Today I've done pretty much everything except finish my damn Chaucer essay. I'm just so so so so so sick of writing essay after essay and revising essay after essay. I just can't take it anymore. It's too much work. I know that in the long run it'll help for writing essays in college and time management stuff, but come ON....

How I joined the Lacrosse Team
Today when I was door-to-door walking, the temperature was in the low 40's so I wore a lacrosse jacket from my school. I've never played lacrosse, but during my sophomore year I was the athletic trainer for the Girls' Lacrosse Team at my school. As a thank you gift, the coach sent me this really soft and warm zip-up jacket. I wear it pretty often, and whenever I do people ask me if I play. I typically have time to correct them and fill them in, but not this time...
My mom and I had gone out to lunch, and as she was in the bathroom, the restaurant's manager walked up to me and exclaimed "You play lacrosse?! Oh my goodness so does my daughter!!!! She loves it, she spent a month this summer up at this intense LAX camp, it was epic. She's an underclassman, so we don't know if she can play Varsity just yet."
He had gotten so far along in his lacrosse discussion that I didn't have the heart to correct him and make him feel embarrassed, so I just played along with it, nodding my head and saying "yep" and "oh yeah, definitely" between sentences. Then, he asked me "What position do you play?" I was stumped. I only knew one position in my limited knowledge of girls' LAX, and it was the goalie. So I said that, and Mr. Manager was thoroughly impressed and wished me a good season.
So now I'm the goalie on the girl's lacrosse team. My life is now lacriss-crossed.

Today's been ok, I spent it all door-to-door walking for my dad. It was pretty fun this time around though! I really didn't mind. It was freezing cold outside though. I also tried an Apple Pie donut and it was AMAZING. I don't even like donuts and this was one of the best things I've ever eaten!

Goodnight
I give up on my homework. I still haven't done my stats, Canterbury Tales essay, nor nearly enough studying for my AP Bio test tomorrow. I'm screwed. At least I'm getting to bed earlier.
I can't focus on my homework so I'm just making motivational posters for Newspaper class and strategizing on how I can bring up my GPA through my grades in AP English and AP Bio. I'm really close to getting an A- in both of those classes. With the extra credit assignments in Bio, I can easily get up to an A- or even an A.

School today was somewhat better. Just being done with the issue of the newspaper took a bit of a load off my back. In class, the adviser had all the editors meet up in private to talk through all of the drama and issues that we went through. Of course, they aren't fully resolved or fixed, but we can only do our best to move forward and come up with new means of efficiency. It's just frustrating overall. I also wish that I had less homework. it's all just too much to handle.
Goodnight!
I managed to get a lot done in the past hour and a half, everything due for tomorrow, extra credit for AP Bio, and some test prep for AP Bio! I feel much better surviving the night. Now I just have to do it again tomorrow! I can do this. Goodnight!!!!!

Today was pretty uneventful for me. I still have a ridiculous amount of homework, but on the bright side, tomorrow is a late start day so even if I get to bed as late as I have been, I'll still get an extra hour of sleep. I'm just so nervous about finishing up this week and then what next week holds for me. The work I've had for English is ridiculous, the homework from all my other classes just keeps growing and growing, and between all the homework I have no time to study for tests. On top of all that, the whole problem with the newspaper has been eating away at me. I just need and want a vacation. I want to take a nap, but I worry that if I do, I'll crash out for the night and I won't get a single bit of homework done.

Today was awful. I don't have the time nor energy to go into it all, but let's just say that there were lots of tears on my part and lots of work that needs done in general.
