no school tomorrow! woo!

today was a the start of the second semester and let me tell you how wonderfully awful, i mean great, my classes are. first i have english 12. its a team taught class which basically means that there are students in the classroom that need a little extra help. then second i have civics and boy, is it packed in there! then third and fourth i have biology....im just going to keep my mouth shut on that class. then fifth and sixth i have communications 103 which is a dual credit class for Marshall and that means that if i pass the class, i dont have to take it my freshman year of college. then seventh i have office aide which is basically my favorite part of the day. have i ever mentioned that i can NOT wait to graduate??? bc i really cant!

so shane came over after school and had dinner with my family and i. we decided to go get ice cream afterwards and then randomly decided to go see the movie Juno (one of the best movies ever if i do say so myself - seen it twice!). while im in the movie, i get a phone call from trevor saying we have NO SCHOOL tomorrow bc there was a water line break or something which also means that we cant use the fountains or the sinks or anything. bottled water is best, in my opinion :o) so im pretty excited about not going to school in the morning.

one things im a little worried about is taking the SATs Saturday....PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE pray for me. i really really want the PROMISE scholarship, which basically PAYS my way through college, so yea! itd be amazing if i got it. i hope i do. well im kinda tired. i think im gonna hit the sack. more blogging tomorrow!

ttfn - ta ta for now!

sorry, no photos today.

crazy day

this morning i woke up to a big mess in my bed (my dog, chewy, had a few accidents in my bed and i dont mean #1 or #2) so i had to clean that up at 5:30am. talk about rude awakenings! so after i took my bedsheets downstairs, i grabbed a quilt and snuggled back into bed. i fell asleep until about 12:30 when i heard my cell phone vibrating (shane was texting me, telling me to wake up). i turned on the TV and watched Hannah Montana all day (yes, i am a big Disney fan) then i got a shower and waited for my friend, liz, to come over and play Rocband with trevor and i. well she texted me at about 2:30 saying that she couldnt come over because she forgot to clean her room and her mom said she had to stay home. so i cleaned my sheets then when terry and mom got home, we had homemade chicken stir-fry (it was DELICIOUS!) and then terry, trev, and mommy decided to go to the movies to see National Treasure 2 (i didnt see NT1 so i thought it would kinda be silly to go see NT2). i stayed home and watched some more HM then watched CSI:Las Vegas (my favorite). when my sheets were clean, i put them back on my bed and did a pretty good job if i do say so myself :o) well tomorrow is a new semester for me (my LAST SEMESTER OF HIGH SCHOOL!! WOOOH!) and i think i need to get some rest.

today was a lazy day for me. i woke up at 9 bc my aunt was here cleaning and i heard my brother playing guitar hero. then i stayed in bed until about 3:45 then went to the mall to pic up some pictures and get my schedule at work (which, btw, i havent worked for the past three weeks, and GUESS WHAT? this week makes FOUR!!) then trevor and i went to the Y to swim. my hands still smell like chlorine lol. tomorrow i plan on cleaning my room hardcore bc i have NO MORE ROOM in my closet for clothes so im planning on cleaning them out. i think im going to talk to terry soon about booking our senior trip to DISNEY WORLD soon bc i dont want to wait any longer lol. im really excited! well i think im going to go see if moms home yet then maybe play guitar hero or rockband with trevor.

If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it."

photos: (left to right then down) first picture is of chewy and i. she is actually laying in my arms, shes never done that before. the next picture is something i did in Painting class this semester as a choice painting. i drew it on a graph, then erased the graph and painted it. the next picture is the Brasilian (yes, its normally spelled with an "s", but Americans are the only ones who spell it with a "z") flag that is hanging by my bed. i LOVE brasil and cannot wait to go back next year!! yay! the last picture is the second painting i did as another choice for class. again, i drew it on a graph then erased the graph and then painted it. i love it!!

bored

today was CRAPPY! even though its a friday and i get to sleep in in the morning. well to start off, i had to wake up early for school, and then i had to GO to school. after school i went to my boyfriends house then we ended up going to the Y and go into a fight but owell. and now my tooth hurts so im kind sad about that. i know this is short but im kinda tired.

sorry, no pictures tonight.

almost the weekend!

sorry i didnt post anything yesterday. nothing exciting happened so there wasnt much to talk about. today was better though. i finally got my 18 year old license (a month and thirteen days after my birthday!!) yea lets say im a big procrastinator on some things lol. anywho, trevor and i are watching CSI (one of my all time favorite shows EVER!) but we're getting ready to go play rock band. if you've never played it before, ur MISSING OUT! its awesome! well i changed my schedule for second semester. it used to be: 1st-Eng 12, 2nd-Civics, 3rd/4th-Pre Calc Honors, 5th/6th-Communications 103 (dual credit class for MU), and 7th-Office Aide, but now instead of Pre Calc, i have Biology now. i think that it would be a little bit better for me since i want to be a nurse when i grow up :o). well, its time to go play with trev!

