Summer Reading Blues

Oh lordy. I'm back at school.

So you know what's weird? Our school has decided to put homeroom at the end of third period. That's right. In the middle of the day we're going to listen to announcements and stand up to say the pledge. Ugh. Stupid school. They somehow think that this will fix lateness. In reality, everyone will continue to be late and we'll just miss some more of our actual "education" time. Also, I'm asleep in homeroom still so... hopefully I won't miss too much in AP Literature. I sleep in Spanish anyway. Since we have a rotating schedule, that and Lit are both my first period.

You know what isn't good?

Staying up until 2:30 and waking up at 6:00. Yeah. I don't recommend it. I also don't recommend leaving your summer reading notes/summer reading to the day before you have to write an essay and turn in said notes.

But as for good things... I had a nice weekend. I got to go mini golfing with Jacob on Friday and he beat me by one stupid point. I like to talk a big game but in reality, I'm not that good at mini golf. It was fun anyway. Saturday was most wonderful as well: I made it all the way to Nicolette's house without trouble and from there she navigated us to the movies.

While we're on the topic of movies, go see Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. In 3-D if you can. It is AWESOME. So cute. It isn't much like the children's book that inspired it but the story is just adorable. See the movie, read the book. Do it. Today is the diem to carpe.

This week has been stressful. I got about four hours of sleep most nights due to leaving summer reading notes until the last minute. School.... grrrr....
