Sorry I've kind of abandoned you. I promise that it wasn't intentional, but I've been kind of busy with life.
School ended twenty days ago. This is my final standing:
Geometry Honors - 90 A
Acting - 100 A
P-IB World Literature - 94 A
P-IB French 2 - 88 B
Algebra 2 Honors - 83 B
P-IB Chemistry - 77 C
AP European History - 80 B
I am really disappointed with my Chemistry grade, but there is always hope that I will do better in Biology this year. I was also mad about my French and Algebra grades, but they are pretty much representative of how hard I didn't try in those classes. I am really happy about the Euro grade, but I am nervous about seeing my score on the exam. I need to find my number thing, just in case.
Overall, it was a good year. I'm really looking forward to this coming year, though. I'm going to be a junior which means I need to REALLY get serious colleges. I get to fill out my FAFSA, which I have been stoked to do. The more aid I can get, the better. Which is why my heart is set on Yale. My dad would only have to pay MAYBE ten thousand a year for me, and I'd only have to pay two thousand five hundred. Plus, the campus pays 11.30 an hour, which is pretty much bank here, but I don't know what that's like in Connecticut. I also wouldn't mind being in California, especially if my brother is still there. We find out soon.
About my brother: I haven't talked to him really. He's doing well. He's the smartest person there, which really makes me happy. He's been making 100s on everything, which is a total aboutface for him. They found a guy shooting up heroin, so that is the main thing going on there. He graduates on the 5th of August, so we'll see what happens. I can't wait to see him in a few weeks D:
My other brother... He's not getting to work as much thanks to the oil spill. I feel bad for everybody involved in that, but I want everybody to shut up. Florida beaches are clean, so come dirty them with your beer cans and cigarette butts like you always do.
Me? I'm going to PacSun today to turn in an application. I'm REALLY happy because my mom was kind of waffling about the whole me getting a job thing since school is going to be crazy, but I can handle it. My chem teacher hasn't asked me the pick three question yet, but these are mine: school, job, and nothing. That's because I don't have to worry about sports or boys, plus the other fifth one that I can't remember :/ I'm just going to have to study really hard, because some of my classes are crazy. I'm going to buy SAT prep stuff and take the prep course they offer for like 80 dollars. Hopefully I'll be babysitting some of my dad's co-worker's kids. I guess I could call them family friends. I got two of them to let me use them as references, which makes me really happy.
So far, 2010 has been a pretty crazy year, but I'm loving it. Let's just hope the second half goes well.

Without hope, the us's give up - I know you cannot live on hope alone, but without it, life is not worth living. So you, and you, and you... You gotta give em' hope... you gotta give em' hope. -Harvey Milk, Milk(2008)
