So my day started off pretty bad. I was really late to school, not that thats anything new but I kinda just wanna be on time for once. And then I came home and my counselor decides to call me 3/4 of the way into my senior year and tell me I need one more science credit...or I don't graduate. So I'm crying because I'm pissed and I knew my dad wasn't gonna be very happy about this. I just think that maybe they should have told me about this at the beginning of the year...So now I have to take a correspondence course or whatever. Don't get me wrong, I'm gonna do whatever I have to do to get the credit because ya know...I would like to graduate. So that just really made my day bad.
Then Meghan and I ate some nasty chinese...ew, gross.
Then we come home.
Sidebar: For about two weeks now, I have been frantically checking the mail for something from Americorps so I can see what campus I'm going to, that's if I get in. But I mean, I knew I would. It really isn't hard to get in. But everyday, I keep checking and checking really hoping that I'm going to Sacramento, California. I really didn't want to go to DC. My dad kinda scared me with telling me that it has the highest murder rate in the country....yeah, I wouldn't be too excited for that. Seeing all the historical things there would be awesome...for a vacation, not to live there. And then there's Charleston, South Carolina. I've never even heard that place...therefore, I don't want to go there. It seems boring. So the last place would be Sacramento...now that sounds exciting. I would be far far away doing stuff I love doing all while helping people. I mean, I'm for it. And they randomly select where you go, I have no choice.
So we come home, and on the way in my neighborhood, I see the mailman drive out. So I'm just hoping that I got my letter in the mail and guess what? It came today. And guess where I have been sent? Sacramento, California. So for 10 months, starting September 22, 2005, I will be in Sacramento, California.
