Just a Bunch of Little Things

A bunch of little things (hence the title) have happened lately or are going to happen soon.

It's reading week, which means I don't have to go to school un the 23rd. I find it funny that they tried to make it look educational by calling it reading week. Come on, like anybody but me is going to read anything but text messages in the next nine days.

Two families in our ward teamed up and are on a cruise to Florida right now, which means half the youth are missing. Well, half the YW anyways, I guess only three young men are gone. I have to admit I'm a little jealous, I kind of wish I were on a cruise right now. This isn't helped by the fact that it started snowing again. Gosh! I swear it hasn't gone above zero for the past four months.

Over the break I'm planning on finally getting my license. I've been pretty chill about when I'm getting it, but I'm having my brithday in a couple of months so I need to get going. I don't know why it's such a big deal, I just don't want to be 17 and without a license.
My borther in law offered to let me drive his truck on some uninhabited roads by the highway once I get my license. That should be fun - no sarcasm intended. If it's unihabitted then I won't hurt anybody, except for my brother, but he can get over it. He was the one who offered.
I've always been terrified that I'm going to hurt somebody when I'md riving. I swear I can paralyze myself for life and total the car, but as long as I don't hit anybody else I'm okay.

I'm also considering getting a job at the hockey arena. I have a friend who's been working there for a while and says that it's good, as far as minimum wage jobs go anyways.

February 9th was national pizza day so my friend and I went to Boston Pizza for... pizza. While we were there (I can't remember how this came up) but we were talking about me being the only "good" Mormon in our grade last year and she randomly blurted out that she wished she were Mormon. And quite frankly, this is ever Mormons dream! I stayed pretty calm and asked her why and then invited her to one of our activities, but inside I was screaming something like. 'Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh! I've been waiting my entire life for somebody to say that!'. I'll let you know how that goes. The way she said it kind of made it seem like she'd been wanting to say it for a while and it didn't sound like a random thing. She seemed pretty serious. I'm pretty sure of this because I asked her if she was serious several times before inviting her to an activity.

On a completely unrelated note, I took my earings out and plan on keeping them out. I hope they grow over, which they probably will. Quite frankly I'm tired of having a metal rod through the lobe of my ear. 'Cause yeah, that's just how I roll.

Rugby and Badminton try-outs are coming up soon. I'm excited for both and seriously hope I make both. I'm gunna need to start jogging again. The fact that I stay thin no matter how much I eat has me in the illusion that I'm in good shape. Ha, yeah no.

I think I've so far failed to mention this, but I'm writing a novel. Well, trying to anyways. I should probably put some of it on here. Just a little, so you can grasp an opinion on good or bad of a writer I am.
It's an intermediate science fiction about a girl who thinks she's from Mars. At the beginning you don't know whether or not she is, especially since I've casually mentioned that she has all the symptoms of schizophrenia.
So anyway, I've written 20 000 words now. I get excited every 5000 words to be honest, but 20 000 just seems like a noteworthy amount so I'm mentioning it.

And yeah, I think that pretty much brings this blog up-to-date.
