  Finals OVER!/ Winter Break!/ California

  Blog Post- 143
  
  Hey everyone!!!!!!
  
  FINALS ARE OVER!!!!...Well as of Thursday anyways. But I'm bad at blogging! So.. I got everywhere from an A to a C on my finals, but my final grades were all A's except a B in Algebra II, which is the final I got a C on. But I'm excited to have freedom now. Or so I had hoped given that I have a project for my AP Geography class that is confusing, pointless, and p.o.ing me because Winter break imo should be UNTOUCHABLE for teachers, but whatev I guess.
  
  The good news in all of it is that at least it's winter break. I love these pleasant two weeks because they are so reflective and calm. And it's a family time, which I like (which surprises me half the time!).
  
  Crazy enough, on December 27th (next Sunday) I'm going to Cali for a week. It's going to be fun I think cuz I'm going to Seaworld and Disneyland and Universal Studios all within a week with my choir. So it should be really unpredictable, but definitely fun!
  
  HAVE A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  
  P.S. RIP Brittany Murphy

  Cranberries RULED!/2 TV show finales/AUDITIONS!!!!

  Blog Post-142
  
  To start out this blog, I have to rewind back to Tuesday the first. The Cranberries concert was incredible!!!!!!! Best concert of my life, and I've seen quite a few for a 16 year old. Anyways, Dolores O'Riordan and the band were just phenomenal and perfect live! Also, there opening act was one of the most incredible male vocalists I've ever heard. His name is Griffin House. Wow is he great live. I went home and bought like 10 songs, and he is truly an amazing singer/songwriter. So yeah, I guess.
  
  Secondly, given that this is TV.Com and all, I thought I'd mention some TV related stuff about two reality shows finales. Tonight was the Amazing Race finale, (which I have been secretly watching this whole year). I don't want to spoil it if you are a watcher, but I love two of the three final teams, and the winning team was the only one I DIDN"T want to win. Oh well. Secondly, Tuesday night (or maybe Wednesday. Wow, I should prob know this lol) is the Biggest Loser finale. So excited, even though I don't particularly have any favorites between Rudy, Danny, Liz, and Amanda. I'm pulling for either Amanda because that would be the fourth season in a row that an original pink team female has won (Ali, Michelle (who started pink, than adopted black), and Helen). I'm also okay with Danny. Liz I'm so-so with, and Rudy annoys me. So yeah.
  
  Finally, I'm panicking!!!! Tomorrow is auditions for our school play, "Beauty and the Beast". I feel confident, but that usually ends badly with me. Usually I need to be hyperventalating and nearly convulsing (from the nerves) to nail an audition. So I've been Sharpie-ing my lines all over my arm. i'm praying I don't blank them (which I did last year and had a total fail whale audition). Anyways, have a great start to the week!!!!

  Birthday/ The Cranberries concert/ Thanksgiving/ Break OVER

  Blog Post-141
  
  Today was my 16th birthday!!!!! It was a nice, very slow day, but very relaxing (which I can't be opposed to). My sister made me a cake and it was really good. My family went out to dinner tonight too so that was all cool. So overall, it was a great birthday even though it was probably my most simple birthday ever.
  
  For my birthday I got 65 dollars worth of iTunes cards (already spent a 25 dollar one!), some flannel shirts, and birthday checks. But the present that my jaw is still dropped for is that I got tickets to see the Cranberries reunion tour this Tuesday (12/1) night!!!! I'm so ecstatic right now. They are prob my fave band and to see them live will be amazing. I'll try to blog on how that goes on Wednesday-ish.
  
  Thanksgiving was also nice (yeah, i'm sort of backtracking.) I love the way Thanksgiving brings peace amongst people. It's just a nice time overall. We just had a nice meal and than played games and had good laughs. How was your T-giving?
  
  And finally, ending with the downer. Tomorrow is Monday again. The good news (besides The Cranberries on Tuesday!!!!!!) is I only have two weeks + finals week until winter break. Bad news- everything starts over again. I have a driving test, a play audition, a theatre retreat (could be good, could be disaster!), and of course... FINALS all coming up within the next 14 school days. So, I just hope it runs smoothly. Have a great day everyone!!!!!!!
