Entry: thank God for the moon... Thursday, September 09, 2004



   Wow, can you believe it... it's only been 3 days since my last entry and I'm blogging again!  I'm so proud of myself.  Anyway, the past couple of days have actually been pretty boring.  Nothing exciting at all.  Hopefully life won't stay this boring... I need some excitement!  haha
   Tuesday I went back to school after a long weekend, and lemme tell ya, I did NOT wanna go back.  I just get so depressed in the mornings when I have to wake up early.  Especially early in the week like on Mondays or Tuesdays.  I hate that, I really hate waking up depressed.  So yea, I woke up on Tuesday and went to school.  I was kinda mad cuz I had an away golf match that afternoon, where I was gonna get out of school at 2:40 so I wanted to park by the Gym so I could grab my stuff and catch the bus.  But that didn't happen, I got there too late, so I ended up just parking by the baseball fields, oh well.  It's amazing though, because almost every day since school's started, I've gotten to school only like 5 minutes before the final bell, however I always make it on time *knock on wood*.  Conclusion: I need to give myself more time in the morning, meaning I need to actually get out of bed when my alarm goes off.  Do you ever wake up in the morning to the sound of your alarm going off but can't for the life of you think of what that beeping sound is??  I do that all the time.  I wake up really confused cuz I can't figure it out, and then I realize that it's my alarm and then get out of bed to shut it off.  I hate that.  haha, I'm a dork.  So anyway, now that I've had my little A.D.D. moment... back to Tuesday.  Sherry wasn't there first period and we had Mr. Wilson.  He's this adorable little old man who doesn't know anything about social studies but it doesn't matter cuz he's so darn cute!  He explained this absolutely pointless project Sherry was having us do which was basically just copying a chart from our book onto a poster board.  I swear that class keeps getting more and more pointless every day.  I think it's my official least favorite class.  I mean, Ms. Sherry's a nice lady and everything, but she's not very strong in the teaching aspect.  So, instead of Amber and I working on our project like we should have been doing, we talked the whole time like we usually do and accomplished nothing... oh well... it happens.  English was boring as usual, still reading the Crucible.  It's an ok story, just the people in my class that read a lot are boring and monotone and that doesn't help the whole "lack of sleep" problem I tend to have 2nd period.  Lunch was good, as usual.  As Mihok and I were aiding in Val's room after lunch, Kyle was explaining to us how he needed to find someone to crewhead lights for "Rumors" because he's the only one who semi- knows what he's doing and he REALLY wants to assistant direct.  I felt really bad for him, and I told him I would do it if he really couldn't find anyone else, even though I really wanna crewhead props.  Lights wouldn't be too bad, I've always kinda wanted to learn how to do them.  The only problem is I wouldn't be able to do like anything else for the show and I wouldn't be able to be backstage.  But I'd be in the booth with Donie... that's always fun.  haha.  I dunno, I probably won't end up doing it, but I would like to do lights at least once before I graduate, maybe senior year.  Choir was alright, I really wish I was in Concert Choir.  I'm contemplating dropping choir next year and taking some extra classes if I don't get in next year, I haven't decided yet though.  I'm just hoping I make it.  Guliana sits next to me, and I have to say I'm very happy that she does.  I always thought she was kind of a brat, but I didn't really know her.  (just first impressions)  But it turns out that she's super nice and really funny, and I feel really bad that I ever thought bad about her.  Our songs are kind of stupid, but they always are.  TV was great.  We basically just did weekend stories all period, and I had a great one to tell.  Everyone liked the spa idea.  I felt cool... lol.  We finally got our textbooks and had some real reading homework.  It's alright though, it was bound to happen sometime.  I left TV early for our golf match and went to drive my car around to the gym.  We left for the game at Perkins (Thunderbird South)  and I played the 4th spot in the JV match.  Not exactly where I'd like to be, I'd like to be at least 6th on Varsity... hopefully sometime before the end of the season.  However, I got to play we Leila and two girls from Perkins.  I beat Leila and one of the other girls.  I played AWESOME.  I was so proud of myself.  I parred two holes and would have had a 51 if it weren't for the stupid last hole that I screwed up on.  I even had this awesome shot that went right in the hole for a par from like 150 yards away.  It was sweet.  I was so excited.  So overally Tuesday was a pretty good day, not bad. 
