Happy New Year!!

for all those who read this.....Happy New Year!! have you made your new year resolutions yet?? mine are the basic lose weight and study harder and all that kind of stuff. but this next year i also want to find myself...... and for the guy update: no word yet....i am not exactly sure what to do...probably just wait to see if he does anything... i am nervous about it.

crushes part 3

so i think i really scared him off. he hasn't responded at all. i know he has been on because he has updated his webpage. it isn't a blog or anything. it is a history page. anyway.... i think i freaked him out or something because i haven't gotten an ok or anything. i think no response is worse than a turn down or ok sorta thing you know? i am such an idiot. i shouldn't have said anything. i am an idiot. i have no idea how to tell a guy that you like them!! i am so mad at myself.

crushes part 2

so i e-mailed him telling him that i liked him and all that. i couldn't really tell him in person because i haven't seen him since school ended and i don't have his phone # but i did have his e-mail address so i e-mailed him. i am not sure if that is the right way to tell a guy that you like him but i did. he hasn't replied or anything and he probably won't either. i probably scared him off. for thos who are interested his name is Chris. talking about girlfriend/boyfriends...my brother's girlfriend is coming to visit for like 10 days. you know what i just realized? my brother has a girlfriend, my sister has a boyfriend and my parents obviously have each other. i am the only one in the family without someone. i have never had a boyfriend either. that is kinda sad. i have never even kissed before. hopefully someday i will find the one.... sorry about the past couple of post about my lack of love life....

crushes

so how do you tell a guy that you have a crush on them?? do you go right out and say that you like them or what?? i just really want to tell this one guy that i really like him and all but i don't want to say it and then have everything become wierd because he doesn't feel the same way you know? grrrr..... this is so complicated!! anyone's input will be good!!

christmas

so i wrapped my christmas presents this morning. i am officially done with that!! :) i want to say MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone. and for everyone else that doesnot celebrate christmas i want to say happy hannuka, kwanza, or whatever you celebrate. i saw harry potter again yesterday!! it is kinda funny i really don't like dumbledore in this movie and i like snape in the movie. it is kinda the opposite than what i liked/didn't like in the book. i am rereading my harry potter books during the break. i am also rereading a lot of other books that i have. we are going to the race track tonight. it is going to be fun i hope! i can't believe that tomorrow is Christmas Eve.

grades part 4

my trig teacher just posted the grades! so here are the final results: Trig: A!! Economics: A!! History: A!!! biology: B chemistry: B so my GPA is a 3.39 that is the highest it has ever been! so i have totally surpassed my expectations by getting 3 A's and 2 B's. last spring and summer i only managed to get 1 A and i was going really going to try to get 2 A's this semester but it turns out that i got 3 A's!! i am so happy. i thought i was going to get a B in trig but i think i got an A. i think he curved it a little bit. i think i had an 88 so he probably gave a 2 point curve or something.

grades part 3

Economics: A!! History: A!!! biology: B chemistry: B yea!! i am so happy about my economics grade!! now i just have to worry about my trig grade!! but it could be forever before that grade is posted.

grades part 2

history: A!!!!!! biology:B chemistry:B i am so happy about the A in history!! so now i am waiting on economics and trig. i think i might get an A in economics. no idea about trig. that A made my day!! :) i just got back from doing some christmas shopping. i went to barnes and nobles and got 2 books for me and 2 christmas presents. so 4 down and 2 left. i think that is pretty good. so i have more than a week to get 2 presesnts. i first have to get some $$ out of my savings account. the 2 books i got are City of the Beast by Isabel Allende and Kingdom of the Golden Dragon by the same person. they are actually in a series. i read the City of the Beast in hight shool. i thought it was pretty good. so i am now going to reread it and then read the 2nd one.

grades...

my teachers are taking forever to grade my finals. i should have them by monday. i wonder what happens if the teacher doesn't put up my grade by monday because that is when they are due...... i am going to go christmas shopping later...i have 4 people left to get something for....

grades part 1

so here are my grades so far today: Biology: B Chemistry: B i don't know what my other grades are so far. my gpa has gone down from last semester. but hopefully some of my other grades will pick it up again. kinda hoping for an A in economics and history but i don't want to be disappointed if i totally messed up on those finals. going into the finals i think i had an A in those classes too. i really don't care about trig. nice teacher but he was totally disorganized and i don't think he was the right teacher for that class.

i am free!!!

i am finally done with finals!! no one has posted my grades yet. i don't really want to know either... i am so glad that it is christmas break. i don't have to worry about school or studying for a month!!

