morning!

back to school!!!! it went well!!!!

the college list...

inspired by kelli....created by me...top 4
1.Franciscan University of Steubenville
2.Notre Dame College-Cleveland
3.Lourdes College
4.Bowling Green State University


Dont wanna leave Ohio, but want to go and stay away in the dorms. But not be too far from home!!! I really would like a Catholic college. Especially FUS. I would REALLY like scholarships! Hopefully I will get offered some after taking the ACT hopefully in February of not then the next one!!! Not sending in scores right away this time tho....I would like a 30, then if I get one I will send them in.

Major in Early Childhood Education or Elementary Education(leaning towards former) not sure if I really want to minor. If I do it will either be Drama or Journalism. Or maybe an elective class or 2 in each, since most schools require a few elective classes here and there. Minors are more money. Money I need in the first place;-)!!!

It is a scary thought, college. In 2 and a half years I will be a graduate. In 3 years at this time I will probably be typing from a laptop in a dorm room from a college somewhere across the state. Or studying;-)

Its gonna be hard, I know. I have already cried at the thought of my few senior friends leaving. Man;-) And that wasnt even at the life night in May when they are saying goodbye....I will cry then even tho I still get to do YES and Steubie with them all LOL!!!


Merry Christmas Eve, will log on tomorrow hopefully once or twice and post my Christmas love!!! And Staurday or possible late Friday will being a loevely list of Gifts I got!!! (we still have Christmas things with uncle and aunt and cousins a few hours away on Friday, they cant travel because my aunts baby is due in 2 weeks!!!)

XOXOXOXOXOXO!!!

kelli???

I need info about the February ACT. First of all, the website is kinda not helpful and confusing. I need to register. I also need dates if you can please email me the info!!! I dont know if I really want to send this one to schools or not. If I get a score I want(I want a 30) I will send them afterwards, so if I dont they will never know....;-) but hey you wont have an issue.....miss I got a 30 taking the ACT as a freshman...;-)

To all others....
Merry Christmas! Will try and log on tomorrow to post my luv!!!

I GOT AN A!!!

IN MY PSEOP HISTORY CLASS! YAY!

soooo...

if jamie can come at all, she wont be here til early tomorrow afternoon, and that is if the roads are good from detroit to here! Please pray she can come we have not been able to see her since May!!!! And also pray for good weather so they do not cancel Lifeteen Family Christmas Shopping on Monday!!!

XOXO
ps I really need out of this house! havent left in 2 days due to weather! but tomorrow I must lector...eeep!

Also finals are done for college, I am praying I get an A in my PSEOP college history course!!! Must wait til Tuesday when grades are supposed to be submitted by the profs!!!

G'day, mates

Almost g'nite, but whatever. Today I didnt go anywhere. Didnt even put in my contacts! Or do makeup! But I did do school, watch a history video, watch TV, work on a history report, and talk to Bella. I am super sad there is no lifeteen until the 11th of January. But of course, we have shopping on Monday. That will be fun. Even though Jake and his sister Carliann cannot come probably. Jake came last year.....it was really funny. He didnt cut paper the right size and patched the gift part showing with a different color of paper. It was really cute, actually. But we are wrapping at my place this year after shopping at Target, eating pizza, and praying!!!! Yay! Fun! Then next month is the Right 2 Life March!!!!! SUPER YAY! I get to go this year! It will be great to stand up for something I really and truly support!!! With my friends! By bus! To DC! Even though we will only be in DC for about 8-9 hours, it will still be a great experience. We are going to the Holocaust Museum when we are there too. Oh and I am planning on typing a year in review for December 31st, so you all have that to look forward to while reading my mostly boring blog posts!!!XOXO

college, the not so distant reality

its true. I am a sophomore. Two years at this time I will be half done with my senior year. My friends who are seniors have already gotton into schools for the most part, most of them their first choice colleges. Most of them in Ohio, however, which makes me happy. Kind of. At the end of May we are having this thing at lifeteen, we are going to say goodbye to all the seniors. I know I will cry, because as I am typing this I am almost crying. Sheesh I am a softie;-) When I leave in a few years....amn it will be hard. I'll get my own year of lasts, like my senior friends have been through already, some of the lasts anyways. My best friend is a freshman so she will be a senior in high school the year I leave for college.....and it will kill me to leave her. Many of my other friends are all graduating in 2011 like me, but we are mostly headed across the state to different schools, some people even planning to go out of state. We are all going to world youth day in Spain the summer before....and it will be the last time we are all together before college. Some friends of mine are thinking about the same school I am, FUS, others med school, others Ohio Northern, others Mount Vernon, others undecided. Its gonna be hard. But its life. And on the really bright optimistic side, most of them are planning to come back here after college to get a job get married and have a family;-)

XOXO

Soooo

I am awake, waiting for Dad to bring home donuts! Mom and sister are upstairs sleeping, and brother is with Dad. I seriously Am getting addicted to the computer, I check my email about 6 times a day(it is always minimized, I just have to log in!) and my blog about 3 times. And I have to work on papers constantly, I am always on here applying for scholarships, the whole 9 yards!

