I am so sleep deprived and stressed right now. I don't get to bed till after 12 and I can't take naps so there is no where to run..
I have only 2 honors classes and ensemble and I feel sooo stressed. My english teacher (whom I hate hate hate hate hate) is one of those teachers that goes for *critical thinking and essays* over matching. MALARKY!!!!!!!! She assigns 2 long essays a day for us to read and then answer a thousand questions on them. I don't give a flip why it was writen. I justtt don't care!! I want to burn the book!! BURN IT!!!!!!!! it is called The Norton Sampler by Thomas Cooley and it is the essay book straight from hell... it is... and also alot of vocab words to help on the SAts
And since French 3 is kinda taking off like indepentant study, there is so much we don't remember and are squeezing new stuff in. I feel like my head is going to explode. Thank God for Ensemble, that is all I am going to say.
and AH, this friday is when I start World Civ, my college class that is gonna be given at the school. mon, weds, and fri are the class dates. tues and thurs will be my only sleep in 1 hour days.
I have a headache already. That means I will be having NO SLEEP FOREVER. I started this Sat Prep clas saturday and it will be EVERY saturday for 8 weeks. 9am to 12:30!!! NO SLEEP. I have to get up at 7:30 b/c it takes 30 mins to get there. 8 weeks! its supposed to raise your points on the sat by AT LEAT 150. lord, if my score doesn't change, i will CRY CRY CRY. I am shooting for 1300s so bad. All 8 weeks costs over 500. that is a big hunk to gamble on. he assigned 4 practice tests, 50 vocab words to memorize, and other stuff... I still need to register for the SAT. But going on sat, i realized it was helpful. Dr.Frawley is a really good teacher and is going over alot. I FINALLY understand rates and probability. It used to baffle me, but I finally understand, so thanks Doc!
Okay, so get this. The only day I have to sleep in is.......SUNDAYS! um, the day I go to church, ya know, where I used to have to get up early, but compared my other days, this is the longest I get to sleep. I get up for church at 8:30am for Sunday school.
Ever get that drowning feeling? I have it. I just feel so much pressure, and things haven't really started yet. There is gonna be more to do as the year goes on, clubs like FCA, key club and Beta Club and all this stuff. so glad I am not doing a fall/winter sport or I would crack like an egg...
here is what I am wearing to lighten the mood, lol
From Chartres: (store Etam) this turqoise sleeveless top that says "Khaki Urban in white broken letters (mind you, it isn't french..but lots of the shirts were in english, go figure!) and a white matching belt that said the same think and same font in black letters.....so matching top and belt!
From Amboise:(store Cache) these awsome earings. faux diamond studds and long silver earrings.
From Rouen: These turqoise flip flops that with cool square sequins that catch the light.
....pants,purse, and ring from America..lol
side note.. anyone watching the olympics? I now have a little crush on Michael Phelps.. He is cute, but is such an awsome swimmer. Ian Thorpe(aussie) is cute to and good too, tho I root for Phelps when it comes to the two for 2 obvious reasons.
*i am such a girlie girl...lol*
I like watching men and women gymnastics too. The Chinese men are awsome and the romanian and chinese girls are doing awsome, but i hope usa girls edge up more..Gotta stick to my country..
I love watching the olympics b/c of all the different people. I root for my team, but love to see the other talented athletes from the different countries. It is amazing how people can be so flexible, fast, and strong!!
I started school this past Thursday. I was dreading it (Lord, I hate school so bad) but I had a nice day. Lotsa people got all dressed up and out, but I dressed kinda down. I wore a cute pink wifebeater(have no idea why people call them that, but whatever) with matching pink sandles, both from old navy, new flared jeans, a hot pink belt with black writing that I got from paris, this shell necklacke that is in the shape of a flower, and these awsome hollywood looking dangly earring with pink crystals in it that I got at Charlotte Russe (I wish I have that store here!!) and I had my black, hot pink stripped purse from Paris. So Now you all know exactly what I was wearing, lol. I have been reading this series, called "Gossip Girl" and it always is describing clothing and name brands, so thought I would do that here, lol
anyways.... I got to school 8 to 8am and parked on top. Going into the school, people were filling into the gym. When I got in the gym, the first set of bleachers were already filled in and the second set where filling in. I spotted my friend matt and sat by him. And good Lord!! Therer are sooooooooo many freshman. It is overwhelming. I hardly know anyone now. The only class I know is mine, lol.
We went to homeroom first, then went to the media center, b/c the people who have a college class, cyber class, or career center had to go in there to get situated. After that was English 4 honors with my snooze-worthy ex yearbook teacher. She didn't seem to harbor ill feelings for me quiting (and not even calling to say I did) but I still hate her. She is so annoying. She ALWAYS ALWAYS wears her hair in a odd frenchbraid that is started on the left side and ends on the right (I swear, if she lets it go, it would probably fall back into place) and she could snort you up with her nostrils. If you only knew...if only..
