Balloon Cars {and cave in}

I've had just about enough
Of cloaked diamonds in the rough
Because my backbone is paper thin
Get me out of this cavern or I'll cave in

So, Mrs. Persad assigned us this stupid project on Friday; we had to make a "car" powered by no more than 2 balloons in a week, and it had to go at least 5 meters. That's 15 feet. And did I mention that the wheels you used could not be anything originally meant to be used as wheels?

It was pretty stupid, and me and my partner had a bit of a scramble to get it done. Especially me; I (and I got my parents to help a lot, too) stayed up until 1 last night getting it done. And all in all, it went 3 meters. That's good, since at least once or twice it didn't really go anywhere, which means that I got an 85 instead of a 65. Whew.

It's 1 again right now, and I probably should've gone to bed 2 hours ago.. but I kinda got wrapped up in Tvtropes. Which I think is kindof lame and not really well known, but it has that Wikipedia quality that you can keep looking up stuff for hours. Which.. I just did.

If the bombs go off the sun will still be shining
Because I've heard it's said that every mushroom cloud has a silver lining

By the by, getting the Ocean Eyes album was definitely a good idea. Even the song that I thought was wayyyyyy too cheery at first seems to appeal to me now. And my dad seems to like Owl City, which is cool.

I'm going to be a vampire again, like last year - same costume and everything, since I didn't express much interest in being something else. And I don't mean the sparkly vampire. I just have a pale face and a trickle of face blood for my makeup. No glitter. ;)

Tie my handlebars to the stars so I stay on track~

Happy Halloween, everyone!

{By the way, my possible favorite song out of the Ocean Eyes album is Cave In, followed by the original Hello Seattle and, of course, Fireflies.}
