So I'm pretty much totally hyper right now. No idea where that came from. :-)
Ok. Life in the past...um...13 days.
Youth group: Rocks. As usual. I love you guys!! :-D We need to a. have tiedown soon and b. have a big random party.
School: Finally has a decent, workable system that makes me very happy and usually has me finishing before 5. :-D EVEN THOUGH I'm doing like, an hour of SAT prep a day. (hermione?) I better score high enough to get my ears double pierced. tee hee hee. If I score within a hundred points of the equivalent of my PSAT score I can get them double pierced. (I a. was going to talk them into letting me pierce them eventually and b. wanted to score that high anyway, so it's all good.)
Excuse me while I consume my evening meal.
(and then go make cookies, and then watch Beethoven lives upstairs, and then go to bed. Perhaps I will post later. If not, love to all, and to all a good night.)

Wrapping up Christmas break (along with the first week back)
I will now proceed to review the list of 10 things I wanted to do on Christmas break.
1. Redecorate my bulletin board. This is still a work in progress. It's about halfway done...haha. When you come over to my house next you need to see it. :-)
2. Talk on the phone for 3 hours (not straight, not with one person, just total. :-) This I did accomplish, even after I changed it to 5 after talking to meghan for 2 hours (straight.) I think some was with Gina and some was with Cayley and the other 45 minutes was my grandma I think...we've been talking every day since we got the new phone. Yay!
3. Get all the rest of my Christmas presents. Cutting it close, aren't I? Definitely check.
4. Read 2 books. At least. And also, finish The Children of Willesden Lane. I don't think I actually did this. But I did finish the CoWL.
5. Load all our crazy pictures onto i. the computer. ii. myspace. Abby helped with this.
6. Not pig out on more than 3 of the days: Christmas Eve, Christmas, and New Year's Eve. :-) I'm pretty sure I managed that. Although there was that one day when we played 3 games of clue and ate chocolate covered pretzels and chocolate covered caramel corn and almonds...but I didn't totally pig out on the three exception days, so I'm going to count this one as an accomplishment.
7. Practice piano for 15 mins every day. (At least. :-) Hmm. I think I forgot about this one. But my lesson's not going to bad, so...I'm not sure I really "failed"
8. Watch 2 movies. (Ha. That'll get done without ME trying.) Oh, more specific: Watch the live version of How the Grinch stole Christmas and It's a Wonderful Life. We did watch it's a wonderful life, but not the grinch. Does 5-episodes-of-What-not-to-wear-in-a-row count?
9. Make fudge. *sniff* I meant to do this early in the break, so that we could eat it throughout, but alas...
10. Do something extra-Christmasily-nice for someone. Hmm...I did unload the diswasher for a family I babysat...does that count? haha.
Well, let's see. I think I did 6 of them if you count 1, 4, 6 and 10 as halves. :-) Oh well, it sure was fun anyway.
Now it's back to school. Not too bad. A new year is a new start. I've been doing some things differently so I have more energy (and hence, it takes a ridiculous amount of time for me to fall asleep. However, we had dance till 9:30 last night and didn't get home till 10 so I got to bed a little late. That means I should get to sleep faster tonight. :-) The only thing I still want to do differently is to get in touch with you all more often. So, if I just randomly call you and say, hey, what's up, that means you can either tell me it's a bad time and you'll call me back or tell me all about your day and ask me how mine was. :-D Ok? Ok.
adios
