Tennis season is in 17 days! I can not contain my excitement! I've been waiting since December for February 15! The tennis team is about to kick some butt this year, just like last year!
Leader prep made me feel even worse than what I am going through right now. I know this is a big deal but some people that are going through probably feel the same way I did. Also don't worry about I have help and I am doing better than I was a week a go. My friday is my horrible, thank you Leader Prep
I watched as the cave floor was once again stained red drop by drop by the blood of my comrades. Sitting helplessly as as he ripped my best man in half, savoring the taste of his internals in his tongue. The cyclops licked my men’s blood off his lips and smiled at us like this were no more than a friendly dinner amongst chums. His demonic eye slanted sideways to his club then back to us, possibly considering to kill us now and get it over with, or sending us a message to expect our doom and cower before him. He towered to his full height and yanked his club from the wooden table. Stalking over to us he drunkardly yanked his trousers up and glared at us for a moment and grunted, possibly considering taking a snack with him to his sheep pastures. Oh, how I wish he would have just compiled with the rules set by Zeus, then we would not be in this situation! My thoughts were paralyzed as the cyclops stomped closer and stumbled down to our level, sizing us up for the feast. I was beginning to become ill of constantly cowering in the corner from this gargantuan buffoon. As the cyclops gorged himself on another of my men, I suddenly found myself wishing that I had stayed home with my beautiful, gentle wife Penelope. I tried to shut off my senses to the scene playing out before me, but I could not silence the screams that rang in my ears, could not banish the smell of copper from my nostrils, and could not dispel the bright splashes of crimson that now blurred my vision. I wiped the blood from my eyes flicking it off my finger as if it were the most revolting thing in the world, which it was very close. Wait, that man... that man I had loved like my own son! This was the final strike, I refuse to let this go on any longer; but I cannot kill him now...I must wait and let this emotion simmer.
SO! Hoffery is back and ready for revenge! He finds Jofferey in his humble abode and waits patiently for morning to fight Jofferey in a brave and heroic battle.
Today we have an archery tournament at Bullitt East in Mt.Washington. I am very nervous though because yesterday I had an eye doctors appointment and couldn't go to practice. In about 3 weeks we have regionals. This is a really big thing because our team could make it to State. Last year we could have made it but didn't have enough people for a team. This year we have tripled our numbers and will make it. After States if we make it then we go to Worlds. This year Worlds might be in Hong Kong, China!!! I really hope we make it to at least States; Worlds would make it even better though.
It's been a full week of school and it's been incredibly tiring. After being out of school for two weeks and then being out for another because of snow, i'm not used to being in school anymore. Between school and all my extracurriculars, I'm exhausted. I'm so glad that it's Friday and I'm super pumped for the dance tomorrow. :)
Tonight I'm volunteering at the Bardstown Chamber of Commerce annual Chinese New Year party. I'll be serving the council members. On the plus side, I'll be fed. Then saturday is the formal and sunday is the super bowl. It'll be a busy weekend for me, but fun too.
Today in Leader Prep, we learned about suicide prevention. It made me a little uncomfortable because I've attempted multiple times, and it made me a little angry. They said that people that are suicidal are depressed. I honestly don't agree with that because I know some pretty perky people who are suicidal. The whole lesson was just very uncomfortable to me. I'm glad Mr. Morris taught it today though instead of Ms. Ahmadi because she wouldn't have made it all the way through and taken it seriously. I'm just... I don't know. My feels are all over the place...
I wonder when my therapist is gonna call me up...? o.O
Jan. is almost over and Feb. is soon. I think it's good that Feb. is almost here because that means we are getting closer to spring and GSA auditions. Once spring comes we will have our after school drama, choir concert and GSA auditions. Other then performing arts i'm excited for spring because my gymnastics season starts again. I also like spring because it is warmer and all the plants are bright and alive.
I honestly do not know what to write for free write Friday. I don't much care for free write Friday based upon the fact that I never know what to write about. That being said I enjoy the stories we get to hear that day but we usually get a prompt if we don't know what to write and today we did not get one. Within the seconds I had to write this, this is all I could come up with so this is what I'm writing for Free Write Friday.
You are wrong Tyler because Jeoffery never comes out of his cave since his son died. He wrapped himself in a cocoon of sadness inside of his cave, and he never leaves.
So I have a lot to do this weekend. I have an archery tournament tonight at six, then after I'm going up to Parkway to help with the Imagine Conference. Then from 8-2 on Saturday I will be up at Parkway helping with the Imagine Conference again. Then after I have to do my hair, nails, and makeup for the dance that night. Then the next day I have church then Youth Worship.
