• The Hardest Summer

  Last week was my last week of high school, and I graduated this past Monday. It was incredibly bittersweet: I was so excited for school to finally, finally be over — but at the same time, I realized that it was the end. I can be one of those kids who...

• Four more days.

  Last week, I voted for the first time. It was wonderful, ah! I had a bit of a crisis in the voting booth, as John Edwards was still on the ballot and I really, really wanted to vote for him — but I held back and decided that my vote should go towards...

• Still scared, less anxiety-ridden.

  First of all, as Amy G requested: college talk! Well, more of it anyway. I'm currently trying to decide between Hampshire College and Juniata College. I'm leaning more for Juniata right now, but sometimes I'll be leaning more for Hampshire...

• I am scared out of my mind.

  So I just got back from a pretty interesting English trip. We went to Memphis and Oxford, Mississippi (hgfujdksdhsfajk the latter of which was AMAZING). My english teacher, Mr. Liimatta, is fantastic because he played Harry and the Potters for us. Honestly...

• Enough with the snow days already!

  Seriously, we have another snow day today. A one- or two-hour delay, I might have been okay with. But a snow day?! It doesn't look like the roads are even that bad! And as far as I know, all we got was snow — not our usual ice. Ugh! At this rate,...

• Oh, the absurdity of my evenings.

  Yesterday, I mentioned the fact that I had to write a paper about something absurd, and that I was having issues thinking of a topic. Well, I decided to just start writing and see what came up. Um, here it is, ahaha. Note: it started out merely about... Posted Feb 07 2008, 05:50 PM by amyh with | with 1 comment(s) Filed under: english, livejournal

• I love how weird I get, haha.

  Since we finished Crime and Punishment , I've developed a much more serene attitude. Perhaps it's because our next unit is poetry, meaning we don't have to read any novels until after spring break! It most likely has a lot to do with the fact... Posted Feb 06 2008, 08:13 PM by amyh with | with no comments Filed under: school, colleges, english, books, yamapi

• An overview of events that prove how absolutely exciting my life is. Um.

  What's up in Amy's life lately? (Obviously not making interesting posts. But bear with me. Life is not very interesting right now.) So let's see... last post was last Thursday? Ah yes, the voice post! I love voice posts. Hmm. But since then...

• Grades: I should probably feel more upset, but I'm surprisingly content.

  So yes, today I spent basically the entire day at Third Street Stuff, the local quirky coffee shop, with Saskia. We did homework, read, etc. I finished The Town And The City — by Jack Kerouac, which kind of disappointed me as I expected this epic wonderful...

• On idealism, mottos, and happy

  At the beginning of last semester, I adopted a motto: "Suck it up and DEAL!" Vincent and I seem to like this a lot. But it's true: get over the drama and the hate and the negativity. Just live, roll with the punches, accept life as it is... Posted Jan 03 2008, 02:53 PM by amyh with | with no comments Filed under: school, friends, english, idealism, happy, quotes

• So. Freaking. TIRED.

  Man. I haven't blogged in a bit, now have I? We've had tests basically every day in English this week. Practice AP multiple choice on Monday, test on three memorized poems on Tuesday, practice AP writing prompt on Wednesday, and a check test on...

• Oh college.

  This morning, I go to take my last SAT. Last weekend was the last ACT. And now, today, the last standardized test I will have to take for all of this stupid college stuff. God. Finally. Then when I get home, it's editing up my college essay a bit... Posted Nov 03 2007, 06:30 AM by amyh with | with 2 comment(s) Filed under: school, colleges, english, testing
