Finally done

Midterms finished up on Wednesday. :) Just in time to get, yes, another snow day. This one I found quite unnecessary, we got about three inches, and it was cleared up by about 8 A.M. I would have been much happier with a delay or something. After-all, Thursday is the best day of the week, I mean how much better could no math, no Spanish, long history, and long band be??? There is nothing better that's the answer!
The tests haven't gone as well as I had hoped, so far anyways. 79% on my algebra one, 88% on history, and 92% on gym. I know your probably asking how we could have a gym mid-term, right? Well, our teacher decided we should have 50 questions on the game of badminton. There are so much more rules to this games than you would think. It's pretty ridiculous. Another one of the gym classes our teacher has, had an average of 57.4. That's so crazy, right?
Anyways, next thing, hockey of course. My new obsession/love. Our school team is so good this year. Undefeated in their devision, except for the game they tied our rivals which was absolutely terrible considering how much trashing I did in their favor the week before the game... They had a game against a school at the top of the division above us. A little unfair, don't you think? We lost, of course, but everyone, including the referee, told them that if they play like they did there against every other team in our division, they would win every one. :) My friend, let's call her my hockey buddy, has very strict parents and cannot go to the games with me anymore, which makes me sad. We wanted to go to a Bruin's game in April, she was going to ask her parents for the tickets for her birthday, but they decided it wasn't a good idea and said they would buy her an Xbox 360 instead, so they don't have to drive her around anymore ): It's absolutely terrible! I just hope they ease up a little by the time she becomes a senior and we become hockey Superfans. :)
Time to watch one of my favorite movies now, updates later!

One more..

Yet another snowday this week, today obviously. Postponing our midterms yet another day, thank goodness. I would have had my honors algebra two and honors physical science midterms today, my two hardest ones. So anymore time to study is better!!!
The entire hockey team is currently over my house because my parents decided to host the "spaghetti supper" the day before their biggest game of the year, against our rivalry. It is going to be a pretty intense game. I'm pretty sure about half the school is going, then not to mention half their school. It will be crazy there, no doubt!
Anyway, back to the team, they are so loud! But since you can hear them talk clearly, we hear everything they are saying and they are also HILARIOUS! This one kid, he's a senior, every time he needs something done for him, he gets one of the freshmen to do it. I'm pretty sure they hate that, but that pretty much initiation isn't it??? :) They are leaving pretty soon however, they have to be home "early" to sleep enough for the game. (Like that's really gonna happen)

Four Day weekend=sleep-less nights

Martin Lither King Jr. day means no school. So that's a wonderful three day weekend. Plus one snow day. Four day weekend. This all adds up to a fantastic body-clock freak-out. I typically sleep at midnight on weekends until about ten or eleven. I obviously cannot do that on school days, for I have to wake up at 5:30 AM. I've been laying in bed for over two hours. I've come to facts that I need a way to fall asleep and I haven't come up with anything quite yet... Any ideas? Anyone? Feel free to help me out. :)
Would you like to catch up on my life? If you care at all. Last time I told you about the musical at my school. Well, I guess auditions went great because you are officially looking at (metaphorically speaking) my schools newest tap dancer for our musical! I'm very excited. Rehearsals start Friday I think. I am almost positive there is only one tap song in the show. But I'm okay with that. I am only a freshman after-all. So this is fantastic.
You also know a little bit about my issues with my boyfriend. Well, it's over anyway. As of last Thursday. I'm pretty much cool with it by now, but I still don't really feel like talking to him, but he insists that we need to be best friends like the minute after. No, thanks. I was in a pretty bad mood the next day. But I didn't really want to tell anyone why. There is only like two people who know. But, seriously, how are you supposed to randomly just tell people you just broke up with your boyfriend? Kind of an odd way to start a conversation don't you think? Well, I do anyway.
On a better note, I had a dance competition last Saturday and I believe it went amazingly. I had two dances this year, the first time I have had more than just one and we nailed both of them! Golds in both. Plus, the judges freaked over one of them. They were smiling the whole time!!! After all this, my family and I (when I say family I mean my dad, mom, 2 of my uncles, 2 of my aunts, and two of my cousins) went out to eat at the same place we do every year. And it was delicious and super fun like every time with my family is.
On Sunday, a couple of my friends came over my house and we built a really adorable snowman! His hair was made out of a rotting banana peal (which smelled quite nasty I might add), we used black candy wrappers from chocolates I got this Christmas for his eyes and buttons. And of course we used sticks for his arms. After this, we had macaroni and cheese and played "old school" on my Nintendo 64 I found in my closet. We had a great time. It definitely added to my super fun weekend. Until I got to Monday.
Gotta love the day before mid-terms. Study, clean, shower, and facebook was my life on Monday, until I had a dance class. Which was certainly a fun break. Then, on the my current favorite show that's playing new episodes, Pretty Little Liars. I can officially say I am hooked on that show. :) And since it's 12:21 AM at the moment, I think it's about time to see if I can sleep again. Wish me luck!

