. I guess in 2 weeks they do the other one.

I had some success with my L5R stuff today. After a whole arc of sucking, Crane (which is the faction I play) have finally gotten some good toys in the latest set. Considering I am going to Feeding Hills to play in a charity event very soon I've had to get a working deck in order. I took second place last year at this event, I doubt I will have as good a showing this time.

Urrrg, can't shake headache. And then got yelled at by James' neighbour for playing rockband. At like... 9 in the evening. Does this mean war?

Gah, sickness. I do feel marginally better this time than I did last time though, which is at least an improvement. The cold like symptoms are not as bad, but still not lessened enough that I am willing to get on a bus for an hour and a half each way to go to school for 4 hours. No, not happening. I did go though and go my assignment and hand in the work I needed to hand in, but I didn't stay for more than half an hour.

Then tonight I help a group of Yahoo's with their project. Turns out my camera really does take some decent videos when it needs to. This has led me to start thinking about things.

Jen came in today to give a talk to a class that I am not even part of. My teacher just happened to mention to me that she needed someone to come in and talk about comics and cartoons, and I mentioned Jen to her. The talk went so well, and I was ever helpful to help Jen out, that the teacher wants the two of us to come back and act as guest speakers in a different class of hers. As the picture shows, Jen was calm and cool as a cucumber while giving the lesson.
