SO MANY EMOTIONS! :( :[ :/ :l :] :) :D XD

Usually, I dread the first day of school. This one more than ever just because I want to make sure that I don't have AP Stats. I got the schedule change thing so hopefully it goes through and I get what I want, even though I don't know exactly what that is yet.

Aside from that, I'm so pumped to get through my last year here and I'm ready to take charge of not only Journalism, but Mock Trial as well. Prithvi, who some of you guys might know, is also trying to be the captain of Mock Trial, but I don't know.... I totally could see him as our pres, but I also want the opportunity. But the difference between us is that I don't want it for academic reasons. I straight up love Mock Trial with all that I have and I want to show the everybody that.

Still, I'm looking forward to looking at the deer-in-headlights faces when most of our journalists realize they didn't do the summer homework. Just because were not an AP doesn't mean that the outside world stops! Anyways, I'm not sure if I'd describe my feelings as being in the final let's-do-this-already mode or just genuinely excited...because I'm never genuinely excited for school.

I guess the only class that's really challenging will be AP Spanish simply because there's nobody to hide behind, so to speak. I can't BS my way through it, which sucks! Dang, last year!

I'M A SENIOR YA'LL! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO0OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Oh my gosh, can track please start again? Like, now?! I'm trying to think of ways to mark the booth so that I'll forever have a legacy as the first 4 year manager. I think I'm the first. Hopefully. But I'm so out of ideas, I honestly just want this year to be the best and not have to worry so much about academics because even though that's important, my life is not academics. My life is not my grades. My life is not stressing about tests. My life is living on my feet so that I won't die on my knees. Make sense? Anyways, I'll see all of your faces on Tuesday, be prepared! :D

PS I understand most of you don't read the blogs, but I am, repeat, AM reading and marking down how many comments you have (for those of you that do read, good for you!). It's a part of the assignment, so don't be surprised...

Sleep

Over the summer I have grown accustomed to sleeping in till about eleven-thirty or twelve. But now that school is starting soon I will have to start training my internal clock to wake up at six. I wish that school would start at nine and end at five so that way i could sleep in longer and could do homework before school in needed. But i mostly just want to sleep longer.

First Varsity Sport- Soccer

Began tryouts this week for my first varsity soccer season. All has gone well so far and I am excited to see where this team will go. Unfortunately I have not played as much soccer as i would have wanted this summer but still feel i will make the team. There aren't very many defenders so this is another boost that I will make the team. Hopefully looking for a starting position in a stopper or a sweeper position. For those of you who don't follow soccer the stopper and sweeper are the controlling defenders in the back near the goalie and they stop and push the ball back up to either the middle or forward positions of the field. Looking forward to a great season and many saved goals. Also want to at least win one game . . . unlike varsity last year.

Cracked Phone

Ok, so I drop my phone all the time and nothing ever happens. It's a pretty durable phone (not anything fancy, just a regular touchscreen with a keypad.) and it has a decent case on it. It's always falling on the cement,  but it never even gets a scratch. Anyways, yesterday I was walking out of the dentist office and I dropped my phone on the cement. I picked it up and it was cracked all over! :( the touch screen still works, but it looks horrible. :( it's all scratched up too. 

Yosemite

This last Saturday I went to Yosemite for the first time ever!!!! It was SOOO pretty! I loved it. It's kind of crazy because I have lived in Cali my whole life, and have never been.  My grandma lives in Fresno so we drove down there and spent the night at her house, then went to Yosemite during the day. It was really fun.  I was kind of bummed though, because Yosemite falls was all dried up, and a lot of the other falls were just a trickle. We hiked up to vernal, and it was like a creek!  

Sports

Ok, so freshman year I did JV track and Freshman Basketball, but I quit both of those last year because I had a super busy schedule.  This year I want to start up a new sport, but have no idea what to do.  It needs to be a no-cut sport, because I have no experience in any of the sports that require try outs. Lol.  Anyways, I was thinking of playing tennis or golf. I think they look fun and I'm pretty sure neither of them are cut sports. I know practice for fall sports has already started, but I'm hoping I could start with the school year. I just need  more information...and maybe a bit of practice. 

My Brother's Coming Home!

My Brother has been at BYU all summer and I am super excited because he comes home tomorrow!!! He has about a 2 week break in between semesters so he will be home for a while! I can't wait to see him.  I have Skype/called him a lot, but haven't seen him face to face in forever! He flies In Tomorrow night. :)
