114 Days...

So this is really random, but it's been stuck in my head for the past couple of days: the topic of Graduation. 114 days left, including weekends and breaks, untill Graduation. I honestly can not wait. I just got my post card in the mail about picking our caps and gowns up in March. I'm so anxious, I want June 3rd to come really quick! Okay, ranting is over with.

Reading through Johnny Got His Gun seems waaaay more interesting than 1984. Don't get me wrong, I like the political aspect and rebelling against the government, but it was a boring read. JGHG is more in depth with emotions, and War is a topic that is hitting home for a lot of people these days. I like how the story jumps back and forth between time periods because it keeps you, as the reader, engaged in what is being said. Hopefully the book only gets better from here!

P.S: Come see the Varsity Competitive Cheer team today @ our home meet tonite @ 6! :)

OK I ADMIT I FORGOT

Ok well i was in the great counrty of Canada this past 6 days or so, so i was informed to make it up by blogging tonigh. I hope everyone enjoyed their long weekend ;) Anyways that test was a real dousy it really sucked in better terms. I wasnt really prepared for it and i had a tough time thinking of ideas. Anyways maybe she will give us some grace or something.

Snow Days

Im glad we had a couple snow days in a row.  It was nice to take a break and relax.  Hopefully we all didnt foget about 1984 and were all able to focus on are quiz tomorrow.

Last Minute Blog

I realize I've waited a little longer to blog than I should have, but I guess it's because I knew I had a lot of time to do so because of all the time off we had. :) So, I had a pretty good week being able to just relaz at home, watch movies I haven't watched in forever, and hang out with my sisters. I actually got to go sledding! :) I haven't gone sledding in just about forever (or so it seems). My little sisters and I had to shovel all the snow in front of our porch, under our deck in our back yard, and out to our dogs pen on Wednesday afternoon. Afterwards, we decided to go sledding down one of the huge snow piles my dad has been building up all winter using his plow on the tractor. It was pretty fun. We went the on Thursday as well because it was so fun! Then we (me, my sister Kaylee, my mom, and my dad) went to Hesperia's Snowcoming Saturday night after decorating for four hours on Friday and then for three more hours on Saturday before the dance. We had a good time, as always, but were also very tired afterwards. We came home around midnight and didn't go to sleep until about 1:30 this morning (I guess that's why I slept in until 11:00 instead of 9:00). Well, I guess that's just about it. I didn't really do anything too exciting this week, but I had time to just breathe for once. Now I'm getting ready for bed and waiting for morning to come and bring another week... one I am sure will be busy. :)

Snow days

The snow days were great. I got a lot done with homework and reading. I feel like I don't know what day it is anymore! lol Its not good. Well i'm kind of nervous about the essays now because I never got to conference because of the snow days. Hopefully my moms advice will be good enough.

Thanks 4 the Snow Days

I have had some time to work on my op-ed essay and have fixed things that Ms.K and I went over. I hope most of it is fixed and I hope that I receive a good grade for it. I also started reading Johnny Got His Gun and felt like I was kind of confused in the first couple pages. I won't say much because I don't know if people have started reading it but I figured we still had to even though there were snow days. I have heard that the book is really good and that is what I am expecting. I still am dreading the test on 1984 but I know its better to get it over with.

...

Having the last few days off has been nice because i've been able to get caught up on some homework. Im hoping that this week we can start Jonny Got His Gun, I dont know anything about the book but I've heard its really good. I also can't wait to get our tests for 1984 done and out of the way!!!
