i'm bored.
i'm ready to leave and get out of here.
there's only so long that i can stay at my house, "enjoying my free time" before it becomes boring time.
i'm ready for a change or scenery and to be on my own.

it's slowly but surely hitting me that i'll be in college soon.
but i mostly just wanna get out of my house and go to cape canaveral soon. lol

can describe how awesome this past week/weekend was.

wednesday when we first drove down to lakeland, i was with a bunch of middle schoolers and thought "this will be a loong trip." but it actually turned out amazing.
wednesday night i got to see a bunch of my SSTP friends and hang out with jay back at our hotel.
thursday judging went pretty good. 1st round of judging went alright, and 2nd round was better. this day i was starting to make better friends with the other public school kids i was traveling with, and have a good time with them. i also got to meet some pretty cool people that were around me during judging.
that night was the mixer and had a blast again hanging out with my SSTP friends. and then again with the kids from my region as well. that night was really lax since we were done with judging and all. and rooming with Amy was awesome.
friday morning i got the eat lunch with the capital region and then head over to Orlando for MAO state. it was awesome to see people again once i got there because i hadn't seen them in a while.
i took my first topic and individual tests, which went alright. but i didn't care too much :-\.
then back to Lakeland to go to the awards ceremony for SSEF. i thought it was going to be boring at first but it actually went pretty quickly because i was usually in the line waiting for an award or knew someone in the line, so i was anticipating their award. plus, i still hung out with my region, whom i was pretty close to by then. even the teachers i was close to by then, and they were sooo much fun.
plus then i got my $500 special award from the Society of Mining, Metallurgy and Exploration, which i didn't even know i was up for! and i got my 4th place finish in engineering. (higher than the other two kids from my region in engineering (who had beat me at the regional competition), including the guy who's going to ISEF for our region (who didn't get anything, btw)).
it was an amazing feeling, knowing that i placed 4th and got a cash award.
plus it was amazing seeing all my friends also place in their categories.
after the award ceremony, the teachers and kids from my region gave amy and i little gifts and cards because we were their "seniors" which was soo sweet of them and they didn't have to do. i really did have an awesome time with my region.

then i got to head back over to Orlando and arrived at the double tree right at the end of the meeting that night, and got to announce to, at least half the kids, that i got 4th place and $500. which was extremely satisfying.
saturday morning we got up early and took our next two topic tests. again, i didn't care for them much, but did decent anyway. it was also fun hanging out with the senior girls inbetween tests, and getting ready for the awards night for like 2 hours. lol. i think we all got closer on this trip. even the guys too. i think the seniors got a bit closer.
plus, us devising a plan that day to prank the guys room from last year. and using our magic and sweet skills to place maxi-pads all over their room :-) and everyone's priceless expression. lol
we got 5th in the state, and freed was kinda mad. but when you looked at the score sheet, you couldn't blame the seniors because mu had placed in their topic tests and individual and bowl round. the blank page was alpha (which, we can see because they are crazy and don't study anyway) though it was fun during the ceremony making fun of all the kids walking up onto the stage and commenting on their outfits. lol
that night was the senior meeting, and really wasn't that bad.. after that all 7 senior girls slept in
the suite and stayed up talking til like 3:30. i enjoyed that a lot.
friday we woke up and went to City Walk for lunch. i went to Hard Rock with patrick, gaku, and jeremy, and had some good pulled-pork sandwich.

never did it really hit me during MAO state that this was my last state, until the bus ride home. Clara got food poisoning from her lunch and for about an hour she was in the bathroom on the bus throwing up. once we got to the rest stop, we all pitched in to try and make her feel better. i felt awful because i knew she felt awful and everyone else was around her and you don't want to show your weakness but you can't help it, and you feel horrible, but you can't do anything about it, and so you just feel worse. so me, kavi, candace, and noli all helped her. by getting her food and soemthing to drink and calling her mom and taking care of her. once we got back onto the bus, kavita and i sat her down, and she just said how grateful she was that we were helping her out and how she's going to miss us, and then the three of us just started crying. and i realized just how much i am going to miss them and the three of us and how close we've become and in any time in need we're always there for each other. and then we started laughing because we were all crying. it was only really at that moment on the bus ride, but i realized i'm going to miss them and us so much.

this weekend i realized how many friends i do have and how no matter how long you haven't talked to someone or hung out with someone, you can still be great friends. like my sstp friends or even some mao friends.
it was an amazing weekend, and definitely needed, and i really don't want it to end. (in addition, i haven't done any school work in 5 days. so i have no idea what i missed or what i'll have to make up when)
i also have 10 days to decide where i'm going to college. i'm following kavi's tip and hopefully looking at some more standings will help me decide. :-\

best of both worlds?

2008-04-07T15:27:00.003-05:00

i wonder about who my friends are sometimes..
like..
i enjoy having my friends and that they're smart and that we are all pretty down to earth and not bubbly and flakey - most of the time/most of us.
but that also carries over to other aspects as well.
prom is coming up and people are deciding whether they want to go or not... some people say flat out no. while others are still iffy.. though, there are still more people that don't want to go than that do.
i enjoy being friends with the upper percentage of our class, but i also enjoy having a good time and going to prom or football games or such. however, i don't really have any friends that feel the same, so it's sometimes hard to enjoy myself at those events..

prom is coming up... and i pretty much going (i have a dress and everything). there's a group forming that i was invited into, and it would be pretty fun, but i'm not best friends with them. my hope is that some of the smart people will join the group as well, so that it wouldn't be completely awkward.
most of this plan depends on who's going in the group.. which is still up for grabs because no one knows if they're going!

the point of this entry was saying that it's hard to find the balance of having smart friends but still having friends to have a good time with at like prom and stuff.
nor do i have a person, i realized. a person that if you wanna do something, you can just call them up and they'll go with you. or it's understood that you'll go with each other to weekend things (or prom). boy or girl, i don't have a set person that i can just call up and hang out with.. :-\

things to find:
best of both worlds
a person

-edit-
being bored and searching around facebook and listening to other people's sb stories/looking at their pictures, i realized why i'm not better friends with the crowd that goes to the destin area for spring break.
so my new question is.. can i find friends that i can have with and still have decent morals? i think i might've found them. hopefully they'll be my group for prom. so much drama is now resting on inviting one person.. :-\ hopefully it'll get sorted out and we'll have a good time.

