Graduation was...

Graduation was on the 7th, but I am going to talk about it now.
There was a lot of photography. Most of the photos my mother took. Which is totally great because I wouldn't have them on Facebook now, if she was so persistent. There are over 500 pictures for graduation 2010.

That's me with my silly face!

So there weren't any butterflies in my stomach. There weren't any jitters. I wasn't nervous at all before the ceremony or during. The jitters came right before they called my name. I mean I wasn't nervous, I was over excited. Over excited with content and relief and every positive (non-sexual) feeling in the world. The ceremony was approximately a hour and a half. There were many speeches. My principle tried to crack some jokes, only the PTA laughed. And I believe they laughed because they knew no one else would. After all that stuff (speeches, awards, honorable mentions, recognition), they started calling the names. By the way I was the fourth girl to graduate. How cool? Yes it was. And once I got my fake diploma I shouted out to the audience "WOOOHOO!!!!!". I am very special person, becuase I am the only one expressed my happiness everyone else just smiled for the camera and went back to their seat. What a bunch of boring people. Oh well. There was one guy who did chest bump our principal, but it was in the script. And another guy who kissed our principal's head, but it was evident... Okay yeah I think I am done for today.
I am burning daylight. Peace out homies! And comment please.

Memorial Day

Hello my lovers,
So how was your weekend? Was it good? Mine was AMAZING!!!!
You may ask why? Well let me tell you why. First off I went to Harrisburg,Pennsylvania for the weekend. I am apart of this youth organization and three times a year we all meet up from different sections of the Atlantic Region. Mainly Maryland and Pennsylvania.So with in these two states, we have the Greater Washington chapter, the Baltimore chapter, the Philadelphia chapter. there are many different types of mini chapters in between. Anyways why would you care about this? Because I do. And I was one of the chapter Presidents for the Greater Washington chapter. How cool right? I know I am so special. And a bit conceited, apparently.
I went to Hershey Park!!!!!! I t was so much fun. I sat in the front of Storm runner and in front on Fahrenheight and in the middle(lame) of Tidal Force , which is the coolest water ride ever because no mater where you sit or stand on the bridge you get completely soaked. By the way I can't spell. It';s so sad. Then I got some henna yeah.. then I bought a hot dog then this and that and this and then that bla bla bla. Does this remind you of a Ke$ha song. side note....

Then out of no where came the drama storm and it was BADDDD.Look at my two headed goldfish. neat-o! I love DISTRACTIONS!

So this weekend went pretty smoothly , emphasis on the smooth, until dun dun dun!!! our chapter coordinator decided to tell our whole region(approximately 200 people or so. That we have a new President for the up coming year. Which was a total shocker. It didn't affect me as much as it did my co-president. Because I am graduating in a week so I won't even be here next year. (By the way this youth group is only for high school). It was... um.. how do I explain this? Well first off the new president was supposedly best friends with my co-president, who is also my best friend. So on his(new president) part he was a shitty friend not telling her(former president). It ruined a beautiful night that could have been. And so I decided to try to help , support her, you know what friends do for one another. But I truly believe it's our coordinators fault. It was so embarrassing and he(douchbag of a coordinator) is messed up anyways, My thoughts are going to be scattered in this blog by the way. I really hate drama. So yeah. I don't know what more to say. basically friendships were broken. trust doesn't actually exist in life. And bad people should be in hell.
Wow that felt good to write and spread on the world wide web. Yay!!!!!!

Okay enough about this topic. New topic!
So I just got a text from the drama people I mentioned above.Blarg!!! (that is the sound or frustrated human being)
new topic please...
By the way let me just say I love the fact that I got comments on my last blogs!!!! I feel special. you know how you get that special feeling inside and you never want it to leave? Yeah that's how I feel and I don't want it to go away. So don't stop commenting!!!! Or else I will find you and hunt you down... Maybe... I am feeling kind of lazy right now.

Also in later news, I have a car! I know I am soooooooooooooooo (emphasis on the "sooooooooooooo") happy. But I truly feel responsible to drive with out parental guidance. I may be a late bloomer, but I am thankful. Even though I have had my license for almost more than a year. Sarcasm.

