So, as far as I can tell, no one actually reads this blog, so it's going to start reading more like a diary than an informational blog.
Today was Drive Your Tractor To School Day. It's one of my favorite days of the year. I love how much it adds personality to the town and reminds the prisses here *cough vikki cough* that they come from a hick town whether they like it or not. :) I also love that it makes the day fun, just a time for us to be goofy.
I am also SUPER excited about tomorrow, Rhode's Relays. It's the biggest home meet of the track season and it's an invitational, which means that only the best in each event compete. For Rhode's, it's the top four, which I am!! I have never made it to an invitational, and this was my goal this year, so I am so happy that I accomplished it. I am only competing in disc, which is fine with me. I have been practicing hard all week, and though I am still the dangerous one in the ring (with a few injuries to prove it) I am getting better.
I also have a dress for prom. THANK GOD. I was soo worried that I wouldn't be able to go. I will pry end up wearing Kelly's and she the red one from Clarrissa, which should fit her just fine. I love Kelly's blue one. It's so pretty. I am going with Mykayla which will make it tons of fun!! she will keep me from getting too depressed about not having been asked by a guy.
School going ok, though I am pissed to have found out today that the last blood drive of the year is THREE DAYS before my 17th b-day, so I can't donate!!! I am SOO angry. I have been wanting to donate since freshman year and I can't donate with the school until my senior year. I will pry go to donate in TC this summer. My classes are all good. Nothing too big in any of them. Got an A- in webdesign for marking period, so I HAVE to get an A on both the marking period 4 and my exams to keep up my GPA. No worries, though.
Mom and Dad are coasting... again. They had a big fight over Easter, but I think everyone has calmed down. Though I still don't know how i feel about them getting back together, I don't like them fighting like this because I automatically put in the middle. I hate it. I wish they could get along, at the very least.
I got my ACT scores back a few days after the last post..... i got a 32!!!!! I skipped the april exam to go see my mom, but might still take it again to raise my score to a 33 or 34, maybe!! My reading score alone jumped 5 points, which is HUGE. My parents are both excited about my having a better chance at scholarships and grants, so they are starting to understand the importance of these standardized tests. I am taking SAT on June 6th, the weekend before exams. Not my choice, but at least I will have completed my junior year and be reviewing all the info, so I will be completely up to speed on the semester. Hoping for an awesome score!!
Um, boy front looking mostly bland. A couple guys have caught my eye, but nothing too serious at this point. Still hating being single, but I am not desperate enough to degrade myself. I want a guy to like me for ME, not for a girl I am pretending to be.
I am reading the Awakening for my last english paper. I have only just started, but I have already found some scary parallels to the situation with my mother, which kinda hit home. I didn't even mean to read a book that was so close to my life, but Kelly said it was a good feminist book, which it has been. Just a little too close.
Sorry this post is so long... lot to say i guess
My writing has picked up a little. More on the auto than the others because the auto is kind of what anchors me to the world, gives me something to look forward to. I love that I can write about myself, but also make myself happy, while still keeping it real. It's not ever going to be published because I tell my secrets and thoughts, some that aren't even mine, but i use it as practice. I take some scenes from my book and edit them to fit into another book. it's worked pretty well so far.
I think that's all I really need to say. Again, if there is anyone that actually reads this, sorry that it is so long.
XOXO
