"It's five o'clock in the morning. Conversation got boring. You said you're going to bed soon. So I snuck off to your bedroom."
Goodmorning Sportsbreak and hello getting up at 6 and not being able to fall back asleep after few hours of sleep lately and a need to sleep in. Ugh better just get up and start the day and make something good out of it :)
If I were a bird I'd be a parrot because they're astonishingly beautiful.
First off - Today I got my Math test back. Didn't do great, not as well as I wish I had done and not as great as I know I can do.. But alright. After that the day went on pretty well with a long lunch break, a short English class and a birthday party for my niece who turned 1. Then I came home and started packing my things for sports break which starts next week. Realised - I forgot all my physics books in school. Crap. Big test coming up after the break and was planning to study while up north.. yay for being the stupidest idiot on the planet right now..
More entertaining part of today was finding out my dad had bought SWEDISH FISH to bring on the trip!! O.O I had no idea Sweden had started selling Swedish fish!! I feel like the US is taking over hahah these aren't made in Canada like the American ones though! :P
Today I woke up feeling like the weight of the world was on my shoulders. Chemistry test for 3 hours in the morning, dentist visit to get an acrylic splint (ok totally just looked up that word, no idea that's what it's called..), and hadn't figured out how to make work next week work out with my skiing trip... So much to worry about. But then I thought - HEY. Everything will work out and if it doesn't there is absolutely nothing I can do right now to force it to. I can just do what I am capable of and I need to stop thinking the world will end if I don't manage to have everything under control. Yes. So I went off and took my test, and it wasn't that awful. Didn't do amazingly great, but still feeling alright with it. And I went to the dentist and turns out I don't need that acrylic splint at the moment at least. And texted a friend at work who said he'll cover for me and I can take his shift the week after that. SEE? (Yes Trevor you're right I need to stop stressing about things..)
I think this quote belongs to Henry Ford, but I first learned it from Rich Hill :)
Also - today is Fat Tuesday and all Swedes have Fat Tuesday Buns (aka Semlor). Tradition at its best! <3
Monday can be the Best day of the week if you make it Happy
FINALLY I can speak again! It's still somewhat rusty and I've heard numerous times today that I sound like a teenage boy entering puberty.. Fun, but at least I'd rather be a teenage boy than mute :D
Today has been exciting enough with Swedish class, two hours of Chemistry which consisted of everyone being half panicking about the huge test tomorrow morning, Lunch during which Louise and I had an epiphany and went to her house to see an episode of the tv show we follow together, an apple muffin, physics class where we plugged in a nail and watched it catch on fire and melt, theater with a crazy wife armed with a golf club as well as guys putting on mascara, an apple cake and fat tuesday buns, then a quick stop at home for a tasty dinner and off to bellydance where we danced out superfast speed up dance and it went strangely well (=I didn't fall, I didn't die and I didn't break any bones). Now I am home and trying to make myself not pick up the chemistry book again because I KNOW I won't be able to study and actually LEARN anything else at this point. Oh well, I'm not too worried, this test will turn out as it pleases and I'll just have to face it right on when I sit there at 8 am tomorrow. Hence... I'm off to bed :)
Thanks for being here for me always sweet girl <3
Right now I can't even remember the basic alcohol molecules because my head is filled with the song from my last post. So pretty :)
Soso - look at this photo and take me back there for a minute...
I am seriously having a "what am I doing" moment here.. I study, I sleep, I talk to Trevor, I work, I go to school, I study, I sleep, I eat, I work, I clean, I study, I work I talk to Trevor, I eat, and occasionally I hang out with friends inbetween all that. I'm having a "omg I want to get away from this and go have FUN"-realisation. Sure, I have fun with my friends in school. Sure I love talking to my bf over skype. Sure I enjoy my jobs and I learn a lot in school...
Someone come save me from habits and senioritis!!!
Quote from someone on fb... pretty good one though, worth reading!
"I am an exchange student. How do you know what is a dream if you never accomplished one. How do you know what is an adventure if you never took part in one. How do you know what is anguish if you never said goodbye to your family and friends with your eyes full of tears. How do you know what is being desperate, if you never arrived in a place alone and could not understand a word of what everyone else was saying. How do you know what is diversity if you never lived under the same roof with people from all over the world? How do you know what is tolerance, if you never had to get used to something different even if you didn’t like it. How do you know what is autonomy, if you never had the chance to decide something by yourself? How do you know what it means to grow up, if you never stopped being a child to start a new course? How do you know what is to be helpless, if you never wanted to hug someone and had a computer screen to prevent you from doing it. How do you know what is distance, if you never, looking at a map, said “ I am so far away”. How do you know what is a language, if you never had to learn one to make friends. How do you know what is patriotism, if you never shouted “ I love my country” holding a flag in your hands. How do you know what is the true reality, if you never had the chance to see a lot of them to make one. How do you know what is an opportunity, if you never caught one. How do you know what is pride, if you never experienced it for yourself at realizing how much you have accomplished. How do you know what is to seize the day, if you never saw the time running so fast. How do you know what is a friend, if the circumstances never showed you the true ones. How do you know what is a family, if you never had one that supported you unconditionally . How do you know what are borders, if you never crossed yours , to see what there was on the other side. How do you know what is imagination, if you never thought about the moment when you would go back home. How do you know the world, if you have never been an exchange student?"
Seriously - I can't even talk right now... But if I could I'd call someone and make them do something fun. All I can wish for right now I guess is for something EPIC to happen...
Happy Valentine's Day!! Thanks love for making it my best Valentine's ever <3 Everything's wonderful with you. And thanks everyone who deserves a hug and a heart from me. Today is your day and I love you all <3
I'm so glad and thankful for every day that I wake up and you are there to say good morning and tell me I'm beautiful. I'm so happy every time I get a little message from you saying you miss me. I'm so thrilled every time I get to talk to you and we both laugh till we can't breath. I'm so comfortable in telling you everything. I'm so grateful for your patience as you never stop listening to me. I'm so curious what the future might hold, but right now I'm just happy for you, for us... and I'm so lucky <3 Love you always Sweetie. Thanks for another year in my life. Happy Birthday!
Being home and being sick, I spend my time watching old episodes of tv shows that I used to follow. Recently I have caught up on Medium, which my mom and I used to watch together every Tuesday night when it was on TV at 9 pm. I miss that. However, in one of the episodes I came across this monologue by the oldest daughter of the show, given to her younger sister who acts as if she doesn't care her older sister is leaving for college in a few hours. I thought - with me being standing on the edge of high school looking at all the possibilities... it was an appropriate monologue to put in here. And besides - it is beautiful. Enjoy!
Lately I have just had so much to do that there's been no time for anything really. At least it's winter for real, with snow and pretty flakes covering the sky and swirling through the air. I do love this part of winter, the pretty christmasy snowfall.. and I am way excited about sportsbreak coming up in just a few weeks.
How can I even enjoy February when I'm at home, in bed, sick and miserable? hopefully not an awful round of the notorious February Flu...
BUT I do have Valentine's Day coming up, as well as the 20th birthday of someone special :)
Welcome sweet month of love. February is here! Looking forward to the middle of it, with Valentine's day and Trevor's birthday, and the end of it with Sports break, but till then... it's all just a whole bunch of school work and lots of boring tests and essays to write. I'm soo sick of school right now and Senioritis is getting to me fast. Feeling awfully bored by most things and not very excited about stuff. Guess being semi sick doesn't help either. Ugh, can we just move on to March??
