Research Papers

I'm finally able to blog again! :) Last week was homecoming and school became my second home. Thursday I stayed for 18 hours...18 hours at school is a long time, and I was only awake for 19 hours. So I was busy all week. I had to make up a lot of math homework on Sunday... don't worry! I got it all done, and I understood it. Saturday we went to Wet'N Wild which is a water park so I didn't have any time to do homework...which I was fine with. But then come Monday, I had school. Today I had two tests! One in AP World, that I feel pretty confident on and then Algebra 2. I felt confident on that one, except for this one problem that was out to get me, but hopefully my confidence will come through. But it is math, and with me who knows. So in AP World we have a rough draft due on Thursday for a research paper. My topic is why the fall of western Rome was more severe then in china with the Han dynasty. I have a lot of Internet resources for Rome, and my textbook. ;) But unfor

Cross Country, Choir, Dance, Naps, and School

Friday night was a football game and our team won! I went home with Savannah and then Christina came over too and we slept the night. Then that morning we got up at 7 in the morning and drove all the way to Titusville to see Kinsey, Adam, Mason and Derek run for cross country. We got lost a couple of times, but managed to get there in time to see Kinsey in the middle of her race and we got to see the boys too. It was fun and they all did really good! Then after that we drove back to the school to take Adam and Christina home, and me too. Then I had to quickly get ready to go back to school for Choir Rehearsal. It was actually really fun and I had been worrying that it wouldn't be, so I was pleasantly surprised! Then I came home and we got to go to a dance and I was really excited! I invited my friend Amy and we were having it with another stake...so that means more boys! :) Anyways, it was a little slow in the beginning, but then it got faster and it was a lot of fun! Amy said she

Pepper Jelly Stress

*Note: This is actually from the 16th, I didn't have enough time to post it last night! :)* Yes, pepper jelly. It's actually peppers made into jelly. And surprisingly it's good! My mom makes it and I think I shall make it my stress food. I've been really stressed lately and I've noticed I like to eat tons of food when I'm stressed. The problem is that I get out of school at 2:12 and I want lunch, because... school lunch isn't always very filling. So I want dinner as soon as I get home, but we don't eat until like 6. So I eat all this food that doesn't fill me up and I keep eating because I'm not full. Don't worry, I'm not going to become obese or anything. I still exercise...or have good intentions to exercise. Want to know what's causing me all this stress? (even if you don't I'm gonna tell you, so forget I asked.) School. No, not school work or anything but SGA. Student Government Assocation, and it's not even them. It&#

School vs Shaina's nerves

Ahh , school. I had to get up at 4:22 today after a week and a couple of days sleeping in until 11. The injustice of being sick. Fortunately I had a pretty good day and I was able to get through the day with only one major coughing attack. :( I had to take a benchmark in English and I finished and was just sitting there twiddling the thumbs when it hit me. I hate that! It's all quiet and then you have to sneeze or cough and it's a loud one. *sigh* Oh well, I made it to the hallway before the really loud ones came. I feel bad for the kids in the hallway...they probably didn't know what was going on. ;) So also at school, I got to get all of the homework assignments that I missed. I have to take a total of 3 tests. One in AP World, Math, and Spanish. I was prepared for math and AP world and then my Spanish teacher said she had one for me too. Ugh. I did 3 days of homework in math and still have one more to do. Good thing I have four days to make everything up. All of the

Owl City meets Ramen Noodles

Hello again! So today has been fun, I feel like I've gotten over the flu even more! Hah, take that! :) Anyways, I'm left with a runny nose and the slight cough. Hopefully I will be even more over it tomorrow! Today I had to do chores as usual and then I got a call. Someone needed me to babysit! I haven't babysat in a while, and I really needed the money, and then mom says I can't accept the money. *slams on mental brakes* WHAT? And then I realized it was a church event, so I really shouldn't accept it. *sigh* But the kids were adorable and I had a lot of fun, and got showed up by a 5 year old in air hockey. Anyways, I did get payed! They said they were going to pay me and thats that. Well, they didn't say that exactly, but hey. I won't argue with them! :) So I got home and was really hungry. All I had was a peanut butter and honey sandwich. Not really filling for dinner. So I got on facebook and started to Heather who gave me something new to obsess over! Ow

I <3 Vampires

I love how totally obessed people can get over tv shows or any other thing and no one will think its too weird! I mean, they could think what you are obessing over is weird, but not the obessing part! :) My cousin Heather showed me take180 while she was here and I fell in love with the minisodes of I <3> Anyways, right now the Holiday is on, just because it was the only thing on and its at the end. Its actually a pretty good movie except for a couple of scenes, but I really relate with Iris and I like how everything turns out. I'm just waiting for the parentals to come home and again nothing really good to eat in the house. I did find a huge bag of m&ms buried under the many pounds of chocolate chips that we have. So I did enjoy so m&ms and now I know where to look! ;) Well...I think thats about it. And I'm excited to be able to blog about what ever I want. Well, not everything, but most things! ~Shaina P.S. Check it out!

Flu Week

So this past week I've been sick with the flu. I have no idea if it was the swine flu or just the regular flu. Hopefully not swine. Anyways, I've been sick since Monday and its Friday. I hate germs. I have already missed two tests and I'm gonna have so much fun making up all the work I've missed. Whats the point in skipping if you can't enjoy it? *sigh* Well, hopefully I'll be better by Sunday or even Saturday. Sunday is stake conference and then the youth conference video thing, I really want to go and see everyone again. *crosses fingers* Anyways, it's been a relaxing week minus blowing the nose constanly and coughing. I think I have now seen every episode of Phineas and Ferb, Suite Life on Deck, and Suite Life of Zack and Cody. Vanessa was sick with me until today and she was watching Disney channel and playing on some disney channel fairy site. It actually looked cool for a fairy site. :) Unforunately there has been no good food in the house so I haven&#

I have a Blog!

I have a blog! I've been wanting one for a long time, I just could never think of a title! Hopefully this one will stick. So I'm going to figure out how to use this gismo! I've always wanted to have something of mine posted for everyone to see. I have an account on this writing site, but I'm afraid to post anything of mine because someone could steal it. I guess I just worry to much. Also, since I saw Julie and Julia I've been wanting a blog even more. Which it was an okay movie, it had some parts that made me cringe, since I was with some friends. (boys and girls) Well, off to figure this out! Wish me luck! ~Shaina
