Watching a play ground full of kindergarteners try and understand just why you are making them stand still and quiet while taps plays through the intercom system is a strange and somewhat funny sight. They don't really understand what Remembrance Day is, other than it has to do something with soldiers and poppies. Almost right after the moment of silence some jets flew over the school in formation. The kids were awed and amazed.

I have to finish writing a reflection paper today. The "article" I have to write about it just so... stupid. I plan to tell the teacher that I found the "article" a little over the top, insipid and just a feel good piece of claptrap. We'll see how that goes.

The Wii I ordered arrived today. Considering I told myself I wouldn't play it until the end of the week, this week suddenly seemed to grow much much longer.
It's a cool red one though, apparently it's the 25th anniversary of Mario, so the Wii is all red. Likewise I took Brandi out last night so she could get her DS, which is also shiny and red.

Yes, I know my pictures have been very late. And yes, I know for the most part my pictures have been boring. I'm getting down to the wire for some of my class material, so my pictures are just sitting on my camera and then I do a mass upload.

That said, I am starting to think about what I want to do next year. I want to do some sort of photo project, but not necessarily a once a day thing. I am trying to think what sort of blog related activity I can do with pictures that isn't necessarily a once a day thing. Time to start brainstorming.

Thinking it was getting late out, I came home at 9 o'clock. Stupid me forgetting to change my stupid clocks!

I've never been one to play a huge amount of video games. And yet, lately, I've been playing them more than a bit. Rock Band and Mario Kart are just really fun though. So fun, in fact, that I actually ordered a wii! Newest Nintendo system that will be in this house since the N64.

So my group will be doing a presentation on rocks and stones. We did a sink and float test to see what rocks would sink. Yes, I know it sounds silly, but one of them did end up floating.

Today was single handedly the grossest day I have ever worked at the Daycare. Not going to get into details, nor do I really blame the kids involved (well, a little bit, they should know better) but really, really gross. The kind of gross that makes you come home and change your clothes.
Also, lots of rain + Ottawa Sens Game + Traffic = My not going to class this evening. Wasn't worth it and I had enough to do as it was.

Exam, again. This only leaves 3 more to go (well, 2.5 since 2 of the exams are for one class). I think I hate myself a little for what James and I decided to do afterwards. At least I can say I tried that Double Down thing... gah. It's like a chicken and salt sandwich.

You know what's sad? The amount of poor, killed pumpkins splattered in the streets the days after Halloween.
