oh me oh my

School is digging me and early grave.

It's been two weeks since I last posted, mostly due to the fact that school has been slowly but surely increasing my already at risk blood pressure by piling on the work and expecting me to do amazing. Coupled with the fact that the Mets have been just so stressful and heartwrenching to watch (and who are playing their series deciding game seven as I type), and that it's my "special time" of the month, and I've just been having a peachy time.

On the topic of my time of the month, I feel I should share something with you that may affect my health/well-being in the near future. I recenty switched brands of inserted absorbency products, and I figured that was the reason I was having troble getting them to be comfortable. However, when I was changing one today, I felt something odd down there. So, I reach down, and theres another string. I pull, and another absorbency oad comes out. I have no clue how I came to miss it, since I'm ususally so diligent with remembering to remove them, but I also have no idea how old it is. Was it from today? Tuesday? Last month?!?!? I really don't know, and this could have serious repercussions on my health. I don't want to get TSS!!

So let this be a reminder to you women, who are now probably all of my audience after this post: Don't EVER forget to check your status down there. It could just save your life.

Peace.

school isn't exciting anymore

Holy moly, I haven't blogged in a week! Theres so much to talk about!

Let's see, where to begin.... How about with my three day weekend. I spent most of last weekend chilling, and did the usual stuff (bowling, homework, etc.), but it had three highlights:

1- Season premier of SNL, hosted by Dane Cook. It was hilarious, and those of you who didn't see it, I'm very sorry you missed out. And now you're never going to know why "liquid turkey sandwiches" and empty poland spring bottles are funny
2- Mallratting with my buds on Sunday night. I love going to the mall just for the sake of going to the mall. I did pick up a few things, but I really liked to just hang out with my friends.
3- Running with my friend. I know, it sounds crazy, right, but it was fun to hang, and I felt better about myself for actually going out and running and getting exercise just to get exercise.

Of course, starting with Prison Break on Monday, I've been watching my tv shows. In addition to PB, there's Heroes (my favorite story lines involve Hayden Panetierre, Milo Ventimiglia, and the Japanese guy, I think the characters name is Hir, how ironic), Gilmore Girls, Veronica Mars, and Bones. House has gone on hiatus until November (maybe Halloween) because of baseball playoffs, but I'll be forgiving, since baseball's the only sport I really care about.

Tuesday and Wednesday were maybe the craziest days of this school year so far. Tuesday, I had to stay after school for mathletes, then had to study for to big tests and a quiz on Wednesday, and I almost had a panic (! at the disco- sorry, couldn't resist) attack. Then on Wednesday, I took said tests in math and chem, and said quiz in English. I got a 91 on the math (which is eh) and a 97 on english (which is ok, just because I should really get 100s on vocab and spelling). We also got a quiz back in French (100), and a composition back in English (B).

Now, I have a dilemma. My English teacher said we should come see her ninth period if we got less than a B+. But I got a B, do I really need to go see her? I think it's a little pointless, don't you?

Wednesday, I also had fall play auditions. My audition time: 4:40. School officially ends at like 3. So I had two hours, since of course auditions ran late, to do absolutely nothing, and be really nervous. Even my friends who do sports got home before me. And I found out today I didnt even get in the play (sadness). The one good part: I saw Steven with his shirt off. Hehe.
