I know I am not supposed to come back to the forum, but i have gotten many e-mails questioning my exsisance. Well, im still alive and yes, of corse I miss all of you. I guess i can fill you in on whats been hapening in my life since ive been gone.
I got my braces off, and now i have retainers. My teeth look beautiful and the funny thing is, i look older (not su sure if that is a good thing). I take my licence test on December 1st, i really hope i pass because that is the day i turn 17! (i know, im so young right?).
Band has been keeping me really buisy, i have tuesday night practices from 6-9 and i am gone every saturday till late or early sunday. But hey, i love band. Recently i started teaching myself how to play the tuba/suzaphone, its a lot harder then i thought. And a whole different cleff and style of playing then my original instrument, my clarinet. But, i love a challenge.
School has been tough latley. Junior year is really challenging, but i have 5 a's 1 b and 1 c+/b- (in algebra). Ive never been strong in math, but im working on it. It has recently gotten tough for me to focus in school because my family suffered a loss 2 weeks ago, and im the one who found him. The whole experience has really hurt my in an emotional way and ive been trying to cope, but i still cant forget what i saw. My friends and my new phsyciatrist (mom made me) are helping me out alot and i started going to a church every thursday for Epic (a really cool teen thing for highschools in California). Ive only gone twice (the night i found him and last week) but i really hope i can keep going.
Today i am leaving for camp. Im going to be a counselor at a camp for 5th graders. Its called out door education, its a way to teach the kids a lot about mother nature and the beauty of california that they wouldnt recognize unless they were shown. And i went to the very same camp with my school when i was in 5th grade. I loved it so much, i still have vivid memories and i even remember that i cried the last morning there because i didnt want to go home.
Im still working, but i dont know if im working that much lomger, we have a new manager who doesnt like me and watches me like a hawk. Not that i do anything wrong, but she has complained about me a few times. So, we will see how that goes.
I havent been writing at all latley, i seem to have run out. I do have 2 new poems i wrote a week ago to let all my feelings out but thats it.
Well i have to be going. Have a wonderful day!
Love Always,