   Wednesday was picture day and me being the stupid geek I am about pictures I definitely woke up at 4:45 am so I could be at Leila's house at 5:30 am so she could do my hair.  I was so tired... I'm still recooperating from that one.  My hair turned out really sweet, it was all curly and stuff.  Then it started raining.  I was so mad.  It kinda ruined the front part of it, but oh well, I hope it didn't ruin the picture.  Leila's hair looked really sweet too, I straightened it for her.  We have the same hair, I swear it.  I wore my new plaid skirt and red shirt from AE that Catey and Leila picked out.  I looked pretty good I think.  I was gonna wear my stillettos.. but decided I was wearing a short skirt and it didn't look quite right, so I stuck with the infamous black flip-flops.  I finally got to school after what seemed like the longest morning ever, and went to first period.  Sherry was back, so we corrected our tests from the week before.  I actually didn't do too bad on it at all.  At least not nearly as bad as I thought I would.  What can I say... I can B.S. my way through any essay test as long as I semi- know the basic idea of what I'm writing about.  Amber and I worked on our projects which let's just say we're the biggest over-achievers ever.  If you've seen the posterboard you know what I mean.  We made it into like a stage with curtains and everything, it was sweet.  Then we went to get our pictures taken, and I think mine went ok.  You can never really tell, ya know?  2nd period was once again a boring day of the crucible, however we did get our independent reading lists.  I can't decided which book I wanna read though.  I mean, I dunno if I have enough time to read a big long book before October 1.  Especially with theatre starting next week, I'm gonna be super busy.  I hope I don't get so run down that I get sick :/  I think I'm either gonna read "Da Vinci Code" or "The Poisonwood Bible".  They both have bits of extra credit and that's alway good... considering how bad I did on my first two tests.  Well, when I got to lunch I was freezing cuz it's always cold in the cafetorium, so Steve gave me one of his sweatshirts to wear.  Thanks Steve.  Then I picked up my yearbook.  I like them, I suppose.  I think I liked last year's better.  I spent all of my aiding time with Val looking at my yearbook.  I felt kinda bad, like I was supposed to be helping, but I really wanted to look through it.  I think she understood.  Choir was the same as usual.  TV was good.  We went over his syllabus for the class and he told us some really funny stories. Conclusion: I love Mr. Lowrie... he's officially the most awesome teacher ever.  Any underclassmen reading this... TAKE TV!! It's a sweet class.  I think I'm really starting to warm up to it.  He assigned our first graded speech to us, but it's not due for another 2 weeks, maybe more depending on his lesson plans, so I'm not worried yet.  It has to be an informative speech and I have no clue what I want to talk about.  Any ideas??  After school I was supposed to have another golf match, but it was raining really hard so it got cancelled.  I was so happy.  I needed a nap.  So I took Mihok and Becky home and then came home and just kind of hung around.  I went over Amber's for like an hour to finish our Sherry project, then I came home, talked online, and slept.  It was a great night.
   Today was Thursday and I don't think I have ever been THIS tired.  I'm exhausted.  However, it's now 11:07 pm and I still have a current event article to do and I have to study for a vocab test tomorrow, but instead I'm blogging. I knew this would happen once school started... oh well.  I'm almost done.  I woke up late this morning, but still managed to look half-way decent.  I got to school just as the second bell was ringing, and still made it to class on time.  First period was once again completely pointless.  We copied notes from the overhead for like 30 minutes then just sat around and talked for the last 45 minutes.  I swear that is the most pointless class I've ever taken.  In english I almost fell asleep while reading the Crucible.  Lunch always wakes me up though, cuz it's always so incredibly cold in the cafetorium.  After lunch I went to visit Becky in the office for a little bit and then typed up a test for Val.  Choir was the same as usual, again.  We had an alto sectional today and I realized that this year's altos really stink.  Last year we really rocked, and I'm really dissapointd in us.  I wish I was section leader.  I should have tried for it.  In TV, Mr. Lowrie had another lecture day and it was kinda boring.  Oh well, tomorrow should be fun, we're just watching movies all day cuz Mr. Lowrie has a meeting during 4th period.  Oh yea, during the last 5 minutes of class, Mr. Lowrie took us on a 5 minute "field trip" to his front room where he keeps all his pictures of his past classes and their awards and stuff.  He told us all about everything and all about how we're gonna be up there someday and it was kinda cool.  I can't wait til that day.  So, I was praying for rain all day, and it definitely didn't rain so I had to go to golf practice today.  I got to golf with Catey, so that was cool.  I love her.  Z went with us, so we had to play almost every hole and we were the last group done.  Oh well.  Then we sat around and talked in the clubhouse for a half hour til our Parent/ Player meeting at 7.  I love my golf girls... they're all so funny.  Then we had our pointless meeting and I came home.  When I got home I made Mac n' Cheese and watched "Joey" and "The Apprentice".  I really should have been doing my homework so I could get to bed early, but I didn't.  It happens.  I'm a procrastinator.  So now it's 11:17 and I really need to get my stuff done so I can go to bed.  It's weird cuz I don't have any plans tomorrow after school.  I don't know if I'm going to the football game or not, we'll see.  Ok, I'm leaving now.  I love you all... sweet dreams.  Comment please.
