Secret Handshakes..

I haven't been on here in a while.. so I'll try to catch up a little.

I saw Paranormal Activity with Kirstie, probably one of the scariest movies I've ever seen, I haven't been that scared since Sam, Lauren and I saw Stay Alive like 4 years ago. It's really creepy too because I hear stuff around my house like that all the time and now I'm afraid of what happens at night when I'm asleep.

School has been pretty normal, same old routine every other day. Latin and Chem have been fun though.. just the normal stuff we do. New marking period since Wednesday, I should check my grades.. give me just a sec..
Latin - 99%
Aerobic Conditioning - 92%
Public Speaking - 94%
Chemistry 2 - 98%

I usually always do good in school. I think I have the highest grade in my chem class. I hate the classes that do participation grades because I never participate, I'm way to shy/quiet.

Homecoming was great and two weekends before that was a family get-together which turned out to be a lot of fun. We were at my uncle's house along the river and had a bonfire and a cookout out back. Always have a ton of fun over there.. my cousin and I returned to our roots and had a mission like when we were younger. It was great.

I've been accepted to 3 of the 4 colleges I've applied to, and I have no doubt I won't get in to the one I really want to. I've been accepted to York College of Pennsylvania, Drexel and Millersville University. I really want to get in to University of the Sciences in Philadelphia. That's like my dream school. They have this awesome forensics program that I want to do and major in Chemistry which would be perfect for what I want to do when I get older. Do the whole CSI thing in a lab. That's been my dream since that series came out. I would love to be able to do something like that.

So last weekend, on Halloween I took a road trip all the way to Norfolk, VA just to see The Academy Is... it was a blast. I loved being able to see them on a Halloween show. They had some amazing bands with them, You Me At Six, The Secret Handshake and Mayday Parade. I loved them but hated Set Your Goals.. they are on my list. Everyone else was wonderful and I made a ton of new friends since I was there alone. Now I get to see them in two days in Allentown, so much closer to me, haha. Now I'm just waiting for Tuesday to come. :]

Then on the way home, I found out that my friend got engaged, which is amazing for her. I'm so happy for her and her boyfriend, and then the next day, Sunday, she asked me to be her maid of honor and I immediately accepted. I would do anything for her, I'm so glad she asked me. Her and her boyfriend moved into their new apartment together this past week and so they are living together with one roommate. I'm really proud of them.

This weekend I got to go to a wedding for my brother's friend Ryan. It was fun at the reception, even though I couldn't eat dinner since it was all meat. I found out though, that at the receptions, you tap your glass to make the bride and groom kiss.. I was kinda appalled.. Honestly, do these people get off on making people kiss? I told my mom that whoever does it at my wedding will get a fork thrown at them, haha. I think it's ridiculous.

So I think I've written a decent amount of my life so far. I'm still not tired or ready for school tomorrow but whatever.. I'll fall asleep when I get tired. Anyway, I've gotten myself mostly over what happened last month, I'm turning a new leaf and letting October go away and November be a good month for me. I did a little bit of mental cleaning and I feel much better but I still have the want to just laid down and be bored for no reason. I think it's just my depression of the winter coming back so it's okay. I can handle it alone since I'm hoping I've found someone new, :] haha. Drew's trying to make me happy and vice versa... and before there's any misunderstandings, Drew is like my older brother, so don't get any ideas. Someone else, haha. I, well I know he knows that I exist, but I doubt he knows how I feel so yeah. We'll just see where this goes.

Alright, Goodnight to the non-existant people who read my blog :],
