I discovered Suneohair through Honey&Clover (Waltz was and will be my ringtone forever and ever), though more of you might know him by Arakawa (ed 1&2). Regardless he is awesome and deserve to be known more ;D

すれ違うばかりの通りに
響かない乾いた声
ちょうどノイズと無音の真中
そんな感じ
並んだ影は
混ざり合ってるけど
染みこむように薄らいで
消えてる
思うよりも早く世界はまわってる
急がなきゃこのままここで
ぼやいてる時間も無いさ
知らない誰かの噂で
気づけば踏み場も無いほど
それでも夕暮れ色づいて
優しく包んでみせる
高い鉄塔の上に吹いてる
遠くから来る風に
飛んで行きたいな
すごいスピードで
瞬きも出来ずに
まるで時間は止まってる
間違い無く動いている
思うよりも遥か
遠くに霞んでる
昨日を思うよりも
すぐに明日がやってくる
ああ 君はどんな空を見てるだろう
すれ違い紛れてく中に一人
そう どこで何を考えてるだろう
空は青く深く色を変えてゆくさ
そう 僕らが思うよりも早く
世界はまわってる
急がなきゃこのままで
止まってもいられないな
すごいスピードで
瞬きも出来ずに
まるで時間は止まってる
間違い無く動いている
ああ 君はどんな空を見てるだろう
すれ違い紛れてく中に一人
そう どこで何を考えてるだろう
空は青く深く色を変えてゆくさ

4U
First week of grade 12 has gone by and I have not made a post about the subject. Bit of a problem as I had the plans to document my struggles and triumph as the end of my highschool days approach.
So far it hasn't been as busy as I anticipated, mostly because Advance Functions is barely past review stages. Still doing my homework diligently ;D One improvement over the previous years is that I'm not skipping over questions in which my answer doesn't match the textbooks. My hypothesis is that if I check homework more carefully, I will be able to do so on tests and avoid getting marks off from negative signs.
Clubs have yet to pick up either. Planning to dramatically concentrate my efforts this year in Engineering Club and WCC. I will, for sure, not have useless meetings in engineering and have more in club events (shad being the inspirations for a lot of them, thank you so much for sunday engineering challenges).
Speaking of shad (and I will be continuing to talk about that for soooo long to come, it's actually really close to a life changing experience that I'm only beginning to truly appreciate), I really miss being in a room where every single person tries to make the most of out of whatever's currently happening. The positivity really feeds off one another, I remember people going to their 3rd choice seminars and coming back the very least not bored. Heck I even paid full attention in biology focused lectures which I would otherwise just tune out at school. Though attention is not a concern this year as 7/8 courses are electives which I'm interested in.
I've gone off topic, the reason why I brought this up is because in shad (reason why my house group had so much conflict), or even enriched English last year, it doesn't feel awkward raising your hand and talking all the time. But in the science classes that I really like and want to ramble on and on in, I'm thinking "how many questions should go by before it's not awkward again to answer". As my current English would say, it's not students fault but rather the education system etc etc etc (this is a whole discussion for another day).
...blah don't think the above paragraph is an accurate representation of what I have in my head. This is another really big problem, I have trouble expressing myself when it comes to my opinions. Perhaps this is how my impression of uncaring formed to Alex, maybe I subconsciously avoid having to express opinions. Problem acknowledged and will work towards problem fixed.
go second week gooooo.

17 years
So the year has revolved again to the day of my birth.
The specialness wears off bit by bit every time haha. It's still loads of fun celebrating with friends&family, and using it as leverage against them ;D
And so, since it is my birthday today, I ask thee to listen to this awesome and ridiculously catchy song about physics ;D
(Jason told me to do something fun rather than chem hmwrk, so blame him)
and also listen to Richard Feynman (maaaaajor contribution to physics) talk!

this summer
So what do I do on the last day of summer vacation? Anticipate Final Fantasy Versus XIII.
The song is fantastic *u*
Shall lessen the pains of waiting with XIII and XIII-2 (which you will get right Sean? ;D).
In more productive terms, I'm all ready for school in terms of supplies.
Tis the year of sticky notes and quality writing instruments (in which the lazy me has resorted to Staedler and Sakura fine liners).

shopping ban until boxing day
^don't think that's toooo unrealistic.
Recent damages:
From PMall trip/two people shad reunion with Cynthia ;D
Totoro bag for school! A surprisingly good find from Smart Maple. It's roomy, shows an aspect of my interests, and durable enough to survive me launching it across the hallway :]
The folder has a panda AND four leaf clover, how could I say no?
From a highly productive shopping trip with my mom. It's so much more relaxing shopping with parents haha.
Thick grey cardigan from Zara, think red cardigan from Esprit (could have gotten a cheaper one from Zara as well...), tights from Smart Set, and shorts from AE (40% off yuhhh).
I realized the majority of the items are grey. This is not helping my predominately black & white clothing, which perhaps can be an excuse for some colourful scarf shopping (after boxing day of course).
Desert boots from Aldo.
Was deciding between these or combat boots, decided on the latter but ended up with the former. Productive.
Anyways I loveeeee them ;D The heel provide a nice height boost while being low enough that it feels like walking with a flat shoe. Been wanting a pair of suede shoes for a while too, they look and feel very nice. Only downside is that the material is extremely high maintenance, this baby isn't going anywhere near rough weather conditions. Though it's good practice for me to take care of my stuff for the day in the distant future that I have enough discretionary income to purchase luxury goods.

Researcher1
The last day of internship started off beautifully with a seemingly molten sun peaking over the horizon.
Going to miss watching the sunrise every morning.
The day was a perfectly normal day, going through resumes on Monster and digging through LinkedIn for the darn lead roles. Been working on those roles for well over a week and I can swear that I've gone through almost every civil engineer with mining experience in North America. Alas I still couldn't find a good fit for the position.
Although the tasks I do aren't the most exciting, I did learn soooo much about resume writing. It pains me so much having to read through and extract information from badly formatted and worded resumes. Please don't be one of those people, I have to read through them, but your hiring manager will just toss it right out.
So as a reminder to us all, here are what you should never ever do.

operation SUCCESS!
I am very, very happy to say that after 2 unsuccessful trips downtown, Grace and I was finally able to eat the shepherd's pie again!
Memory has slightly exaggerated how good it tastes, but it was still quite delicious :] Plus it's a hugeee portion for less than a combo at fast food restaurants!
Went to visit a family friend's office in the heart of the financial district afterwards. It has quite the view of the downtown.
Looking up Yonge St.
More towards the lakeshore.
