<p>My show and tell went HORRIBLY. I’ve probably never sounded so stupid in my life. I didn’t have any idea what I was saying. Luckily, the girl that went before me gave the worst show and tell possible. During her 10 minutes, she talked for about two minutes. The rest of the time, she was just muttering phrases in English, translating in her head, doing this weird nervous head-bob thing, or saying “ummmmmmmmm. Hehehehe!” I was just about ready to destroy something by the end of her presentation. I don’t even know the topic of her presentation. It was that bad.</p>
<p>Canadian, be happy you don’t have to care about the relevance of Maryland to colonial religious tolerance.</p>
<p>Ah, yes. I heard about that whole Parliament dissolving business. I read it in The Economist. I don’t think I actually read the article though.</p>
<p>Stephen Harper is a conservative. What is considered “conservative” in Canada? It would probably be considered liberal in the US.</p>
<p>I just saw a British guy on the Food Network named Stuart Claxton. Is it possible to have a more British name than that?</p>
<p>Rupert Davies is much more British than that.</p>
<p>No it isn’t. “Davies” ruins it. Charles Rupert Claxton III is rather British.</p>
<p>Davies is an incredibly British name. Fine. </p>
<p>Rupert Granger. Rupert Weasley. RUPERT POTTER.</p>
<p>Haha, I love this article.</p>

<p>“Conservative” in Canada is similar to “conservative” in England. It mostly means that the party is for the privatization of a lot of public services (health care, for instance) and is more in favor of a free market economy. At the other end of the spectrum is the New Democratic Party (NDP) which is the most socialist major party in Canada. They rarely get over about 20% of votes, though. In the middle is the Liberal party.</p>
<p>In most parts of Canada, the Conservatives and the Liberals are the most popular parties. The only major exception is that in Quebec, the Bloc Quebecois has considerable influence.</p>
<p>How Canadian.</p>
<p>I want to slap Roger Williams.</p>
<p>I have three essays to do. Or not.</p>
<p>YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS</p>
<p>Good news has befallen me.</p>
<p>What’s the good news?</p>
<p>I now officially have over 100 volunteer hours.</p>
<p>It sounds so underwhelming now.</p>
<p>I have around 300.</p>
<p>Congratz. </p>
<p>My team won the gym softball championship today. Yeah, that’s right. Totally going under special awards on my apps.</p>
<p>I suck at softball.</p>
<p>I don’t if 100 hours is good or not. I suppose it’s good for the people I volunteered for.</p>
<p>That’s the spirit! It is about helping people, not college apps, right?;)</p>
<p>My volunteering is minimal, but at least I have fun when I do.</p>
<p>I suppose it’s ehh. And your exclamation points are unnecessary.</p>
<p>I need to go find a soup kitchen.</p>
<p>My sarcastic exclamation points are completely necessary.</p>
<p>Soup kitchen’s are so stereotypical.</p>
