I decided shortly after (or before, can´t remember) coming here that I wouldn´t write in my lj because it would make me homesick and prevent me from thinking in Spanish. However, after being here eight weeks I´ve gotten pretty much over being homesick every time I think about the US. And it´s just silly to say that this makes me think in English ( Read more... )

This morning I said goodbye to Elspeth and Abbie. They've both left for camp by now (Elspeth to canoe camp and Abbie to Iduhapi). It's really sad and scary to think that that's the last time I'll see them for half a year. And if I'm this sad now, how am I going to feel when I leave this whole city and everyone I've ever met up to now? On Thursday I ( Read more... )

Upon Abbie's behest, I have taken this quiz-thingy. I now know everything I've always wondered about the romantic side of my personality, or "the keys to my heart".

The Keys to Your Heart

I probably shouldn't be on here, because it's Laura's eighteenth birthday, but she's on her computer anyways. Ostensibly, I turned on this computer to do health homework. Ha! Yeah right. The health website is so screwed up I don't think the teacher even knows what she wants me to do ( Read more... )

Well, I practiced clarinet today. About the fourth time since summer started, so I'm really behind. Also behind on health homework. Gah. I feel incredibly like a teenager right now. I'm sitting here in a SKIRT, updating a livejournal, and I spent half an hour on the phone earlier tonight. The skirt part in particular is really throwing me off. It's ( Read more... )

Just to add: new layout. On a scale of 1-10, how bored would you guess I am? Correct answer: off the scale, so much it doesn't even matter.

I feel really crappy. I want to stay home from school tomorrow, but I don't think I'm going to be sick enough to justify it. I can't drink liquids because they make my throat hurt, and my nose has been runny and stuffy at the same time all day. I don't really feel nauseous, but sometimes I just get the feeling that I'm going to throw up. (I know ( Read more... )

OK, so I feel a little stupid now. Apparently when you're on people's friends list it automatically pops up when you update. So a couple people (aka. Laura and Kristi) do read this. Oh well.

Well, today I lost the letter. This week at school I wrote a letter to myself to open in the future (I completely stole the idea from Laura, who did the same thing at Oxbow), and now I can't find it. This wouldn't be so bad except the letter has some really personal stuff in it that I don't want anyone else to read, including my family. I guess ( Read more... )

Okay, back again! I went to the soccer meeting, talked to the coaches, and discovered that I'm not on either team! Apparently they're going to wait until I'm better, & then stick me wherever there's more room. I can't do anything like try out again or influence where I wind up at all! So I basically get to wait another week or two and find out. Yay ( Read more... )
