Back to School:(

On Thursday we go back to school. I AM NOT READY TO GO BACK. I had a really great summer! This afternoon I went to Freshman orientation and walked my classes and met my teachers. I am happy that on Thursday I don't have to go to early morning classes!

Some summer highlights were...

• Teen arts bloopers



• Teen arts in general



• Starting Cross Country



• Getting my school permit! (My mom doesn't like the high insurance)



• Family vacation to Colorado



• Mission trip to Mexico



• Steven Curtis Chapman/Jeremy Camp concert!

Some goals I have for this year....

• Getting up at 6 to do my quiet time with God.



• Do my best in cross country (That won't be hard)



• Get to bed at a reasonable time.



• Keep my locker clean (At least my half)



• To TRY and stay positive about band. key word try

1st Day of School!

Welcome to the 8th Grade!

First day of School!

So today was my first day of school! For one it is too soon to be starting. Even though we are one of the last districts to start in Iowa it still feels like the summer was too short! The day started off with going to school with my mom as I did last year. But this year unstead of riding the bus, I am walking! But today I got a ride from another teacher that has a kid in my grade too because we had so much stuff! I was early but there were already a lot of people standing out front. But none of my friends were there yet so I just stood there. Once the bell had rung I went to my locker! And what do you know, I opened on the first time! When I went to Orinatation it did not open very often! I went to homeroom. We just went over expectations. I get so tired of the expection talk in every class! Then I went to gym. I was a little late because I was lost! But it was not a big deal! I was a little late to my 3 class but she knew it was becuase I was lost! Then I did the rest of my classes and stuff and got out of school at 2:25 today! It was a better first day than I thought it would be!
