Reporting LIVE from Maths Class

I should not have cut my hair so short. I can not even make it into a ponytail now and it is getting in my face. Maybe a few hair clips will help me. No. They make me look so childish. I should have bought hair pins yesterday. Actually, I think it will be better if I do not put my hair back because when I do, it makes my cheeks look fat and puffy. I wish I had my long hair back.
"You ready yet?" I hear a loud nosy voice shout. It is Ritsuka, my roommate. We met a few days ago, just before school started. In fact, I am glad that I got a chance to meet someone before school starts since I do not know anyone in this high school. Sometimes I worry that I will not find any friends this year. Will I be on my own for three whole years? Will I be one of these loners who eat lunch on their own and spend most of their time reading? Horrifying scenarios run through my mind as I am still adjusting my fringe in front of the mirror. I look into my own eyes and remind myself of the advantages of not having friends. I mean, I spent months studying to get into this high school and I have never imagined the fact that a simple girl like me would ever end up in Tokyo. I came here to study and not to cry over the fact that I do not have friends. I am fine by myself and I do not need anyone.

I wrote something!

I spent this whole evening writing a very long story of four pages!!! It is complete nonesence so I will not publish it.
I also have to write about my last act of kindness. Well.... I let Rosa copy my biology homework. Does that count as an act of kindness?

Favourite movies?

I don't really have any movies that I never get sick of watching. I guess I never get tired of watching a russian animated series called Smeshariki (yes, I'm fifteen years old and I still enjoy children's cartoons). I think it's because I really love the sense of humour in these cartoons since it is all like a big inside joke that only Russian people can understand. The cartoons have translated into English and are called Kikoriki, but the translation made the characters loose their clever sense of humour and they are not that funny in English. 
Another movie I can watch over and over again is probably Spirited Away because it is simply the best animated film ever! 
Speaking of cartoons I just realised that I can never get tired of watching Soviet cartoons. They make me nostalgic and remind me of my early childhood. I remember I showed some of them to Yasmin and both of us started crying. 
I think will also have to mention Tangled because whenever my cousin and I get together we secretly watch it during the night (along with Spirited Away).
I think that's pretty much it. (My film preferences are like so mature haha)

Dem childhood memoriz

Best childhood memory? Lemme think... Surprisingly, I can't think of a particular memory that really stands out. *stares at the wall for 20 mins* Ok. After some reflection I finally found something that I remember quite well.
When I was seven, eight and nine years old I would spend the three months of my summer holiday in Montenegro. My aunt and my cousins (Egor and Vasjok) would come to stay with us for about two weeks and, as you can probably guess, it was a whole lot of fun. We would go around the village by ourselves, not giving a damn, stuffing ourselves with ice cream and kinder surpsises. Our parents would send us to bring water from a water spring that was located quite close to our house. We called it the "Saint water source" since we would often find pilgrims, filling huge canisters with water from the spring. My cousins and I loved going there since it seemed like an adventure to us. We also found it fun because we would often see cows and sheep on the street, returning from the mountains after a hot summer day at the field. I remember that there were a lot of donkeys too. During the day they would be found by piles of trash at the lay-bys of the rocky roads of the village and at nighttime you would sometimes be woken up by the sound of donkeys screaming (it's terrifying, trust me). I used to own a huge box of cassettes when I was younger and every summer, it was the first thing that I packed in my suitcase. Vasjok and I loved listening to them and would reenact the scenes from, what you would now call, audiobooks that we listened to. I also had a lot of magazines with me. Most of them were from the previous summers and seemed old and ancient to us. One time, my dad gave me a lot of DVDs of horror movies. Egor and I (vasjok was too scared) would buy as much popcorn as we could and watch them in the dark. I remember Vasjok would get angry at us because we didn't want to play with her. I guess sunbathing shirtless and listening to rap on Egor's SonyEricsson was more entertaining to me and Egor. I forgot to mention that we also had quite a large collection of kinder surprise toys. We would trade them amongst the three of us and pretend to fight with one another. We also made catapults and weapons out of plasticine and were planning to have a major battle between our kinder surprise toys, but that never happened because summer was over, we left and never came back to that house again.

Favourite quotes

Today is the 2nd of March so I have to post my favourite quotes. Here they are: 
- I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.
- I want to have a social life, but I hate people too much.
- I don't like morning people. Or mornings. Or people.
- Why fall in love when you can fall asleep?
- Religion is like a penis. It's fine to have one. It' shine to be proud of it. But don't whip it out in public and please don't try to shove it down my children's throats. 
- A diplomat is someone who can tell you to go to hell in such a way that you will actually look forward to the trip.
- I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way so I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness.
- Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go.
- Children: You spend the first two years of their life teaching them to walk and talk. Then you spend the next sixteen telling them to sit down and shut up.
- I think I might be emotionally constipated because I haven't given a shit in days.
These are the ones I can remember. There are many more, but I just can't think of them right now.

I survived!!!!!

It's the first day of spring today! Can you believe it? We have survived winter!!!! My birthday is very soon and I just can't wait!
Today is also the first day of Sonysashtag and I have to post a self portrait and five random facts about myself. How is this for a self portrait? I'm  probably the most non-photogenic person you'll ever meet so I drew myself instead. It's pretty accurate, huh?
So here are the 5 random facts:
- I almost never have an opinion of my own, so if you ever ask me a "yes or no" question I will probably respond with "I don't know".
- I love drawing people or faces and I absolutely adore graphite pencils.
- I don't believe in the statement "money can't buy happiness". The person who came up with that was trying to be deep and thoughtful, but if you look at our society now, you realise that you can't be happy without money.
- I'm used to people who talk about me behind my back and I don't mind it because it happens way too often.
- I don't know what I want to do when I'm older or what kind of job I would like to have. I also have no clear goals or targets.