PS who else is happy Bradford won the Heisman?

ISOHAPPY!

I got a 94% on that Vietnam paper! I am so excited!!!

time crunch

Yes, it is that time of year. College finals. Ugh. I have turned in my Vietnam War paper(hoping I did well on that, not so sure!), my assignment essay synopsis, and my extra credit paper. The only thing left for PSEOP online history is the dreaded final. If I dont get an A on this one, I get a B in the course probably, from my probably not good calculations;-)
I find myself with no time to watch TV anymore, the only thing I get to watch is my soap opera each weekday, but only if I DVR it so I can fast-forward thru commercials. I aslo eat and study while getting some sort of TV time in, like when my sister wants me to watch a movie with her. I eat my meals while watching videos on the computer for history, and instead of reading before bed I study. I have only read 4 books this quarter of school.
My only friend-time is Lifeteen each Sunday. I rarely get to talk on the phone with my friends anymore, because they are busy and so am I. I havent talked to Bella, my BFF, on the phone since Sunday night after Lifeteen for 7 minutes. I havent talked to Rachel, my other BFF, for a week and havent seen her in a while either, as she is not Catholic and does not attend my youth group.
The only thing I getto do regularly that I want to is email, simply becuase I am almost always on here typing up a paper and when the email notifier pops up, I can go look(the email is always minimized at the bottom of my screen!)and reply.
If only God gave us 25 hours in the day!!!

XOXO

the whole 9 yards, anything and everything

as i am typing this, my brothers guinea pig, puffy, is on my lap squealing. today we saw the christmas light show at skate world, with the lights coreographed to music on a local station, mostly trans siberian orchestra. my vietnam paper is now on the fifth page, and since i only need 4-5 pages, i am done excpet for finish-ups and a good closing sentence. i am geting nervous we wont have enough people for the lifeteen skit. but the youth leader is calling more people today and he may do a part as well. so we will have enough people i suppose. once again, happy st nicks day!!!

paper paper paper

must work on paper! i cant wait til the skit sunday for lifeteen EXCEPT we still need 4 more people!!! i <3 lifeteen!

tweedildee

ugh. i have a vietnam paper, 4 pages due on monday. how many pages do i have done? 2 and not quite a half. ok i suppose i am doing good. but it has to be perfect because if i dont get an A in this course it will drop my GPA like the last semester of my frosh year and i will cry. i cant get a B! i have been trying really hard. i am even doing the 8 point extra credit paper.

XOXO

ugh college papers

i have about a page and a half on cinderella man right now it is xtra credit and doesnt need to be too long but my mom says more is always better, not necessarily i wouldnt want to be the prof grading 50 10 page assignments!!! wait til she learns that the Vietnam overview paper is not to be more than 3 pages.....i told her 3 pages and shes like oh i think at least 5! wait til she finds out it cant be more than 3!!!!! she will flip! haha! happy advent to all!!!xoxo

Book thing

haha your all gonna love this! from "created equal"....my history book!

"On August 12, 1898, Spain signed an armistice and later in the year ceded its claim to the remnants of its empire, including cuba and puerto rico in the carribbean and the island of guam in the pacific. the united states forced cuba to incorperate into its constitution (written in 1901) the platt amendment, which guareanteed continuing US influence over the country, including the stationing og american troopis at the naval station on guantanamo bay."


soooo interesting LOL!!!


i am writing a paper on the movie Cinderella Man right now. It is OK so far i suppose!XOXO

Let it be Christmas

Decorations, decorations, everywhere! We got some of them out of the attic today. All of my personal decor is on the floor of my room. And I found the binder I am supposed to use to write my mom a new Christmas story and put it in there. I will be posting a poll of different themes for my story and I will use whatever theme all of you pick! In other events, I have been labeling all things in my room with their Spanish names. I only have about 1/5 of my room done but I need to get my decorations up now! Well I have to upload some pix to shutterfly for my mom, so XOXO

Instead of 2 hours though we only have about 1 because at the end of the class we are showing our art to our families. I still have to paint my purity ring on, do the reflection of my Rosary in my CD, and make my pom pom look 3D!!! On another note, Taylor Swifts new CD(which I am hopefully getting for my bday which is in 10 days!!!)10 DAYS EVERYONE, 10 DAYS! 10 days til my bday! is so awesome I listened to some of the songs on youtube, some good ones are Love Story and Fifteen, these are my current faves!
