Home, home on the range...more like the Alps!

It's snowing buckets! I'm pretty sure there's over three inches of the wet stuff on the ground outside my house. Oh BTW I'm at home now! I just put on my favorite fuzzy socks, and I think I'm going to get to bed really early! Yay! And I can stretch out extra far because my bed is a queen, whereas my dorm bed is a twin. Joy. But I do kind of miss my dorm a little. But it is nice to be home. :) Ok, I think I'm going to go now, since I don't have any homework tonight! Goodnight!

2nd Day = Success! Except for getting lost once...


I've had such a good day. I'll go class by class:

Art: At this point, it seems like it'll be a breeze. The teacher is very uhh chill? I guess that's how I'll describe her. We're going to be building cathedrals apparently, so I need to do a little research on how they are made and such. Besides that it seems alright.

Bible: I got lost getting to class. UGH. The school has to seperate third floors, so you have to go up the right set of stairs of course. Which of course I didn't. Twice. FAIL. Anyways, I eventually made it to Bible. And all we did was watch a movie on polygamy(sorry bad spelling probably), which was really depressing. And you know what our homework was? He doesn't want us to come back the next day married with thirty two children and four sister wives. Sounds easy enough!

Technology: The teacher makes me really nervous. She's so serious, and is probably not the kind of person you want to get on their bad side. Of course I did by drinking...in a computer class. They do call me the smart one you know! But the class should be really easy. I pretty much know how to work Microsoft Word/Office and do powerpoints anyways, so another easy class. :)

Economics: Strangely, I think I'm going to really like this class! The teacher is really nice, and he reminds me of someone I know already, so that's pretty cool! And he's funny, which is a plus. And I sit right in the middle of a pool of sunlight, so it's perfect. And we had no homework, plus the textbook are really tiny, which doesn't matter because we dont' even have to take them home with us. Score!

English III: After a ten minute break to chill and such, I get to go to a really fun class. The teacher is super nice, and funny as well. Apparently those teachers are pretty tight, so that's awesome. And we're doing this....Grammar Rodeo. It sounds a little weird. LOL But it's all good. Though I have to figure out a way to print out my grammar quiz I'm giving to everyone. Oh joy. But besides that it's all good.

LUNCH: Lunch is basically a class period because we have a whole stinkin' hour! It's crazy. And the food was pretty good today. And the cafeteria staff is super nice! And they have hot tea! I love it here. :)

Middle School Orchestra: We had a sub again, so we played musical bingo! Lovely. The kids are cute, but get to be a little obnoxious after a while. :P But hopefully tomorrow it will get better.

Choir: Because we had a sub, I went to choir even though I was supposed to go to Orchestra. I did NOT want to play Bingo again! Anyways, I'm going to really like choir. A couple of them seem to be a bit annoyed that Ms. Thomas called me the soprano leader, but I think I can hold my own with them. Personality wise I mean, singing is a definite. LOL Oh you know what made my day? Ms. Thomas said I'm going to have a solo in the spring concert!!!!!!! You know how much of a big deal that is? Mrs. Bowen never let me have a solo! Even though I was the obvious one who should of had it! Justice is fair!! And it's one of my favorite hymns! Too bad I can't think of the name of it. UGH. Oh well, it doesn't matter, she's giving me a solo! I feel like I've found a friend in her too, which means so much. :)

Oh, tonight I went to my first ever basketball game! It was fun. I actually have some school spirit! Shocker. LOL
I think I'm going to bed now. I'm pretty wiped. Either that or start my George Bush biography. I don't know. But I'm going to finish this post either way! Goodnight!
Oh BTW the picture is me in my dorm on my first day. Pretty great, right? ;)

Moving in!

So, I'm officially in my dorm at TKA!! I'm so excited. I don't necessarily want to start school, but getting to meet new teachers, new kids, and have new classes WITH completely new teachers in a new enviroment is going to be pretty cool. The uniforms though, I'm not too excited about. But that's just a little thing I suppose. Oh, and my dorm leaders are so nice. And my dorm mates are pretty cool too. They're from Taiwan, China, Korea, and New York. So that's really neat. And apparently I'm the only girl in high school band? That should be interesting. But the sax player is from Brazil! And my roommate is from Uganda! Though she's not here yet. She and her twin are on a plane, on their way here....so I don't know when my roomy is going to make it. Oh well. Maybe I'll meet her tomorrow? Tomorrow is going to be cool, because my routine is going to be a lot like Governor's School! I wake up, go to breakfast in the cafeteria, walk to school, have classes, have free time after school, do study hall later, then free time before bed! So cool. But anyways, I guess I better go to bed, seeing as I'm not used to waking up so early, because I haven't been in school for a good three weeks. *sigh* But it's not going to be like my old school! YAY! That is, I hope. UGH. I guess I'm just going to have to wait until tomorrow.....goodnight!

Last Full Day of Winter Break...


It's the first day of 2011! Or I should say, it's 1-1-11. Pretty awesome I must say. Though that's the only really exciting thing about today. All day I have literally been sitting in bed, burning CDs of music from my "old" computer, and then reburning the music onto my new computer. Fun. It's soo tedious. Though I guess in the long run it'll be good. Even though staring at two computers for eight hours is NOT beneficial. But oh well. Tomorrow after church I leave to move into my new school! I'm prettye excited, though I don't really want winter break to end. I throughly enjoy sleeping in, taking naps, and doing whatever I want to my leisure. But all good things come to an end of course. So I'll enjoy these next few hourse I have and rest up as much as I can! I'm going to get back to my "project", but I just wanted to post something for the first of the year!
