The Bird and the Caterpillar

Nick told me a story, it's kinda lame, but kinda not.

So there was this caterpillar and he was worming around, "worm, worm, worm" and then this bird that was hungry and flying around, "fly, fly, fly" and then the bird bit the caterpillar's foot (OH NOES!) and then the caterpillar was all like "I WON'T MAKE YOU FULL DON'T EAT ME!" and the bird, being stupid was like "OKAY" and then the caterpillar and the bird were friends. One day the caterpillar went into his cocoon without telling the bird. The bird didn't know what to do, so he waited for his friend. Until one day, the caterpillar came out of his cocoon a changed man. He was a butterfly! The bird was like "Who are you? Where's my friend? Forget this!" and then he ate the butterfly...then he realized he had missed the butterfly and the fly was like "WAIT! LOOK!" and showed the bird the scar on his foot. And the world was happy again. so the moral of this story is that friendship made the bird more full than the caterpillar did.

Song

For yet another project, this time on environment, we get an issue from the teacher and then have to create a song about it to a tune of our choice. My issue was sustainability of water and what we in Canada can do to conserve water. My group decided to do it to the tune of 'Bad Romance' by Lady Gaga, don't ask me how THAT happened. I HATE singing, can't sing, don't enjoy it, don't like it. Don't even do it in private. And now she wants me to sing IN FRONT OF THE CLASS. Lame.
So here's our song:
O--------------
Drinkin' some bad water
O--------------
Drinkin' some bad water

Re-re-resevoirs
Cana-Canada
Get-get-get some now
World wants its water (Chorus X2)

They want your water, don't want no disease
They want your water, and they want it for free
They need your help, help, help, help
They need your help.

The population is getting too high
We're wasting water while they all go and cry
They need your help, help, help, help
They need your help

You know that you need it
So why do you waste it
Conserve it now, oh yes, right now

Ice caps melting and rivers to mud
Next to happen is our Prairies to flood
Aquifers are our greatest resource
Drain them all and we'll be full of remorse

O--------------
Drinkin' some bad water
O--------------
Drinkin' some bad water

Re-re-resevoirs
Cana-Canada
Get-Get-Get some now
World wants its water.

Turn off the tap while you're brushing your teeth
The water draining is the stuff that they need
They need your help, help, help, help
They need your help

Oil Spills and chemical leaks
What the lakes get is not what they need
They need your help, help, help, help
They need your help

You know that you need it
So why do you waste it
Conserve it now, oh yes, right now

Ice caps melting and rivers to mud
Next to happen is our Prairies to flood
Aquifers are our greatest resource
Drain them all and we'll be full of remourse

O-------
Drinkin' some bad water
O-------
Drinkin' some bad water

Re-re-resevoirs
Cana-canada
Get-get-get some now
World wants its water

Rain, rain collect it baby
With it irrigate like crazy
Rain, rain collect it baby
With it irrigate like crazy
Rain, rain collect it baby
With it irrigate like crazy
Rain, rain collect it baby
Check it, I sustain it baby

World wants its water, from it don't take
World wants its water, don't make it wait
Le monde veut son eau
N'en prend pas, le monde veut son eau
Don't make it wait.

Worry Wart.

Do you ever have that foreboding feeling? Like you're worried about something but can't remember what it is you're worried about? That's how I feel today, it's like a have a huge project that I have to present, all the butterflies and everything. I don't like it, I wish I knew what the feeling was about. As if I'm not stressed out enough, now I can't even remember WHY I'm stressed out! Hopefully, I either remember why I'm worried, or find out I was worrying about nothing. I need a remembrall from Harry Potter - I sympathize with Neville...
