How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck cood Chuck Norris? All of it.
Chuck Norris doesn't shave. He roundhouse kicks himself in the face and scares the beard away.
My favorite Highland Games coming up tomorrow, Saturday, Fort Edmonton Highland Games. Fort Edmonton is so much fun, in a cool atmosphere. Playing the Medley, should be OK, if the junior pipers practised. (They better have). We moved up to Gr. 4 so hopefully we can win it. It sounded decent on Thursday. Weather should be nice. So I am this years "Most Promising Piper" and I got a trophy! I am pleased and surprised about that. Its the first time I have ever won a big trophy for myself. I have won trophys with teams before, but not myself. Its kind of amusing, because one of my current instructors won it the year before I was born. Haha. Band pictures tomorrow, so I should have my camera and post them.
Practises are now in "Summer Competetion Season Mode" so we are practising two nights a week. Oder, auf Deutsch, zweimal im Woche. I am quite happy to be able to speak German/Deutsch. I love using it everywhere.. I intend on going to University for German. People have asked me, what for.. I say, because I can. I want to. Some have suggested I become a teacher. I laughed at that. Me, a teacher. HA. Herr S. Wright.. Noooo way. it'd be like Herr. Vright. Sounds like fright haha. oh well. We'll see what happens with the economy.. The American Mortgage companies, the two largest, which account for half of the US's mortgages, or 3 TRILLION dollars. or by numbers, 3, 000, 000, 000, 000. TWELVE ZEROS! Basically, they're fucked. Hence, we're fucked. Thanks economy!
Speaking of University. I AM OFFICIALLY GRADUATED. Highest mark was German with a 92%. Second highest was Social with an 89%. Apparently, when I was dancing with some people, and talking to people, my German teacher, Frau, came up to my parents and said that I was her favorite student this past year. I am, to this day surprised. That was such an easy, but good course. I am talking about fuck all right now. I'm going to bed.
(SATURDAY JULY 12) SUCCESS! I added Tara on facebook. It seems that Eva knew her. I am lucky this time it seems. Hopefully I can get in touch.. She needs to accept yet. Haven't talked to my sister about going to UK/Europe in September yet though. Need to get on that, start planning. Go back to all those great places, see the Eder's again..
Got back from the Fort Edmonton Highland Games earlier.. That place has built some more attractions since I was there last year. Carnival, some squatters (acting, natually). Weather was beautiful. 25 the whole time, a tiny bit of clouds. Some breeze to cool it. Very busy! We got 3rd, but it was our best performance of the year so far. Hopefully we'll do even better in Calgary/Canmore in August.. the day after my birthday (the 30th is Calgary and 31st is Canmore). So I'll be legal.. and I can visit the beer tent legally! SWEET. Apparently we'll be partying- I mean celebrating, yes.. celebrating... the first night, so thats's something to look forward to. Plus apparently Calgary Canmore is the most fun competition of the year.. I have never been to it before, so I am excited. Also the band annouced that we will be going to SCOTLAND - GLASGOW for the WORLD PIPE BAND CHAMPIONSHIPS in 2010! We were novice juvinile champions in 2002. Can we do it again? I'm going to be staying in the band for then.. That will be 10 years with Edmonton Boys Pipe Band. John and I together, the whole way. Also I found the music to play De Camptown Races on my pipes! I haven't seen this in years! From way back when I went to Regina for a camp.. I think the second time.. in 03 I think it was.
Couple days later....
So Tara added me.. have not made 'contact' with her though. Went to my sisters place on monday and tuesday nights and we went to some movies, ate some yummy Pzones (I love those!!!) and then came back and did nothing.. That's enough I think.
Head Rush
Peace, and Rock on.
