I'm a chronic hypochondriac. Haven't actually been diagnosed with it, but I don't need a doctor to tell me that I worry a super extra amount. So, I've been worried about cancers, and whatnot. I'd finally gotten over that, cause I've got a doctor's appointment (an actualy WOMEN'S doctor *sad face*) scheduled and I figured there's nothing I can do about that. So I was good. And what has to come along? The swine flu. Yeah. I'm horrified by it now. Thank goodness it isn't in Georgia yet, and maybe no one in America will start dying from it (though it's sort of inevitable). Once that happens I'm truly going to start freaking out.

But anyway, trying to keep my mind off of that. So let's see...

Alright, nearly done with my Heron painting. :D It's been forever. I finally painted the feather two weekends ago, so now I just have to do so pencil stuff, and spruce it up a bit, and I should be done. FINALLY!

College Pre-Calculus is over. Got a B in there. That was heartbreaking, but I guess I should have studied and paid attention a little more. Mom says as long as I learned something and will know how to do better than next time, then it's fine.

Latin is almost over. I should be doing that right now, but it's so boring. I'm a week behind, and it all has to be done by next week. :\ Then we have the final next Wednesday and Thursday, and that's it. Score.

The rest of school is being dumb. Econ and Bio especially. I assume I'll end up with B's in those classes. Suck. At least it's less than three weeks to go.

Oh, the highlight of these past few weeks... we had festival this past weekend in Chatanooga. I thought we did well, and we got all superiors, though Aaron and Mr. Kirkland weren't terribly pleased. But it was my best performance ever, cause I made only like, one mistake, and it wasn't noticable. So, that was cool... but then at the awards thing, they start calling out awards for soloists. I was waiting for Anna Catherine and Taylor Janney to get their awards, cause they did awesome, and when they called them, they also called me and Sarah. I was like, "WHAT?" And then I had to go up there on the stage in the ugly band dress, but I was happy. That'll help with my getting into the redcoats, I hope (and yes, I've decided to try out).

Let's see... prom next Friday. Which is also my birthday. The next day is my redcoat audition. these next few weeks are going to be so busy. Dang this end of year stuff, especially being senior year and all.

Oh, and spring drumline auditions were today at the middle school. I stayed to watch, and it made me really sad to not be playing with them. But I think a lot of the new kids would get on my nerves. The pit it going to be some crazy number of 17 kids, and it's pretty much all freshman, 8th graders, and Sarah. So, maybe it's good that I'm leaving. *shrug*

And.... I think that's all. Ugh. Latin.

My stupid computer has yet another virus, says the Geek Squad, when we just got it fixed a month or so ago for having a virus. Sigh. At least I have this laptop, though it is sort of a pain carrying it back and forth between houses. As long as I can still get everything off my computer before it completely dies then I guess I'll be... ok... about saying goodbye to the computer itself. Though it's sort of sad.

Anyway... should I join the UGA redcoat marching band (or audition at least, cause I'm not sure if I'd make it)? I know I'm really going to miss band after I graduate, but I'm not sure if it's the people or the playing. I assume I'll miss both... so, I still want to be able to play mallets somehow, and the only way would be to be in the marching band. I hope I'm not too late for filling n the application. I guess I'll try asking some friends who are in the Redcoats now, and see what they say.

I like how mom is telling everyone about my computer having a virus. And how she's filling out the financial aide crap for my college. Stupid teacher pay cuts.

I'm back at mom's house and it's so nice. It just feels so much more familiar and comfortable. And it has Scout. ^_^

Mom brought me back this cool, really fancy pants jacket from Germany (and scarf to match). It looks like a North Face, but the catch is, it's not! Because I like flaunting to all those preppy North Face wearers that I can buy stuff just as good (actually better) as theirs. And it's cooler! A++ The company is called Jack Wolfskin (score) and their logo is a wolf pawprint (double score!). So it's awesome.

