YES!

So, I have successfully completed my part of a huge project for U.S. History. I have two partners. Let's call them M and K. Now, M was perfect. He finished everything and I was fine with glueing down the pictures for him since his printer wasn't working properly for pictures. He got everything done like he was supposed to, just perfect! Now, K on the other hand. I have no idea if he's done everything. He was supposed to bring it over to my house and guess what. When I went to his house to see if it was done ... HE WASN'T HOME! Now, he's new so I'm guessing he does have a very good reason for not being home. He'd better anyway. We have M and K. I really hope K got his work done, or else I'm going to have to kill him! (Not literally, yeesh).

Now, last year (2010) I took the PSAT. The PSAT is the Practice SAT (I don't remember what SAT stands for). We got the results yesterday. Guess who is reading AND writing on a level higher than 11th graders. And who's the one who is higher than 10th graders for a math level.

That would be yours truly! Above is the short version, now those of you who have taken the PSAT or SAT lately (lately being from mom's SAT to now) will understand this:
Score on the 20-80 scale for reading: 66 - scored higher than 97% of sophomores.
Score on the 20-80 scale for math: 48 - scored higher than 63% of sophomores.
Score on the 20-80 scale for writing: 54 - scored higher than 88% of sophomores.

Yes I'm super proud of me. The test is for 10th graders, not 8th graders. And it was the same test that students all over America took. Mom was proud too. So proud, in fact, that the only word she could come up with was, "Damn."

I hope everyone has a good weekend. I get a 3 day weekend and am soooo looking forward to it.

P.s. Mom said the picture on my last post was "sick." Well, feast your eyes on this!

Wow, wow, wowwowwowwow!

It's raining outside. That's not very remarkable is it? Didn't think so. It's really icy outside too, especially the road, paired with the ice it's really dangerous. So, naturally we got a 2 hour delay for school. That might cancel the Spelling Bee, but I wasn't to worried. Lunch would be the same time so I could still make up my algebra test.

Then mom gets a call. She talks about 2 hour delays and ice. She looks at the Schweinfurt Facebook. She says she didn't notice that it had changed in the ten minutes between then and now. School's been cancelled. SUCKERS! I don't have to go to school today because of all the slick ice on the roads. and this is the school that hasn't cancelled school for a day for about 10 YEARS!! I was so happy I started dancing around the house!! I made Heidi dance with me. She didn't much care for it.

Well, have a good day!!

12:00 AM

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

At exactly 12:00 I went to go stand on the porch. People were shouting, "HAPPY NEW YEAR!" and I shouted along with them. Fireworks were exploding all around me and I could see them all very clearly. Then it started a rain/snow drizzle/fall weather pattern and for some reason I began to laugh uncontrollably! (Then it got too cold and I had to come back inside!)

I sent my first e-mail to my best friend, then one to all my YouTube friends, then one to my other best friend.

It's been a great 23 minutes so far and a great start to the new year!
