Bored..so very bored..

Ever since last Monday when I finished Math and Science I have been SO BORED!! There is seriously nothing to do until I get my English and Socials Books. ( I'm on semester.) So I guess maybe that is why I've been blogging so much lately.

I've never really had this happen before. Like even if its Christmas Holiday, Spring Break or the Summer there is always something I COULD or SHOULD do. Even if I don't do it and just procrastinate the whole holiday I don't have that feeling that I don't have anything to do. So this is like the first time I can actually remember really having NOTHING to do!

I guess I really shouldn't be complaining since I would actually prefer being "underloaded" then overloaded with school. The annoying thing is that all my friends are busy doing schoolwork!! Its kind of funny though since its usually the other way around.

I suppose I could start on Info Tech but I really don't feel like that. In fact, I don't even know what I feel like doing. I actually want to write something. Something really, really good. Like a novel or at least a good start to one but nothing is working. Well, I sort of got a good lead last night but I don't feel like trying to write and being discouraged.

I am entering two writing contests...
The Royal Commenwealth Essay Contest http://www.rcsint.org/essay/
& The Young Writers Club's Postcard Story Contest http://youngwritersclub.homestead.com/Postcard_story_contest.html

I believe that both are open to youth up to age 18 so please check them out if you are interested!! (The Commenwealth Contest gives some nice prizes too :) that is not why I'm entering though! )

I guess that is all for now! Probably the most boring post I've ever written but I just can't think of anything interesting to say when I'm bored!!!

Ta-Ta!!

Christmas!!!

Hey All! I hope you had a grand Christmas! Mine was awesome!!! On Christmas morning we got up and opened presents. We didn't go to Church because the Christmas Eve service the night before had been cancelled because of the snow so we thought Church would be cancelled too that day. It felt kind of weird not going at all!

After opening presents we ate breakfast which is always cinnamon buns. Oh by the way, one of my gifts was a new sleeping bag which I really needed! I had one but it was my cousin's and she needed it back. But my new one is soo much nicer than my old one. For one thing, its actually new lol.

In the afternoon, my mom had a nap and my sister and I watched some episodes of The Waltons. We also phoned our Grandma and our Grandparents as well as our Grandpa who lives on the Island.

We went to my Aunt/Uncle/Cousin/Grandparent's house for dinner. My Aunt cooked dinner and it was really good. I opened some presents there too. After dinner (which was a buffet) my cousins, sister and I went sledding in the backyard (except my youngest cousin who was asleep!) That was super fun but unfortunatly we had to leave before we tried our our jump.

I really enjoyed Christmas although I think I'm actually coming down with some kind of cold! Yesterday, my sister and I went sledding which was also lots of fun. It rained last night and is still raining now so I'm glad I went.

Well I'd better go.
