So today  was an average day, and I am so confused, I feel so lost in English I feel like there is just some kind of miscomunication between the class and Ms.Banister, and I feel so lost in the class. Besides English I am doing pretty well in school this quarter so far, I think. I have not been doing the glogs up to par though, I am putting more effort into the writing aspect of the blogs but I have not been keeping up with the pictures so I think I will add pictures to my blogs today so they can look nice and complete. After I finish doing that I plan on goinf my Biology homework nothing to hard just a make up lab and some online articles to reply to, I will be doing this while I enjoy some chicken and baccon pizza, which should be here around 5:20 since I just ordered it at 4:33.

Today I missed school, guess why I missed school, my father would not get out of the bed this morning no matter what I did he just was not in the mood to get up, it is times like this I wish I had my license because I don't like to rely on people if I could do it myself. I was a little disapointed this morning because I do not like make up work, however, I did have a quiz in health today and I could have used a little more time to study so that is what I did, and I feel pretty confident now. I wanted to study for my biology test for tomorrow but nobody knew what chapters the test were going to be on so I just looked through my notes. I finally had some fast food today, I have not had fast in like 3 weeks, when I had that Taco Bell I was in heaven all the cheesey spicy goodness it was so mouth watering. Ummm I got in trouble today and after I did it I felt like a major jerk, soooo my little brother was hitting me in my leg a lot and annoying me so I  punched him in the shoulder and he started crying. When I saw him crying I had to hug him and say im sorry even though he is so annoying I still love the little guy hes my baby brudder, not brother, brudder.

The headache from yesterday carried over to today and turned into a migrane. My mother and I suffer from migranes it has been this way since I was little I get at least 3 headaches and 1 migrane a month, that is a lot. Even though I tried to keep a smile on my face in school I was in a lot of pain but I didn't really wan't everyone worried about me for no reason, so I played it off as best I could despite the way I was feeling. After school my father picked me up and we headed over my grandmothers house, as soon as we walked in she was in the living room I gave her a big hug and laid down right on her lap and she pet my head. I have no idea why but I love being pet, even more when I am not feeling well it comforts me and actually physically makes me feel better. I know that sounds weird dont't ask me why because I do not have the answer, my cousin noticed that I was feeling well and she gave me some asprins and they soothed my migrane a tiny bit, though still being there it was not as bad and I was thankful just for that. I have muster up the brain strength to fnish reading this book for AVID, wish me luck.

I woke up today with a slight headache it is one of those headaches that is isolated to a certain part and this is one of the worse cases and the headache is located right behind my eye. It is such a weird feeling because it's like a headache and then it hurts when its bright that combination is just so anooying to deal with. I enjoyed my week so much that I forgot that I had homework, thank god I opened up my agenda book and saw that I had things to do. So I dedicated this day and I named it homework day, I like this routine though so I might make all Sundays my homework day and just get everything done all at once, it is easier to do it all at once instead of doing one thing stopping and starting back up again because at that time you don't feel like doing anything. Since thanksgiving has passed the next big holiday is Christmas and I am so excited for that because I want the new call of duty, pajamas, and some slippers. I don't think thats to much to ask for I really want all three im tired of wearing old pajamas, and I cant fit my slippers, and who does not want the new call of duty!

11-26-11

Today I went over my grandmothers house to see her and my cousin and too eat some of their food, and it was as just as good as the food at home, even a little bit better, my grandmother knows her way around the kitchen, I think that is true about all grandmothers though. While I was over her house I cut her bushes in front of her house, there were only 4 bushes, she wanted to pay me to cut them but I don't charge my grandmother anything for me to do small stuff like that for her. I usually shovel her walkway during the winter time as well, I get the neighborhood as well but I charge everyone else 10 dollars, I usually make like $60 in a couple hours during the winter time. After I got home I went straight to bed for some reason I wa really tired today I think it was all the food I had been eating, all the delicious yummy mouth watering food, I want more just typeing about it I think I will get some yams after I finish this, that's a good little snack.