4th 9 weeks Senior

2008-03-21T16:57:00.005-05:00

welcome to the 4th 9 weeks. when grades really don't matter.

last 9 weeks i had all-A's until the last week, when i thought 3 of my classes were going to slip to a B. Luckily i got them all back up. but last week i didn't feel like i really did anything. i just casually did my work like normal, and still made A's. the only thing that would've brought me down to a B in those classes was that i was missing assignments that i just hadn't done because i was absent. which is a legit excuse.
mostly i just got them to A's so that my mom wouldn't hassle me about them. Although, this 9 weeks i can get straight B's and still have A's on my report card :-).

So i guess senioristis is settling in more now. i forget about homework i'm suppose to do at home and don't look/write in my planner as much now. most of my classes' homework i don't complete at home though. most of the time i do about half or a little more than half and copy the rest in lit or physics. mostly physics.
i think it is a little funny that now some of the AP teachers are trying to "crack down" on cheating. people go caught copying gov, MWDS, and enviro homework. it's funny that this copying has been happening all 4 years, and it's not until now that they're cracking down. i guess now, we've gotten better about spreading information and cheating is more on a wider scale (with Facebook and emailing attachments).
i also think it's funny that some of the teachers actually realize that copying homework is not that much of an offense as cheating on tests. Brennen even told us that he thought he was taking care of cheating on his worksheets by giving a test. lol. after mrs dunlap told him about the cheating of his homework assignment, he gave us a quiz to check if we were cheating once. and hasn't mentioned it since. which was expected.
while mrs BP went ballistic. won't stop us from cheating though. we'll just paraphrase better. lol

with this, i've also noticed that the classes i'm taking this semester/year don't take much understanding. it's mostly just memorization.
last semester i actually had to understand econ and calc 3 to do well on the tests. but this semester, gov is all memorization and diffeq, we just teach ourselves what we need for the homework and make sure we get the right answer (we've only had one test so far). lit - just pay attention. and enviro - as long as you do the hw, you can make C's on her tests.. oh. and physics we just don't do anything. we had one test last 9 weeks that we already had the answers too.
so this copying thing has become more common because we don't need to learn the material for ourselves if we don't have to.
as i said once to Danielle, we're high achieving minimalists.

although, with all this copying and not doing work and senioritis, you would think, i'd have more time. and there are days when i'm sitting at home wishing i was out hanging out with people, but by the time i'm thinking about it, it's too late to call anyone up or anything.
and then on weekends, i would love to take weekend trips to the beach or to some rivers or whatnot. especially now that it's getting warmer. but i looked at my gcalendar, and i don't have another completely free weekend until the weekend after we get out of school:

this weekend - Anchor thing, Drew's party, Easter; then it's the UF invitational; then it's the weekend in spring break, which i'm thinking i'm going to be in DC; then 4/11-12 is relay for life and it's also the weekend before SSEF, so i'm probably going to be working on that; then it's mao state; then it's prom; then 5/2-4 i have free, but it's the weekend before APs so i'm thinking i'm going to be studying for those; then it's the weekend during APs - still studying; then the weekend after APs is my dance rehearsal and recital; then that wednesday, Seniors leave. (of course the weekend after that is also my dad's birthday, so it's still iffy if i could go anywhere. lol)

so my only solution to this problem of wanting to go to the beach, is skipping school one day. which actually wouldn't be all that bad, since, as i said earlier, i don't do anything anyway.
i'm thinking i should go for sure somewhere that monday after APs because i have all AP classes and TA. so... they're not going to be doing anything those days. lol
it's funny to think that you have so much free time, but really, you're still busy. which is awesome. i mean, all the stuff i have planned i'll enjoy. plus, i have more freedom to go out during the week because i don't have as much worry about homework.

i worked so hard jr year. i'm just kinda disappointed i didn't work as hard/taken as many classes the other years. cuz it doesn't seem like it'd boiled down to much. the two colleges i am deciding between, i could've probably been accepted with As and Bs. and even if i did get into MIT, i probably still wouldn't have been able to go because of the money. i'm thinking i'm going to end up at UF because of the money for Ga Tech. it's a great school and all, but it's just i could've made A's and B's and still be in the same situation i'm in now.
although, it's not that bad that i didn't slack off last year, because as i said earlier, it didn't take a hell of a lot of effort to make those As. so it's all good. i try not to have any regrets and make up for it in the present if i do.

this is really long, so i'll sum up, sorta.
senioritis is setting in. and it's fun in a way because it takes away most of my worries.
the cheating thing is getting kinda on my nerves, but it'll soon pass. besides, we're not going to stop, just going to get better.
even though i'm in the same place i would've been doing less work, i don't regret it. i can still have the pride that i made As in these classes. and plus it looks good for scholarship and program opportunities, not just college.
and even though it seems like i should have more time, i'm still busy. but it's more of a relaxed busy... i like it.

now i just have to find ways to skip school... lol

thankful? forgiveness? :-?

2007-11-22T22:53:00.000-05:00

i think i forgive too easily. if i like you enough, all you have to do is be nice, and i'll probably forgive you for whatever.
though, if i don't know you or don't know you well, and you do something to upset me, you're on my bad side until you redeem yourself.
so make sure i like you before you piss me off.

like you. i don't like her. out of everyone there, her? one of the people i didn't like there, and you were one of my best friends there, and seriously? she's annoying. whatever. we barely talk now.

and you. you are my prime example. just can't help myself. as much as i've tried, i can't. i've been waiting for someone else to help me out, but no one has come along.
it's starting to take a toll on me

i've become such a sap. i don't like it. i tearup at love scenes in just tv shows. b/c they're happy and i'm not.

i'm a fucking good person you idiot.

