Magic Money?

close reading? i didn't finish it =] xD and i told norris like straight up what happened and she didn't seem to really mind much other than to give the impression i should work harder to finish next time, which i will =]
this week has been so packed with work. and i think i should've definitely been able to finish it.
the study group/club discussion today i think went quite well =] it had a good mix of random talking and actually getting work done.
there's not too much on my mind at the moment, aside from the fact that the alarm i like never use just went off. i believe i mentioned how my radio was on last night and i didn't hear my phone alarm...well i didn't mention that when i did hear the alarm i thought it was my radio and i was half asleep going wtf why won't it turn off! and i was just hitting random buttons and then i realize its my fone and i'm like o.o -.- and go back to sleep.
also, kinda random, when i got home...i went to the bathroom and i like was fixing my hair...and then i heard like something crinkly like fall out of my hair...like i think it was in my hair o.o and then i keep shaking my hair cuz idk what it was and i was like wtf...and i walk out of the bathroom and walk back in a few mins later...realizing it was paper that fell out of my hair? idk. lol but i now have 2 more dollars. xD
Phil's bday party is tomorrow! and luckily, even though borders sent they wouldn't have the things in til saturday afternoon/sunday morning, they called and said they got them today =] so i went to go pick them up and then went to sonny's...my dad and i both orders the all u can eat sliced pork, which is amazing =] and combined we had 6 plates of pork lol. =D
and as for phil's gift...the plan is working out as planned...lol. well sort of as planned. but its all good either way =]

ooo and to veer in another direction, i feel like with the way things are going now, i'm becoming more independent? like...today for the library...my parents were like just call if u need a ride home or anything...they didn't ask for a specific time or like exactly what i was doing...even though when i got home i updated them with info lol.. =] part of it too was like...i didn't have to wait for them to pick me up? i could just get a ride from a friend. (in this case, kyle =]) and idk i was just like =D and i had a pretty good convo with kyle too =] anyways....aside from that...im really hoping that my parents will decide to let me get my license...and perhaps a car w/insurance...like...ill help too =] because i think its getting a little rough on always asking kyle for a ride or like bugging them for a ride when they're on a tight work schedule...well sorta tight...lol. because now, all of a sudden, im extremely busy...aside from having crap loads of ib work, sunday i go out to breakfast at 7 30, then volunteer from 12-4, then monday is the potential club day, weds is tsa, thurs are potential volunteer days...only when i don't have much hw..hah., friday is study group. so yea... lol. busy busy.
oooo and speaking of the club. im really loving the name Nexus right now. i can already see the logo and what not lol. but listen to this. =]
the definition for nexus is a casual link; a connected group or series; center/focus...anddd we're a casual. =], connected, and focused! group =] lol. but yea..also because it means connected but its not as blunt as saying connection club...and it just sounds cool xP
mmk its late. and time for bed. i know i said i didn't have much to write. i lied.
and here's a little more, i got a 90 on the english quote quiz, the history quiz was really easy i def aced that, math quiz was easy too and i def aced that. spanish was really gahhh but i think i passed...with hopefully a high c being the minimal?, and currently, chemistry is extremely gay and stupid. i want geiger as the teacher! and bio assessment statements ftw!....NOT! im doing it all this weekend...lol i didn't realize it was due when we get back to school =\

Going through the motions.

So all I did for hw today was math...since I think thats the only thing thats actually due tomorrow. I actually fell asleep on my math hw xD the voices/thoughts were being loud in my head...and then I actually ate dinner tonight, unlike last night...it was yummy =] and then i started watching tv...so yea...i know i have tsa tomorrow and i should be doing as much hw as i can..but i just can't stand the work atm...im just in an off mood i suppose...gahh i need someone to like talk to me or be here til i fall asleep or something just be there for me and comfort meeeee because phil no longer has his cell -.- he got into some argument with his grandpa and like idk w/e im just being weird...gahh i don't like this

The....'second' day of school!

