Lack of Sleep

I know it's been forever since I've written a blog, and unfortunately it's going to be short.  I haven't gotten much sleep these past few days and can't really focus on writing this.

Overall, I had fun in Nashville.  There was some drama at one point, but it was thankfully fixed and everything was better.  It was very tiring though especially since I had to get up at five in the morning.


We just got home from my grandma's house.  Some of our family from Georgia is visiting.  Some family from Florida is coming up too. They're supposed to be here today, but they got stuck in traffic and weren't there  when we left.  We'll have to see them some other day before they leave.


I went to see The Last Song movie with my sister and her friend yesterday.  I loved it!  The whole cast was amazing!  I thought the boy who did Jonah was amazing!  You should definitely go see it!


I finished Paper Towns by John Green earlier today.  I thought it was an amazing book.  I definitely recomend it.  It's different from anything I've ever read before (so are his other books), but I really enjoyed it.


I started reading Keeping the Moon by Sarah Dessen earlier today.  It's good so far but kind of slow.

Baa

We took notes about the Cold War in world history today, and I spent all of art trying to find a "master" painting that I could draw.  The problem is, I suck at drawing and can't possible draw anything that a famous painter has painted.

In personal finance, we talked more about credit.  In Spanish, we reviewed for the test we have tomorrow.  I feel like I know everything pretty well, but I say that a lot and then always to horrible on the tests.  We'll see how that goes.

We had a pop quiz in English today, and then we read part of a novel we're reading.  At one point, we were going over vocab, and something pretty funny happened.  Mrs. Meyer (the teacher) asked, "Hunter, can you tell me the answers to 4, 5, and 6 please."  Hunter tells her that the answers are B, A, A.  Mrs. Meyer asks, "Otherwise known as...?"  She meant for him to say the word that the letter was in front off, but a girl in class imitated a sheep and said "Baa!" really loud.  The whole entire class and Mrs. Meyer started laughing really hard.  It was hilarious!

I read some more of Paper Towns today.  I really love it so far. *SPOILERS* I love all the clues that Margo left behind.

I won't post a blog tomorrow.  I have to work, and I want to go as bed as soon as I get home because I have to e at school at six in the morning on Thursday.  I'm going on the character trip that my school has every year.  I  get to go because I have perfect attendance and have "shown good character."  We're going to Nashville!  I'm excited!  We get out of school the entire day.  We leave at six in the morning, and we'll get back anywhere from 6:30 to 7:00 that evening.  I'll try to post a blog when I get home from that.

First Day Back After Spring Break

On Easter Sunday,  I got a bunch of candy, clothes, the wolfpack poster that I actually picked out, and the Twilight in Forks DVD.

I'm so excited that I finally got the Twilight in Forks DVD!  I watched it yesterday and loved it.  If you're a Twilight fan, and are interested in learning more about Forks and La Push, then I definitely recommend you get it.

My grandma came over for lunch.  Other then that, pretty much all I did was go to work.

Today was the first day back at school after spring break.  It went pretty well.  I felt really weird waking up this morning and going to school.  It felt like the break had lasted a lot longer than a week, but after my first class, it felt normal again.

In world history, we just worked on some worksheets.  In art, we took notes on some artist whose name I can't remember.

In personal resource management, we learned about credit cards, and how to use one wisely (or not at all).

In Spanish, we reviewed some, and then learned some more about pronouns.

In English, we read some of both of the novels we're reading, went over our DLP's (daily language practices), and went over our new vocab words.  That's the only class I got homework in.

I'm on chapter one of part two of Paper Towns by John Green.  I really, really like it so far.

That's pretty much all that happened today.  Only a little more than seven weeks until school's out for the summer!

I Love Easter

I haven't really done much these past two day.

I went to church both yesterday and today for Good Friday and the Easter Vigil.  I love the  Holy Week and Easter masses so much.  I may go again for Easter tomorrow.

I had to work today, but basically nothing happened there.  It went by surprisingly fast though.  I have to work tomorrow too.

I finished Along for the Ride by Sarah Dessen.  I loved it!  I highly recomend it.  I'm now reading If I Loved You, I Would Tell You This by Robin Black.  It's a collection of short stories.  I like it so far, but it's not great.

I watched episode 50 of Naruto earlier today.  It was a good episode.  *SPOILERS*  I feel so bad that Rock Lee lost.  I can't wait to watch the next episode.

I hope you all have a good Easter tomorrow!  I can't wait to finally be able to chew gum again!

Reunion

I didn't do much yesterday except read fanfiction and then go to work.

There was one little funny moment at work.  For those who don't know, before I went to high school, I used to go to this really small Catholic school.  There were only twelve of us in the class when we graduated 8th grade.  Anyway, so one of the girls from my class that school named Alyssa came in with her boyfriend to tan.  While she was tanning, a boy that was also in our class there named David came in, and he had to wait for there to be an open bed.  So, as Alyssa was leaving, she says, "Bye Haley.  Bye David.  It's like a [insert school name here] reunion!"  The way she said it was hilarious.  Alyssa can be a very amusing person (and if she ever happens to read this, I mean that in a good way).

Two annoying boys from school came in right before closing, and really annoyed me though.  I twittered a bunch about it last night, but I don't really want to go into it here.  I'll just start ranting about how much they both annoy me, and no one wants to read that.

I didn't really do much today either.  We just got back from Holy Thursday mass, and that's about all I did today.

I watched episode 49 of Naruto.  It was a really good episode.  I can't wait to see if Gaara or Lee wins.

I'm on chapter twelve of Along for the Ride.  I stayed up until 3 AM reading it.  I love it!  Of course, Sarah Dessen is one of my favorite writers.  I'm not a huge fan of her first two books, but other than that I've loved every one that I've read.

That's pretty much all I did yesterday and today.

Oh, I wanted to mention that I'm super excited for the novella that Stephenie Meyer has coming out.  I kind of would have prefered a different character's point of view, but I'm definitely reading it anyway.  They're apparently also working on The Host movie.  I'm really excited about that because The Host is my favorite thing Stephenie has written (yes, it beats Twilight).
