Listening to: the sound of half my prep class playing bingo (not the kind old people play)
Worried about: Frigging french orals tomorrow!!!
Bonjour tout le monde!!!
My prep class is mucho grande noisy tonight but I'm not gonna tell them to keep it down. This is our form of rebelling the fact that we STILL have to go for prep even when exams are over. The teachers need to take a hint....
The past few days of my life have been quite fun!! Saturday, I dressed up as Jan Di from Boys Before Flowers for the fashion show we had for entertainment. Luckily, I didnt get punished for wearing a short skirt until what happened 2 years ago...
Sunday, I just chilled out and went to SOS for their Pan-African Night Market. It was loads of fun. I tried this really cool Ethiopian dish which was quite yummy. I dont know what it was called though. And I saw Micheal (Yipee!!!) and he gave me some really nice blue and purple beads. And once again, I got that nagging feeliing in me that I should have gone to SOS. Oh well...
Today was a holiday (African Union Day) and the Pan-African club organized a sale. We sold kelewele, ice cream, coconuts and condensed milk toffee (when I get home, I'm making truckloads of that thing and eating it all by my alone). We made 250 ghc!!!! The music was soley African so I heard all of my fave songs like Mo Gbono Feli Feli, Azonto and the Pigaro club mix!!
So after this much fun, I'm absolutely dreading first period French tommorow. Not to mention see some of my exam papers in which I did absolutely badly!! (I have to start making excuses for my parents.). And the cherry on the cake- French orals. I'm gonna be soooo depressed tommorow....

In which the most awesome epiphany was had!!! :-P
In the: Biology lab
Worried about: getting a flipping compiler!!!!
(follow me on twitter! www.twitter.com/sedirox)
Do me a favour-don't ask me how my exams went. It's just been one disaster after the other. My only OK-ish paper was English. Followed by Geog paper 1. Don't get me started on Math... I was kinda sick already... and I failed. miserably.
I had a really awesome epiphany on Friday. My life long aspiration is to be a renowned video game designer like Shigeru Miyamoto. But to say "I want to be a video game designer" to anyone who asks is kinda... well... sounds off-ish. So, I decided that instead I'll say "I want to be a computer programmer" which does sound kinda cool. And, if all goes well, I'll be a computer programmer by the end of the year. Right now, I'm in the process of learning C++ (hence the need for a compiler) So if someone asks me sometime next year what I want to be, I'll say "A computer programmer but I'm already one" S-O-H-A-C-K-I-N-G-C-O-O-L!!!!!!!
According to my countdown timer, I have 17 days, 0 hours, 10 minutes and 40 seconds until summer!!! (6th June!!!!!) And then...my last year of high school. The IB2's are leaving this week. I'm gonna miss some of them so much it's not even funny... Lucie, Myma, Marcelle, Ashley, Lana.... v.v Can't wait for my graduation. Michael has promised to design my dress for me so that means, it's gonna be off the hook!!! Yayness!!!!
Ok, I'm gonna go wallow in self pity cause my Extended Essay is still giving me hassle. I have to go for a police scanning tommorow.
P.S. my favorite couple broke up. Well, not like they were going out. I just used to see them together a lot and I really liked it. Now, I hardly see them together...

