Congrats Sapphire! That's awesome. I knew you'd do well :)

Exactly. I'm taking my test soon and it seems really nerve racking to have someone grading you. Especiailly since I mix up my lefts and rights quite a bit, and have this weird thing, where if I make a mistake I'll start laughing even when it's not funny at all. Somehow I don't think the person grading the test will think turning accidentally left instead of right on a one way street is very funny... That's something I would do :anxious:

Just found out they are going to stop publishing Nintendo Power magazine. :(

I haven't read it in ages and ages but when I was a kid it was the awesomest thing ever. I blame the internetz.

Life is moving so fast and I'm excited about it! \:D/ Yesterday I opened up a checking account with a debit card and registered to vote, tomorrow is my college orientation, the day after I have an appointment to test drive a car, on September 5 I'll become a leader in our church's kids program for 4-5 year olds, on September 9 I should be starting a new position in the Technology/Media department at work, and in between all that I have 49 thank-you cards to write regarding my open house. :mad:

Life is a dream. A freaky, nerve-racking and intense dream, but a dream nonetheless. I feel like I can't pull this off without God, and I suppose that's a good feeling to have.

School is starting soon, and we're probably going with this new curriculum, where you actually interact with this teacher, and they make sure your doing your work, and call your mom if you aren't. They give you writing assignments and stuff, it's all online. Plus, before you start, you have to do this diagnostic test so they can figure out where to put you, and what level your capable of. I don't want to slack off anymore, and be on the internetz while doing school, 'cause I want to be smart and everything, plus I want to go to vet school, so I'm happy,
My brother's computer broke down, so I have to share my mom's laptop with him. I love him and all, but he's a bit of a computer hog.

That's all that's happening in my very exciting life.

iPads are cool but it's annoying to type more than a few words with them. :(

Heh, I get you, AE. I'm moving sixteen hours away from home to attend a Bible college for a year and I spent two hours yesterday writing and rewriting lists of everything I'll need. No fun. :( Now I have to start getting it all together, but I don't have any boxes to put anything in yet, and I still have to find out if I'm taking some stuff like shampoo or buying it when we get out there... *mutters* And I have no car to go anywhere to get anything and I'm the only one at home.

:panic:

Today, everyone in the school got a Macbook Air. Not sure exactly how well going to 1-on-1 computers is going to work but we shall see. Other then that school has been pretty relaxed because I have two study halls until Monday when my online AP US History class starts. On a side note my dad and I surpassed 4 tons of honey tonight. We probably still have half a ton left to do but we are pulling everything off now and treating the bees.

I know college is hard but I'm so ready for it to start so I can stop preparing for it. haha! Off to go pack more before bed! Tomorrow's the last day before lift off and still so much more to do!

Ahhh.... Jo always likes to do things the conventional way, ya know. Doesn't everyone find out they're going to college three weeks before it happens? heh...

Speaking of college, I am very late in getting my classes (and even admitted in the first place), and it's kind of iffy on some of them even getting into... not good. >_>

Do you use the Macbook Air for books so book expenses aren't so high? You guys have a honey bee hive? That's so cool! =D>

I have two friends who are going to join me that evening \:D/ We shall sit and eat popcorn while watching the first episode of the new season :inlove:


Meanwhile, school has started, and I had to wake up at 3:30 AM in order to finish my assignments before my co-op meeting at nine AM. >_< And then I got in trouble for dozing during a lecture. Ah, life is fun \:D/

They''ll be on the internet the next day, or at least hours after it airs on TV, Termite.

I'm in the same boat as Trixie; I watched all the other episodes long after they had aired. So this is my first time watching it live! (or semi live, I guess :D)
