Lately I have been really stressed out. Im not exactly sure why though. I just cant fiund the problem no matter how hard I try to figure it out. Its like im stuck in a serious bad mood which rarely ever happens cause im usually the person thats always happy. This has been taking a huge toll on my life because poelple think im mad at them or dislike them just because of my attitude. Its like Im drained of enthusiasm and happiness. This doesnt mean im never happy because I am but its like its only for a short amount of time. Yesterday I went out on our boat and suntanned and I think it was the first time i was seriously happy in the past week. Im still confused as to when im not in a good mood but im hoping to figure it out soon so i can be happy. (:

Lately I haven't been doing my homework right away, instead I've been going onto the computer and go onto Facebook for a while and not pay attention to the time. I have been trying to get rid of my habit, but it doesn't work. I know that most students do their homework before doing whatever they want to. I just can't give that a try because I get distracted really easy. I know if I do my homework first and correctly, I can get my grades brought up and stop getting anything lower than a C on my report cards. I hope that I can stop my bad habit and start a new and better one. If I can stop getting distracted I might be able to get all A's if I put my mind to it.

SUMMER!!!!
I can not wait till SUMMER!!! There is so many things going on that it is unbelieveable!!! My friends are going to come up and spend alot of time with me and my family. Every year we have this BBQ. It is really fun because I get to see my dad's pals and talk with them. When they come up they bring their kids and it is fun because I do not get to see them alot. Hopefully this year my friends that live an hour away can come. I at least know one person is coming but her sister can not.
:( Her sister is going to Chicgao for something. It actually makes me sad. Plus this summer like right when we get of school one of my favorite movies is coming out. My friends and i planned a trip to go and see it. This summer is going to be a Summer to Remember!

I am not looking forward to the speech we have to give. I like speeches when its about something fun. Doing a speech on a person who made a difference in society just doesn't seem that fun. At first i was really excited to do a speech for the last project, but now i am not. I wish we were doing a speech on something more creative. Something that is about our self. For this project i am hoping i can find a person who has recently made a change in the world. I don't want to do my speech on someone boring. Overall I just wish that we could do a speech about something different, but since we have to do it on a person, i am going to pick someone interesting.

Recently i've been figuring out that i'm a very very very jealous person. I know i always have been, but not this much. I don't know why i always get so jealous. It always causes me to get mad at people espcecially my boyfriend. Then i start to get frustrated and disliking whatever happens. I don't mind being a little jealous, but sometimes it bugs me when i get like this. I know this summers going to be a big deal about all of this. So i decided to make a commitment to myself and have a different way about thinking about things. Hopefully this stops me from caring too much about everything .

I am trying to stay concentrated on school so I don't get out of concentration before finals like everybody else. I also like the last project we did. I cre about animals a lot but I think I care even more because I learne a lot of facts. Doing different projects like that keep m interest instead of like wriing papers. I also am not super excited about the speech. I am pretty sure the impromptu speech may not help a ton because I have given speeches and I know that I don't like them. I am only ok at them when I have them planned out. I am getting more exitced for summer because i go to Makinac each summer for a family reunion and it is really beautiful and a lot of fun. I do hope it isn't too hot this summer.

On Tuesdays, I usually have conditioning 3-4 for lacrosse, then the actual practice from 4-6 and then club volleyball practice at 7-9. I don't go to the conditioning because I have too much going on in my day and it's pointless to go workout for 5 hours after a 6 hour school day. So today I went to practice at 3:45, my usual time but when I got out of my brother's truck, my team was practicing on the field and not conditioning. The first thought that went through my mind was that I was screwed because I got screwed up with practice. I get to the field and I asked why we weren't conditioning and my friend KT said because Sean, the conditioning coach, wasn't there yet. So we stood there and did nothing for another good 20 minutes until he came. I ended up having to do the conditioning and I was wicked pissed because I don't go to these on purpose and then I had to do them. My main coach then wasn't at practice so my team sat down and talked for 15 minutes. I was so mad because we have the first round of Regional playoffs tomorrow and we're wasting our practice time talking! Then the assistant coach comes over and says that they are letting us out at 5, which is an hour short. By this time I wanted to punch someone because we needed to have a serious practice because if we lose tomorrow, then our season's over, just like that. The whole practice we just scrimmaged which was soooooo pointless because no one pays attention or even tries. Not trying to be a Debby Downer but tomorrow we will probally lose because my coaches are dumb and don't know how to run a successful practice.

