Here comes the sun

My junior year of high school is over, and i am now considered a senior. WOAH. It honestly seems like yesterday i was walking into LCN with a nervous smile and big eyes not able to take in everything at once. Things were so much different than middle school. The hallways for one, were my least favorite part. At my previous middle school, we had pods. A pod was like a horseshoe per each grade. Each one a different color; red for 6th grde, green for 7th grade and blue for 8th grade. In each pod were all kids in your grades lockers, and all of your core classes. So you never had a huge rush because it was most likely your grade in the hallway and that's it. I remember the first day of freshman year, i walked into the building with Sarah standing by my side and we first noticed the noise. It was SO loud. We walked to each others lockers, and then went our separate ways to class. Like middle school, we thought we would be able to meet up in between each class. I had algebra, and she had English. Both on different floors, and we quickly realized that meeting between classes wasn't going to work unless we wanted to spend lunch together at the tardy table also!

As senior year approaches, i'm getting more and more ambitious to see how it goes. It's bittersweet, really. All these years of hard work, determination, a little bit of procrastination, and pain but in the end, i'll be walking the stage and receiving my diploma with some of the best people i know.

It crazy really, to realize that it's going to be here in a snap of a finger.

I've been rambling for what seems forever on the topic of my senior year. I just cannot believe that it's almost here. On one hand, i'm super excited because of all the fun everyone says senior year has to offer, but i'm also sad that graduation will be the last time that all of the kids i walk the stage with and i will ever be together in all reality.

The last day of school was the best. My two easiest exams; creative writing and Spanish. And then the last hoorah with my friends for a little while.

The day started off with probably the best gift i've ever received in my lifetime, because it was completely me. 100% me. And i'm SO excited to start getting my mustache obsession on at my grandparents (:

Then, a group of my friends and i ventured over to Menchies; which for some of you older people on here, is a fro-yo place on 26 mile and Van Dyke. It's one of the busiest places ever to be at. It was a lot of fun though (:  From there, we met up with the other half of the people and made our way to Stoney Creek. At first, we sat in the cars for a few minutes because it was raining a little, and after about 15 minutes the sun came back out(:  We were there until really late and it was just a really fun day (:

Summer doesn't feel like summer yet. It feel like memorial weekend or something, it's mostly the weathers fault.   Today's Monday and i'm already bored out of my mind and can't stand being sick.   We were all dumb enough to go swimming at Stoney when it was 55 degrees out, and now 3 of us have colds. It's one of those colds that just makes you feel icky, and your nose is always stuffy and it's hard to sleep. It has just now started going away, but fishing yesterday was a pain because every 2 minutes i felt like i needed to blow my nose.

Today, i'm getting ready to go into one of my last shifts at work, it's weird. Over time, i've mostly hated my job but it does have it's benefits. I have made a few good friends from there, a few. Most of the people there, i dislike very much because of the way they live their daily lives, and because of how much i know about their personal, personal lives.

I've been getting ready for my grandparents, between packing and picking dates to be back for orthodontist appointments (which after 5 years i'll be getting off this summer!!!!).

I've thought about all the free time that i'm going to have at my grandparents, which will be a lot and i've thought of somethings i want to do to keep myself somehow occupied. I'm going to be making sure to blog once a week. And my goal is to read at least ten books this summer, and then blog about them, which will  be easy for me (:

I think the part i'm looking forward to the most would be waking up and going fishing every morning that i want to. Because my grandparents live on a lake it will be literally walking out into the back yard. All i have to do is untie the boat and take it to the middle of the lake for hours, and just stay out there for as long as i want. I just bought recently a new fillet knife for fish, the one my dad used was getting pretty dull, so i can't wait to put it to use (:  Plus, one of my favorite parts is that i will be sosososoooooo tan this summer!:)

I'm looking forward to this summer, and hoping it will be as relaxing as i think it will be:)