11-25-11

Guess what I had for breakfest, the same thing I had for dinner yesterday. Guess what I had for lunch the same thing. Guess what I had for dinner, The Same Thing. This food is hitting the spot everytime I eat it. Didnt do much today just hung out with thee family because this is one of my moms off days, so we sat in my parents room and watched movies together. That was basically the highlight of my dad, more food and more family, was really nice. This early in the week and I am already thinking about how I just do not want to go back to school, and I have not had enough I just want the break to be a little bit longer because so many other places had more time off then we did, that kinda dissapoints me. I just have to accept it though I guess, it's life it is whatever you make it and I choose to make it good, at least I got to learn two days more then everyone else, now whoes jealous.

HAPPY THANKS GIVING TO ME!!! AND YOU!!!!, Today is thanksgiving, this is one of my most favorite holidays of the year, why you may ask? I love food oh so much, and man was there a ton of food at my house. This year we decided to have thanksgiving at home instead of going to my grandmothers house, at first this made me sad untill I saw all the food that I could have all to myself. Turkey, yams, greens, rice, mac and cheese, rolls, pasta, and cabage, the food was amazing and after we finished eating we had a ton of left overs. That means that this thanksgiving is not going to last just one day, but all week, I will be eating this mean for days, and this is one leftover I do not mind. Even though the food was amazing it was not the only thing I enjoyed about it, I really loved just sitting down and eating with my family because we rarely sit down with each other and dinner time and it was a really nice touch to this amazing day. I enjoyed it so much I told my mom for my 18th birthday that I want a thanksgiving style dinner, I can not wait untill my birthday only 11 months to go, I am so excited.

Today was the last Food RAG that I will attend as an AVID scholar, this was the sad realization of today, even though it was a really nice event I am going to miss being around my AVID family and being able to share with them. All throughout my years being in AVID the Food RAG has always been my favorite event because as a class we are able to learn more about each other and then enjoy AMAZING food. Even though everyones stories were good some where more heartfelt then others, the two stories that really seemed to be personal and mean something was Jacquynn's story and Amber's story. Jacquynn's was so personal and emotional and it was nice that she felt comfortable enough to share such a story with us it really made me fell like AVID really is a family. Even though Amber's story was not about a person it was still about family,because a pet can mean as much to a person as a real family member and I conneted with Ambers story because I also had to give my puppy up. Also the food this year was really really reallygood, there was such  variety of food this year, I think that is what really made this years Food RAG something special. I really will miss this next year.

I am not really excited to go to college, I feel like it is going to be the same as high school, except there will be different people and a new and bigger place. Other then that I fell like school is school. I am not really worried about not getting my work done because I am not the type of person to party, I honestly am just not comfortable doing that kind of stuff and I doubt that will change once I get into college. I am kind of nervous that I will not be able to connect with some of my professors and I feel like that will be a problem because I do not want someone who will be a jerk to me because, if you know me, I surely will be a jerk right back. I feel like that kind of tension could make my college life a bit difficult and that is just not something I want to deal with. Mr.Carney said that someone who is not afraid to fail is someone who does not care if they succeed, I do not agree with that because I am not afraid to fail because it will not happen, I have worked to hard to get where I am and I am not just going to throw everything away, not after everything I have been through. So I am not afraid to fail because I will never allow that to happen and I do wan't to succeed because I wan't the future that I have planned out for my self and if I stay on the right track, which I will, I can make that future a reality.

Today I am still sick and I am so tired of this already it does not feel good at all, despite the way I felt I was tired of doing absolutely nothing so I used the extra time I had to fill out some college applications, and I was able to complete 3 applications. I felt that me doing that was a good accomplishment because before this I had only filled out one application even though I did get accepted I felt like I needed to do more, so I did. Even though I still don't feel well I am planning on coming to school tomorrow, however, now my dad does not feel well, I think I gave him my sickness. Since he would not be able to bring me to school in the morning I went over Brooke and Brittany's house a.k.a my second home, and spent the night so I could catch the bus to school with them in the morning, it was either do that or wake up at 5 in the morning get ready and go over their house anyway so the first choice was much much better and I got to spend some time with my sisters. I enjoyed the time over their house we had so much  fun just goofing off and they made me feel a little bit better in my time of illness.