the new AIM

so has anyone seen the new AIM? it is called AIM titan or something like that. i am trying it out. i think i like it better than the old one but i am not sure yet. i just got it sunday so i am not sure what to think about it. but no problems yet. i have been writing my review of the harry potter movie but i am not done with it yet. i will post it when i am done. it will be probably thursday or so. did i ever write about the Jingle Jam concert? i don't think so. so i will write about it now!! it was so awesome!! most of the acts i really didn't know much about. i had recognized some of the songs that i had heard on the radio but i didn't know who they were by but now i do! the best act was of course the Backstreet Boys!! i so totally loved it!! and we had really close seats. about 10th row!! we weren't exactly sure how many rows were in the section before us but we were only 25 feet or less from the stage. i mean really close!! thanks Robin !!! she was the one that got u

finals

2 finals down, 2 left. just trig and economics. i don't want to see my grades. i don't think i will look at them until after christmas. anyway none of my next semester classes depend on them so i will be ok no matter what happens. well i don't think i actually failed but you never know what happens. i have tomorrow off and then a final on wednesday and thursday. i sold back some of my books today. i got $220 for them. i only returned the ones i had finals in today.

next semester

i get to see BSB tomorrow!!! YEA!! i am excited!!! i think we are also getting our christmas tree tomorrow too!! i love christmas trees. they smell so good! finals are next week. i have 2 on monday. tuesday off. wednesday and thursday each have one final and then i am done!! i will be off for a month!! i love college. well in the sense that we have long christmas and summer breaks. next semester i have a pretty cool schedule. here it is for those that are interested: Mondays: 1:30-2:50 Art History Tuesday: 10:00-11:20 Math 11:30-12:50 Speech 1:00-2:30 English 2 Wednesday 9:00-12:10 Government 1 1:30-2:50 Art History Thursday 10:00-11:20 Math 11:30-12:50 Speech 1:00-2:30 English 2 Friday NO CLASSES!!! so it think it is pretty cool. pretty much all my classes are in the middle of the week and mondays which are the worst days in the week i don't have to go in until 1:30!! and i love not having any friday classes again!! that was a pain this semester.

i am finally updating!!!

it was so cold today. i finally got to wear my Gryffindor scarf!! :) yea!! i was going to buy a blue book for my history final next week and the checker was like where did you get your scarf? and she knew it was a gryffindor scarf too!! and she was said she had lots of harry potter stuff like the movies and a wand just like me!! made me feel good. only finals left except for tomorrow's morning classes!! wohoo!!! i am so ready for christmas break!!

spring classes

so i have signed up for my spring classes. i made this really cool schedul. i have no friday classes. and mondays i only have one class that starts at 1:30!! on tuesday wednesday and thursday i don't have classes until 1o and i get out before 3!!! it is pretty cool.

school

so i finally got my economics midterm back today. i got a 94!! :) so i think i will probably get in an A in that class this semester. my economics teacher is giving us another take home test on thursday because we are so far behind because of the hurricane/teacher sick/getting hurt. pretty much a series of unfortunate events. she doesn't want to waste a class period on a test that will only take us like 30 minutes so she wants to use the class period to teach us what will be on the final instead so it works out for us because we will get a take home test and learn stuff that will be on the final. can't believe that there is only 4 weeks left of school. i might get an A in history too depends on how well i do on my final. i am not sure about trig. probably a B. i don't really care about that class. i probably shouldn't have taken it in the first place. i think i have decided on an accounting degree and the math class that they want finite math. i have also found out t

Disney Career Start Program

so at school they are having this disney program that you can apply for. it is this job at disney world you can have while you take these classes that help you decide what you want to do with your life. it sounds pretty cool. i am going to the progam on monday and you can apply for it there and have an interview. then they will offer you something in a couple of weeks i think. here is the link . check it out.

stuff

so i had a trig test today. i don't think i did as well on this one as i did on the first one. i hope i past though. i am starting to make my schedule for the spring. i don't think i have to take any more sciences!!! i am glad to get that out of the way. but i have to take english 1302. blah. oh well. but i think i am going to take finite math because at all the schools i am looking at they want finite math so i think i am going to take it in the spring. i am going to also try to take speech government and art history or economics or some combination of those or socialogy or pyschology. i don't know which ones but i am going to take some combination of those either in the spring or summer. very different classes from the ones i have been taking i think. but NO MORE SCIENCES!! i am happy about that. on-line registration started last monday but i am not sure what i am taking so i haven't signed up for anything yet. i won't get worried until after thanksgiving.

bsb

so i am watching extreme makeover home edition and they are doing this room for a girl who loves bsb. so the person who is in charge of her room actually went to a bsb concert and actually went onstage and had them sing to her and got stuff out of their dressing room. i wish that could happen to me!!!