(i'm fine, i promise. this is between myself and me, you can't help, unless you're you and decide to change which is not going to happen. so no, you can't help.)

For Nick

2007-09-01T22:45:00.000-05:00

i'm not quite sure what to think of Sr. year yet.
these first two weeks have been good, don't get me wrong, but idk how long that'll last. i've had this feeling that i can do just about anything, or get away with just about anything. (of course, that "getting away with anything" feeling got my car towed on tuesday, and i've been more careful now)
i have the feeling of "if i can just make it to here, i'll be good. now, if i can just make it to here, i'll be good. now.." etc. and again, i really don't know how far that'll take me. i've also been going more on instincts, and whatever i feel like at the time. it's not like i'm skipping school or anything. more like, when it comes to doing homework or something, which most of the time i don't want to do. and it's been alright these 1st 2 weeks because i haven't had much hw and i can continue my summer habits. but i'll probably get more soon, which won't be good.
but of course, i'd love for this to go on and be able to balance school work. i love the spontaneity of it.
this is probably all part of the mentality that i just want to get out of high school, send off my college apps, get accepted somewhere good and be set.

there's a couple science things i'd like to do. but that also means more work. which, right now i don't want to do. lol. but i know i'll regret it if i don't. of course, since i'm doing it my sr. year, it won't get on any college application. unless i win something before nov or jan. and idk if that'll happen. my top 3 schools i'm summiting my app before nov, so any science awards wouldn't be on there. it would mostly be for scholarships and personal satisfaction. and trust me, being surrounded by some really smart people, i would love some personal satisfaction in the science category.

i need a boy. it's been too long.

the cliche SSTP entry

2007-07-28T22:51:00.000-05:00

so i wrote an entry earlier about the 1st 3 weeks of the program and thinking back on it, i don't think i was enjoying myself as much as i had expected.
and, i must admit, that kinda continued when i got back there. all up until the last week or so. the last week and 1/2 were the most fun. i actually started hanging out with more people and getting close to them. we really started to realize how much we could get away with and how much the counselors started to lighten up.

the last two nights were the best of the entire program. probably because we were done with everything those nights and had no responsibility left and the fact that we stayed up all night - only one of them did we actually have permission to. and i'm glad that those will be my lasting memories from the camp.

so, what all happened the last 4 weeks (starting 4th of july week) :
saw fireworks the night before the 4th; free day july 4th; saw transformers; did our midterm orals; had our costume party (i was pippy-long-stockings/wendy's girl); went to magic kingdom (which doesn't have enough rides to keep you occupied for 11 hours.)
movies with nick; beaty's trashcan catching on fire because someone threw a burning paper towel (or something) down the trash shoot; having a kinda lame pool party; going to gator nights; going to Busch Gardens and having every ride stop for 1/2 hour because of the lightning
watched HP5; played pool at the reitz with nick and kevin; went out to sonny's with kevin and katiana; reserved my copy of HP7; bought my costume for HP7; had the formal dinner and dance at a Holiday Inn; stayed up for the midnight release of HP7; had our first free saturday; got mediterranean food and hookah; more pool at the reitz with nick and kevin
having lunch/seeing nick and kevin for the last time in gainesville; natasha and i preformed our amazing salsa dance at the talent show; sam, danny, and podo preforming at the talent show; kiss from a rose on the gray at the talent show; mel and i skipped our practice oral for the yale information session; found out my results/conclusion for my project was wrong and had to change all of it in my powerpoint, poster, and paper in about two days (i had to get extensions on them lol); gave our finial presentations; snuck out and stayed up thursday night and ended up having a slumber party with zach and jay in zach's room; said goodbye to my lab; had the awards ceremony and professor reception; stayed up all night with a crazy dance party.

this doesn't include all the times we snuck guys in our room to hang out. or how after a while, i just stopped signing out. and driving with nick and kevin so many times but only telling the counselors like twice. i'm sure there's a bunch more, just can't come to mind right now.

oh yeah, awards ceremony, i won:
best poster (out of my study group - there were 8 study groups)
and outstanding presentation (out of the program - there was about 20 of them)
the outstanding presentation award nominates me for JSHS, which is a thing in which they pick 20 kids in the entire state to speak and present their project. and there's usually a good amount of SSTP kids that speak, so i'm really crossing my fingers on this.
i'm still not ecstatic about my project subject but i know it. and i can still use it in science fair stuff.

overall, i had a good time and am glad i'm able to bring something away from this. i just really hope i can keep in touch with everyone still.

this definitely goes down as one great summer.

3 weeks

2007-06-29T08:55:00.000-05:00

well, its the end of the first 3 weeks here at SSTP. and it's been interesting.

for my lab, i pretty much sit on the computer all day and i'm suppose to be learning a simulation program to run my lab, but i haven't even seen it yet. so, my days have been spent on the computer mostly checking facebook and talking on google talk. it gets pretty boring after a while.
midterm orals are at the end of next week (a 4 minute presentation of what you've done so far), and i might have enough background information to take up those 4 minutes, but i wish i could talk about my actual experiment.
so that's kinda gotten annoying since, it's 3 weeks in and i haven't started my actual experiment.

lectures every morning is alright. they've mostly been about biomedical stuff, so i get the main point and daydream during the detail parts. and daydreaming is the only way to stay awake during those parts.. the main ideas are good enough because then i can just pick one to write an extension paper on. (which aren't that bad, just some BS and summary of journals. or citing journals and summary of wiki)

the IDH seminars (which are twice a week) are going fairly well. i'm in the Artificial Intelligence one and have realized i will not be working with computers when i'm older. it's all about finding the right method for a computer to follow and i don't think like that. i find whatever method works for me and use it. of course, this class was the only one that was as far away from biology and medicine and had some math in it. the teachers both have accents so sometimes it's hard to understand them. plus they try and teach grad-student level material in an hour - which can be tough. but they did say that if you get over an 80% in the class, they'll give you an A; between 50% and 80% - a B. hopefully i can get above an 80, but idk, because sometimes it's hard to know what exactly they want out of us.
the other problem with the class i have, is the people. some of them aren't understanding the material completely and so just don't pay attention. by not paying attention, they become very rude and sometimes argue with the teacher about futile things. (this happened last thursday and got me really pissed off) other than that though, i am learning stuff about computers and i think i'll learn some programing too, which will be useful later on.

