Prom!!!

So the main part of this past week was prom. I was so excited for prom because my girlfriend flew in from Mass. for the prom. We looked so great in all of our prom pictures and my tux and her dress were beautiful.

For dinner we went to a new restaurant in town with a group of people. There, the food was pretty good and it wasn't too expensive. As for prom night it was fun but scary because of a huge storm which came through.

At prom the dancing was kind of stupid because the songs were at an awkward pace and all the lights were left on so you could tell that the people on the dance floor were really uncomfortable.

After prom we made our way to after prom and that was fun. We won the dating game so we each got ten dollars and we also played some bingo and watched people sing and make fools of themselves.

Overall I was just so excited to get to see my girl and be with her.

One More Week

I'm so flippen' excited. It is just 5 more days until Thursday! What is Thursday (you are probably asking yourself)? I have an answer. Thursday is the day that my girlfriend from MA flies in for prom! Sadly, I am being cajoled into going to school on Friday by my mother because she is being wicked annoying. But, I'm still really excited for her to come down and for prom.

So my past week has been same old, same old. The main is that I need to get my AP Chemistry grade up because right now I have a B for this term and I really want to do well in the class so I need to start working way harder so I can get that A.

Also this week my partner that I rapped with and I decided to get our gift certificate to Cheddar's so at some point we will have to redeem that.

Today I went to Welborn's Flowers to get flowers for prom and I really didn't realize how expensive flowers are. To get my girlfriend a bouquet and to get a flower pin thing for myself cost me around $65. And since I am in the process of searching for a job, other than cutting my parents grass for $15, $65 is a rediculous amount of money.

Another Week

So this week was reletively simple, seeing as not a lot happened. I had a huge chemistry test which I am pretty sure I did well on. Also this week I presented my Canterbury Tales Project. I was the knight so for my visual aid I made a knight out of aluminum foil.

Additionally my mom was in Nebraska visiting her family there. So, my dad and I went out to eat just about every night! One night we went to Ninki and then another night we ate some fried chicken.

Then on Sunday a friend of mine and I made a video presentation of us rapping. This presentation got us a free meal from out teacher. So now we need to figure out where we are going to get a gift certifigate to.

Viva Mexico!!!

So over Spring Break I went to Cancun, Mexico. This trip was for my grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary.

I got to leave school a day early so my break started on Wednesday. Thursday morning my mom, my dad, and I got up at 2 AM to drive to Nashville to catch our 5 AM flight to Atlanta and then on to Cancun. We arrived in Cancun a couple hours before the rest of our group which consisted of my brother, my two cousins, my aunt, my uncle, and my grandparents so we got in a taxi and took a one hour drive to the all-inclusive where we were staying. When we got there it was amazing. Immediately we went out and sat on the beach and waited for the rest of my family to arrive.

Everyday I got up around 10 or 11 and went and ate at the breakfast buffet. Then I went out and sat on the beach. My days there were filled with drinking beverages, snorkeling, kayaking, and playing beach volleyball. Unfortunately, I got a nasty sunburn one of the days so I just left a t-shirt on the rest of the week so the burn would not get too bad. One of the days my whole family went to another beach by taxi. This beach we went to is famous for its residential juvinile sea-turtle population. I was so exciting getting to swim with sea-turtles. Also while snorkeling there we saw a 5 foot baracuda that was terrifying huge.

Our nights were filled with hanging out at the Sports Bar, going around to shops, and going to the different restaurants on the resort. Our favorite restaurant had to be the Japanese Hibachi Restaurant.

The flight home was a bit more rocky. We were stuck in Atlanta for the night and had to sleep in the airport because of a big thunder storm in Nashville. So we got a very bad night of sleep but, luckily we were able to catch a flight at 8 the next morning and we were home by noon.

Overall it was a magnificent trip.

Away

For this post just go to the next post because I was in Mexico when I would normally do this post so I am just going to do a post from right now to show both of them.

Modern Warfare II

So this week was pretty boring until the end of the week. During the week I took a chemistry and I gave a speech in English class. My speech was on the problem of obesity in America. Overall obesity has become a major part and problem of America. Hopefully I made some sort of change in the people who heard my speech.

On Saturday I went to my friend's house and we played some Halo and Call of Duty. It was a blast.

Then, just now, I was elected treasurer of our National Honor Society!

Spiderman

This week was pretty good. On Monday, some people from my English class and I went to Denny's for breakfast. I was surprised that I was able to wake up at 6:30 to go, seeing as I usually wake up at 7:50. That was the highlight of that day.

On Tuesday, my English class was assigned to get into groups and make a commercial for a product. My group ended up meeting Thursday after shcool and filmed our commercial. Our product is Bully-Alert. It is a spoof off Life-Alert. In the commercial I dressed up as Spiderman and another kid dressed up as Captain America. I have a feeling that the final product, we will see it tomorrow, will be pretty awesome.

On Wednesday, our NHS went to a retirement home and entertained the elderly with a St. Patrick's Day Party. That was really fun and it was surprisingly interesting to talk with the people there and hear about their lives.

Thursday, we shot our commercial and I found out about a big Chemistry test on Monday so I really need to get to work on studying for that.

Overall that is my week. And a week from Thursday I get to go to Mexico!