And we're having Chinese soon I believe. Which is good, cause it actually sounds really good right now. Now for some Latin.

I still haven't done my Latin work for this week. Or even some of it from last week. :(

I suck, so much.

and I miss mom. I wish Germany wasn't worth being gone a week.

My stomach is growling at me. Not an, "I'm hungry, you boob." growl. Instead, it's one of those, "OH, GOOD HEAVENS WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME, YOU BOOB!" growls. Yes. And don't deny the fact that you don't know what kind of growl I'm talking about. I'm sure everyone's had them.

And it's mainly got to do with Nana. Yeah, she (Kennon's mom) is here to help out and stuff since Kennon's currently in the hospital with the baby (she gets released at midnight tonight.... I'd be mad about that if I were her). Normally, I feel really awkward around Nana, but lately I've been fine. Which s really nice, since it's just been me, her, and Abby all day. So, she makes supper, and I go to sit down with them, and we eat, and it's nice. I have a helping of everything, then I go back for a little more chicken and green beans. When I'm sitting back down I'm thinking about how there's very few green beans left, so I should finish them up. So, I get up and get them, and when I'm sitting down I'm thinking, Oh, dang, there's only one piece of chicken left as well..." But I didn't really want it. I hoped someone else would go get it, but I could tell abby wasn't going to eat anymore, and Nana was putting her plate in the dishwasher. So, I just tried to ignore it. But of course, Nana asks if I want it. I couldn't say no, cause I do agree that it would have been dumb of her to put one piece of chicken in the fridge. And now I'm paying for it.

This was a really, super useless journal...

Oh, Nana also asked why me and Abby were being so quiet, and jokingly asked, "Don't y'all talk to each other?" I'm stupid, so I just blurted out, "No." That was awkward.

 

So, it's Valentine's Day and I've been watching t.v. and movie all day. It's really great. I got up, and watched this movie called, "The Perfect Man." It had hillary duff in it, but there was also a really cute boy, and it was good. Then, I watched The Angry Beavers. And now I'm watching Invader Zim. :) Such good shows whcih need to show more. and later I'm supposedly going to see He's Just not That Into You. Yay for romance comedies!

And no, I don't have a Valentine. I'm cool with it though. Actually... I'm completely alone right now (except Patches...). I was at mom's, but she and David left for Germany, and they took Scout to the vet, so I was alone there. and now I'm at dad's, with no one home. And that's because... the rest are at the hospital. If I haven't said in some post before, Kennon was pregnant. Yes. A girl. Anne-Belle, if that's how you spell it. It was born yesterday, Friday the 13th. A luck would have it, they found last night that it has heart problems. So, I don't know what's going on. Dad wants me to go, but he told me to go home first.... so I don't know if I'm ever going to go. I'd really rather not. I hate hospitals, and I dislike babies. Putting them together is not fun. Besides, hospitals make me feel awkward and I don't feel comfortable standing around people in hospitals.... especially if they've just had a baby.... so.... maybe I'll update y'all on that later.

Have a happy Valentine's Day!

Haha, not much is going on, just felt like I needed to post. It was an early release day and Monday we don't have school (thank you Martin Luther King!) so I get a long weekend.

I was almost late to college class today though. It was terrifying. By the time I got in the classroom I was breathing so hard. But Matthew was later than me, so meh. Not only do I have Matthew Thomas in there now, but Jessica Cooper showed up in there today too. It's cool. And easy.

Oh, and in Biology today we had to "randomly mate" with people to see some stuff about alleles and whatnot. She would tell us to go ahead, and we would walk around the classroom asking people, "You want to mate?" It made me really want to say that to people in the hallway. I mostly mated with Ava, but I mated with Eric, Tommy, and Taylor multiple times as well. Tommy did a good job making it awkward cause instead of just saying, "You want to mate?" he was like, "You want to have sexual intercourse?" lol Good times.

Going to a hockey game and painting the Indoor Drumline mat tomorrow. That should be fun. Maybe.
