First Week

Well technically it was the first three days of school. So school started and it feels like there was never a summer at all. Everyone is basically how they looked three months ago. It was like we were on pause and someone hit the play button again. My classes are ok and I don't think they are going to be that hard. Here is my schedule:
A1 Spanish II
A2 Geometry
B1 English II
B2 Ag
3rd Hour Band
A4 Computer Science
B4 Chemistry
5th hour American History
My least favorite class is American History because all the people in that class talk all the time so we are going to end up having a whole bunch of extra work. Of course the teacher is in a bad mood all class because of the people so it's not very fun. Computer science is probably going to be my easiest class because im on the computer all the time so I know how most things work.
It's really different this year because for the past two years I've had classes with the same people because wew were in "advanced" classes. But this year they broke us up. It's going to be harder this year, since we all used to basically work together on everything. Not cheat, but usually if one person couldn't find the answer somebody else could. At least I have someone I talk to in every class. I would die of boredom if I didn't.
It's funny how people get over some things easily and some things are harder to get over. I decided not to talk to one of my friends for the last month of summer. I go back to school figuring she would be ticked off at me. During lunch I ask her a few questions about her summer and were back to being friends again. It reminds me pf how guys can get in a fight , like fists and everything, and in the next five minutes they are buddies again. I get it's how simple the matter is or something. People are just too complex to try and spend timefiguring them out. And I think that's one of my problems I always try to figure things out.

School

Omg I can't believe I haven't posted anything since June. That was two months ago. I'm really sorry I slacked off so much and here I thought I would post alot more since it was the summer.
Well I guess I'll start where I left off. Back in June.

So not much really happened the rest of June except I went to my yearly Indian pow wow for a day. Usually all I do there is buy stuff. This year I got three shirts, a picture, and two book marks signed bythe artist. Then, we have July. I didn't do much for fourth of July. We drove up to the casino and watched their fireworks.

I didn't have much time to myself after that because my family from Michigan came to visit. My aunt, uncle, and three younger cousins. A three year old, six year old, and a nine year old. let's just say I didn't get to sleep late in the mornings. I also didn't get to sleep in my own room. I had to sleep in justin's room and they got to sleep in mine. The good thing was they kept Jessie occupied.

It was a really hectic day when they got there. Besides them coming my dog Lizzie had puppies. Her labor lasted all day and part of the next. we got really worried because she kept having them so we took her to the vet. Overally she had ten puppies but only five made it. Three girls and two boys. They are half golden retriever and half sheepdog/mutt. All of them except one are goldish. The other one is all black. Right now they are getting so big and really cute! We can only keep one though. Personally I like the two boys. And if we keep one I'm going to name him ozzie.

The first day of August Breaking Dawn came out and I went to the midnight release part. It was slightly boring, not really what I expected it to be. August hasn't been very good so far. For one all week I had band practice out in the heat for three hours a day. It was pointless because the first week off school we have to go over it all again because only fifteen people showed up each day. The other reason is that I got my schedule and I din;t get the one class I really wanted because the teacher left. I'm also not in very many classes as my friends.

Oh well I guess school will be ok I usually just overeact to the beginning of school. I will try to post more, but don't hold me to that.

“School is like a lollipop. It sucks until it is gone.”
“I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous. They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. They don't teach you anything worth knowing.”
