What kind of student am I really? And more or less....what kind of person am I???

Even since I got my application for NHS, I have been wondering if I will actually get it. Honestly, I really am not sure if I will or not. I make decent grades and everything, what else to I have to say for myself with being a good person over all? Do I actually deserve this? I really want this opportunity, I really do. It would mean the world to be, but do I deserve it. This year I have been really trying hard to be involved, and I absolutely love to volunteer and help out, but I wasn't able to do much before. Does this mean that I am not good enough? That I don't deserve this? I'm not sure....but I turned in my application and all I can do is cross my fingers and hope that I will be given this honorable opportunity.... :)

Time for change.

I am the person that is always waiting till last minute. What if I can't necessarily help it? I work a lot and when I get home I have just enough energy to eat and pass out. This sounds horrible, but it's true. I wish that I could get everything done days in advance, but I do things last minute that need to be done then, not in a few days. I know this sounds horrible....but really it's sadly true. I don't want to be like this anymore!!! I want to be a great student like I know I can be, I just don't need to work as much. I want to change, and I don't want to be a procrastinator anymore if I can help it. I can say this, but I need to find an efficient way to carry out my plan. Does anyone have any ideas for me???

Many things on the mind...

So, after Christmas Break everything seems to fly by. Not to mention the fact that everything seems rushed in school with teachers trying to cram a lot in your head before the year is over. This can seem very overwhelming and stressful. What makes it even more stressful though is everything happening at once. For instance with me it included; Work, Prom, Mayfete, Cama, Key Club, Other Clubs, finals, papers, test, ect. I am getting stressed out even just thinking about it now :/ . There is nothing I can really do about this though, except brace myself for all this and try chewing a lot of gum for a stress reliever. I have also found out that it is worth it. I wish I could have done more stuff when I was in 9th and 10th grade, but now that I have a job and can pay for a car and gas, I have the ability to do many things, this including extra curricular activities. This is my main focus starting as of this year. I want to be involved, it's fun. I regret that I couldn't before, even though I couldn't help it, but hopefully this will change. I hope I get into National Honors Society as well, but if I don't, I will just try even harder to be able to next year. :)

Snow Days....or shall I say Ice Days???

So, this week, the only day we attended school  was Monday. The funny thing about this is that many teachers thought nothing of this storm that caused all the fuss. Little did any one now what would really occur when this storm hit this part of the country. Many had no power for days, while others still don't have power and were told that this could go on for a week or more.... I feel awful for this people that have to go without the power! Hopefully they are taking advantage of the shelters around town, and taking care of their families in times of need. This storm made a huge mess out of our yard, with huge tree limbs all over the place! Also, we didn't have power for a day, but that no where compares to the people that are still without power almost 5 days later. This storm was very devastating, as well as many were not as well prepared for this. Maybe it's the fact that people just got tired of the meteorologists telling us we would have awful snows, and end up having none. Also this goes to show, did anyone here about snow for Saturday? Because I sure didn't, but on my way to work at 3:30 in the morning, it was snowing, and snowing pretty good!!! I sure wish I could have a job where I could be wrong 99% of the time, and still have the job!
