No Work..

I'm here in Spanish II with nothing to do. Only two more periods to go for today! The day is almost over, and I can't wait!! As soon as I get out of school, I'm leaving to Hebbron to see my grandma at the nursing home. When I get home, I'm going to help my mom make cupcakes for her students for Halloween. Since she and I won't be going to school tomorrow, we are going to drop off the cupcakes to her aide. This morning, I met my dad here in Benavides because he was on his way to work in Zapata. He dropped of some money for me to take to Corpus tomorrow to buy all my homecoming stuff. I wish it was already tomorrow morning. I'm so excited to go shopping for everything. I'm going to get an early start and leave to Corpus at about 8 am. I probably won't be back until late at night because I have a lot to buy. I might even decide to spend the night there at my aunt's house if it gets too late. As for my chapter assessments, I'm done!! I finished chapter 8 last night, and I made a 92 on the first attempt. I'm satisfied with my grades on all the chapters because they are all A's! I wish I could go to the Halloween carnival tonight. I was really looking forward to the haunted house!! But I am going to go see my grandma since she's sick. I would feel bad if I wouldn't go because I haven't seen her in a while. Anyways that's it for today. I'll talk to everyone later!! Have a great day :)

A Little Less Stress

Ok so it turns out that my stress is gone.. well most of it is. The spanish II projects are going to be due on Friday instead. Since I won't be in school, I'll turn them in on Monday. That means that I don't have to do them both tonight or be rushing. I really should get atleast one done because this weekend I have to do my rough draft for the research paper, and I have to read an accelerated reader book so that I can take a test on it for a grade in english III. As soon as I get home I'm going to read chapter 8 for this class, then probably do a little bit of the project. I'll also get together with a friend for a while. Afterwards, I'll continue to work on my spanish projects. Then tomorrow, I won't go to the halloween carnival because I have to get a lot of things done. Unless I try to make time to have a little fun. I'll try my best. Anyways it's eighth period, and I'm tired from a long boring day. I'm going to stop right now. So I'll talk to you later! Bye :)

Stress!!

Ok I don't even know where to start! I have sooo much work to do this week. I'm going crazy!! I have to finish reading chapter 8 for this class so that I can do my assessment. I have to do ten to twenty notecards by tomorrow for Chavera's research assignment. I have to do an outline and a works cited page by Thursday. I have to have the rough draft by Friday. I have to do two spanish II projects by Thursday. Oh my gosh. It's unbelievable. I hope I can get everything done without stressing out too much. It's a lot of work. I need to start on the notecards today for sure!! Obviously since they are due tomorrow. I don't have 4 X 6 notecards though, so my mom is taking me to San Diego to get some. I'm also going to get some posterboards for the spanish II projects. Or atleast for one of the project. Luckily, the due dates for the Tannen thing and Personality powerpoint have changed. I was going to be more stressed out if I had to do the Tannen Activity by Friday. I can barely even find time to blog!! Since I can't get started without the notecards, I decided "Hey I'll do a bloggy blog." So... here I am, blogging whatever comes to mind. So today was picture day. I didn't think it was going to be until tomorrow, but yes it was today. Luckily I wore my hair down. I was going to wear it up, but I was like "No. I like it down. :] " I hope the picture came out good. I was laughing a little bit because Danielle and Nikki were telling me stuff in the background. LOL :). But I don't know. We'll just have to wait and see. Ok so I think I'm going to stop right here. It's 4:59, and I have no time to waste. I'm off to San Diego to get my stuff. I'll talk to you later loves!! Bye :)
Have a great day!! <3

About to do some work..

Heyy! :]
Well once again, I'm blogging in TAKS since I don't want to do study island stuff. I'm probably going to start doing my chapter 1-4 assessments right now. I have A's on all of them.. a 96 on chapter 1 and a 92 on chapters 2,3, and 4. I want to try to get higher than a 92. If not, it's no biggie. It doesn't hurt to try though. It's just hard because it doesn't tell you which one's you missed. The questions are kind of confusing, and it seems like multiple answers could be correct. It's hard to decide which one, even if I use the book for help. I really want atleast a 96 on all of them. I don't think I'll get a perfect score, but then again a miracle could happen. I'm going to start on the assessments. So I'll talk to everyone later <3. Byeee. Have a great day :]

Bored..

