And the cycle goes on 11/30/2011

Today was like all of the others except for the fact that i had a test in AP Bio and in English 12. I know for a fact that i did well on my English 12 test, but i think i failed my AP bio test because some of the material that was on there i didn't really remember. Other than that my day went rather the same like the other days. So this year my father decided that we were going to do secret Santa. And we all had to put our names in a hat and on the same card as our name we had to write three things that we wanted for Christmas and it had to be above$10. So we all then picked a name from the hat and who ever we got, on Christmas day we have to distribute gifts to them. The gifts must be over $10 and it must be wrapped. The person that i got is pretty easy and i have a hunch on who have me. And everyone decided to get my grandfather something because of his disability. But any way I am really excited to see what everyone got for each other.

Shift Happens 11/29/2011

Today in AVID we talked about statistics and we watched two short videos called "Shift Happens". Those two videos made me realize that life is not going to be easy. It put me into perspective, and it made me want to further my education  because like one of my fellow classmates said "An undergraduates degree is like getting a high school degree." The jobs out there will begin to vary. And i also agree with Amber and Kennedy when they said that you can be the most unintelligent person and still be successful because as long as your doing something that you love to do. It will be like your own piece of happiness. I think you should live life to the fullest and worry about the other essential later because life is too short to be stressing yourself out over some of the littlest things that you can easily accomplish. If you try diligently enough and work for what you want there's no telling what the outcome may be.

Making some progress 11/28/2011

I am excited because me and my aunt have successfully set up a date when i am supposed to be going to driving school. I will be going to Elite Driving School, in February, and i am really excited about that. Other than that today was like any other day, except for the fact that my mom made turkey soup with all of the scraps from the turkey that we had from Thanksgiving. I have also completed my application for Hood College and the only thing that i have to do is to send in my transcript and then i will be done. And i gave the Ms. Dell the rest of the information that she needed to complete my application, so now I'm waiting for her to tell when she has completed.

My reaction 11-27-2011

Today i watched my Friend Khalil's video on YouTube. Which was of him playing the violin to various songs. I thought that it was amazing and he is a true artist and he is going places. I have also successfully finished my Hood college application and the only thing that i have to do is to send my transcript and then i will be DONE!!! Yay me!!!

ThanksGiving 11/23-11/26

So today i am going to write about all of the days that i have missed which would be 11/23-11/26. So on Thanksgiving I ate so much to the point that it felt like my stomach was going to bust wide open. I will show pics of the food that i ate as soon as i can find a way to upload it to my dads computer. I had an over all amazing weekend with my family. I was also excited to have had made Honor roll and hopefully i can make it next quarter too.

Tis another day 11/22/2011

So tomorrow I have to bring in my food choice for the food rag and there may be a slight dilemma. I am bringing my dish in a crock pot. And i also ride the bus so either i won't be able to bring my book s and stuff with me to school just to make room and or my sister may have to sacrifice her seat on the bus for me. I guess i will just have to hope, pray, and see how everything will go tomorrow. Today, like all of the others , was pretty much the same, although it was raining hard and my mother decided to go food shopping for thanksgiving. Yet so far today i talked to ms. dell about my application for Virgina union which i completed my part and she has yet to do hers. I am panicking a little because this is really important to me. So she told me that she will get it done over the our three day weekend. Boy i hope she does.....

My biggest fears: 11/21/2011

I pray that i can get into either Hood College, Stevenson University, and or The University of Baltimore. If i can get accepted into one of those schools, i will be the happiest person in the world. My biggest fear is that i won't be able to get in, i will fail all of my classes, be too distracted, and or i won't be able to afford it. I am also afraid that i will become home sick. I am excited to finally have my independence, and to be on my own. I am also excited that i will be the first girl on my mother's side of the family, who will actually go to college straight after high school. I just hope and pray that i will be accepted to one of those colleges and if not one all of them; and that i will be able to afford it. The only thing that i can do know is wait and see if i get accepted. Ugh.. The Agony!!!!!

11/20/2011

Today i worked on my AP Psychology homework and i think it is  unnecessarily too much because we were told to define a lot of words within a week. And also i looked outside and realized that it was a Kodak moment. I cleaned the house and ate a cleming time which is something i never heard of. I thought that a cleming time was a tangerine.

11/19/2011

I feel really grateful to have such a supportive family in my life. I also finished my application process for Hood College and also Stevenson University. I feel really accomplished. And i thank god for helping me to stay focused and motivated. Thank You Jesus. Now i just have to send my transcripts and then that will be a rap for those two. Out of the five colleges that i am looking at, i have applied to 3/5. So i have 2 more to go. Ugh the agony.........
 

Breaking Dawn Part 1 11/17, 11/18

This may be my first and last video blog so i hope you enjoy...

Two more day's until BD comes out!!! 11/16/2011

Today is that day that i was waiting for every since the movie Twilight saga Eclipse hit the theatre's. Finally it's here and now i can officially say that there are TWO MORE DAY'S UNTIL THE TWILIGHT SAGA BREAKING DAWN COMES OUT ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! I am so excited becuase me and all of my friend have been anticipating this day for the past 4 years now. And now it is finally here. I plan to go and see the movie friday at midnight which means that i may only have  a few hrs. to sleep and get ready for school in the morning (yet it's all worth it).

