EEEK!

FINALS ARE NEXT WEEK! Talk about stress! I don't know if I can take this anymore. I submitted my final journal for American Lit today and I'm so glad that is turned in. One more Human Growth and Development exam, one more paper, answer endless questions to raise my virtual child 7 more years, one American Lit test, finish my Sociology project, and forensic anthropology stuff to do! EEK! This semester has been a drain and dragged on for to long. I have most of my stuff turned in just a little more to go.
But besides all of that I was glad to wake up this morning with the sun shining, still not warm enough to just roll my windows down and cruise, just give it time. Seeing the sun shine bright is a step in the right direction! :)
With all of this reality starting to set in of the semester ending I only realize that my high school career will be over before I know it. :) I can't wait I have wanted out of there since Junior year. If the the school did not mess with my credits I could be out of there already! But Glad I stayed another year. I got another year of college paid for by the school district so what is there to complain about? But besides all of that I leave in 54 days for boot camp! Pretty stoked! Could it come any faster?
This Saturday I will be taking part in my last DEP (Delayed Entry Program) Olympics! YES! One more to go and I'm done, no more working out for me :(
Well wish me luck for today! This nightmare of finals has only begun as well as my entire adulthood.

May! Snow storms?

It is the first of May, which starts the time of shorts, tank tops, swimsuits, and 90 degree weather...I think Colorado missed the memo. It is SNOWING! Colorado also missed the memo of Spring this year too. Every week of April we got some kind of snow storm, but all of winter we hardly got any snow. This is crazy!
Today there will be no jumping into my car, rolling the windows down, and cruising to school. Instead I get to put on a heavy coat, brush off the snow from my car, turn the heat up, and shiver to school. This is not cool!
Colorado, I love you. You are my home state, where I was born and raised. But seriously? We obviously need to work on your communication and get you a calender.

Through out the years

College is a drag!

Since I was a sophmore in high school I have been taking various college courses. Sophmore year I only took AP classes and it wasn't to bad. Junior year...is when reality started setting in. Even though I was only a junior in high school I got the opportunity to attend the local comminuty college. I only took one class that fall, Introduction to Literature, and rather enjoyed it. More than one class is when it started to get to be to much. Spring semester that year I was still balancing all of my high school classes, music, and winterguard. And I still decieded to take two classes at the community college. I rather enjoyed my classes and passed both with an A. But there were a lot of late nights that semester, some nights I would not sleep at all just to get all of my work.
Now that my senior is about to end I am realizing a lot has changed.
Fall semester I took an AP class and a dual credit class at the high school and two classes at the community college, along with an internship and attending technical college. Spring semester I am taking a full course load at the community college, technical college, and working two jobs. This reality that I always have to better myself in education is getting to be way to much. I take all sophmore college classes that demand way to much time that I do not have. Sometimes I wish I dropped some of these classes but now that the semester is almost over I REALLY wish I dropped at least one so I could be doing well in my other classes.
But a little late for that now.
In just two weeks I have to some how manage to raise a virtual child for Human Growth and Development Psychology, write several papers for Sociology, finish American Literature, and finish Forensic Anthropology. Not includuing all my finals...
College is a drag. College is a life sucker!