christmas wishlist

Step One - Make a post (public, friendslocked, filtered...whatever you're comfortable with) to your LJ. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fun ("I'd love a Snape/Hermione icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, trulywant. - If you wish for real possible things, make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you. - Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ, or link to this post (it'll be public) so that the holiday joy will spread. Step Two -Surf around your friendslist (or friendsfriends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And

barnes and nobles

so ainsley and i went to barnes and nobles a little while ago. on the way there a cop pulls us over because the car's brake light was out. we have been telling my dad for about a month that my mom's car's brake light needs to be changed and that ainlsey's blinker needs to be changed. but of course he hasn't changed them. so hopefully he will do it now that we have been pulled over for it. we only got a warning. on a brighter note i got 2 books at barnes and nobles. the it girl and back in black. the it girl is a spin off from the gossip girls series with the same author. it takes one of the characters and she gets to be the star of the series. back in black is the 5th book in the A-list series. i love books!!!

school

so i got into Sam Houston this week. they already have the credits that i have taken. so i will probably end up going to sam houston. that is ok because i did like it there.

sick

so like this whole week i have been sick.....i think it was just a cold but it sure didn't feel like it. i went to class monday and tuesday but wednesday i couldn't stand it and i stayed home yesterday and today. i will probably try to go to school tomorrow. anyway i didn't exactly want to go to biology because tuesday my teacher was yelling at us because we couldn't answer her questions.....i personally couldn't answer because 1. my throat hurt so much and 2. i can't remember all the stupid bio stuff and i don't understand some stuff either so she should explain it all first so i can get it and not get mad.

astros.....

so i am going to watch the astros game in a little bit. i am excited. we are going to eat hamburgers and hotdogs while we are watching the game.......sorta like actually going to the game!!

no class!!

so i got to school this morning and i found out that my economics class got cancelled. so i came back home. it would have saved me an hour if she had sent me an e-mail but oh well at least i have some extra time at home until i have class this afternoon. i get to eat lunch at home too!! i wish my afternoon class would get cancelled too so i would have classes at all today but that won't happen!! i am still excited about the astro's win last night.

ASTROS WON!!

I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE ASTRO'S WON!! WORLD SERIES HERE WE COME!!! WOOHOOO!!!

facebook

so i am trying to go through listing in facebook to see who i want to add to my friends list and i will see people that i remember or i had classes with or i swam with or whatever and i will be like should i add them? because i never know if they will remember me. will they be like i was wondering when she would get on this thing and add me or who in the hell is the person i have no idea who you are even though i know we had classes together or whatever you know?? some people i have added to my list no knowing how they would respond and they added me too so i was happy about that too. hopefully some people will put me on their friends list first so it will make me feel good when i get an e-mail saying this person has added you to their friends list do you accept or whatever the e-mail says but it is something like that. anyway it lets you know who your friends are. my first person on my list was my best friend!!! yea!!!

OMG!!

i can't believe the astros game last night!!! we almost one!! geez if it hadn't been for that last inning!! so i have finally got to download songs from iTunes because i got a gift card. yea!! it is fun..... i love downloading songs. but i have almost used up the money on it. i got a 100 on my trig test!! but it took my teacher long enough to grade them.

i am on facebook.com now!!

Facebook me!

grrr...

so i have not gotten my math test back yet....i am so mad about that.....my teacher is so lazy!!i got my economic test back i did ok.....lets just say i passed. nothing much is happening. i gave murphy a bath today. and HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROBIN!!
Image
this is my dad. we went out front to take pictures. you can tell it is dark. but it turned out to be a joke of a hurricane....... 
Image
this was during the hurricane still and we went outside to try to keep the drains clear in case it poured, it would be able to drain out of our backyard. murphy has already found a stick to chew on.... 
Image
this is in the middle of the hurricane. i took a picture of the sky. it looked so dark i thought we would get tons of rain but we didn't 
Image
this is from the hurricane. look at the big branch that fell into the pool. murphy will try to get it out and chew on it.  
Image
this was a couple days ago when they exchanged mums/garder.  
Image
this is ainsley and her date for homecoming sean. are they cute?? sean is really cute. those are the homecoming shirts for sean's school. they will go to ainsley's homecoming in like 2 weeks. i will probably post a picture of ainsley and her dress tonight before they go to the dance. 

tests

so i had a chemistry test and an economics test already this week. i got an 88 on the chemistry test and i will get my economics test back tomorrow. hopefully. on friday i will have a trigonometry test. i think i will do ok on it because i have already learned it before in high school. but i won't get my hopes up or anything.

it is finally october!!

so i am all by myself today. i have no idea what to do. i guess i am just i am just a boring person. woohoo!! we went to best buy last night to do some shopping. i can't say everthing we got but i got the full house season 1 on dvd. did you know that they had another first episode that had a different actor play danny tanner? i didn't know that until i saw that on the dvd.