in lab i'm learning how to use linux and some linux commands. haven't done anything else since then (i've just learned the basic commands) but i think i'll be using it more and maybe that'll be useful too. idk. (at this point, i just want to use it)

the people here:
i've noticed, after talking to some people, that i'm one of the smarter ones, which i didn't think would happen. they also are more science-inclined than math. another thing to get used to.
i have to be modest sometimes because i don't want to get what i got at school about being smart and all.. (they thought i was a genius when i said i got an 800 on SAT Math IIC.) i must admit, i miss being surrounded by kids that are 15 times smarter than i am. there are only a couple here, and most of them are the stereotypical geek.
but i've found some cool people to hang out with. mostly my roommates. and our group is definitely the minority there. us girls are all pretty down to earth and chill, while most of the other girls here are very flirtatious, spacey, loud (in an annoying way), and some are materialistic. (the girl from one of the Sweet Sixteen's is here. <- very materialistic). and of course, all the guys are going to flock to them. plus, since you had to pay $3000 to come here, some of the kids here are rich. and don't mind eating out every night or buying starbucks every morning. the sweet sixteen girl said she had already spent $400 so far. wtf? personally, i wouldn't mind cooking my dinner most nights, but it's no fun if you're by yourself. which makes me a bit anti-social sometimes. because some nights i would like to just watch a movie while others want to go out. or play soccer. and soccer is great fun, i just can't do it every night/don't want to. this again, can make me a bit anit-social in meeting other kids.
all in all, so far no guys for Ann yet. there is this very good looking guy here, he's kinda quiet and reserved, but i thought i might still have a chance. of course, then the other day, i found out his SAT score, and stopped pursuing him. now, i know that sounds really geeky-shallow, but, he didn't break 1200.. that says something.. so, no prospects for Ann. but i'm not giving up, there's still 4 more weeks left.. you never know.

i spent an hour in lab typing that up and now i'm home. (that's what i do in lab = nothing. but my study group leader talked to my grad students today, so hopefully i can start something on monday. :crosses fingers:)
one of the best things about being home now: faster internet on my own computer. i'll have to download stuff now. i couldn't before because of my low internet connection in my dorm. but now i can. yay! :-)

off to find something to do - call me before sunday to hang out!

Summer

2007-05-10T21:39:00.000-05:00

When i first started applying for summer programs, i was set on going to YSP. and i also applied to SSTP because it seemed like a good program too, but not as prestigious as YSP.
If i got into both, i would choose YSP.
i got into SSTP. i got wait-listed for YSP.
they asked if i wanted to stay on the waiting list for YSP, and i haven't emailed them back yet. i was just going ask if i could stay there til may 25th or so, but i might just ask them to keep me there, and if i get accepted, just decline. thing is, there's not that good of a chance i'll get in.
however, in light of recent events, i don't think i really want to go to YSP. no offense, but mostly because my friends are going and i'll already know people there.
SSTP i'll get a clean start. no one will know me, and i won't know anyone (that i know of yet). the idea feels refreshing to me. it's not that i hate my friends or anything, it's that it's nice to have a clean slate with people. new friends, new perceptions; you can create what people can perceive you as.
also, if i'm having a good enough time with the people there, that i'm with, i don't really want to think about anything else. that's a nice feeling too. i usually don't like change too much, but right now, it's almost perfect. (of course, there's always the possibility of me hating it and wanting to keep in contact with you guys the entire time.. but i hope that's not the case.)

the other factor is, YSP is more known. it seems a little more prestigious to be accepted into. if i'm allowed in, it would be more highly looked upon than SSTP, it seems. and also, it's what i've been hoping to get into since last year. (although i think mrs brumage sent in my 10th grade PSAT scores rather than my 11th grade ones. and my 11th grade ones were 30 points higher than 10th grade. yeah, biiig difference. oh well though)

that's why i'll just go ahead and do SSTP. i still want to know if i could get into YSP though. But, they seem like similar programs, and i feel i can get more out of the "residential" part with SSTP. might even be better for me.

i really hope this summer is good. last one kinda sucked. also hope i have at least some rest time in there. (apart from lit required reading and starting to look at colleges...)

stress

2007-05-05T12:30:00.000-05:00

i had stress up until the ACT.
then i had a week. that week was pretty nice.
then state. which was fun.
and then school work slapped me hard in the face.
the tuesday i got back, i had a lot of work to make up, and so i stayed up that night. but then wednesday, i had just about the same work load. and that was regular homework.
from then on i've had pretty much that same work load.
last week, i definitely didn't go to bed before 11. i worked on that friday night and saturday morning, before prom. i worked the entire day on sunday on my spanish project and then acids and bases APEX.
this past week, i have worked constantly from a little after getting home until 12. with breaks for dance and dinner. one night i didn't even eat dinner because i forgot to make myself some.
this morning i took SAT IIs, math and chemistry. i answered all on math, but i only had time to check over like 1/2 the ones i wasn't sure about. so, i don't know about that one. i was unsure on more of the chemistry ones :-\. and those i had to think more on, so i didn't get to go back and check as many as i wanted to, and i had more i was unsure about so.. plus, i don't know if i answered all of them. :-\
i'm hoping for at least in the 700's in both..

