The countdown begins :)

     With only two weeks of school left, everyone is getting more than a little excited for summer. With all the drab weather we have been having, I would like a bit of summer sun myself. I'm realizing now that though the school year is winding down, the work load isn't. Homework is my enemy at the moment, specifically that of Honors English. But I have other things to focus on besides that. Like my parent's divorce which is now finalized. Not really sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing but at least things are getting somewhere right? We have a moving date, my mom, brother and I are moving close to school. The new place is cute and better than what I was excpeting so at least there is a bit of a bright side to this whole situation. What's really keeping me from focusing on the negative though is my guy. He's great and has a way of taking my mind off of all the stressful things that have become my life. I'm actually planning to go out with him and another couple this weekend. :) Another positive is yearbooks, if we ever actually get them. Yearbook class made all the deadlines but production got held up in Dallas so the books are now two... wait three, days late. Either way I am excited to see what they turn out to look like.
     I would say that I don't have much else to write about but that would be a lie. The real trouble is knowing where to start. School is mainly what I focus on right now, I get my stories from whatever happens that day. Like today for example, I made this Dutch pastry for History class called "Oliebollen". It tasted pretty good to my great surprise. I'll bring in a batch on Friday and we'll see if my history teacher agrees. Hopefully he will, if not then my grade, and all the dessert leftovers, will be in the garbage.
     Anyways, I am determined not to fill this page up with dreadful details about my school life. Let's talk about the idea of the future :) Right now, even though I have no clue as to which direction I'm headed, I am excited for the future. A promise of something new, new potential, new people, new stories. In my head I have many futures, the future of tomorrow, where I'll focus in school, my friend won't be mad at me anymore, and I'll be better at flute. Then there's the future of the distant future. That one might be a bit scary. I know that I would love to be a professional photographer, a writer, maybe an English teacher, or something to do with music. No, I take that back, anything to do with music would be amazing. Unfortunatly, photography and music are no the best fields of work to head into. But a girl can dream right?
     Then there's always the aspect of now. Forget the future for a second and focus on today. YOLO right? Well, being the sheltered child that I am, the riskiest thing I've done lately is skipped a question on my math homework. Sometimes I wish that I was less of a chicken. Especially in the matter of say, when you really want to say something personal but chicken out. I know exactly how that feels. I just keeo thinking how easy it is to not hesitate. But then again I'm not really the kind of person to make hastey decisions. Some poeple say that's a good thing, I'm going to listen to them.
     Speaking of listening, let's get back onto the topic of music :) I have had two songs stuck in my head for the past few days and I might go crazy if they stay stuck in there much longer. "The Future Freaks Me Out" and "Banana Panckaes" to be more specific. Both awesome songs but both very catchy. I would go around singing them but I have recently had a phone conversation clarifying the fact that I don't sing in front of people. I can sing alone but I tend to get a bit of... not stage fright, but something similar when people want to hear me sing. So too bad for them, but they'll have to wait :) All of that is besides the point though. If there is a point here... It seems like I have just been rambling on and on. If anyone is reading this, I apologize for such random tangents on my daily, average life. However, if you are reading this, thank you :) I love having people read what I write! Hope you enjoyed, more later :)
