Friday Five!

So, I'm totally stealing this idea from Sarah Dessen, but I have always loved this idea, and I feel like this will be a great way for me to actually update this... Haha so here we go!

1. I did start that book review blog! It's named A Kid's View. akidsviewbookreviews.blogspot.com. It's doing relatively well. I haven't been able to read the book that I'm reading right now since I'm not even in the state right now. So hopefully when I'm back, I can get it finished and lost a new review.

2. Speaking of not being in the state, I am visiting Clover right now! I got to drive down here in my mom's Subaru (180 miles, three and a half hours all by myself)! I was nervous about it but it turned out well. It was fun actually! Singing in the car all alone and everything with the windows down and what not. Perfect.

3. I know that because it's summer that I shouldn't be talking about school, but it is just so weird because I'm a senior and all. I signed up (originally) for AP psychology, AP English (year round), yearbook (year round), Spanish 2, physics, and discrete math. I recently dropped AP English and signed up for Spanish 3, I feel like it'll be more beneficial this way for me.

4. I ended the semester with three B's and an A, despite the fact that I was homeschooled for practically the last two months. How awesome am I? Answer: very.

5. I really want to dye my tips red. But at the same I feel like I'd hate it after a while. I tried chalking my hair, and I absolutely love it. So maybe I'll just do that every so often and what not but then I would get tired of doing that. Ugh. First world problems.

Have a great week!

It's Official!

As of yesterday at around 4 PM, the Holly Springs High School class of 2012 walked across their stage and got their diplomas. That also means that as of around 4 PM yesterday, I am official a senior.

I am a senior.

I am a senior.

Is this really already here...?

No, because I really have to wait until August 27. But I'm alright with that.

It's just really weird though, to think that I'm a senior. I texted my brother saying, "How does it feel knowing that your baby sister is a senior now?" He was class of 2007. Forever ago. So now (even though it's June) I'm thinking about SATs and colleges and everything that goes along with it. Do I want to go to Wake Tech first then transfer to get my teaching license? Or should I go straight to Winthrop or UNC Asheville? Or even UNC Wilmington just for creative writing? IT'S TOO HARD. But luckily, I do have time. Yay!

It sucks though, because I have to wait until I take my SAT in October to apply to any colleges. At least I think. I should check that out... Stupid car accident still messing me up.

In three days I'll be driving (my first long car ride alone!) to Clover for half a week! Yay! So excited. I'm just glad my parents are letting me drive. Hope that goes alright... three 1/2 hours will be so interesting alone. At least I can blare the music and sing along without my mom glaring at me... hehehe.

So, I also just realized that I haven't posted any new pictures lately. Here are some!

Prom group! I'm on the far right.

Me and Becky just messing around on the webcam, right as summer started




Those are really all of the latest pictures... haha. Oh, and by the way, I GOT PHOTOGRAPHY EDITOR FOR YEARBOOK NEXT YEAR! Schweet (:
