Paper one and two in TWELVE HOURS or less. RISE AND RULE OF SINGLE PARTY STATES? Aaaah. Causes practices and effects of war?! NO CLUE. Cold War? WON'T EVEN BOTHER.
My only comfort is having read the entire Lenin/Stalin textbook over the weekend... WHY AM I BLOGGING. MUST STUDY.
MUST WRITE ESSAYS.
PANICCC.

'ello 'ello.
This'll be a very standard blog, nothing fancy.
IB History HL exam in um. Four days! And five days! It's a five hour exam you see, three parts to it and all. I've studied a lot of pages from this textbook, but it's really only been one subject, and there's sooo much more stuff to study, urgh.
Trotsky is so cool, he had this train he used to ride around during the civil war, it had a propaganda-making machine inside it, food, communications devices and all. Talk about a pimped out ride, and he rode all around Russia inspiring troops, which apparently helped a lot.
The night time is a very a neat place. There are many things that happen at night that can only be seen at night, it's very cool indeed. I must emphasize that I have not discovered the night alone, but rather had it shown to me.
High school's end is just around the corner (I'd make a pun involving Mr. Corner here but alas I have none), and it's severely depressing. It really is, I feel depressed whenever I think about it. Most people I talk to are awfully glad to be leaving high school forever, but it makes me very sad thinking I won't be able to wander the hallways like I usually do at lunch or whatever. I meet a lot of people that way, and though I do get told mean things from time "Do you HAVE any friends, Gabe?" (that comment having been told to me after my fifth circling around of the third floor), it's a sort of ritual, I suppose.
I am, of course, excited for Katimavik, with my departure set for September 17th, and my package detailing where my three locations will be to arrive sometime in the near future. But it's really scary, I can only describe this fear by comparing it to claustrophobia: for nine months, I won't be able to have physical human contact with any of the people I have come to know through the years. Though I'm not exactly a social person, and as such you may be tempted to think "but Gabe, you never did anything anyway", it's more of the fact that I WON'T have the chance to do something even if I wanted to that bugs me.
So, I suppose I should make the most of what's left huh?
We'll see what happens.
P.S. Ha ha, have fun with your 18-22 hours of IB exams, IB'ers.
P.P.S. Yes, I realize that I have school left whereas you're all done after those grueling hours, but shh.

Katima-Hyping + A Miracle Dig
Soon, I will find a way to describe everything with Katimavik. "Oh em gee, these katima-pickles are katima-awesome".
You know why?
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. It's like that feeling you get when all you grade twelves got your damn University apps (yes, I'm jealous, since I haven't applied this year). But now I've got something. Now I know what I'm doing next year, instead of rotting away in an academic institution, I'll be having one hell of a time. Nine months. I'll get my mail package about the three destinations I'll be going to sometime during the summer and stuff. Hopefully I'll go somewhere in B.C.! They usually have B.C. destinations. That would be ill.
So yeah, I kinda skipped this morning, wasn't feeling up to par and blah blah. But I only missed IB history, which is just review for the big giant exam in a couple of weeks, and Calc. Bahhhh. I'll go this afternoon, promise. "STOP SKIPPING GABE!"
Yours in Katima-Hype,
You know why?

I do not know where this blog title came from, do not ask!
So, another blog entry? Why not.
I think a good idea to explain to my recent experiences is to quote The Doors:
So, my friend J., whom I had met in the VRA hallways about a year ago invites me to this birthday party. Thing is, everyone at this birthday party is in Grade Ten, except me 0.0. Awkward right? Yeah, somewhat. But not too much, all it took is getting adjusted to the constant shrieking (they're banshees I swear) and everything turned out juuuust fine. Awkward moments are easily forgotten.
There are more pressing matters at hand.
ENOUGH. ABOUT. THE. EFFING. PYJAMA PANTS. Let's get some facts straight, shall we?
Firstly, they are NOT pyjamas, nor do I wear them when I sleep. They are called Thai Fisherman Pants, which I bought on ebay a couple of years ago. They're one size fits all. They're very comfortable, and they're summer-ish.
Yes, I've gotten the pyjama comment a good six times today. It is somewhat funny, yes, but LAY OFF THE PANTS. Thank you.
Am I angry? Not at all! Your blatant ignorance, in fact, amuses me! Bahahaha.
Happy April after all! Work ahead, procrastination ever closer.
I really don't work much, jeez.
Calculus Test and World Issues test tomorrow.
Gotta go procrastinate.
Toodemeddles, readeries.
I had a lot more to say, but it slipped my mind.

Strange days have found usYes, they're strange, very strange. Ever felt like an outsider somewhere? Naturally.
Strange days have tracked us down
They're going to destroy
Our casual joys
We shall go on playing
Or find a new town