next week starts AP exams. Stat is on tuesday and Calc's on wednesday. tomorrow will be devoted to both of them. especially calc because the only review we've had is that cumulative review. and i didn't get some of the questions on there, so i think i'm going to go back over that. and then do those stat FRQs and review conditions, definitions, probability and such for stat.
today i hope to start on my lang study book. that's in a week and 1/2, i haven't cracked my book yet and it's probably the test i need the most studying on (and the hardest to study for).
after calc, that wednesday night, i'm going to start on psych cards and continue my lang. then on thursday night i'll pick back up on my studying for chem and do those 15 questions and such.
chem and psych are on tuesday. lang is on wed.
that wednesday night is MAO awards night. so that'll be a nice break, relax, night.
that thursday i want to go to the beach and just not be in school.
that friday, the 18th, is my dance rehearsal. we have to be at Ruby Diamond by like 3. with our costumes and hair done and they prefer our makeup done, but not required. we get out of school at 2:50. wtf?!
Recital saturday at Ruby Diamond: 11:00
Recital saturday at Ruby Diamnod: 2:00
Recital sunday at Ruby Diamond: 2:00
saturday shows are the little kids and i still 4 times in each.
sunday is the high schoolers and i dance 5 times.
so now you have 3 chances to watch! (but come to the sunday show if you can.)
and i am inviting you guys, so please come. i'm not begging you to, but it would be nice. (again, come to the sunday show if you can)

then. i get 2 weeks.
to study.
i take the SAT again on June 2 and i really hope to be done with it by then. get a high enough score that i'm pleased with, and finish taking it.
i then have a week to relax. enjoy
and then June 10th i start UF SSTP. although i hope to go down a couple days before and buy food and stuff.
and i'm there until July 28.
i have 3 weeks of summer to myself then. but will be doing school work and probably starting college applications.

...and then school starts. lol.
yay busy-ness! lol

thank you very much.

2007-04-16T16:15:00.000-05:00

so.. my name got changed on facebook, and i couldn't change it back to just plain "Ann D." so, as you know, i changed it to "Andi Trick" which i thought was pretty amusing.
but i actually wanted my name changed back, so i wrote facebook asking about it. so you know what they do, deactivate my account.
that's right, i can't get on facebook right now because my name is "Andi Trick." in the email they sent me, they said "contact us with your real name, and we'll reactivate your account" meaning i can't get into facebook to just change it myself. so i have to wait for it to get to someone's inbox for them to change my name and i can get back on facebook.
but also, all the stuff i did under "Andi Trick" probably got erased (from what clara said). gah.
i'm overreacting. sorry. i know where they're coming from.
just not everything has been going my way recently and this just piles on top of it.
whatever, i probably have more productive stuff to do. like actual homework. lol
plus dance tonight. :-\

Lee's Place

2007-04-07T11:03:00.001-05:00

so this morning i woke up at 6:30, picked John up and we went over to Lake Ella to run the Lee's Place 5k. we got over there around 7 because Danielle told us the race started at 8 (and we still had to register and everything). well we got there, and no one was there. so we went into Lee's Place and asked where registration was and they were like "wow you guys are early." apparently, the race actually started at 8:45. but we registered anyways, and they gave us our numbers and stuff. so then we were just sorta hanging out, and they were organizing t-shirts. the tshirts were only for the people who pre-registered, but since we were there so early, they let us have one anyway. :-)

met Danielle and others a while later. ran the race. fairly flat. couple laps around Lake Ella and through the neighborhood behind Lake Ella (off Meridian.) i ran a 29:58, which definitely isn't my personal best, but after not running for over a year (and a year ago i only ran the mile at springtime), i think that was pretty good.
then afterwards headed over to Paradise Grill and Bar and had like a buffet breakfast. and got goody bags. Gene Deckerhoff was there and did awards. and then we left.

i might have to start running on the weekends now, after realizing how out of shape i am. :-\ maybe it'll even like clear my head and de-stress me some.

now i still have 2 days full of work ahead of me, but this morning was good. i'm glad i went. i think if i didn't i would feel very lazy and like a complete couch potato.

too late

2007-03-18T23:27:00.000-05:00

SPPPPPRRRRRRINNNNNNNGGGG
BBBBRRRREEEAAAK!

haha. i hope this doesn't go by too fast like i know it will. oh well.
still won't do chem until next sunday probably.
haha

spring break

2007-03-07T17:01:00.000-05:00

spring break is in a week and 1/2. ann is excited!
ann has a test in just about every class in the next two weeks. so ann has to cram and study for those tests. because most of them decide her grade.
too bad she hasn't had a full, serious week of school in three weeks and so now she isn't really caring about school and homework and just wants to sleep. lol

i'm not doing anything for spring break. which will probably be nice. i'll get to relax. and should probably study for the ACT.
also gotta do that YSP thing by the 15
getting my hair cut tomorrow. and going to take myself shopping. just hope i'll have enough time to do hw after that.

i really like this profile picture. and livejournal's. but don't want to put them main-stream like xanga/facebook because i don't like those type of pictures on people's profile.. idk. i put it up because i like how i look.

anyway. dance soon. hw now.

new profile picture

2007-02-19T10:32:00.000-05:00

i decided to play with it some with the tools picasa had.
i really wish i had photoshop so that i could do more things to it.
like fade out the background or do some color highlights or something.

clara, we really need to have that party so i can wear that outfit again.
and we'll have to do it that friday on that weekend after Middleton because my mom already has plans for me that saturday.
i really want to have a party, we're overdue. tell me what you think. and we'll talk tomorrow or something.

valentine's day

2007-02-14T17:08:00.000-05:00

not my favorite holiday
also considering that i've never had anyone on valentine's day. it always falls right inbetween relationships/boys.
today was no different.
i wasn't hungry at all today, i had to force down my lunch. and yet, i also kept forcing down whatever candy i had to see if it'd make me feel any better. it didn't.
so now, i'm sick off candy and still don't feel good.

this really is the most depressing day of the year.
but at least you know you're loved by others even if others don't.

random fun-ness of the week

2007-02-04T21:20:00.000-05:00

-my dad and i:
thrusday night my dad and i go to office depot. they don't have the backboard i want, so we spent an hour trying to figure out what to do with the boards office depot have. and we figure out something that looks even better.
we're driving home from wal-mart on the curvy ox bottom road and
he asks: you ever tried Anti-Lock Brakes?
me: yeah, i tried them with that Jetta we test drove a while back
dad: you could feel it go bump bump bump and all
me: yeah..
...
dad: wanna try 'em?
me:yeah, let's go.
*BRAKEEEEEE*
both: *cracking up*

- spending 6 hours at Candace's house:
i made our backboard and spent an hour on it with my exato knife. i even geometry to cut out our corner triangles and make sure the sides could fold into each other. and now when it stands up, the sides even lean back like they're presenting the board. and the outside boards fit perfectly with cuts. you'll have to see it. amazing.
also making pancakes for dinner
and cutting foam with the exato knife again for some of our pictures.

