Homecoming Dress Shopping...Fun?

Homecoming dress shopping, some fun stuff. Well, it is time consuming, annoying, but, sometimes fun. Yesterday, my grandmother took me to Jcpenny and I picked out a silver dress. But, it washed me out so we decided to go back today to go get a new one. I was originally going to get this beautiful royal blue one but, I instead got this beautiful strapless dress with acourse a shrug so my grandfather won't throw a fit and then to stay modest. Now, if you are wondering how much dress I tried on, I tried on 11 dresses total from yesterdays and today's count. Very tiring.

this is the dress I got today with its shrug.

Now homecoming isn't until Oct.16,2010.

Great Expectations

If you ever had read Great Expectations by Charles Dickens, you would know that Pip had some great expectations for himself, like for example being a wealthy man and wouldn't have to work as a blacksmith like his uncle.
Now, I have great expectations for myself and so does my teachers and my grandparents. Out of my teachers I think my AP World History teacher has a great expectation for all of us to pass the AP exam with a 3, 4, or 5. Then there is my English Honors 10 teacher who has a great expectation that we all can pass the English 10 HSA. Now finally, I really think my Allied Health Instructor has great expectations for me to do well in the class by getting good grades on tests, classwork, homework, and journals. I have been doing excellent on my journals for the class which I am so happy about that. Now, since she saw I did very well on my journals, then she will expect me to do super in the class and pass my certification test at the end of the year and the certification tests shows whether I can come back next year to continue with taking Allied Health, if I pass then next year I would be doing my clinical study.
Now I am proving my grandparents wrong and that is doing well in AP World History because they believe I am not ready to take a college course but, as to right now I am doing very well which is making me happy. I kind of have a goal for myself this quarter and that is get straight A's.
So, if I get good grades all this year, then this July, I can go to EFY and then in August, get my learners permit and I think I will be doing both because I usually do well in school.
Now, you maybe wondering on why on earth am I taking a health class. Well I plan on going into a health profession. I want to be a RN and work in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in the second level. And why is that I want to work in the NICU? Well, I love babies and they can't tell us what is wrong and they need help, lastly, they are so precious, love able, and cute. Who, doesn't love babies? I also wouldn't mind working in the maternity ward or in cardiovascular ward.
Why do I choose to be a nurse instead of a doctor. Nurses do so more than a doctor. Doctor usually on do surgeries etc. While a nurse visits the patients and take care of them.
So, I really should go now. Off to studying world and to do some homework. Love, Kayla :)

Just call me Eva:)

Okay so I am trying to get at least one blog in a day. Plus, right now I am in relaxing mode since I will be doing homework around 3:30 pm. So school was great and I am happy to say I actually like Spanish this year! My Spanish three teacher is nice and you can actually understand what she is saying. In the past four years ( 7th grade- Spanish IA, 8th grade- Spanish IB, 9th grade- Spanish II, 10th grade- Spanish III) I would be super duper lost and then I didn't like my teachers. Now, whenever I don't like a teacher, it would mean I don't like that subject. So as to right now, I am liking the subject. Oh, and my Spanish name this year is Eva.
Now, I had English 10 Honors to day and I actually had to be patient since the stupid computers in the SPECIES lab run as slow as a molasses. I have a feeling the computers are from the prehistoric era. But, we are doing a World Culture project which is you need two family photos, a family store handed down from each generation, and five facts on a country that our ancestors came from. Originally I chose Germany but, when I interviewed my grandfather, he started talking about Switzerland so it would be weird talking about Germany and then Switzerland. So I changed my country to Switzerland. By the way, I do have family ancestors that are from Germany, lets just say I have so many ethnics ( I think that's the word) made up of me.  One fact about Switzerland is that they find it inappropriate to chew gum and attend to personal hygiene in public... so sorry to the gum chewers out there and to all of us girls that like to primp :( Also, they avoid speaking without their hands, and if you really know me you can see I wouldn't make it there because I love speaking with my hands. But, overall it is a beautiful country.
Oh, and I was in a land of hyperness today. I don't know why but, I was and I didn't eat anything sugary for breakfast either :/
So now, I am off to homework land where I need to read and take notes for Allied Health, finish writing procedures for Chemistry Honors, write a thesis statement for AP World History, Geometry, and I may do Spanish III homework but, that isn't due until Friday. Then I hopefully will take a nap and go to Young Women's tonight where we have new leaders, I will miss the old leaders but, I think it will be fun to have some change:)

Three weeks of School and Seminary...

So on August 30, 2010 marked the 2010-2011 school year. Which makes me a Sophomore. So far I am getting awesome grades:)
Now I have to make sure I get to bed at 9:30 pm on every school night since I have to wake up at 4:50 am for seminary which is Monday- Friday, unless there is a school delay, cancellation of school, or if we are scheduled off for school.
In seminary this year we are reading Doctrine and Convents and Joseph Smith History.
Now, besides seminary, there is school.
Hmmm... where to start about school? Okay, so I am taking such a heavy load this year. On an A day I have Geometry- 1st period, AP World History, 2nd period, A lunch and then head over to Sollers for Allied Health which is two periods long and then at the end of the day, I have Chemistry Honors. Now on a B day I have Spanish III- period 1, English 10 Honors- period 2, A lunch and then go over to Sollers and follow that schedule like the day before.
I have to say Geometry is pretty confusing, I like math and all but, it is shapes! I have trouble with those concepts. AP World History is a lot of studying and writing. Spanish III is an okay class and English 10 Honors isn't that bad. Allied Health is an amazing class but, you have to remember so much since you are dealing with a humans life so once again lots of studying and memorization. Chemistry Honors is my favorite class since my teacher is awesome and we get to do lots of experiments :) Which I absolutely love :))
I have made some amazing friends too in my classes which is great. I may have some drama right now but, I have to make it work for me. Since I need to put school and myself first.
So far we already have had three days off in the three weeks of school.
I sometimes long for a longer summer but I do need school in my life, to keep me occupied.
But, I think this would be a great and memorable school year... well actually I hope it is.
