I'm definitely not complaining about my results =D

I feel so bad . . . I've neglected my LiveJournal! I would say I've been busy, but lately . . . . I really haven't. School's been out for about a week, so I've just been hanging around, going to the mall and movies. There's really not much to do in this place, Melbourne.

Buuuuuut . . . my birthday's on Sunday! I'm a bit excited. I mean, I'm going to be seventeen! I'm finally catching up to the rest of my friends who've been seventeen for months or even a year! I'm hoping that I'll get to go to Miami tomorrow, so I can can hang with friends I haven't seen in a while, like Allison [you hear that Alli? Maybe! And look: I've updated my journal!] and others. 

Oh, and about school. I finished on June 3rd, which was a random Tuesday. My last exams were Spanish, then Algebra. Spanish was completely easy, so I definitely aced that. Math, though . . . eh. I dunno how I did, but I don't really care anymore cause I'm done! I'm a senior!

I just love 3-day weekends. But this has to be one of the most interesting weekends, so far.

My family and I are like obssessed with Cirque du Soliel. It is serously one of the coolest things, EVER. If you haven't heard of Cirque du Soliel before (shame on you!) I'll tell you. It's a French circus (the name, in French, means 'circus of the sun') that was started by these 2 French street performers. How cool is that? There are different shows for it, all over the world. The shows tell stories, like fairy-tales, with their singers, dancers, and performers, like gymnasts and acrobats.

The show we went to on Saturday was La Nouba. It's at this big tent located at the end of the West Side in Downtown Disney. La Nouba means 'to party', by the way/ And what a party it was! It was seriously awesome and insanely hilarious. The clowns are just a riot. And the outfits! So beautiful . . .

And the acts! I loved the high-wire act, but I was so terrified that they were going to fall. They didn't of course, and it was amazing. 

There were these adorable little Asian girls, I swear they looked about 5 or 6, and they performed with these things called "diabolos". They're like wooden Chinese yo-yos. And while they were playing with them, they performed the most amazing stunts: cartwheels, somersaults, and back hand-springs. 

My favorites were these clown-like men, Les Cons. They were so funny, just doing the randomest things in the background. I loved them. 

The last performance, and definitely my favorite, was the Power Track/Trampoline act. These people performed the most incredible stunts. There were about 20 people, each doing something like jumping of the mini building in the middle of the stage, or doing back-flips. AMAZING. It was seriously the high-light of the show for me.

There was a lot more, obviously, but now I am way too tired to write any more. I should take advantage of this day off and catch up on some sleep.