Hey everyone! I'm here in TAKS.. or TAP, whatever you want to call it. I just finished doing a thing on study island. I didn't want to, but I had to. Since I finished, I decided to get on here and blog for a little bit. So far, my day is going ok. I wish it would go by a little bit faster though. I want to get home and start reading my chapters 5-8 for the class. I haven't even started because I have been extremely busy with other stuff, such as my english III research project. I have CCD tonight from 7 to 8 so there's an hour that I'm gonna lose. I'll probably just read chapter 5 tonight and save the others for another time. I need to get started on the other assignments for the class so that I won't be worrying about them at the last minute. I need to do them before homecoming week because I know I definitely won't have time to be doing work. There are so many activites going on, and I don't want to miss out because of assignments! This weekend, I'll probably try to get everything out of the way, or atleast most of the stuff. I was hoping maybe to go shopping this weekend or go to the movies. I don't think that'll happen. But then again, maybe it will :). I hope so. Hmm.. so I really don't know what else to write.. or type... Well this Friday is the eagle band's last time marching for this football season. :( It's so sad for the seniors. I'm going to miss them. Anyways, yeah we won't be marching on the following Friday(halloween!) because we don't have a game. The following Friday, it's homecoming, and the half time is dedicated to the coronation of the king, queen, and all that. I really hope we win these last two games. Our guys deserve it!! Hopefully we go to the playoffs. I love watching them play. It's so exciting. I don't want football season to end :(. Anyways, I think I'm done for today. I'll blog again soon. Maybe! Probably tomorrow, if I have a chance. Talk to you all later <3. Bye!!

Before I relax..

Hey there! I just thought I'd log on to this blogger thing and write a quick on before I chill. Ok so I just got back from the band competition in Robstown. We made a 1!! I'm very excited. With all of our hard work, practices on Monday nights, sacrificing our straight hair in the humidity in the mornings, we definitely deserved this. I'm glad we got a 1 because this was the last band competition for the senior class of '09. They are saying bye bye to marching contests but leaving with a satisfying rating. I'm extremely tired, so I'm going to take a shower and probably go to sleep. I just wanted to let everyone know about the competition. Have an awesome weekend!

Hm..

Hey! What's up? I just finished my power point on "Listening Skills". Well I still need to add the narration, but I don't have a mic. I'll get it from my mom's classroom tomorrow. I plan to complete the power point before I get ready for the game. I'm so excited for tomorrow. We have to win! I wish our guys the best of luck because they really deserve a victory. Tomorrow is the last practice before the band has to compete. Competition on Saturday is making me feel stressed out. Wish us luck because we have all worked really hard. Other than the stress of competition and assignments, my week has been really fantastic. I got A's on my assessments, I did the power point and all my other work for this class. This weekend won't be too relaxing because like I said, I have the competition, and I know I have some projects to do. Maybe I'll make time to hang out with someone. We will just have to see what happens. I'm off to blowdry my hair(ugh what a hassle). I'll probably watch tv and text after that. I'll blog again tomorrow after the game. Bye :)

So Much To Do!

Hello everyone :)
How is everything going? Hope all is well. Hmm..well I just got out of the shower. I had band practice earlier, and we worked really hard because competition is on Saturday. We want a one!
We deserve a one! There is so much to do this week, I feel like I'm going to go crazy. I have to read the book for the class, I'm going to take some test(not sure what it's called) at school, I have to watch the presidential debate/do the assignment on it, I have to start my powerpoint on listening skills, I have to go to the game, and I have to go to competition. That means the only free day I have is Sunday. And I really don't like Sundays! I'm pretty stressed out, but hopefully I can get things done and be successful :). Oh yeah and I also have to pick a topic for a research thing in English III. I don't know what to pick. I need some help deciding. Well once again, I failed to read chapter 4 this weekend. I did read chapter 3 though. I also did the work for it, and got A's. So I'm satisfied with that. I began reading chapter 4 as soon as I got home, and I only need about 6 or 7 more pages. Then I'll do the tests and assessments. I'm going to go read now so that I won't have to tomorrow! Bye :)

Friday!

