Hockey blogging and a whole bunch of snotty tissues

I'm staying home from school today. It's 11:08, so I've missed my 2 hours of French and now the first hour of etude. But really I'm just going to miss a few FLE lessons, Spanish and math. Not so bad. I sort of got better, but I think it's good that I'm staying home. I mean, this way, the other kids won't be at risk, I can fully get better, whereas if I went to school I could get more germs. And I am pretty tired. My brain is sluggish. And, quite frankly, sometimes it's good to take a break from such a school that makes Slauson look like elementary school. In other words, its good to take a break from a school you pretty much hate.

I went to bed early, after failing to take a pill. I dunno why, but I just cannot take pills. My body just says "no" or whatever. It sort of sucks. But I did use this nostril spray stuff that cleared my nose a little. When I woke up I felt really sluggish. The kind where you can go into the kitchen to get a bowl of cereal but end up like staring at the spoon in your hand for a few minutes before you finally realize what you're doing. I read my USA Hockey Magazine while eating and it was cool. I use the pictures after I read them to make like collages and stuff. So its cool. It had this article in it, which was actually quite interesting. Even for you not-exactly-hockey-fan people. According to Ted Leonsis (see article),

A blog can be entertaining, it can be informational, and it can be enlightening. But the most important part of a blog is that it can be activating. It allows others to look at your thoughts and follow your life and then launch their own ideas, comments and perspectives on what you've seen and done. In short, your personal blog is a way to leave your footprints in the sand.

Along with that article, they gave us a list of 10 great hockey blogs. I'll add some of them in the blogs area I s'pose.

I guess I should be doing my homework shouldn't I? I have like... math, Spanish, English and chemistry. Sigh. I've been using a TON of tissues. I have huge piles around everywhere. 9 months doesn't seem that long. 3/4 of a year. Only 3 seasons really. And life goes on, you know? Time happens. Crap happens.

I might be back with another post today, 'cause I'll probably be bored. And writing (blogging) is a good outlet. Hope you guys don't get sick. I like sneezing sometimes though.
