I'm not worrying.
Why are you worrying so much?
Just live a tiny bit.
Merry Christmas,
I hope you have a wonderful year.
2010 will be fabulous.
You've got to believe it!

It's one thing when you have not what you want, but when you lose what you had, that's the worst. You are overwhelmed. You would do anything to have it back to how it was when you wanted more then what you already had. But in perspective, you were probobly equally unhappy both times.

This is often relateable to my life, mostly through test results, but I've recently had a friend who's gone through this. And I just wish that things like this didn't need to happen, but they do need to happen. We need to make mistakes, because we need to learn.

It's Saturday night, it's mid-october, it's cold, it snowed today, i'm home, getting sick, and I should be out having fun or something.
But at the same time it's ok. It's just when I am home I feel as if I should not be home. Anyhow, i'm not out, and that's the end of that.

I'm half-heartedly writing a french speech on a topic (chosen by the french teacher) on teenage issues, which is the dullest of topics, because while brainstorming I have realised that in some way, shape or form, I have seemed to already share my opinion on all of these issue with people. And now I must stand in front of the class and talk about what everyone already knows. Terribly boring.

Anyhow, my life is quite good right now. I have noting that I can rightfully complain aboput except the fact that I have very little-no money, which is always a bit of a downer, and another reason why I am in fact home writing this tonight. But, that is in fact what I get for going to the UK this summer.

In other news, school is fine. I fill my free periods with "group therapy" (we talk about everyone's relationship problemes, mainly one guy's, who's relashionship problem may in fact be resolved), guided mditation in the far stairwells, and shameless gossiping.

I have very little of interest to report. Little shop of horrors was amaizing, pope productions party was fun, gym party was nice, cancer climb was fine, okokok.

First impressions

So, school if great!
Running for student council.. fingers crossed on that one!
Tried out for band, quite the non-success.
On the rowing team, which I LOVE.. 9am practice was fun, and good to actually run, got to get back in to that.
Back at dance- so nice to be back!
Volleyball starts next week.

IB:
Music (eek- everyone in my class is a musical genius)
French (interesting, good class)
English (also really interesting, awsome teacher... a little scary)
Histoire European (great class- hard to pay good attention, but really funny)
Math (so far so good... really good teacher...thank gosh!!)
Biology (so far we looked at goo... typical, all good though)

Math tutoring and flute lessons hopefully otg very soon!
French quiz this week.

Met some new people. I think i'll end up being really close to certain people simply because they're in all my classes and have all my free periods. But that's ok! :) I had some people over last night for waffles, which was quite nice.

Music project!
Au revoir

The day before school-ish

So tommorow's the first official day of school
Technicly just an assembly.
I don't understand why I'm so sad.
I liked this summer, and I'm not ready for it to be over. I'm not ready for the inevitable stress. I wish I could be more optimistic right now. But I just can't.

Maybe tommorow

re-group/ changement d'avis

these words don't come easy

I know that when you're a teenager, people say that everything feels like it's the end of the world. And we can all be dramatic sometimes, anbd blow things dramaticly out of proportion. But that's ok. I love people who are always a little bit wiser than you, always a step ahead, always insightful, but incredibly modest and understanding and selfless. I am so thankful for having a really good friend like this. I probobly take it for granted too often, but I don't know what I would do without this person in my life, I honestly don't. I know I'm so lucky, I really am. All of us are. We all have friends who love us and appreciate us for who we are and what we contribute to eachother. We are comforatble with eachother, and trust eachother, and love eachother. Although it's not always obvious, I think we help eachother through everything. I don't always go to the same person for everything, but we all know eachothers strengths, and everything seems to balance itself out.

I just love my friends so much, and I'm just so greatful to have good friends, and I know that everntually, we weon't be as good of friends. But right now, this summer, I love the amaizing friends I have, and at this point, can't see how i'd get by without them. But I get that goes back to being dramatic again. Huh.
