That's true. The entire qualifying exams, or the exit exams, rather, those were tiring. Just sitting, no talking, no food or water, minimal breaks, it's exhausting actually. I mean, the tests were a joke that year, so everyone finished pretty quick, and ended up regretting it because we turned into these upside down slugs in our chairs.

Hello there everyone ^_^

Okay...when did an ocean topic turn into a school topic...?

*Crane gives a lofty shrug and lays back on a blow-up mattress with a large umbrella, just floating along*

Hey there, Phareas.

*Watches Crane floating* ooooh

Gotta go eat dinnar guys, see you later!

Hullo, thar~

School always haunt us...no matter where we are. o.o

I used to do this all the time in Penticton.

*Gives a lazy wave goodbye* Ciao, Hanako.

Good fun.

*Nods.*

Bye Bye Hanako.
School doesn't haunt me cos I don't go to school anymore XD

Aw...poop.

Gar...I have project to finish tonight...o.o I should get started, I suppose.

I will see everyone later, then. ^_^

<33

Buhbye XD

Later, tsubasa.

Yeah, it is pretty fun. There was this canal you just float down for hours. I'd use it for exercise and swim instead of running because it was just easier, and it was more relaxing. After a few dives, we collected tons of litter and cans of beer so we could recycle them, along with a couple pairs of snorkeling goggles and equipment.

Now that, was awesome.

That sounds fun. I'm going swimming at the lake tomorrow. I might take my inflatable mattress XD

Nice, nice.

We finally got two after years of admiring everyone else who had one, while I just swam around in circles. It helps a lot when you're too lazy and just want to lay out and float around.

-joins in to the convo- I haven't been swimming in sooo long... like since I went to Australia... but I should go swimming soon coz it's summer! woohoo!

I don't really like swimming, and I HATE waterweeds around my ankles *shudder* but I took a sailing class this last year! That was fun if a little nervewracking. XD

I'd be chicken to go swimming there.

I'm going to Hawaii in March for a class trip, and I'm psyched. First thing I'm doing is a dive right into that warm, clear water.

It's all icy here, and the only clear water is glacier fed, so it's really cold. Or the inlet with the silt, but it's dangerous because of the mud flats.

Swimming... It's too cold to swim here. T_T

I think at the moment it's too cold to swim in most places of the Americas, well the Northern America's anyways.. Though we can always imagine.

Paper crane: Do you mean too scared to swim in australia? I went in my aunty's pool... she had such a nice house with big double gates at the front and marble floors it's so beautiful XD. I want to go to somewhere like Hawaii or Fiji or Raratonga sooo bad... I've never been to anything tropical like that.

Uh, it's way to cold even in the summer, haha.

What do you mean?

Hey kale, crazy hair XD... that's a compliment by the way hehe.

I mean, the water is glacier fed, which makes it icy cold. It's refreshing, tastes great, but it sure is cold.