mini vacation

so my 4 day weekend has been extended to a 6 day weekend! i don't have to go back to school until wednesday!! wohoo!! guess what i have been doing to my computer the past day?? i have been reloading everything onto my computer. i got that trojan through instant messanger in may and i have never been able to get it to go away because it replicates itself so if you delete it and then turn off your computer and then turn it back on it will reappear. and then for some strange reason yesterday i could log on to the internet with my computer but i could do it on everyone else's computer. so i just decided to clear everything off of my computer and reinstall everthing. even xp. so i was up until 5:15 this morning just clearing everything off and reloading xp. then i went to sleep. i got up right before noon and started reloading drivers and utilities and the internet on to my computer. that is how i can be on the internet right now. it sorta gave me a change to clear off all the thing

i survived!! hahaha!!

so hurricane rita was kinda a joke for me and where i live! so it was supposed to be really bad but all i got was a lot of wind. it barely sprinkled. we had power out from 2:30 am this morning to sometime between 6:00 and 7:30 pm. i am not sure because it was getting hot in my house and we weren't sure what we were going to do for dinner so we went for a car ride for the air conditioning and so we could listen to the radio and see how things looked around the area. most people had just lots of branchs down. someone around the corner from me had a tree tip over. but it didn't go into their house. we have power now. so when we got home it was on. i took some pictures that i will post in a few minutes. i don't have school until wednesday. neither does my sister. my mom doesn't have to go back to work until wednesday either.

the wind.....

right now we haven't had anything yet. we have had some gust of wind. we haven't had any rain yet. just wind. we have brought in all of our stuff from outside and we have taped up some windows. we still have power. i am hoping that it will stay on because they say that the hurricane is turning a little bit but you never know what we are going to get. i will probably not update until next week because i am going to take apart my computer and pack it all away in my closet where there are no windows to break and get water into. i hope that doesn't happen either!!

getting prepared

so we are mostly prepared. we got food and some water and all that. we have brought in most of the stuff that was outside. just a few little things left to bring in before it comes. today my mom had me go around and take pictures of all of our stuff just in case we get totally flooded out and have to go to the insurance and stuff.so i took tons of pictures of inside and the outside of our house and cars and stuff. then i downloaded it to my computer. then i burned it to a cd. so all these pictures are in 3 different places: camera memory card, cd, and computer so hopefully at least one of those will be left if we get flooded. i don't think we will get flooded out that bad where i am. i think at the worst just the roads will be flooded. i just hope. we will just to see how much rain we get here. oh i also did laundry just in case we lose power and don't get it back for a while. we found all this camping stuff that we used to take out on camping trips so we will be able to cook

hurricane

so i was watching the news and they have reporters down in galveston. they were talking about how the moon was blood red down there. i think that is kinda creepy.

getting prepared....

so my parents are at the store getting batteries and food and all that. i charged up my phone and my ipod is still charging. i want to be prepared. i want to keep these things charged up for when the power goes out which i hope doesn't happen but i am sure it will. i am starting to get scared about this. but of course everyone is going to make a big deal about this and then it won't be that bad and then everyone will get mad about freaking out. i sorta wish we were leaving but then i would worry about my house and all my stuff. i am sure once it gets to where i am it won't be as bad. hopefully we will just get a lot of rain and hopefully we will get to keep the power. i don't mind rain.

school cancelled!!!

yeah!! school is cancelled for the rest of the week starting at 3pm!!! check it out here! i am going to enjoy my 4 day weekend!! expecially since my economics class has a test tomorrow and now i don't have it!!! but i bet i will have to go to the store to get water and all that. but i heard some funny stories about trying to get water at walmart. my history teacher saw these 2 ladies fighting over the last thing of water at walmart. it is so funny. we have some water but it is in those little bottles. be carefully you guys and evacute before it is too late. i probably won't have to but you never know!!

yea....school!!

so school has been really busy. i can't believe it is almost 4 weeks into it! a 1/4 of the way through!! yeah!! only 12 weeks left. but it feels like school just started. it is going so fast. i can't wait until christmas.september is almost over. just 10 more days until october. i am reading the runaway jury by john grisham. it is a good book. i am about 300 pages into it. i have another book by him called the street lawyer. i am going to read it next! i hope it is just as good.i love to read. i still have a huge stack of books that i want to read. i will eventually get through them. i want to finish most of them by next august if i can so when i move to a new school i would have finished most of them and i won't have to worry about them. and it will just get them off my floor.

an update!

so i guess i have finally decided to update. life has been crazy. i got a new phone on sunday. andrew came home this weekend. murphy was so happy to have him home. he got so mad at andrew when he was packing up to go home on sunday. well i have to go take the dogs on a walk right now.

a not so daily update

so i gave the dogs a bath today so that andrew can see that i am taking care of his dog just fine. he is coming home tomorrow for the weekend. britney spears had her baby. i got an 89 on my first chemistry test.

