Fine Arts and My Pet Cat

As some of you reading this blog will know, I'm insane, and such I decided to finish high-school early (reasons: because I could, and so I could go to Ambrose sooner =P ). So yeah, I've been working at school like crazy for the past year. The first 7-8 weeks of this school year were intense, in that amount of time I completed Geopraphy 12, Principles of Math 12, and portfolio...and passed all of them! Meanwhile last Tuesday my grad teacher phone's me up and says, "were you aware that you need a fine arts or applied skill credit to graduate?" This is where I started to go into a state of panick...You see, apparently I am very uncultured, as I had neither of these credits in any of my high school years...but there was one thing that could save me...my guitar. Wow, it's hailing outside...(completely unrelated, i know). Needless to say, the last couple of days have been pretty hectic, but I'll spare you the boring details and let you know that things finally worked out. At last, I finally meet graduation requirements, and I managed to get an 86% in Guitar 10, w00t!

As for my pet cat...his name is Seamus (Shay-mus), and he lives in our backyard. Well kinda, he keeps coming to our sliding glass door, he doesn't have a collar or anything, and he's always hungry. We fed him a couple of times (he eats dogfood!) and he's sooooo cute. Unfortunately my Dad is allergic to cat's (well any animal that sheds), so he can't come inside. Haha, when I was really young a cat that did the same thing (but in the middle of winter), and my Dad caved and we had a cat for a few years. I don't think it'll happen again. I just wish I could keep a cat at Ambrose...maybe I could disguise him as a fish...
