Catching Up

So, I totally haven't posted in a while. I know, I suck.... I'm hoping to make up for it now, okay?
I'll give a quick overview of what has happened in my life before going into further detail.
1. HOMECOMING!!!
2. I am positively OBSESSED (or infatuated as Kacey would put it) with the Jonas Brothers.
3. I reconnected with Sara, a friend from my old school.
4. I tried incorporating visualization exercises into my nightly routine, and was rather impressed with the results.
5. Volleyball season ended. :(
6. I decided to play club volleyball! Woo!
7. I took a To Kill A Mockingbird final exam.... and passed!
****MAJOR LIFE MOMENT****
(not my final.... read below)
8. I took my Civics final today... Ah!
9. I just talked to Crystal, another girl from my old school.
*Somewhere in there, I had a dream about a gentleman in my French class (Marcel, hehe). Come on, you know you're interested.

Okay, so Homecoming.... Into the Outback.... It was.... INCREDIBLE!!! I had so much fun! I danced with several people, including Kacey, Jerome, Fazzio, and Marcel.... Jerome and Fazzio were probably the most.... unique. Haha. I'll try to post pics of post-homecoming-decked-out me. See, I don't have a camera , so I couldn't take pictures, unless I took them on my phone, and I can't really scan those into my computer now can I? So, my mom bought a disposable one today, and we'll probably take some pictures using that and I'll do my best to post those, okay darlings?

Hehe. Infatuation. What an interesting word. Hannyloulou would use it to describe me, I'm sure. So would Kacey. And I'll admit it. I'm infatuated with someone. I really want to tell them, but.... I don't know if it would work out. I want to be friends first. We'll get there someday. I'll just do my visualizations. :)

So, the Jonas Brothers.... Their lyrics really are amazing. And they're so talented! And.... HOT! I can't Yeny it. Infatuation people. I need help. Hehe.

Yup, so Sara and I were talking on im and she's really good. I miss her and most of the people from my previous school. I wish I could be with them right now. That would be so incredible! Someday we'll all be together.

My current Health teacher, Coach Mosh (name has been changed to protect her identity, along with my previous health teacher) took over for Coach Platte when Platte went on maternity leave. I like Mosh a lot, she's wicked funny, smart, and easy to talk to. She gave us homework on Tuesday: Write something you would like to achieve 10 times, then read it and say it to yourself 10 times every night, and to imagine doing that thing 10 times before we went to sleep. So, as a student that enjoys homework, I was pretty happy to comply. I wrote "I am a fantastic hitter" 10 times, repeated it to myself, and did the visuals. I also threw in a few "I am an amazing passer"s just for good measure. Which led me to Friday, and our last volleyball game of the school season.

I was pretty darn excited. The Lightning had beaten them, and we crushed the Lightning twice, so the odds that we would win were pretty good. That we only lost one game all season was a contributing factor as well. :) I was all geared up and warming up for the game by doing the hitting lines, and I HIT!!! And they were pretty good hits too! My passes weren't too shabby either.

We kicked the crap out of the Coyotes!!! We totally won! Our team was so incredible! We were so tight, and played so well.... It was amazing. I was on the most amazing natural high afterward..... Hah. Our volleball teams were just amazing this year. It was truly an incredible experience to play for my high school.

Yes, after Friday, volleyball season ended. I'm a little sad, because I don't see all of the people on my team very often, but that's okay.... I've made some really good friends this season.... Kacey is one of them.... Sorry, drifting away.... I'm thinking about Thursday night.... Hehe!

I have decided to play club volleyball. I'm so INCREDIBLY excited!!! I really want to make the 15's team with Kacey and Hannah, and I hope I do. I have faith in myself! I am a fantastic hitter. I am an amazing passer!

Yup, I took my TKM final. It wasn't too bad. I'm pretty proud of myself. I think I did a reasonably good job. I'm glad I reread the book at any rate. I had forgotten a lot of the plot, and it was good that I refreshed my memory. I learned a lot from Harper Lee's writing style, and it'll help me once I finally get my novel going. Again. :)

On Friday, my mom came sprinting up the stairs and said something in a rather breathless voice. Upon my request, she repeated herself: "Dumbledore is gay."
Now, at first I thought she meant the actor, Michael Gambon. Fine. If he wants to live that way, he should be allowed to. But I was mistaken. The Harry Potter character Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore is a homosexual. I couldn't believe it. That's so strange. Not the "he's gay" part, he's free to choose any lifestyle he wants, just the way JK Rowling said it. She was so blunt about it. It almost seemed.... dare I say planned? It appears to me that she simply made Dumbledore gay just to keep her celebrity going, which is downright ridiculous. She doesn't need to do that. What about McGonagall? Is she going to turn out to be Dumbledore's adopted daughter? And Snape was his great-great-nephew? It's just nuts! Dumbledore and McGonagall need to be together, along with Harry and I. That's the way it should be. AND Neville and Luna. What's all this tosh about Neville and Hannah Abbot? She's not that important to the story, and Luna and Neville need each other. Plus, Neville seems like the kind of guy that would want to keep his family together, so he wouldn't teach at Hogwarts for 10 months a year while she managed the Leaky Cauldron. Positively ridiculous.

I'm glad I got that off my shoulders.
Moving on.

Yes, I took my Civics final today. It wasn't as bad as it could've been (thanks Mr. Fulton). I'm pretty confident that I got most (at least 95% of them right.... spelling on some though.... ARGH!) if not all of them right, so it's all good. :)

Yup, I talked to Crystal, and Dilly, and Cara! Yay! I miss them!

So this dream about Marcel....
We were mini-golfing in a dark room, and our golf clubs were made out of legos (weird, I know), and suddenly we're at a dance. It's still dark, but smoky and disco-ey lights. And my friend Celeste is there. She's holding the end of a rope that's wound around me.... And Marcel is like "Can I dance with you alone?" because Celeste was following me around. Then she had to leave because her mom would get mad that she was outside her house.

Any interpretations? Anyone?
