Whats Up?

Hey anyone who might happen to read this :) I know I have like one follower, so I'm probably just writing this for myself, so I would really appreciate it if someone would read my blog!

Anyway, Driver's Ed. classes have been going really well and when I go out driving with my parents I think I'm doing pretty good, or at least getting better! I haven't crashed into anything yet if that's a good sign! I get to do my first scheduled drive with an instructor this friday, but I'm kind of nervous...haha I just hope that I won't do anything stupid.

Urg, my school has finals this week and I'm kind of worried. I think I'm ready and I've been studying a lot, but there's still that fear in the back of my mind that I'll forget everything once I see the test :( I guess it's just nerves...Well, our first final is math on tuesday, so wish me luck!

My sister Jamie is home for a visit (yay!!) but...she's leaving tomorrow for Michigan again. She went to the doctors while she was here, but she's leaving too soon to really have it make a difference or get anything done to make her better. All because she misses her boyfriend! :( From what I hear, he still isn't working, and Jamie said that she's not happy in Michigan. But of course, she's gonna go back because she's "in love." I know that she feels like she really is, and it's not that I don't like that she's found someone to love, but I can't be happy for her because of her situation over there. And she gets so upset when we ask her to stay home or when we try to talk to her about her boyfriend that we just don't know what to do anymore...She and Jennifer fought quite a bit while she was here, and of course it was all because of Chris (her boyfriend). I don't think that even if Jamie ever does come home for good that the twins will ever be as close as they used to.

Btw, if anyone is looking to read a really good book, I just finished one called Lock and Key by Sarah Dessen. It's a little strange, but it's really good :) I'm kind of a book worm, always looking for good books, so if anyone knows of a good one, you should recommend it!

Well, gotta get back to my studying so that's it for today :) And I hope that somebody will read this!

I GOT MY PERMIT!!!

AHHH!!! I got my permit today!!! :) I've been really looking forward to this! I'm going to start my Driver's Ed. classes next week on monday, and I'm really excited to start driving, but I'm kind of nervous too...All of my friends have been making fun of me because I'm only 5'2"! They keep on saying that I'll never be able to see over the wheel :( It's kind of depressing since I haven't grown for awhile XD But I don't really mind, I like being short! Anyway, after school, my mom took my brother and I to the liscensing department place for him to take the test to get his permit (since he's 17 and hasn't taken Driver's Ed.) and for me to get my permit for the classes. It's kind of funny cuz when we got to the place, I saw someone I know from school! I know it's not that uncommon or anything, but it was kind of nice because there was a long waiting time so he and I talked for awhile. He was there to take his test so he was kind of nervous. I think that talking helped a little. After that we were finally called up to the counter (finally!! that place is famous for its long waits) and my brother was sent off to take his test and I had to get my picture taken for my permit. Of course, as always, the picture on the permit turned out horrible even though my mom said it was fine...Isn't that how it always happens though? On pictures that you really want to look nice in, it turns out horrible, and random, around the house pictures always turn out the best. It's just plain wierd...haha. Anyway I was really happy to get my permit! :) Can't wait for classes to start!!

I'm really excited for this weekend too! My dad's side of the family is taking our annual cabin trip up to somewhere around Packwood. It always turns out to be pretty cramped because our family is so big, but it's probably one of the only times that almost the whole family gets together, so we all enjoy it! :)

Well, I know it's a little late, but since I haven't written in awhile, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!! :)
