Good News.....

Good News.......umm, remember that All-State Band tryout I was talking about??? I went, and it was SO AWESOME. Well, do you want the bad news first or the good??? I'll give you the bad. Bad news is, I didnt make the 5 drummers that were selected... : (......The good news is, I made 10th place. Out of 50 drummers!!!! I was the only freshman(9th grader) in the state that made the Top 10. The other 9 drummers in the top 10 were 10th graders. I was the highest from Mcdowell High!!! It was cool. Next year I will definetly make 1st. Honestly, though, that was 50 drummers picked out of the whole state of NC. Oh yeah, there was this black dude that was there, he was a senior, and he was amazing. I was hanging out with him the whole time. He was the best one there. This year I didnt really know what to expect. It was an awesome experience though. That news made me really happy. My band teacher was also really happy. That is the latest stuff.....

In other news, I havent been on in a while on occasion of me getting into trouble. Not that bad of trouble (actually it ended up being a large misunderstanding.)

But I still got in trouble. LOL. It is confidential, though. Stinks for you. Well, I have a Geometry test tommorrow, so pray for me....ok? Speaking of prayer, my Mom is coming down in a few weeks for the court date. A serious one. I really cannot go into much more detail than that, so the very slim number of people that read this, pray for me please....I would really appreciate it. : )

Ok, Bye.

Well....I'm Sleepy

I am too sleepy to tell about school. I am just posting to tell you that I will talk about school tomorrow. I have been working on my html stuff for about two hours. (Yes!!!! I was allowed. Thank You..... Mrs. Daily Grace!!!! ; ) ) Anyways, it is really hard stuff, because I am really in depth in it. It is like figuring computers out with letters. But, computers read only numbers....and letters are just a representative to the user of how the computer is working. It is all represented by codes. And I know a lot of codes. Web design is insane stuff. Really. It is really in depth. This is for like professional dudes. I am trying to stuff it all in my brain. I'm not into the begginner or intermediate stuff. It is like professional. Well, enough about me harping on that......sorry I'm really tired.....Yeah, if you are reading this right now, can you please tell people about my blog, or like email it around, bcuz I dont know a lot of people. Maybe you can post it in your blogs or something. It is okay if you don't. But try.Well, have a good night...Thank the Lord I have already finished my Geometry homework......

Have fun...!!!!!!!

Enjoying My Last Day Off.....

Well, I go back to school tomorow. Joy. I've been off for MLK's B-day and today is a teacher's workday. I am entering my 2nd semester. This semester I have all of my hard classes, like Geometry and Honor's English. It will be cool though. Next Saturday, I am going to that All District Band tryouts, so pray for me. It is really tough. Usually everything comes easily but this is like some Senior stuff.

Well, in the last post I put "I'm Trying" as the title, but a good friend of mine reminded me of one of my favorite quotes......."DO OR DO NOT, THERE IS NO TRY" Now whoever reads this blog, guess who says this quote....Leave it in my comments. There is one person I know that reads this that CANNOT leave a comment.....*You know who you are....* Anyways, just try and guess for fun. I will tell you next post, or give you a few days to figure it out. I am going to go by that quote. A smart person says that....(You will be on top of my cool list if you guess correctly).

I'm not sure if many of you know, but I am into website development, (html\css\javascript\ etc...) and I am working on making a website. It will be awesome, and I will post the url when I finish it. You all will love it. I am gonna start on it next week. It will be a nice surprise. For you.....and me. It will be awesome. Well, wish me luck for school, and with the web design stuff. (I love computers, bad thing is, I barely get to use them. When I get my own.....man, it'll be on then!) Lol. Anyways, I will tell about my classes next post.

I can never think of a good ending....So....umm....bye....?

I'm Trying....

to have a positive attitude.....seriously....*I say as I TRY to smile...* No, really. I really want to have a positive outlook and view on life. But it is hard. Seriously. I have been in bad moods lately and not being that bright.....like I used to be. I used to be happy and joke around and smile even when there was nothing to smile about. I have no idea what happened.

Well, actually I kinda do. A mixture of puberty and lots of really explosive events. But, I am going to be more happier. In general. I really don't like being in the dumps because then I am not an encouragement to anyone. And I really want to be. Or, at least, try to be. I am in the process of getting FUSSED at to go to bed (I had 3 minutes). I have to go. Have a nice life....Till next Time....hahaha.

Umm......Sorry? Will An Oath Make It Up?

Hey Guys.......umm....long time no see.....Please don't kill me. :) I really wanted to post, but every time I was allowed on the computer I had to do other things. Well, life is pretty well these days, yes there are things to complain about, but whats the point? We all have to continue to lead our own lives, so lets all help others with their problems, and we dont have to worry about our own. MARK MY WORDS.....I am making an oath.....I WILL CONTINUE TO BLOG MORE. There. I made it. So you all can say "remember your oath?". and get mad at me or something. Anyways, I seriously am gonna have to post more so I dont have to write a novel each time I update you guys on my life. If any of you see me in real life, remind me not to say "yell" and say "fuss". For example, ....Matt says,"Man, I wish _____ would stop yelling at me!" I would have to refrase that to "blah blah blah blah ______ fussing at me". You know what I mean. Just remember that because I have a tendancy to be quite dramatic. *hahaha* Well, life is.....(like usally) preety fast at times, then at sometimes massively slow. I passed all of my classes this semester with an A's and B's so that is good.( I should of had all A's though). Next semester I am gonna have all my hard classes...:(.....It snowed, which rocked. It was awesome. We sled, and one time I was goin down the hill and went strait through the briars and went onto the road. *Laughes Histerically* Ahh....good times, good times....Im outta school until Wednesday.....which is good, so I have no excuse not to blog ...hehehe. Well, have a nice life, and I will talk more.....Ya'll come back now ya' hear????........no really....please.

What's New...

Well, I haven't posted since Christmas Eve. Which is bad, I know, but I have very good reasons......1) I don't have a computer.....to my own name....2)When I do get to use it, I have a limited amount of time. Anyway, Christmas was great! I am very thankful for all the stuff I got. We went up to Ohio, and had a pretty good time, then I saw my mom up there which overall, went pretty good. Then, we got a dog...It is a Golden Dooldle. (Mix between a golden retriever and a poodle.) We, (after endless brainstorming of names) finnally ended up naming it Madeline....Maddie for short. We also had a revival at church (3 days) and I played a lot of basketball. Everybody at the house has been sick(except for me) so I will probably end up getting it, because I am at school right now, and I feel like I have been hit by a train. Seriously, this morning I woke up, and went into the bathroom, layed down on the floormat, balled up a towel and went back to sleep. I almost missed the bus, which would of stunk, because today this dude that has been in the National Drum Corps (this really huge professional band with awesome drummers that march on the field) is coming to our school to help the people that go for the All- District Band (State Band) auditions. Me!!!! I was the only person in my school to make the band tryouts for the All-District Band- Snare Drum. So that dude is going to try and help me with my solo for when I go to Wake Forest in a couple of weeks to try out. Well, I am extremly tired, and I think the bell is about to ring, so I am going to go.

"Ya'll come back now, Ya hear???"
