Update

My room is clean.



My parents apparently thought they needed to do an intervention.


Frustrating.

Dilemma

Ok. I've got some good news, and I've got some bad news.


The GOOD NEWS: I've been accepted to BYU. Hooray! I've wanted to go there for a long time. I didn't think I was going to be good enough to get in with my ACT score.


The BAD NEWS: I actually need to make a decision of where I'm going to go now. BYU is expensive and because I don't have a 4.0 and a 36 ACT score, it's REALLY hard to get a scholarship from them.


Grrrr..... I'm making a pro/con list (Rory Gilmore is my inspiration), so I guess we'll see what happens.

Masquerade

Well. Last night was the school dance. It was so much fun!

For our date, we went and picked up three of the guys (they live kind of far away, so it took us awhile), went to Cami's house, decorated our masks (don't worry, I have a picture of mine), ate dinner, and then went to the dance (we were 2 hours late!).


I don't have any other pictures besides the group and single ones we took at the dance. (I forgot my camera; it was depressing.) Even if I did have pics, my mom probably wouldn't let me post them anyway.



Anyway, here's the picture of my mask.








It used to look better. It kind of fell apart at the dance. (I didn't use enough hot glue.) It was prettier. There was a black feather next to the white one and there were more beads and ribbon.

Intimidated

I'm been feeling really intimidated lately. I don't know why. People have been excelling, I've been slowing down. I keep comparing myself to these successful people, and I feel ashamed of myself.
I feel like my opinion doesn't matter. I feel insignificant.
Any advice on how to stop these feelings?

The Black Hole (scary Dun-Dun-Duns follow)

I've been putting this off. It's driving me absolutely crazy, but I just haven't had the time to do it. Finally, I have everyday off but one this week at work. This automatically came to my mind as the thing I NEEDED to do.

Please understand, I'm not usually a slob, but I haven't had time to clean my room since Christmas Break. I had to change that. I can't stand to live like this anymore. I'm really embarrassed, but I'm hoping that this will motivate me a little more to just get in there and fix it! (I'm pathetic; I can admit that.)


(If there are any small children in the room, you may want to shield their eyes, because this picture is ugly.) Scroll down if you dare.

Someone Finally Had The Nerve

Stephen King, I applaud you.


Someone had to say it.


UPDATE: (For the record, I did like Twilight. I was one of those that were hopelessly in love with it for a while. Then as the other books came out, and the storyline steadily got worse, I decided, it was just a captivating story, like King said. Thank goodness I came around to reality when I did.)
Guess where I am right now?


I'm NOT at school! I'm at home.


Want to know why? No it's not because I'm sick.


It's because I passes the UBSQT test my sophomore year, and while the sophomores at school have to take it today, I don't!



I knew that test wouldn't seem so bittersweet when I was enjoying those benefits my senior year. Haha!

I'M DONE!


All of my financial aid for college is in! Now all I need to do is wait for my admissions letter (last one), and continue to apply for scholarships.





Hear that??? It's ME singing the "Hallelujah Chorus"!!!
