dot.dot.dot.

Hello my fellow readers!
just wanted to let you know what's been going on lately in my life... (sorry it's personal and not more interesting)
  • this has been one of the most hectic/stressful/longest week thus far. i have had the biggest project for english (write a greek tradegy, 3 episodes, 20-25 minutes long; then act it out, have costumes, props, and masks!!) so it has not been very easy for me!
  • i have also been doing ACT/PLAN & PSAT testing... i'm gonna need tutoring for the real tests.
  • while i was doing those tests^, i missed my chemistry honors class, which is not a class i want to be missing. so i missed 2 days of chemistry, then i get an email from my teacher telling me to get the notes from the powerpoint he has posted online...so here i am, writing down the quantum #'s of an electron/atom, i dont even know what on earth im studying, and i have a test on it the next day! ... and when i go to ask the teacher for help, he was too busy. -_____- worst.study.ever. (in the end, i think i did well though-so that's the bright side of things)
  • Great News! because i had to rehearse for the greek play, i had to miss photography club ;( and one of the teachers in charge happened to pass by me the day before and asked me if i was going to be at the meeting; to which i sadly replied "no." he kept questioning me on why i couldn't make it, and that i should really try because...listen to this...I'm one of the best there! (I'm really good)! that made my day :D
  • then the day after the meeting i go up to the other teacher in charge of photo club and asked him if there was another assignment, (he said no... we'll be having a picnic instead, which i sadly cannot attend because .... *) and he said "i was like 'oh, Camila's not here today' ". . . i guess that means he was excited to see what i had in store for them.
  • i'm starting to see GLEE now...starting with season 1... i'm on disc 3 now. it's seriously hilarious! a total muuussstttt see!!
  • i'm reading the Harry Potter books! i'm so excited!! pro's: they're amazing- DUH! and there's alot of them... which i love! con's: because this week has been so hectic, i haven't been able to read at my normal pace / i highly dislike that i already have the movies stuck in my head; i'm not saying the movies aren't amazing or anything-because they are- but the problem is is that i can't even imagine everything in my own perspective-what the people look like, what places look like, etc. (for example: with twilight, i was able to come up with my own perspective on things, imagine what everything looked like, come up with my own images...and then when i see the movie, i notice if my mental images were displayed well.-with HP, that's not possible...even when i try, i still see the movie in my head -___-) but i will give the directors and set designers and the whole HP movie enterprise props for making it SO well! everything in the book is displayed perfectly in the movies ...(unlike twilight). pro: i cant't wait to get to the 6th book, where i'll be able to imagine some things on my own... except the people of course (aside from any new characters that might be visible).
that's enough for this post! to read the best of it all, go to the next post titled "I{heart}VD".

Much Love, Mila

Stress is a Mess

Friday, Sept. 3

I always stress myself out to much. Sometimes I consider it
"challenging myself" when really I'm just "wearing myself out". I put
myself in Chemistry Honors this year, thinking "this year, *as
everyone says* is the easy year in highschool, so ill just do a
difficult science since i won't be too busy doing anything else". But
I hate chemistry, with a passion. I can't memorize the periodic table,
I don't know what element it Fe, and I definately dislike atom/element
models.
So my first chemistry test comes along and I study hard, and
what do I get? An 84. I was soooo dissapointed, that that night, I
went home and figured out a way to get out of that class, and it was
an easy arrangement. Then I went the next day to my teacher and asked
him if it was possible. Answer: no. The only other alternative was to
change my whole entire routine(schedule) around, and I was not about
to do that. So here I am, in chemistry honors.
All I ask is that you
please pray for me!!!! I'm really hard on myself and I cannot get a B
on my report card! Its.un.accept.able. and on top of chemistry, I
wanted to do stage managing for my school musical in the spring. Now
if any of you know what stage managing is, you know how friggin
difficult that job can be. If you don't know what it is, let me put it
this way: the directors job can be done by monkey compared to the
stage manager. I want to do it, sooooo badly but I also have yearbook,
which might sound easy, but its not- its just as hard as stage
managing. So if I was to put myself under that much pressure=stress, I
would die. But I reeeaallllyyy want to do it, but I know I can't.

Even after all the consideration I've put into it, I'm still not sure what
I'm going to do, but ill let you all know ASAP. Much love!!

Hello Hello

its so good to be typing in this small box where i can 'compose' a daily
word for you all! ive missed blogger, even though ive only been gone
for about 3 days. but i wanted to tell you all how everything was going for me
because i seriously only have about 4-- 3 minutes now to type up some lil
things that have been going on. well the first day of school is always fun huh?
not exactly... but i learn to love the little things in life. this year might just go by
really slow. why? because {2 minutes} i have the randomest people in mu classes.
its seriously odd. aside from that, it isnt as exciting as last year. this year is supposedly my
"slack year" {1 minute!} and i can already see how im going to be falling asleep!
but i will put up with it and let you know some extra details at the end of the
week! OH, and theres a harry potter weekend on on abcfamily this weekend! {no time!!}
and i hope to be able to watch it!
Love you all,
Mila
