66 days...

...of school left in my junior year!! "Inconceivable!!" Haha. ("You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.") Okay, enough quoting movies. Anyways, it hit me again today how close we are to the end of our junior year. We got our schedule request forms for our SENIOR YEAR today!! So exciting. And a lil scary. The school is going back to a 4x4 block schedule instead of our current 6 period day. I don't really care either way because I'll only be there about half the day. Looks like my request will be for: English IV Honors/Dual Enrollment ENC 1101, AP Calculus AB, Anatomy and Physiology Honors, and Government/Economics Honors. Really shouldn't be as bad as this year. Especially since I'll only be taking two of those classes at a time at the school and then dual enrollment afterwards.
Btw, I can't wait for summer!! I am tired of this crazy cold weather. I am ready for shorts and tank tops and sunglasses and the beach (at least once lol) and watching softball games and my niece's tee ball games. And youth camp and VBS. And of course no school.
Okay I'm off to try to make sense of chemistry homework...total ionic equations anybody??

Randomness...

Well, I don't really have anything exciting to tell but I try to blog at least once a week and the last one was last Saturday. So, here's the randomness that has been my week.
Let's see...I got my ACT scores back from a couple weeks ago. I got a 29 which is about what I expected. A point lower than last time but pretty good considering that I Christmas-treed the science section. Ha. The best part is that it's over. No more standardized tests for this chick!! YAY!! lol. Except AP tests. Ugh let's not talk about those.
Umm...I really should be doing my homework for A Tale of Two Cities right now. Or The Jungle. Take your pick. French revolution or meat packaging immigrants? Decapitated people or spoiled meat? Yumm. I have at least finished my study guide for APUSH and done half of my chemistry homework. Other than that I've pretty much sat on the couch all day watching movies - Gifted Hands, No Reservations, and 27 Dresses so far. "B-b-b-benny and the jets!" Ha.
Guess that's about it...
Oh btw I'm eating a banana with chocolate syrup right now. You should try it. Really. Except Chris. Don't try it, Chris. Ha. :)

Happy Valentine's Day...I guess.

Valentine's Day should die. LOL. I do have a date tonight though...with Micah. Haha. He even brought me a gift. And we're having a steak dinner. He's an awesome date. :)
The first half of the day was pretty good too. My best friend and I did a photo shoot with Chris and Ros. And we only got a threat to call the cops on us once...HAHA. It was fun. Check their blog for the pics coming soon.
Anyways, after my date with Micah I will be curling up with my book by Dee Henderson and being glad that Valentine's Day wasn't on a school day. All the red and pink and roses and chocolate makes me want to puke.

Kisses and Disses

Ok so I totally stole this idea from one of my favorite blogs.. I thought it was really cute though.. She highlights the good parts (kisses) and bad parts (disses) of the week. Plus I haven't blogged in a while because there isn't too much interesting going on. So here goes.
Disses:
*Cold weather. I have been so over winter since the first week of December and being that it is now February and I'm pretty sure this is like the coldest winter in Florida so far in my entire life, I'm really ready for like..idk..70 degree weather. I am ready to move back to Florida. (Brittany: "But we are in Florida...") Oh, and I hate the static caused by cold weather...it does nothing for my hair.
*The ACT. Well, even more than the ACT, guidance counselors. I have to take the ACT tomorrow, meaning that I have to be at the school from before 8:00 until 1:00. Not cool. But what's even worse about this is that I wouldn't have to take it again if my wonderful guidance counselor hadn't told me that I didn't need to take the writing portion of the test the first time. Only every major university requires it. Ugh.
*AP classes. This time not because of the work (although that too..) but because I'm actually learning stuff in history. Crazy, I know. The horrible thing though is that this wealth of fairly useless information floods my mind every time I hear certain words or names or expressions. (Ex: "Nasty" - Thomas B. Nast. Political cartoonist of the late 19th century. Defended immigrants, exposed Boss Tweed, loved Grant, lived in NY.) You catch my drift. It's a sickness.

Kisses
*Robin Jones Gunn. I just got the second book in a series by Gunn that I'm reading. I'm pretty excited. It's unfortunate that I really should be reading Killer Angels for APUSH instead.
*My friends. They're pretty much the sweetest. We had a great time hangin out today while we were "mentoring" 10th graders for their upcoming FCAT writing test.
*Pandora.com. My friend Crystal told me about it. You put in a song or artist you like and it creates a "radio station" for you with music it thinks you'll like. It's pretty nice since I'm bored with all the music on my iPod right now. Oh, btw, it's not an actual radio station. It's just called that. It's just a playlist on the internet. I guess I have to include that disclaimer now. (Brittany: "How do you know what number to turn it to on the radio in your car?) ;)
