My history teacher just loaded me with homework for the three day weekend! Oh, yay.
Also, I have to start studying like crazy for finals and my second go at the SAT. Even better.
It surprises me that so many senior girls in my school are already having pregnancy scares. I've heard of three in the past two months. Wow. We're taking bets on who walks down the asile pregnant. It started after homecoming, and then you can change your mind after prom. The betting should end around the middle of May. I know it sounds mean, but jeez. What are small towm people to do?
Also, tomorrow is my Bio. Dad, Bill's Birthday! Happy B-Day!
Have a good three-day weekend!

So today is the 1 month anniversary for me and my German! I'm happy, but I'm sad, too. Today is also the last day that I will see him for five months! I'll probably see him in June...
I okayed going to the airport with my Mom, but Maggie (the host mom) said 'No.' She thinks it's a bad idea. Maybe, but at least I'll have another chance to see him! So yeah. I'm prett sad.
We had a great 3-day weekend together, at least. The pictures turned out great. I'm going to try and post some @ Moonfantasy, if I can get them on a disc!
So, that's my day so far. Wish me luck! I have to cheer tonight as well, so we won't have a lot of time to say goodbye.

Hello all. It has definatly been an interseting weekend! Stefan finally called me! Yay! I can go over there for sure. My Grandpa will bring me my Social Security Card and Birth certificate by next weekend (I need them to apply for a passport)! I'll be apllying around March 10th, so I should have it by the end of March! I'm really excited! This will be the trip of a life time!
So to Stefan- Ich liebe Dich! I'll sehen Sie im Juni. Ich vermisse die Schokolade, aber ich vermisse Sie mehr! I'm not smart, I just used bable fish! LOL.
Also, I just put up a new website! check it out!
AAC is coming up! I'll have it up next week at the latest! Love to you all! Thanks for the reviews!

I finally updated AAC! It's kinda a short chapter, but it's the best i can manage for t he moment. I'm no longer in computer apps. so it's going to be longer before I update! Sorry! I'll do my best to keep writing!
I'm settling well into my new classes, I think! The only classes that are the same are English and Senior Gov. Even Senior Gov. got moved to a diffeent period, though.
Love to you all! Enjoy the new chapter and have a great day!

As of January 31st, 2007, I have been accpeted to (and will be attending) Jamestown College in North Dakota! I am so excited! I sent in the Housing Application form yesterday! I should be informed soon as to whether they recieved my money or not!
I am aiming to go for a Communication Major/Music Minor. If I go towards the Media track of Coomunications, then I'll get to take Public Relations classes. I'm so excited!
My Grandpa has brought me my Social Security Card and Birth Certificate. Eventually I will be applying to Social Security for My name change (My last name USED to be Gervais. If I had any say, it still would be!).
Also, I need some idea's for AAC! I'm willing to take ALMOST anything into consideration! Thanks!

Wow. It's been awhile since I've said anything here! Sorry. I am working on updating AAC, and it should be up before 11:00 am today! I've just been so busy!
I joined the track team, I made it to state in FCCLA, I met my new step mom, who is due to have a baby in October, My dad and her are actually moving back here in May, I should meet half the family that thinks I shouldn't exist at a reception on the 30th of June, and finally...I've been working on my senior presentation like crazy! Those are kinda a requirement to graduate, so I've had to really crack down!
I applied for a Leadership prgram at Jamestown, and if I get in, I will recieve a Leadership Minor! only 30/300 frashmen will get in. Keep your fingers crossed for me!
I should be applying for a passport soon, but now I have to find a way to raise money to go to Germany for a month and not three...something's up with Stefan's parents. It's not a problem, but I'm not sure I can get the money.
That's about it for now!

Hello! I have some great news! I was accepted into the Character in Leadership program! Upon my visit to Jamestown, I immeadiatly fell in love with it! I can't wait to be attending there in the fall, and I have a Choir participation scholarship waiting for me! Yay!
Prom is fast approaching on the 28th of this month, and I am excited to finally be at my senior prom! I only have 29 school days left before graduation!
Alas, I will not be applying for a passport, and I will not be taking a trip this summer. I have a lot to do here before attending college, and I cannot afford to go. I haven't told the German yet, but we'll have to see how he takes it. I haven't talked to him for almost two weeks.
I hope to have an AAC update soon, and I will be around for awhile longer! Thanks and so long!

Hey All!
I have offically broken up with the German. He has not replied much towards it, but I believe he took it well. I tried to be as nice/firm as I could be.
Prom is on saturday. I have my Nail appointment at 4:30 on Friday, and hair appointment at 5:00 on Saturday. I'm going with a really close freinds of mine, and we are going to Applebee's for dinner! Yay! I love that place.
AAC is taking awhile because I have no time, but a new poem will be up before this afternoon.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO TYKA KEENAN!
Prom went pretty good. Had a little incident, but I'm over it. Let's just say not all men are Boyfriend Material! LOL. It was the best dance that I've been to, other than that!
Sorry I didn't get that peom up! I've been too busy to do much here! TTYL!

Hey everyone! I am looking very hard for that poem, becuase I love how it turned out and I want to share it!
The track season is finally over, and so are my senior presentations! This is my last monday of high school, and I'm pumped! Yay!
I have a play coming up on the 4th of June (A Disney Thon), which happens to be 2 days after graduation! I'm okay with that, though, since there is onky one night performance.

So, as much as I tried and tried, I could not find that poem. Instead, I wrote another one with the same first verse, and kind of the same body and conclusion. I hope that you enjoy it! I called it "Sympathy" and I hope you enjoy it!
One more day of finals (tomorrow) and then I am done! I'll just have the senior trip, decorations on Friday, and then SATURDAY...the best day of my life when I graduate from HS and I am done with all the drama and am off to North Dakota!
Thanks for all of your support. I'll check in occasionally over the summer, but other that that, see you next fall! LOVE YOU ALL!

Guess what! Someone did indeed Graduate 3 months pregnant! I won a bet! I feel a little bad, but We all knew it would happen.
I have also moved out of my house (I left on the 18th) and I am feeling so much better since I did! I'm really enjoying myself a lot.
Graduation went well, I just have to worry about my Dad's Reception on Saturdy where I will meet the family I never met over 18 years!
I'll check in later! Love to you all...
