I TOOK MY DRIVERS ED CLASSROOM FINAL TONIGHT!!!
I don't know whether I passed or not, but I'm just glad I took it. I'm actually going to miss it and all the people I've grown to put up with (haha, just kidding...all of them were pretty nice actually). And tonight, I actually saw some people I KNEW for once. Which just so happened to be my last classroom session. *sigh* But anyway, they were four sophomore guys and I was so relieved to see people I knew so I just sat with them for the two and a half hours which was okay. Plus I also met a new girl who was nice too. She sat across from me and we helped each other out on the worksheets every so often. :)
I think a really funny part of that session was when our instructor was going over some expectations for the actual drive test, and she said, "Absolutely no swearing," and half the guys started cracking up, and she said something like, "Even in a different language. I can tell when you're swearing because of the tone of your voice," and practically the whole class thought that was hilarious. Anyway, we couldn't stop laughing for awhile. Most of the guys at my table were whispering and stuff, like saying the names of people who would totally swear or something during the behind the wheel test, or just laughing if they knew that was something they'd definitely do, and it took us awhile to shut up and listen.
So yeah, I feel like a great milestone has been passed. (=
And my parents surprised me and we went to DQ. I got a Reese's blizzard...yumm(;

#1 Thing That Throws This Girl Off
BIG THING. VERY BIG. YOU SHOULD ALL KNOW THIS.
#1. I absolutely CANNOT STAND IT when people touch my hair.
My Exceptions To This Rule:
*You have to be a friend of mine that I completely trust
*This friend has to ASK MY PERMISSION first. *Valuable key words*
*They have to have a REASON. You can't go, "Oh, I just wanted to touch your hair," and creep me out like that. I won't talk to you for awhile until I'm not freaking out anymore.
MY HAIR IS OFF LIMITS. I know it's beautiful, but hey, refrain yourself. XP
Got that? Thank you<3

This is what I do when it's late at night and I'm tired but I can't sleep...
So now you know what I do at almost 11PM. I'm either
A) sleeping
B) reading
C) blogging
or D) whatever else there's left to do.
So yeah. I'm really bored so I decided I'd update on my week, considering the fact I haven't posted since Monday. So Tuesday night I played volleyball and we lost both games, which wasn't THAT bad (okay, I was frustrated but mostly with myself). I need to remember to try out my new vb shoes and braces tomorrow at practice, because I've had problems with my right brace and I need to get stuff worked out (decide whether we're going to take that one back to Aries to get a new one or just keep it) because I don't want it failing on me in the middle of a game, if you know what I mean. and me going, "Oh, don't mind me, my brace broke! I gotta go take it off!" and attempt to postpone the whole game, 'cause it doesn't work that way. So that was what I did on Tuesday. The only thing that I did well was I had killer serves the whole game and racked up quite a few points. (; I apparently serve very low and very deep. I like how they're kind of hard to get a good pass on. :)
On Wednesday, I played volleyball (no shocker there, I'm so predictable - this is like, all I ever do) from 9-11AM at the high school gym. It's open gym so it's not mandatory, but I like going anyway to sharpen my skills. I got in some good downballs and serves but my right arm (from my elbow to my shoulder) was in searing pain. Like, I felt serious shots of pain shoot up my arm every time I hit the vb or served or whatever, so I might start learning how to hit as a leftie...THAT'll take a LOT of practice, considering I'm finally getting the hang of hitting downballs right handed. XP then after that, hmmm...what DID I do? I actually can't remember so sorry I can't tell you. :(
Today being Thursday, I just kind of did nothing all day which was pretty nice but kind of lame because I was bored. I woke up to my dog barking like a mad person (not that people bark like dogs, but still) and screaming, "Shut up, shut up!" until my sister finally got out of bed and let him out, which was nice (considering I'm up at like, 6:25 most days and she gets out of bed at like, 11:00. I seriously can't sleep in that late anymore - it drives me crazy. Sleeping in and doing absolutely nothing. I used to be fine with that when I was younger but now it's like, "DUDE I'm wasting my life away, get with the picture!"). ANYWAY, after that, I finally rolled out of bed and attempted to make pancakes (I can usually do a pretty good job but today I can say that I epically failed). Instead of turning the griddle to 300 degrees, I did like, 350 and burned the first batch (heehee...my bad), and they tasted funny and yeah...so whoever eats my cooking, beware!!!! *ooooo* I can't cook to save the life of me - I can't even make soup in a can. The only thing I can cook is Cup O' Noodles probably and even then, I don't heat it up enough so the noodles turn out kind of crunchy which is just gross, so I'm very untalented or unskilled in the culinary arts, if ya know what I mean. So then after that, I just fixed myself some fruit and read for a few hours, then I played MarioKart with my mom when she came home from work (I pretty much attempted the whole time to kill Luigi...he's not my favorite MarioKart character, if you couldn't tell already. TOAD FOREVER!<33) and then I just kind of sat around doing nothing. So pretty much it was a boring day.
But tomorrow volleyball might get interesting 'cause our coach won't be there so we might just end up doing either hitting lines or scrimmaging the whole time. Then I might go running tomorrow afternoon and I have plans that evening. So I won't be lazy(=
Talk to you peoples later....my eyes are starting to get tired so I think I'll catch some shut eye now.
PS. When I ramble like this, you can tell I'm tired. XP plus if you look at the bottom corner and see the time that I am typing this. XP Which is actually a little AFTER 11PM. So goodnight all!<3

A Few Summers Ago
Sunday, July 15, 2012
Halfway Through Summer....:(
I seriously cannot believe that I'm going to be a junior next year and I'm already halfway through high school. It's like, unreal. But I distinctively remember my first day of freshman year like it was yesterday. Weird, huh? Anyway, I have all my classes which I'm really excited for. (=
Secondly, I'm really excited because I get to visit a local college tomorrow! I'm going to ask questions involving scholarships, majors (I want to get a double major in teaching and music education), etc.
Thirdly, I'm very annoyed because my sister keeps going on and on and on and on about England and how great it is. No offense to those from England, I like your country too, but hearing about it 24/7 from a 12 year old psycho One-Directioner is a little annoying. Still, no offense(=
And I had my third drivers ed class tonight, which means I have my last one next week which is the same week I take my final. Wish me luck!
Oh, my final thing directed to Emma and Ellie - can I take a picture of our lovely drawings in your driveway and post them here? I'm still laughing about the "enemy" story and your response, Emma. (= Kids these days....pshhh.
LOVE YOU!<333

>.O.< <--- whatever that thing's supposed to be
OH MY GOODNESS. I just realized that pictures need to be up here. So you can all see my lovely face, lol(; just kidding.
Mostly so you guys can see what I've been up to this year. Nothing too eventful...but I need to brighten this blog up!!! (so you can actually see pictures rather than just read a bunch of words)

4th of July(=
Happy 4th of July to every American everywhere!!
So yes...today was the Fourth and my day was uneventful. I woke up late (second time this summer I've slept in, record for me) not feeling very well, which was a bummer, and reread Scarlet again (that book never gets old). Then I went with my dad to my grandparents to pick up this ice cream maker (BEST ICE CREAM EVER), and ended up talking forever. I also got to drive, btw. Anything to grab a few extra hours(; and then my friend Emma and I went running then she came over and we went swimming! Then I just read Scarlet again and had food, then watched some TV and I'm in my bed, typing this at like, 11:20PM precisely.
Interesting Fact: John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, two signers of the Declaration of Independence, had a feud between each other or something and both ended up dying on the Fourth of July within hours of each other.
**See? I actually learn stuff in school! (=