Lately I've been thinking about friends and what friends do. I know it sounds somewhat weird, but just hear me out. I have this one friend who uses me, at school she doesn't talk to me but outside of school we're "best friends". I'm thinking that she's using me and I'm getting frustrated. So I've started talking less and less to her and now she's noticing. She came up to me in school today and said, "hey we should hang out soon I miss you!". I said, "well we kind of have to talk about something.". I told her that I really can't stand being around her anymore because all she talks about is her boyfriend and her. She said that she doesn't and that I'm just trying to make up an excuse for not being as cool as her, and she walked away. She texts me after school and said that she was sorry for being mean to me and that she didn't know that her talking about him all the time upset me. She said that she was going to work on it. So I saw her at a softball game today and she was talking to me like nothing happened. It's getting so frustrating!

Things have been going pretty well for me lately. I've been happier then usual, despite my sickness. I've just been very optomistic about things no matter what is going on. I've been finding out who my true friends are, and who will always be there for me. The biggest lesson that I've learned latley is that whatever will be will be, and I just need to take the good with the bad. I've been okay with whatever goes on in my life these days and I wouldnt change anything for the world. I've learned that some people are different then I thought, and I just have to deal with who they really are. My free time lately has been used very productively, creating a big rise in my GPA. I just have a feeling that this summer is going to be amazing, just by how the end of the school year is going. This summer, I want to have the most wonderful time I can possibley have and meet some new people. I've just been lovin life lately, and I don't want this feeling to go away :]

Today I missed school to go to the dentist. My tooth has been hurting a lot lately. Most of the time I can't drink water without it hurting. I went to work with my mom since she is a dental assistant. They had X-rays and worked on my teeth. They couldn't find why it was hurting so bad. They finally looked really hard at the X-rays and saw that the root was separated. They said that if it still hurts for a couple of weeks then they are going to have to look at it again.

June 18th my Cousin Matt is getting married down in Georgia and we are all so exited for the wedding. it is going to be at a lake house and the wedding will be on the shore of the lake and then the next day there will be a BBQ. My Cousin Matt and his Fiancé Emily dated for 10 years before he proposed. He propesed to her by making her a scrapbook for christmas and the very last pasge was a picture of the ring and said will you marry me? and then she looked up at hima nd he got down on one knee and she that she was his everything and he couldn't live without her. It is really cool because Emily already feels like one of us. She is always bubbly and so much funt o be around and she is her self and very caring. Matt and Emily are like one of those picture perferct couples. When they got a place to move into together, it is a very nice house in a nice neighborhood, that was built for them. they hae a dog named oliver, they got him right after they saw marley and me. and 3 cats, one is a stray that they have food and a bed for outside. Then they both have great jobs that pay very well. I have never seen them fight out of the time they have been together, when it comes to a decdition they work things out to benifit both of them and what is best. And to top it all off, they just look perfect when they stand next to each other.

Today felt way too close to summer for their to be school tomorrow. This weather is so teasing, how can we still have like 3 weeks left of school? Just by the way the end of this year is going i think this summer is going to be so much fun. Today i got to go over to my friends house and hang out on the lake. We swam, layed out and just chilled till everyone had to go home. This preview of summer has me so anxious to finish school. Sorry Ms. Agne but this sppech is probably the last thing on my mind tonight.

