Day #83: Scripture of the Day

August 7, 2011

This one jumped out at me this day (Alma 32:23). That when speaking from the Spirit, even little children can say really profound things. Also, one of my young women's leaders' last Sunday. She's one of my three friends that I actually have here. I'm so glad I'm doing online school this next year.

Day #38: Last Day

June 23, 2011

Last day of high school ever. I was planning on going home and doing some introverted activities since it was nice out side and I'm artistic so that makes more a lot of options when it comes to introverted activities. But I actually got invited to last day of school fun. I didn't think I would, and it was just about at the last possible moment which is a little funny to me. My friend called me after the bell rang to see if I wanted a ride home because she didn't want to drive alone then asked if I wanted to help her make sandwiches and go to a picnic she was invited to. So I said okay. Turns out most of my aiming high kid friends were there. It was sunny and fun. We were at this park that has some farm animals then trails down to a river that runs through the county. There isn't much of a shore at this time of year, but it's still so pretty.

After the picnic I went home and did some of my introvert activities that I still wanted to do then went to Five Guys with my family which was the only fun, social thing I had actually planned for that day.

Those are all the good parts of this day. I don't want to talk about the bad ones, which the day was still rife with. In the end they probably..actually there's no doubt that they out weighed the good parts of my day. But that kind of happens a lot.

Day #37: Introvert

June 22, 2011

Last day of finals, exhausted, 3 out of 4 of my classes I had finals for, 2 of which I was genuinely worried about, headache, sad day, skipping youth group, watching So You Think You Can Dance with my sister and mom.. I really needed to be an introvert this day. After your last final and you are home free with just one half day left which is a say goodbye day a normal person would be excited and probably party with their friends. I was excited and also poop tired and didn't want to see anyone. I can definitely accept my introvert well.

Day #36: Finals

June 21, 2011

Every time it occurred to me that I only had one real day of high school left ever I became less and less motivated to study for my finals the next day. Even though they were the hard ones. One day so close to never having to go back, ever. When that thought keeps popping into your head the last thing you want to do is review mRNA, and logarithmic equations.

Day #32: Spongebob and AP kids

June 17, 2011

So, you know how AP kids aren't usually AP at all, just a certain kind of kid? Turns out almost my entire AP US history class {which, granted, was about 15 people} was the kind that are more silly slackers. The other AP US class, which was the period before ours was made entirely of the kind of kids who are actually quite, do their work, and are serious about the course.

Due to a series of events {which our rowdiness was in no way a part of} we had 4 different teachers throughout the year. The last one was the only teacher who liked our period better than the period before ours. We all had a grand time together, including a discussion about Thomas Edison and light switches which quickly turned into Spongebob. You know, the episode where Spongebob and Patrick are trying to keep an egg alive and Patrick is turning the lightswitch on and off saying, "Life! Death! Life! Death!"

One of my friends drew it in my yearbook:)

Oh, AP..

Day #31: Nearing Summer

June 16, 2011

I exorcized the archives of this semester in my room. And all the papers I knew I wouldn't need for classes that I either didn't have a final in or I had already done the final. It made quite the pile. Most of it is AP US history, which that is from all year and consists of an incredibly large portion of this pile. It feels so good to clean things out, but it's almost a little frustrating to only clean some of it out and not all of it.

Day #17: Algebra Quiz

June 2, 2011

I finally took the algebra quiz that I was avoiding last week..well..I was mostly avoiding the quiz. Anyways. I felt really good about it after taking it even though I had been almost completely unprepared! Whoo! Pretty much the highlight of my day considering how much stress algebra 2 causes me.