Thank god it's Friday. I'm so excited for the game tonight :). I have a had a long week and am looking forward to a weekend of rest, kind of. I still have to read those two chapters, but I will get them done. As for today, it's been a really good day. There hasn't been too much work, and I'm glad I'm with my friends. I really don't feel like traveling to Agua Dulce for the game. I wish it was here in Benavides. It's just so much better when we don't have to be at the band hall so early. For home games, we have to be at the band hall by 6. For away games, we have to be there at 5. That means I don't have a lot of time to relax at home. Well it is 8th period, and the bell is going to ring in about 8 minutes. Just thought I'd type a quick little blog since I haven't really had too much time this week. I'll probably blog again this weekend. Have a good one. :)

Too late for me to be blogging

Yes it is exactly 10:49 right now, and by the time I finish this blog, it will probably be 10:55 or something. I was falling asleep after a long day of assignments and working at the concession stand for our junior class. Suddenly at like 10:30 or something, a text message woke me up. Yes a text message. I tried my best to wake myself up to type the word "HEY", and I did.The vibration and the new text alert woke me up even more. So now I'm completely awake and not even sure if I can fall asleep again. I am so glad that there was an extension for chapters 1-4. I said I was going to read all the chapters this past weekend, but I didn't :(. I have chapters 1 and 2 complete, so I just have to worry about 3 and 4. I'll probably do chapter 3 on Saturday and 4 on Sunday. I don't know, but so far I'm doing well in this class. I like it because it's online, and it kind of allows you to work at your own pace. So yes, that's what's going on :). I can't wait until Friday!! Last week's game was sooo good, and I know our guys will play another awesome one. I better get off before it gets too late. Oh hey it is 10:55. My guesstimate was correct :). Byee!! Goodnight <3

The End Of An Awful Weekend

Yes.. It is Sunday morning, and I'm doing a blog. This weekend wasn't to exciting. Friday was fun, but we lost by 1 point! I can't believe it. We were so close!! Our guys played really awesome though. I'm very proud of them :). When I got home from this game, I showered, checked my CBC stuff, texted for a while, and after that was just the start of a terrible weekend. I went to the garage, to get a cork bulletin board with a wooden frame that my mom needs for her classroom. This bulletin board has a wooden frame, and it's pretty big and heavy. As soon as I grabbed it, I dropped it, and the corner landed right between my second and third toe. I screamed because it hurt so much. I couldn't walk. Well, I could but only on my heel of my left foot. It's completely swolen and purple, just the part next to my toes though. Because of this, I couldn't go to the parade on Saturday. I really wanted to go because the band was gonna march, and it's for a grade. Hopefully my teacher understands. Yesterday at about 3 o' clock p.m., I helped my mom clean the garage, even though my foot was killing me. I was standing on my right leg because my left one hurt way to much, and my foot couldn't stand the pressure. There was a chair there so I sat down and organized things so it wasn't too bad. As for today, I'm dedicating my entire day to reading chapters 2-4 and doing the assignments for them. I'll be taking breaks though because like I said, I'm distracted very easily :D . I guess I better stop being a procrastinator and start reading because the chapters are pretty long. Talk to you later! Byeee <3

An Awesome Day :)

Hey there! What's up? Wow! I can't believe the first six weeks of school is over. It went by really fast. I'm glad we didn't have school today though. As for yesterday, since it was only half a day, I decided to get together with a few of my friends to work on the powerpoints for this class. They (Tracy, Mariana, and Gigi) came over at about 6, and we were waiting for Amber to come in from Alice so that she could work with us. Honestly, we were too busy having fun that we didn't start working until 8:30. :) We laughed and acted very silly, especially Tracy. I have never seen that side of her, singing, yelling and everything. It was pretty scary lol. Anyways, worked until about 10:30. We finished the power point with ease. It was a lot of work though, to get the narration and slides timed right. It was worth it though. Overall, I had a good day yesterday with my friends. I'm glad we got those assignments out of the way. Now just to worry about the other power points, these journal blogs, and the chapter work. I think I'll start reading in a while. I am enjoying the book very much because it's actually interesting. To be honest, I thought it was going to be boring, but I was wrong. It's interesting, and I can already tell it's going to improve my communication skills. I better get to my reading so that I don't have to do that tomorrow and Sunday. I'll blog some more later. Enjoy!! :)
