Get excited!

BONJOUR.
So I just finished my morning cup of tea; and it was delicious. Caffeine free, and improves mental performance and concentration. Can't get much better than that, can it? Here's whats up:

Since I take online high school classes through Keystone National HS, I decided not to take a foreign language. My mother said it was extremely difficult to learn a language online. I took her advice and I'm waiting until I'm back onto a real campus to take French: the international Culinary language. Usually, you're supposed to take a foreign language your sophomore year. Seeing as I'm a junior and have had no experience in French, I decided to buy a book that would help me to learn the language. I must say it's coming along fabulously. Ever since I was a child, I could impersonate a French accent very well. I spoke in it a lot because the language fascinated me. That makes the strange nasal sounds heard all throughout the language very accessible for me to achieve. Why, just the other day during my shift at the Bruster's, I said "Bonjour." to a customer. She gave me a confused look and asked me IN FRENCH if I was from France. Being able to make an actual French person think that I was French goes down in my Book Big of Wins. As for getting onto a "real" campus, I'm putting my application in for Gwinnett Tech soon. I filled it out last night, I'm just waiting for my transcripts to arrive in the mail. I'm going to take my core classes there, so that when I get to The Culinary Institute of America I can mainly focus on the culinary classes. To say the least, I'm excited.

Another thing I'm excited for it this Saturday. What's happening this Saturday?! You mean you haven't heard? IT'S PJ DAY!. On PJ Day, the scoopers at the Bruster's get to wear their pajamas while they work, and all of the customers get a free single scoop of ice cream in a waffle cone if they wear their pajamas to the store. How cool is that? I don't know why that excites me so much. Maybe it's because a heckload of my friends are coming to visit me. Hell's bells, it's going to be crazy.


Also, my daffodil garden is blooming, and there's an all white flower. It looks so pretty among all the other yellow daffodils. Daffodils are my favorite flower in the world.

"Daffodils" (1804)

I WANDER'D lonely as a cloud

That floats on high o'er vales and hills,

When all at once I saw a crowd,

A host, of golden daffodils;

Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine

And twinkle on the Milky Way,

They stretch'd in never-ending line

Along the margin of a bay:

Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they

Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:

A poet could not but be gay,

In such a jocund company:

I gazed -- and gazed -- but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie

In vacant or in pensive mood,

They flash upon that inward eye

Which is the bliss of solitude;

And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

By William Wordsworth (1770-1850)