The Show Must Go On

Today we had an info meeting at school on the spring musical this year! I am very excited. I know it's a musical, but I cannot sing. On the upside, there are roles for just dancers, LIKE ME!!! In case your wondering what this musical is, it's Chicago. Our school has done so many neat plays that all turned out wonderful in the end, so I'm sure this one will be just as good, if not better. So many of the upper class-men in my school are wonderful singers, dancers, and actors. I'm glad mot of those people are actually going for a larger role than just a dancer. Which I believe will just up my chances in getting a part, sometimes being a freshmen makes parts that upper class-men are going for difficult.
My first audition is THIS Friday, and Monday. I'm so nervous! Until today I didn't think I would do something like this. Guess it's time to start something new. My only major concern for this is it may just interfere with the beginning of my lacrosse season. I hope not. I just have to ask around and hope it all works out. Wish me luck for auditions! :)

Back to Reality

Thanks to my oldest brother and his four new college friends, I fell asleep around three A.M., just to wake up two and a half hours later to rush out the door and head to school, something I was clearly NOT looking forward to. My brother and his friends left even earlier than we did for their ski trip, so I would have assumed they would have gone to bed quite early, but they did not. They decided to spend their time watching late-night, pointless TV, and being as loud as they wanted to be. The only one in my house not bothered by that was my other brother, who claimed he slept like a baby, just without the waking up every couple of hours.
When I finally dragged myself out of bed at 5:45 AM, I rushed to get my outfit and make-up on, and throw my hair up in to a messy bun. When I got out of my room, I realized I still had just about twenty minutes until we left, which actually made me surprisingly angry, which I am unaware still why I had gotten so upset.
School started out quite average, English class first period, boring as ever with vocabulary and words of Charles Dickens I hardly understood. Science came next. If I hadn't mentioned it before, I HATE that class, with a burning passion. We did a dumb, and quite frankly, pointless laboratory, in which we had to run up a flight of stairs, which is not surprisingly very hard to do on low, morning energy. Of course, crazy Mr. J had lots of energy to go around. After this, it was time to head to another one of the classes I despise. Think you could guess what subject that would be? I find the answer to obviously be, Algebra. Honors Algebra II, to be exact. The whole class is practically stuff I do not understand and make simple mistakes all of the time. The only bright side to this class is that I sit next to one of my best friends, Kevin. He is hilarious, there is no such thing as being in a bad mood when you are with him. Finally, I got to experience lunchtime, once again with Kevin, and a couple of my other good friends Trevor and Ben (Just a heads up, I know most of my friends are boys). Soon after, I had my favorite class of all, history class. My teacher is amazing and nice, the class is fun and really funny, and the work is very simple. What more could you want in a class? Just following history, I had Spanish class. I'll tell you about that another time, it's a long, annoying, and just dumb story. Finally, and I do mean finally, I had band! The easiest thing of the day, just kicking back doing one of my favorite things with my best band buddy right next to me cracking jokes the whole time. Now what could be better?
The worst thing about Mondays, besides the lack of sleep and energy, homework. I seem to get the most of it on Mondays, most likely because it's the day I have most of my homework-giving classes. So as soon as I got home, I alternated between homework, and cleaning my room. When I decided I was done for the day I watched a little television until I could finally get to my weekly dance class. Those are always loads of fun, once you subtract the pain to your feet at least. But that adds to the joy :). Anyway, I think you have heard enough of everyday life from me for now, haven't you?

Is it Wrong?

Happy New Year everyone! To start this Big New Year off, I hung out with my best friend, helping her babysit her adorable little cousin. Soon after I got home, I had to go to my brother's hockey game... Well, I guess I didn't exactly have to, but I did go. They won because they didn't play against one of the better teams in their league. After, we had a nice family, home-cooked meal made by my mother. Soon after, everyone left to watch the hockey Winter Classic and someone else's home, and I wasn't too fond on making an appearance.
I decided to watch a movie, the one I had picked is named "A Little Princess." The film is pretty sad throughout the hour and a half. I decided to text my boyfriend and tell him about it, and as expected, he didn't care. I don't know why I expected anymore of him, but I did. Don't you think he would realize that he should care about things I care about? Do any guys? So this leads me into the question I've wanted to ask someone all day: Is it wrong to cry over your boyfriend everyday? I just wish I had more friends who were girls, with experience enough to help me out. I guess that's too much to ask for isn't it?
