  Selective Parts of My Life (Last Weekend, This Weekend, and Beyond)

  This is my first blog I am writing with the new te.com format. I am been pretty busy and haven't gotten around to blogging but I don't have much hw tonight because I didn't procrastinate and already did math and English and I don't have history tomorrow. I do need to study for my law test. School has been keeping me pretty busy during the week but I think I am actually having more fun this year. Its hard to remember. I am not going to mention all the things I have been doing the last week or two because its just been all the normal after school activities.

  Last weekend was fun but I got a cold. I am better now. I am only going to talk about the important things. Saturday night I went to this event at the park. It was so much fun but there were creppy people there getting drunk and high and having sex in a car (we were there until 11:00). I was happy the guys were there. I am so glad the guys were there. We made s'mores and shoko and ate chocolate. We played ultimate Frisbee and man hunt and made these really funny commercial. They probably thought we were a cult during Havdalah and cheers. Sunday I went to this giant Jewish festival and worked the BBYO booth. It was fun but I felt crappy because I was sick. Also, I did this thing where you post your phone number and people text you there secrets and you text them your secrets (through postsecret). I texted so many people and got some life changing responses. I also go some amazing texts send to me and made new friends.

  This weekend I have a chill night on Friday. I have to watch the debate for homework (assuming it happens). I might go out with friends after school. Saturday night is the Barbie Night that I co-planned. I think it is going to be great. The event (for BBYO) is going to be with another girl chapter. Sunday I am going to a pool party with a bunch of other BBYO chapters and maybe going out to dinner with some family friends.

  The Convention I am planning is a little over a month away and the things I am planning are really falling in to place. I am planning a program with another girl. We have a theme and a goal and guest speaker decide on we just need to determine times and choose and opening and closing activity and get supplies and talk with the speaker. The other program I am planning with another girl is a talent show so we need to advertise and pick an order and pick prizes and all that stuff. I think everything is going to turn out fantastic. I have been spending 30-45 mins working on stuff for the Convention every day.

  What is everyone doing over the weekend? Have a great Friday. Thanks for reading.

  My Normal But Crazy Life

  I haven't blogged in almost two weeks because I have been so busy. I am not going to talk about everything I have done. I have been really busy with the normal stuff- BBYO (events/planning stuff/meetings), flute, hanging out with friends. Everything I said I was going to do two weekends ago was a lot of fun. The dance was cool because I saw people I haven't seen on a while and I love dances. Last weekend my BBYO chapter threw a surprise baby shower for our adviser. It was so fun. Last week I had one test Thursday (in the class I didn't have Friday) and five Friday (which is a test in every class except PE). I did good on some of the tests and bad on others and on some I don't know my grade. I wish they had been spread out so I could study. I have a chem project due tomorrow and a chem test on Thursday. I am worried because the teacher said the test was going to be hard and its a really hard honors class. I also have a math test Friday which I need to study for.

  Because they re did out floors we didn't have furniture from Tuesday night until yesterday (Monday morning). We stayed at a neighbors house Thursday and a hotel Friday. Now the kitchen is almost done (just finishing details that will take a couple weeks).

  Tonight I have a BBYO business meeting. My flute lesson was canceled so my friend came over and re-watched OTH with me. I sobbed through the whole episode (the first time). Does anyone have any favorites on ANTM?

  This weekend is really busy for me. Friday I have Girl Scouts and then a birthday dinner to go to. Saturday afternoon I am watching a horror movie and a comedy and going out to lunch with my friend Mariya. Then Saturday night we are having an event with our brother chapter in the park and making s'mores and doing some other games. Sunday I think I have to go to this festival because at the end we are having another meeting for the convention I am planning (we had a conference call Friday).

  Thats about it. My life is pretty boring. Thanks for taking the time to read my rambles.

  Its Been A While.../Good News

  I felt the need to make this announcement at this minute.

  I was chosen to be on the steering committee for the next regional convention (that means the planning committee). It is seven people total plus the Regional Sh'licha and Sh'liach. I am really exited. If anyone knows of any good mixers/games/activities (especially ones that have to do with religion/social action/community service).

  Sofigured I should blog because its been a while. I have been pretty busy. Memorial Day weekend was amazing but I'm not going to recap what I did. If you are curious- its in my last blog. Everything was fantastic. School is picking up. This week I had two quizzes and I am starting to have a lot of homework (around 2.5-4 hours per night including flute). Tuesday I had flute and a BBYO business meeting (which was long but so many people came which was great!). We also had an Assembly where they announced the homecoming theme which I will talk about a ton when it gets closer (but this meant school went an extra hour). Wednesday night a had a YMCA business meeting. Then I watched Sarah Palen's speach. What did you think about it? I am going to keep my opinions about that to myself to now because otherwise this blog will be 10 pages long. Overall, I was bored and didn't like it. She didn't seem very smart and most of the speech was irrelevant. Ramney's speech made my sick. I thought the speaker's at the DNC were so much better. Today after school I went out to eat with my friend and then we hung out at her house for a while.

  Tomorrow we have a half day. I might go out to eat and then I have Girl Scouts. Saturday I am going to a BBYO dance and will be out probably until around 1:30. We are going to a friend's for dinner on Sunday night. I will probably make more plans for the weekend as it progresses. IU have a lot of homework including a project and we have to start packing up our entire downstairs because as part of the remodel they are refinishing out floors. It really sucks. We are staying at a neighbors for one night and at a hotel for the other. This means we have to bring clothes, make-up, toiletries, text books, backpack, bike maybe, laptop, etc with us.

  As far as tv goes, I have watching more Friends and Scrubs as well as SLotAT, GG, OTH, PJ, and 90210. They were all okay. I will watch ANTM on the Sunday Encore (my tivo was full). I am excited for more shows to premiere. What new shows have you guys been watching? What are you weekend plans?
