a MONTH?!?!

Oh jeez, I can't believe I've been gone so long! I'm wicked sorry, but I've been really busy with uninteresting stuff. Nothing really blog-worthy. But let's see:

VT -
On January 29th, I left after school for a Y2Y conference in Vermont. It was just an ovenight thing, where we got back at dinnertime the next night. The hotel "resort" we stayed in was UBER creepy. It was a place on a lake, but the lake was (obviously) frozen over.* The staff had plowed an ice rink on the lake, so during our lunch break we got to run around outside on it with our sneakers.

During the conference itself we were given two each of three presentations. During our second "History of Lies", there was a women in the back who thought everything we said and showed was hilarious. She cackled the entire time! Then we had two "Presentation Skills" presentations. Our first group didn't want to do anything - our workshop is very interactive and I had to be the "Volunteer Nazi". Then, during the break before our next presentation, three school groups left; our second audience was just one person. It was an adult though, and we just spent the whole time chatting.

On the ride back we stopped at Wendey's for dinner, and I got a picture of their sign.

Mmmmm, what else has happened? I survived...
* Midterms
* my Q2 Report Card
* World Language (nearly comatose)
* more snow
* some drama over an early-released book I received over the internet
* becoming addicted to Psych and Burn Notice
* some fun times with IBeatYou.com

And what about the future? Let's see what's coming up:
* "8 Things" presentation to my grade
* Art class this quarter
* selecting my courses for Freshman year
* shoe shopping and possibly a hair cut



Wow that was a long post. Sorry about that. Peace OUT.

Do I get to help dictate your shoes? I need laces... so that means trip to Portsmouth over Feb break.
