Holy crap. What happened to this update format thingy?! Just give me my raw formatting layout and leave me alone. ;.;
Anyways. Um. It's been forever. So let's see... I graduated high school. >_>; The last day was actually more depressing than exciting, because I realized that I left a lot of awesome friends and teachers. Ryan, Andrew, Calvin, Emily... And Madame, who has become a friend as well as a teacher. It was hard saying goodbye to her, even though I'll visit her every day that I can. It was the first time I used "tu" with her. I'm really going to miss being in her class. Seeing as she's the only French teacher at the school, I've been with her for three years (I skipped second year) and the class as a whole has formed a bond. By far, she's the best teacher I've ever had.
Well anyway, break has been nice. I finally got around to registering for classes at ICC, and it was a little stressful since I'd picked out specific classes with my mom, but then some ended up being full, so we needed to switch things around. I'm upset that the only first-year Spanish class was full, which means that I'll have to wait until the summer before I start learning Spanish in a classroom environment. I'm really hoping that the fourth-year French class doesn't fill up before I can go take the rest of the placement tests, because if it's full, I'll have a two-hour break between two classes because I scheduled them around French, and that would be extremely boring. Luckily all three (yes, three :P) classes are at the East Peoria campus, so I don't have to drive around everywhere. I'm taking my psychology class at the high school here because it's offered there, and it's only on Tuesdays, which is awesome. Unfortunately it's Intro to Psychology, which I've pretty much already learned from high school, but it's a requirement for the foreign language major. At least it won't be hard. I'm also taking a correspondence English class by mail, so I don't have to go anywhere for that. =D So far it doesn't look like my first semester in college will be too much trouble.
Phil, Lori and the kids came up for Christmas and it was nice. I like seeing them, especially Clayton 'cause he's cool and I'm his favorite uncle (out of two, but shh). =D Phil and Lori got me an AWESOME Spanish dictionary: it has Spanish-English and English-Spanish, and then a whole section about grammar and such that could probably teach me the whole language if I studied all of it. Now I just need a German dictionary like it.
I finally beat Guitar Hero on expert in career mode. I only have one song left to pass in the whole game: Jordan. Uggghhhh. The farthest I've done is 47%, and that's not even halfway through the solos. And I think my whammy bar broke... I let Phil play and he used it once, though I didn't really see how hard he pulled it, so he might have broken it. And the guitar took a few seconds to realize I was using star power. I reeeaaally hope it isn't broken, 'cause I can't afford another guitar. ;.; Maybe it'll be like my computer and magically fix itself after being turned off.
In one day, 21 hours and approximately twenty minutes, it'll be the two-month with my girlfriend who's better than yours. She makes me so happy. =D
Derek and possibly Alan are camping at Gamestop on Saturday so Derek can get a Wii. He's crazy.
I need to start playing DDR again; I'm getting a little out of shape.
Um. I think that's all. Adiós.