So I suppose this day wasn't like I said it would be...it doesn't completely feel like the first day of school..but the routine hasn't been established yet.
It was good to hear that Norris extended the date for close reading =] So now i won't need to worry about my first all nighter of the year. haha. Idk for some reason, I just can't seem to concentrate on the reading. Like I like the book and I don't have a problem looking for literary device. so yea idk.
Note taking for history was good so far...I'm definitely thinking of bringing my laptop tomorrow so that I can type notes. That way I don't have to worry about a blah day of handwriting xP.
In Harriman's i finished up my website, she gave me the file so that i can manage some district site (idk what its about yet...I will soon...)
Math was ehhh its okay. i need to get back into math mode =]
Chem was kinda stupid, what is an apron and when do u use it o.o lol.
Bio was actually pretty okay. nate was funny xP
The writing in spanish was kind of annoying (alex u lieddd we did work on the packet!) we wrote it in our composition books and then we did it on notecards.
im hoping that i'll stop writing in this manner, but as for now i suppose its okay. but once i get into the swing of things my blog will be better i promise =]

Oh, and we're a Cult! lol. The Cult of Clubs! o.o and Proposal: This Friday, we have our first 'study group' at the fort pierce library straight afterschool until idk when. but the library is open til 6. let's at least attempt to get it done this friday...if not, then next =]


Saturday, Phil came over...and he brought me a mango blast =] so of course I was quite happy from the getgo =P we watched Shawshank redemption..which was pretty good =]
Yesterday, consisted of waking up early, breakfast, walmart, volunteering, borders.
--
And the day of cramps followed by a day of headaches was absolutely uncalled for! luckily no pain today =] i guess my body figured school and homework would be pain enough xD.
off to do hw! =]

ABDC Finale!

not much has happened the past few days...other than Fay and having an argument with phil..i also think its hilarious that we have the first day of school and then we're off for a week and when we get back to school monday its going to feel like the first day of school all over again.
as for close reading...i have 135 more to go =/ i did a pretty good amount today. but i definitely need to do a lot more within the next few days.
so for this school year, i definitely hope i don't procrastinate too much. though a lil bit is inevitable =P
as for ABDC; the winners are....Super Cr3w! =/
Jabbawockeez are still the best.

Flooding Fay.

So yea...lots and lots of rain. pics to be posted at a later time. My street is completely flooded and basically all of the surrounding area is too. The canal is wayy high like up my backyard and almost touching my neighbor's fence. At least I gots another day to do Close Reading. lol. 188 more to go! I finished all of my other work though. I did the parts of the spanish packet that we were supposed to do but I think im going to do more. and I did half of the history...i'm just going to wait for the notes for the rest of that. anyways...some of the funny things that happened so far =]
1. some kid mooned the news12 skycam and that was on mariposa i think near mi church.
2. 2 kids were in a lil boat in the canal and they flipped over. i was rofl.
3. the city is having a 'shuttle bus' for my neighborhood. and its really 4x4s and dump trucks and mi daddi rode it home. (i got a pic xP) [and apparently he was filmed getting in the truck..the camera dude was the husband of someone he knew. lol.]
4. some guy on tv was waveboarding on the back of a truck and it was his mom driving
thats all i can remember. off for more close reading i suppose. bleh.
lemme know how u're doing in ur area =]

oh and wth is up with the path of this storm. it came from the south east towards the west/gulf...then it headed towards the east..and is going to the ocean...and then its going to come back west? wth. it just wants to make sure everyone gets a share of rain and tornadoes in florida eh?

First Day of School.

today definitely did not feel like a first day...
so yesterday worked out exactly as i planned...time wise anyways. and i read the scarlet letter til i really could read no more...i fell asleep on the book xD and i didn't wake up early to read it just because i was having a good dream and the sleep was like ♥ and i was early for the bus! but the bus sucked because it was FULL. there is noone sitting by themselves. its crazy =\
1st hour - english; took a quiz (which i think i did pretty good on, considering i didn't finish the book.) and we have 200 entries due tuesday... =/; sat in front of kyle =P
2nd hour - history; pretty okay actually.; don't really know anyone...like i know people..but not like heyyy ima go sit with u.. xD
3rd hour - harriman; same old making a website; definitely a good break in my day.; sat next to tamir and eilene
4th hour - math; arthur was quite funny. blaming it all the heat. pshh. what an american. lol.; tyler was in the room but sat 2 rows to the left and we didn't get a chance to talk or anything =[
5th hour - chem; lacey is sooo boring and its like the only class i really know people in; yay for the cinco de amigos! =D (no im not forgetting tyler. he'll be with us soon ^^)
6th hour - biology; boring also, but at least there was no work; surround me are sara, tim, tamir, and alex...my freshmen seat was occupied...and im actually quite glad to be in the back =P
lunch - i saw with 'julia' alex and eilene. only eating chicken nuggets and corn was =/ just cuz im used to eating more lol. but right now im eating some ox tail soup =P
(sry alex, idk where the pig feet and pig ears went lmao.)
7th hour - spanish; pretty okay. i wish it wasns't my 7th hour though..just cuz i'd rather not end my dad with spanish...nor do i like to start my day with english; i don't really know many in this class either but rachael is my partner.
im actually quite surprised i actually remembered my schedule today without constantly looking at the 'goldenrod sheet' lol. and the order of my classes isn't too too bad either...like not a lot of back and froth walking =]

