Ohh yeah, it's the sweet taste of amazing. (Yes, I hope that DID hurt you eyes to try to read.) Life is good. As of a couple weeks ago, I am the school spirit representative on next year's student council along with my partner. Oh yes. I have tasted the foot . . . AND I LIKE IT! (Yes I know Student Council is a popularity contest.) Then, last Wednesday I was officially accepted into the 'Journalism and Media Studies' course at my school, which is gonna be A-flippin-MAZING. The course runs all year, and you spend the first half of the year doing various assignments in desktop publishing, a lot of work with writing aswell as some photography. The latter half is spent designing and compiling the yearbook, which I am IMMENSELY looking forward to, another point is awarded to the course  for having Jones, one of the most motivational, funny teachers you will ever meet. (My art teacher, takes home the Gold for most hilarious though. You can't go through his class without laughing. HARD. atleast like, eighteen times. Daily. Okay, getting off topic.) Then, just yesterday, I recieved a phone call from the people at the YMCA letting me know that I've been pre-approved for a student exchange taking place starting at the end of the month. (Basically, I swap houses with someone in Quebec for six weeks, I work full time for those six weeks, and every weekend I go to group activities with other kids in the program. For free. I pay 50 bucks to go, and make about 2k while I'm there.)  So yeah, life is pretty sweet.

Other than that stuff, last Friday was the student council retreat, which was super-fun, but also a little stressful, as we had one hour to decide ALL the student council dates for next year. The student council's looking real good for next year, a lot of people I really like are in it.  The prime ministers are two of the funniest guys ever, and the ministers of advertising are two girls who I absolutely LOVE.  Today was a trip with the math department and science department to Canada's wonderland, where I spent nearly all day hanging out with a guy from my math class. Which mostly consisted of us yell-screaming on totally tame rides for kicks and calling everyone and everything a douche. (Also we ate pizza that tasted of cardboard and watched Ferris Brueler's day off.)  It was actually a super-fun time. Even though he made me go on the stupid water rides, and I got totally soaked. (And was cold an miserable for the ride home as a result.)

In other news, I have been obsessively playing The World Ends With You for the last six or so days, which is an AMAZING game and I reccomend it to anyone with a DS. (I was waiting for it's release since it wa announced . . . In Japan. I've only just recently had the cahnce to actually play.) The characters are very quirky and the gameplay is pretty interesting (if not a little confusing at first), and ... I love it. I'm very fond of the characters, the story is very refreshing, and I can't forget the reason that I was first interested - the artwork - like wow. For me it's just so unique and fun, and amazing. I know not everyone thinks so, but I really REALLY like how stylized the game is. Speaking of stylized games that I've fallen head over heels for - No More Heroes. I've been vaguely interested in the title since it's release, but only managed to pick up a copy last week. The game is VERY unique, the art, (Which I love), is very stylized, and I'm REALLY fond of the gameplay. For me, playing this game is a little strange, since it's so different from the type of games I usually play. (Gameplay style is slasher, more or less) The game is very clearly geared towards the male population, but I'm really enjoying it so far. (Barring the bathroom jokes) It manages to be witty, hard, fun and unique all at once... Don't get me wrong, there are many faults . . . but there's something so right about your hair turning yellow as you slice people into pieces with a wishing-it-was lightsabre shouting 'Blueberry Cheesecake Brownie!', but that's just me, and I have a seriously damaged sense of humour.

Woah, that was like, long,

PS: There is a an ad on the side of this page that spells the word potential wrong, (potencial), it makes me a little afraid for that company. Just thought I'd throw that out there.
