Got my project week form done!
So, apologies to all for not posting in a long time, I've been fairly busy with National Day and Project Week, which I am about to tell you about. So, myself and Noah have been planning to do project week together for a long time, like since the first week, and we were thinking, and I don't know where this came from, that we would like to go into a big city, and hang out with Street Musicians. So, we didn't really have much more of an idea than that, so we put that down on our proposal and said, "eh, we'l work out the details later". Eileen, the teacher in charge of projects, vetoed it, but didn't tell us untill the day after proposals were due, so we thought we had missed our chance to do a project this week, and would have to do it next February, when Noah already has tickets booked home. So, we begged her, and she gave us 24 hours to come up with something new, so I stayed up untill 2:30 last night, emailing every private and public school, and every charitable organization in about a twenty mile radius (actually, as far as the buses run), saying something along the lines of "Dear God, we're in trouble, help!", and have gotten replies from about 14 so far, along the lines of "Sure, we can use you!". So, now we're kind of "Who do we go with?" right? So we're looking through them, and we find one from the Greater Victoria Youth Orchestra, who are performing their big end of term concert the 30th, and need a lot of help with publicity and suchlike, and who are also a block and a half from where we're staying. So...We're going to go there, and we pulled this thing off, and I'll come back and finish this later, because my freeblock is ending rapidly, and I have to go to Theory of Knowledge, and ****! I had homework,

All right, so I'm here again, and it's pretty cool that I don't have to be stressing out about how I'm going to find somewhere to go, I'm just going to have to choose between the 22 offers I have right now. Anyways, I'm going to go do that now, but, you should all respond, so that I can get some more contact with home, because I'm feeling slightly depressed right now.

So, now that you have 22 offers to come help out - and it sounds like you have chosen the one - how do you say thanks but no thanks to the other 21? Maybe you could just send some of your clones or split personalities or doubles to the other 21 needy and worthy organizations of the Canadian wilderness...
Check with Laura how she deals with the anti-american thing. She's in the same boat.
other than that, it sounds as if you are having great fun!
