Today was amazing... and I am actually lying down and going to write a real post on why it was so good. first off, this morning sucked. plain and simple. I hate school, lord help me if I have trouble getting out of bed in the morning, it is what it is. So woke up normal time to my parents singing happy birthday which was nice, but then I didn't want to get up so there was a little bit of drama over me actually rising. However it turned into a beautiful day. I got to have dinner with my family by the river and ran into one of my friends Prom group which was funny.
And about 5 months later I don't remember a thing....I do remember that one person out of the some twenty who had promised to make me a cake did and it was a very pleasant surprise!
The rain cometh soon! They are forecasting one crazy storm...
So, I guess I have not been quite as regular in this posting thing as I should be so I figured I would post three or four pictures to make up for my recent lack of photosharing.... I have no real caption for this one.
Today is Tuesday... and what a Tuesday it was! With English skit performances, chemistry labs, and phone repairs, it was not a bad day. MY PHONE FINALLY WORKS AGAIN!!!!! In chemistry our class has effectively been taught three units in the past eight days, today we started a lab. Tomorrow I have to make up a couple quizzes I missed. Thursday I have to make up a math test I missed. Friday I have to deal with in class discussion on Brave New World, which as it so happens I actually read! But finished forever ago...and am at a loss trying to remember all the nitty gritty little details.
But, this all does not take away from the fact that I survived performing in 19th century grab, hoop skirt and all, a play that I had all of 14 hours to memorize before being video taped by an unsympathetic classmate. Knowing my English teacher, I probably did not receive the best grade, I'm thinking C maybe B, only because my group got so turned around saying our lines. Oh well. Today is special though, because my mom went to the trainer and nutritionist today... personally the woman did not tell my mother anything she didn't already know. She just said it all using bigger and fancier words. So now my family is on another health kick. I have to eat 9 to 10 vegetables and fruit a day for a week, before the introduction of sugar creeps its way back into my life.
I feel bad though, I splurged in a moment of weakness and bought ice cream at lunch today, horrible I know, but it totally ruined my little good streak of exercising after the end of the crew season. Speaking of which, I am so sore, it is unbelievable.
This is a picture of an activity my class did in AP world trying to figure what event was most influential in our history...
Today was interesting, I finally turned in my English essay on the relationship between the Lee/Custis family and the slaves at Arlington House. Oh research papers.... I am not a fan...