remember

so today is the 4th anniversary of 9-11. everyone still remember where you were 4 years ago? i do. sophomore year. it first happened at the end of first period but we didn't really hear about it until 2nd period. 2nd period we went and watched the news in one of the other classrooms. i think most of the rest of the day we watched the news in the rest of my classes. if you want you can comment and post where you were or do it on your own blog.

my doggies.....

so i was watching the news this morning and they had this part about rescueing all the animals that were left behind after the hurricane. most of them have been starving for a week. and there was the farm that had a goat. it was still fenced in its cage and when the water got really high he tried to keep his head up above the water. so when they found it after the water had gone down they found it caught on the fence dead. it basically hung itself trying to stay above the water. it was so sad. they actually showed it on tv............i started to cry because it was so sad. think of all the animals left behind when the owners left. so there is an organization going into all the houses and collecting all the animals and feeding them. they said they are leaving notes behind to tell the owners that they took them and where to find them. and then they showed reunions with the owners. it was so happy. i would not leave without my doggies!!!! i love them too much!!

something more than pictures.....

so i hope you guys like all the pictures i put up. the dogs are both curled up next to me on both sides of my desk. they are tired. i took them on 2 long walks today. it is the end of another week. only 14 weeks left of the semester. my brother is coming in next weekend. you know i always think of great things to post and then i forget them when i do post. the humidity has been pretty low this week. it feels so much better here even thought it is still in the 90s. i think we are about to go out to eat so i will update later!!
Image
the turtles are cool too!! 
Image
i love finding nemo!! dori is so funny!! 
Image
this is murphy in my brother's room. we will find him curled up in there sometimes usually after we are gone and then come back we will find him in there 
Image
all the dogs like to lay in my room and sleep!! there is ben by my door. and you guys can see all my books next to my bed and all my shoes by the white cabinet where my tv is. i told you i read a lot there are even more books on the other side of my room!! 
Image
he likes to sit on the stairs and just wait for you to come up or down. but this day i saw him just lay down on the step. it is really cute!! 
Image
murphy likes to curl up on my bed and sleep. he is so adorable! 
Image
my chem teacher has these hard candies that taste like coffee. they are so good!! so during class she would just hand them out to people that want them 

internet

so today we hooked up my sister's computer to the DSL. she is happy to have her AIM again.

the week in summary

so it is friday night. i am watching forrest gump on tv. i love the dsl because i can be anywhere and still be on the internet. my sister is swim team captian. she has a whole bunch of people over from the team so the rest of us are in my parents room so they can have the tv in the playroom. so i am here watching tv and posting here. the first week of school is over. i only had a half day today. i love that. so i was home for lunch. i got to relax all afternoon. i feel asleep in front of tv. i took the dogs on 2 walks as i always do. so i like most my teachers so far. my math teacher sometimes doesn't seem like he knows what he is doing but he seems nice. i am glad i got the study guide for the book so hopefully i can understand all the stuff. anyway i learned a lot of this stuff in precal.

lol

so i all yesterday i thought it was september 1st!! but i didn't figure out until today that today is september 1st!! so i am still glad that it is finally september. the first week is almost over. tomorrow i only have a half day!! i get out at 11:20 AM!!! yeah!! this is the first semester i have had to have classes on friday. oh well at least it is only a half day.

stuff

so the first week of school is almost over. only 2 more days!! it is finally september!!! hopefully it will start to cool off soon!!! it is so hot!! you can get so sweaty from standing outside for only a minute!!

first day of school

so today was the first day of school. my alarm didn't go off so i got up late but it was only 7:45 so i wasn't late to school or anything. but i could only take murphy on a short walk down the street instead of the usual length. but when i got home there was nothing torn up so i guess it was ok. it poured for like 10 minutes during my biology class.

i took this picture when i had to go to the jewish synogogue for my world religion project. i saw this in the parking lot. i thought it was pretty funny. 

textbooks

so my mom and i went to get my books for this semester. i was able to get them all. it cost $725. that is with tax. there was a $50 tax!!! but i got those study guides and answer solution books. i really want to do really well this semester. so i got everything that could help. i think i am all ready for school to start. only 2 days left before i start. i am nervous. i cleaned up my room so i won't have to worry about it when school starts. it is also easier to do homework when everything is clean.

i have been Tagged!!

