There is nothing too exciting happening in my life right now... school. soccer. sleep.

I have had a lot of test lately in school. I had one today, one Thursday, and 3 on Friday.

I also have had a ton of soccer lately. I had 5 games this weekend and I haven't had a day off in 6 days. This weekend we start to play outside... it is still kind of cold here so we will see how that goes!

Right now I am one of the "layout people" on the newspaper at my school. This week or next week they are going to be deciding who will become the Layout Editor next year for the whole newspaper, and I am really hoping that I will get picked! It may sound dorky... but it is actually pretty cool to do the layout. It is kind of like a puzzle, and I am really into graphic design sort of things.

Other than all the tests school is pretty good, but it is hard balancing between school soccer and just being able to have some chill time to hang out with friends or relax. I am still in the process of picking my classes for next year. I think that I have it just about all figured out though!

Superior Soccer

This weekend has been pretty crazy so far...
I had 4 soccer games yesterday! Also, my brother had 3 soccer games and a basketball game. I wasn't home for a least 11 hours yesterday. By the time I got home I was so tired!!

There is nothing really exciting going on right now. I have two tests on Tuesday (Health and English)... I have another soccer game tonight... Also, tomorrow since we don't have school, me and three other girls are going to the mall to work on our project. We are actual going to interview people on what they think of jealousy. That is our topic for our poem project. I think that it will be really fun, and hopefully we will get a good grade!

Manic Monday

I have never really liked Mondays... It means it is time to go back to school, time to wake up at 6... But it is even worse when you have 2 tests on Monday!

I feel like I have had to study all day! Now that we are a couple of weeks into the semester it means that we are finishing units in almost all of our classes which means that we have tests and quizzes in all of those classes. This semester I have Health too, so that is one more test that I have to take. Although health may sound like it is easy, it is actually pretty hard!

Because of all of the snow days we are almost two weeks behind schedule in our classes. That means that we get more homework, so that has been a little overwhelming. We also have to add two days to our schedule to meet all of the state requirements.

Other than that there is really nothing new...

Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow!

Last week we ended up having Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday off! Not only did we have all of those days off, we also had Wednesday off this week! Unfortunately, I think that we are over the snow day limit by a couple a days... we will probably have to make up days in the summer

I am starting to get a lot of quizzes and tests now. I have two tomorrow and I also have two on Monday. I am really excited though, because my school selected some people to come listen to all of the opportunities that my school has avalible in the Science field. I think that it will be a great opportunity to see what is ahead of me in the next couple years and they will also be talking about careers in science.

Today at school, we had about an hour and a half to go around to some of the elective class rooms and learn more about the courses that we can take next year. It was very interesting to hear all of the teacher talk about the classes. The thing that was probably most helpful was going to the Spanish III Honors teacher. I am not in Spanish II honors right now, but was recommended for Spanish III Honors. I am afraid that the jump will be difficult, but I talked to the teacher and she said that she thought that we would be fine.