today was a long day at school. June 7th cannot get here fast enough (graduation day). well, my job situation at American Eagle kinda stinks right now. i didnt work at all last week and i dont work any this week either!! but i dont want to quit that job bc i get 40% off all clothes and sometimes 50% on special occasions. i dont want to give that up, so im thinking about maybe getting a waitressing job...? golden corral maybe? its close by and my friend works there and he said he made $150 in tips one night, but was covering more tables than usual. idk what i want to do. hopefully the situation with American Eagle will get better, or maybe if i get a job at GC, itll work out. i dont know. only time will tell lol. well i gotta go play Rockband with Trev!

very very bored

well, my family + shane is watching the football game....boring! id rather be watching CSI eating Fudge Pops. today i had school. i hate mondays. they always know how to put me in a bad mood lol. i got my second semester schedule today. i have: 1st-English 12, 2nd-civics, 3rd/4th-pre-calc honors, 5th/6th-communications 103 (college credit class), and 7th-office aide. not bad, if i do say so myself. well tonight's post is going to be short. sorry but there is just nothing exciting to talk...wait!! i almost forgot!! after school today i was planning on going to get my 18 year old license (yea ive been 18 for a while, i know!), but theyre camera just happened to be broken and i drove down there for nothing...again. then i went to pick up my class ring bc we had to get it re-sized bc josten's (who make the SUPERBOWL RINGS) dont have HALF sizes (like 5.5, which is what i thought i wanted) so we had to take it somewhere to get it done. well, i put it on my finger and realized its still too big....sucks!! then after that we went to Johnson's to pick up reprints of homecoming pictures that were ready on Nov. 30th but we just never had time to pick them up. they said that i would probably have to pay a storage fee but i ended up not having to..thank goodness! well now that ive vented, i think im in a little bit better mood. gtg!

photos: top picture is of a kid i babysit. if u look in the background, you'll see a butt and some legs. thats Preston. he's 4 and has a chromosome disorder. he's just now started to talk and hasnt been walking that long, but he is the sweetest kid in the world along with with his brother, Andrew, who is 2.

middle pictures is what i see everytime i come downstairs from the shower every morning. she stays that way and watches me get ready. when i walk towards her, she finally gets up and stretches then has to go outside. funny dog i must say.

bottom picture is of chewy in the snow. one thing about her, she wont go "#1" or "#2" outside unless she sees/feels grass. since theres was alot of snow, i tried to clear a "green spot" for her but that wasnt good enough. talk about spoiled.

perfect end to a looong weekend

hey sorry my post is so late today. i havent been home all day basically. my day started out at 9:30 this morning. i went to church, then met my mamaw at Applebees to eat. yum! then we decided to go to the movies and see Alvin and the Chipmunks. ive now seen it twice and if u havent seen it, i strongly advice that u get ur bottom to the theater and see it. then after the movie, we went to the mall and my mamaw and i got our nails done. i got fake nails put on (painted red with a tiny white heart on each pinkie - v-day's next month i know lol) but she just got a regular manicure. she wasnt planning on getting one but the chinese man talked her into it lol. so after that i went to my boyfriend's house, but on the way there, i almost hit bambi 1 and bambi 2. i wasnt even speeding (45-50 in a 55 mph zone) because if i go anything over the speed limit my mamaw would go nuts. so i slam on my brakes and almost lost control, but my guardian angel was watching over me and no one got hurt (me; the deer; or anyone, including my mamaw, behind me). and then i got home at 10. so yes, i had a long day. time to have a little nighttime snack then hit the sack :o)

THE WEEKEND!!

today has been a fun day for me. first i got professional pictures done with my boyfiend (long story). he had won two $50 gift cards to the JCPenny's Photo place and he didnt have anything else to do with them so yea lol. it took us 15 minutes to get the pictures done but took 45 minutes to pay for them because another person's papers printed out before ours even though we were the first people to be photographed that morning (10 am!). but anyways, after that i thought i would go get my work schedule for this upcoming week. come to find out, i DONT work for the second week in a row so i think im going to keep that job (i get 40% off. no way am i giving that up), but im going to think about getting another job bc i need money. so after that, shane and i went to grab a bite to eat then i went to Pullman Square to see a movie with some old friends that i havent hung out with in a while. we saw the movie "Juno". its a really good movie, just kind of leads u to believe one thing about something going on then it changes things up and makes something totally unexpected to happen. then after that, we went to Max 'N' Erma's to eat (yea eating is basically all ive done today, and im going to do more later lol) and then i came home. and its only 3:30 pm. cant wait for the rest of the day lol.

ANOTHER Snow Day!! YAY

well, again, we have a snow day. WOOOOOOO!!! and for some reason i woke up early this morning and cant go back to sleep so what do i do? blog...and watch spongebob squarepants. chewy was restless last night and this morning so i think i got a total of 6 hours of sleep. i thought she may have needed to go outside so i got out of my warm, cozy bed, put on my coat and shoes, took her outside, and what does she do? nothing. she cant seem to "go" in the snow. she has to see green grass and since there is none, she goes in the laundry room downstairs. she such a spoiled princess lol. well, im kinda hungry so im going to go find something to eat and maybe upload some new pictures onto my computer. ill blog a little later in the day :o)
