Woohoo its finally Friday!! This has been a long week haha. I’ve been very stressed out all week about my interview. Luckily, its finally over and now all I have to do is wait to see if I’m a finalist. Today will be such an easy day too because I only have to come to school for 1st and 2nd and then I get to go wrap presents . I honestly thought this weekend would never come, but I’m sooo glad that its finally here.

This is only Tuesday and its my last day in school this week!! Tomorrow, I know I will have to clean all day though. My mom is freaking out because everyone is coming to our house this year for Thanksgiving dinner and she wants the house to be perfect. My family is coming down from D.C. and im really excited . Mostly, I am excited about our Thanksgiving dinner! We will have turkey and ham and dressing and mashed potatoes and green beans and deviled eggs and pies and sweet potatoes and lots more! Im really excited, but ill probably gain about 7 pounds :/

Wow…what a movie!! As far as scary movies go, I’m pretty much a whimp! I actually bit Stephanie in the middle of the movie…whoops. The sad thing is that she didnt even notice I was biting her until after the scene was over…she was just too scared. She actually cried at the end hahaha! Even though I was terrified, it was a really good movie

Today was tater tot day at school and I thought I might just break my diet. Considering it is only my second day of dieting, I was really trying not to break down. I think the powers were testing my self control…it was almost as if the tater tots were summoning me to eat them. They were tempting me with their crunchy, steamy deliciousness. I think I did well though. I only ate 2 tater tots and then I was content with my apple and cereal. Im very proud of myself for resisting the tater tots!

Tomorrow, my diet starts. It’s not going to be fun, but hopefully I will become a little healthier! Its easy to say that I will stick to a diet, but generally this never works out for me. I just like food too much. Luckily, Stephanie has agreed to do this diet with me and hopefully we can succeed. Knowing us, however, one of two things will happen: 1.we will be each others support group or 2.we will fail greatly, but at least we will be failing together haha

So far, October has been pretty disappointing. It is usually one of my favorite months of the year, but its not the same this year. It has constantly been cold and rainy and I can’t even enjoy the pretty leaves!! Not to mention the fact that we are supposed to have snow this weekend…which I am very upset about. I think there should definitely be a nature law stating that snow is not allowed to appear until November! It seems like fall is already coming to an end, even though it just started:(

Wow…I can’t believe it is already October. Somehow, the last few months have gone by so fast. Now, it is already time for fall and I’m soo happy! I love this time of year and everything that it has to offer. I always get excited about the leaves changing colors, all the pumkins and decorations, and Halloween. This time of year just boosts my spirit. Unfortunately, it looks like the rain has come back for another visit and I may not get to enjoy the outdoors much this week

I’m so glad that it is finally sunny outside today. I just hope the rain doesn’t come back for a long, long time. I know we need the rain and I should be grateful, but all the rain this past few weeks has been awful. It amazes me how much the weather can effect my mood. When it rains for days, I get tired, cranky, and dreary. I don’t think I could ever live in those places where it rains constantly and they hardly ever see the sunshine. The sunshine is what always brightens my day and I definitely need it to survive!

So, these past few weeks have been extremely stressful! I knew this year was going to require a lot of work and money, but this is absolutely ridiculous!! Everyday, it seems like there is another scholarship to apply for or another fee that is due. I can’t get one application finished before I have to start another one. You know, all of my problems could easily be solved if I could just win the lottery! Unfortunately, I’m not 18 yet and even if I were, I would be too poor to afford a lottery ticket!!! All the money I have is being drained out of me by these college application fees, test fees, and my gas tank. I guess I should just accept the fact that for the next 8 years of my life I’m going to be a very poor person eating ramen noodles for every meal! I’m not so sure college is going to be fun anymore.

Well its Monday again! Everyone seems to be sick and I don’t want whatever they have! My sister has the flu and my mom has some other kind of sickness. It seems like there are germs floating around everywhere ready to attack! It’s awfully early for the flu, but everyone seems to be dropping like flies…
