An actually good day :)

School was kinda boring today, yes. It always is. But, after school was better :)
We had a quick meeting about the GT trip on Friday to the Franklin Institute. Collin was supposed to be going with me, but since he has tests that day, he's not going. Oh well. Hopefully I'm with somebody I can stand. lol
And then we had our DuPont meet against the staff members.....


there are the majority the students on our team.....Yea, we lost. Big time. Urg. Well, you win some, you lose some. I guess. lol

Once that got done, Collin and I went to Applebee's to meet Jen there cuz she wanted to celebrate me getting on drive team and Collin making back up driver. :) It was a really good meal, and of course, we got dessert afterwards :) We each had one of those shooters, the chocolate mousee ones. Jen said there was too much chocolate. I looked at her like she was crazy. LOL Tho, I couldn't finish hers AND mine off....lol Oh well. :)
After that, we went to Fashion Bug against Collin's protests. He was not happy to be there cuz Jen and I were taking forever. lol :) that and he was stuck in the bra section. LOL Which again, made him go crazy. I picked out a pair of jeans I liked, and Jen paid for them, which was soooo sweet of her. I think I thanked her about a million times. Cuz we took longer than we expected at Applebee's and then also at Fashion Bug, we left there later than we meant to. lol Time flies when you're talking! :)
Collin drove me home after that and he wanted to play with Google


Look! He's kinda smiling! lol Google was biting his hands and arms, which makes him laugh like crazy. We're going to video tape Googly biting Collin one day to show Mr. Hinde that yes, Collin DOES smile and DOES laugh. LOL :)
He ended up staying here later than he probably should have. Like, he left here around 7:20 ish......Which was not good. Hopefully he doesn't get in trouble!
It was a fun day after school got done. Thank god. :) and I can't wait to wear my new jeans tomorrow! lol :) Jen, if you're reading this....THANK YOU AGAIN!!!! <3

Pictures from DuPont meet

Josh, Zack, Mike, and Brent were our varsity people....Gotta love them! Oh, and that's Mr. Gallagher's head and Mr. T's. lol T is the bald guy. LOL


Going left to right starting at the bottom: Addam (we added the extra D in his name during youth group one day lol), Brent, Josh, Angelina, me, Collin, Mike (since technically he was on the top row), Zack, and Mike N. We were all the people that went tonight. Notice the matching shirts. lol


All of us again. For some reason, Mr. T took two pictures on my camera and I think only one on Lina's. lol Oh, and notice the coke cans of the three boys in front...They had them all facing the same way. And we're going to crop that part of the picture so that will be in our yearbook this year. LOL


Left to right starting at the bottom again: Addam, Brent, Josh, Lina, me, Collin, Mike, Mr. Gallagher, Zack, Mike N., Mr. T. Gonna miss Josh, Brent, Mike, and Zack next year! They're seniors and are graduating. So, this was our last official match with them. =[ And next year, our seniors will be: Collin, Angelina, Mike N., Bonny, Carly, Cara, Faith, April, Amber, Tyler, other Mike (I forget his last name lol) and a bunch of other people I'm sure I'm missing. Addam and I are the youngest. lol Only two sophomores on the team. And they tried calling us freshman tonight. Or, Josh tried calling me one. LOL

Thursday fun?

What can I say about today?
Collin picked me up for school today. Can I just say that I love him driving?? Haha I can't wait until his car is done now and when he learns how to drive stick. It will make me sooo happy. Like, for once I wasn't bouncing up and down every few seconds, and the ride didn't take 25 minutes. God, gotta love that.
School was kinda boring. Tomorrow we are gonna start disecting the pig fetuses in bio. Tho, I'm skipping that. Not skipping the class, but I am going to the library to work on the same stuff they are pretty much, but I'm not cutting into the pig, nor am I sitting in the room watching. Thank God. lol
After school was done, Collin and I came back to my house for alil bit after getting gas. Thank god I had the $20 in my purse still and I hadn't deposited it into my bank account yet. Of course, that means $20 less that I have for my prom dress, but oh well. I'll get the money some other way.
We went to school at like, 3:30 again to go to the DuPont play-off match and then finals. We ended up losing the play off to Woodstown. VoTech beat us too. 12-17-22 or something like that. Woodstown then lost to Shalick. Poo on Shalick!! LOL
Once we got back to the school at around 7:30 ish, we drove to robotics. I found out on the way back to PGHS that my aunt is in the E.R. in Salem cuz she is dehydrated thanks to having a stomach virus for 3 days. =[ Poor Aunt Potsy!
Kinda worked on a few things at robotics. At around 8:50 ish, Collin gave me a ride home since my mom and grandfather went to Salem to pick Shannon up from working (yes, she actually worked today!!) and to see my aunt.
And now I'm exhausted. Something is up with my sleeping time or something, cuz no matter when I go to bed, I wake up multiple times in the middle of the night. And it'll take me a while to fall back asleep. So, I'm only running off of about 5 hours of sleep each night or so. I actually passed out on the way back to PGHS from Pittsgrove Middle School. Collin was really sweet too cuz everytime I'd wake up to see where we were, he would just tell me to fall back asleep cuz we weren't even close. He also kept telling me that he'd wake me up when we were getting really close. So, I did get some sleep in. Not much, but some.

