Summer
Summer time is nearing and I'm so excited. I can't wait until school gets out. I will be a senior next year. One more year left and then I will be gone. Off to college I go. Junior year is getting stressful and out of hand. We have everything going on plus the school work and home work I have to do. I also work a job and my life is getting a little crazy now. I can't seem to get it together. No matter how hard I try, I always seem to go back a little farther instead of going forward at all. I'm just so stressed right now.
Henry
This is Henry. I put him as my background on my computer whenever I am sad. He somehow cheers me up and makes me feel better. He's just sooooo cute and I can't help but smile every time I look at him. I do random things to make me feel better. Right now, my background is a picture of me and my boyfriend. That picture makes me happy too. I just like to be happy and have a positive attitude and if pictures help, that's how I am happy. It's just the simple things that bring a smile to my face and joy to my heart.
Prom was GREAT!
Prom was great! It stopped raining right before prom and didn't start again until after prom ended. It was so nice. Thank you Jesus! I had a really fun night. My dress was very pretty and I loved my hair and make-up a lot too. My nails were beautiful too. All my jewelry went well with my dress too. I was excited and I had fun with my boyfriend, who also looked very nice. It was stressful before prom making sure everything got done, but it all worked out in the end. For dinner, we ate at Seth's grandmother's house. They cooked for us and set the table really cute. After prom, we went back there to watch movies and have snacks. It was so much fun. For me to sleep comfortably though, I had to take over 50 bobby-pins out of my hair. My hair was so pretty though. I absolutely loved it. We woke up the next day and had breakfast. I was a little on the sick side because of all the rain. I'm better now though. My pictures that I have are pretty too and I just wish I could look like that all the time.

Evansville
I finally convinced my parents to let me drive to Evansville. I'm going to a concert at Boney Junes and then to the mall to hopefully find some earrings and jewelry for my prom attire. I was extremely excited that I finally get to drive over there by myself. It is only 45 minutes away and I know that's not very far at all, but still the thought of being able to go by myself just makes me all warm and tingly on the inside. I am glad that my parents finally trust me enough to let me go alone now. My boyfriend is the only one who is going with me and I hope it is fun. I also don't know what I am going to eat while I'm over there. Since, I have my own money, I can buy the food that I want and put gas in the car and go places that I couldn't before. I'm so happy!

Macbeth
I like the play Macbeth but I just don't like the Shakespearean language. Its so hard for me to understand sometimes because of the way he worded things. Shakespeare's plays are so pretty and exciting, but I can't really get into them because I don't understand what half of it means. Freshmen year, we started Romeo and Juliet, and it wasn't that bad to understand. We also didn't finish that play either. Sophomore year, we read Julius Caesar and it was extremely hard to understand. We had quizzes on that after every reading too. It was very difficult. Macbeth is okay to understand at parts and going over what everything means helps a lot too. It lets me know what is being said. Also, I found this site on spark notes and it gives you the original text with the modern version right beside it. I used that this morning and it helped me a lot to know the significance of the quotes and to whom they were talking to directly.
Math...
So I finally have an A in math and I'm totally excited about this. I have worked so hard in math to bring it up. I also found a good way to review for math tests. I used to be one of those kids that didn't know how to study for math tests, but since I started struggling, I have figured out a good way to do it using the book and my notes. I am so happy because I have put a lot of effort into bringing my math grade up for not only me but my parents also. I maintain mostly an A average with maybe one or 2 B's, but I had a C in math and that just wasn't going to fly for me or them either. I worked and studied and did example problems and copied notes and did extra problems in the back of the book and memorized formulas and wrote notes over and over again. It has all payed off this far because I have an A now. I just have to keep up the hard work and keep the A that I have now, but I know I can if I keep trying the way I have been and don't let small problems and struggles get me down.
Sears
I finally got a job at Sears. I am a cashier and I work in the mens section. I work about 3-4 days a week after school and on the weekend. I hunted for a job all over spring break and I finally got an interview for sears. I had my second interview the very same day. and I got hired that day too. It was great. I was so proud of myself and everyone else was happy for me also. I finally have my own money and I can buy things that I want and I don't have to worry about my parents yelling at me for having to put gas in the car all the time. I can put gas in the car all by myself and they don't have to pay for it. That is a great feeling. I just love it and so do they.