-PC
just plain dancing. i realized its not something that really, clearly defines me, but oh do i love to do it. and the adrenaline rush you get when you're preforming. one of my dances, that everyone gets tired out doing like half-way through, everyone was hitting it throughout the entire dance. of course we all collapsed right after we got off, but while you're preforming.. you just know you can do whatever the move is.
and two of my dances getting High Gold (one of them my small group in which there's less people and more chances to notice someone doing something wrong.) and our large group that we can absolutely never get together got Platinum which is the HIGHEST and most prestige award. plus that dance got 1st place high score out of the large groups (which is also good).
also, hanging out with my mom and sister. just the girls.
oh, and our reservation got canceled (because we originally booked fri and sat night, but then canceled friday, but they canceled both) and my mom was not happy and does not take that sort of thing without a fight. we got the corner, bayview suite for the price of a regular room. so that was nice.

-rocket launching:
after the girls got home, my dad, brother and brother's friend and i went out to Chiles' soccer practice feilds and shot off rockets. A engine = smallest, B = medium, C = largest engine we had with us.
our 3rd or 4th launch, we (more like i) decided to launch the smallest, lightest rocket with a C engine. ..it got up into the clouds, but we tilted it too much into the wind and lost it in the woods. lol. we then spent about 20 minutes or so exploring the woods behind Chiles looking for the rocket. there are deer trails back there that are pretty cool. we didn't find it but
and then after a while, i took the job of positioning the angle of the launch pad stick into the wind to make it land as close to us as possible. my most impressive was 30 meters away with a C engine in a tiny rocket. i also had 9 and 2 meters away but that was with an A engine in a heavy rocket, so it didn't go very far up.
very fun stuff.

that's my random fun stuff of the weekend. homework today wasn't fun and i still need to memorize a spanish paragraph my 6th period. craaaaap.
i hate Mrs Knoll's memorizing spree

OWC this weekend (i need to study again)

oops. i haven't written in a while

2007-01-21T22:06:00.000-05:00

my xanga has my recent posts.
i like posting in here though because only a select few know about it and it sometimes even takes them a while before they read it. doesn't mean that i can completely spill my guts in here, just nice to know i have a bit more freedom in what i can write and not have so many people read it.

i like keeping stuff in my head sometimes. like just making my own little world where every event is perfect. keeps me entertained.
but it also entails hope. so, only after i've accepted that this world/personal mock up of future events won't happen, then i can enjoy it.
it's weird. i'm a very optimistic person, yet try to have low expectations so i'm not disappointed.
maybe i'm optimistic about bad events: that they'll bring something good, that it happened for a reason and with time, will bring something good. whereas with immediate future events, i try to have low expectations to not be disappointed. or just not be disappointed in general and say it happened for a reason. which brings me back to being optimistic.

anyways, when you think about something for too long, it becomes so idealistic to you that sometimes you can't accept the real thing it was based off of.

i don't like change too much. especially when i don't know what the change is or what it's going to be to. once i know what it's going to change to, i can pretty much figure out what i should do next. it's the "something's going to change but you don't know what or when or how yet" that i hate the most. a foreboding thing that you don't even know what it is.
probably why i always have to know everything. everything i find pertinent that isn't sticking my nose in someone else's business.

anyways, my pondering thoughts. off to do some psych.

sunday

2007-01-07T22:10:00.000-05:00

so.. today i watched Love Actually, Top Gun, Independence Day, Desperate Housewives, and now Brothers and Sisters.
i reeeally hope that nothing's due tomorrow cuz i didn't do anything
i have a book project thing due tues (that i'll due tomorrow night)
and chem problems due wed (that i'll start tomorrow night as well)

Buchholz is coming. i'll probably study some mao sometime this week, hopefully.
tomorrow i'll find out who's all coming on this trip. maybe that'll help some decisions. :-\

ha. so i'm bored.

2007-01-02T19:17:00.000-05:00

i haven't done practically anything the past couple of days..
saturday i went to the beach. that was real mellow and fun.
sunday i unwillingly stayed home and did nothing. not during the day nor at night. i was especially upset about the night part. my mom said we could have a new years party next year at our house. just the thing is, is that a lot of other people throw ones as well which would take away from mine.. and as much as i would love to be invited to those parties, i never am. ever. i've only ever threw my own or sat at home on new years. (except last year i spent the night at Kaley's)
just that when i talk to people, either they don't care about new years and are perfectly fine not staying up, or have a friend who's throwing a party that i don't know.
gah. i'm complaining. and i can't do anything about what happened on sunday.
i guess i'll just worry about whether to plan a party or not next year if no one else is. i'll just have to start planning it at like the beginning of dec so that all the people staying in town will actually know i'm throwing one. and maybe i'll actually have someone to kiss at midnight by then (cuz that's never happened either)
anyways
i also didn't do much monday either. except that night i went with Clara and saw Casino Royale. good movie. just, we got to the mall early to buy Cicy a present, and got there right before 6. found her a present and still had like an hour before the movie started. and then right at 6, allll the stores closed. all of them. (good thing we got there when we did.)
so then we just went and bought our tickets and watched Charlotte's Web for about 45 min until 007 started. which was a loot better than charlotte's web. lol

today. i decided to do my hw because i haven't done any of it over the break. and some of it i have to turn in to school tomorrow. lol. although that only took about hour or two of my time up. (and mostly because i was kinda spacey doing it..) and then proceeded to watch tv and not do anything except be online, like always, for the rest of the day :-)
of course, the night's still young, i could go out and do something with some people. but only if they ask. i don't feel like planning anything right now.

tomorrow i really need to do my chemistry. and my calc. and some history fair so i don't let candace down. chemistry might take a while. but hopefully, since i'll be doing something, i won't be distracted worrying about other things and be too spacey.
sucks that school's in a day.
but i'm looking forward to Cicy's party. it seems like it's farther away than it actually is. probably because my first obstacle to tackle is school starting again, and then Cicy's party.
but i'm wearing my new shirt to her party. and my new earrings. i'm going to look hott. though, Cicy said the only hott guy there will be Alan Chen, sucks that he's a sophomore. i don't go after younger guys.. even if they are hott.

ok. this is definitely long enough, i'll be surprised if anyone reads all this.

