Quick Request

Would you all please say a prayer that I do well on my Spanish test tomorrow? I have the vocab words memorized for the most part, but I can never remember which ones need tildes and where to put them... I'm also having trouble remembering how to pronounce the letters in the Spanish alphabet...

Gracias, Amigas and Amigos!

Buenas Noches!

I'm Busy, Busy, Dreadfully busy......

If you know veggie tales you'll probably get the title.

Well, School started on Monday. The homework hasn't been to bad so far. It's usually under two hours a day. I was able to get most of today's done in my 35 minute study lab during school, and in the study lab after school. I'm really liking my school. It's been loads of fun! I am one of the lucky few that does not have to share a locker, which is very nice.

Anyone want to guess my favorite part of school?

You got that right!

It's Choir!!!

I absolutely love choir! I don't remember feeling this happy, since, well. I was last in choir. I love the teacher. I love the class, I love the music. It's my last period as well, which is awesome.

So far we are working on "The Star-Spangled Banner", and "Ain't Got Time To Die". I am singing soprano, as usual. What is your voice type, if you know?

In other news, WE FOUND A HOUSE!!!!

It's on;y 1/3 of a mile away from our current house. Basically, it's on the next street and down a bit. Super close. Plus, it has enough bedrooms! I will still get my own bedroom, which will be awesome. When we moved to our current house, I got my own bedroom for the first time since my sister was born. And I have loved every bit of it. I'm a private person, so I like to have my privacy and my alone time, so it's nice to have my own space. Do you have your own room, or do you share? Which do you prefer?

Chao!
Adios!

Buenos Noches!

A Poem for Teenagers.

When I was a Child
I saw in Black and White.
Everything was obvious
Either wrong or right.
No arguments, no pros and cons
Choices were precise.
Pure and joyous clarity
Gave me a simple life.
So I grew up and learned to face the world
Living life that way.
And now I feel so unprepared
'Cause black and white turned gray.
My unfaltering vision failed
Focus left my eyes.
Where choices once were obvious
I can't tell wrong from right.
Because today I am a teenager
And nothing's quite so clear.
I'm seeing through an adult's eyes
A child's biggest fear.

Quick Update

Hi Everyone!

Well, we are still looking for a house to rent. Please pray that we can find one in our price range with enough room for our family! Thanks!

Bad News: My poor laptop is incapacitated at the moment, so I will not be able to blog, or comment on all of your blogs as much as I would like to. So you may be getting comments from me days after you posted. ;) My dad the smart computer expert guy is hopefully going to be able to come home and fix my laptop this weekend. (He lives and works in Spokane, WA over the week and mom usually picks him up on the weekends as his car doesn't work.) So here's to hoping that my laptop is fixed by next monday!!! Fingers Crossed!!! :)

My sister, Rachel, and I will be starting school in a little less than three weeks! We've got about all of the uniform clothes we need and just need to go shopping for supplies. I got my class schedule and I have: Math, History, Spanish I, Science, Ancient Literature, and (Drum roll please!!!!!) Choir!!!!! Guess which one I'm most excited about? ;)

Have a nice rest of your week, and I will try to post again as soon as I can.
TTFN!