Savior of the village!
Listening to: Jai Ho by the Pussycat Dolls
Drinking: Orange juice
Thinking about: Twilight. I need to watch it again!!
I just got a sudden realization: It's been almost a year since my latest crush which officially lasted about 3 weeks but lingered on for a while. The... weird?... annoying?... random?...let's go with random...The random thing about it is the fact I started liking him on his birthday. Random huh? Well, I guess that's what maked it different. And I can comfortably say that out of all the 5 crushes I've had, he was the best. So let's just say I'm kinda glad I freefell. 2 days before his b'day, I knew what was gonna happen. I told myself "Sedi, you cannot get a crush at this crucial point in time of your life. Besides, you know what will happen to you at the end of the day." My IG's were only a few days away and I knew it would end badly. I always end up hurt.I guess that's why they're called crushes. But did I listen. Noooooo. I fell. Quite bad actually.
But you know what hurts? All the time I liked him, he actually liked someone else. When I found out, naturally, I was quite upset. He didn't know I liked him so I can't really blame him much. Funnily enough, we actually like a couple anytime we were together. Holding hands, laughing,hugging...gosh it was all so cute!!! The Se-rah told me that he liked someone else. That was when the process of forgetting began but it took a long time. It still lingers but it's not as strong. Sometimes I'll look at him and be like "Can someone please tell me why I had a crush on this dude?" Granted, he's a nice guy, but sometimes I just wonder... Now I think he likes this other girl and anytime I see them together, I get really happy. And I mean happy. Jeani and Myma think I'm delusional but I just think I'm glad he's moving on. Since he is, I don't have to tell him, right?
And besides, I gotta concentrate on more importanter stuff in my life. Like G.A.M.I.N.G.!!! My half-sis Amy got married last week and my dad went to Utah for the wedding. I felt that my gaming had become very one-sided *coughGuitarHerocough* so I need to come back down to earth. And what better way to do that than to get a game that has been critically acclaimed by everyone-Okami. I started it last night and it's really good. The one thing I love about it it the fact that the graphics are like Old Japanese paintings. Tres fantastique!!! I'm gonna play it when I'm done here!!!
So now my half-sis is married and my family had expanded!!! My dad was telling me stories and they sound so well-behaved and nice. Gosh, I really wish I had gone!! It sounded like it was so much fun!! *sigh* School sucks!!
Exams are coming up *yuck* Which involves a lot of studying *yuck* and I still haven't done my EE! Sucks even more!! Wish me luck v.v

No longer special!!!!
In the: computer lab with Grace and Elsie
Worrying about: my math quiz tomorrow and my Extended Essay
Excited about: My half-sis's wedding this Saturday!!!!!!!!!
Worrying about: my math quiz tomorrow and my Extended Essay
Excited about: My half-sis's wedding this Saturday!!!!!!!!!
L is for the way you look at her
O is for the only one you see
V is very very very happy-making
E is even more than anyone that you adore can...
Ok, sorry about that. It's just that since Friday, I've been seeing some individuals together a lot and it's just made me really happy. You would think that I'm jealous or something but I'm not. Honest! I'm just really happy about it. I saw the two of them together and my world immediately became right again. I asked Rita yesterday if anything was going on between the two of them but she said no. I begged her to just lie to me and tell me that there was something going on but she said nothing was going on. She even said that the guys doesnt like the girl and the girl likes someone else. Well, I really hope that the guys really likes the girl cause I dont mind too much if the girl likes someone else. If the guy didn't like anyone, I would become upset. Again.
So.... My grade has already started planning for the funfair for next semester. It's called Super Nova and I'm in charge of the Games Room! More Guitar Hero!!! I want a really creative name for it. Something having to do with the galaxy. Maybe Venus or something. But I know we'll have the usual stuff like console and what not but I want to do something uber creative with the place. I'll have this summer to come up with stuff.
Oh man I can't wait for summer!!! I know it's a bit of a long way off but still!!! My summer itinery has been planned out: I leave for Dubai a week after school vacates, spend 2 days there, go to Brimignham for the Rotary Convention, then go to London for a few days then take the Eurostar to France and spend about 3 weeks in Paris with Edna, take the Eurostar back to London with Edna this time, back to Dubai and then home sweet Accra!!! Bummer I'm not going to the US though... I don't mind too much...
I'm just recovering from a serious sickness bout. I had karate on Friday and because I hadnt done it in so long, I was aching from head to toe afterwards. Then I had dance practice for entetainment after my SRC meeting until 1am. I woke up Saturday morning and had a sore throat and cough in addition to my aching body. But I was still able to dance for entertainment. We had this rep your country thing and my grade got Jamaica so you can just imagine the kind of dances we had to do. We tied first with the Grade 9's but then there was a fight and a dance battle and they won. I slept for an hour, watched Space Jam and fell asleep again. Woke up tired and still aching Sunday morning with cramps this time. Dozed through church and spent the rest of the day on my bed listening to music and watching The Colbert Report. Monday, still kinda has cramps and still kinda ached but it was ok. Now I'm as fit as a fiddle!!! Oh yeah, I also had a cold the WHOLE weekend too!!!
I'm really upset that I can't go for my half-sis's wedding thiss weekend. I havent seen her in almost 2 years and she doesnt reply to my emails!!! Gosh!! My dad left (or is leaving) today for the wedding in Utah. My mum isnt going but mu uncle and a few of my dad's friends are. They better take pictures so I can see them when I go for my IB exeat.
Lacuna Coil's new album Shallow Life is in stores now!!!! Can't wait to get it from iTunes!!!!!