so i got tagged today by Carl . so i have to post five unique, obsessive traits on my blog and pass it on to five of my blogging friends. i will give it my best try. 1) i love to write letters and get mail. 2) i like to do laundry and the dishes!!! i don't know anyone else that likes to do it. 3) i am collecting all the 50 state quarters as they come out each year and put them on a map that i have 4) i love to read. i have books piled up next to my bed waiting to be read. someday i will post a picture of all the books i have just in my room. i have donated tons of books over the years and some got put in the bookshelves in my playroom. my sister says reading is not good for your brain. can you tell she doesn't like to read. 5) i collect pennies. every time i get a penny i put it into a jar. i only started this a couple years ago but the last time i cleaned out the jar it had at least $4.50 in it. it is only a 10 oz glass coke bottle. this is supposed to be a chain thing. i am n

finals

i am officially done with summer school!! i just finished my bowling final. if i do well on the final i will get an A but most likely i will get a B in the class. Vacation time!!!

stuff

going to take my bowling final. i hope it goes ok. last night i watched lord of the rings on tv!! can you believe it? i watched friday night too!! i saw an advertisment for forest gump on tnt(i think that is the channel). they are showing it next week.

so bored

wow i haven't been so bored in a long time. i really have nothing to do. i could start doing laundry but i am being lazy i guess and that won't keep me occupied for very long because once you sort it and put it in the washer you have like 45 minutes of nothing to do. i am lame.

grades

well my chemistry grade was posted and i got a B. that means i got above a 50 on the final. i am kinda disappointed that i didn't get an A but at least i got one A this summer in world religion. my GPA went up this summer. i slept in pretty late today. my first day of my one week vacation. except for sunday where i have my bowling final. that is going to be interesting because i have no idea what to expect and i have no idea how i am doing in the class because we have no homework or just one test that was only like 10% of our grade so it won't affect our grad at all. but i got an 80% on that test so if you base it on that test i would have a B. but attendence is like 40% of our grade so i 100% on that. oh well. we will see by monday. no real plans for the week except for a dentist appointment and i have to go get my books but that is about it. i am hoping some of my friends will want to do some stuff before school starts again.

finals

so i had my world religion final this morning. i did terrible on the final but i got the 30 points i needed to get my A!!!! i don't know my chemistry grade yet but i hope it is a B! now i am on my break!! well except for my bowling final on sunday. but i am not too worried about that.

school

so i had my chemistry final today. i think i did ok. i am not sure. i tried all the problems so hopefully i get partial credit on everything. if i get over a 50 i will have a B. if i get an A on the final i will get an A in the class. tomorrow is my world religion final. i only have to get a 30 to get an A in the class. i got an A on the project where we had to go to another religion's church service. i didn't think i wrote that good of a paper but i didn't get a perfect 100 on it. i got a 90 i think. 180/200 points. i think. so i have 870/1000 points so far and i have to get 900 to get an A so just 30 more points and i will have an A!!! :) i have no idea what i have in bowling. we will have to see when i take the final on sunday. i have a week off after all my finals.

DSL

so we got DSL!! i love it so far!! :) i have my chemistry final tomorrow (which i guess is today because it is like 1AM) i am nervouse about it. if i absolutely blank out and can't do anything on the test i still get a C but if i get a 50 or higher i get a B and if i get 100 i can get an A. i will be happy with a B but it would be great to get an A!!! :)

even more...

i just keep thinking of more to say. yesterday i paid for my fall classes and the line was so long. but someone came through and told all the people that were paying it in full could go to this express line. so it bumped me up from like 10th in line to 2nd so that cut out 15minutes of waiting in line!! lots of people were doing this installment plan thing. but i have hardworking parents that can put down $700 at one time for my tuition. i love my parents!! there were so many people there trying to register too. and i heard one person ask an advicer what to do if they couldn't get any classes that they wanted to take. i don't remember what the advicer said but i just remember thinking that i was glad i went ahead and signed up for classes even thought i ended up signing up for economics instead of english. but i got all the other classes that i wanted. i was waiting to see if they would put up the english teachers but they haven't so i just signed up for economics. anyway

more....

so i have finished my 2nd to last week of school. next week is finals!!! i am nervous. but all my homework is done. i just have to study for the finals and do the project for my world religions class. i have done the hard part of going to the church service. i just have to write a paper. so i am going to do that this weekend. also he gave us a couple of extra credit assignments so i am going to do that this weekend too. i have a B in world religions. i was kinda scared for a while because i did horribly on the 2nd test but i did well on the 3rd test so it made up for it!! and hopefully the 75 points of extra credit will help too!! 1 week to freedom!!

