Valerie and I got 'phinxed' by Isaiah. I was in panic for a long time but Valerie knew what to write right away. I was jealous!! I think she wrote about " Great Expectations" and I remember that she was very focused.

FIRST QUARTER REVIEW
To tell you the truth, I have been so lazy this quarter. I did all of my assignments but I did not try them hard as I did last semester. I know I should not do this but since I have been busy for last three and a half years in high school, I feel like I need a break.
For my senior project... I am actually really stuck on that. I want to make it special but I cannot think of anything right now. CWG and BQ, great.
Next quarter, I need to start motivating again for AP tests. I do not want to waste freakin' $81 worth of the test (DISGUSTING AMOUNT<yes, I am mad.>) And I will pay attention more in class, sorry Dr. Preston!
Suggestions? Before the AP test, we should work on some reading materials(?) Like those reading and answering questions thing. I really need to work on that.

I AM HERE
My SMART goal is to find my future goal. I have not find them yet. I still does not know what i want to study in college or what I want to become. AHHHHHHHH! Oh well, hopefully I can find them soon. My senior project... I still have no idea what I can do for that. I want to make it special but I have nothing special in my mind... yet. Collaborative working group? Well, I don't really like studying with a group but if it is a project, then I love collaborating. To tell you the truth, I am so stressed out about colleges that I cannot concentrate in school right now. I try to do all the homework and concentrate in the class, but I have no strength or energy. I know this is my problem and I have to fix it for myself, but (man...) I am so nervous...
