Busy Busy Bee!

Sorry folks! Haven't blogged in a while. I meant to post one the day I started school, but got distracted and the rest of the week had homework. It's really late and I just finished all my homework and worked on my friends birthday gift I meant to send wednesday. It's been a busy week. I have church in the morning and it is almost midnight. So excuse any sentance or words that do not make sense.

Tuesday was my first day at school. I had my moments of slight breakdowns. It was all very overwhelming; going into a school I am not familiar with and not seeing ONE face I know. It was a bit scary. My parents weren't there (of course) so I had no one to fall back on. But I sucked it up, had to, and went on. Wednesday wasn't as bad, I didn't need my schedule of map to find my class so I guess I memorized my route. I've been sitting alone at lunch, but I really don't mind. I just do my summer reading. I don't expect to make any good friends here, just accqantices in class to talk about class work. It's not that different from my old school. I wasn't very social of spirited at my school, never really cared to be. There weren't that many good people at that school, I don't care to be associated with teenagers who drink or smoke pot. I have no desire to be with them. Ugh, anyways, School is School. I'm just trying to get through it and graduate.

These girls have been on my mind a lot lately. Miss them terribly!!


                                     Haha the beginning of 2012. This always makes my chuckle!

Yes well, church in the morning. Always love going. It's so refreshing to be around Christians when around cursing teenagers all week. Last Wednesday was really nice. It felt like a cold drink of water in a desert, ahhhh. Night y'all!

Last Day Summer D':

Today, is a devastating day.  School begins tomorrow. New school or old school, I still don't like school. Tomorrow will be very interesting. Walking into a new place and not see ONE familiar face.
My schedule has me running from corner to corner, and up and down the stairs. It's madness!! The stairs at the school are a foot high and steep; they definitely do not want you running up the stairs.
I get up at 6 in the morning (probably 5 for those at home) and school starts at 7:30. We get out at 3 everyday, but every Monday we get out at 2. I don't know why but fine with me.

I have my backpack all packed with the school supplies. I'm a bit nervous, new school and harder class. This will really test my intelligence.
Oh! With the summer book I'm forced to read...well not quite there. Not even in the hundreds page and my English teacher says we have a test over it next Monday...oh crap!

Well I should better start reading if I wanna be able to "ace" half that test.

TTFN!    /\/\/

(How awesome is my signiture?)

Fail!

I already failed at this blog thing. I said I'd write one every Saturday and look, it's Sunday night.

Anyways. Friday afternoon we drove down to Sarasota. We didn't swim like I thought I would, but I'm not to bummed. I think I have a slight fear of swimming IN the ocean. I only go knee deep before I'm nervous of something stinging me and pulling me under. We just walked along the beach a little and looked at seashells and then went to Yoder's. Yoder's Amish Village is so fun and cute. It was mainly a a restaurant and it's gotten bigger to where it also has a giftshop, fresh market and deli. The food the restaurant was so amazing. They homecook all the meals and it's the best. Especially the pies!! There are endless selection of pies and they are all freshly made. I got fresh baked peach pie. O.O   My goodness it was wonnnderfull!! John had the peanut butter cream pie, Mom had Key Lime Pie, and Dad got, I think, Apple pie. All so good.

Saturday and Today, didn't do much. Just lounging and Church.

Tomorrow, Mom, John, and I are going back to Tarpon Spring (aka Largest Sponge Diving Capitol in the World...I think) to walk around a take a boat tour. It will be interesting. I've never been on a boat, so I hope it's a fun experience. Maybe I'll see more dolphins. I'm starting to see some dolphins, well their back fin, swimming around.

Update on my summer reading...yeah I'm like on page 39. Not good.

My whole body is so sore. I've been working out a lot but I'm just now recently getting all achy and sorey(?) Mainly my abs are on fire. I have to roll off my bed or couch.
We got a Wii Fit yesterday and it is interesting. It weighed me and told my BMI and guessed my age. It got my age correct, 17. Said I was average/ healthy weight so I was pleased to see that and that I lost a pound from last week. Whoop!!

Well School starts in a week...gross.

Well I need my rest. Night and God Bless!

Rainy Day

Well I feel guilty.
It's been pouring down rain here since 10 this morning and I can't help but think of my family and friends in Texas actually needing it. I wish badly I could send it to y'all.

With it raining, my mom and I aren't able to go out and run a few errands before my brother, John, comes. John flies in at midnight tonight, so we've been cleaning our apartment...well mainly my mom.
I did straighten up my room and bathroom, so I'm not entirely lazy.

I take that back, there is a book I am suppose to read for school, but I have no desire to read it. Although I enjoy reading some books, I don't like to read books I HAVE to read, especially for school. I have to read 1984 by George Orwell. My mom said it was a thin book I can read in a few days if not one; She was mistaken. It's about a inch thick book, slightly over 300 pages.
I am, naturally, a slow reader and even slower when I'm reluctant. I should probably be reading it now than typing this blog, but you don't see me stopping mid-sen....tance to read a book.

Ah, anyways, we're planning on driving down to Sarasota sometime this week. John wants to go, so I guess we have to. I'm pretty excited, I've only stuck my feet in the Pacific ocean in San Diego in December, so it will be fun to be on a beach and see what the big hype is.

Well I think I'm done. I'm happy to see John. It'll be nice to see a familiar face; although I'm sure he'll be annoying while he's here, but he wouldn't be a brother if he wasn't.  God Bless!

First time "Blogger"

Hey Everyone!
I miss you!

I made this blog so YOU, my friends and family back home can keep up with me. It will mainly be about my life here in Florida and being the "New Girl." I've never done any of this before, moving or blogging, so bare with me. I will try to blog at least three times a week, can't promise anything. I have a feeling once school starts I will be busy with school work.
I signed up for all "Honors" classes. Honors is basically Pre-Ap, which I am not use to. So it will be a lot of homework and even *gasp*  studying. D':

For now I will probably blog on Saturdays until school starts, because we, my mom and I, don't do much. So far we've driven around (getting lost), learning our way, and settling in.

Last Saturday, my dad, mom, and me went down to Tarpon Springs, which is a sponge dock that sells a HUGE selection of sponges. It was actually pretty cool.

*awkward silence* ...Yeah. Don't know what else to say.

So read, don't read my blog. I promise you  will get some entertainment in seeing how bad I am in spelling and grammar (oh they have spell-check! Yes!), seeing my sister comment correcting me with EVERYTHING!, and maybe reading about my pathetic life.

I will now bring this post to abrupt end. ...Goodbye! :)