2 more days!

woah, I haven't posted in 3 days; I remember thinking to myself on Wednesday that there wasn't really a point in posting anything because it was overall, not a post worthy day...but now that 3 days have passed, i'm sure i can figure out something =D

lets see, on Wednesday i volunteered at the children's museum and went to benihana's for lunch...again. then.. i came home and just had a really bleh day that consisted of nothing to watch on tv and lots of sleep. -- ("--"=hidden; just for future reference, that way you know whether or not you're missing out on something xP) Thursday, consisted of waking up at 10 and phil picking me at 12ish to go to the mall. we were there til my dad came to pick us up at around 5ish and i drove home and ordered papa john's and we tried the chicken bacon ranch pizza (which was amazing btw) anyways, at the mall, we went to watch the Mummy, which i had already seen and then phil got a couple shirts from hot topic --

and of course, friday was filled with open houses and school supply shopping! -- okay, now what kindergarten kid doesn't get recess and nap time everyday?! apparently...the kids at savanna ridge =\ one of the parent's asked what they should bring for nap time and the teacher goes, oh, we don't have nap time here. nope. no naps. and we're all like o.O and another parent goes...only in the good ol' days. xD and they don't get recess everyday either...no running around a playground =[...if they have recess...its pe....or a "structured activity" like "duck duck goose" wth. i guess its sorta good that the teacher doesn't spoil the kids and what not..but still! i bet they don't even have snack time. =\ also, apparently after the first week of school or something the kids start learning to read? w/e kindergarten is supposed to be the funnn times!

anyways, on to more relevant things...wth is up with the 10 inches worth of binders and the fricken 80 dividers?! i didn't get an actual backpack this year but those won't even fit in a normal backpack! well... i fit everything in my bag except for the science binders. bleh. and i should also mention that im only on chapter 11 in the scarlet letter....which is bleh. because i can't really read a lot of it at one time...i start to skim and not really grasp what im reading...i can only read a chapter or two at a time =\. i did get the audio version from jen though ^^ and last but not least, what do you guys have 1st and 6th hour o.O? so that we can figure out where to meet and what lunches we have =]
--

as for today, i wanted to read like A LOT of the Scarlet Letter...and i ended up only reading a couple of pages. which means i have more than half the book to read tomorrow. -.- i won't even go into how time flew by today. i did go to sushi yama for dinner though =] - but yea tomorrow will be full of activities. i doubt i'll even go online..well i'll try not to...and no post either. gotta wake up at 7 30 and pick up my sis by 8 30 then breakfast with my cousins at 9 and then shower and go to the children's museum til 4 and then go to my cousin's house for her bday and i'll prolly be there til like 8...so idk how the heck im going to get this reading done. dang it. i hate dislike this. this is what i was trying to avoid. but unfortunately time flew...-.- again. as always. my stupid excuse. and i didn't start the book when i wanted to and at the pace i wanted to....grr. no commentary..please!! *begs*

a hidden message.

yesterday, i didn't get the chance to post a post because i was extremely tired...and i guess bored too. i volunteered again from 9-1 at the children's museum and then we went to benihanas for lunch =] after, i chilled and watched some tv...but there was nothing good on so i went to sleep at 7. *yay* for 15 hours of sleep =P
anyways today, as i was looking at a post draft...i for some reason thought of v's hidden messages and i figured out how to view them....i feel stupid for not figuring it out sooner. so i think i shall try to make my own.
--
so today was filled with pretty much nothingness. currently watching american mall lol. and ill continue reading at least a few chapters of the scarlet letter before i go to sleep tonight.
tomorrow, is another day of volunteering and lunch at benihanas =P

7 hours!

