Homecoming!
was awesome. I went over to Rachel's house to get ready, and EVERYONE was there. Rachel (duh), me (also duh), Kaitlyn, and Chibi-chan! AND, Rover and his boyfriend (whom is awesome and i like a lot) came over because they were bored, and Chibi-chan and RBF (Rover's bf) helped me with my hair! It was like a big getting-ready party XD
The dance itself was also pretty good. We mostly stayed together in a semi-awkward circle, and danced as weird as we wanted. I discovered that Chibi-chan can really dance, and that Rover and RBF are both adorable and not that awkward when they're together. I mean, I've been with them when they're together, but compared to a lot of couples there, they were really good at not making people feel like a third wheel. Also, they can both dance. they can both dance well.
Despite the fact that I was not allowed to remove my 4-inch heels, and was therefore in some foot pain, I had an awesome time and would do it again in an instant.

The rest of until-now:
I took my ACT's, and now that my family is back from Disney World, I can actually do stuff besides babysit my pansy of a yellow lab.

Um.... yeah. I'm baking cookies right now.

Byes!!

Oh, and OpenLovingSoul, I didn't go to Florida because I didn't want to. I didn't feel like missing school to stand in lines in hot weather and eat overpriced junk food. So I stayed home. XD

Birding Club!!!

Ok, this is a little late, but I JOINED BIRDING CLUB! XD

We went on our first trip this past friday, to a place near Hawk Mountain. We were planning on seeing an owl banding, but that...didn't work out so well. Saw-whet owls, which we wanted to see, are rather small, and as it was rather windy friday night, they don't fly in the wind. So, the 7 of us, plus our awesome math-teacher-chaperone, basically sat in an unheated cabin from 7 to 11, playing 24 and this really cool game the teacher brought called Sets. I won my first 24 card! and it was a 3-dot!! it had a 9, a 2, a 6, and an 8. 9 times 2 divided by 6 times 8 is 24!!

anyway, despite the abundance of cameras and picture taking, I had a really good time and learned a lot about Saw-whet owls. they're the smallest owls in the upper eastern US, and only like 8 inches tall! I saw a few pictures, and they're so cute! >.<

so.... yeah that's about it. My family is going on vacation to florida/disney world this weekend, leaving on thursday and coming back on monday. so, I have the house to myself. I also have my ACTs on saturday, as well as being dragged to homecoming that night.

so..... byes!
