Dear old Gramma

My mother's mother, whom my siblings, cousins, and I have lovingly christened "Gramma Sue", isn't usually a normal "gramma" type--she eloped when she was 16, her youngest child is younger than her oldest grandchild, she's been remarried three times, and on and on...But she has her moments. One of... Sign in to see full entry.

Blehhhh...

Okay, I understand a family being dependent on each other, especially one like mine, with one parent and four kids, all of which are under the age of 18 and highly spoilt, but this is just ridiculous. I've been out of school this week, partly due to the flu and partly to the fact that my mother's in... Sign in to see full entry.

The worst has come and passed!

I am living proof that hard work pays off in the end! For the last 18 weeks, I have slaved over my Algebra notes, thinned my hair from yanking on it in my AP English class, held my temper with extreme frustration in Spanish, and been bored completely stupid in Child Education II. Today, I took the... Sign in to see full entry.

I've made up my mind (finally)

I've been thinking about it for a week, and I've finally figured out all my New Year's resolutions! 1. Spend more time reading on the porch swing. 2. Play more basketball with my sister. 3. Rescue my floundering GPA. 4. Send out thank-you letters when I should send them out. 5. Call my friends for... Sign in to see full entry.

Even more ironic than ever...

If I were able to move my hand properly, I would laugh at myself. I woke up yesterday morning with a peculiar twinge in the palm and middle finger of my right hand that sent shooting pains down into my wrist every time I moved it the wrong way, and I couldn't make a fist for being so weak. Nothing... Sign in to see full entry.

No sleep for me tonight

As you probably noticed from my last blog, I think a lot of things are overrated. It's not that I'm jaded or cynical, I just like to marvel at what some people chalk up to wonderousness. Anyway, there are a lot of things on my "eternally overrated" list: right now, being mature, getting up on time,... Sign in to see full entry.

Maturity is overrated

Ever since my 13th birthday about four years ago, I've been in a constant struggle with my mother about whether or not I was mature enough to do certain things, the things a normal teenager wants to do. But, there were just some things I couldn't--I still had to have a chaperone on dates (that was a... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy Days...

Somebody asked me the other day why I was such an optimistic person. The first answer that came to mind was, "It's so lame to NOT be optimistic." Anyone who knows me will know that things must be really, really, REALLY bad before I start being pessimistic. What fun is it to be like that? Life may be... Sign in to see full entry.

It's the best time of the year...

I really love Christmas. I'm like a little kid in the respect that I love to see houses lit up, a sparkly 6-foot tree topped with a glowing angel, store windows decorated, and clerks wearing Santa hats. Everything seems so wonderful and happy and exciting...and I still think some small part of me... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm trying to figure out if I'm really getting an education, or if it's just a dream. So far this year, I've "learned": 1. Imaginary Numbers (they're imaginary, but that doesn't mean they don't exist...even though they're supposed to be the answers to impossible equations...or so says my algebra...
