ahh...the bliss of summer...

yeah. right. my first official weekday of summer break and everything is sooo confusing. i woke up this morning to angry phone messages from my stepdad demanding why no one is answering the phone. my mom is nowhere to be seen...so i wander around, investigating. i find her outside, with my brothers, playing with the ground. so i go back in, grab the phone, and demand she call my stepdad because he, apparently, has something important to tell her. so she gets on and tells him to leave her alone because she's digging. oooookay...so my stepdad comes home for lunch and goes and asks her why she's digging. apparently, she doesn't have a reason. she just wants to dig a hole. yeah. welcome to my life. isn't it just completely logical? see why i can never be normal? i mean, my mother digs holes...for fun...and my dad is off somewhere, being all computer-geeky, playing a song, or...well, he doesn't do much else...
oh, yeah...life after high school is starting out beautifully...well, i should go...

And now comes the eventide

so my last day of school wasn't as completely devastating as i thought it would be. in fact, the only times i almost cried were when i read kriegy's little message and when mrs. durbin started to cry...school today was pretty normal, really...except for the inordinate amount of hugs i got...now, off to the wonderful before-college-summer where there will be much working and contemplating of existenc-ness...yeah...
oh! i took off from school about twenty minutes early so that angela, jennifer, liz, and i could go and see The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. very good movie by the way, even though there were some deviations...but they were good, really, and made the whole thing just a tad more in depth...there was, of course, the typical hollywood romance going on (just a teeny bit...three glances, a rescue, and a kiss), but it was okay. speaking of, caspian was very sexy...
well, anyway, though this be the end of the AP class, i shall continue on with my blog, even if the updates come further from each other than before...
well, bye all!

The Last Days

so i have two more days (not including the graduation practice crap)! yeah...and they continue to go by like a snail trapped in amber. but wait! apprehension is setting in (like, i'm gonna trip on my way to get my diploma, aren't i?). isn't it wonderful? ah, but i still have to go to work.
haha...debbie, my boss, asked me if i was going to work full time this summer. ... ... ... like hell. no WAY am i going to work full time when that place sucks the life out of you in just four hours. sure, it'd be nice to get benefits. but i'm not willing to be in the hospital all the time to get them (it'd happen, i know it would; those nursing homes have all kind of random illnesses floating around, waiting for a young person to pounce on). besides, i'll probably be quitting halfway through the summer anyway. as i have no car and am probably getting a job on campus, having a job in blairsville would be idiotic. not to mention annoying to anyone i roped in to driving me (probably angela or liz. poor things. they drive me around enough as it is).

all right. onto the juicy bits. the AP test. I can't tell anyone anything about the multiple choice...EVER (but i think i can say that i thought them easier than the lit questions). And I can't discuss the essay questions until friday (really, what do they think our teachers are going to do in that two-day after period? hunt down our essays and change them? quick e-mail the questions to their study-buddies in other states?). but i will say that i think my strongest essay was my synthesis essay. i feel pretty good about that one.
what sucks most about the AP test (you mean besides the fact that it's so long so early in the morning?). well, we won't get the results back until july. that SUCKS. really, we deserve immediate results just for showing up.

well, i suppose i should stop where i am; i have to put icing on two more cupcakes and then they'll be ready. bye!

wait, here's a trivia question: what's worse than having the AP exam first thing in the morning?
A: having two japanese songs (one in which "PEACH" is yelled out a billion times) and "rebelde" stuck in my head while taking the AP exam.