DSL

Guess what?!!! We are getting DSL!!!! I never thought that we would get anything better than dial-up. But a couple days ago my dad was like we are getting DSL!! So the service starts next Tuesday. They are suppose to be sending us our modem soon. And I have to get a wireless card so I can get on the network because we are going to have a wireless network. And my computer does not have a wireless card, it just has and Ethernet card in it and a dial up modem. but my brother has a wireless card for his old laptop so we are going to see if it will work on mine. i think his new computer came with a wireless card so he won't need the other one. I AM SO EXCITED!! we can all be on at the same time and get phone calls at the same time!! i think that is what i am going to like the best. i mean the speed is going to be a plus but i would get yelled at to get off the internet so someone can use the phone or get on the internet. so now i can stay on as long as i want and i won't block pho

stuff

so finals are coming up. i am nervous. i think i will get A's and B's in my classes. so i am ready for my week off. i registered for my classes today. i am taking Bio 1406, chem 1411, hist 1302, econ 1402, and math 1316. i think those are the correct numbers. not sure. but you get the idea of the classes i am taking. i was going to take english 1302 but they didn't put up the teachers and you have to pay by thursday so i decided to take the other classes. anyway i didn't have room in my schedule for any of the english classes. they were at times that i had other classes and i could not move those so i am going to take english in the spring. it rained yesterday and today. i love rain.

Stuff

So for all of those that got on AIM today may have noticed that I was on all day!! Um that was because I am at my mom's office today. I love the internet here. I have also finished all my chemistry homework for the rest of the semester!!! So I just have to study for the final. But I still have to do some world religions stuff but that is all!! I went to a Jewish synogue(sp?) last night! It was really interesting. so i just have to write a report on it or do a presentation. i think i might do the presentation. i got some good pictures so i think it would be fun to do the presentation. and easier. i hate writing papers.

Randomness

I hate that time of the month....... It makes you feel really bad for a few days. I am sure all girls can relate to this!! So now I officially have 2 weeks left of school!! One week of normal classes and then finals!! ainsley starts in a week. So does Andrew. Sorry to say this but I can't wait until he leaves. He is on my case about everything!! And last night he tried to tell us that the shuttle explosion 2 years ago was not over regions weekend but it so totally was. I remember being in the hotel room watching the news and them showing the explosion!!! And when I said this he was like no stupid!! It was not over regions!! I was like yeah it was!!! It was the year that regions was early and that it was a week after districts. Just because I go to community college does not mean I am stupid even though it feels like everyone treats me like I am. I think I am pretty smart. I have above a 3.0 GPA. I am not going to say what it is because it is going to change in 2 weeks so it really

August!!

so it is august 2nd!! i have 2 and half weeks left of summer school!! yeah!! then i have a week off and then i get to start the fall semester. wohoo!!! nothing much is really going on. just school mainly. i sorta want to go on a roadtrip during my week off but i don't think it will happen. most likely i will just sit at home and watch tv and go to the gym. i was thinking about joining a bowling leauge. they start in september and there is this start wars one that you can get a ball and a ball bag for joining!! so i think i might do that one. and it is on sundays so it won't get in the way of anything.

summer

i don't do very well about updating here. umm....nothing is going on. i keep asking people if they want to go bowling but no one ever does. i think i will go tomorrow by myself. i need to practice.

new additions to my page

so if you guys go down the side bar i put in this section a list of classes that i am taking this semester. i will update it each semester with a list of classes i am taking.
so wow i haven't updated in a while!!! not much is going on right now. i am still in summer school but there is only 4 weeks left!!! yeah!! i can do it . so far i have an A in chemistry, a B in religion and i have no idea what i have in bowling. i think my teacher is going to do a lot of our grading on our average in leauge play and she gave us this scale at the begining of the semester saying if our average is this number you will get this grade and all. well so far my bowling average after the first week of leauge play is a 74. that is an F on the stupid scale. i am probably the only one that is going to fail that part of the class. i am sorry if i am not a great bowler!! i have practiced a lot this summer and i have improved a lot but i have not gotten over a 100 in bowling. you have to bowl over a 124 to get an A. so i am a little scared about that. i think it should be more of if you have improved over the semester than what your actual bowling average is. there are lots of p

harry potter and stuff

so on saturday i went to get hp and hbp. i have already finished it. i thought about going to the barnes and nobles party friday night but my mom had past it when she was out shopping with my brother and it was really crowded and it was only 9:30pm so i decided not to go. but i was able to get it saturday. when we went there was a huge pile of them in the front and by the time we left they were almost gone!! it was nuts and they also had tons of boxes full of them behind the check out!! so only 4 more weeks of summer school. i have an A in chemistry. i think i have a B in world religions but after todays test i am not so sure. we will have to see on monday. so it has been raining almost every day for the past week or so. i like it unless i have to drive in it and i can't see where i am going.

rain rain go away.......not really

so it has been raining here everyday for the past couple of days. i like rain. but yesterday i had to drive in it and sometimes i could hardly see where i was going! ben is scared. but i went to north harris yesterday to do this wellness unit that i have to do with my bowling class. so you look at this slide show first to get all the info. it took me like 3 hours to copy all of it down. then you take a test. you can take it twice. so i took it once while i was there and i got an 80%. so i am going to study the info for a little and take the test again in a week or two. i just knew that if i didn't take it then it would be the week it is due and i wouldn't have any time to take it. so it has really started to rain and thunder and lightning. i was going to go to the gym but it is raining so hard i am not sure if i could see where i am going. i think i might go to the midnight harry potter party if someone would go with me.