Summer is almost here! I am soooooo excited. This weather is just pumping me up soo much. All i want to do lately is swim or lay out in the sun. My favorite things to do in the summer are go tubbing and just be out on the boat. It is so much fun. At night, I like to have bonfires and listen to music. It's such a nice way to relax after a long hot day. I just can't wait until summer!

I feel like i need to be out of school. Im physically and mentally ready for a break! Track is almost over, but i still have 2 weeks left (one week longer than most because of states) and then right after school gets out i start cross country training. IT NEVER ENDS!School has been frustrating lately. Im too lazy to do my homework because i cant focus, adn then it ends up sitting in the back of my mind all day.

Here's another one of my poems since some of you liked the last one I free blogged.

Wonderwall

Driving down the expressway, I am a passenger in the back seat

As I keep my eyes peeled out the window, I find an abstract interest in the other travelers driving along side me

Where are all of these people going? Where are they coming from?

Will they exit this path before me or after me?

Some of them in dress clothes, some in sweats

Some loners, some with their families or a group of friends

Some on the phone or singing, some white knuckled, shuffling through their day in thought

Are they having a good day?

Are they from the general area or have they been driving for hours to fractions of a day from state to state?

I spy some and wonder if they are intoxicated

I spy some and wonder if they are even of legal driving age

Are they?

We will never know all of the answers, but it never hurts to wonder and open your imagination

Having an imagination isn’t just for children

Open your mind

Driving down the expressway, I am passenger in the back seat

And I wonder if I am the only one analyzing everyone else

So I love the kind of friends I have. I'm a very versatile person and I get along with just about every kind of person. I have friends that are very sweet and innocent and almost childish. But then others of my best friends are complete stoners, and other school inappropriate words. Then everything else in between. I don't know exactly what category I fall into. I have a friend for every need I could possibly have. Friends that I can be silly with and act like a kid again, friends I can talk seriously to for hours, and friends that I can go out with and have just a good carefree time. Practically all of my friends are my best friends, I just feel so strongly for all of them, I would do anything for anyone of them and I know they would for me as well. =]

summers getting real close. im finding it hard to pay attention and do my homework because im so sick of school. my grades are getting worse and worse but im finding it hard to care. i just want school to end. teachers should take it easier the last month. i am gana miss all my friends here at school, but this summers gana be great now that i got a car and my license. im doing real bad in math now. mostly because i cant listen to my teacher ramble on all hour. so i end up missing all the information. we have done the same thing every day of the school year in math. warm ups, notes, home work. its ridicules. cant do it anymore haha.

for tonight's blog i will talk about the upcoming football season. i just recently started to play football and i like it very much, the week after finals is when we start to train. 3-4 days a week we have to wake up at 6:45 and workout till 8:00 2-3 days we do speed and conditioning and the other days we do weight lifting. I like the time of these because then i don't waste my summer doing a particular thing and have time for the rest of the day. a reason i don't like this is because it requires me to get up early and in summer you sleep in. we don't have to do this but i am playing varsity next year and need to be stronger faster and more agile. overall i cant wait for football so i can hit people and feel like i accomplished something.

Lately, I have been out on the lake everyday enjoying the nice weather. It has been so nice out and it is terrible having to still go to school for a few more weeks. It has been sweet just going out on the boat fishing all day and it it sucks having to still wake up at 6:30 to go to school. But still only a couple more weeks isnt too bad and I'm just pretty excited to have summer come. I can't wait untill I can just do whatever I want whenever I want and it can't come soon enough.

Well, this week marks the end of a productive baseball season. We play in a crossover game against Novi tomorrow. Then, we end the season at Milford on Thursday with a doubleheader. I'm hoping we can take the last 3 games and start off the summer season with a bang. I think our team has gone an extremely far way since we first started back in March. I think i have gotten mentally tougher after overcoming a slump and i think our team can fight with the best of them. We have been in close games all season so i don't think we are threatened when it comes to close games. I hope we can take the last 3 games. Wish us luck!
