So, I have the option to donate blood for the first time today! I really want to donate blood, but I hate needles. And I have my period… Does that affect anything, are they going to tell me that I can’t donate now?!
Am I going to pass out during or after donating? Ahh, I think I am way over thinking this whole thing. Someone talk me out of being so nervous please!
I am the type of girl that would rather stay on the couch at my house and watch Netflix than go out and meet new people. Always afraid of being hurt in the long run, rather than excited to make some life long friends. Being in the Upward Bound club at my school, all rising seniors are required to go this summer Program at Penn State. I immediately did not want to go. Hanging out with a bunch of people that I barely knew for six weeks, no thanks.
My mom finally convinced me to try it out, Maybe I would end up to like it in the end. Of course, once again, my mother was right! There is only one week left, and I do not want this to end. I have made so many new friends already. I also met a really nice boy that turned out to like me back, That’s right out of this whole experience, I even got a new boyfriend.
Classes four times a week, barely any sleep, and a bunch of people that I did not know none of this sounded fun too me. I was definitely proven wrong! I absolutely love it here. Today, I go home for the weekend and get to relax before coming back for the last week. The last week consists of college tours, a blood drive, and even a trip to Pittsburgh.
I am beyond proud of myself for getting my butt up off of the couch and trying something new for a change. I earned some great friends and even a great boyfriend from all the torturous events that we went through.
The next time that you have the option to meet with a large group of people for how ever long, Take it! You never know what might come from the experience no matter how torturous the experience may seem at first.
So, this past week in school was spirit week. I don’t normally get all into spirit week. Don’t get me wrong I always participate, but I don’t normally get all into it.
This year was a little different. I saw crazy hair day and instantly got pumped! I was beyond excited. To make it even better, I had no Idea why I was so excited over making myself look like a complete fool. But I was.
I got on Pinterest and really did some searching until I found it. The perfect hair for crazy hair day….
Yeah, that hair style right there… Won first place!!!!!!!! Haha! I am going to be in the year book looking that good. :). One can only imagine how awesome I am.
Okay, my one friend has always been watching anime. I never knew how amazing it really was until I started to watch Fullmetal Alchemist. I absolutely love the plot and, of course, the characters. I now have a huge list of must watch anime and much read manga. I never thought that they would be so good, but they absolutely are.
Anybody out there watch anime or read manga and have any suggestions? I am definitely open to all suggestions. To be honest I am super siked to hear some of the suggestions.
Oh… And if anybody else absolutely loves fullmetal Alchemist, please comment your favorite episode!! 🙂 Thanks!
So, two Saturdays ago I got hit by a baseball right off the bat. It bruised but that’s about it. That next Monday, I hit it ever so slightly off of the railing on the stairs at school. That was when the pain really started.
I couldn’t bend my wrist nor could I straighten or bend my arm. I went to the school nurse and they refused to do anything about it because it was an “outside of school” injury. I eventually went to get x-rays. Luckily, it wasn’t broken. It is a deep muscle/tissue bruising.
It hurts so badly, even today. Everyday since I hurt it, my dad tells me I am faking it and all this other good stuff. He even refuses to take me to the doctors for my follow up appointment. Ugh! I just wish the pain would go away.
Let’s just get this straight… I am absolutely terrible! Okay… Maybe not absolutely terrible, but close to it.
This year I am taking a public speaking class. We have done a total of three speeches, and I have a 82%. Does that help picture how bad I am?
This past speech, which I did on Auschwitz, was recorded by my teacher an posted privately on YouTube. I just watched it and realized that I wasn’t actually as bad as I thought I was during that speech. I am hoping that knowing this will help boost my confidence for my future speeches.
Does anybody have any tips to help over come my fear? And is anybody interested in seeing the terrible video haha.? Random picture time!!! vvvvvvv
So, my uncle… Going through a divorce is dating my best friends mom. As awkward as it may sound…. It’s pretty awesome. We, my two cousins, my best friend,her sister, my sister, and I have all hung out all weekend for almost a month straight.
It gives me something to look forward to each and every week. It’s just what I need.
Last weekend we played laser tag before going to Walmart at ten O clock. For those of you who have been to Walmart late at night, you know it’s pretty empty. It’s right before the real weirdos come out. We had a blast just completely messing around.
Has anybody else ever just went picture crazy at Walmart?
Most people think that their senior year is going to be the hardest year they are going to have. My junior year is probably just as difficult as what most senior years are like. I am taking Latin online, advanced world cultures, of course gym and health, calculus, chemistry two, public speaking, and honors English. That’s a lot of homework and a lot of stress. My grades are worse this year than they ever have been.
That is the main reason I have not blogged in forever. I miss it, and I am back to stay. For good!! :).
So, by my last post most of you know I was sick, well I still have whatever it was in a different way now though. Just when it felt like it was finally going away, it would come back in some way.
Right now I have the worst cold ever with a nice fever and a side of allergies! I have been so miserable and gross feeling.
School has also been crazy busy. Today is the first day since the first day of school that I haven’t had any homework :). Crazy!!! I know right!
Well I am back and will definitely be posting daily once again. :).
I laid down to go to sleep at 9:30 and it’s now 2:13. Not fun! When I woke up yesterday morning, I had an upset stomach and a really bad headache. I don’t like missing school, so I put on sweatpants and a sweatshirt and headed to school. By third period I was so sick, I thought I was going to be sick.
I asked to go to the nurse, and I then find out I have a fever of 101.1 (my favorite radio station, but that’s beside the point.) and have to go home. I get home at 9:20 in the morning and was in bed until around fourish. I was out of bed long enough to shower and eat before going right back to bed.
I felt slightly better and was excited that I could go back to school tomorrow. Now I’m lying here feeling ten times worse than I was yesterday… On top of an upset stomach and head ache, I have an ear ache and achey bones.
I’m in so much pain it’s crazy! I just want to sleep. This probably means no school again later today… Yay. Not!
This absolutely stinks!!!! Ugh!
Maybe if you understood?