Leader prep made me feel werid today. I know this is a big deal but some people that are going through but I think it is a personal matter. I just want to go home and sleep not talk about people depression.
Someone needs to explain Tyler and Easton's conversation to me. I'm so glad it's Friday. I am very tired. Matball is the funnest game ever. P.E. is awesome. I have no idea what to write. I hate Leader Prep. The suicide prevention lesson today was a little weird. Jan ran to the man in the sand.
I am so glad that it is Friday. I really want a Typhoon slushy from Taco Bell but i know that my mom will make me pay for it and i'm not about that life. Tomorrow is my little cousins birthday and he is so excited for it as well. Sunday i am going to hang out with my boyfriend and his family to watch the super bowl. I wish my hands werent so cold :( it sucks, this scholar start is going to be everywhere and i dont care. I cant wait to get home and see my puppy maverick, he gets so excited when we get home and pees everywhere. its bad.
Some crazy things on my mind lately have been that I'll get to see Tim Tebow and Rich Froning have an interview and probably eventually turn into a sermon at Southeast Christian coming up in April. That's crazy for me because Tim Tebow is pretty much my role model while rich froning like my secondary role model. The fact that they'll both be in Kentucky in the same week gets me stoked. The fact that it'll be an interview and a sermon is just icing on the cake. Other than that that's all I got.
Today really started off kind of weird with leader prep. I thought it was more for college readiness but we really haven't discussed much on what college is like or even how to get into college, even though the topic is important I didn't think that was the point of the class. I am really glad it is Friday though. Everyone is really excited about the dance. I have seen so many people with spray tans and pictures of peoples dresses ,too bad i'm not going. Even though I do not want to, either way I have a game that day.
It's Friday and I'm ready for the weekend, the dance, and softball season which isn't until February but oh well... I wish we could use emoijis on this thing. I'll add that to the reasons why I don't exactly like chrome books, but it has spell check witch I would look so dumb without because I cant spell to save my life.
This week has been pretty good even though I am pretty tired today. I honestly want to go home and go to bed but instead I get to interact with people at Wendy's. I know when I get there everyone is going to freak out about my braces because they haven't seen them yet and I look really different, but even more positive I get paid. My birthday is in 3 months and I am still freaking out about it. I have an idea of what I am doing, but I am just completely psyched that I am going to be 16.
Earlier Mrs. Travis tried to get me in trouble for wearing a hoodie today. Then she realized it was a spirit day. I attempted to sign the justin bieber petition but I'm not sure if my signature went through. Our bonus question for our HAVPA test today was that we had to guess the number of signatures were on the petition. Right now the number is 223,327. I don't really care if he gets deported, I just wanted to sign a petition about something I actually knew about. I wonder if he got deported, they would stop playing his music on the radio.
This is probably my last week on my knee scooter, crap! I like rolling on it through the halls; it's a lot easier than using crutches. I really don't want to have to go back to crutches, they hurt my armpits so bad. The only good thing about leaving this scooter is the fact that it has the WORST turning ability.
My weekends going to be boring probably just sitting at home and sleeping,like always. like i cant wait until baseball season its so close, i cant wait to be honored as being a part of TNHS baseball's team. I hope can do great things but I know that if i'm going to be all that i can be I will have to try my hardest to be the best that I can be. OH also ive accomplished life because my high score on Flappy Bird is a 34 so my life is complete.
Do you ever get super paranoid for no reason? You know, when you're thinking about weird stuff and you have that "snap back to reality" (not an Eminem reference) moment when you look around and think, "Wow, I really hope no one in here can read minds." Then, you take a moment to study each persons face to make sure they aren't rocking the poker face because then you will know for sure that that person can read minds and you will have discovered their secret. Except now they know what you were thinking so they think you're super weird and then you try your best not to think of anything at all so you can over power them and they won't be able to read your mind but by thinking about not thinking about it, you are thinking about it. So you just give up because you're super exhausted and then you reassure yourself that no one in the room can read minds.
The Petition to revoke Justin Bieber's Green card and deport him back to Canada is already at 223,000 signatures. For a Petition to get reviewed by the Congress you must have at least 100,000 signatures. not only did Justin's reach that in an hour, but it is also doubled that. In all seriousness I don't think this plan will fall through although it is very hysterical. I don't necessarily hate the kid, it's just that I think he is using his fame (and by fame I mean his little obsessed middle school students) for the wrong reasons. If this does go through then I don't know where he will go because I highly doubt Canada will accept him back.
