WOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I finally start driving school today! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm almost seventeen and don't have a permit, but I will soon! HAHAHA!!! Well, it starts at 3, and it's 2:30 now. I'm waiting for my brother to get home, cause he's using our car. Then, we'll be on our way!

Yeah for Anoop!

Okay, that was just mean! The American Idol judges scared that poor boy to death! When the said that Matt had made it, I thought, "Well, I'm happy for him, but I wanted Anoop to make it, too." I was SO excited when they told him that they decided to make it a top 13 this year! WOOH!

Test Your Sanity

I'm getting this off of my mom's blog...
The statistics on sanity is that one out of every four persons are suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you.

Writer's Block

Don't you hate it? (Writer's block, I mean.) The story I was writing "My Own Meadow" isn't going so well. It's a good foundation, but nothing is happening with it. Oh, how I wish for the muse to decend!
So now, I'm sitting at the computer blogging and eating mashed potatoes! Yum.

Random things I wonder about...

What did Yankee Doodle call "Maccaroni"?
What if the Hokey Pokey really is what it's all about?
If fairies come from baby laughs, what happens when a fairy laugh?
Why are people scared of bears, but they think that pandas are cute and fluffy?
Does the male kangaroo ever have pouch envy?
Why did the cow jump over the moon?
Why are clowns creepy, but everyone likes a good court jester?
Why do we drive on a parkway, but we park in a driveway?
If all the raindrops were lemon drops and gum drops, would they be raindrops?
What makes penguins so cool?
Why do I wonder such random things?

YUMMY!!!

Okay, I just had the most AMAZING drink ever. It's called Cucumber Lemonade. (Yes, it does sound gross.)

1 Cucumber, peeled and cubed
4 cups of water
Lemon juice and sugar (I actually used Country Time mix. Just enough to make two quarts.)

Puree the water and cucumber. Add lemon juice and sugar (or mix) to blender and mix. Enjoy!

Um...

Okay, last night a bunch of people from our church went out to eat for a lady's birthday. I wanted to go, but I knew that I shouldn't have. I was right. Well, first of all, I still have this migraine, and that is a VERY loud resturaunt. Like, half of the kitchen staff came to sing Happy Birthday VERY loudly. It was funny, but it really didn't help me.
Next, yesterday was my "Veggi"versary, the third year of me being a vegetarian. And this place is a steakhouse. Yep. Not fun, especially since there are heads on every inch of every wall, and in the lobby, there is a BEAR! It was so gross. (My friend Ryleigh named one of the deer heads "Gigi"! lol)
Well, now my headache is STILL not going away, and I just would like to scream!!!
That's my news.

I love things like this!

Headache Update...

Well, today, my mom and I went to the doctor. He believes that this is a sinus headache, and he put me on an antibiotic. Also, I had a blood test done to make sure that all of my levels are good. I have had Polysystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) for about a year, so they have to make sure that all of my organs are working good. Also, my Doc refilled my Metphormin. This will, hopefully, prevent me from ever getting diabetes. A side-effect of PCOS is diabetes. Since I'm also not the smallest person and have diabetes in my family, I have a high chance of getting it. Hopefully, this medicine will do its job. Also, it will help with my weight control. I hope that this antibiotic will stop this migrane and fast!
Well, I think that dinner is almost ready.
Good Night, Fellow Humans!

I Am...

I am.... Stealing this idea from my mom's blog! lol
Outside My Window... Night has hit here in DFW. It's warm, but not too hot. It's just right. (Oh, earlier, two ducks landed in our pool. I've gotten used to this at this time of year and I love them. But, the surprise was looking over to see the HAWK sitting in our backyard! Isn't that insane?)
I am thinking... of how much I want this headache to go away.
I am thankful for... the Lord Jesus dying for my sin, and for my family.
From the kitchen... comes the loud noises of my parents cooking dinner.
I am wearing... our youth group's shirt and some coulottes.
I am creating... a story and several projects.
I am going... to eat dinner and then watch E.R.
I am hoping... that my graduation will go smoothly.
I am hearing... the tv playing in the living room.
Around the house... I see people who love and care for me, and a beautiful boquet of roses my brother bought for me and Mummy.
One of my favorite things... a beautiful rainy day!
A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week… Schoolwork, going with people from church to dinner tommorrow night for someone's B-Day, calling my BFF to wish her a happy B-Day, and celebrating my third "Veggie"versary!

Ah, the pleasures of migranes!

Since Sunday night, I've had a horrible migraine. I hate to complain, but it really hurts! I used to have very frequent migraines, but they stopped- until Sunday. I just am praying that it passes very soon. My parents are watching the Presidential Address message on Fox News, but all the applause on TV just makes my head hurt even more. lol
Well, I'm very bored. I probably shouldn't even be on the computer right now, but I'm bored. I was just watching 18 Kids and Counting, but it went off. (I love that show!)
Oh, have you seen the movie Fireproof? I finally saw it this past Saturday night; it is SOOOOOOOO good! I loved it. If you haven't seen it, I really recommend it.
Well, have a great night, Citizens of the planet Earth!

Projects, Projects, and... need I say more?

Okay, you know how, in public or private school, you work really hard your junior year and kind of have NO responsibilites senior year? HOMESCHOOLING IS NOT LIKE THAT!!!! Last semester, I did eleventh grade and had maybe two projects. Now, I'm taking all senior courses, and it is nothing but PROJECTS!!!!!!! For example, I have to do a Patriotic Project about one of the founding fathers. (I chose Patrick Henry. You know, "Give me liberty, or give me death!" guy.) Also, I have that recipe report I already talked about. Now, I am also reading Macbeth. I am so tired of projects! GRRRRRR!!!!!!!!
Oh, I also have Vocation Project for Composition. I have to write a report about what I want to do for the rest of my life, have someone in this field fill out a questionaire, and other things. For the past few years, I have felt that it is God's will for me to be an elementary music teacher. I went to Fort Daniel Elementary school when we lived in Georgia, and I recently e-mailed my music teacher from there and she happily filled out my questionaire. I'm actually excited about this project, because it will help me as I'm in college and starting my career.
I probably should start working on my projects right now... I think I will!