11/15/2011

I finished my application process to Virginia Union and i feel very accomplished. It took me two weeks in total to finish it. I also made honor roll, which surprised me because i thought that i was going to have to 'c's in two of my hardest classes, which are AP biology and AP psychology. The only thing that i can do right now is thank god for these big accomplishment.

Day 66 11/14/2011

I'm watching the Breaking Dawn red carpet premier and i am so totally freaking out. AHHH!!!!

I Need help....Day 64 11/12/2011

Today unlike any other was one of the most craziest days ever. First I felt really depressed and guilty for not going to the black college expo because i hear on face book and on my AVID family blogs that everyone was accepted to different colleges on the spot, how they got scholarship and also how they got full rides. And the only thing i did was cry because now i am even more stressed the reason is that  now i am waiting for a letter from Virginia union to know if they are going to accept me. Ugh..... Secondly my mother threw my aunt a birthday dinner party and that was somewhat of a disaster because i had no fun and i felt as if i didn't belong. Finally I'm sitting here listening to my cousins talk about how there going to college in Miami and in New York and the farthest i can go is Virginia. When will i have control of my life without out my parents controlling me all of the time. When!!!!! I need help to stay sane and i  also need to pray because only god knows.

SAT Olympics Day 63 11/11/2011

Here is a video of Amber from the house of Atlas answering her question.

Day 62 11/10/2011

Today was yet another ordinary day for me. I went home straight after school, Completed my homework, took a brief nap, made dinner, ate dinner, and then i watched the vampire diaries.

Why do i even bother..Day 61 11/9/2011

Why is it that when i go to school, i am calmed and relaxed, but when i come home from school my whole mood change. My mood change from being relaxed and  calm to stressed and annoyed. *sigh* I think the reason is that i get so much homework (which really isn't an excuse) and i practically do horrible on tests. And to be honest with you, most of the time when i do actually study for an upcoming test, it's just as if i didn't study anything because my grade will only go up by two points. Sometimes i wonder, Why should i even bother to go to school because most of the time it seems worthless. It's like the harder i try, the lesser it shows in my grades.

Day 60 11/8/2011

I just finished my edu.glogster project for my English honors class, while listening to the Twilight and New Moon soundtrack. I just love twilight, whether it the characters, the movies and or the books. I just can't get enough. If I was able to chose between either the vampires and or werewolves... I would choose none because every vampire may not be like Edward Cullen and he might bite me (i value my life). I wouldn't choose a werewolf because the littlest things make them angry and once again i value my life because what if he change in to a werewolf and I'm too close then what, there goes my face. So I'd rather be with Mike Newton because he is a HUMAN and i know that he cant bite, scratch, attack and or hurt me (with out force), and I will then just gush and crush on the vampires and werewolf's. LOL!!!!!

TGIM Day 59 11/7/2011

Today we watched the Thank god it's monday video and the hip-hop preacher was preaching about three points which were: See you Job (and or AVID) as a blessing, Throw away Toys R US kids card, and also Be the change. I need to change my procastination for the better because I stress myself out by bonbarding all of this work on myself, instead of work on my work ahead of time.

The challenge Day 58 11/5/2011

Today i spent the whole day playing Michael Jackson the experience game with my cousin cinnomin and boy did we have fun. Who knew that she had that much rhythm...... So my mother is challenging my aunt and her kids to a Micheal Jackson dance off, and every since we got the game, we've been practicing non-stop. LOL but it's OK because we are going to blow them away HEHE!! The challenge is set to take place on thanksgiving, but unlike everyone else i am going to stay in the kitchen and EAT!!! Its Thanksgiving for Christ Sake!!!! It only comes once a year....yeesh.....

BCCC Visit Day 57, 11/4/2011

Today i went with my mother to BCCC while she took a test, and i was in there waiting or her and i stayed there for over 2 hours. It was so long and hot in there.  Yet i was able to take some pictures.

And this is my mom in her lecture class...

Day 56 11/3/2011

 Yay seniors!!! I would have to say that this years pep rally was better than last years. Although when dance company was dancing you could barely hear the music and also the titanettes outfits looked a little too eye popping. Other than that it was really good. So I am a senior now. Wow never did i ever think that i would be able to say that. And god knows that i have been through a lot to get to were i am today.

What to do? day 55 11/2/2011

The more i think about my life the more i get depressed because i had so many opportunities to get things done. But i chose to wait at the last minute. This college stuff is so depressing and very much stressful. When my older cousin Charmaine applied to college, she made it seem so easy and fun, but now that i am in her shoes i somewhat want to ask her, what is so fun about this process. I have yet to hit the submit button for my applications because i am too nervous. I don't want to go to community college, i actually want to go to a university and or some college other than that. I really wan to live that college life without worries of paying off student loans. I just hope and pray that god gives me the strength to carry on with the  college application process. I guess i just need to let go and let god.

Day 54 11/1/2011

I made my first sale today. My mom is buying a shirt from me which is going to help pay for the AP exam. And she agreed to be my sales person so I'm really excited and hopefully she buy me something to because i really like the necklaces that  they had. And also today i beat up my little brother because he stole my ipod. His new nick name is sticky fingers.

Happy halloween!! Day 53 10/31/2011

Today i thought that i was going to go trick or treating and spend the whole day with my mom, but that didn't happen. So what i did was watch sponge bob, family guy, Simpson, and the Cleavland show. My sister handed candy to the trick or treaters, but since they were being ungrateful i turned off my porch light and kept my candy to myself. They need to appreciate that variety of chocolate that we had, do they not know that we are in a recession.
