So, this week is homecoming week. WOOO! I really like dressing up and having fun. But I wasn't too fond of this morning. As I was walking out the door to leave for school, my dad dropped the "so we'll start packing next week?" line on me. (It's a threat to move to Washington.) I don't really wanna move because I just moved back to Wisconsin four months ago. Washington is a nice state, but I can't imagine leaving my grandma behind.
But anyway, back to homecoming week. Today's season/holiday day. I dressed up as a hunter, partially because I'm going hunting tonight after school, and partially because opening day is like Christmas for me. Tomorrow is fairytale day. I'll have to find some wings or go get some later. We'll see what happens there...
From Friday's blog, I agree with Tom. It's really hard to do a book review and a research paper on top of homecoming week and other homework. I'm not complaining, because I've done it before and I just barely made it. I think by the end of this week, my brain will be fried to the maximum. ):
I'm really excited for Friday night. I'm going with my friend to her homecoming dance in Elk Mound, so that should be fun. I've already got my dress and heels, so I'm all set. (:
Well, that's all for now. Onto my notecards and outline. : /
I'll just start off with saying that I'm very moody today.
I don't know who it was, but I pushed some huge guy out of my way in the Freshman hallway. It was rude, but it's also rude when people stop the flow of traffic infront of you - then you try to squeeze through people - then someone races you to the open spot - and then the people around the open spot decide to cut off THAT flow of traffic in the only open spot. Like, what the he(ck)?! Let's stop standing in the middle of the hallway to flirt and talk with friends. Grow up and get out of my way.
Then during study hall, I needed a computer for multiple purposes - and I needed one with Photoshop. Just my luck, Mr. Buckholz's doors were BOTH locked, and Mrs. Zutter's class was full with little kids. So I came to the library with a bunch of annoying little middle schoolers.
I just feel like I have SO much to do all at ONCE - but not being able to do it.
I tried typing my book review and my research paper, but guess what! The Microsoft Word program expired on my laptop so I can't use it! Just joys.
I'm not enjoying Homecoming week so far due to all this homework frustration. I feel like, last week is when I planned to do my book review - until we got assigned the research paper. I mean, yeah, it would be no problem to do both things, but not have them DUE pretty much on the same days.
Now some weird middle school girl is trying to wave at me, because she thinks she's cool to know a high schooler - being my little sister's friend.
I'm sitting in Computer Apps. right now. We just had a test and seemed to be much easier then the last one. For once I think I am glad that it is a Monday because yesterday was awful! I spent literally the entire day doing homework. I must say though that I am relieved to have it done.
Homecoming this week! I didn't dress up today, partly because I forgot and partly because I didn't have anything. Once I got to school though, Erinn got me some ribbon and put it in my hair. Ha:) I'm excited to dress up tomorrow! I'm going to be a princess and wear my sophmore year prom dress. I love that dress! The rest of the week I plan on dressing up too. Friday will be fun, because the cross country team runs the football from Boyceville the whole day and then we are back just in time for the activities. Oh! I get to wear my sweet tutu too! Yay!
Well this week is homecoming, and I don't know about other people, but I am in the spirit of things! Today i'm a pumkin!! I'm excited for this year's dress up days! This weekend I did not get alot of reading time, so I didn't get the chance to finish my book. Which means that I wasn't able to finish my book report that is due Wednesday. Lets just say I have a lot of reading to do these next couple days! I finished my outline and I have my notecards. I may need some help on the order of things in my outline, I have a lot of information, but i'm not sure what order would be the best, so I might need a little assistance on that! Also i'm a little worried about haveing the rough draft due Wednesday too. I am going to work on it, but I am going to have a lot of questions for you once I start it, and i'm afraid i'm not going to ba able to get them all in before the rough draft is due. I dont want to have a "good first try" on this paper!! I know i'm not that good of a writer, i'm just not creative in that sense, but I really want to learn to write a better paper so it wouldn't be completely embarrassing to give to a college professor! I'm not gifted like my sister, so I do need more help!! Other than those things, this week should be fun!
I want to go to the moon. This morning I was walking to school and the moon was out. It looks so cool up there. I cannot imagine what it would be like. Maybe someday we all will get the chance to go there. Just think about it, we can leave our planet, how crazy is that. It would also be so cool to go to other galaxies and see all the other life out there. With unlimited space there has to be some other lifeforms out and about. Maybe someday we will be visited by super awsome aliens who have the power to read minds and they will teach us all how to do it to. Do you think you could make a slinky go forever, if you put it on an escalator? It sounds possible, as long as you have the perfect conditions. This research paper is really interesting. I'm finding out all sorts of things about Knights that I never knew before. Yep, lots of stuff going on these days, lots of work.
Homecoming has come!! It's always fun to see how people dress up for the days.
I too have to agree with Tom and Caitlin. Having to do papers during homecoming week is not a very good idea. Plus I can't decide what topic to do for the research paper. The good thing though is that I have research on both of my topics that can be put onto note cards asap.
Time to get back to my paper and review. There is not enough time in the week. Not that I want the week to be longer but the time after school seems to go by so fast.
Well its monday again, and just like last week, I'm home. Yeah, so I've got pink eye and it pretty much sucks. But oh well... I'm not supposed to wear my contacts for a week though. I'm not really liking that. It doesn't help that I got these glasses in seventh grade and aren't supper amazing. But we'll what happens.
All these papers are going to get stressful this week though. Being gone today isn't going to help at all either. At least I have two study halls to work on all of it though.
This homecoming week should be fun. It is always fun to watch and see how everybody dresses up for all the days. It does seem like we always have the same dress up days. But it should be a fun week and hopefully not too stressful.
