Please come to us snow!

Today I sent an e-mail with the link to my Africa blog to a bunch of people. I hate doing stuff like that...it just seems so narcisistic and like I epxect everyone to want to read it or something. I mean, I love it when people do obviously but I hate promoting myself in that way for some reason...well, I know the reason.

I hope we get snow today! The forecast calls for it, but down south in the city where our house is rarely ever gets snow. :( I think this calls for a unisonal "Poo-hoo!"

What a crazy weekend I have ahead of me. Today I got to French class and take a test. After that I go babysitting. Then I come home and work nonstop on my chemistry test. Tomorrow morning I go babysitting again until mid-afternoon. I come home and, guess what? Work nonstop on my chemistry test. Then we are having friends over for dinner. I'll probably sleep over with a friend and in the morning I have dance at 9:30. At 1 I have a CNA training thing and then after that I go straight to some friends' house for another sleepover. I get up in the morning, go to church (and hear my dad preach!) then come home and, yet again, work nonstop on my chemistry test. By the point depending on how much I have done I might go to Perspectives (my missions class). If not, I'll stay home and work on the test. Which is due Monday morning.

Only a few more weeks of this school madness! I think the fact that I'm done with high school in December is making me a wee bit apathetic.

I really want to spend money and buy the Celtic Thunder Christmas album! But no. Well maybe. We'll see...

I raked a big pile of leaves yesterday. I might go jump in them before it snows...

I hate trying to think of titles

Call me an eavesdropper, but I love listening to other peoples' conversations. Right now I am at Panera bread and the women at the table next to mine (a shaded table I am coveting at the moment) are having quite an interesting convo...I'm not sure what about, but there is a cute little baby with them. Aww...

So much to do after I write this up. I can't leave this restaurant until I have...at least four pages of my paper done. That is my plan. I should be able to get that done in less than two hours hopefully. They might kick me out though so I sould probably start. But the sun is blinding me so I can't even like, see the screen.

oh yes, the baby started to cry! the ladies are leaving. I'm going to take their table...

This week we have to buy the tickets for Africa and I need to get my visa stuff filled out. What's funny is the visa instructions are in French! But alas I can't understand them perfectly.

A lot of my friends have said they want to start blogging. I think it is a great idea. I love blogs. I love writing them, I love reading them. If every person had a blog and posted things that are on their hearts...the whole world would be on the internet. I think something I tend to do is put my life on the internet but not invest enough time showing my true self in real life. Something I should probably be working on fixing...but it's really hard.

What keeps you from blogging? It's a personal preference I guess, but I am curious.

Awww, shade. Yes. Now my coffee is cold. I wonder what the Panera people think about someone sitting here for two hours continuously filling up on cofffee? ;)
