in this moment




Today was the last official day of school, and I only had one class--ceramics. After that I went to my photo class to clean so she would raise my grade! That sounds kind of lame, but at least I took the initiative to do what it took to get and A. My mom would be so proud. My grades are much better this term than they were last term, and I'm pretty happy about all of them. What really bugs me, though, is that my grade in English was an A for the whole entire term until yesterday. I got a 20/29 on the final, and that's not super horrible. I didn't think it was bad enough to drop my grade 3%! But oh well, it's finally just over. One more year of high school! I'm also really excited to go to graduation this Friday at the Marriott Center! Whoo!

Last Friday me and some of my friends went to the Brick Oven to celebrate my friend Hailey's birthday. It was really fun, and I haven't been there in forever! After that we watched Step Up, and it was the first time I've seen it. I only got about half way though, because -suprise!- I have the earliest curfew out of everyone.;) I am so abused.

Tomorrow is yearbook day! I LOVE yearbooks, but it does get annoying to write for a couple of hours straight. I'm so excited though! :)

I won't say I'm in love...

Finally all of the AP tests are over, and homework is starting to wind down where I have almost nothing. Actual school isn't necessarily easy yet, but a couple of weeks will change that. I don't even know what to think anymore. I love not having to do homework and waking up at the of dawn everyday, but it's all going so fast and I have no control over anything. When I think about the beginning of this year it does seem like a long time ago, but I can't believe I'm almost a SENIOR! A year from now I'll be graduating and who knows what else. I just wish I could switch the people in my class for the current senior class, with a few exceptions of course. Too bad I'm stuck with these people for another year! ;)

Isuzu Troopers are my current weakness...every time I see a dark blue one I go crazy.
Why? You may never know...

I it when people sign up to play a sport when they're a teenager and, conveniently, they've never played before in their entire life! What are they thinking? You'd think they would at least try, and actually RUN instead of walk everywhere. It seriously isn't that hard!!

I have also recently fell in love with the color orange! That reason will also remain unknown! Ha.

I have really enjoyed watching the Jazz play in the playoffs. I really thought they could win last night in LA, but they lost a really close game:(. They're getting closer every time, however, so when they win at home this Friday then they can steal the series back in LA in game 7! Woo go Jazz!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE David Archuleta! He not only the cutest person in this world, but his voice is soooo amazing! Oh my I was so excited that he made the finale! I knew he would all along, but it's so fun to see his reactions because he's so genuine about everything he does. His version of "With You" by Chris Brown on Tuesday was the greatest performance ever! I already loved that song, but he made it 10 times better! I can't stop watching it on YouTube! The judges gave him crap about it, but obviously they don't know good when they see it. GO DAVID!!!

That Summer

I will be so glad when next Wednesday is over with. I have two AP tests I'll be taking next Monday and Wednesday, which are Government and Calculus BC, respectively. I am pretty confident I will pass the Government one, and maybe even get a four! The Calculus one worries me a lot, considering my schedule for next year weighs heavily on the score I receive. If I pass--I don't have to take math at all next year, and I get some serious college credit! If I don't--I have to rearrange my whole schedule for next year to take the class again and have another chance of passing! I will also have to drop some of the other classes I signed up for. I choose passing! I barely passed on the practice test we just had...but hey, it's still passing! We're also doing another practice on this Saturday, which I think will really help me!

As much as I want next week to pass, I strangely don't want school to end. I have never felt this way before, and it's very weird. It's definitely because of the senior class--I love it a lot, and don't want them to leave sooo badly! I know this sounds bad, but I really don't like my class at all. Next year won't be fun. I'm sure it will end up being alright, but I don't even want to think about that now. I think that being football manager caused me to meet a ton of seniors that I'm now friends with, and also that a lot of my classes are mostly seniors. My class is so boring, and even the sophomores beat us in Spirit Bowl! (This big competition we have between classes to earn the coveted Spirit Title! It was super embarrassing that everyone killed us...) I still can't believe I don't want school to be over, but I really, really don't.

Graduation- Vitamin C
A really cool song that sums a lot about high school...
