Looking Ahead

Have you ever had a tickle in your throat and you just absolutely cannot get rid of it no matter how much you cough? Needless to say that's what's up with me right now. What a bother.
So, 24 days left of school. It's going quick.
And next week we have ISTEP... fun. I do like the lack of class and homework that comes with it though. Plus, this coming week is supposed to be all multiple choice testing and stuff. Easy and mind numbing. Sounds good to me.

Don't Wake Me Up

I absolutely adore days like this. It's sunny, cool but not freezing, and it rains a little every so often. Everything just seems so bright and fresh. Tomorrow we have an away meet for the rest of the team that didn't go to the meet for varsity today. Fun!
I have homework to get to now. Math test tomorrow. Sigh* I need a nap.
This morning around 5:15(I normally get up around 7) the back door blew open and set off the alarm. I was pretty disoriented and in a half awake half asleep sort of state. I'm not exactly sure why, but for some reason I was wondering how we would know what time to go to school since we got up at the wrong time. Anyway, I did kinda get back to sleep. But I am now tired, missing that hour of sleep I lost. I can't wait till the summer. I love weekends and their leisure so much, but they pass far too quickly.

And Here We Are Again

These are the major topics in my mind as of late:
Home again. School. Friends. National Junior Honor Society. Track. Milk. Tired. Lather, Rinse, Repeat.
Soon, I hope to empty that mix and replace it with:
Summer. Home. Art lessons. Vocal lessons. Swim. Run. Walk. Freedom. Friends. Poetry. Rollerblading. Winston. Sewing. Etc.

Seven more weeks of school now, I can do this. Hopefully. I can hardly believe it's the 4rth quarter already. I mean, I guess I'm getting ahead of myself here, we're not really that close yet, but even the thought of summer is extremely comforting. It's only, what 30 or so actual days of school? I'm fairly excited because I'm planning on taking art lessons and vocal lessons this summer! :) Just once a week, it'll be nice to add a little commitment to my summer.

On another note, I have lots of math homework and I need to practice my band. I'm also illustrating a children's book for Spencer that he has to do for English. Yep, spring break is definitely over.

At Least It Didn't Vaporize

Oww. Having spent the past two days at the beach for very long periods of time I somehow have a triangle of red red sunburn on one shoulder, a stripe of it on the other, and some not-too-bad sunburn all around the chest. Ouchee. I've looked up some sunburn remedies and after much investigating I've decided to dab tea on the burn as suggested by numerous sites. So far it has helped a little. I hope everyone is enjoying their vacations as I am! ;) Florida is nice, is it raining much in Indy? I'm very full of crackers and peanut butter, and chips with guacamole. And now I'm off to reaply my tea.

Splendiferous

Yaaaaay! Yay Yay Yay! Leaving in an hour for the airport! Yay! Soon I'll be in Florida! Wooh! But not only that, I've accomplished something extremely important to me today, be proud! Also, I love thunderstorms, it rained pretty hard last night and it was fabulous! Anyway, I have to go get my shoes packed and get ready to go. I hope you all have a great Spring Break!

Must Get Cookies

Yesss, so very close we are! Only tomorrow left, then SPRING BREAK! And track is optional so I'm probably not going to go, I'm lazy. On Monday we did the mock meet running. I ran the 100, 200, and hurdles. I feel like I probably could have done a bit better on each of them, but it has me looking forward to the rest of the season. We got our uniforms yesterday, and I got a nice newish red one. Joy! I didn't enjoy having to wear the old faded uniforms last year. Today we did field events and obviously I tried the discus. It went okay, but I have a lot to work on. I'm not all that good at it(or at least not as good as a lot of other people who did discus) but Mr. Carter(spanish teacher Mr. C obviously) really seems to think I can improve. I think I can do better too, I guess, but it seemed like my throws were just getting worse today. Anyway, on another note, I love cream cheese on bagels, and storebought cookies with the thin hardish icing on them, like the ones from Kroger. I also love chocolate milk, and cheese with crackers. Sorry, I've been eating a lot lately, and I'm craving food right now. And I can't get my mind off spring break! So close! I just absolutely cannot wait! Yay!
