Feb. 25, 2008 - The life of a senior

Busy, busy, busy. I am so exhausted, blah. I am now taking my GED March 13th, instead of the 6th because it was full. This means another week in the stupid class. It is so easy it is boring. You want to know what we did today??? We learned where to put a coma in a sentence. A COMA IN A FREAKIN SENTENCE!!!!! I though I was going to go insane, seriously. Here is one of things we had to do: Put a coma where it belongs in the following sentence: Three of my favorite foods are pizza ice cream and macaroni & cheese. Anyone over the 4th grade should know that you put a coma after pizza, ice cream, and the word and. Oh and in math, we are doing percents. I mean come on, are we in 5th grade people?!?!?! I have to sit in this class for three whole hours, and if I hear another cuss word or sex joke, I am going to scream. Don't these kids have any manners?!?!?! Please somebody come and save me, I do not think I am going to make it. Anyways, tomorrow is MSHSAA, which is competition for our theatre arts. Mrs. Wilson said we are one mini step away from greatness. Tonight was our last dress rehearsal and we loaded up the truck. We have to meet at school at 7:15 am and my mom is not happy about driving me to school early. Since I have started this stupid GED thing I had to give up my afternoon classes, which included my AP Literature, and I was very upset about having to give up that class. So I dropped down to Language Arts III with the same teacher and she is incorporating AP stuff into LA III for me so I don't get to bored. We just finished fairy tales (my passion) and now we are doing poetry. I couldn't be happier. We started with haikus and I was going to post the ones I wrote, but I can only remember one, so here it is:

Lacing up my slippers
I dance en pointe across the stage
I am elegant.


Now we have to pick any poem and illustrate it using pictures, music, videos, acting it out, etc. I have decided to do "Fairies" by Rose Fyleman, which was my one of my MorMor’s favorite poems, and I am OBSESSED with fairies, actually beyond obsessed. When she died, we got to draw something on the box her ashes were put into. I drew a fairy on a swing in a garden because of the poem "Fairies." I was going to act it out, but with my insane schedule, I decided I am just going to do a slideshow of pictures. I have found countless photos, but I can’t find a good song. The song has to illustrate the poem. Any suggestions for the song would be greatly appreciated. I really wish I was in Maryland, because my bestest friend Meagan and I use to build fairy houses, and I want to use photos of those. But alas, I cannot. Oh drat, I just looked at the clock and I am behind schedule. Maybe I could turn the clock back an hour, ha I wish. I have so much more to blog about, but sadly, I must go now. Au revoir loves, Sara

How are you? I haven't heard from you in such a long time!
Hope you are well!
I can't believe they are having you work on commas in that class... weird!
But they have to keep with the public school kids who dont know where commas go...
Have a great day!!
Love, Prayers, and Blessings,
Miss Amanda
