school started!

hey ya'll! i know i know.. it's been a while. i bet you're saying to yourself.. "where is that crazy girl? did she dropped off the face of the earth??" well the answer is NO! i am still alive and well.. thank you very much. and the truth is, there is a lot to catch up on. but we shall start with school. =)

crazy as it sounds.. i love school. i say i don't, but that is a total and complete lie. i love the social atmosphere, the learning, my teachers, even the homework. (ok.. that might be a bit of an exaggeration!) the point is, i have been blessed with the opportunity to go to a public school to learn, and that is not something i am not willing to take for granted. there are kids in other countries that would give all they own just to get an education. well.. i love getting that education. i' m going to use it to make the world a better place.

now that i've completed my soap-box for the day.. i am a sophomore in high school. this tri i'm taking spanish, honors english, honors biology, algebra II, and seminary. it's challenging, and there's a lot of work, but it's fun. the kids in my classes are fantastic! i just finished being on the cross-country team, something i've taken a vow never to do again. (no offense to all you "fit" people.. but running is for crazy people). our football team is officially out of the running for state championships.. and that's a real bummer. the whole school has been depressed for a week. i'm on the school newspaper staff, where me and my partner in crime, lacie, are writing a hard-core expose' on the recent drop in gas prices. just kidding.. it'll probably be pretty juvinille stuff. =) but that's ok.. as long as i'm not editor.. i love it!

so.. that's pretty much my school-related life thus far. i mean, i left some things out. i don't want to BORE you to death! but i hope all is well for my millions of fans... (haha... jk.kate, i love you!) have a wonderful election day! hope they pick the right guy!
