Day of Recognition Indeed.

Because my schedule has been busy this Sunday, I didn't have time to write the blog to vent out excitement. I realize that I haven't gotten around to making one yet, and well I don't think it's too much to vent out my excitement.

YAYAYAYYAYAYYAYAY YAYAYAYYAYYAYYAYAYAYAYAYAY
YAY.

Now that that's over.

Saturday was just one of those great days that come along well after all this crap's happened. So now I'm worried about the crap part. But still.

It all began with rain. Although this ruined plans of going to Chinatown with my good friend, I ended up sleeping in a little more. Then I awoke to a text from my Besss Prann telling me that I was in the newspaper. It's local but still. My mom found another picture of me in there and I snipped them both out. Wow, that sounds a bit narcissistic. But so was that whole day. Then I found my first name spelled incorrectly. Seriously. It's not that difficult to spell.

Whilst hanging out with my friend, it was our Saturday so we watched a few movies and just caught up. It's been a while since I even had time to think about hanging out with her; our schedules are so hectic.

Later, at the Leadership Banquet, my family came with me this year. When we found our seats, our last name was spelled incorrectly. :( Only an emoticon can describe. However on the paper awards that I recieved my name was spelled correctly, thank goodness. And surprise, surprise I won the Vladislav Ruza Award. I suppose I ought to give some background: he was also in the Leadership class many years ago and passed away in a tragic accident. Because he was a dedicated and loving person, Leadership created an award in his honor. And shoot. It feels great to be worthy of that award. And my name was spelled correctly! And the Memories Slideshow was just so cute.

As is custom, after the banquet we go to the Denny's Restaurant near our school. Which really doesn't make sense because the banquet was like 20 minutes away from home, then we pass by home to go to Denny's and then go back home. Well whatever. It was fun anyway.

So all-in-all, it was a great day to get my name out. Even if it was spelled incorrectly. :P

Half way there.

So I have finally finished my last day of the first semester this school year. It's been a pretty crazy day. It was my last day in the Leadership class and overall, it was just not long enough.

We only had 3 classes today, and all were about an hour and a half long. And my friend passed her Drivers' License test today too. It was just a day to celebrate. After a quick shop at the mall, we ate at the new BJ's restaurant that just opened. After eating, catching up with the girlfriends and some pretty fun conversation, it was time to visit other friends.

Those guys just kept calling and when I got there, it was just those two playing video games. I mean, really. Guys might be able to just have fun playing those for hours but I'd rather talk or something. I don't know. Maybe it's the testosterone-estrogen differences. How they can do that is just mind-boggling. Though to be fair, it must be mind boggling to why girls can just go to the mall for hours, not buy anything and still have fun.

Anyway, I just decided that today needed a post because it felt like a monumental day where so much and yet so little occurred.

God, that is annoying.

School is not Fun.

It's been about 3 weeks since my last post and things have been on roller coaster tracks. The only thing going on in my life right now is procrastination. And, boy, is it bad. I really ought to be doing some English, or study for Friday's history test, but I really can't push my self up to it.

I wish we had 4 days of school a week. Don't just give me a 3-day weekend either. We should have Wednesdays off. Two days of school
, one day off. Two days of school, 2 days off. That'd be just great. And if anyone asks, we'll just say; "Because it's Hump Day!" Which is one of those things my teacher in the first grade used to say, especially when she gave us pop vocabulary quizzes. Thanks Miss Duke, or Miss Duke 'em Nuke 'em.

Since today was, or still is Wednesday, I've decided to write down today's events.
Per.1 - Notes on Photosynthesis, with detailed graphics. yay...
Per. 2 - A quick vocabulary test which was followed by working on Group Timed Writes (Essays)
Per. 3 - We had a substitute, whom us Spanish students called : SeƱora Hierros
Per. 4 - Almost cried giving my Final Report. And I found out who wrote me a strange note sometime last school year.
Lunch - Had a UCC meeting.
Per. 5 - Lecture of history.
Per. 6 - Lecture on Spanish Commands.
Over the day - Plans to make this week the week of Dress-up Thursday a
nd Friday. Thursday will be Springtime dresses (Because we've just got amazingly, if not annoyingly, warm weather this week.) And the following day will be DSF (Dirty Slut Friday) because we all should dress somewhat inappropriately. Also we made plans of presents for a friend's birthday tomorrow. It's rather difficult to get what she wants, because she's been avoiding talking of her birthday. But it won't matter come tomorrow.
After School - A few friends and I went over to Walmart for cake-shopping and project shopping. And then I did a little of my own shopping. Later I skipped over to Staples for so
me school supplies. I tried to do homework and ended up painting my nails. Which are now very purple. I edited my myspace and all this random stuff to waste time.

Now I've got to pick up my slack here and rush. Good Lord, I make things difficult don't I?

A little side note, the Fresh and Easy Store opened up nearby and the man twirling and dancing with the WE'RE OPEN arrow definitely caught everyone's attention. I consider him a hero. Because that man can dance up a storm and will probably end up dancing himself to death.
