It's been a while since my last post... so much has happened since. Wayyy too much to post, and most of it too personal for an online blog, but I can say some things here.
I am attending a new church! I adore it and all the people there. I'm so thankful.
School is rewarding, but hard. In fact, I have a big book and a HUGE project that is due on the first day back... I really should start both of those...
I'm 17. Whoa. When did that happen?
I got a new phone and unlimited texting! Yeahhh!
Not planning on going to grad. Pointless!
I started a 365 project - it's where you take a picture every day for a year. I'm doing self-portraits. =) I'm wanting to expand my photography skills, and get more comfortable in front of the camera. If you want to follow it, my Flickr account is featured on the right!
There are many more things, but here are a few. Merry Christmas Eve! God bless.

DONE FOR REAL!! Until grade 12...
So, I really am done!!!! Well, until grade 12, of course. And then college, and then... nevermind. But, I've decided to just drop a course next year and either take Earth Science, Bio, or Chem. Well, as long as I don't get the same *unmentionable* teacher. I think I could pass it if I didn't have her teaching it. Anyways, I have my summer back. And I am SO stoked.
Summer 2010... HERE I COME!

DONE!! Well, kind of. Ish.
I am DONE the socials 11 provincial!! I think it went okay... I finished in about an hour and 3/4. xD
Normally I take the full 3 hours, but I was done! And I didn't know how much time was left because I forgot a watch, and couldn't read the clock to save my life. =| New glasses will be ready soon! =D
The multiple choice sucked... I'm normally pretty good at it, but I was totally stumped! And the written was tricky. The 2 essays questions were something like: "Explain how Canadians responded to the Great Depression, using political, economic, and social aspects", and "Explain how overpopulation is a main cause of poverty in the developing world. Use both sides of the argument for full marks."
Yeah. Icky questions. But I don't think it was too bad. Hopefully I got at least a B... I don't know though, it was rough.
After, I went for sushi with Justin, and then I fell asleep as soon as I got home- yay for about 12 hours of sleep! =D
And, the reason I say kind of done is that I still have Earth Science online... eww... I'm SO behind, so I'm going to have to work all summer, hours a day. =( Hopefully I'll be able to finish in not too long... speaking of which, I should get back to it.
Hope everyone's exams went well/will go well!

SUMMER!!!! Well, almost.
So, summer for students of my school started yesterday. YESS!!!! Well, except for the unfortunates that have provincials next week. Talk about a downer, eh? Oh well. I have a Socials one on Tuesday, but even if I do badly (which I will), I'm basically guarenteed a B. So I'll take that! And... I PASSED MATH 11!! My teacher was quite proud of me. What did I get, you ask? 52.1%. And I was HAPPY with that?! Yes, yes I was. I wouldn't have even gotten that if it weren't for the tireless hours of help I got from certain people! *coughJustincough* So thank-you, from the bottom of my heart. =)
Well, I'd type more, but I've got to continue with practice provincials. Woot... anyways, hope everyone is enjoying the beginning of summer!! =)

Finally, Another Blog Post!
Hey guys! So, I haven't updated my blog for ages. Bad Sarah. I was kindly reminded by my friend Jay. In otherwords, she was making fun of me for being dorky! Oh well, here it goes. ;)
So what's new? Err... homework. That's always my answer. Seriously, WHY must we get so much?? I get a worksheet or 2 nearly everyday in Socials, due the next day! Unjust, I cry. They're usually not too horrible though. Just annoying and pointless, since that takes away time I should be spending on hard subjects, like Math. Eww, Math. I do believe I'm at a 61% right now. NOT my strongest subject... I would LOVE to get at least a C+ (67%), but I really don't see that happening.
What else is going on? Hmm... OH! On Friday the 28th, I'm going to the grad dinner/dance with Justin! Man, am I EVER stoked! Very nervous too, though. There's going to be cameras EVERYWHERE... *gulps* Oh well. I really don't mind cameras ALL that much- it's just when they're being shoved in my face, resulting in horrendously unflattering pictures of me. Eep! So for future reference, if you really want to take a picture of me for some strange reason, just ask! Okay, so I won't say yes for sure (if I just finished eating and suspect teeth tragedies, or if my hair resembles Albert Eisenstein's...), but there's a chance I might. And if you DO get a picture like the ones I just described... delete, or prepare to die. =) Just kidding... kind of.
Well, I should go work on homework and chores! I'm hoping to get together with Justin later today, which will not happen if I don't get lots done. *looks at Mum*
Hope you all have a great long weekend! Ciao!

