college in highschool

I meant to post before i left for Bob Jones University. Let me explain....no, no time, let me sum up: My school gave us juniors and seniors the opportunity to go visit a college to see what college life was like. But the only college our school deemed worthy was Bob Jones University. All i'll say about this place is that there is a strict dress code and bedtime (12:00). It is a pretty good Christian college, just some funny rules that make me laugh. So there was about 12-13 of us that went there, and we had a good time just hangin' out eating alot of little squeezers' pizza (that's: little ceasers') and going to a few classes. I actually went to 3 classes on thursday, and 5 on friday. I still have no idea what i want to go to college for, much less a carreer, so i was looking for some communications classes. But i had to settle for cinema classes because Bob Jones didn't have that many communications classes. But cinema isn't all that bad, and it was extra good because i didn't have to take notes or anything. I meant to post before we left but this job is from right after school till about 6:15 which is promptly followed by homework. But today they ran out of parts so i was only at work for about 12 minutes. That goes under the "awkward situations" list.

The other day i was messing with my phone and accidentaly (really) sent this picture to my inbox. It is from Bob Jones. I think it would be better if i just explain it. on the left hand side is an ATMachine and there is just this big area behind it. Now, at Bob Jones, couples are not allowed to be "alone' on campus. So if you look real closely at the upper right hand side you can see a little mirror so no one can hide behind the machine to be "alone" with their significant other. I know that's the dumbest thing you've ever heard but it made me laugh at the time, and it cost me about $1.00 i think to send the picture so i might as well use it. Enjoy and I'll be right back after these messages! =)

Big Times

So, after school on Monday i check my voicemail and my Dad has left a message saying a job opening has appeared at his shop. I'm off school the next day for election day and instead of doing what what needs to be done (relax and deeply meditate on school work with my eyes closed in bed) I hussle off to work at 8:00 pm. Ok yea, i guess i actually would rather make some $mula$ instead of sleeping. Haha. I actually don't mind the work so much, it's king of gratifying in a wierd way to make some small sub-assembly part with nothing but your bare hands, power tools, and a few nylock nuts =) And the people there are rather fun to work with. And i went that first full day without any injury. I couldn't go to work on Wednesday because...i'll tell you in a second why. But today i cut myself with scissors trying to cut open a box. Nothing major at all, but i had to write in the log that i took some gauze and a band-aid out of the first aid cabinet, so that counts as my first injury!!

Oh yeah! I couldn't go to work on Wednesday because a) I had to finish a yearbook deadline and b) i had to go to youth group early to practice with the worship band. I played bass, which is not unlike playing guitar, Which is good because i haven't played bass much before. But over all i think it went well, but only about 10-12 people (out of about 30) were at youth group that night. But that was good too because i didn't want o mess up in front of a buch of people.

Thanks for reading this peoples. i gotta get to bed because i have chemistry test and Wuthering Heights quiz tomorrow. Thank goodness for sparknotes to translate the book after i read it.

I'M DONE!

Done with what you may ask?

Soccer has finished last Monday (we lost in the quarter finals), and..... I completed my 6 hours of political volonteering for Government & Economics class! So, now you'd think I'd have a bunch of time on my hands right? no. I stayed after school till 9:45 today. (No I did not violate the dress code or kill anyone) I was finishing/working on pages for yearbook till about five o' clock, then helped the seniors babysit 6-11 year olds for a fund raiser. (ya, I don't know if fund-raiser is 1 or 2 words). That wasn't so bad. Only; why do little kids get so hyper only when you put the movie on? Anywho, tomorrow is our school's Fall Festival, basically just a big fundraiser (fund raiser) foor the school in swhich every class has one or two booths. I'll update ya'll (four people i think) on that later. Peace out for now ;D