Chez moi!!
Listening to: Joy FM
Glad to be: home!!!
Looking forward to: the beach!!!!
So even though mid term was about 3 weeks ago, I'm still really glad to be home!!!! And lucky I don't have any report to show or any form of homework apart from my Extended Essay which I don't mind too much. MORE CHILLINGS!!!!!
Okey dokey y'all. April Fools' day was Epic Fail with a capital E and F. See, I did research the day before and found the Oreo-and-toothpaste joke. I tried it at snack but no one believed me. My best trick was the one I played on Nana Adu-Kofi. He came to me and asked me for Heroes episode 21 and I casually told him I had it so I put it on his laptop for him. In actual fact, I gave him Kevin Pereira's video "808 and Expiration dates" with the file name "Heroes 21". He fell for it!!! He tracked me down in the computer lab and really gave it to me. I laughed my head off the whole time. I also tricked my sis Eli. She wanted a song, Runaway by Styl-Plus and I told her I had it but in actual fact, I just renamed Chocolate Rain by Tay Zonday to that. She was so upset.... LOL!!!
One of the things I dislike about being a college-bound student are the arguments I have to encounter with my parents. I just got home and I had this disagreement with my mum about standardized tests. I wrote the ACT last week and now she wants me to do SAT AND ACT again cause she thinks not all schools accept ACT and she also thinks that the ACT is and add-on to SAT. She got me really fired up that my good mood kinda died. Now I have to have the same discussion with my dad which is likely gonna be worse...
So much stuff has happened in school this past few weeks that has made me realize how extremely lucky I am. Priscilla mentioned it some time. I hardly have anything to worry about. My grades are good, my friends are good too, almost nobody talks about me behind my back, I'm liked by almost everyone... and I realized that it's really true. And I'm eternally grateful for that. But funnily enough, some people can't understand why I've never dated before. Myma was really shocked when she found out. She said I'm really pretty and I have a really great personality but why? I told her that it's only this academic year that boys have started taking me seriously. But whatever....
OH!!! I gotta go!! Beach time!!

... huh?
Researching: On a good Extended Essay topic in Math
Gosh! I've only been back in school for a week and I have soo much work to do! IB is hell y'all!!
Anyway, I don't wanna think too much about it or I'll get depressed. But not much has happened on my social side. Eli's birthday was on Monday, Francine's birthday was on Wednesday and Jemima's birthday in 8 days!!! Gotta think of something good for her!!
Not much to talk about just wanted to update for the sake of updating!!

Everybody's going to the party have a real good time
Listening to: Angel Cry by Corbin Bleu
Quite liking: Pink Panther 2. It was hilarious!!
One of the things I love doing on Facebook is reading people statuses!!! Almost everyone's on about the UEFA Champions League. I randomly watched one of the matches yesterday. AC Roma vs Aresenal. Arsenal won. Like it affects me....
So anyway, past few days have been crazy! I went to Erika's on Tuesday and now my nails glow in the dark!!! And I finally had my guitar battle with Ellis and I lost miserably... making me the 2nd best Guitar Hero player in school...yay?
Yesterday, I had lunch with Ewuradjoa. After all the plenty noise we made about not going to the mall, we went after lunch.... When I came home I had to go visit some relative with my mum. Fun? Yup!
Today, I saw Pink Panther 2 with Eli, Jeani and her sis Steffi. It was hilarious!! And now I have to do my uni research and I WILL NOT GO TO BED UNLESS I GET SOMEWHERE WITH MY FRENCH PRESENTATION!!!!! MUAHAHAHA!!
And I NEED to get my software update!! Internet, don't fail me now!! I wanna use the new Safari...
And and (again!) I think I'm back in love with Corbin Bleu!! His new album rocks!! sigh sigh sigh!!