The Legend of General Hamilton goes as follows: General Hamilton was a strong and fierce man. He fought gallantly alongside his troops and had heart along with the passion to win. He lived a great life, fighting for what he believed in, but that one day was his demise. There was word in a camp not for from where Hamilton and his troops were posted that had heard of an attack that was to take place. They sent a pigeon that carried a note. The note was made to warn Hamilton about the attack. He was supposed to move his troops and get them to safety. The pigeon was faulty. It never did deliver that note. Word never reached Hamilton. The next day a foul smell seeped into the camp. There was no color that warned the troops of something being wrong, they merely thought that it was something from the river. All of a sudden soldiers started to drop. Nobody knew why. Hamilton tried to see sense. He checked the food and water supplies, hoping to stop the deaths around him. No one suspected that the death was all around them; in the air. An hour later Hamilton and his troops were on the ground and still.
So it's free write Friday, and I really have nothing that great to talk about. I'm going over to my dad's this weekend and i'll probably do nothing there. but I don't see my dad that much so i'm really excited to spend time with him, and catch up because I haven't been over there in about a month in a half, because I always have church events to go to, or something else popped up that I have to do. But at least i'm going over there this weekend!! Ready for this day to be over!
Tonight im going to a concert and Im really excited. There is going to be like 5 or 10 bands there but 3 of them are Skillet, Jamie Grace, and Third Day. It is a christian concert and they are really good. Im really excited because I going with my youth group. We went to Winter Jam 2 weekends ago and Maggie couldnt stay the whole time because she got sick but this week she isnt sick so its going to be awesome. But the only thing is Bruce is going with us and he might be a nazi. But it will be fun anyway, we will make it fun.
I am so pumped for this weekend: not only for the dance, but to hang out with all of my friends as well. It should be really fun! Wow! I just had a complete mind blank and suddenly I lost my train of thought on what I was going to write about. Wow. I had a really good idea to write about and then I lost it. It really frustrates me when it happens! I wish I had a prompt today so I could actually guide my thoughts. They are seriously everywhere today from homecoming to the formal tomorrow to my song analysis essay. I love music. Eric Church is so amazing. If there was a concert with Eric Church, Jason Aldean, Thomas Rhett, and Brantley Gilbert, I would be in heaven!
The warm cool breeze of the fall weather caught up to her as she was running- running from her family, running from her friends, and most of all, running from her mind. The oxygen felt heavy against her chest, more as if it was killing her instead of providing her air in order to breathe. Her baby hairs were getting stuck to the edge of her forehead, her hands were feeling clammy, and she allowed her feet to take her wherever they lead her.
In leader prep, it was really weird. I think it's good to talk about it so people can know when someone is thinking about these things but it also bothers me that some people don't think it's a big deal. It is always a big deal when someone wants to end their life and people should take it seriously. But on a different note, my sister is coming home to stay for 3 days on the 13th, 14th, and 15th of February and I get to spend time with her. It's been a year since I've really been able to spend time with her.
Her lips were the shape of rose petals, and the tint of June sunsets. Her teeth appeared in a off-white blur and tugged against her bottom lip in concentration. Eyes like the ocean washed up and over the computer screen. My own eyes like chocolate melted over her with interest, and when our gazes met it was a collision of color so bright I could have sworn sparks flew. It only lasted a second. She reminded me of thunder, crashing loud against my subconscious mind in a fearful familiarity.
This week has been so long and i'm so tired of this cold weather and i'm just ready for summer because then you won't have school and then you will be a whole lot warmer then during the winter.
Last night was the Thomas Nelson FFA Chapter Speaking contest. I was super nervous and I almost skipped out. I'm really glad I didn't. Basically I got to the school at 5:55 and went and sat down by Maria. Ms. Chapman handed out the envelopes with the three possible topics I could choose to do a speech on. I was in the small animal category and I ended up getting the topic I wanted from the get go: parasites in dogs, cats, and rabbits. This probably sounds like a gross topic but its the topic I knew the most about. I didn't have to waste any of the extremely short 20 minutes researching. I started writing immediately and ended up writing 6 full note cards. The small animal room was in Ms. Herberg's classroom. Two people went and then I volunteered so I could get it over with. I walked in to find five judges sitting at the front of the room. My first few words were a little shaky and I talk pretty fast so I was tripping over my words a little. I kept getting more and more confidence as I spoke. At the end I thanked them for their time. They stopped me before I walked out to give me some "constructive criticism". I didn't really know what to expect. They ended up giving me two tips: moving in a small diamond as I talk and try not to say the word "so" as much.Then they told me how good I was. Apparently I was better than I thought. I ended up getting second place. I'm really proud of myself for facing my fear of public speaking.
