Busy, busy...

WEEKEND!

And it's only just begun!

Today after school I went to eat sushi(!!) with Chels and Brit.  Man it was good.  I haven't had real sushi in a friggin' long time!  Afterwards we went to Starbucks.  (Sushi + Starbucks = not good, by the way.)

Then I was supposed to go over to Chelsea's house to watch some movies, but then I decided it's the last track meet of the year, and a lot of my friends were going to be there.  So I went to the track meet instead.  It was ok, not GREAT.  But I did have some fun.

Tomorrow, early in the morning, Amanda (mi amor!) is coming to pick me up and we head over to Reading to Kids for Interact!!  Then it's to my aunt's house for a birthday lunch and from 1:30 to 7 is Jordan's surprise birthday party!!  I'm excitedd...and I can't wait!!

Sunday is church, but I have a LOT of homework/studying to do.  Especially for the STUPID AP EUROPEAN HISTORY EXAM on May 11.  (Two weeks!!  I'm going to die.)

So...

The future.  I would like to see it.

Today Ms. Mistry had us write letters addressed to ourselves.  (I remember in 8th grade Mrs. McKeever did this too.  I'll get that letter in a few years or so.)  We had to write about our lives.  What's important to you right now?  What are some goals?  Some accomplishments you're proud of?  Anything big happen in your life?  What are your interests?  What are your hobbies?  Who are your friends?  Who are your enemies?  Who do you like?  What do you think of the world?

She'll be mailing them back to us in 2 years.  I can't WAIT to get mine.

Bliss

Well, nothing lasts forever.  And all good things must come to an end.  Spring Break, I suppose, was relaxing, but I didn't get to do much of anything that I really wanted.

I did go on my retreat.  And that was fun, for the most part.  I gained a lot of new experiences and reflected quite a bit.  In fact, I probably reflected so much I'm losing my mind.  But I was able to make friends with some I don't talk to much, and bond closer with others.  God spoke to me through Jeremy too, words that I really needed to hear.  And I think know I'm going to make it out alright.

Our Utah trip.  Hah, well the beauty was all too fleeting.  Unfortunately, we spent most of our time driving then really admiring the scenery.  Maybe if I wasn't in such a hurry to get home and do my pointless homework, I would have enjoyed it more.  But what was caught on camera could never compare to what I saw in person.  It was beautiful and amazing, and maybe  if we spent some more time to go on walks, hike the trails, listen to national park rangers...then it would have been much more worth it.  To me, at least...

I finally got to see Amanda on Friday, when we went bowling with Steven and his middle school gang (i.e. people I didn't know)  It was fun, although I was horrible after not playing for so long.  My first time bowling in a few years, I think..  But it was fun nonetheless!

Easter was also good.  Somehow Easter is one of those days where you start thinking a lot about things.  It was a great day at church.  I enjoyed listening to Pastor Kevin, talking to Vanessa, and hanging out with the Soudahs.  After an afternoon of hardwork (but I'm still not done ) I took a break and played ping pong with my family.  I wanted to end my Spring Break that way, on a good note, not bitter, and sort of reminiscing on those "good ol' days" when I didn't have to worry about my future, colleges, and the rest of my life.  How I miss those days!

And I also miss many friends and family as well...Happy Easter to you all!

SPRING BREAK! =)

Well, I am pretty excited about Spring Break.  I have several plans!  (For once!!)

First of all, tomorrow is the last day of school!  It should be pretty chill.  After AP Euro. and Spanish, I don't have any more tests.  Chem. will be whatever.  English will be fun.  And Algebra 2 will be a sinch (cynch?).  Then tennis!!!  I'll be playing on the courts.  I hope.  I mean, as long as Jeremy lets me play.  >.<

From school, I head straight to church to meet up with Grace and Alisha and others in our youth group to leave for our youth retreat!  It's going to be my first one EVER.  Oh man, I can't wait!  We're going to Ventura Beach and coming back Sunday afternoon.  I'm very excited.  It should be an awesome time with God and friends!

Then Monday morning, my family and I wake up early to drive (10 hours!!) to Utah.  We're visiting Bryce Canyon and Zion Canyon I believe.  We're coming back Thursday night.  Then that weekend I'm doing various things with friends!  Bowling, movies, WATERSKIING.  Oh!  I can barely hold it in!!

 

HAVE A GREAT SPRING BREAK EVERYBODY!!

The Verdict

I PASSED CM!!!!!!

 

OH.EM.GEE.  I passed.  My written test was a 135 out of 150 (That's 90% for those of you who are mathematically challenged.) 

But I PASSED.  I never thought I would.  And the judge had written that I played my pieces beautifully.    Man...This week has been good.

 

Now I look forward to playing in the recital!  And it's Michael's last recital too!  I'm going to miss him...=[[  But it should be FUN and I am most certain I'm going to have a good time.  =)