school

i started a new class. intro to world religion. i want to learn more about other religion. my teacher seems really cool. but we have this project where we have to go to a church service of another religion that isn't your own. like i am christian so i can't go to like a catholic service or baptise service i have to go to like a muslim or buddhist service. i think i am going to a jewish service because i have been interested in the jewish religion but it isn't christian you know? so i am a little nervous/scared about that but other than that i am excited. my teacher has put all the notes on his webpage and all the studyguides and homework sheets so we can download it and just write on it in class. i like that. so you don't have to be busy writing down the stuff on the slides. you can actually listen to the teacher and understand the stuff. we got some of our chemistry homework back and i now have an A!!!! after my test i had a high B but with my good lab report and homew

Rain!!

so after like a month of no rain, we get 2 nights of thunderstorms!! i love rain!!so i am half way through summer school. i got my lab report back and i got a 99!!! i guess that is all the news i have for right now!!

holidays

so still nothing going on. i signed up for another class for during the second session. it is intro to world religions. it covers all different religions around the world. i think it would be interesting to learn about other peoples religion. so i will be getting 8 credits this summer and will have 21 credits at the end of the summer. so i think i am now only 3 classes behind. that is better then the 6 classes that i was behind. so we didn't shoot any fireworks off yesterday. i watched some of the fireworks shows on tv though. i am trying to plan my fall schedule. i am trying to wait to see if any of my old teachers are teaching any classes this fall so i can take their class.

stuff

so nothing exciting is going on. i got my first chemistry test back. i got an 82%. i think most of the points she took was wrong but of course she won't change it even after i ask her about why she took it off. she is just like look in your book. oh well at least i didn't fail. and she drops the lowest grade at the end of the semester. andrew gave me a whole bunch of books out of his room. he actually used to read fantasy books. he has a whole bunch of star wars books. and other ones that i had never heard off. i am going to start reading them soon. i finished reading the DaVinci Code. it was really good. my brother let me borrow angels and demons by the same author that wrote the DaVinci Code. it is good so far. Happy 4th of July

life continues

so my life continues with no major events. i continue to go to school and all that. i might go bowling later. i need to practice. i also need to do laundry but i have done the hard part of sorting so i just need to put the clothes into the washer and there it goes.

CD

so i got the BSB cd yesterday. it is pretty good. i have already loaded it onto my iPod. i went to my first study group today. i was the one helping everyone else. tomorrow i have a doctor appointment. ainsley has her senior pictures tomorrow. nothing else is going on.

long time!!

sorry i haven't updated. nothing has really happened to me lately so i never had anything to write. summer school started last week. i decided to just take chemistry and Bowling. so i only have school 3 days a week and i don't have to get up early or anything!!! harry potter and the half blood prince comes out in 34 days!! i blew a tire on sunday when i was going to bowling. so my parents brought me another car so i could go to class while they put the spare on my car. so they take my car and go shopping and when they start going home the spare went flat so they ended up having to have it towed. it is really funny because i got a flat on one side of the highway and they had their flat on the other side of the highway right across from where mine was!! sorta ironic. but now we got a new wheel on my car but we have to have the spare fixed now. so check your spares every once in a while. my mom says she might have all of our spares checked.

stuff

i got a hair cut today. it is a little bit above my shoulders. murphy got in the pool today and swam around. he is pretty good little swimmer for a dog. i start summer school tomorrow. i am a little nervous. i have had a nice 3 week break. my first class is at 8am!! i am going to have a tough time getting up and moving.

stuff

so yeah i have a trojan on my computer. i think i have gotten it off my computer. well anyway after i realized what it was i blocked it from getting internet access so hopefully it won't go to any of my friends. so i am sorta enjoying my 3-week english class. we had to do lots of boring reading but soon we will get into reading stories and poems and stuff so that won't be too bad!! and the papers don't sound too bad. we have to do 5 critical analsysis on stories that we will read in the book and it only has to be one page. it will be turned in on the last week but i have already done one. we are turning the first one in tomorrow so she can look at them and see if we have the right idea and make corrections and stuff. and then we had to pick a story to present on during the next 2 weeks. i pick this story called A good man is hard to find by Flannery O'Connor. it is sorta interesting but i haven't read the whole thing yet so this could turn out to be an interesting

WARNING!!!

for all AOL instant messanger users!!!! there is a trojan going around!!! it will come through people on your buddy list and you might think it is an inoccent file but it isn't!!! it is a trojan!!! and if you get a wierd message from me saying look at this don't open it!!!!!
