My next few days in a nutshell (Day 22)

I don’t have to go to school today and tomorrow. :)
Well, technically I am going to school because they’re both school events.
But still, I don’t have to go to organized school.
And before I go into anything else I would just like to state that today is awesome because
1. My old microphone works on the computer (as Sarah helped me find out last night, before my computer crashed)
2. I downloaded Lauren’s new album on iTunes before I went to school, so I’ve been listening to it all day and I think it’s really good.
3. My Spanish teacher didn’t show up in class today, so I basically got an hour to talk to my friends and play the game I am about to mention.
4. I took an idea from a discussion on here, from Kaiti, (Outrageous Lies) and got my friends in on it, only instead of online we did it with a notebook. It’s insanely fun and I recommend it to anybody, it doesn’t take a lot of time and (since I won’t be with my friends tomorrow) I am really looking forward to seeing what they come up with when I get back.

Now that that’s done, onto the furture.

Tomorrow I will be attending an achedemic compitition for my school at Virginia College. There are six of us going, Brittany (senior) and I will be doing the english portion, which means writing an essay on whatever topic they give us - So tonight I will be brushing up on my essay skills - Then my friend Sammy (sophmore) and her boyfriend Jacob (sophmore) will be doing the math portion of the assesment. What’s up with all of the sophmores, I mean seriously. And no Jrs. I don’t understand the logic but whatever.
Last, my drummer buddy Grant (senior) and our foreign exchange student Matilda (senior) will be doing the arts portion.

It should be quite entertaining because I think I’m going to get a lot of reading done. And, also, I’m hoping I can do well on this essay thing. I’m kind of nervous; nothing major but I mean I haven’t written an essay since the end of ninth grade, so I’m a little out of practice. And even that essay wasn’t my best work. I basically rambled a lot. It was quite sad.

But whatever, it gets me out of school.

Friday I will be a little more at ease. This is the day we go to Virginia (that school basically hosts everything) for the band compition. I love band compititions because I get out of school, play the tamborine in one of the songs, then basically sit around and talk with my friends for the rest of the day without the interuption of class. (I lucked out on my directors picks this year, we weren’t doing anything where I played the snare, bass, or timpani. I love being hands off)

So that should be fun. There is a downside, however. I am missing the first day of the horse-expo. Which basically means I’m missing a whole day of running around with friends I NEVER see, swimming in the hotel pool, eating pizza, and trying on cowboy hats.

This really bums me out. I want more days out of school. I mean I hate to miss the experience and having to catch up sucks, but it is SO worth it.

Anyday I don’t have to go to spanish is a friend-o-mine.

Well, that’s my day, and the reason why I will be auto adding blogs this weekend, so if I don’t comment on yours it’s because I won’t be near a computer. You’ll just have to make it til Monday without me :(
