"Far And Away" is such a fabulous movie (and song). Muahahaha. And Tom Cruise was so young and innocent(-ish)and IRISH. There should be more Irish actors. (YES, I realise he's not actually Irish.) Come to think of it, there should be more Scottish actors. Anyway...
Christie kindly informed me today that I'm also going to be depressed for her wedding because being home will suck. And I can see that happening considering I became depressed coming back from a week of camp. Oh well, I have survived most of grade 12 in depression or near depression so I should be able to handle a month or so. Yeh, hopefully. We'll have to have a partay when I come back or I'm going to die of boredom and sadness.
And the Math final today was so much easier than I was expecting. It was beautiful. Despite the fact that vectors still kill me. I don't know what's so hard about them, I know in grade 11 I could do them. I was looking over my notes yesterday, I was just good at everything back then. So much has changed, alas, not for the better. But oh well, the exams are much less stressful so far than I was imagining so good stuff. Although that's to be expected since I tend to be rather pessimistic. Final exams in Northern Ireland (or at least the East Coast-ish area of Nor'n Ireland) start on May 24th. Did you know that? Is that not unfair? Oh well, they're probably harder than our finals anyway. Well, harder than our final finals, probably not harder than our IB finals. But I don't know. Hmmm. Finals are just all dumb. Anyway, I should be going to study now. Laterz! :D
Ok, one last thing. We need to start calling soccer football and then during the transition it will turn into footie. And then everything will be set. Because footie is such a great name. And it will help me in remaining alive while I'm in England as I wont be offending anyone or their football then. So long as I don't call them European. Although, if they keep calling me American I think it's a fair trade-off. What's so bad about being European anyway? It's not like people calling you something makes you that way.
Far and Away-Enya
English & Irish Gaelic

One day, one night, one moment,
my dreams could be, tomorrow.
One step, one fall, one falter,
east or west, over earth or by ocean.
One way to be my journey,
this way could be my Book of Days.
Ó lá go lá, mo thuras,
an bealach fada romham.
Ó oíche go hoíche, mo thuras,
na scéalta nach mbeidh a choích.

No day, no night, no moment,
can hold me back from trying.
I'll flag, I'll fall, I'll falter,
I'll find my day may be, Far and Away.
Far and Away.

One day, one night, one moment,
with a dream to believe in.
One step, one fall, one falter,
and a new earth across a wide ocean.
This way became my journey,
this day ends together, Far and Away.
This day ends together, Far and Away.
Far and Away.
