Goodnight!

I'm almost done with my lab report, thank goodness! I still have to write a paper tomorrow and then finish all my math that I STILL haven't done since last Monday as well as reading more of Dracula. I think I'll make it just fine, though. My mom really wants me to work on another scholarship tomorrow as well, so I'll just have to see how far I get. I'm pretty nervous about my .grades since the quarter ends at the end of the week
I got some work done on my Advocacy project, so yay for that!

3/14/15

Today was fairly uneventful! I mean I was woken up after noon, so it's not like I could've done all that much. I did get some work done on my AP Bio lab report and in reading Dracula. I went to mass with my sister tonight, then afterwards we went to Panera for dinner. She then went to Kent State University to meet her friend at the Spanish Film Festival. I started going home, but I wound up taking a detour at a park to scout out a location for a video production video. It was a pretty lovely spot, but my shoes got soaked through thanks to all the melted snow/rain from yesterday. There are tons of flooded fields in the area around me thanks to all the snow, and I always enjoy seeing that and knowing that Spring is coming! After that, I went towards home, bought gas and got a Chai latte at Starbucks. I finally deposited all the checks from my birthday, so now I'm not nearly as poor as I was earlier today! Now, I'm just relaxing/working on homework.

Yesterday

Yesterday was the perfect way to end this awful week! Despite having to wake up at 5:15 in the morning and having to stand in the cold rain for two hours, it was practically perfect in every way!

The summit on human trafficking was incredibly interesting. I did have to sit through a mass and through stations of the cross, but everything else was really educational, informative, and powerful. There were about 20 different presentations that we were all able to go to, but each of us was assigned a random one to attend. My first presentation was put on by a group that works to find missing, homeless, or at-risk teens and get them off the streets, as they are incredibly susceptible to being trafficked. My second session was about Fair Trade, and it was also pretty informative. Two girls in the group that came with me got to listen to Michelle Knight, one of the three women kidnapped and held captive by Ariel Castro for ten years, tell her story and speak of her experiences. After the keynote address, we went back to school (but not without stopping to get a snack!).

After getting back, I went down to the field as there was to be a lacrosse scrimmage. The weather was awful, but the team won and I'm really getting along well with my other trainer!

After that, I went to hang out with Andy. We ate mac and cheese, cuddled, and I got him hooked on The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. So overall, it was a perfect day!

Happy Pi Day y'all!
