One Week Until Christmas

Okay, more and more, Jewitt is reminding me of Mr. Halyk. They don't just vaguely act the same and like the same things, sometimes, they say THE EXACT SAME THINGS. Here are how they are the same:

They are close in age
The both love sports
They both look at the books I'm reading
They both know I'm good with words
They both like English
Sometimes, Mr. Halyk will be talking to us and he'll be like, "our generation is [blah blah blah] and then he'll stop and go, "yes, I'm grouping myself with your generation." MR. JEWITT DOES THAT TOO! He's done it more than once!
They both give these philosophical lectures that get off topic.
They both dislike technology
They are both semi-bald
They both call me Tarnowetzki
They both talk a lot about their families

It's really really scary. Today he was talking about how he doesn't like technology and I was thinking about how much like Mr. Halyk he is and he's like, "what's the word I'm thinking of...Tarnowetzki, can you help me?" and I was like, "what? Sorry, I zoned out." And then I thought "THAT IS SOMETHING MR. HALYK WOULD SAY TO ME!" It's really really weird.

I got all my Xmas shopping done. Well, almost. I'm trusting that my family doesn't read this blog, so here's what I got them (and Falicia and Stacey)

Mom: a robe (Lindsay actually got it, but whatever)
Dad: Corner Gas season 4 (didn't actually get it yet)
Jonas: a cookbook and Ghost in the Shell on DVD
Lindsay: a sweater, The Goonies, and Star Trek III: Search For Spock
Falicia: a Nirvana CD
Stacey: a pink tank top

I'm getting more and more addicted to Gossip Girl. Penn Badgley is SO HOT. Gossip Girl is definitely not as good as The OC though. Okay, I always thought The OC went bad because Marissa died, but I think it's almost as good as it was before. The show went bad (well, not bad, but not as good as the first season) in the third season, when Marissa was still there. I think it's still quite good. Taylor is hilarious and Kaitlin has some good subplots as well. It definitely shouldn't have gotten cancelled. I mean, even One Tree Hill is still going, and I describe it as The OC lite. It's nowhere near as witty.

I can't wait until vacation. GAH I am so sick of school.

Anyhoo, going to jet. Ciao.
