I Finished It!

Today’s the last day of the Slice of Life Challenge! I didn’t think I’d be able to finish it but I did! I feel so accomplished now! But I’m so happy I’m done. But it’ll feel weird tomorrow, when I don’t have to write a blog post.

No Time

Why does my history teacher either give us no homework, or so much homework it’s undoable? There’s literally no time to do it, if you actually have to do something over the weekend. Luckily, she gives it to us over the weekend, rather than on a school night, but really, why?! And she only tells us about the upcoming test, I don’t know, four days before it! What is that! How come we have to fill out the study guide too? Since we don’t go over the study guide in class, you might not have all the right answers for the test, so you’ll be studying the wrong thing. That’s just a recipient for disaster.

I’m So Scared

My math test is today and I’m so scared. The grade I get on this test could either make or break my A in math. And this is the last grade of the quarter, so if I don’t do so well on it,  I might not make it into the all A honor roll, and the retakes for the test are on my birthday. I’m so scared, wish me luck.

Softball Season Started!

I didn’t think softball season started for another week, but today’s my first practice! I love softball, it’s by far my favorite sport. I really hope I have another great team. Almost all of the time, during softball season, I have an awesome team, and I’m hoping for another great team again! But even if my team isn’t great, I’m sure it’ll be great. And two of the girls on my team last season, are on my team again, and one of the girls who’s in my team again, is a REALLY good pitcher.

I’ve Waited All Year For This

My birthday’s only a week from today! I’ve waited all year for my birthday. The bad thing about my birthday this year, is that it’s on a Monday, which everyone knows to be the worst day of the week, and it’s on an A day, and B days are WAY better than A days.

Softball Is Better Than Life

I can’t wait for softball season to start up again! Softball is my favorite sport, and I’m actually pretty good at it. This is going to be my fourth or fifth season doing it. I’m a first basemen, and I really enjoy first. But if I’m ever in the outfield, I always end up zoning out, until my coach yells at me. But when I’m at first, there’s almost always going to be a play at first, so I have to remain focused. And I can’t tell you how good it feels to hit a home run, or even a triple. You’re whole team is so happy, and the coach always appreciates a home run, especially when the bases are loaded. I can’t wait until it starts again.

Why Weekends Are Better Than School Days

Weekends are WAY better than school days for the following reasons:

  1. On weekends, there’s no school, and for the most part no homework
  2. You don’t have to worry about the science test coming up, because it’s the weekend, time to relax, not worry about school
  3. If you play any sports, you’ll probably have a game on the weekend, so that’s another opportunity to win
  4. If you do have any homework, you have 48 hours to get it done, that’s a lot more than the three hours you’d normally have
  5. You can wake up as late as you want, because there’s no one to tell you to get up or else you’ll be late on the weekend

But then Monday comes around, and ruins it all.

Last Second Shot

During gym, we had the basketball tournament, and my team lost almost instantly. But we didn’t know,  that we lost to the winning team. But my friend, Srija, was on that team, and like, crushed us. Because if a girl scores, your team gets two points, but if a boy scores, you only get one point, so her team just passed it to her, and ended up winning by like, ten. So when we lost, we were out of the rest of the tournament, but my friend, Giulietta, and I didn’t care, we just talked the whole time. But the team that also made it to the playoffs, had like, every single good player in the class. So, the really good team was up by four, so I went to get water, but by the time I got back, they were tied, and then they were winning. But the other team, the team my friend Srija was on, was losing. And everyone thought they were going to lose, but Jake Nathan, made a shot at the last second, and they were tied. So if a game ends in a tie, the jersey team gets to shoot a free throw. So they chose their best player, she shot. And missed. Jake’s team won, and all his friends ran onto the court, and just screamed. They were so happy.

The Time Adds Up

Strings is great. Besides the fact that I have to practice. I know that sounds weird, playing an instrument, and not wanting to practice, but if you already play an instrument, and you have to practice that every day, plus homework, the time adds up.
