Just my boring life again..

So I am now fully back to schoolwork, my break is over. In Socials I am learning about the modern ages (well the modern ages of the 1500s) and in English I am reading Sherlock Holmes (which I am actually enjoying).

I am also racking my brain for a speech topic for 4-H. Speech night is on Wednesday and I have to pretty much know the whole speech from memory. I've never even written a speech before and the others I am going up against have alot of experience. I might as well be burnt toast compared to them =(.

Oh I got my piano exam results!! First class honours! Wow, I didn't think I'd do so well. I was really convinced I had failed!!

Yesterday I went skiing which was pretty fun. I got really scared though at this one point when it got so foggy I couldn't see anything but white!! I wasn't sure where I was. Thankfully it didn't last long.

Today I have dance...uhhh. not really looking forward to it. btw I am quiting all dance next year because I suck. Well to say that would be to put it mildly. I really, really, really can't dance. I'm not going to improve either. I'm convinced of that.

At first I was worried that if I quit now I'll regret it later...I did quit ballet a couple years ago to pursue horse back riding (which failed for other reasons which I don't discuss) and I sort of regretted it this year and thats why I started again I guess. But now I've decided I'd rather just improve something I'm actually good at. Something that I can actually use in life. (btw I know what that something is but I am not writing it here because I KNOW you'll laugh).

You know what I am really sick of right now? When people tell me I am blocking traffic!! Its happened twice lately and I wasn't even in the way! Uhhh..I don't know why I just wrote that...but its true!!

Ok g2g do some more school!

Fare the well!!

All Is Well

So my Grandpa is at home and back to normal! I'm so thankful. They found out that he had blood clots in his urine that almost caused a heart attack or a stroke!!! The reason was that there had been a medicine switch so he had actually been taking 30 miligrams instead of 6!! So the medicine almost killed him!

After that episode I've really been thinking about my relationship with him and my other Grandpa. I love both of them but I'm not really close to either of them. Maybe its because you can't really have a conversation with my Grandpa (who was just in the hospital) without it turning into politics and my other Grandpa lives on the Island, he has trouble hearing and he is quiet. In any event though I am going to try to make it a point to phone them more often.

Life is going pretty good besides that. I've started English and Socials. English is SO easy though! I wouldn't be surprised if I was finished by next Thursday!! Last night was the first 4-H meeting and I actually got elected as the News reporter which was the part I wanted! I was actually quite surprised that I got nominated let alone elected since it is my first year!

Ok...got to go!

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!!
