Happy April Fool’s Day, everyone! Did you know that in France today is known as Poisson D’Avril? It means April Fish. In France, on April 1st, everyone makes fish out of paper and writes ‘Poisson D’Avril’ on them and then stick them to people’s backs. We did that in French class when I was in high school.
So happy Poisson D’Avril from me, Weasley, and Moony! And stick a fish on someone’s back….
I will get pics of Moony at some point.
Spring Break is over. Back to the grind tomorrow. I have to be at school at 8am to work on a group project for English. Now, we go straight through to the end of the semester with no more vacations. That’s 7 more weeks. 7 more weeks and then I graduate!
I had a good break, though. Didn’t get much homework done, but whatever. I did manage to read all but the last chapter in this really boring book I’m reading for sociology. It’s all about the conservative view of Social problems, and I’m very liberal.
Other than that, I cleaned out both of my fish tanks, knitted, spent a lot of time going online, wrote a good bit of fan fiction, read a lot of fan fiction, and attempted to do my calculus homework. Attempt being the key word. I don’t remember how to do it at all. That’s what I get for saving it for the last day. Oh, well, I bet the whole class didn’t know how to do it. We’re also probably getting our tests back tomorrow, not looking forward to that.
Every year the local newspaper has this contest where you make a diorama out of Peeps. I’ve never entered before, but this year my siblings and I decided to do it. We made Professor Snape’s Potions class. It was fun to make. We made it entirely out of food. The cauldrons are these little brownies they sell where I work. We gouged out the insides of them and put melted marshmallow with food coloring in them to be potion.
But we didn’t win. Oh, well. Here are some pics.
We also dyed some Easter eggs. I made a Gryffindor one, a Slytherin one, and a duck one using this plastic thing that you put around the egg.
And at work last night, I bought some cheap Easter candy. I love when all the candy goes on sale. All the bulk Easter candy was 99 cents a pound, so I got a pound of that. Plus a couple truffle filled chocolate eggs that were only 89 cents down from $7. Good deal.
