I’ve given up on giving up slowly, I’m blending in so
You won’t even know me apart from this whole world that shares my fate
This one last bullet you mention is my one last shot at redemption
because I know to live you must give your life away
And I’ve been housing all this doubt and insecurity and
I’ve been locked inside that house all the while You ( Read more... )

So....all you people who endured the horrors of A.P. gov last year-am I the only one who doesn't know what I got on the AP exam? Just wondering :)

If you want to know something about me, why not just ask me?

Yes, this is closely related to my last entry, but I thought it was worth putting on here. This may seem Dr. Phill-ish, but hey, I love him.

• Exercise and eat regularly
• Avoid excess caffeine intake which can increase feelings of anxiety and agitation

Just a day, just an ordinary day
Just trying to get by
Just a boy, just an ordinary boy, but
He was looking to the sky and
As he asked, if I would come along
I started to realize
That everyday he finds, just what he's lookin' for
Like a shooting star, he shines
And he said

Live while you can
Don't you see your dreams lie right
In the palm of ( Read more... )

Wow....is Christmas really next week? Is my brother really coming on Saturday? Are my family get togethers really only 2-3 days away? Do we really only have 3 days of school left? Am I getting on the nerves of people who are reading this? Can my headache go away for just a little while so that I can study and have things to turn in tomorrow? ( Read more... )

These last few days have been pretty good. Monday I had a ton of work and made two appearances at conferences. The first time, I asked Mr. Conway for help with the math homework. The second time I went with my mom. It went well. I got good grades, and my teachers were nice. Tuesday went by so fast, especially for a full day of school. We ( Read more... )

I think the band concert went well. I know that there was a lot in the music that could/should have been better, but I'm still really happy that we went through with a Fall concert. It's senior year, I want as many band performances as possible, especially since our marching season got cut short. I'm also happy that I did not mess up my solo. ( Read more... )

School is going pretty good at the moment. Journalism is annoying, but I guess that's what happens when you are a senior in a sophomore class. Calculus is wonderful ;) I know everyone loves to spend hours programming graphing calculators. It only really annoys me though when Mr. Conway thinks we know way more than we really do and we are ( Read more... )

So far, school is going pretty well. I really like my classes and teachers...the only thing I don't like is the work of course. The football game was fun tonight. I LOVE the football games and I like to cheer too. Defense! Defense! Anyway, we went to coney afterwards. Michele had an interesting experience. The waitress was all like, "I ( Read more... )
