It's finally Spring! Time to groom the winter coat off of my horse. Time to hear the soothing sounds of the peeper frogs fill the night air. I don't know if anyone else has a farm, but Springtime is always one of the best times to be on one! ;D Does anyone have any big plans for Memorial Day weekend besides going to see AWE? The weekend is always a big excuse to BBQ party! My minature horse Laredo just turned 5 years old on May 4th. He's 31 inches of pure adorable! ;D Hey, don't you think that Orlando with his smouldering Balian look would make a sexy stable boy!  Let's hear it for Spring! Let's hope this Summer heats up for our favorite Brits, Orlando & Keira! I just felt like talking, the past couple of months have been pretty hectic and I haven't had time to post much. |

Im gonna cry alot this spring because i m leaving School and i won't get to see alot of my friends again as there going to different colleges or moving to places like london. I leave the same day as POTC3 comes out so i m gonna be crying pretty much all day. But then its on to the Exams (Grrrrr who ever invented GCSE's should be shot) Spring is gonna be very stressful but hopefully there will be some Orli/Keira love to make it better ;D

I'm exctied, but not excitied for spring. My birthday's in spring, so that's always good and AWE comes out in spring, which is another plus, but I'm graduating from 8th grade next week and since there are about 8 different highschools to choose from, I'm not going to see half of my friends again! So that's really sad cause I've only got a week left with them. But all in all, I love spring. The warm weather is great! Except right now its raining super hard and it's gonna be like this for the next three days!So I guess spring's a little bittersweet this year.

I feel really bad for the both of you, PottyPirate & DesignerDenimX3. I'm sorry that your Spring is sad.  But, try not to look at it like your losing old friends, try to look at it with the excitement that you are going to get to make new friends! ;D Life is an adventure and it's all in the right attitude how you play it out. It's like the saying goes, "There is always rain before there's a rainbow." ;D I hope I don't sound too corny, but I believe that keeping a positive state of mind can really make a difference. |

I can definitely feel the Spring weather here.... it's like, 80 F at school today... It's nice, but it's not nice when I'm lugging around all of my school stuff. I can't believe school is over in 6 weeks for me. It means I won't be seeing friends that are staying here in the States and other friends going to other foreign countries to study. It's only a year though. But still, it's a little sad. I can't wait for AWE though... 16 days is it? It's getting ridiculously close. I can't wait!! I was debating on going to the midnight showing of Spiderman last Thursday, but I didn't feel like it. Now I can't wait for the pirates midnight showing. I wonder when they're going to start selling tickets. This past weekend I went up to the Bay Area to pick up my passport, celebrate and help out at my brother's birthday party (it's a little crazy when there are twenty 18-year olds running around the house), and I wanted to see Conan in San Fran, but there was a tiny detail of not having tickets for it. Instead, the family and I went to Chevy's and had them sing for my brother. lol.

You're so lucky that you have nice weather aliaschic04! It's been raining non-stop almost here where I live! By the end of the week we are supposed to have 10 inches of rain! And, to top it all off, on Friday there was a mile wide tornado somewhere in the south Kansas! It's been crazy! But today was a good day. We watched SNL Best of Will Ferral in science! It was so funny!

My spring break is full of stress!! Yay! I've got the play 4 days in a row with 6 performances. I have to catch up on all my work and next week is when the 10th graders take their big fatty test. Then the week after that we have semester exams. Yes, 10th graders have to take 2 big HUGE test that could ruin you forever. So... poopy. But Pirates comes out this month so it's all good! ^_^

Ah crap, that's what I forgot to watch last weekend... Will Ferell on SNL. Crap. Ah well.... I think I was exhausted by that night, trying keep things in order for my brother's birthday. Tests suck... I had one yesterday.... I had to write essays about Thomas Jefferson as an architect and comparing Art Nouveau and Gaudi's work. It hurt my brain a lot, but I'm glad it's over. I hope I got a good grade on it. I have a fat midterm in english class and architectural practice next Thursday. Yucky ducky.
That sucks about the weather, designerdenimx3. We have our share of rainy weeks, but never tornados. If it makes you feel any better, we get minor earthquakes every 2 months or so. They're fun, as long as no one gets hurt. The weather is cooling off this week... it's a bit overcast and no one is at school today. Kinda depressing. Oh! I found out that we have no school on fridays when I'm in Italy!! I think that makes my year. At Cal Poly, we NEVER have fridays off.... in the 5 years that I will be here, just because they schedule studio from 1-6 PM, monday, wednesday, and friday. Performances should be fun, I remember when I was in a few of them when I was younger. I think my ballet studio at home is having some sort of gala tonight, which I will not be attending. It seems like everyone is going home for the weekend. I went last weekend, so I don't feel that bad for not going.

Ya, our bad weather has stopped, thankfully. Except it's supposed to rain tomorrow! That totally sucks cause my grade is going to World's of Fun for our last field trip thing as a class. So i will be mad if it's cancalled.
But on the bright side, I had my last day of classes today! WOHOOO!!! I'm so happy. Then I graduate Thursday! And then I have a party on Friday! This week is gonna rock!

you are so lucky your graduating. We should of on friday but apparently we don't need study leave anymore to revise at home for our exams so these 2 last weeks are being hell as we are trying to do classwork, revise and go to exams. I have a 2 hour R.E. exam on thursday which no one has revised for so we're all stuffed, and its raining bukets down here too. i m not a happy bunny. sorry for the rant everyone. |

I'm not very happy chappy either. For the fatty exam we take, I'm in a room with a bunch of retarded boys who bubble in their answers in point 2 seconds. Plus, our desks are for right handed people and I'm left! And apparently they won't let me go get another desk so I have to trun my body completely sideways to write. And the vice principal keeps speaking over the intercome every minute. I've got 3 days with this and it determines whether we have to take a crappy class next year. Then next week I've got semester exams. Stop the madness!

The person who invented Exams should be shoot! all you have to say is "exam" or "test" or "GCSE" in my school and people start crying. Even the higher years. missendicott you got the bad desks we got the bad seats. if u lean forward the rest at the back cuts into your back and your bum gets stuck in the hole. i hate them with a passion. anyway stupid fact: We had an insepector walking round today to see if we were smart, well behaved children and what happens some girl at lunch asked 20 kids to jump on her legs,which they did and now her legs are completely broken. How dumb can some people be!?

Haha! Oh dear. 20?/! That's insane. I hate shcool and school chairs! They're ridiculously crappy. We had to take the math part of the test today and one of my friends is a genius and she kept going on about the right answers. Yeah.... I didn't do so well.

I hate tests.... I'm about to study for two of them tonight for tomorrow. Ewww!!! One is for an english tech writing class and the other is a multiple choice test based on readings and lectures for an architectural class. More eww. And, the tests are back to back... yuck. And on top of that, I have to redo my english paper because I suck at writing that much. And then, this weekend I have to build the skyscraper I designed. It will be a scale model, which will be 3.5' high. I'm not that excited about the labor intensive part. Argh... and getting a Visa to go abroad... is another headache. And my car doesn't work still. Talk about a headache. I hate growing up. |