On Thursday night for FFA we had our Chapter Speaking Contest. I had been worrying about it all year and was finally ready to get it done. It ended up going over very well and I am very proud of myself for doing it. Never could I imagine myself speaking in front of judges. The dance was Saturday and it was fun. I feel like the past month has been really hectic and I am going to be glad to get a break, I love having things to do though.
Tennis season is in 17 days! I can not contain my excitement! I've been waiting since December for February 15! The tennis team is about to kick some butt this year, just like last year!
ReplyDeleteLeader prep made me feel even worse than what I am going through right now. I know this is a big deal but some people that are going through probably feel the same way I did. Also don't worry about I have help and I am doing better than I was a week a go. My friday is my horrible, thank you Leader Prep
ReplyDeleteI am the SAME. EXACT. WAY. *high five*
DeleteI watched as the cave floor was once again stained red drop by drop by the blood of my comrades. Sitting helplessly as as he ripped my best man in half, savoring the taste of his internals in his tongue. The cyclops licked my men’s blood off his lips and smiled at us like this were no more than a friendly dinner amongst chums. His demonic eye slanted sideways to his club then back to us, possibly considering to kill us now and get it over with, or sending us a message to expect our doom and cower before him. He towered to his full height and yanked his club from the wooden table. Stalking over to us he drunkardly yanked his trousers up and glared at us for a moment and grunted, possibly considering taking a snack with him to his sheep pastures. Oh, how I wish he would have just compiled with the rules set by Zeus, then we would not be in this situation! My thoughts were paralyzed as the cyclops stomped closer and stumbled down to our level, sizing us up for the feast. I was beginning to become ill of constantly cowering in the corner from this gargantuan buffoon. As the cyclops gorged himself on another of my men, I suddenly found myself wishing that I had stayed home with my beautiful, gentle wife Penelope. I tried to shut off my senses to the scene playing out before me, but I could not silence the screams that rang in my ears, could not banish the smell of copper from my nostrils, and could not dispel the bright splashes of crimson that now blurred my vision. I wiped the blood from my eyes flicking it off my finger as if it were the most revolting thing in the world, which it was very close. Wait, that man... that man I had loved like my own son! This was the final strike, I refuse to let this go on any longer; but I cannot kill him now...I must wait and let this emotion simmer.

But on a different note, my sister is coming home to stay for 3 days on the 13th, 14th, and 15th of February and I get to spend time with her. It's been a year since I've really been able to spend time with her.
ReplyDeleteHer lips were the shape of rose petals, and the tint of June sunsets. Her teeth appeared in a off-white blur and tugged against her bottom lip in concentration. Eyes like the ocean washed up and over the computer screen. My own eyes like chocolate melted over her with interest, and when our gazes met it was a collision of color so bright I could have sworn sparks flew. It only lasted a second. She reminded me of thunder, crashing loud against my subconscious mind in a fearful familiarity.
ReplyDeleteThis week has been so long and i'm so tired of this cold weather and i'm just ready for summer because then you won't have school and then you will be a whole lot warmer then during the winter.
ReplyDeleteLast night was the Thomas Nelson FFA Chapter Speaking contest. I was super nervous and I almost skipped out. I'm really glad I didn't. Basically I got to the school at 5:55 and went and sat down by Maria. Ms. Chapman handed out the envelopes with the three possible topics I could choose to do a speech on. I was in the small animal category and I ended up getting the topic I wanted from the get go: parasites in dogs, cats, and rabbits. This probably sounds like a gross topic but its the topic I knew the most about. I didn't have to waste any of the extremely short 20 minutes researching. I started writing immediately and ended up writing 6 full note cards. The small animal room was in Ms. Herberg's classroom. Two people went and then I volunteered so I could get it over with. I walked in to find five judges sitting at the front of the room. My first few words were a little shaky and I talk pretty fast so I was tripping over my words a little. I kept getting more and more confidence as I spoke. At the end I thanked them for their time. They stopped me before I walked out to give me some "constructive criticism". I didn't really know what to expect. They ended up giving me two tips: moving in a small diamond as I talk and try not to say the word "so" as much.Then they told me how good I was. Apparently I was better than I thought. I ended up getting second place. I'm really proud of myself for facing my fear of public speaking.
ReplyDeleteOn Thursday night for FFA we had our Chapter Speaking Contest. I had been worrying about it all year and was finally ready to get it done. It ended up going over very well and I am very proud of myself for doing it. Never could I imagine myself speaking in front of judges. The dance was Saturday and it was fun. I feel like the past month has been really hectic and I am going to be glad to get a break, I love having things to do though.
