what i did this weekend

exams. are. ruining. my. life.

UGH!!!

i got tired of studing. so i started playing disney songs on the piano. it was a good way to forget about french. and how i failed at algebra on friday. god. longest weekend ever. have i told you lately that i love you? i've blushing in my dreams trying to forget how much i miss his voice. not that it matters. i had actually sucessfully forgotten totally about him (the guy i met in willy wonka) until two weeks ago at which point he inadvertantly has made all my hard work worthless. i get a little tired and out comes the drama! haha. i just kinda want to fast forward to being some where far far away for the summer where i can just sit and think and not have my aunt terry be any where in proximity. i hate her. any one want to trade families?

ok. breathing.
gonna sleep it off.
b-cubed

Another Tragedy

So. Yesterday, if you havent heard, a junior at Davidson, Rico Butler, drowned in a quarry. It was the UA one right next to my house. he was there messing around with friends and i guess he got swept under by a current and drowned. Our school is a wreck.

reflection?

so now, its 9:45 Sunday night, and i have approxamately "2 minutes" left on the computer... lets see if i can do this in a time crunch.
MY FRESHMAN YEAR IN A NUTSHELL:
well, the beginning was REALLLLY hard. i was so grateful to have Erin Rose, Makenzie, and Saana with me to make HDvHS seem even a little bit like home. The schoolwork was exhausting, and i missed all of you so much, i would cry all the time. im pretty sure i had a little case of depression. I was enlightened a tad bit during the winter. Even though gymnastics took up almost allllllll of my time, i was at Bradley alot and so i felt a bit less depressed. i tried to make the best of my school year because i figure if i have to be stuck here (ive finally faced the reality that im not going to be able to transfer) i might as well have fun. I made a few friends, some of which i wish i hadnt made, its just toooooo much. Some friendships i wish i hadnt kept. But my fellow nerdy geekmates cheered me up a bit. Even though Aglebra 2 has been tough (understatement) thats one of my favorite classes. Bio is my favorite though, because we have so much fun! we had a party on friday, because we had 300+ points turned in that week between honors projects, pig dissections, quizzes and our 100 pt test. French this year has sucked so bad, you cant even imagine. Mme Homsi cant teach, she grew up in Lebanon and Paris,(where she spoke both french and english) so she doesnt know what its like to NOT KNOW ANY OF THE LANGUAGE AT ALL before you start learning it, and we pretty much havent learned anything. im not even kidding. its bad, and ive heard Mme Shepard is even worse. Choir has been awesome though, i love the people in my class and i made senior choir!!!!! And i have a solo!!! (wednesday 7:30 PAC its a whole song, one that IIIIII wrote, be there!)
Sports have been alright, gymnastics made me so mentally weak its such a hard sport. Its hard on everything, your life mostly, but your body and definately your mind. Track, even though it was hard, felt like a cake walk. i think i might have to look at it with a more positive attitude next year, because i could be really good but i put like 0 value into it this year and it showed.
Tetelstai and everything that i've done with my church outside of school has definately been a high point in my year. TTT rocked my world, so many experiences. i feel like ive matured because of it, alot. and then now that i go to youth groups, i feel like im in a way better space. And i found out that i LOOOOVE snowboarding :]
anyway im going to be grounded if i dont get off now, so love you all, see ya!

Middle School!

Hey, so I know that I just posted a video last night, but I'm really bored and I finially finished this one after working on it for a few weeks. Yes weeks, I had to find all these pictures through other peoples facebooks and it took forever. Oh yeah, I didn't say this on the other video, but make sure you turn of the music on the bottom of the blog before watching this. And I don't know why, but the pictures get kind of pixelated when I convert them, so sorry. I hope you still like it! I know making this brought back some pretty good memories for me.

SUMMER OF '10

This summer I am doing an ecology project!
Instead of bumming rides off of people ALL the time I'm bike riding to places I would usually go in car. If it is within a 5 mile radius.

Exceptions: When I'm on a tight schedule

Dangerous roads (I ain't biking on Alton Darby)

When I have to take Bart with me. I so should have stuck with viola....actually no, that would not be fun.

OTHER THINGS I HOPE TO DO THIS SUMMER BUT I ACKNOWLEDGE HALF OF THEM WILL FALL THROUGH THE CRACKS:

~Planting my Garden
~Finishing my book
~Reading a lot
~Making Pots
~Bike Riding
~Seeing you cool cats
~Summer Gym (Mandatory time taker uper)
~Orchestra Camp for a week! (SO EXCITED)
~Bradley orchestra stuff
~String trio with Kettmans
~Driving time
~DO we have summer homework?
~ABC!
~QUALITY TIME ON THE HAMMOCK
~Going to the pool more than twice
~ CHILLING
~Enhancing my musical knowledge
~Finding my personality again (school robbed me of it)
~Camping
So that's a preview of future blogging topics and hopefully you can keep me to them!

~Approximately 7 days of school left! w0000t!

~NEON NEON NEON NEON DUCKING!

Another Video!