2006

2006-12-31T16:03:00.000-05:00

so i spent a good amount of time recapping 2006 in a xanga entry a little while ago.
http://www.xanga.com/gummbbear/559810946/2006.html is where it's at.

it's raining outside and i still don't know for sure what i'm doing tonight. i think i'm worrying too much about it. i just really wanna do something
maybe that could be a new years resolution: don't worry so much about things or whats going to happen or whatnot. just let them flow. everything will take it's designated course pretty much no matter what you do. (because you know those psychic movies/tv shows where someone looks into the future and sees something they don't like so they do whatever they can to try and stop it, but in the process of trying to stop the event, the even happens anyway.)
i think i'll just enjoy life and not worry about what will or won't happen.

this is one time that i do not like the rain.

guess what?!

2006-12-24T11:16:00.000-05:00

i now have picture messaging and video messaging and mp3 player allll together!!
and

:-)

i also finished all my Christmas shopping yesterday too and it only took me 8 hours. (4 with my mom and 4 with my dad)
although, my parents did some shopping of their own while i was with them so that's mostly why it took so long.

yay for Christmas specials all day. tomorrow doesn't feel like it should be Christmas. maybe it's because i left all my shopping til the last minute. or maybe because it's the 3rd day of winter and it's 70° outside.

i think i'm going to play with my phone some more.. :-D

maybe i should just skip tomorrow

2006-12-19T14:09:00.000-05:00

i think i should. i really don't want to have anymore to do with exams.
just worrying for no reason is giving me a headache. like my history exam that i got a 100 on. blah. my stat exam i got a 93 on.. i thought i could of done better, but it was multiple choice, so i guess with no partial credit, i can get some wrong.. oh well, still have a 98 in the class and it'll show up as an A on my report card.
Spanish i just have to make a notecard for, so it shouldn't take too long, i hope. but i really don't want to worry, but i will.

i think my dad and i are going to alltel when he gets home (hopefully) to go look at phones. i'll probably end up getting the razr, i never really wanted one, but if it's the best deal Alltel has right now.. i'll take it.

i want to do something tomorrow after school. nick and i are the only ones in on the plans. still don't know what we're doing and other people can come too. just gotta find those other people. you're welcome to come if you're reading this.

-edit-
calc ch 6 test: 99/100! (now if only that was our exam grade :-\. and i kinda wana see what i missed if it was only one point. lol)

Kansas City Shuffle

2006-12-16T12:30:00.000-05:00

i've always kinda wondered if i could sneak out of my house. and do it, just to see if i could. although, it'd be kinda stupid to get caught for nothing, but then again, i probably wouldn't get in trouble because it was nothing. and then i'd know i'd have a harder time sneaking out of the house actually for something. but you know, it seems like it's in the high-school teenager handbook that you have to sneak out of your house at least once. i only have a year and 1/2 left now. :-\

watched Lucky Number Sleven last night. was kinda slow until the end. but i really liked the end.
you should see it if you haven't already.

last time i took pictures with my camera was Thanksgiving. i brought it last night to the soccer game, but there wasn't much to take pictures of.. so i didn't take any. i'll bring it tonight and take pictures. I had this urge all the sudden to upload pictures on to here, that's why this is pertinent, but then realized i haven't really taken any since Thanksgiving. (unless you count the ones i took after Kavi's party, but i don't)

oh and more good news: my mom found my keys. they were in my jacket i was wearing at Kavi's party. i never usually put things in that jacket, so i didn't look there. but now they're found. yay

i think i'll take some pictures and edit this later tonight with them. and then probably Megan and Peter's party, i'll take pictures there too and that'll be my combined album on Facebook. :-)

i hope i actually get to see see people over the break, like hang out with them, see them. and i want to go ice skating at Klemen Plaza in 80 degree weather. mostly because i haven't been ice skating in a while. i'll also need to find people that'll want to go with me. and then afterwards, we can go see a movie at IMAX. i've planned this all out..

soccer

2006-12-15T18:01:00.000-05:00

going to the boy's soccer game tonight vs Lincoln (more than likely).
i've been wanting to go to one all year (preferably Leon, but their next one vs Leon is on a wed, so probably won't go) but this is like their first home game that isn't on a monday or wednesday or a day i have something going on. and it's a big game, i guess, so other people will be there. yay.

lets see... saturday night will be Sarah's party which should be fun. (oh, i wana scrap some money off my mom for a present. :crosses fingers: )
sunday i have small group (dance) and then i need to do my stat review.
monday - wednesday i have exams (only in the morning though)
monday and wednesday i also have dance, idk if i'm going yet or not, probably should since i missed last week, but monday night i'll be studying calc and history for tuesday's exams and wednesday is the day we get out. so.. i might want to do something that night. idk. i'll probably go monday and hopefully find something to do wed. night.
thursday i don't have anything - this day is reserved for sleep and watching movies.
friday is our family friends christmas party thing at like 5 or so. and then i'll probably go late to Peter and Megan's Party later that night.
and then sat-sun is nothing
monday is christmas
then the next sunday is new years (which i definitely need to find some party to go to then or something!)
that last week before school starts i also need to start my class homework (chem, calc, history fair, etc.)

i did my hair. tried a new way to curl it.. probably won't hold for long. and i figured i could do it because if it doesn't work out, only the people at the soccer game will see..

i wish we still did soccer on the weekends, makes me sad that it kinda died.

i'm using my new purse tonight. maybe i can take pictures too. i need to pay my dad back for my camera. i wonder how tonight will turn out.

