Purple/Pink Hair

My mother always seems to know what I'm doing even if I've told nothing about it to her. She seems to have a psychic ability that I just don't understand. I sometimes seem to think that I can stump her with my cunning and sharp wits, but it doesn't work. She always knows. It's a little scary, but amazing. This weekend I highlighted my hair pink and purple and when I called her to tell her I was going to a friends house she had the voice telling me that she knows something is up. I was a little cautious of what I told her and tried to make it seem not that obvious that I was doing something I'm sure she would've said no to, but she knew I was doing something. And it doesn't help that a friend talk to my mom and kinda slipped a little about it. I think after that, it was perfectly clear what was going on, but she still didn't say anything. I didn't see my mother until the next day when I came in to church and sat next to her on the bench and she still didn't say anything. That right there told me that she knew but didn't want to tell me. She still hasn't said anything to me about it and just talks to me like everything is still the same. This means something is coming..... I don't know what.... but what ever it is it can't be good.

Over




Well now that I don't really have to write these things , I don't know how often they will be or how analytical. But it will be weird if I just stop writing them completely. The point of these blogs I think was to get us to start thinking about the world around us and how that affects our paradigms. Writing helps us to think, to dream, to feel, and to discover. We realize that the things around us are important and do help us in some way or another to grow and to see that there are so many different ways to look at things and that everyone is different. Everyone's paradigms are unique and we need to notice that our way of thinking is not the only correct way to view things. I am actually really glad that Mr. Rich made us do these things every week even though I might not have seen it like this before. My eyes really have been opened no matter how cliche that sounds.

The ACT ( Sir Rich Read This One, Too!)



I recently got back my score of the ACT and I was actually quite surprised with my results. I did better than I thought I would but not as good as I could've done. I went into this test just thinking "Oh this is just my first time taking this, I'm just doing this to see what it's like. Don't stress over it". I think because I went into it like this I did better than if I had been really stressed and worried over it. Why does it work like this? I did better than some people who really prepared and were totally ready to take it when I most definitely didn't prepare. I think because I was telling myself not to stress I was able to calm down and really understand what I was doing. I was really calm the whole time and I really focused on reading the questions right. It really jsut helps to take things as they come a not stress. While it is very good to prepare, you don't have to tear yourself apart while doing it. Tests can be easily done if done while you are level-headed.



( I did best in the English and reading sections. Thanks Mr. Rich! I got a 28 because of that!)

Summer Creeps Quickly

Well you might be thinking, "hey, that's an oxymoron" when it actually isn't. How? Well summer as everyone knows is right around the corner. Which means that it is creeping up to us. It is coming up so quickly, but when we think of creeping we want to think of something trying to go slowly and sneakily. But it really is creeping quickly. Whether we want it to or not it is. Some of us might want it to come even quicker and some might not want it to come, but alas, it must come and relieve all the poor teachers who've had their nerves grated on constantly with no breaks for 9 months.
