Yasmine was right

Yasmine, you were definitely on the right track back in March when you said that Adele's "Set Fire to the Rain" can be paralleled to Katniss' life in the Hunger Games. I found there are many people who agreed with what you thought and actually put a Hunger Games twist on Adele's music in multiple videos. I have lost the first video that alerted me of your correctness, but there are many videos that can be used for reference. 

Letters to...

I, unlike many other teenager my age, have yet to acquire a cell phone. The lack of such handheld technology has turned me to other ways of communications which at first seem tedious but turn out to have a lot of old time charm to them. Yes, I can email whoever I want to talk to, or message them on Facebook, or, better yet, talk to them when I see them. But who checks their email anyways and how could I give a very detailed explanation of what my day was like on Facebook and what if the person I want to talk to doesn't go to RHS? So I decided to turn to writing long hand letters. The only flaw that I find in writing letters is that it takes forever to get a response. What Facebook or email or face to face interaction can get you in mere seconds takes weeks with letters. Initially I found writing letters a bit difficult but I have come to feel comfortable with just taking half an hour or so to gather my thoughts.

Almost Done

So school is almost done! Im almost done in pretty much all my classes. The only ones I have stuff left to do in are Spanish, History, Math, and Language Arts; so Im halfway through. The only thing that sucks is I have a Language Arts final on the last day of school...seriously? I don't really think thats neccesary, maybe my teacher should have planned a little better so we don't need to have a final on THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL. It's just ridiculous to me. Oh well I'll get over it. I am just so excited to be done with Junior Year. I don't think I have ever been this excited for the end of the year. But I am, I swear I have Junioritis, I'm just done.

Birthday!

So next tuesday is my birthday!! Im super excited! The only problem is, I still have no idea what to do for it. Getting older comes with problems trying to figure out what to do. Ive done the dinners, Ive done the sleepovers, and Ive done the little kid birthday parties; I dont really know what to do. Maybe I might just have a low key hangout kind of thing. Oh well either way it will be fun!

Reflection

Tomorrow morning is Senior Sunrise. It's crazy to think that we only have one year left of highschool. This year has gone by so fast but has been one of the best of my high school years so far. With all of my wonderful teachers, coaches, friends and family making this year so special. Our varsity cheer team has had an amazing year and have gotten so close. Yearbook and newspaper had a crazy year but we somehow managed to get it done and still have to it look great. Also as a junior this year i was able to share the year in highschool with my sister being a freshman. It was interesting to see her perspective on highschool compared to mine having been here for two years. Overall this year has been one of the best and i look forward to next year and all of the new opportunities being a senior can present.

24 Hours till Senior Rally

I honestly cant believe that its already here!
Tomorrow will be basically the last day of school for the senior class, because everything after that will be a whirlwind of graduation practice, senior meetings and senior activities (not really ready for that)
And next week I'm graduating! Its ridiculous at how fast this year went, and its taken me by surprise because i wasnt expecting time to fly by as it did.
All i want to do, is enjoy every single moment of these last few days with my class and friends because everything is going to be a complete spin next year, because college begins!

I looked at my "honorable moment" quote in the yearbook and it read:
"...I will walk across the stage at graduation and I know i have done my best"

Im ready for that moment, and when it happens it will be the best moment of my life.
:)

The End

Three days. That’s it. I can’t believe that after 14 years in the Rocklin school system I’m finally done. 1 year at Rocklin Pre-school, 7 years at Parker Whitney, 2 years at Spring View, and 4 years at Rocklin High.  It is truly amazing how fast time goes by, especially these last few years.  I have lived in Rocklin, in the same house, my whole life and although it was a little boring at times, I wouldn’t have changed a thing.  It was a great town to grow up in, and I have met some really awesome people that I am privileged to call my friends.  I don’t think it has really hit me yet, that in 10 days, I will be graduating and never coming back to Rocklin High, but I’m really looking forward to these next few weeks with my friends.  Although I will be moving away from home for the first time in my life this September, I know I will be excited to come back over breaks to see friends and family.
