Random...

I thought that last weeks controversial issue was very good. They did a great job with creating discussion and they also all dressed very nicely. :) This weekend I went to Grace Youth Camp with a bunch of people and we all had a great time. I was really tired when I got home on sunday though. My portfolio is very close to being done and I cant wait to see what people think of it. I worked on it for about 5 hours yesterday. Im really excited to have the day off tomorrow so I can finish my portfolio and get started on some other stuff. I hope everyone had a good weekend!

Going to Kentucky Soon!

So next week Im taking my exams early and taking my first road trip by myself down to kentucky. It's kind of nerve racking, but Im really excited and I can't wait to go. I just have to get all my stuff done early so Im ready! Tis going to be fun.

Whatever....

So I just read Ross's blog! It was a nice message, but oh well. I'm bloging this week early that way I dont forget!!! I'll also comment ALOT to make up for last week and get extra credit. Well right now I really want a nap and I'm so glad we dont have school tommorrow! Dont forget everyone, portfolios are due on WED!!!!

Thanks for coming out and reading my blog

Well I went to grace youth camp this weekend and it was really fun. I went indoor rock climbing, tubing and other stuff. I also went to this neon lights party, it was pretty sweet, glow sticks and black lights everywhere!!! but i got all my homework done before the weekend like a good responsible young male. And lastly, I really hope that you like this post that I wrote..... because it took 6HOURS TO WRITE IT!!!

True Story

I'm a failure.....

Well, at about 11:30, I saw that Jake and Luke had yet to post a blog.  So I went to call them, but then realized I didn't have their number.  So, I decided to call someone who knew it.  Now I know that they went to school with Taylor, so I went to call her using a phone book, but I guess it was out dated.  It said Elm street New Era, but I got a grumpy old lady saying "We don't do rentals."  Then I thought "Hey, Casey has Taylor's number!  And I have Casey's!"  So I called and she was asleep...  There was too many smiths in the phone book, and I even tried facebook, but to many smiths!!  Now it's just past, midnight, and my mission is a failure...

Freaking Out A Little Bit At A Time.

The rough draft is due tomorrow. I have been planning all weekend long (as well as finishing my portfolio) and my rough draft is still skeletal. I'm not sure what to do. I don't think I need help with writing it, but I need a better way to get my ideas down. I know what I want to say and I know the words I want to use, but transitioning and making my rough draft fluid is becoming an extreme challenge.

On a positive note, my portfolio is SO CLOSE to being finished! I have one quick question:

I was reading the professionalism page in the packet and it says to use a variety of fonts. However, I do not want a variety of fonts as I feel it will make my portfolio seem indecisive and unprofessional. I was wondering if I would get marked down at all for not using multiple fonts and sticking with one or two.

Time

I felt like the free write on Time was just me complaining about how much time I do not have. I am very stressed out about my senior portfolio and I'm hoping that I have enough time to make it look very good. I don't think that it will look as good as a scrap book but I'm going to try. I also was very stressed out about our synthesis essay and at first was very confused. I think I was able to get it down and hopefully it was what Mrs. K was looking for. Also, I wanted to say that Noble, Casey, Taylor, and Amy did a great job on Friday presenting on capital punishment. Some of the facts really surprised me and it felt like I actually learned quite a lot from the presentation.