Fun fun?

I've missed a few days on this....I have tried to keep up with it. But, life has been crazy. As usual. Haha.

Sunday was kinda uneventful. After church, my best friend Rachael and her brother and mom came over for the Eagles game. They brought their Wii with them, so we played games on there while Jenn and Mom watched the game. We made sugar cookies, and Rachael and I decorated them in Eagles things.

Monday was boring, but good. That was the first day I got to see Collin during school and know that after 3 hours I would get the chance to hug him again. Knowing that totally helped me get through each class. My bus even made it home before Shannon's did for once. I tutored Kristen, but this past week she had no problems really, so for half the time I was tutoring we were talking about science fair stuff. =] Once I got done my homework, I hopped on Chief Delphi for robotics stuff. Once my mom got home and was actually awake (she and the cat fell asleep on the bed for about half an hour) we went to my grandmom's for dinner. And after dinner, I was flipping channels, and Star Wars was on Spike! It was the 6th one, which I don't like a whole lot, but Star Wars is HUGE to me. haha. I prefer movies 1, 2, and 3 over the others. But like I said, Star Wars is awesome. Getting to watch it made me so much happier.

Today was a normal Tuesday. We had school today, and nobody showed up for us to tutor. So, Mrs. S told us that we could stay as long as we wanted, just to turn out the lights and close the door when we leave. We waited for my grandfather to get there, and Collin was messing with this program called Scratch on Mrs. S's computer. My grandfather got there, and then we went back to our house. Collin pulled this plug outta my wall that has been stuck there for about 6 months now. Then I did my math homework. It took less time than I thought it would, so once he was done his homework, Collin grabbed the slinky and we tried to get it to go down the smaller set of stairs in my house. They were too wide, so we tried my bedroom steps. That worked...Until the cat decided he liked the slinky too. Hahaha.

Robotics was actually interesting today. Denise brought dinner tonight, and it was really good. We didn't do our usual team meeting like every other night, so I was kinda happy. I had the team update with me, so I kinda did want to have the team meeting. Oh well. After dinner, Aaron gave me and Collin some math stuff to figure out for programming, and we tried to....It just didn't make sense really. So, tomorrow we're gonna go to DuPont for alil while, and then go talk to Mr. Lower about it to see if he can help us out. It'll be good for me too cuz I have him next semester for pre-calc. =]
So, that's how the last 3 days have gone. Pretty boring actually. lol

Tonya and Denise.....Guess how many more days.....=]





2 more days til he goes for his driver's test!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =]

I thought everybody would like that =]

DuPont meet

Ok, so we had a DuPont meet today at Salem VoTech. JV lost (I forget the score) and it was pretty weird without Collin there today. Varsity lost by one point. So, now we're 3 and 2. Better than Salem's. Last I heard they were 1 and 3....lol
We stopped at McDonald's on our way to VoTech. This is the picture we got of Mr. T playing this game they had there:


Don't he look funny??? Haha He was trying to kill Ron cuz it was a Harry Potter game. He thinks that Ron should have died. So, he was going to kill him. LOL

I'm off to robotics soon once my uncle gets here. Fun fun? I'm gonna be the only student doing programming since Collin isn't coming and David has bowling practice. Oh, and Shannon isn't coming today either. Remind me to tell all 3 of them what happened tonight lol

