The pep rally was pretty good. I liked when Dr. Tanner got up and danced. It sucked that we lost and the football players were giving it their all. The band sits in the inzone now and now we have footballs being kicked at us from every direction so thats cool that we get to catch them but half the time we don't. We will win this week though.

I think the fans do make a difference with how well we play. When the fans are pumped they and we are cheering them on they want to deliever a great game and keep us on the edge of our seats. Pretty much if we don't care the football players don't care, and then we have a sucky game and we lose and then we are all mad. So tonight I hope we are pumped up and ready to win.

This week has been the most stressful one yet. Crazy homework, test, the first game is friday and we are not ready for halftime. We don't know half of the dances, we have the flag routine down but we have to learn 2 new dances and clean 2 other ones. Drama on danceline, that sucks so bad because then we get even more stressed out, I'm breaking out. It just hasn't been a good week. I'm ready for friday night, its going to be fun but I just hope we can get everything together in time.

What are three unigue things about me. I don't know. Um one would be that I'm differnt. i actually don't care what people say or think about me, some kids will say that and it wont be true, but me its goes in one ear and out the other. I always stand up for what i believe in, or if a friend needs me. People that know me know a lot about me but I would say the most unique thing about me is that i used to have a extra finger when I was a baby.

My favorite saying is "Never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game!!" There could be a million reasons or excuses to not try something new and I have done it sometimes. When i think of that quote though I think why not and I do try something new, like a new club, sport, a new kind of food, a new toss with my flag even though 9 out of 10 times I always hit my head or arm. It hurts but its always okay and trying something new is always fun. So Don't let the fear of something new keep you from what you want to do.

My weekend was pretty good. Friday night i went out to eat with my parents at the catfish house. That was some good popcorn shrimp lol. Saturday I slept in and then helped my mom clean up and then got ready and went to waycross with Josh and saw Micheal Staci at Cypress Creek. He is a country singer he isn't big yet but he sure could sing any song you knew and it was fun because I went with Josh. Sunday I went to church, then walmart, then i washed and cleaned out my car.

Sometimes I think highschool is more work than usual. Especially when you have a major project due and your printer wont print. Practice till 6 and then you get home, eat dinner, do homework, and your staying up till 10:30 to do one project. If you don't have a project and you have homework then it's homework, a shower, and then bed. Teachers screaming at the class to stay quiet, 40 people in a class, not staying on task or just asking someone behind you a question. Finally it's friday, the last one before football games start, which I'm ready for. No teachers, no projects hopefully, no practice, just chillen with your friends and not worrying about anything for at least 3 days. Oh yeah fridays are defintly my favorite days of the week.

There are 5 things i can't live without. One is my cell phone, I have to talk to my friends and knowing me I have a question about a project or homework. Another thing would have to be my mp3 player, music is like my escape anytime I'm mad or upset I listen to music and it can usually calm me down. Number 3 would have to be my doggie, lucy, she's my little protector even though she is like 2 feet tall. The fourth thing would have to be my licence if I don't have those I can't drive and evenever I can I drive. Number 5 would be my family, if I didn't have them I really don't know what I would do or where I would be today.

Our half time show for band this year is pretty good. It's quitar hero and we get to dance with quitars, but after your done you have a ton of glitter on you. The songs are Livin on a Prayer, Walk this way, Walk the dinosour, and American Woman. Even though its a lot of work going to band camp, learning routines, getting frusterated at Mr. Myers making you go back and forth to the same spot, and having practice eveyday it's really worth it on friday nights. I'm so ready for the first game it's going to be a lot of fun, but I'm hoping i don't grab the wrong flag or drop my flag on the first show that would be embarrasing.

The class that I like the most is U.S. History, and I'm striving for a high A in the class. I like history the most because you can learn so much about all the differnet countrys and continents that you never knew before and my teacher is pretty cool even though the class is a little hard we are learning a lot and it's a challenge which I like. Yeah, I know call me crazy for liking a challenge.

I don't think we need to. That is a little extreme because no one has been reported with swine flu. If no one has it then we shouldn't wear the mask and even if someone did have it i don't think we need to. Just keep everything sanitized like washing your hands and make sure if you have a cold or if you are sick then just make sure you cover your mouth when you cough and sneeze.

I have visited Florida, Tennesse, and Georgia. I have not been out of state to much just on vacation and I always love it when we go somewhere new and I can explore. I have lived in Douglas GA my whole life, love it, but I do plan to travel when I get done with highschool and might even go to college in another state even though I highly doubt that.

One goal this year that I have set is to do the best I can in all my classes, and in any sports I do; like band, danceline, and tennis. My other goal is to just be myself and do things my way not my friends or my parents way. I'm trying to get a job to, I work sometimes with my dad when he needs it or just needs someone to pick parts up, but I want to get a job of my own to show that I can be independant. My next goal is to be single for a while so i can focus on school and band,and not get caught up in any drama thats just flat out pointless. My last goal for this year is to make my parents and myself proud of me.
