I woke up on time today, received a phone call from my parents wishing me a happy birthday. It was nice but too early. Last night, the TCs decided to visit me and wish me a happy birthday in their own little way. I turned seventeen, feeling a little old but those are the rules of life and to start my great morning Ms. Smith decided to sing to the birthday people. Her voice was so great it hurt my ears. Eclipse came out last night at midnight. I so wanted to be there, but it was just impossible. I would of been there if I didn't have to be here. Can't wait until Friday, so I can go watch it and get excited again. Besides that, I'm happy because it's Wednesday, tomorrow Thursday and then home on Friday. I'm counting down the days so we can be done with homework, teachers and work.

Eclipse comes out tomorrow, Wednesday. I'm pretty exicted because I think it's going to be better than New Moon. More action and new characters. My birthday is also tomorrow. I"m not so excited about that because I have to spend it here at Grand Valley. I can't wait until the weekend so I can go watch Eclipse, celebrate my birthday, and watch the fireworks. I woke up late today, but other than that my day is starting out good. I've noticed that we don't have that much time left here, the days are going by fast and then we'll be done with Upward Bound. Our Summer is short weeks away until we can get it started.

Summon

1.) In writing future paper, I believe Summon would be real helpful. If you would write a paper on a school subject Summon would be a perfect source. Everything you would read would be educational and true. You wouldn't find random things like on any search engine.
2.) If I could use Summon to look up anything, I think I would look up information regarding a paper I have to do or if I want to find out more about a certain subject. I would look that up because it would give me true information, and information that is supported. I would also look up history to know what I wasn't able to hear on the news or what I didn't know about. I'm pretty sure that I've missed a lot. A certain subject I would look up would be Ancient Greek, it's pretty interesting to find things about that.
3.) I liked Summon because it limits my results to certain info and I can always check a book out about what I look up and it provides me with as much information.

The weather doesn't seem good at all. Hopefully it'll just be for a while. The bad thing is that we'll have to walk under the rain if it's not over by when class ends. They could of let us stayed in today but apparently they don't like the idea. One of the things I most hate is lightning and thunder. I'm slightly scared because some times the thunder is louder than others and then lightning just freaks me out. I never know what to expect. But hey besides all that it's Wednesday, once again one more day of class tomorrow and we're off for the weekend. These days have been going by fast so I'm glad about that. I always get excited when the weekend comes around.

Tuesday*June 21, 2010

I couldn't really sleep last night. There was thunderstorms which I was slightly scared of. I get scared mostly of the noise and than what others are saying at the moment. My roommates and I slept on the floor, besides raining it was hot. So, we weren't comfortable in our beds. We grabbed our stuff, moved to the floor and put the fans facing us. Around four in the morning I got up and it was kind of cold so I moved back to my bed. The first alarm went of at 6:30 in the morning but we just turned it off. Than my alarm goes off at seven, we didn't want to wake up at all so I just got up and turned it off too. We ended up waking up around 7:20, we were late to breakfast so we didn't eat anything. There wasn't anything good by the way so it was good.

Monday* June 21, 2010

Monday, 5 more weeks to go counting this week. Not half way there but it's okay. About my weekend, it was alright. My sister had her graduation party, it was okay. I saw some friends from school there and I got to spend the day with my boyfriend too. The bad thing about Saturday was that my parents had me here and there. I had to go to the store, go to the banquet hall, and just to different things. I had to drop off and pick up things, I was running short on time but at the end everything turned out fine. I was happy of being back home and sleeping in my own bed, comfy. On Sunday my family went over to celebrate Father's Day. We watched the FIFA World Cup, Brazil against Ivory Coast. I didn't finish watching the game because I was too tired and I fell asleep, but I heard they won. That was good, I was hoping for them to win. Besides having my family over and watching the game, I still had to pack to come back here yesterday. That was the non-exciting part, but I'm here.

Thursday*

It's Thursday, last day of class today. Then tomorrow we just have to be here for a few hours and we finally go home. I think it's the day that everyone has been waiting for! I'm ready for my weekend, to see my parents, and that special someone. The bad thing is that we have to come back Sunday night. The summer everyone has expected, but we all knew it was going to be this way. The bad thing is that today instead of study table we're going to do a special activity. They haven't told us what it's about because it's supposed to be a surprise, but for us their surprises are always disappointments to us. The other bad thing is that we have to take three quizzes today, our anatomy quiz seems like a test because it's longer than the others, so it seems like it. I really didn't study, I just read over my papers once and than I put everything away. I'm not used to studying because I tend to forget what I just studied. The most difficult quiz for me is going to be Spanish, I think, we were supposed to study some vocab, but the words are to long and I can't even pronounce some of them. Remembering the definitions is just not what I'm good at doing. Putting all that aside, I'm just ready for my weekend to start.

I found a blog I absolutely liked. I love twilight, especially Taylor Lautner, not just because he's hot, but I like the way he acts. The blog I found talks about how he doesn't like taking off his shirt unless there's a good reason behind it. He doesn't like to "air out his abs."

Wednesday*

One more day of class without counting today so that's good. That's the first thing that comes to my mind. The weekend. Today's our last study table for the week since they say we're doing an activity tomorrow so we'll see how that goes. I'm wide awake today. Yesterday, I went to Kirkhof (not quite sure of how to spell that) and played pool and guitar hero. I think I'm getting better at pool because I can hold the stick better now. I'm just learning how to hit harder. Dinner wasn't good yesterday, we had some type of salad with bread sticks which I didn't enjoy. I'm ready to be over with this week and go home and eat some real food. So far, I've been doing good with homework, it hasn't been hard. I'm not good at writing without a topic, I tend to change subjects a lot or just talk about random things.

Tuesday*

Tuesday morning, and everyone around me seems to be tired. Even Wendy who's sitting by me, yawns constantly. I'm tired too even though I went to bed early but I guess it's just a thing during the summer. We're mostly tired the whole time here well at least I am. Nothings really on my mind at this moment. I could say I'm ready for Friday to be here because I miss my family, my bed, my mom's food, and my home. So far, I know I'm half way there because it's Tuesday already and we have Wednesday and Thursday to go only. It still seems like a lot but that's what helps me concentrate on what I do. I tell myself this will soon be over with even though we just started. I'll be getting used to it later on, I should be used to it because it's my third year here, but it always takes some time again. I've noticed that not every one's in a good mood today. In Breakfast it was actually quiet today and they didn't have problems dismissing us.

Blogged before?

I have not blogged before. I didn't even know I had an account but I guess I'm going to need it so that's good.
