Wow. Nothing is happening...

So... we've just settled into the routine of the new semester.
BTW: Am I the only one who notices how after being in a new semester or school year for a few days, everyone relaxes, and the whole school just seems to settle with a contented sigh?

Anyway, that point just passed, and I think too much in my life has settled. Not into a rut... per se, but I go to school, where I do pretty much the same thing everyday: I have the same classes, that for the most part are the same thing everyday, and I talk to the same people, about the same things, and I drive home, grab something to eat, and then I watch some TV while I do my homework. Then I pretty much get on the computer and Myspace and waste time until it's time to go to bed.

I need some excitement!!


Oh, and I wonder if Myspace is going to be in the dictionary soon, like as a verb.

I hope so... that would be neato.

Hahaha.

I'm boreddddddd

My parents went out on a date-thing. I don't know, it's weird.

And Geoff is out with STEPHANIE. Equally as weird.

So I am home alone. I would have gone over to Emma's, but she has a basketball game tonight.

Heavy sigh, heavy sigh.

Well, Sara Beth's birthday party is tomorrow, so that will be fun. I just have to ignore the cloud of un-finished English homework hanging over my head.

Especially because we have an extra day to do it (Thanks MLK!)


Iiiiiiiiiiii'mmmmm laaaaammmmmeeeee.

New Semester!

Ok, so as anybody who has read my last blog knows, I was super excited for the new semester.

I was totally right. This semester is gonna rock!

1st block: Espanol with Sra. Pestana (Wallace?) no. Pestana. She seems really nice, and the class doesn't look like it will be very hard. Casey Phillips is my unofficial, but still pretty official partner in that class. Whenever we have to team up to speak Spanish, she's my partner. Oh, and we all have to pick Spanish names and there is no Spanish form of Heather (unless I wanted to make my name Heatherita, which I don't think counts.), I picked Guadalupe. Because it's fun to say. But only if you over-accent the Lu part. Like GuadaLOOpe!

2nd block: Physical Science with Mrs. Colwell. I'm going to start calling this class PhySci, just to see if it will catch on. I don't think it will. Anyway, we have 3 workbooks in her class. There is an EOCT prep workbook, a Science Notebook that goes along with our textbook, and one other workbook that we have to keep in our binders. I had to buy a 3-inch binder for this class. She seems like she is going to be extremely METICULOUS about how things will be done. She gave us a 4-page-long syllabus. wow. I have Hannah and Ashley Swanson, and Kacie, and JeffKidd in this class, so it should be pretty fun, I guess.

3rd block: Honors English!!! I was looking forward to this class more than any other. I love English, and this class never seems long enough. Whenever we get into a really interesting discussion, the bell rings. I kind of wish we didn't have lunch during this block, because it, like, interrupts whatever we are doing/talking about. I think I kind of had a rocky start, but everything is going to be fine. I need to get stuff together for my Create-a-Text assignment. I already have somewhat of an idea of what I want to do, but I need MORE! I wish I could just decide what I want as my background, and start building from there. I want to incorporate as many of the senses as I can, but I don't know HOW. I have a few pictures that I really want to include, and a couple ideas of STUFF, and when I went shopping with Stephanie, we got some stuff in the scrapbooking section of WalMart to use. I really think I will like this class. There is a great sense of community. Everyone in there is kind of in the same groups (except Vincent, I fell bad for him, but I guess he has Jacob from soccer at least), and its a small class. Everybody in there gets along, and is pretty much friends.

4th block: Band. Easy. Exactly what I was expecting. Band is just band. Execpt now we are in the same class as percussion, which makes everything that much more interesting. The drumline is sooo friggin cool! I love them.

Umm I guess that's it.
Those are all my classes, and this semester is going to be waay more challenging than the last. I NEVER did homework last semester. I mean, not ONCE. I'm going to have homework EVERY night now.

Plus, I can now GO places. I have my license, and a car, and my daddy isn't being as super-strict as he was before. He let me drive to Walmart with Stephanie, and to the basketball game last night, even though he doesn't like me driving in the dark or the rain. I'm glad he's finally loosening his iron death-grip on me. I'm not going to do anything stupid, and I've never given him a reason not to trust me. I don't drink or do drugs, and I'm waiting till marriage to have sex, so he doesn't have to worry about ME doing anything dumb. If he is worried about somebody ELSE doing something dumb (i.e. rape me. like that's going to happen), he should just buy me some Pepper Spray. Which I told him to do.

So, yup. Things are looking up.

So the Rain Keeps Falling

And falling
and falling
and falling
and falling
and falling.

It has been raining for practically 2 months straight.

I miss the sun. All this rain makes everything gray and bleak ad dreary and grim.
This weather just kind of sucks all the life out of me, like a dementor (whoa! Harry Potter allusion. Bet you didn't see that coming!! haha).

But seriously, I don't want to DO anything like this. This weather is why I'm sitting around blogging all the time. I don't want to go out and be a sad gray part of the sad gray world out there right now.

WHEN WILL IT BE SPRING!!??

I love Spring. It is my second favorite season. Everything comes back to life and is warm and sunshine-y and bright.

Ugh. It's only January 6th. The first day of spring is not until March 20th.
(I just looked it up. heehee.)

Even though I HATE being cold, I would at least like to see SOME winter weather.

If I have to endure 3 months of winter, I'd at least like to get a little snow out of it.

Anyway, Im going to stop complaining now.
New semester starts veryvery soon!

I can't wait! It's time for some new stimulation.

I want school to start... NOW!!

I can't wait for the new semester.
I like my clases now (except Drivers Ed, but I don't really count that as a class), but I am ready for a change.

Plus, I miss all of my friends.
1 day after Christmas, my parents friends from Florida came up to visit, bringing their 15 year old daughter, and her boyfriend.
I've known them since I was born, and Mandy (their daughter) and I get along ok, but she's got nothing on my friends.
My friends just bring the best out of me. I'm always more fun and outgoing when I'm with my friends.

I think I'm having, like, withdrawls or something, because I keep flying off the handle at people for no reason, and I'm really cranky, and I'm throwing up (hee, not really).

Mandy and her boyfriend just fight all the time. They just had their 8-month anniversary, and if their entire relationship was like this, I can't believe they are still together.
He is funny and stuff, but he is really rude.
I wouldn't stay with a guy who treated me like he treats her.

I just want them to shut up.

They have been here for a week, and they both smoke, and I'm sick of them fighting with each other and all their secondhand smoke.

They are leaving tomorrow, and I can't freaking wait.
They were entertaining for like 2 days, but they need to leave.

I know that makes me sound rude, but all they do is fight with each other. They are no fun.
They just piss me off.
