This week has been very, very tiring, for many reasons.
The first was the hike we had to do at the end of last week. It was 15K in and 15K out. I practically died on the bus when we got back. It was over a series of days, so it wasn't as bad as it might have been. On the way there, it rained for 99% of the journey. In the end, we didn't really care about getting wet. My rain trousers had ripped in the first five minutes of the hike, so I had to walk with my legs wet and cold. When we got to our campsite, Erin said that she could make a fire "in the snow", and proceeded to sit by the fire pit for an hour and poke at the sticks inside. In the end, Madame Jones had to make it. It took her five minutes XD. We laughed so hard. During the night, I kept thinking I could hear bears, and the fact that Robyn was snoring didn't really help with my fear. Neither did the fact that we had all our food in our tent because our site didn't have a bear net. Also, Robyn sleep-talked the whole night, saying random stuff like "Guys, there's an elf!". On the way back, it didn't rain until we got onto the road for the last KM. It was a full-on thunderstorm. Maddy and Madame Jones had to drag me down the road, because I twisted my ankle really badly. So, all in all, it was a brilliant way to spend a weekend.
The second was that my 'best friend' has decided to become the most annoying creature on the face of the planet. It's a rather long story, but I'll attempt to explain it coherently. On Monday, I sat next to Erin in first period and second period. Then, during History, she sat next to Maddy and snickered at me as I passed her, like she was hurting my feelings or something. Then, at break, I went to the dorms with Sage and Robyn. When we got back, Erin was all sullen because she didn't know where we'd gone. In fourth period, I sat next to Maddy and, of course, Erin said 'Well, it looks like I'll be sitting alone AGAIN. Whatever'. I just wanted to slap her. She didn't sit next to me in History, so I had no reason to sit next to her in Math. Then, at lunch, I sat at our usual table, and Erin got angry because I "didn't save her a seat". It's a freaking cafeteria; you can't "save someone a seat". She then proceeded to sit by herself and cry about how lonely she was. Maddy went to talk to her, and told me that she'd said "I was trying to talk to her for like...HALF AN HOUR in the lunch line, and she ignored me!". Maddy had said that maybe I hadn't heard her, and then Erin said "Well, i was probably more like 5 minutes, but I was yelling". She wasn't even in the line when I was there. She then began to complain about how I hadn't sat next to her for 5 days. Um..hello? This was our first day back from our hike; we hadn't been at school for the last five days. Ugh. I probably sound like such a child, but this is what my life with her consists of most days.
Yesterday, my debating coach tried to coax me, yet again, to join the senior debating team, even though he knows full well I don't want to continue debating. To make matters worse, my mum had emailed him, saying that he should force me. FML.
I still have no idea what I'm going as for Halloween, even though I have to go shopping with my mum today for a costume. My ideas have all been turned down by various members of my family. Originally, I was going to go as a parrot, but then Rosie stole that idea. Then I was going to go as an avenging angel, but my mum said that was too emo. Then I wanted to go as the Cat in the Hat, but my mum didn't want to do any sowing for me. How come she'll do sowing on Rosie's costume, but not on mine?
Well, my life's really fun at the moment ._.
