Yesterday was the NHS induction. It was interesting. Missing two and a half classes was like amazing and the best part. haha. I missed part of Drawing and Painting, KAP, and Basic Grammar. The induction is really just a bunch of pomp and circumstance. I took some pictures there.

School is like over halfway over. That's like really exciting. My classes are pretty easy right now. KAP is the hardest. I have the Tindall and Shi to read for Monday and then, Bread Givers to read for Tuesday. I started Bread Givers two days ago and I'm like over half way through it. It's like really good.

I think I did pretty well on all of my exams.. even chem. Funny story kind of about exams. On Thursday, we had the orchestra exam during a make-up period and so like we had to stay late. I didn't have a vechile so I had to ride the bus. Guess who was the only person over 14 on it? Guess who was the only person who got off at my bus stop (usually at least 10 get off)? Guess who was the only high schooler? ME! haha.
The new semester starts on Wednesday, when we get back from the four day weekend. I get four new classes: Drawing & Painting I, Basic Grammar, Graphic Design, and Mythology. Yay for less homework. It's a lovely schedule of mostly english and fine arts, the only exception being KAP.
I went to the orthodontist and while I was there I saw Alex (freshmen one). We decided that next time we go we're totally getting the same colours. haha.

It's exam week; marking the end of the semester (not to mention Chem, Forensics, and Speech). I took KAP and English today... tomorrow is my easy day; orchestra, speech, and forensics. Friday is my hard day; algebra and chemistry. I think I did pretty well on my KAP exam and decent on my english.. I'm so not going to do fabulous on the chemistry one but I'm going to look over things a little tonight and then ask the teacher tomorrow about the confusing stuff.
Yesterday.. Kaitlin and I used homework passes to get out of orchestra. We were supposed to study or whatever but we just laid in the hall and talked.
On yesterday and the day before that I took pictures during speech class, during orchestra, and after school...
oh yeah, I almost forgot, I made a new layout. Check it out.

Yesterday my friends and I made a video for my speech class. We did a beauty pageant called Miss Thang. The judges and contestants had obscure over the top personalities, the hosts were normal. Here's a character list.
Hosts: Ceejay -- Emily "Em" Hammer Codee -- Cicilia "Ci" Hammer
Judges Laura -- Myriad Persona: had imaginary friends named Chip and Dale Alex -- Missouri Black: the heartbroken girl who isn't over her boyfriend that broke up with her two years ago Susanne -- Joyce Java: the coffee addict.
Contestants (in order of elimination) Caycee -- Melody Flutterby: the ditz Karina -- Victoria Queen: the pageant queen Ganae -- Stephanie Sniffles: the hypochondriac me -- Lucy Gamble: the girl who lost a bet.
We sort of did a beauty pageant combined with a little Top Model. It was really funny. The best part was probably the judges entrances.. Laura walked the runway stopped, posed, and did a half turn.. then Alex did the same.. the Susanne also did the same. After Susanne's turn they counted to three and turned into the Charlie's Angels pose. (I have pictures of all of this)
Right after I finished that my mom, grandma, Elisabeth and I went to the zoo to see the lights and stuff. Well, that wasn't fun.. nothing was really out and it was really crowded but we got there kind of early so we avoided most of the crowd. I hate crowded places especially with little kids underfoot.. ugh! Oh well I got a few cute pictures.

Yesterday, Kristin, Kristen, Katy, Lindsay, Summer, Camron, and I were DARE Ambassadors at our elementry school. That was fun. I'll tell you what we did. We left the high school around 8:45, in a hurry to avoid the lock-down drill. Then we got to the elementry school put the stuff for the celebration thing in the cafeteria and went to the fifth grade classroom. Then the DARE officer like introduced us, sort of, and we introduced ourselves and told the kids the basics. Next, we answers their random questions. Which ranged anywhere from friends and what middle school and high school are like to how many people do drugs and drink there. One girl even asked "did you plant any trees?" ... yeah we all just looked at each other and were like uhmm.. no? We did the whole question and answer thing for two other classes. After that we went to recess. I played with Katelynn. We hop-scotched and swang. Then we went to lunch. Like, we [the ambassadors] sat down all spread out and the kids just flocked around, it was really cute. Then the kids had a program and we watched it for a bit. A little before the end of that we went to the cafeteria and set up for the celebration. Then the kids came and the three kids who won the essay contest read their essays then all the kids got their shirts, bands, cards, and ice cream coupons. Then we made the ice cream sundaes and signed their shirts. That was pretty funny like we just sat down and they walked by and we signed them. After we cleaned up, we went home.
Today my mom and I went and saw The Baystreet Brass Quintet. It was really good. I saw Susanne, Daniel, and Kimberly there, yeah, but it was pretty much old people. Yeah, not too much a teenage crowd there.

| Homecoming |

I suppose I should tell you all about homecoming now that you've seen my pictures. Well... let's see I went over to Kristen's we had pizza and got ready. Then we drove to my uncle's so I could brush my teeth and get my cameras. After that, we drove to the school and waited in line to get in for about 15 minutes or so. We wandered around after that to find people to take pictures with. Then Kristen left at 10 so I hung out with Julian. That was rather interesting. haha. When Julian left around 11, maybe, I went and hung out with Lena, Caycee, Kate, and them... we stuck around until 11:30. The vice principal dance, that was amusing... Then Karina, Jake, and I left. Yeah, that's basically it. haha. Actually, I didn't think it was too horrible. I liked it better than when I went my freshmen year. (and no I did NOT dance)
