Key Largo Was a Blast But...


~~~~Studious

I have so much to do now I kinda wish we could have gone a week I didn't have school. Sure, it was nice to be away for a week and know that everyone else was toiling away at their desk (I guess that's the evil part of me).

But now I have to prepare for two A.P. Tests and I lost an entire week of studying for them. I mean, I read a lot of my A.P. European History review book on the trip... especially in between getting... well... you know ~~~>

I'm having waaay too much fun with my mice today

But now my friends, I must bide you farewell, for there (on top of my A.P. Tests preps) is Expos & Humanities waiting for me!

Joy & Rapture.

Back From Key Largo!


~~~~Exhausted

I'm home from Key Largo and my Marine Biology trip and I had a blast. Other then the fact that I learned that I get extremely seasick, I just took some high-test Dramamine and it was great. I saw sea turtles, sting rays, manatees, sharks, and other sweet fish. I'll have to post some of the better pictures I got after I get them developed.

Unfortunatley, the last day I was stupid enough to leave my wallet on a bus that we weren't getting back on and now it's still in Florida. My mom had to fax a copy of my passport at 11:30 last night to make sure I could get on a plane today and now I have to get in contact with the bus company to try to get my wallet back. My dad canceled my credit card so the only thing I need to really worry about is the around $30 in the wallet and my driver's liscense which does have my social security number on it. However, it's still in the hands of the bus company so I don't think anything will really happen to it. I have to call the company Monday to see if they found it and what they plan to do about it. I've never messed up like that so I was really suprised that I did yesterday. But, now I learned my lesson and I'll never do that again. At least now I won't lose my wallet when I have multiple credit cards, other important cards, and lots of money. I hope I get it back soon!

If I Hear the Verb 'is' One More Time...


~~~~Grumpy

I'LL GO ABSOLUTELY NUTS!!!!

I'm in World History right now and, of course, Mr. Kilbreath is saying the word 'is' one too many times. Here's an example of a typical Kilbreath sentence (commas equal pauses in his sentence):"And, by the way, is, he, is, only 32 by the time the French Revolution began." Wow. That's all I have to say is just, wow.

I have so much to do today. I have an A. P. Biology test I should start to study for. I have oodles of Expos since I'm leaving next week. Also, I have a FST quiz tomorrow and, of course there's my A. P. Euro test May 6. So much to do, so little time! Oh yes, I forgot about the two scholarships I need to finish this week. *Grrr* I hope I can manage this...

Where Did My Week Go?


~~~~Hungry

I knew this would happen. I'd get back from Spring Break and my teachers, in a desire to give seniors one last push before they graduated, have piled on the homework. Unfortunately, next week I won't be at school (or blogging) because I'll be in Kay Largo with my Marine Biology class. Therefore, I am now doing homework for two weeks in one.

A.P. Biology I have to study for the A.P. test on my own because I'm missing a week of review . Expos I have to turn in 150 notecards, 25 sources, 14 questions, and an abstract for my 10 - 14 page paper. Also, once I get back I have to churn out this paper in a day. I'll get all my FST work done before I leave but in Latin I have to basically finish the Iliad and write an essay for each book. I want to get as much done before I leave as possible.

Tonight I need to study for a Fish I.D. quiz, finish an Expos book, find 6 more Expos sources, read an European History chapter, and get my fins for snorkel.

Yesterday I got "The Complete Idiots Guide to Surviving College." I've read the first two chapters and it's very interesting. I already know how to deal with my laundry and that I need to spend the extra cash for the health insurance that covers the hospital in the college's town.

Guess I better get to work...

Have You Ever Noticed


~~~~Sore

Have you ever noticed that movies have more appeal if you happen to catch them on tv instead of popping them into your dvd player? I know that's kinda random but I was thinking that I have nothing to do so I was gonna put in 'The Princess Bride' but then I turned onto VH1 and there's some random movie on that I kinda got hooked to. And I realized that 'The Princess Bride' is so much better then this movie but the fact that it was on tv and I just happened to find it made it more appealing. Isn't that odd?

Anywhoo...

I really should do my Marine Biology and clean my room but I want it to be a slow day so I'll do it whenever I decide. Maybe take my Marine Biology to Seattles or Muddy Waters and enjoy some coffee while I work on it. I just started an iTunes update but it's gonna take an hour to download and I'm worried the people from the Apple Store will call me today so I think I'll finish it later. My iPod's battery is being fixed and it's suppose to be done today. I shouldn't spend much time online because of that. I don't want to miss the call saying my iPod is ready! I miss it yeah, that's me when Gloria isn't in my life *tee-hee*

Damn You Good Title!


~~~~Awake

Basically damn you in this instance because I can't think of you. Maybe it's because I'm watching That 70's Show. I'm sure it's rotting away my brain... ah, but it's sooo addicting.

I did poop today. I think poop is my word of the week. Once more I think my brian has gone down the pooper this week. Let's hear it for spring break!

Anywhoo, today I woke up at 10, watched TV until 1, made some english muffin pizzas for lunch, played with Shelby outside, read my book, and took Shelby for a walk. That's a big pile of it that I've done. I had planned to read my AP European History book, written some Expos notecards, and cleaned my room. I've really done none of that. Plus, tomorrow Mom and I are going shopping and getting my iPod fixed tomorrow. So I don't get to do any of those things tomorrow either. But those are the only things I have to do this week so I'm not worried about it. There's still Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday...

Miami Was A University When Florida Still Belonged to Spain


~~~~Pleasant

If that's the only thing I learn at Miami U I think I learned enough. Okay, I'm just kidding but still, I think that's a pretty interesting piece of information.

I'm currently in Oxford, OH. at the Hampton Inn (yay for free wireless) waiting to leave for the accepted students reception at Miami University. I still have no idea if I'm actually going to Miami or not but it's technically the only school I've gotten into so far. I got wait-listed at Gettysburg and I'm still not sure where I want to go. Miami is nice, I like it here.

The rest of the week I have spring break. I'm watching Tom's dog because he's in the Bahamas (how unfair) and Chanda's watching Oliver today. I also plan to go to the Apple store to get my iPod fixed. I need to do that before I leave for Florida.

I'll be home late Monday night. Dad and I were just talking about my college computer and HE thinks I should take the old computer in the basement to college. Uhhh, BIG check in the no box. How do I explain to him now that I have every intention in getting a laptop. Oh dear.

Dad just said the Fravel twins didn't get into Miami. *tee-hee* I'm so evil.