Oh I want to try something:

hello all!

Hello!
Sunday rhymes with Monday and that's what tomorrow will be. Which means school.. yay... OK not really, but at least I will be learning something constructive in my time right? Right. I have to say right because we, students, are supposed to be learning something that will benefit our lives and help us when we reach the real world. Technically we are in the real world already. We are alive. Check. We are able to start working, part-time anyways. Check. We can control everything we do. Check. So what are they preparing us for again? Oh right for college. That's why all these overloading assignments are piled on to use before we graduate. The faculty wants to give us as much work as they can before time is up. It's like a race against time and all the teachers are trying to compete against each other and see which one can give more work to us before the whistle is blown. Let's see what I have on my agenda from now until I graduate. Daily in-school work. Daily homework, assignments and projects. Internship. Senior paper. Researching a topic for my paper. Researching the material for the topic for my paper. Finishing the paper before the internship starts. Have I ever mentioned I'm a procrastinator? Probably haven't. Well I am. So I haven't really started on any of these. And I realize that's not so good. I will get to everything eventually, though.

I went to the mall today. I browsed around. It was a nice experience. I also saw Avatar(I know it came out like a month ago, but I never really intended on seeing it because I am not much of an alien sci-fi person). And it was such a great movie. Like wow. This movie better win some kind of award. It was fantastic, and surreal. "I see you" Wow the bond between Jake Sulley and Netiri was so strong and unbreakable. I cried at the end of the movie when Netiri runs into the portable and saves Jake helps him back to like by putting on that breathing mask. She revives him to life. That movie was not what I expected at all. No wonder the box office is still sold out with with in 20 minutes or so before the movie begins. If you haven't seen Avatar yet, go see it! That's a command. It was so brilliant beyond words. Go see it!

I have to prepare for exams this week so I will be ending this entry right now. :)

Midterms= H.E. double hockey sticks

Hello lovely, lovely people who like to read, in general.
Do you think I'm too innocent for not spelling out hell in my title? That's so cute. But I am not innocent, like that anyways.
Today was a long day. To explain "long" I will do it without pausing until I finish, yes I am being repetitive. Which means no punctuation. Well it started with an exam I had two hours to complete it then I finally completed it two hours and fifteen minutes later Is that even possible no but I did it then I had a one hour break which flew by super fast then next exam same process. OK I need to punctuate from now on. I have a thing that I need to punctuate. I took English for two year in this private school and the teacher instilled this method to punctuate; now I can't live with out it. If something is incorrect grammatically I will know and I will fix it.

So now I have five more midterms to go. English is tomorrow, how ironic? Very. I really can't wait to finish the last one next Thursday. What a relief it will be, to relax and not worry about studying for anything else. Plus, second semester seniors! That's when we are allowed to slack off. At least that's what everyone else is doing. I caught a bad case of senioritis* in sophomore year. And I have had this virus still with me, but for midterms this year I actually made an effort and studied. For real. Many students, my peers, think I slack off and don't take school work seriously, but I do. Recently.

I realize that this will be another short blog entry. Due to the fact that it's one-ish and I have another exam tomorrow. But before I go I want to make a shout out to all the people who read my blog. Thank you. I am saying this not to sound even more conceited than I sometime can be, but I am saying this because one of my friends told me they read my blog religiously and I truly appreciate it. Thank you again.

Good night. Farewell. Avedazen (I can't spell). Ado. To you and you and you and you and you. Imagine the Sound of Music playing in your mind as you read.

*senioritis= when a person about to graduate high school, in most cases, decides not to decide. Just to do nothing at all and doesn't care anymore about the school assignments. Symptoms to look for: sleeping in class,talking back to the instructor of assignments, rude and random comments randomly in class full volume, and any other disruptive or incompetent behaviour. If your son or daughter or both have these symptoms, then they may have a case of senioritis.

Day 2!.. eh

Hello to the people my blog interests. So today was a quite ravishing day!... -_-
Today I was actually thinking of what to write here tonight.

