My days

are a blur of "whaaaaaaa!!!" It seems like each day is just a millisecond and then it's over. Take today for example: wake up at 5:38 AM, get ready, leave for school at 6:21, get to school at 6:47, get dressed for PE, play volleyball and laugh at Ms. Osborne screaming like a madwoman. Then, get dressed go to 1st period, then second. In second I get my test back; got an A of some sort. At break all I have time for is to go to my locker then go all the way to the portables for third period where I see an inappropriate music video. In fourth period I work on making my candle; by the way: I suck at working with clay. At lunch I had a meeting for class stuff. In leadership I tried to get the minutes signed but Butch wouldn't sign them. 6th period I believe I failed my test. See, I know what happened throughout the day in general. But that's all I can remember. I can't remember any details! This is how all days are. I need sleep. Well, back to homework. Done with my physics homework. Just English and Spanish left. Almost there!

This zero period thing...

is turning out to be a very, very tiring thing. I knew I was going to be tired, but not this tired. This is like one-hundred times worse than I anticipated. Stupid San Jose! Why? Why? Why, is it necessary for me to stay here like a prisoner against her will. No one gets along in this house and I'm sick of it! I've been sick of it for quite a while, but because I am forced to stay here I have to get up an extra half hour earlier than I would normally, I hate it even more. And for what? To drive a half hour to go to school, do my daily routine, and then come back and go to sleep. The point of that is what, exactly? Enjoy the fights? I've finally determined you must. For a reason I may never be able to fathom, but that's okay because I know your head is all messed up... it must be. It's the only explanation I could come up with. Anyway, it's only been a week of zero period, we've only dressed out once, and I am completely exhausted. We haven't even started playing any sort of sport and I feel like a freaking zombie. This is nonsense! Once my grades start slipping, maybe they'll realize that I need more sleep-I'm not invincible, people! I fell asleep in the car on the way to San Jose today. We were getting onto the 101 on-ramp and crash, apparently I'm asleep because I don't remember the merge onto the ramp and then I woke up as we came up the driveway. Darn you, alarm clock that wakes me up at 5:15. Though, technically, I should be thanking you. You are what gets me to school on time, so I apologize. And now I'm talking to an alarm clock. Great. Either her craziness is rubbing off on me or I need some extra sleep. We'll go with the second one, thanks.

Hello Junior Year!

Exactly a week from right now I will be done with my first day of junior year. I had registration today and I got my schedule. As far as I know, I have at least one person I know in each of my classes. Let me know if you are too:

0 period: PE
1st: Honors English with Ms. Roy
2nd: Precalculus with Mr. Robydeck
3rd: Spanish 3 with Mrs. Lupe Vargas
4th: Ceramics with Mr. Albrecht
5th: Leadership with Mrs. Butcher
6th: Physics with Mr. Fowler

Now that I know I have the classes I want and there's no more stress, I'm pretty excited to start this year. There's a lot of things to look forward to: thinking seriously about college, prom, last year of STAR testing, and others, I just can't think of any more atthe moment.

It was good seeing everyone again today. I'll see y'all again in a week(=

LAST DAY! LAST DAY! LAST DAY!

Yes, tomorrow is my last day of school. I'm really, really excited. However, I have to take my final which I'm quite nervous about. I have a 96% in the class, but I'm still scared. We'll see though. I'm more worried about the multiple choice than the essay, actually. Strange, huh?

In other news: starting today my sister has left me alone with a psycho woman. No, not really. I mean she's left me but just til Saturday night. I'll live, I hope. I'm glad she gets to get away though. She's going to the CASL Leadership camp. She's pretty nervous but it's fun, she should be excited. I just have to keep myself busy until Saturday, so if anyone wants to hangout... just let me know(=

Well, off to continue studying. Wish me luck!

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

So I went to this movie at 12:15 a.m. yesterday with my wonderful, dark friend Meera. While we were waiting for the movie to start, we played a funny little game that she and Ashley introduced me to at class and then we talked for a while. I'm glad because we hadn't really had one of those deep talks in a while. I love my yin. Haha! Anyway, it was quite an amazing movie. Super funny for the first half and super sad for the second half... and a little bit freaky throughout. Nonetheless, it was pretty awesome. It has, in fact, inspired me to reread all of the Harry Potter books. I began and finished the first one yesterday and now I'm in the middle of the second. And yeah the movies are good, but the books are a hundred times better. There's so much more detail and emotion in the books. But that could just be the nerd in me speaking. Haha. But after I finish all of the books, I'm going to have an HP movie marathon. Care to join me?

One week of class left! (= Only three more classes after tonight's. I'm really excited. I'm a little scared for my final though. Good thing is, though, I know what he's looking for in the essay, which is the majority of the final. And I've gotten an A on all of my essays this far. I should be fine. I hope.

I GOT A FOUR!

I'm not really sure exactly what that means, but I know it's good. A three is average, and barely anyone gets a five, which is the best score possible. And if your wondering, all of this has to do with my AP World History test that I took in May. I was super stressed, studying like a crazy woman, and being quite a meanie because of it. All of that paid off though. I'm really quite proud of myself. Now I have college credits for World History. Well, actually it depends on what college I'm talking about. But whatever. It still looks good that I got a four. Wooo!

Okay, off to study for more history. Dang, I don't even want to be a history major! This is a bunch of nonsense.

"FIREWAAAAKS!"

Last night was fun, fun, fun. Even if I lost half of the people I was supposed to be hanging out with because the lights turned off before the fireworks, it was fun watching them with Meera, Jeffrey, Phillip, and (later) Ashley. Found Vy, Cecilia, Bettina, Joann, and Victoria after. Dang, it was packed though. Nice seeing everyone, even those I wouldn't normally hangout with-I missed them. Strange, eh?

Before I left, my family and I had a huge, fattening, definitely American two meals. For lunch we had homemade chili cheese fries and for dinner we had hot dogs with way too many delicious condiments. Oh, how I love fourth of July.

My midterm is OVER! Yay! And I'm pretty sure I did well on it... we'll see tomorrow. I got an A- on my essay that was due last week. Much better than I thought, and I'm glad. I only needed one more point for an A though )=

I miss my friends. School feels never ending and like a prison! Even when I'm not there, there's some kind of long, obnoxious reading to be doing. Oh well, at least I get to see some people at class.

Oh, and if you haven't yet, you should definitely read Along for the Ride by Sarah Dessen. It's really good.
