Dates, Braces, School

Here is a little bit of a journal entry.

I went on a date last night with my friend Carly from the Boston Stake, and I doubled with my friend Ryan from my ward. His date was was our old teacher's quorum advisor's sister, she was out visiting from Utah. We went to T.G.I. Fridays and then went to Carly's house to get some ice-cream and so that I could finally meet her parents.
Prom is tomorrow night for me, and I'm bringing my best friend Mia Hansen (a freshman at BYU-Idaho). After Prom, we are going to go back to my place and her brother, Ryan, is going to come over and eat some Chinese Food with the rest of my family, well those that are still alive.

I had another Orthodontic appointment, and I got another "GOOD" for my brushing and flossing! If i get four more, I can get a free $10 gift card to some store of my choice! YAY! I have now reverted back to the age of ten! Actually my orthodontist Dr. Benjamin Gamm is really amazed at how fast my teeth move, I do not believe that I will have them on for much longer.

I have a few more tutoring sessions before I take my SAT tests. I'm now trying to fit the sessions into my JV Boys Tennis schedule, and that is not an easy task. Also, I have All School Orchestra rehearsals some Thursday nights, some dance classes on Friday nights, and then I try to squeeze in some family and friend time. Oh, I also have some National Honor Society meeting to go to before the induction ceremony on April 30th.

I am also almost completely done with my Duty to God Award and should be able to get in within the month of April. I am done with all of my Eagle Rank stuff. I am now just waiting and waiting, somewhat patiently.

I think that is all I have going on right now, besides trying to plan out my summer and trying to find a summer job.

Dear Life (#3)

In honor of my dear sister, Siovhan, I shall do a post just like hers.

Dear MCAS,
Thank-you for being so bothersome. Last year I did have to take you, and I passed you with flying colors. This year you are not a burden though, I can now get an extra 1-3 hours of sleep! Also, I get to tease the Freshman and the Sophomores!!!

Dear Allergies,
Oh how I loathe you so. Why must you inflict my body with such nastiness. I how much I have to scratch myself just to alleviate the itchiness. Also, why must I have itchy eyes? It makes it difficult to see with my contact lenses in my eyes.

Dear Life (#1)

Dear Life,
Why must you be so difficult? Throwing twists and turns into every blissful lane of life. Why must you turn simple situations, events, and relationships so complex? I do need to thank you life, for you do provide some quite tremendous brief moments amidst such confusing times. Why do my friends finally understand me? How long does it tke for people to understand one another more fully?

Dear Spanish 5,
Why are you such an easy class? Your homework such a joke. The classwork, why so much? I just want to stay with me so that I can transition to AP Spanish easier. Not to mention I do need you to teach me the Past Subjunctive tense.

Dear Anatomy Class,
Why do the cats have to smell when they are being cut to pieces? Why does the cat fur seem to fly EVERYWHERE? The tests are easy, the memorization, BAH! All in all you are an easy class.

Dear Music Classes,
Why so much work? What are the other music interns doing, and why am i getting recognized by the choir and band directors finally after three years of hard work?

Dear Tennis,
Why have you let me down again? It might be for the best, because now I can actually have a life!

In a way, I thank you life, for all that you give me (even the bad stuff).