11-19-11

This is the second day of my sickness and it feels no better then the first. The pain is worse as soon as I wake up and seems to soothe more as the day goes on but even when awakening from naps that is when the pain is at it's climax. I think it may be because I breathe through my mouth when I am sleep when I am sick, and that might be what is making my throat hurt so much. Today was just like yesterday I tried to stay under my covers as much as possible. I got out of bed to try and take a hot shower, however, the water did not want to get hot today so the shower was not as refreshing as I thought and wanted it to be, that shower was so quick I just wanted to get in and out and right back into my bed. I got a little scared today because when I coughed up some cold there was a little bit of blood in it but that only happened once so I didn't think much of it. My cat kept me company all day while my dad was running erands with my little brother and my mom was at work.

11-18-11

Today I woke up and I was not feeling well at all my throat hurt so much it felt like I was swallowing nails, I had a really bad migrane, and I kept getting hot and cold and hot and cold over and over again. Since I was not feeling well I was not able to come to school, I honestly did not like that because I really do not like missing school it is so tough to catch up in school if I am missing important days. I pretty much lied in bed all day under my covers even though I would come from under them when I had a hot flash. Once my mom came home she took care of her big baby, she made me some soup and a nice cup of hot tea to make my throat feel better, while drinking the tea my throat felt amazing, however, when I was finished it went back to hurting. I really do not like being sick. Worst of all because I was sick I was not able to attend Kennedy's birthday party and that made me really sad and made me feel worse because I really wanted to be there with her on her birthday because she was there with me at mine. Kennedy I am sorry I was not feeling well I really wanted to come so bad you have no idea, I really wanted to be there, I hope I can make it up to you some how.

11-17-11

I was having an amazing day the morning was surprisingly plesant. When I wake up I am usually in a bad mood but I woke up and I felt so relaxed and rested, that is just the way I like to start off the day. I was having such a good day in school until I reached 4th period. I do not know what happened but I suddenly felt really bad my throat began to hurt, I got a head ache, and I got extremely hot, I felt misreable. After 4th period I caught the bus home and laid down in my bed, after about a two hour nap I woke up and I felt so much better my throat was feeling better, my head ache was gone, and my fan kept me nice and cool. I have no clue what could have caused that to happen but I hope it does not happen again it was not a nice feeling.

As you know I had my biology test last Friday and today I got my grade back. Just as I expected I did really good on the multiple choice section of the test, however, I did not do so well on the BCR section of the test. Since I did really good on the multiple choice and somewhat bad on the BCR my final grade was an 82 percent. That is not bad but I really wanted an A, and was kind of upset about the BCR because out of all the choices the one I got was the only one I was not confident on if I had gotten any of the other BCRS I know that I would have gotten an A. After school I went over Tiffany's house to help her study for calculus. Helping Tiffany go over chapter 3.1 it brought back all the horrible memories of me being in that class, to this day I still can not believe I got my 1st D and C, it just saddens me when ever I think about it. Even though it makes me sad it also motivates me and it will never happen again because I hated that feeling so much and I refuse to feel that way again so in a way it is a blessing and a curse. When I got home from Tiffany's house I was surprised with some macoronie and cheese I love moms mac and cheese it is so cheesey and gowey and just makes my mouth water just typing this is making me want more so I think I will get seconds.

Ok so I have three foods in mind for the AVID food rag and they are all extremely delicious, even though I have these in my mind the story is a different, that is the part I am struggleing with. I don't just want to write oh yea I tasted that food and it was good, I liked it, the end. Honestly thats what I am at right now so I have to figure something out, im sure once I do my story will be pretty good I have done well in the past so I am sure I will do pretty good this year. Besides stressing out about my food rag I have been laughing all day, I don't notice it sometimes but I have really good friends that brighten my day, and there was nothing really going or today or anything specail but I just felt happy. Other then me being in a good mood today was just another ordinary day. I really want to go see Tower Heist when I came home I saw the preview for that movie like 5 times, it looks hilarious, I think I will go see it sometime this week or over the weekend. I can not wait, I have a feeling it will be even funnier then Jack and Jill.

