Gold Medal Game

And I'd love to be Canadian right about now.
I lied, USA just scored.
:( I'm so sad.  We lost in overtime. 3-2.  So sad.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times

It's more like the average of times because not much is going on, but I'm okay with that.  My friends wanted to hang out today, but they wanted to see a movie, and I'm sort of broke, so I said no.  It's okay.  Now I have time to work out, do homework, apply for scholarships... that stuff.  Now, I should really start on all of that... but I'm feeling lazy, and I'm getting a headache.

I've been getting a lot of those lately.  Stress?  Seems so.

I don't like headaches.

Oh Lord, you make me want to pray

It's snowing.  Apparently, it's going into blizzard status. I am not enjoying this for three reasons:
1.  I'm sick
2.  Tomorrow's snow day will mean one less Spring Break day
3.  I was supposed to dress shopping this weekend.

At this rate, I won't have a dress for prom!  Well, at this rate, I won't have a date either, but that's another blog for another time because I don't really care much for that. 

I hate being sick!  It's not really a flu thing, but I just have a sore-ish throat.  It just feels really dry.  I don't know.  I just know that I am sick, and I am not enjoying it.  AND I have a Psych project due tomorrow, another one due in a little over a week, and an English project due next week.  So much work.  Why?  Second half of senior year... are these teachers really serious?  Give us a break already.

I can't not do the work, though... so I'll just continue to slave on.  I was hoping for a break before college came and ensued chaos.

Financial Aid

Excuse me, colleges & universities, don't you think that investing in more fax numbers would be a smart idea? I spent a good three hours trying to fax my tax papers to four schools. Only one actually got them.. the rest were busy/no response/poor connection. I have five days to get them there.

Tomorrow, I'm going to school early to fax things. Hopefully not many people are faxing the schools at 7 AM, eastern time.

Headaches

I have a ridiculous headache right now. It's been hiding in the shadows all day, popping up at random moments, but for a while now, it's been there. The pressure behind my forehead is killing me, and I still need to analyze a short story for English.

That doesn't seem like a very good combination.

Falling drops of water are hitting me

I hate the rain... ridiculously a lot. Walking in it is a nightmare, even for ten minutes. It makes the day look so drab and dull. It puts a damper on everyone's moods and seems to put everyone on edge, ready to snap at every little thing. Lucky me, it seems that the weather forecast has rain for the whole week.

The rain makes me miserable.

Average everyday

Psychology has me swamped, and I'm scared for next week. The juniors have the HSPA, so the seniors basically get three days of sitting in the auditorium, bored out of their minds. However, my Psych teacher has guaranteed that we will get work, and we will get lots of work.

In other news, applying for financial aid also has pulling at my hair. I have to fax in all of my parents' taxes to four schools, I have to apply for scholarships, WAIT UNTIL APRIL 1 TO FIND OUT IF I'M EVEN IN.

Prom is coming up... graduation is coming up... the senior trip... there is just so much coming up that it's weighing down now. Even when there is nothing due, there is something due.

All of that plus my lack of a social life puts me on a roller coaster ride of emotions. For a while, I felt so depressed and I couldn't pull myself out of it. Now all is okay, but I'm fearing what will happen when it's not okay anymore. I really don't want to do feel all that despair again.

Four more months, though, and I'll begin on my journey of self-discovery.

first of all

New blog, new me? That makes no sense.
