Back to School


Hey... so that was pretty much me this morning. haha I know I didn't post anything... all summer. I have one word- sorry. I did however keep a summer journal, and that kind of sort of counts right? I'm going to say it does.
Anywho, the first day of school was pretty good. The only thing I hate about the first day is the nerves. I get very anxious the night before and the day of and I just feel odd all day. It's like a bunch of butterflies in my tummy. I would never eat a butterfly... or a caterpillar however. Really though, now that I think about it, if I did eat a caterpillar I think it would die before it could turn into a butterfly.. umm.. yeah.
Right, so anyway, I had a great first day. My schedule is just about perfect and my teachers are amazing. This year, in case anyone was wondering, I am taking:
Algebra 2 Honors
Chemistry Honors
Choir
Smaller group choir
Latin 2 Honors
English Pre-AP
and
History Pre AP
I'm am sooo relieved that I get to take Algebra 2 now.. all of the math teachers that I have ever had have said that it is pretty much the hardest math class ever. All of the other teachers I have ever had also say that Junior year, which is when average people take Algebra 2, is the hardest year of school you will ever have. I have heard that Junior year seriously swallows kids alive... and I really don't want to be one of those kids. I need to have amazing grades this year and that year so that while other people's class rank will be going down, my will move up. I need a good rank to get into the colleges I want to go to. haha
I still cant believe that summer is already over and so is the first day of school.. time just keeps going faster and faster..
Or does it?
Maybe the time speeding up is all in my head..
Time is a man made thing and it can't really move any faster.. yeah it must be in my head.
Anywho, before I get to confused I should probably get ready for bed. It's already 9pm and I am exhausted. Bleh.
I can't wait to go back to school tomorrow! I already know what I'm wearing haha!

Ciao!! <3

Summertime is Only one Short day Away!

(One of My hands for English)

It's 1:14am and I can't sleep, so I decided to blog. I could clean... and I probably should, but that isn't very interesting and can be done later tomorrow... or today? It's not like I have any homework to do. :) Speaking of homework. Last week I had to write a poem for English and I have decided that I want to post it. I thought it was pretty decent for someone with no writing abilities... my teacher liked it.

Dare to Dream


Newborn; so pure and innocent,

hands not yet soiled,
restrictions and rules nonexistent.
to Live.

Little Child; alone in the world
and yet surrounded by others,
looks to familiar stories for love.to Desire.

Young Adult; always analyzing, reviewing, preparing.
legs not yet adjusted
to the vast world that surrounds them.
to Wonder.

Parent; protective, positive, and patient.
arms that hold on tight to the child
with so much in store.
to Wish.
Elder; wanting to turn back the clock,
to go back to their prime,
thinking back and moving forward.
to Remember.

Departed; leaving this place for the next.
knowing that they've been found,
and that theirs is a brighter world.
to Believe.
Live, Desire,
Wonder, Wish,
Remember, Believe,
to Dream.

Dare to Dream.
for it is the food of the mind, body, and soul.

Dare to Dream.
as it is the mind in a purer form.
nothing is impossible to the heart that hopes,
and the mind that does believe.
take my hand,
follow me, and just-

Dare to Dream.

So? Not too bad I hope. Don't be afraid to tell me what you think of it. :)

I realized that for awhile my blogs have been somewhat... whiny... haha sorry about that. I'm not usually, but I have to let it out at some point, you know?
Good News!
  1. It's finally summer vacation, which means..... NO SCHOOL TILL AUGUST!!!!
  2. I made both A Capella and Madrigals! (The two top choirs at our school)
  3. I'm finally a Sophomore! Yes! I'll kind of miss my goldfish title though.. :/ Aw well.
  4. I added color to my blog posts!!
Well it finally started raining, so maybe I can hopefully catch some ZzZz's. I have a bunch to do before the family and I leave for our vacationing. Goodnight!!

P.S. I promise to do something music related in the next post.