I was a bunny today. Three people told me I looked like a sheep. One person told me they thought I was a cow. What?
I don't really have a TON of homework because I did all my book reports ahead of time. I am a non-procrastinator. I have some pre-calc and Modern American History to do. I'm also going to write out my research paper. It's extraordinarily interesting. Then I must pick a picture and quote for the yearbook.
There are stitches in my heart they are even, they are neat where one thread ends and one begins is impossible to see If my heart were to be broken, it would pull the stitches wide and everything would become visible, impossible to hide
There are stitches in my eyes that only let me see the things that I acknowledge and the things I hope to be But if the strings were pulled apart and reality was plain I would be crushed beneath the weight of the world and its pain
There are stitches in my ears so that I can just perceive the things that I find comfortable and easy to believe But if I could hear all that the stitches have quieted and drowned I would find pain and gladness and beauty with the sound
There are stitches in my hands that are tied behind my back so its easy not to look for or to find the things I lack and if I could summon my will and tear my hands in two I would be scared to use them, I would not know what to do
There are stitches in my mind, separating all I know But they are pulled so tight I find it is impossible to grow was I born wrapped in these stitches? Did I do this on my own? I must suffer my restrictions, I must suffer them alone
Stitches cannot hold forever, someday they must break and maybe when I'm free of them, I'll realize my mistake I thought my stitches set my boundaries, and would help me to survive but I need to grow and change and learn to truly be alive
Well, it seems like everyone is talking about homecoming. It is rather exciting, except I won't get to participate in any of the dress up days. :( That's okay though. I am excited for the game on Friday and the pep rally! We get to perform our ridiculously funny bag routine! But I'm also not looking forward to Friday because I have to give a speech :\
I worked all weekend; therefore I had no time to get any of my homework done. So I have a load of homework to do and most of it is writing, which I suck at. Great. Work went good though! It was tiring, but good. They had a pretty busy weekend for the opening one.
I don't really know what else to write so I am going to go make a hair cut appointment and then do some writing and then I’ll perhaps watch the game.
Sooo...Hello everyone and yes, happy Monday I suppose :) Today was pretty exciting when I realized that once I finished the chem quiz...no more chem for the week! :) Homecoming is fun! Hopefully I can mustard up an outfit for tomorrow. I I'm excited to have finished a song! Though really it will never done... I'm not going to write down the lyrics because songs are close to heart and sound super lame if you just read the lyrics haha so you can just imagine and pretend that I am singing a new song that I wrote. :)
GAAAH! I hate my computer. I had just finished typing a lovely blog about dress up days, and my weekend, and what not, when KA-BLAM. It just shut down on me. Like it doesn't care whether or not it's wasting my precious time...
Anyhow, after this I am going to try and figure out my costume for fairytale day. Lately I have had an urge to visit a museum. One of the ones where they dim the lights down real low, and then a rhythmic voice appears form the darkness, and describes the history of the object on display. Those are my favorite. I usually don't care what they are explaining about (not that it isn't interesting!), I just like the setting. Mondays aren't nearly as unbearable as they used to be. Tonight I am having roasted potatoes and other vegetable as well as soy-based buffalo wings(BELIEVE IT OR NOT THEY ARE DELICIOUS!) I think I should stop typing now and post this comment before my computer shuts down again.
Today seemed to go by really fast for a Monday. Not that I’m complaining! =)
At the moment I’m working on my conclusion paragraph for my rough draft. I have been trying to finish that throughout the entire day as I was in the library five times today. Only a sentence or two got written up, but I’m determined to finish it so I won’t have to freak out about getting it done for Wednesday. Overall, I’m pleased with how my paper turned out. I’m not 100% satisfied with my last paragraph, which might be why it is taking me forever to finish. Oh well. It is a rough draft and I can always change it up for the final paper.
In addition to finishing my draft, I’m also getting to work on my book review. Over the past week I have been trying to figure out what all I should write about my book. It wasn’t until tonight I whipped up an outline, which I should have done ages ago. I was completely lost on what all I had to write about and how to organize it. Now that I have an outline in front of me, I’m pretty sure on what I have to do now.
I just wish we still had a few more days to write up our reviews. It just seems like we have a lot on our plate with having to have our rough drafts and book reviews ready by Wednesday. Then again, I kind of like how both are due on the same day. I definitely feel the pressure, and it makes me want to finish them both as soon as I can instead of procrastinating.
I wish all of my papers would write themselves. I was trying to not procrastinate this year, but I've started to. I think senioritis has already hit me.
I'm also really excited to finally perform the bag dance for homecoming. It seems like we've been practicing it forever, and I'm ready to be done with it.
This week has completely flown by! One day it was Monday and I was dreading practice and now it is Thursday! I love how fast this year has gone already. But I have been really slacking in all my classes. Its hard to apply myself to every class and still have enough energy to go to football. I'm really looking forward to this year to be over. I know I am going to miss all of the people but I'm going to be glad to not have homework. Well not for the summer at least.
I'm excited for the game tomorrow! I'm also ready for football to be over and for basketball to start.
This week came and it went! I was so busy I can barely remember all the things I had to do. Some of it was a lot of fun, but some of it was very stressful. This weekend went by really fast too, but I get got to do all the things I wanted to do so I am not complaining. I wish basketball was here because it always seems to make me happier. I do not know how, but it also makes things a lot less stressful for me.
So, this week is homecoming week. WOOO! I really like dressing up and having fun. But I wasn't too fond of this morning. As I was walking out the door to leave for school, my dad dropped the "so we'll start packing next week?" line on me. (It's a threat to move to Washington.)