So I turned in my history paper, but it wasn't good enough. You want to know how I knew it wasn't good enough? Because my History teacher handed it right back to me and told me that my 5 page outline was not part of his requirements. To my dismay he was right :(. SO.. What do you think I did? I wrote the essay in his requirements as best I could. Just now. I just finished it. It's due tomorrow. And now it's 3 pages long. I feel pretty accomplished.

What else happened today? Well I ate lunch... by myself. This is a very sad thing. I usually have many friends who surround me and I feel so wanted and loved. OK that is a lie. I do have friends, they just weren't around today or busy with "their" stuff. Which I totally understand. I mean to be a little bit selfish I would rather have them to myself, obviously. Do I sound a bit conceited for writing that? Maybe I am, but who isn't now a days. I mean we all want the best for ourselves. We all are self absorbed and only want what will benefit ourselves, right? Right :)

Unfortunately, in todays' times, the world has turned into "survival of the fittest". Especially trying to get into college. Today it is very competitive to get into a good school. They only want the best. But what exactly is the "best"? Who ever get the top grades, gets first choice in what college they plan to attend. And college will most likely choose the top students. Even if a struggling student puts in so much effort and still fails college won't care for them unless they can show it on their transcripts. But what if someone is trying every hard to understand the material? and puts in as much effort as they can? and crams all night to make sure that the work they will be presenting will be top notch. And the student fails or gets a lower score than they hoped for. This event will most likely bring a student's self esteem down, to a very low level. Then they won't want to put in as much effort next time.
In my opinion, colleges should evaluate prospective students on their effort and not just the letter that appears on the report card. There are students who put in the hours and want to get accepted to the colleges of their choice, but they don't make the grade. It's not fair! I, for one, would like to receive that acceptance letter come in the mail any day now. The wait for what my future may be or not be depends on six letter word. One word is positive. ACCEPT. One word is negative. REJECT. Both words have six letters, which makes the wait even more suspenseful. Which word will it be? The stress grows more everyday. The wait becomes more exonerating everyday.
Well that's a pointless way to spend my life. Once those letters come, I think I will be fine, no matter was the conclusion is. At least the wait will be over. But then the panic starts. If the "acceptance" comes, I am bound to panic on how to register and what to buy, and who to ask advice from. How will I want to spend my college years? There are two options: party like a rock star and drop out (everything I worked for goes down the drain, along with the tuition money) or I could study very hard, join different clubs and activities and become something in life. I can become a professional! wow! *sigh*
But what if the "rejection" comes? I will most likely freak out and say something like " Oh! My life! What am I to do with myself? I don't want to live at home until I'm forty." Or I might take the positive route and apply to community college. Yup that's what I'll do, very calmly.

Well I believe this is where I will end today
Please feel free to comment or ask anything you would like my opinion. I will be here tomorrow around the same time.
Good night world!

The First One

Hello people who read blogs! My name is Rachel and I just had the thought pop into my head that I want to write a blog. When I hear the word "blog" i think of online journal or diary. Yes that's what comes to mind. So that's what I will be writing about. I will try everyday to update you with every little thing that happens in my life. The good things and bad things will appear on here. I will let you enter my mind. I just want to write it all down so one day I can reflect back and say "Wow, my life is interesting, witty and full of surprises".

I have a passion for threatre. I have participated in many plays and musicals. I also love to see musicals and plays. I believe I favor musicals over plays because I also have a passion for music and dance. Recently I saw NINE in movie theatres. And it was fantastic. I went to the nearest Starbucks and bought the soundtrack. Everyday when Idrive to school I listen and sing along to it.

I live in the Washington DC area. I will become a legal adult on March 4, 2010! Yes, I am very excited to turn 18. Don't you ever wonder about the human aging process? I feel mature enough to be 18, but not biologically. Personally, I think that we should start counting the age from the moment we are conceived. Why shouldn't it count, I mean we have to sit for nine months in the womb of our mothers. At birth we loose nine months. Isn't it true that once we have a heart beat we are alive? I think so anyways.

Well that's a little intro about myself.
Please comment. If there are any topics you would like my opinion on please tell me. First off I will be flattered. And second I will give you my honestly blunt opinion. Plus I will answer anything in my next entry.