Ah, my full day today.....Bler

Today was a VERY long day compared to the past 5 days.
In health 10 (first block) today we had a chapter 7 test.....It wasn't too hard, and on the vocab test we took a few days ago I got a 100....So, I should have aced that test. Haha. That and we went over the answers before we took said test.
Honors Bio (second block) was so easy today. We watched a video about the human genome project and then we got called down for an assembly with this guy named Reggi. He's a comedian, and is soo funny. He'll have the entire auditorium laughing one second, and the next you could hear a pin drop in there. It happened MANY times today. He talked about stuff that really actually hit close to home, and some things had alot of us almost in tears. Unfortunately the assembly was only for freshmen and sophomores. So the juniors and seniors didn't get to hear the stuff he was talking about. Once we got back to bio after the assembly, there was like, 5 minutes left, so Tyson just let us talk.
After bio got done, I walked down to Cerrito's classroom like I always do since I have lunch directly after bio gets out. I stood outside of Cerrito's classroom like always talking to Collin about what had gone on so far in my day. I told him about the assembly and how I was like, so close to crying during parts of it. I tried explaining it to him, but the bell rang just as I started to get into it. So he had to go into AP US History 2 and I had to go down to lunch. Lunch was pretty uneventful except for when John and Jess got into this HUGE argument....Never fun.
Third block was long. I never thought I would ever be happy when algebra 2 got done, but today I was looking forward to it. We were doing all new stuff, and it confused me to death.
Honors English 10 (fourth block) was actually easier than I thought it was gonna be. We did our Error I.D. like we always do at the beginning. Then we did part of the vocab packet for this week. She told us what poem is due on Friday, and then put on this video Julius Caesar. We watched about half of it, and then everyone who was gonna get a card got called down to the auditorium. Cards are like, these special things for people who keep good grades and don't miss lots of school. There is a red card, white card, and blue card. Red is 97-100 average and maximum of 2 attendance infractions. White is from some number to a 96.9 average and maximum of 2 attendance infractions. Blue is not the best grades ever, and no attendance infractions. While walking down to the auditorium I realized that Collin was in the hallway ahead of me going towards the auditorium as well. I decided to go annoy him during the assembly. But, just before I tapped his shoulder, he saw me. There went my surprise. Haha. Collin got a white card, and I got a red card. YAY for us! =] When the assembly was over, and I went back to English, we all finished watching the movie and that was pretty much it for the rest of that class. Haha. =]
After the bell rang, Collin and I met up like we always do, and instead of immediately having to leave so he could catch his bus and I could catch mine, we walked to Mrs. Santaniello's room since we tutor in there Tuesdays after school, and now we are adding Wednesdays and Thursdays. There was only my friend Makaila to be tutored today, so he went into the room next door for DuPont Academic League practice. I helped Makaila with the rise-and-run thing in math, and after about 15 minutes or so, she left. So, I returned my long overdue library book and went to DuPont practice. Collin and I stayed there for about half an hour, and during that time I answered 2 questions right....YAY me!!! =] my grandfather then picked us up to take us home so we could go to robotics later.
We got back to my house, Collin and I grabbed my favorite movie, A Walk to Remember, and went into the living room and started watching it. Midway through we both got hungry, so we ate hot pockets and made fun of my sister. We resumed watching it. I did a few chores around the house when I was told to do them and then again, would continue watching the movie.
At around 5:10 ish my grandparents arrived at my house to pick me, Collin, and Shannon up to take us to robotics. We got there and immediately started doing stuff to get ready for build season. At first Collin, Duran Duran (it's a nickname for this kid at robotics), and I were filing metal to weld it later on. Then Collin was told to get the new control system out and take inventory of it all. Once all the filing was done, I helped Collin put the control system stuff away and then we were told to start figuring out the wiring and stuff. Mind you our old wiring person graduated in June. So most of us don't know what to do. I was reading the manual on how to put it all together while Shannon, Collin, and Duran Duran were grabbing the stuff and attempting to figure it all out. As of right now we have about 1/6 of it done. And it all has to be figured out by January....Oh boy!
We all signed up to do different teams once build season starts. Collin and I both wanted to do programming, and since we were the first two to sign up tonight, we got what we wanted. Boy were we happy. Then we realized that we had to sign up for 2 things. Shelby signed me up for the updates on the manual since they come out on the FIRST website and I can get them easily since I'm always on the computer. Hey, what can I say? The interweb is fun. =]
We got information about a new fundraiser we're starting today. It's a South Jersey Robotics team credit card. If you want info on it, please check out our website. I would give out more info on here, but I'm still trying to understand it all. Our website is http://www.lunatecs316.org. If you do sign up for a credit card, please contact me when you activate the card cuz I will get $50 towards my fundraising goal for each card activated that I sell. We have to raise a minimum of $800 by the end of the year, and I'm only partially there. If Shannon wasn't on the team, I know I would be very close to the goal. Haha. But, since she's on the team, we gotta split the money we raise in half. So please help us out if you can! =]
And now I'm just sitting here bored. Well, not totally bored. My loving boyfriend was complaining to me about some things, and then when he realized that I am/was reaching the limit of my stress, he immediately stopped complaining and told me to start talking to him about my problems. He had me tell him all the things that are bothering me most right now, and then he told me to elaborate on one thing in particular. He let me get everything I needed to off my chest, and he didn't once complain. I'm so glad I got over my ex and realized that Collin really has been there all along for me. He's simply the best ever <3
So, there has been my day. Hope you enjoyed reading about it I guess. haha I'll post more after DuPont Academic League practice tomorrow
