Bad Weather

I'm late on this blog...it's now Jan 10, but I'll talk of the things from Jan 9 haha

So it turns out the storm wasn't even that bad. I didn't hear anything and slept through the night just fine. I woke up and it was raining. I was gonna run to the bus stop but it was raining relatively hard, so my mom decided to take me and my brothers to school on the bus. It was just rain, it didn't hail or anything as some people had said. People even put covers on top of their cars to protects them in case. I remember the first time (out of two times) that it hailed last year there were a lot of broken windows. While it hailed all that we would hear were the car alarms going off and the hail hitting the windows of the house.That time was crazy, they even canceled school for a few days I think. During that time we only had two broken windows at our place, not bad considering some people had a lot of water come into their homes, messing up a lot of the things inside. Nothing had happened to our car either, and it was even outside with nothing to cover it!

Well that was early morning. When I got to school it was noticeable that there were some people absent. However, by the end of first period everything seemed to be back to normal, like everyone was there. A lot of people were late though. We kept doing reviews for final exams next week. I'm glad it's and early dismissal week also. The day went well :) But something even better happened today...

I got accepted into Philadelphia University! I checked online and say that my status now said "Accepted"....I felt so good reading that! Now I just need the official letter to come in the mail. So far I've been accepted to UTPA here near me, University of Houston, Texas State University at San Marcos and of course PhilaU. The latter is the only one I applied to out of state...hmm we'll see what happens. I guess there is a chance of attending if I get good scholarships. If not I'll just stay here...

Here are some pictures:

Storm

Well today went pretty well at school, average day. It did wake up kind of windy and rainy, dark gray day. I actually like days like these...I don't know why. Maybe cause I like to take pictures in this type of setting. I prefer these days over sunny days, though it's a close race.

We kept doing study guides for most of the day. We had another substitute for half of the day in some classes, it went pretty good, thought it got kind of boring. I finally sent the paper to fix my transcript for next semester, I hope they make the changes I want. During Clinical Rotation class we laughed as usual in our little group of friends. Pharmacy was about the same, but with other friends since not all have both classes. These two classes were the ones we had a substitute for since our teacher had a family emergency. I hope everything is ok with her.

We're supposed to have some kind of storm today with tornadoes and hail. It's very windy right now, I don't have much time here on the computer since I have to shut it down to avoid any damage to it cause of the storm, so I'll post tomorrow about that day. I hope it goes well, I have a few tests!

Here are some pics:

And again XD

Back to School

Well today was the first day of school after out winter break. It had been a nice relaxing break but it felt kind of short. In the past year we would usually get 3 weeks off instead of 2, that changed obviously.
I couldn't sleep last night cause I had changed my sleeping habits during the break haha. I would stay up very late with my brothers sometimes...we would just watch movies and listen to music. By the time I finally got some sleep it was already very late, I ended up getting a total of about two and a half hours of sleep.

In the morning I surprisingly didn't feel too tired. It was kind of cold but everything was ok when I got to school since it was warm inside. It felt good coming back. I had substituted for half of my classes, where we did easy simple work. Me and my friends just played random games after we were done, since we had more than enough time on our hands lol. I did however feel sleepy by the end of the day. After school the south side was out of power for some reason. The hallways looked like we were walking in an underground tunnel. I might make a few changes to my schedule next semester, we'll see how it goes. This is will be the last semester (which starts in two weeks and ends in May) of my high school years. I can't wait to graduate...finally! This year will be full of many changes. I hope everything goes well. It's exciting but weird at the same time, sometimes I feel like yesterday I was a freshman...but now is the second half of senior year. Times goes by fast... Now that we are in the last two weeks all we are doing is final exam reviews. I'll get my exemption letter later this week, I hope I can exempt as many classes as I can.  I have perfect grades averages in Anatomy and Economics, so I'm happy about that, more than likely I'll just exempt those classes. I hope they didn't mess up on my exemption letter like they did in ninth grade and I ended up not being able to exempt anything. Haha everything happens to me. We'll see...

I have more than enough credits already to graduate, but I need to find out what kind of graduation cords (little award cords given at the ceremony) I will be eligible for. I hope I am for at least one or two. I plan on talking to my counselor about this later throughout the week. Since I'll be there I will talk to her about my schedule also.

The pharmacy PTCB is also coming in the following months, so I need to study for that as well. So many things these next few months!

Well I need to go and check on some school stuff so I got to got...here are a few pictures:

Haha me back in later November
