EXAMS!!

Wow!  We’re on our last week of school. Next week, we will have exams- Tuesday-Friday, with two exams a day. Determining your schedule, you might would have Study Hall first period, and and then second period Chemistry. That means, you wouldn’t have to come in till the start of your second exam, which begins at 10:15, and you would get out at 12:00 every day. It makes exams a little less stressful, by getting out at 12:00 every day.  My exam schedule looks as though I will come in Tuesday at 8:30, and take my Home Economics exams, and my Chemistry Exam, and get out at 12:00. Wednesday I will come in at 8:30 and will take my British Literature Exam, and my Computer 1 Exam, and get out at 12:00. Thursday I will come in at 8:30 and take my Ministry Exam, and then I will be free the rest of the day. I will get out at 10:15. Friday I will come in at 10:15 and take my Yearbook exam and get out at 12:00.Tuesday and Wednesday wil be my heardest exam days. The rest of the week then will be a breeze. I’m glad it’s set up like this, so I can get my hardest tests over with first.

John Mayor

My new favorite singer is John Mayor. I used to hate his music, but I found some songs that I love! Say, his new song, Vulterurs, and Slow Dancing in a Burning Room, are definately my favorite. He’s amazing at guitar, and probabally one of the best guitarest ever.

Winchester

The girls are heading to Winchester Va, for STATES! We got 2nd place in our turnoment agianst New Coventant. We will be leaving sometime Friday, and staying up there in a hotel and probabally coming back Saturday. The first and second teams of the South will be heading up to play the North’s first and second team. New Covenant is number one in our conference, and we’re second, so we both will be going. We’re not sure who we will be playing! Saturday at our turnoment, me, Emily, and Charlene got all turnoment players for CHA. It was exciting since it was the first time I had gotten it! I’l put updates on how we did in Winchester next week! That’s all for now!!

Prom Night

I definately can’t believe I went and watched this movie. I’m one of the most jumpiest people, and I hate scary movies, and somehow Alec talked me into going to watch this movie. We were about 25 min. late so we missed the intro, but it was definately freaky. It’s about this phyco guy, who murdered this girl named Donna’s family three years ago because he was trying to get with her because he thought she was hot, and who has recently broken out of the phyco hopsital where he was imprisoned. Donna who now lives with her aunt and uncle attends prom with her boyfriend, and close friends. The phyco murderer somehow finds out about the prom and comes to the hotel sueite and murderurs a ton of Donna’s friends, and who tries to get Donna. The movie has a farely abrubt ending. I didn’t like the movie just because, from a girls’ stand point it was kindof freakish, because there are phyco people out there. I definately don’t recommend it.

Life is Over..

The day has come, where my cell phone that was missing a hinge has finally broken in half.  My phone, formally known as Delilah, because of the ravish snake skin on the inside of my cellphone, is officially broken and dead. I’d have to say I’m not that sad, because it was probabally the worst cellular device i’ve ever owned. I can’t complain to much though because, I did receive the phone free from my generous cousin Benjamin Ward. It’s time to get a new phone plan and a new phone. Any good ideas on what plan I should get? I want texting, a cute phone, and free nights and weekends. Help!

Kansas bound…

We get out of school on a Friday. I think that Sunday we will be travelling to Kansas for about a week, to visit my family. I haven’t seen my grandparents in at least 4 years. I’ve seen a few of my aunts and uncles that live in Ohio and Indiannia, but there are two or three that I havent’ seen in a long time. We will probabally be staying with my grandparents. I’m really excited, but kindof nervous at the same time. The last time I was in Kansas I was 13 years old. My cousins that I used to hang out with when we would go out there, are married. Some even have children. It’s crazy to think about! Well there’s how my summer will begin.. a very exciting trip to visit my dad’s hometown! I’m excited!!! =)

The final stretch..

Wow, Senior Banquet was here, and now it’s over! I’d have to say this year is flying by! We get out of school May 30th, so we have a little over a month left. Two weeks of the final month will be finishing up and then the 3rd week we will begin exam review. The last week will be exams. We have about 3 full weeks of school, getting off for Memorial Day. This Thursday, the Home Ec. class will have a pajama day in cellebration of sewing pants. We will all wear our pants and have a movie day for half of the day! I can’t believe my Junior year is almost over!

Ode to Spring

Wow! Spring is here!

We should all be of cheer

and maybe even shed a tear.

The flowers are blooming

and soon will need grooming

the bees will then need shooing.

The sun will began to get hot

and we will perspirate and what not

will then settle down on a nice cool cot.

The time for fishing is among us

so grab your pole and let’s catch the buss

if the fish gets off don’t fuss.

Grab your bike and take off for a ride

make sure you don’t collide,

and don’t let your skin get fried!

Let’s all head to the swimmin’ hole

and then go on a nice spring stroll

there will be no toll!

Grab your kite

and hold on tight!

Put it in flight, and don’t let it out of site!

I’m so happy spring is finally here

I can’t believe it’s that time of year,

now let us all give a cheer!!

Hidden Meanings

Listening to secular music, isn’t always a terrible thing. There are some good songs out there, by secular artist. The thing Christians should be cautious of, is the meanings behind the artists songs. Especially rap, a lot of the lyrics are perverted. Yea, the song might have a good beet to it, but the lyrics are just gross. Even songs that are more soft rock have hidden meanings. Here are some lyrics from the song by Nickleback called “If Everyone Cared”.

“If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we’d see the day when nobody died”

This is relating to death in in itself, and there is no hope for salvation in this song. It’s talking about how if everyone loved, and nobody lied, and everybody tried to do right, nobody would die. Basically what it’s saying is if everyone tries to do the right thing, you’l live a good life.  For people out there in this world, who think there is no hope or future hope after death of eternal life, it can be a scary thing.  I hope I haven’t lost you, but basically I’m just trying to warn and to caution you to be careful of songs that might have a good beet to them, make sure there don’t have hidden meanings.