1st day of semester 2
Hello all!
So, today was the first day of semester 2. I have: A) Math 11 B) spare C) Socials 11 D) Drama 11 E) Choir/Vocal Jazz (alternating). Phew! It's only the first night of homework, and boy, I have TONS. A huge math 10 review package, and a Socials essay, both due tomorrow! YIKES! Oh, and I forgot to mention, I've also got Earth Science online, which is an ongoing, horrible course. It's just so dry, and I have no interest in it...! Anyways, enough complaining. I really like my teachers! So hopefully they get me through the semester with what's left of my sanity.
I've got to go to bed- school starts at 8:00! =)
God bless,
Sarah

A GREAT day!!
Hey everyone!
So, today was a GREAT day. I thought it would be horrible, considering that I had to go to school during I week and take a Math quiz and a HUGE Math unit test. But... I got 94% percent on the quiz (not too big of a deal though), and... 92% on the SUPER hard one!! I've never gotten that good of a mark in my LIFE!! I was jumping up and down... =D Then, Justin came over and we studied and played DDR. I'm pretty bad at it but he's awesome, so we unlocked more songs. =)
Tomorrow I've got a big asthma test and an x-ray, so prayer would be appriciated! I'm a wee bit nervous. I've got another one soon after that, too. Yay. =P
Anyways, hope you all are having a good night!
God bless,

Good-Bye, Semester 1!!
Hey everyone!
Semester 1 is OVER! Well, I have to do my Math 10 provincial still, but other than that, I have this coming week off (to study)! I will definitely be doing some relaxing too, though. This semester, I had Honours English 11, Math 10, Concert Choir, and Vocal Jazz. Next semester, I have Math 11, Socials 11, Drama 11, Concert Choir, and Vocal Jazz. Since this is really my first year at my school, I don't really know many of the teachers there, so I have no idea what my Math and Socials teachers are going to be like. I hope they're nice!
Today was a good day. =) We didn't do much of anything in class since it's the last day, and Justin came over after, so I had a really great day!
Hope everyone is having a good night!
God bless,
Sarah

Sickness, sickness, LEAVE ME ALONE!
Warning: if you have absolutely no tolerance for a bit of complaining, go away. =)
Hey everyone,
As you can see by the title, I'm still sick, and seemingly getting worse. My fever keeps increasing then breaking, increasing then breaking, and my cough is so bad I sound like a weezle. (Wheezing, get it? Ha. Ha. *coughcough*)
Aaaaaaaaanyways, I missed school today, and almost went insane! I missed my friends, since it's Monday, and I hadn't seen most of them since Friday, including Justin. But he stopped by today after school with my homework questions, and to see me. So sweet! =)
Hope you all stay healthy!!
God bless,
Sarah

A boring, though not bad weekend.
Hey everyone!
So although this has been one of the boring-est, tear-your-hair-out kind of weekends, I thought that I'd try to blog about something anyways. What did I do with my weekend? I finished up my final project for English, and am in the process of reading the book Obasan, so that I can write a summery/report thingy on it... for tomorrow... I've got about half the book left. =P Yay me... aaaaaanyways, my final project is a magazine, to do with Macbeth. I entitled it "Medieval Living", and included a crossword, jokes, a GROSS recipe for Haggis (I don't care that I'm Scottish, I'm not EVER trying it!), ads, and such. It's supposed to look modern since they obviously wouldn't actually have magazines back then, but I've themed it Medievaly. Yes, that is now a word. =)
Hopefully I get a good mark- it's worth a lot of my final grade, and I worked for HOURS on it!
On a less positive note, I'm sick again/still am sick. Everytime I think I'm almost better, I get sick again! This time is the worst I've been in a while though- chills, killer headache, dizziness, etc. Please pray that I finally get rid of this sickness!!
Well, I hope everyone's weekend was good!
God bless,
Sarah

Happy New Years!
I hope you all had a great night- I know I did! Justin came over and played a board game (Settlers of Catan) with my parents and I, and then we all watched Hairspray. =D He won the game of Settlers... beginners luck! Haha, just kidding. He was really good at it! But I'm definitely not going easy on him next time we play. =P
I'm so excited for 2010... I have a really good feeling about it. I'm slowly coming back...yes, slowly, but surely. It's not something I want to get into any detail about on my blog, but I went through a pretty rough patch in my life. But, I feel like I may be coming back to my true self, so I'm excited. =)
Anyways, back to homework... sigh. 2 books and hours of Math and Science... oh well.
God bless!
P.S.- So... my 12 year molars are still coming in at age 16? Ouch!