LOVES!

2006-12-10T16:51:00.000-05:00

i absolutely love these kids! :-)

ahhh!

2006-12-08T23:28:00.000-05:00

Kavi's party was sooo much fun.

i realized driving home how much i love dancing. i didn't want the party to end because i wanted some good music to come on to dance to. and didn't want to leave once it came on.. (although curfew and crap - i had to). but i do love dancing and dressing up.
one of the reasons why i love the mao state and nationals conventions so much is because we get an excuse to dance. and with kids we don't know, so it really doesn't matter.
(i think the worst kid of people to, i guess dance with, are your acquaintances. because they don't know you that well, and if they don't like your dancing style, they'll have a negative image of you..) but with people you're close to, it doesn't matter, they already have an opinion of you, and people you don't know you'll probably never see again, so it doesn't matter.

damn i looked good tonight. i think i'm posting a "myspace" picture on here just to document how good i looked tonight.
or or
take your pick. the party probably would have been better context.. but, this'll work for the given circumstances.

haha. i love how easily you can post pictures on here right from Picasa. :-)

i'm off to bed.
night

ps. if you read this comment on this post. i wana know if anyone else besides clara reads this, b/c i know nick and kevin and roland all have one, just don't think they read others..

T to the A to the S T E Y

2006-12-05T17:09:00.000-05:00

i have had fergalicious in my head most of the day.
it's an addicting song. lol

friday should be fun. of course, i have to come home, go shopping for her present, come back home, probably take a shower, blowdry/straighten my hair, get ready, be over to Kavi's house by 7 to bring her black lights and help her set up.
hopefully i'll be able do all that and not be rushed with it. i hate being rushed with that stuff.

Clara. what are you wearing?
because we were picking out like halter and strapless shirts for Kavita. so i was thinking i could wear this shirt i've had forrever but just never really been able to wear it.. but it's a tubetop type shirt (meaning strapless), brown, has like blue and white pretty flowers on it and comes down right pass my belt. only problem is i'm afraid it might fall down and nothing looks good underneath it (like wearing a spaghetti-strap under it or something) it doesn't work. i was really just going to say whatever, and wear it. and then wear my beige corduroy jacket over it to the party, and then like take it off inside and all.. i don't know though, i don't want to see too dressed up/out of place.
so uh, i wana know what you're wearing. but also, i might just wear it, b/c if it looks good, i'm wearing it.
but let me know.

and then saturday we're going over to jacksonville to have xmas with my mom's family. yay presents.

i should be doing hw. peace.

status: Busy

2006-11-28T22:11:00.000-05:00

this weekend is going to be hectic.
friday night: relaxing and possibly studying vocab
saturday: SAT (morning-noonish)
then to find where people are having lunch and hopefully meet up with them.
Rickards Invitational awards. (til 4ish)
then either Festival of Lights (with the Jingle Bell Run at 6:30) from probably 5:30/6 til 10sih..
or a Kaley's birthday thing (dinner time)
if Kaley organizes something, i'll be doing that instead of the Jingle Bell run..

Sunday: homework?!
small group
and Clara, we should probably get together and finish this calc project b/c it'll be our last weekend before it's due. and my mom's wondering when we can throw it away as it sits in our refrigerator. lol

i still have chem left to do. i really just gave up when i saw "find the lattice energy" b/c that was the section i need to read, and exactly the section i don't want to. i finished everything else except those last couple problems (thing is, is that there are only 2 lattice crap problems, and then 3 questions left after that and i haven't read those problems because they're after the lattice ones, and i like my questions in order. lol) i'll probably just do it at lunch or copy someone's with work so that i don't have to read all that when that box rambles on foreverrrrrrr.

anyways. i'm out.
(i think this will be my sum-up long entry from xanga blog. lol

haha. last night i was babysitting for our former neighbors, and the two girls are also friends with my sister.
so, yesterday, i found out that my sister has a myspace. i figured she would eventually, i would just have to find it. well, i found it.
now, i get to spy on all her myspace doings. and she would get to do the same for me, but since i raaarely ever use myspace unless someone else comments or something, i don't think it'll be too much a problem.
only thing, is that now that i've let her into my myspace, she can more than likely link to my other sites (xanga mostly, which is why i'm writing in here, because i haven't used this in such a long time, that i doubt there are any links to it anywhere. ). but she hasn't gotten a facebook yet, i think that'll come around next year or so. that's when i'll really have to just be cautious and such.
my little sister's growing up.. awww. now she needs to get herself a boy.

it's been over a year, and i haven't written in this thing... haha. Clara just brought it to my attention that i still can get comments on it.

it's just been easier for me to post on xanga where the majority of people are, and then have that post posted to facebook where even more people are. (of course i have privacy settings and all).
i mostly keep this so i can comment on other people's blogs that also have blogger.

plus! i can't figure out how to put links on my blog page so i can see other peoples' easier and there's not some sort of subscribe or friend thing so i can see others' blogs easier..
so, if someone (out of the 4 people i know on here, and probably only 2 of them know i have one of these) could help me out on that, i'd probably use this more often. :-)
i guess i just need to figure out how to navigate around better.. and it's not really working...

-edit-
i got the links thing! :-)

ok i am so at a loss. my second post i had in here, i some how posted 2 pictures, i'm assuming from my hello account, in here, and in the same post. i'm trying agian to post multiple pictures into the same post but its not working. it'll only post one at a time. agg! if i could post mulitple pictures all at the same time and still put captions in. do you know how simple and easy that would make my whole life! lol i'd use this thing a whooole lot more and post so many pictures in here. but i have no idea how to do that straght from hello.
arg. this makes me mad, that i think i did it before, and now i don't know how to do it again. if anybody, somehow, is reading this and knows how to post multiple pictures through Hello all at once. i will love you forever!!

much love.