Then straight to ensemble. They put new doors and window on the builing. I really liked my ensemble class and was glad that we were the seniors. The seniors from last year in ensemble were the really snobby, bitchy, stuck up ones and I am glad they aren't there anymore. For lunch, or lunchroom was totally changed. They painted it and put a couch and crap in the corner. The lunch program (I guess in all NC?) was taken ver by the state, so we have a new system. We had so much options and the food tasted....good! I had a sub, that tasted as good as subway. The lunch lady waited for us and we told her what to put on it. That was one good sub, i'm telling ya..lol. They also made a condiment table, which is so much better then holding up line ot put stuff on.. I got a good table with a bunch of my friends.
Last period was French 3. French 2 and 3 were mixed in a class, so 3 and 2 were separated. Only 4 (including me) me were taking french 3, so we were in the back together. It is gonna be hard with only a few of us, b/c most of it will have ot be learned by ourself, like independent study..
The best part of the day was....*ta da* the senior bell. After waiting for 3 years, it is so good to be able to leave a few minutes before the rest of the classes, woo hoo!!
Friday-even though we didn't have a first period, us who were taking a college class had to come for homeroom to fill out forms and then stay in the media center for 1st period. See, college classes/and/cyber room classes don't start till the 19th or 20th (mine is the 20th). So, woo hoo, as of monday thro the 19th, I don't have to come for 1st period, yay!!.
In the media center, I bought the used book the teacher had for World Civilizations (bought it for 70, both.. if i went to the college bookstore, it would have cost me 140 dollars!!) and bought my parking tag for the top... She wasn't supposed to sell them till monday in the morning, but we wouldn't be there in the morning...
In 2nd period, we took a test on Wuthering Heights. I HATE WEIRD NELSON!!!!!! It was the kind of test I hated, long with critical thinking and discussion. BLAH!..
3rd.. well, we did nothing in Ensemble.. Nice.
4th.. French 3 did barely nothing while mrs williams when through review with french 2, which was okay, b/c I didn't wanna do anything..lol..
When I was leaving school, I tried calling my voice mail on my phone but it was all screwy and was telling me that the password was incorrect. When I got home, I used out phone to call my cell for messages, and it got through..
I had a hair appointment at 4 oclock, so I left for it. I tried calling my cell phone number with mine to get voice mail, but when I dialed MY phone number, a guy picked up. I was confused, and was like, how do you have my cellphone number?! After talking, I realized that it dialed my friend matt's number. He thought I was joking, but I wasn't. I was like I DIALED my cell phone number and check and sure enough, yes I did dial my number. So My cell is screwed up. Maybe it is b/c we are swtiching to carolina west?! But now, if i dial my cell phone number on my cell phone, it calls matt... grr, stupid phone!! I can't wait till I get my new phone. My dad ordered new phones with carolina west. my dad and I are getting flip phones and my mom is getting an ordinary one... I want that flip phone!! lol
Thats it for now... cbl!!
School starts this thursday and I am dreading it. I absolutely loath school. The only thing good is I have things to wear, lol
I'll start off last thursday, after my emerald point trip. My mom and I went to see The Bourne Supremacy, which I recommend everyone to see (altho watch the Bourne Identity first). I lovee matt damon in action roles.
Friday...I went to library, returned Identity, and went to kohls to get some jeans and a shawl b/c they were having a nice little sale, lol.
Saturday..I am drawing a blank, lol. What in the world did I do???
Sunday..went to church, some guys who went to other churches came. Collin (who I did indoor and outdoor track with) came b/c heather is his girlfriend and matt came also. he is one of my friends too but anna had invited him. The church was having a get together in the mountains around 3, but I have bad allergies, so a mountain trip didn't seem appealing.
monday, yesterday, my mom and I made apple pies, homemade. they tasted delicious. When my mom and dad went for a ride, I made brownies. I think the bet part is licking the bowl, no? lol. But I left the brownies in to long and they don't taste as good as last time, crap..
I was in Twilight Cove today, thinking over the kerry/bush debate. I didn't know I had a big difference between so many people. I was the only republican in the debate. Everyone else was strong democrats and in general every day life I dislike democrats immensely, but I am trying to push that aside b/c I really like the cove and am trying not to think about it,. . How can people look up to someone like Clinton? I can't even stand to see him on TV. He has no morality and can not even be considered a rolemodel. People still admire him..but bull. I would rather admire crap. I just reallllllllllly don't want kerry to be elected.
i'm so confused...
