Driving

On Wednesday December 8th I took my intermediate test. I was sooo nervous. But like everyone told me I would, I passed. The only thing I wrong is when I was pulling out from parallel parking and I tried to go forward while I was still in reverse. I felt so stupid. But regardless, I passed. It felt so weird when I finally drove alone. There was no one to tell me what to do. I could listen to whatever radio station I wanted and no one could turn it off or change the channel. I was alone and it was nice. I love having the freedom to drive alone. It makes life so much easier. I can sleep in. I get home earlier. It is just all around better. I love it.

Finals

Ah the stress of finals is back again. It's the time of last minute grade checking, begging your teachers for extra credit, and just hoping you can average an "A" for the semester. So this semester is the first semester that I do not have the ability to excempt out of all my classes. I mean I would still have to take four of my classes but I had to the chance to choose which ones I had to take. This year I have a "B" in APUSH (AP US History). It sucks, but the final should be easy since we have a nine weeks test right before the final. Along with APUSH I am taking Floriculture, Computer Graphics, and Drama. That means I get to excempt out of Pre-Calc, Biology, English, and Spanish. These are four of my hardest classes. Even though I am taking my easy finals, I still have a lot of studying to do. That is most likely how I will be spending my weekend. Studying.

Winter

The air is changing and I can feel it. My skin is drier and my hair is darker. But not only is my physical appearance changing, so is the temperature. I love winter holidays and I enjoy an occasional snow day, but this constant below freezing weather I cannot stand. I hate waiting for the bus or having to start my car fifteen minutes before I am supposed to leave and then my car still not be completely warm. Clothing is another problem of winter. I like some of my winter clothes the only problem  is I don’t have very many winter clothes. If I had to pick a season to stay in it would probably be spring or fall. It's not too hot and it's not too cold. It's comfortable. I cannot wait until it warms up. But that is going to be a while. So I guess for now I will just have to look forward to a snow day.

GSA, GSP, and whatever else I have to sign up for...

GSA, GSP, NHS, Beta Club, Drama Club...it's just all too much. I'm sick of having to do all these different things just to help me get into college to go and do more work. I hate the requirements. I hate the deadlines. I hate constantly worrying about all of this. It just adds to the stress of school and I'm sick of it. I want to get into a good college and all but it is so much stress on me right now. I just need a break. I don't even get a break when we have a break from school. I'm still having to work on applications and crap. And on top of all the clubs and organization, I have to worry about the ACT. According to my mother I can never study enough. Its bad enough that I am wasting my Saturday away testing. I don't want to spend hours and hours on it every week. I'm just so sick of school!
