The only thing worse than getting sick is thinking you're over it.... then, bam. *sigh* I'd gladly sacrifice a year or several of my life to never get "sick" again... Of course, that would mean that I'd die of somethi…
It snowed last night! =)
There is a rather strange characteristic of vacations. You spend your school (work, whatever) looking forward to them; but as you traverse through Paradise, it gets rather... boring. Not to say that I don't enjoy my va…
I think I had the flu last night, but it's all gone now. =)
Christmas was good, I suppose. It was as it normally is -- our family spent the day together, opening presents, eating, and just sitting around. I got out once -- went with Kyle to give presents to a couple friends tha…
What happened to the Christmas spirit? I remember when I was younger -- the almost uncontrollable excitement that mounted, day after day, as Christmas Day drew nearer. I rememeber wondering what we'd do during Christma…
Yesterday, our debate club had our (third?) annual Christmas party. It was ok; I was reminded that even homeschoolers can be loud, boisterous and obnoxious at times. Even without alcohol. ;)
It doesn't really feel like Christmas to me, but that's ok. I have what really matters. =)
Marianate wants me to update my Xanga, so I am. Well, I hope to be able to enjoy the holidays. Despite a number of things that... could be better, Christmas is still a time to celebrate the happy things... like the Rea…
When girls say they need X hours to shop for presents... they're wrong. My friend and I got all our presents in half an hour. Target is the best store ever... along with Costco... all-purpose stores rock. =)
I'm lonely. Maybe I should get a job...
Ahh... I'm back from Curtis's (and Doycie's and Marian's...) house! I've learned some important lessons: 1) If girls ask you to go shopping, refuse -- no matter how much they beg 2) Remember to bring candy on trips!!!…
I went shopping with Curtis and his 2 sisters. *sigh* That is, if shopping consists of Curtis and my running around as his sisters practically race from store to store for hours... without even buying any clothes. ;)
I'm at Curtis's house! I went home with them from Seattle this morning... we've had a Chinese brunch and a Chinese dinner. Figures. We watched Master and Commander, and after this we'll watch Bekah's LD Final Round …
http://www.homeschooldebate.com/phorum/viewtopic.php?t=4868 just makes me feel all warm and happy inside. =)
School is officially over. My finals only took me 25 minutes or so to complete... not bad at all. =) It's time to enjoy the holidays -- and get ready for Canada. It's gonna be a blast! :D
I still find it difficult to get used to the concept of "sleeping in." Now that I no longer have regular classes at school, I don't have to get up at frickin' 6:30 every morning. But I still do. I don't try to, but I …
I haven't been able to sleep in on a Monday for quite a while. So that was nice. =) I didn't have anything to do until 12:30, when I played drums for Victoria's "Worship Leading Methods" class at Northwest College (wha…
Whoever said, "Love makes the world go 'round" was wrong. Love makes the world stand still. =)
Due to the very... windy windstorm, we lost power from noon Thursday to 5 pm Friday. I hung out with Hannah after debate and speech... her house didn't have power either, so we spent the evening at Barnes and Noble pret…
Well, the first quarter of my senior year is coming to an end. 1 quiz and 2 finals, and I have an almost month-long break ahead of me. One thing that bothers me about Christmas is the whole "presents" thing. I haven't…
I was going to write about everything that happened at our first debate tournament of the year last Saturday, but I have neither the time nor the energy. Sufficed to say, it was awesome. =) But what's even more awesom…