so this morning, i woke up at around 7 30ish and went to pick up jenny from her friend's house.. and then i picked up my cousins and we went out for breakfast at a little cafe called Americana. its kind of hidden and not bad =] i had a tomato and mushroom omelet ^^ then i watched the beginning of the US vs. China Men's bball game and i was off again around 11 30. i drove to the children's museum to start my first day of volunteering =P and i now have 7 volunteer hours total. xP the children's museum is pretty cool. kinda small right now...they only opened phase one of the place but its still cool. [phase 2 is a pirate area!! =P] i worked the register for the day and i helped clean up a little bit. it was nice/fun to see something like this in psl....well jensen...well near me ish. lol. its definitely something different from everything else around here. and im thinking, maybe senior year (since i think i'll have plenty of hours by then) that i'll actually work there part-time, in charge of the admission or merchandise store or something lol. idk. we'll see. anyways, right after i finished we went down to west palm beach to have dinner with my "aunt" lol. (u know how that is v...i think....i'd hope) =P and then i just got home a little while ago...and im actually extremely tired, and was about to fall to sleep when i found the courage to get up and post a post on my blog. and now that i've done that. it's time for me to sleep!

2 dozen roses.

so today, i read up to chapter 6 in the scarlet letter. (not bad eh? xP) and then phil came and brought me roses!! =D so i was like O.O ^^ lol. but we just chilled today, watching tv and whats not. and then we went out to sushi yama for dindin =] aside from that, i didn't do much. oo i baked an apple pie for my daddy. it was one of those frozen already made one xP and its in the oven right now and he didn't eat any...i wonder why he told me to bake it in the first place? anyways...laptop battery is dying and i gotta wake up at 7 30 tomorrow morning to pick up my sister by 8 30 and then go out for breakfest...and then volunteering at the children museum =]

adapter. bus stop. olympics.

So I go to use the laptop this morning and I find out I only have half of my battery life left...and I'm like o.o because I had it plugged in all last night. So I went to check the adapter and the little blue light won't turn on. =[ So now I'm waiting for a reply from ASUS.
Good news is that my bus stop is now at 6am instead of 5 35. *woot!* and....the Olympic's Opening Ceremony is about to start =D It will be amazing! I think this is the first time I've actually gotten excited about the olympics lol. I think it's because it's in China. xP So I'll be watching in Chinese and English. haha.
Aside from all of that, I didn't do much today aside from reading the Scarlet Letter. I'm in chapter 3, I think. ooo and I found those papers that Hussan gave us about it lol. It's not much but it's something...
bleh. today was boring and the show is going to start in 10mins. so im going to stop rambling and go get me some food and watch.

eww. shots.

This morning I drove JJ to the doctors and he ended up getting a physical, FOUR shots, and blood work. I guess he didn't feel the needle when he got the blood work but he definitely felt the shots. I wasn't in the room when he got the shots though...I didn't want to see. He got the shots in his thigh areaish...2 on each leg and he was like 'why did you do that?!!' Anyways...we went to walmart and he was like I want to get 2 things! and he ended up getting more xD. We got him a set of cars, Need for Speed set of 3 games, and a cd case so he was content after that. I felt so bad for him =\ but at least he's all set for school now. haha none of us had gone to the doctors in like 4 years.
I also sent some emails to some volunteer places that Martin Volunteers suggested and I'm about to start reading the Scarlet Letter. bleh. Just until ABDC comes on xP. Also, the ordering of my classes, I think, is horrible.
I have:
Eng III - IB : Norris
American History - IB : Gray
Interactive Design : Harriman [*yay*]
Pre-Calculus : Arthur
Chemistry II - IB : Lacey [what happened to geiger o.o]
Biology II - IB : Hosie
Spanish III - IB : Norcia

oh and I wonder if you can spot something different with this blog. =P

the start of a new [school] year

So I mentioned that I would eventually start a new blog before the school year started and I decided that I would start the blog as soon as I made a few changes/started some things that would hopefully make me a better me. So I made a few changes and started a few things...and here I am =] To start, I got my laptop last night! I'm still getting used to the keyboard a little bit but aside from that it's amazing and very portable =P Also yesterday, I went to Martin Volunteers and the Children's Museum to submit volunteer applications so that I can start contributing hours for CAS. I'm currently taking a break from cleaning my room, but it's almost done. So I think I'm off to a pretty good start and hopefully everything will work out in the end. (everything being stuff that I understand in my head but can't seem to explain to anyone else)

School starts in two weeks and I still haven't started to read the Scarlet Letter. oh wells. That's the next thing I plan to do, aside from getting more active xP. As for CAS hours, let me know if there's anything we can do as a group. =] V and I* are already planning something but that's for us to discuss at a later time. ;]

Hope you like everything so far ^^

*and rachael
