Thanksgiving Break!

I took my Drivers' Test today and guess what?!?!?!

I PASSED! I only got nine points off! And I didn't have to parallel park at all. :) I thought it was a lot easier than I imagined it to be. The only bad part was that we had to spend 2 and 1/2 hours at the DMV since our tests were an hour apart. I was sooooo hungry and crabby when I got home!

We are on break right now for Thanksgiving. We have today, Thursday, and Friday off of school. I am so happy. I have two birthday parties and a get together with some friends I haven't seen in a while. I would like to go and see a couple of movies this weekend also. Tonight I am getting my hair cut. Probably just a trim, though, nothing drastic. Ok, I am going to stop typing now.
Oh btw we went to Copps today but Megan wasn't working...sadness

Yippee Skippee

Wow I haven't posted in a while...
This week I have a lot of quizes/tests. We start bowling in gym...yay (note my sarcasm). Rachel (my partner) can't bowl because her arm is still kinda messed up and she broke her nose over the weekend so she is in a lot of pain. We played ping-pong today and that was fun. This week is the school play which Hannah and Jessica are both in. I think I am going on Friday night but I'm not completely sure. It should be good.
I have my last drive-time on Saturday and my test is looming ever closer!! :-/ I'm really scared!

4 Day Weekend!

Yay! This weekend we had Thursday and Friday off so we had a long weekend. It was lots of fun. On Thursday we met Hanna at the mall early so we could do some shopping. After going to a ton of stores I ended up with a pair of jeans from American Eagle and a shirt from Maurices. I love them both, but especially the shirt because it is stripey! :) On Friday we were going to go to a movie with Nina but this weekend doesn't work. Oh, well. I guess I'll just have to see it later. I really want to see two movies actually, The Final Season and 3:10 to Yuma. So Friday Mom had Cormac and we just did stuff at home and wend grocery shopping. Then Saturday I wasn't feeling all that great, so I stayed home and read/listened to music (I got an awesome new CD on itunes)/watched television. Today I had church and then we ate an early lunch. I think we are going to paint our Living Room sometime in the very near future so we may be getting paint and moving furniture sometime today.

AAAAAAAH! WE'RE GOING TO VISIT BECKA IN IOWA!!!!!! YAY!!!
Sorry Hanna is not in the picture, but Megan and us took it during Orchestra.

Homecoming Weekend!

This weekend our school had its Homecoming weekend. The theme was 50 Golden Years since it is the school's 50th birthday. Kinda cheezy theme, huh? Well anyways the parade was canceled because of "bad weather". It was really sunny and only rained for about a minute. Erin and Leah picked us up on Friday night and we went to the football game. It was fun. Nobody was sitting and everyone was talking and goofing around. It is more of a social than sporting event. When we left, MHS was losing 35 to 14. They have only won one game I think throughout this whole season. It is kind of pathetic actually. Saturday Paula and I just hung out and waited until 5:00 when Nina and Hanna came over to get ready for the Homecoming Dance! It was a blast. I am proud to say I did Hanna's hair very well (with a little bit of Nina's help at the end!) We got to the dance fashionably late which was okay because the only people who get there on time are the stupid freshman who don't know anything about prober Dance ettiquette (I know I'm mean.) It was super loud and they played mostly rap music, but other than that it was okay. I danced with a boy :-P (Ok, it was Mitch, but he's still a boy...) And we met Erin and Leah's German Exchange Students. They are so nice but I think the dance overwhelmed them a little bit. Jessica brought her friend from North, Kayla, who is also really nice. I got home at 11:30 pm and crashed.

Ugh!

School started on Wednesday. It went okay for the most part. I like all of my classes except for Civics. If this explains anything, we have six football players in our class. Oh, and about 3 or 4 druggies. The teacher is nuts. That is probably all I need to say about it. But German, Orchestra, and AP Lang and Comp are great!
Finally it is the first weekend! This morning we went to the Farmer's Market with my mom and got a bunch of fruit and veggies and other yumness. :P Later today we are probably going to get together with Erin and Leah to get everything ready for the Fall Festival next Saturday! :) I am excited for that.

Lost and Found

Yippee! Paula found my ipod yesterday! I thought it was gone for good.

I haven't posted in a while because I've just been so dang busy. Tennis started (obviously) so I have had matches twice a week and practice every day. It is going great. Erin and I have only lost 2 matches as a doubles team which is pretty good for this season. We got to see varsity play at one of our matches and that was pretty sweet. I've been juggling my social life around tennis and other randomness so sorry if I haven't talked to you in a while. What with school shopping, last minute get togethers with friends, AP Lang and Comp homework, getting ready for the Fall Festival, and organizing a movie night (it WILL happen eventually, Megan!!) I have had little time to do fun things. Tomorrow is 1/2 off at Savers for the Labor Day sale so Paula are going bright and early to hunt out some bargains. On Tuesday we are planning a half-day trip to Menomenie's bead store with Erin and Leah before our tennis match. Hopefully we'll be done with that by 10:30 at the earliest so we can get to bed for school on Wednesday. AHHH!!

<----This is Paula's $20 Prom dress from Savers. I thought somebody should put a picture of it up since she hasn't yet. I'll have to post a pic of my $10 Homecoming dress. Hey speaking of which, does anyone know if they're going to Homecoming yet?
