Wow... so, ummm... yeah....

So I honestly never thought that I would be depressed about not having to go to school, especially on a friday. Then I started writing a "To Do" List. Not smart, I know. Instead of sleeping in until afternoon, I am going to spend a perfectly nice autumn day inside, doing homework, college apps, and chores. This is insane! How can anyone be expected to read 10 pages for one class, study for 2 tests, do 2 practice tests, write out a list of vocab words, write a college essay for english, write about 6 personal statements for colleges, answering about 15 physics questions, reading Hamlet (which is really quite fantastic!), finish about 3 handouts, memorize another 10 songs for choir, study for a sea scout competition, and everything else...

I suppose I sentenced myself to death when I signed up for my classes and extracurrics. This kind of sucks now, but it really did seem like a good idea at the time. I still need to send in about 5 college apps, which means I am majorly SKREWED! I don't even have a prompt for the essay I need to write for english. I have no clue what to write about. How am I suppposed to help someone get to know me through my writing, when I don't even let them get to know me in person.

Well, my intention in writing this was to describe my utter amazement at the outrageous workload that I have over this 3 day weekend, but re-reading this even I think that it sounds like all I'm doing is whining. There are bright sides to having a day off. I mean, I get a chance to work on all of this stuff. Oh, and I got a chance to call a person who works in the field that I'm planning to work in. After talking to her, I feel GREAT! I feel like I'm on the right path. I've gotten accepted to one college at least. Chaminade is in Hawaii. They have some of the programs that I'm interested in, so it is definitely an option. I just need to remember that there are till colleges that I am applying to. I can't start slacking now, I need to stay on top of these college apps. I don't have time for SENIORITIS, so it's a good thing that the SWINE FLU wasn't too bad. THANK GOD FOR STRONG IMMUNE SYSTEMS!
