April Showers Bring May Flowers

If April Showers Bring May Flowers, then why was it trying to snow today!! They last day of April and it tries to snow! What has the world come to!? But tomorrow it will be May! YES! Finally, I've been waiting forever for May, which means only a month of school left of the school year! YES!
On a side note I went to the orthadontist today for the yearly check-up they do, which I might want to add that my teeth are perfectly fine! But in the office they had the movie of Princess Bride on, which entertain me a lot, when I could see past the light. Anyways on the way home, my mom, sister and I got stuck in Rush hour, so we were on the subject of the movie of Princess Bride and somehow it reminded me of Monte Python and the Holy Grail (I think I spelled that right, I'm a horrible speller, sorry!), and I found out my mom hates that movie!!! My own mother hates it! Plus then it started trying to snow then! What a day!

Late-start :)

Yes! It's late-start! Two extra hours of sleep on a school day! And it's bright and sunny outside when I wake up, instead of the depressing, gray pre-dawn. Plus I have almost no homework but Math, and then today I have the first in school orchestra class since the festival, so we should be having a party! (hopefully) Of course one of the best things is that in English we finished with the vocab. book! Yes, no more annoying weekly test that I study for in the period before! Then to top it off, my brother's birthday is coming this Sunday and yeah...! Oh plus and hour lunch today, if I can survive Katie, but that's okay she can't ruin my happy day! :)

HUZZAH!!!

My orchestra made it to state! YEAH! But then it was a 4 hour round trip home on the bus! Then my bus got lost, two streets away from the school! :(

But still WE MADE IT TO STATE!

Been one of those weekends...

Kay I know some of you could agrue that the weekend offically starts on Saturday, but right now I'm gonna to agrue that it starts on Friday. Since so far my weekend has been the best and worst weekend ever!
First of all two early mornings in a row, really can take it out of ya. First one was the dress rehersal for my Orchestra Festival. Then in chemistry I found out that I did horrible on a test, and then sub. for chemistry started explaining a new idea, and it was Greek to me and everyone in the class. But in second period Ms. Sides the teacher had a meeting, and got a sub. (ususally they're completly wacky, like Sides), but no sub. turned up during the WHOLE period. And so no one had to take the test that was suppose to be on Friday. But World Civ. ruined it, by passing out the DBQ. Not that they're too hard. Then on Saturday I had my second early morning, making it two in a row, and this one I actually volutneered for! I was passing out water for the 2008 marathon. Which made us muscles that I probably am never going to ever use again. When you passed out cups you had to hold the cup at the bottom with your fingertips, and then hold your arm out away from you so the runners could run past and grab it out of your hand without slowing down. My arm killed, and also I got up at 3:30 A.M. for that?! But I did sneak two hours of sleep, by sleeping in the car during prepartions! Yes! My sister was annoyed at me for doing that, but hey she can be the goody-two-shoes if she wants, but I wanted to sleep! (I'm not a morning person.) When marathon started, we had to wait for about an hour for the runners to get to us, and then it was just a mass of people who all wanted water! Goodness, that was a mess. A controlled mess, but still a mess. Then all of sudden it was over, and we had a few hundred already poured water cups left over...what should we do with all that water? I thought pouring into the grass, or something productive (since we were in the middle of a park), but everyone else decided to have a water fight. Well...yeah, we've all have been in those... But after those two crazy days, I have nothing to do, so...I'm thinking banging my head on the wall might be a bit more entertaining than staring at the monitor!

I hate homework

It always seems like that in April that school starts to lose it's importance. Sleep and free time, of course, start gaining importance. And no matter how hard I try I can't seem to keep my mind on school...must be because there's roughly about 31 days of school left! YES! :)
What sucks is even though your mind starts to meander during school, somehow the teachers still stay on task! So they will of course continue assigning homework, and giving test with no end in site. *sigh* But I got really lucky a few days ago, in Chemistry we have a sub. this term, and that Monday happened to be a day where we had a test, the sub. started handing out the test and a few minutes later, lo and behold the 'B' test didn't have a second page! The sub had absolutely no idea what to do, and we got an extra day to study. Seems like I do have SOME good luck!!

Siblings

Siblings...everyone probably knows what I'm talking about. Won't leave you alone for the tiniest second! Ugh! Being the oldest isn't always the greatest...

Stuid Moments Everyone has...

Have you ever been walking down the street somewhere to someplace, and waved at a seemingly famaliar car? And then as it goes past you realize you have no freaking idea who you just waved to?
In the neighborhood that I live in, there are two jeeps that look almost exactly the same, my family owns one, and then there's another family just a few houses down from mine that owns one!
So today when I was walking home from the bus stop, the other jeep drove by, and boy did I really wave, cuz I knew that my dad was home and could be driving our jeep, and maybe I could get a ride home. But as it turns out, it was the other family's jeep, and I looked like a complete idiot!

Bookworm

Kay, I'll admit it...I'm a complete and total bookworm, I've been meaning to stick these dates up for awhile:

May 20th: Pendragon, Raven Rise by: D.J. Machale
August 2nd: Twilight Series, Breaking Dawn by: Stephenie Meyer
September 9th: Heir Series, Dragon Heir by: Cinda Chima
September 20th: Inhertiance Series, Brsingr by: Chris Paloni

Just dates, that sequels for good series are coming out, yes, I know dorky, put I could stick up a lot more if you wanted. If you liked Harry Potter, you would probably like some of these too, but Harry Potter has dropped off my favorite list, so...

P.S. Unfortunately, the best series of all, just barely came out with a new book, so the author is writing the next book, and it won't be out for another year. But, hopefully James Patterson will quickly come out with another Maximum Ride book, the last one was WAY too short!!

...

Well, I'm feeling pretty happy for a long school day, with NO homework. It's like a miracle or something! Though history is now turing depressing, while English has just turned boring, luckily not depressing FOR the moment right now!
And then there's keeping track of friend's social lives...the biggest headache of all. First of all you have to keep track of whole likes who, or who's going out with who, or then you have the people that say they're never going to date. And since no one has caught my eye right now, I usually end up spending time withe the last group, which is interesting. If they're not talking about how the dating people are ditching their friends, they're then talking about depressing or just plain weird stuff. It just really takes it out of ya...