A couple hourse after waking up so around 9, me my dad and my little brother decided to go to I-HOP. Surprisingly when we were out eating my little brother was actually well behaved and we were able to enjoy eating and it was a really nice time to spend with the both of them. After we got home I cleaned my room because it was a tad messy and I was tired of looking at it. After I cleaned my room I took a tiny nap because I woke up around 7 and I was a little tired, after waking up from my nap my mom was home from work and me and her made plans to go bowling with her co-workers. Sadly once we arrived at the bowling alley only one person showed up so we just made plans to go bowling next week. So instead of bowling we picked up some dinner from Taco Bell and as everyone knows I love Taco Bell, so that made up for us not bowling, OMG I LOVE TACO BELL! So overall it was a pleasent day today.

breakfest

    lunch/dinner

I woke up this morning and I was so hungry and there was nothing quick to cook in the kitchen so me being the wonderful chef that I am I decided to make the delicious treat my cousin taught me how to make, Deviled eggs. Those deviled eggs were so amazing and I enjoyed making them because the yolk mix that I did not use on the eggs I got to eat by it self, that is the best part. After I made those deviled eggs I went in the room with my dad and my little brother and we all watched spongebob together, and children find it funny but if you pay attention there are a ton of innapropriate messages in it that show that will make you giggle and believe me that is what I did. After watching a couple episodes of spongebob it was lunch time and we ordered take out, and OMG that food was even better then my breakfest. I am such a fat kid because food makes me so happy, so a tip for anyone that cares if I ever look sad just give me some food it will cheer me right up. When my mom came home I ran to the store with her, while she went in the store I waited in the car. I don't know what it is about me being in a car by myself, but I cranked that sterio and had a party session by myself and once again I was caught by a stranger, I think I made their day.

after my bio test

My movie crew

Second movie

Today was a really amazing and fun day I wish everyday could be like this. The day started off with me taking my biology test I felt kind of shaky on the bcr's, but I know for a fact that I aced that multiple choice section, so I was kind of nervous to see how it works out but I am confident as well. Lets hope for the best. After school Tiffany came over and we just passed time until it was time to go to the movies with Angela and Larry, and before we left my dad took us to Qdoba, and the food is crazy good. I think I found a new favorite resturant. Once we arrived at the movie theater we realized that we looked at the wrong times so we were like 30 minutes late to go see the Harold and Kumar movie, even though we missed some of it that movie was so hilarious and had so many moments that made you just go OMG! After we saw Harold and Kumar we could not leave because we were just having so much fun so then we went to go see Jack and Jill. Now Jack and Jill was even better then Harold and Kumar, and the comedy was clean, but man was it hilarious I reccommend everyone go see that movie if you do not laugh you have no soul. That was my day and it was amazing T.G.I.F.

me being embarresed

my B :-p

So I was extremely pumped today to go ace my biology test today because I studied for it and I was ready, however, I did not exactly ace it. I got a B on it, I know that is still an ok score but I was really hopeing to get a higher grade. I  made the mistake of mixing up incomplete dominance and codominance so that cost me two points that would have been helpful. I am still pretty happy with that score though, so now I have to study harder that way I can be prepaired for the biology test tomorrow. After I came home from school I went to the store with my mom and I sat in the car while she went into the store. Ok so you know those moments when you do something embarrsing thinking no one will see you, so I was in the car llistening to the radio and for no apparent reason I started dancing my butt off to Katy Perry, and as soon as I did that someone walked past the car and started laughing. That was such an embarrising moment but it also made me laugh. Also today's weather was awesome it was so cool and had a nice breeze and it was not to light or to dark it was the perfect inbetween.

It has been known for the past week that I was accepted into Harrisburg University, and that in itself was exciting news, however, finally recieving the acceptance letter in person is a different story and brought those joyful emotions back. Today was a really great day, I was able to fix my grade in AVID, so I think that means I will finally get straight A's. I have been attempting to do this FOREVER, if it really happens I am going to go crazy with happiness. After talking about life with Dona and Mr.Carney I guess I sound extremely depressed so I guess that means no more depressing blogs, maybe. I have decided that I will have to find at least one interesting thing to do everyday that way whoever is reading my blog won't think I am a weirdo. So I hope this is the starting point of a happier blogger Nick, :-p.

sexy book

Oh snap the time has come again another Biology quiz and a test. That's right I have a quiz on thursday and then friday, the very next day I have a test, I am a smudge nervous but I know I can pull it off. I just need to go into hyper drive study mode and review all my notes on chapter 12 and 13. I have been doing extremely well in this class and I really wan't to keep it up because honestly it is a really enjoyful class. Even when we take nots in there it is fun because our class discussions are always interesting and have some sort of humorous attribute to them. This unit was genetics and was actually pretty easy, but then again I am like a biology genius, ehh maybe not, but I am pretty sharp in that class. I just have to keep it up and keep studying so I can maintain my A.

