First Post in 2005!!

Wow. Another year gone by. Another year starting fresh. Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I actually did on Jan 1 but I hit the publish button without realizing my internet connection had died. So I lost all I had written. The end of my vacation was awesome. The beginning of school was ok. I guess.

Here's the week in review:

1st per practical arts general: nothing new. Still Dellio's TA. I am still maintaining a steady relationship with the copy machine. Good times.

2nd per English: to my relief we've wasted the entire week watching Catch-22, the worst movie on God's green and blue earth. I swear! The worst part is that we can't fast forward so we have to watch the commercials. But it's better than work. So I'm happy. But then again I'm not - made two "B"s - semester average: "B".

3rd/4th per calc: fun fun fun. Woo! Learning new stuff. Moving way too fast. I went up to the board. :-( She also made me read 5 paragraphs. I hate reading aloud. I'm a bad reader/speaker. I actually sort of in a sick way enjoy what we are doing now. It's refreshing to actually have a class that is my level where I'm challenged.

5th per band: so far ok. I really enjoyed sightreading. Dell gave a truly moving speech the first day back that made me excited for a short period of time. My enthusiasm has since died down and now I'm good. Some students from LSU came in one day and played with us. I had a hot guy next to me. Just my luck. Too bad I didn't get his number. Jazz band went well. I'm really excited about our concert. It's really going to rock. Or at least I am. We have a lot of new music. And sometimes my part is ridiculously hard, but the challenge is welcomed whole heartedly. We've had a lot of news crews visit us recently. And I was on TV! WOO! Lol. More reporters and cameras are on the way. We've been having a lot of after school and weekend practices lately and they aren't stopping anytime soon. I'm such a band geek. I need to get a life.

6th per sociology: awesome! Yay for a new class with a super cool teacher! I'm liking it so far. Mrs. Whitworth seems to really know what she's doing and it's impressive. I don't really know anyone in that class though. So that sucked. The name game sucked too. It's so funny how easily and often we go off onto different tangents. Someone mentioned fat Texicans and then we spent a half hour talking about German beer. It's really quite entertaining.

7th per stats: stats is stats. Supposedly we are moving faster now, so maybe the boredom will no longer prevail. Nothing's changed. I would like a change. Don't ask me what. I guess one thing has: new books! Sweetness! My old book was Biren's so it was practically new. Aww now I miss Biren. F him lol. I like my new book. I think. Why does Curtis insist on giving us a ton of problems, splitting them up, and making them due on separate dates? Is she aware I don't do deadlines well? This is going to kill me because I won't remember. Thank you Lord (or rather Curtis) for only making them worth 7.5%. Yay for yet another sucky stat project!

So one week down, a ton more to go. I hope this year doesn't fly by too fast. I would like to slow down a tad and enjoy my last few months as a senior. Why do I have to be so old God? Why?

So anyways softball tournament started today! We won our first game and then lost the second game by one point. The first team we played was really really good. They won their first game 19-1. I'm glad I didn't know before we played them because I would have freaked. I did pretty well overall. I think I only missed one throw and never got tagged or thrown out. I made some great catches and hits. One triple. Got on base everytime. Scored three or four times. What an awesome start to the season! I can't wait for our next game Tuesday night! This is Marcy the love bug signing out.
