So after some intense studying, I took my AP Psych test today. I got an 88~! *fist pump* Also, I had to drop Latin 2 in favor of a Study Hall (taking two AP courses means I need more time to work). It was a hard decision for me to make, but I have a feeling I'll try to take it in Junior or Senior year. *cries anyway*

It rained so hard and quickly, there was water about knee deep in El Paso. It's probably not much for some folks, but to a City like EP that doesn't have a lot in the ways of irrigation it was a disaster area. Cars were getting stuck on the street, people's homes were damaged. I felt really bad for our friends, because the water had seeped into their home and basically made their entire bottom floor a huge mess. The damage was so bad in El Paso that they called it an official disaster area and had FEMA come in and help with repairs to damaged homes. A lot of the homes in the Lower Valley area of El Paso were pretty much wrecked, because all the run-off from the mountains came ended up there. I was registering for my Senior year of High School back then, so I ended up stuck at school for a good portion of the day until my Mom could come and pick me up (I wasn't about to drive in that kind of weather.) [/font] [/quote] Yessir! I forgot to mention that one! I was in a car on the way home and was driving on the mountain that UTEP is on, and I was in awe at the miniature waterfalls cascading down the mountainside. Some firemen came to our home and told us we may need to evacuate because the Rio Grande, being right behind our house, was flooding too fast to stop. And of course there were no drainage systems, so the entire city was in chaos.

Whoa. AP Psychology...IS FABULOUS. I'm surprised at what little time I have to myself now that school has started. Apparently, taking two AP classes involves a lot of work and time. Who knew?

Ugh. First day of school was pretty decent. I like my teachers, and AP Psychology was the most enjoyable headache I've ever had. BUT! I can not do my first math assignment of the year (an About Me questionnaire). Why? Because my computer won't open the online file without Adobe Reader. I tried to install it, but my computer keeps freezing up. I don't think I can get a ride into school early tomorrow in order to complete it at the high school, so that sucks, too. Also, my math class is second period. What a fabulous way to start the year. [/sarcasm]

Back in El Paso, there was a sandstorm so vicious that it took most of the city's power. It only got worse as the afternoon passed into evening. By 5 p.m. our small neighborhood was filled with the hum of generators, though you could barely hear it over the sandstorm. I was an idiot and decided to see what would happen if I went outside in the middle of this. I ended up with very bad bruising all over, I looked like I had taken a shower in dirt, and my eyes and mouth were still seeping sand a few days after the storm passed. The first year I moved up to WNY, I was excited for snow. It was October and I was asking my friend, "When do we see snow?!" She told me not to get excited because it wouldn't snow until late November. That very week, it snowed. I woke up Friday morning to darkness and my parents saying that school was cancelled. The snow was up to my hips, which was great! Of course, we were still living in an apartment at the time because we hadn't bought a house yet. We got out our generator and chained it to the apartment's stairway. We then proceeded to enjoy being the only room with power. Glee~! School was out for a week.

IT'S TOMORROW OH MY GOSH MAKE IT STOP HERE IT COMES SCHOOL STARTS TOMORROW SOMEONE HELP ME NOOOO!!!!!

Ugh. I babysat. Again. And as it turns out, I'm awesome at Disney and Nickelodeon Scene-It. I won at both~! School needs to slow down and stop charging toward me. I'm not ready yet!

[quote name='Miss Anonymous' date='04 September 2010 - 03:55 AM' timestamp='1283586928' post='700228'] I love that I just had to spend close to $180 on eight textbooks, most of which were used. I should be thankful though that at least none of them were $120 algebra textbooks or some nonsense like that. Oh, but I still have at least two more books to buy, on top of eventually paying for tuition. Woohoo! [/quote] This is one of the reasons I dread college. I'm coming down with a cold and school starts Tuesday. Someone shoot me already.

[quote name='Phenom' date='03 September 2010 - 02:36 AM' timestamp='1283495813' post='700196'] But Korey is evil for that Slippy video. [/quote] *high five* So very agreed. Sooo... I just found out that I have to babysit by my self. My sister has decided to stay home for some reason (she doesn't want to get up early). This is just peachy. Also, here's the reason why I almost overslept today: [attachment=14895:sleep.jpg]

You make a great cartoon character. I would love to hear the story behind that comic, although I'm pretty sure that's exactly how it happened that day. XD[/b] [/quote] Both of those were done at about 4 a.m. today. Thank you very much! I was at my cousin's house earlier this summer, as you may remember. She lives in a gated community that has golf carts with each house. She, my sister and I were all crammed in one and she decided to let me drive. In my defense, I get nervous and it was super dark.

[quote name='Phenom' date='31 August 2010 - 06:33 PM' timestamp='1283294027' post='700091'] I can't picture Gavin quarping. Nah, from what I remember he started most of his posts with "Interesting. Most Interesting." [/quote] I can. But that's because I'm strange that way. So I've been told... Seems like an awesome catchphrase, though! It'd be fun if he started doing it again...

[quote name='Phenom' date='31 August 2010 - 06:27 PM' timestamp='1283293655' post='700089'] Haha, Gavin's one to talk. Although I was still fairly new around the time he was doing the same thing. [/quote] He quarped as well?