T.G.I.M, Thank god it's Monday, that is not something that you hear often. However it can be said every Monday if you beilieve that you are capable of making your day a good day, and maybe even brightening the day of others around you. Sometimes I can be a bit pesstimistic and may not always look at the world in a cheerful way but after watching T.G.I.M the obvious hit me right in the face. Everyday is a blessing and if something is not they way that you want it to be do not just wait around for someone to change it for you. Make a change, you have to be the force that will brighten your day when someone or something may attempt to dim it, having this outlook on life allows you to be cheerful on anyday of the week be it Friday or even Monday. So instead of T.G.I.M how about T.G.F.L, thank god for life, because as I said before everyday is a blessing and you have to look at it that way.

Today I ran erands with my mom and just stuck with her all day. When we woke up we went the the grocery store and we got some snacks for around the house, and some juice, we havent had juice for a while been drinking water. After we were finished at the store we went over her friends house so my little brother could have a playdate with my moms friends son, thats a tounge twister. After we came home from the playdate, the car was looking pretty dirty, so me and my mom cleaned the car together, she did the inside while I made the outside look nice and sparkly, I am such a good car washer. After that we were pretty tired and we came inside and watched a movie. I enjoyed spending time with my mom today, her offday schedule is kind of weird so I don't get to spend a ton of time with her because she is always busy, so I am grateful for the time we got to spend together today. I love my mama.

11-5-11

So today I did not do anything, that would include eat. I have not eaten anything all day and I was starving untill my mom came home and she took me to go get some Chick-fil-A. That food hit the spot and made me smile as if I saw a unicorn riding a double rainbow while eating a bag of skittles. That food made me so happy and completely stoped me from being hungry. It is kind of sad that me getting some Chick-fil-A was the highlight of my day, but oh well because it honestly was and I really, REALLY, enjoyed it. Well now that my stomach is full of chicken and french fries I think I will call this the end of the blog and say good night.

my lv 70 glory

So today I felt like being a game nerd again and I played my computer game again. After all the time of me playing I finally got to reach lv 70. which is the highest lv that you can get so congratulations to me, but it kinda sucks. If anyone plays video games the hole point is to achieve the goal or something, but when you do finally achieve it, it kinda feels like you have nothing else to do, so that kinda blows. Around 1 I went to the movies with my mom, little brother, and his friend, we went to go see the movie reel steal, and it was a really nice movie, it could have used a little bit more action but it was a good family movie, and I guess that was the point. Overall today was a pretty cool day, I technically finally beat a game and I got to hang out with my family so that was pretty cool.

11-3-11

Today started off really slow because I did not go to sleep untill like 4 in the morning the night before so I was really tired this morning and did not want to do anything. I felt better after I woke up from my nap in 1st period, the funny thing is that even though I napped when I woke up I was still able  to finish my work, I thought that was pretty cool. I got to walk around with my senior stickers on my face that was really cool because I am a senior, I am a senior, I am a senior, it feels good to type say and live that. I have early release so I did not get to go to the pep rally because I did not feel like waiting around, but I heard that the pep rally was not all that good, so it looks that I did not miss much. Besides going to school I did not do much, and I came home and went straight to bed and that felt so freaking amazing.

11-2-11

Today was an awesome day, for those of you who didn't know today is my birthday, and I had a ton of fun today. The good things began starting off with the seniors victory in the powder puff game, of course we were gonna win so it was not a huge surprise. After school I came home and while I was watching TV I got a phone call from a number that I did not know, thank god I answered because it was the admissions department at Harrisburg University calling me to inform me that I was accepted, that made my day, and my day kept getting better. Around 6:50 I had a small dinner at pizza hut with a few friends and it was a nice small gathering and we just stuffed our faces with pizza, wings, bread, sticks, and cake. After my dinner I did not want the day to end so we went to the movies, and guess what? I finally was able to buy my 1st legal rated R movie, and actually be allowed to see the movie without being accomponied by an adult, or sneaking in like I usually do, but NEVER AGAIN!!!!!

11-1-11

Today was seemed like it was going to be a good day everything was goin on fine, however, as soon as I got home from school my head started hurting really bad and I did not feel good at all. Honestly I do not feel all that good right now either.
