Update
If you already saw, I added new links to my blog. For a short period of time, I had the link to the Jacky Faber website. I later changed it to my friend's YouTube Channel, so it wouldn't lead to any legal issues with L. A. Meyer. She and her co-stars want more views, and this was the first thing that came to my mind. I already posted the link on Twitter and she has a Facebook page for it. Check it out...now!
Sophomore Year
I'm a sophomore now. And I have been for nine weeks, but I'm just getting to it now. And my sophomore year has been kinda hectic. Let's start from the beginning.
A week or two before school started, I got my schedule in the mail. And I noticed two problems. Both of them involve gym/fitness. (They're the same thing, just have different names.) The first problem is that I had two gym classes every day. So that meant Group Exercise and Fitness in the morning and Dance Technique in the afternoon. Group Exercise and Fitness is a gym class where yoga, pilates and kick-boxing is rotated every day. Dance Technique is studying and performing jazz, hip-hop and swing routines. Doing both of these classes every day left me fatigued when I got home. On the bright side, both of these classes were only nine weeks long, and from the exercise, my abs are firmer. Well, slightly.
The second problem came with two health/fitness classes every day. Which means that I'll have to run a mile twice. In 20-40 degree weather in the morning and 30-55 degree weather in the afternoon. No one wants to run a mile when its 20 degrees outside, and while wearing shorts and a tee shirt. I'm gonna have to buy a hoodie and yoga pants for the fitness classes.On the bright side, one of the health classes is Driver's Ed, so that will get me halfway to my learner's permit in April.
My next problem came Homecoming, and finding a dress. I already bought the dress and it was gorgeous. Finding a date was also easy, considering one of my guy friends loves me, and now we're together. We've only been together for about two weeks, and we're taking it slow. He almost forgot to buy his ticket, which screwed both of us up for a few days. The dance was loud, fun, and of course involved trying to avoid the crowd's "dancing" (really just sex with clothes).
Halloween was spent trick-or-treating with my friends, and this really creepy guy who turns out to be my best friend's cousin or something. I went as a banshee and with all the grease makeup and accessories I put on, i was nearly unrecognizable. Or so says my mom.
I am in Women's Chorus again, and this year, I WILL audition for the Ensemble. And next year Concert Choir. Maybe. The Choral Director said I was good last year, but I had to be louder. I myself, have to work on belt and vibrato.
I joined French Club, and sometime this year, we're going to see Cirque du Soleil. Sadly, we don't have enough money for Les Miserables. Because its at least $100 per person. So it would be about $3,500 for the whole French Club. We definitely do not have money to go to France this year.
I also have French II and US History I right now. Right now, we're learning how to say different chores in French and James Madison's presidency in History.
I also read "The Wake of the Lorelei Lee" by L. A. Meyer. It's the eighth book in the Bloody Jack Adventures, my favorite book series. WotLL was a fantastic book, but also really sad. My boyfriend is reading the series, too. Right now, he's on the second book in the series.
My cat now rules the house, but the dog isn't as afraid of her as she used to be. And the dog is allergic to grain now. So that means buying her all new dog food.
I also feel like I should make a post for where I want to travel, but I'll do that later.

Short Sentences That Mean Everything
There's a lot of short sentences in life that mean a lot. Maybe even a short sentence could save your life. Like if you're about to jump off a bridge and your girlfriend called just to say she loves you. That might save your life. Unless its your ex-girlfriend who just slept with your brother, then both of you you may have to rethink your lives. And relationships. But I digress.
Anyway, there are a lot of short sentences that can mean a lot. Some are life-changing, others are random things that pop into your head at any given moment. For example: "I love you" can mean everything. "Marry me" is more. While "I slept with your sister" can cause a huge problem. "I'm breaking up with you" can end it. "We're getting a divorce" legally ends it.
All of these sentences have less than ten words in them. But they can change your life. FOREVER.
I myself have never been told any of those above, nor have I said them to anyone. I have said short sentences that led to strange plans, though. Some examples:
"Let's start a band!" - This phrase led to a recording of my friend and I singing. The same friend is learning guitar right now.
"Let's go on a road trip!" - This ended up with the idea that my friends and I save up our money, rent an RV and go cross country the summer we graduate.
"Let's start a country!" - Still in planning stage. Yes, we, two high school students, are serious. Just have to find money.
Etcetera, etcetera.
Another kind of short sentence means nothing, but I'll write them down anyway.
"My left eye burns."
"Dude, whatever."
"So...you like cloth?" Teen Girl Squad reference.
"Meh."
"Anyway..."
Etcetera, etcetera.
On another note, I feel like writing a new story. No, its not a fanfic, it's historical fiction.
