For those of you out there who actually read this stuff and probably have way too much time on you hands, I apreciate the "E Props" you gave me, but I am not an avid poster as you may have guessed.  Yes a ton od things have gone on since my last post and no I will not procede to list them all for the world to ponder and speculate.  However seeing as there seem to be a few people who just can't leave well enough alone, I will grant them peace of mind with a few highlights from the past couple of years. 

I did pass Chemistry. It was Hell but I did it.  I moved on to happier times in AP Biology where I was able to relax knowing that no matter what I did or did not do in that class, I already knew many of the answers simply from growing up in a Biology lab with my Mom.  Concept Physics with the nutty professer also helped reaquaint me with the ease of grades with little to no work.  I got my rear end handed to me by the same math teacher I have had three times before, but I have learned to take the good with the bad. After all, I still had my highest GPA ever thanks to a 5.0 in AP Bio, and a 4.0 in 4 other classes.  Senior year was good to me.

The other highlights would have to be getting food off campus with senior privilages, taking a vacation to Europe, and gettin into a college of my choice.

I supose most people would want to know more about my little Euro trip at this point so I'll tell you a little about Ireland.  There really is'nt much to do in Ireland other than farm livestock and go the the pubs. I have to say the pub atmosphere is far more stimulating and smells like a rose garden compared to a sheep farm.  How did I end up at a pub you say? What did I do you ask? Well, take three lively, Irish, college girls, add a dry martini and a pint of Guinness on tap, apparently it sucks from a can, throw in a bit of live rock music and you have the slightest idea of how the evening went.  Unfortunately I take after my mostly-German mother, so I have yet to know what a buzz feels like but needless to say it was a very entertaining night, as Irish girls can drink!  By the way, for all those guys out there who just have to know, yes these girls were hot. Tall, skinny, two red heads and a blond.  I'll leave it at that.

I also found out that I pay much better attention to someone with an Irish accent than an American one.  Perhaps I should transfer to an Irish college. Maybe then I'll get to see Kathy, Clare, Sally again.

I am really starting to get anoyed with those driving instructers!  So far I have been failed twice due to bad luck and a bad tempered guy who must hate his job or life, take your pick.  Any way this time it was all about my signal timing, what ever that means.  I was probably only signaling 80 feet before I made a turn instead of the "proper" 100 feet.  Point being I signaled every turn but didn't signal long enough for this guy's liking.  Oh well, I supose this means I will have to wait another week to get my license to kill, oops! I mean drive:)  If all goes well it should hurt like hell.  I heard that somewhere.  Not really sure what it means but I think it's apropriate right now.  Now all I have to do is try to pretend this isn't driving me insane and just deal with it.   

On a lighter note, I have been understanding Chem. a little better these days.  Who knows, I may just pass that class after all.  Hopefully I can now divert some of my focus back on to my other subject as well, avoiding any unexpected C's this quarter.  I can feel my mind slowly slipping away from lack of anything resembling a life.  I am so sick of studying.  To all those A+ students out there, congradulations, you both dazzle and sicken me at the same time.  To all those B students out there who actually have a life, you have my utmost admiration and praise!

Well, now that I finally figured out how to post something I might as well say something important or profound. 

Life is far too important to be taken seriousely.
