A blog about life through the eyes of a teenage girl.

I am so ready for this week to be over! It's been dragging on and on, and right now it's only Wednesday. I feel like it's a Thursday or Friday. I wish it were, because I have so much homework this week and really nothing to look forward to until the middle of next week. At least then summer will be right there, but it still seems so far away! It's making me crazy.

I got my ACT scores back yesterday. They were good, but I think I'll retake it. I really wanted one score and I just missed it by two points, so I think I'll shoot for that.

Graduation is Friday! I have to be there to escort the seniors down the aisle. I just keep thinking: next year that will be us! I really can't wait.

School is so close to being out! I really can't believe it. And then after that I'll be a senior! It's so weird to think that, but it's happening soon. I just remember being a freshman and thinking how long it would be before I was a senior, and in reality time flew. That sounds really cheesy, but I feel like for the past two years I've just blinked and the school year was gone. It's unbelievable.

We also got a new puppy. Her name is Sadie, and she's really cute:) She's some kind of a hound, and my mom and siblings picked her out at PetSmart a couple of weeks ago. That's a picture of her up there. :)

What a crazy few weeks! I've been completely swamped by activities, tests, and homework. Last week was the ACT/PSAE, which was stressful. Plus, while the PSAE was alright, the ACT was torture. Also, this week was the AP Lit test, which I think I neither aced nor bombed. It was just kind of so-so. On top of all this, I have two Powerpoints due this week, a paper due Sunday, and did I mention this is May Fete week?

That's right, tonight's May Fete. I'm super excited. That also means that in three weeks, I will officially be a senior. That's crazy. I can't even wrap my mind around it. I'm really glad I'm almost done with high school, but where has my time gone?

Spring is here! I'm so excited. My favorite time of year is that day when you wake up, and the sun is shining, and the birds are singing. And you just think, "The world's alive!" We've had a couple of days like that this week, and boy am I glad.

Also, spring break is here. Even though I'm not really getting that far away from town, I'm going to my dad's for a few days. I haven't been there for more than one night in months, so it'll be nice to have some time with him. I just hope it will be warm!

This is going to be the last time I write for a few weeks, because of break and the ACT/PSAE. Let's just hope everything goes well!:)

I always forget about this until the last minute, so this week I figured I'd get it out of the way early. That way I don't freak out at eleven o'clock tonight because it's slipped my mind.

The play went great! It was a lot of fun, and I'm really glad I did it. I've been so busy with it lately that it's weird to not have to be there all the time. I can't wait to do it next year! We're doing West Side Story, which I think is awesome.

Prom is tomorrow! I'm pretty excited. I hope it'll be a lot of fun. My dress is taking forever to finish, though. I was supposed to pick it up Wednesday, but when I got there it had a hole in one of the layers of skirts! They had to fix that, but my mom's going to pick it up in the morning so everything should be fine. I can't wait!:)

The play is tonight!!! I'm really excited about it. I've never been in a musical here before, but I'm glad I did it. It's a good experience and it's really fun. I'll be glad to have all my time back, but it will be weird to have all that free time.

I get to go to that journalism conference! I'm sooooooo happy about it. I literally cannot wait to go. Also, it's at George Mason University, which is one of my top picks for college. My picture was in the paper for it, but it was a really embarassing picture that my mom happened to have on hand when they called to ask for it. Haha. But that's the only downside to the whooole thing:)

I completely forgot to do my blog this week. I always forget until last minute, but this week I literally forgot until tonight at the dinner table. It totally slipped my mind.

The play is coming up this week! I'm really excited because I love Beauty and the Beast (yes, even now.) Also, everything looks really cool and sounds good. It's going to be a stressful week, though. We had practice until ten every night last week, and this week is going to be worse. We have dress rehearsal two nights and performances from Thursday night on. And last Friday, we did a flash mob at Wal-Mart! It was a lot of fun, and a ton of people showed up from the cast. Everything on this show is going great:)
