I think it may be time for a new blog post..

Okay, I am going to stop applogizing for not updating my blog here. I usually start off with that every post, because lately I have been only posting maybe once or twice a month. So, yeah. I try my best, but sometimes I forget or I do something else when I finally do remember.

So, I do remember that I wanted to tell you guys if I could graduate early or not. I could and I did. I am a high school graduate even though I don't brag about it as much as I did when I first found out. I posted it everywhere. I told some of my friends, but there are still poeple that have no idea. They will probably be mad if I did not tell them. I hope not. I am still waiting for my diploma. Everything happened so fast. I was planning on finished my year with Pyshics and Spanish, but then I realized I have all my credits. Within that week, I was making phone calls and writing emails to make sure everything was OK for me to graduate. It was and I could not believe it. I still have a hard time when people ask me what school I go to or what grade I am in.

About driving.. I have had two formal lessons with an instructer so far. It has been really scary, yet really fun. The first time I went out, I felt like I was going to pass out. I had a death grip on the steering wheel and the intructer kept telling me to relax. I could not even think about relaxing. I was going 55 down a country road! I could feel the car moving agianst the wind. When I was in the cities and towns, it was better because I did not have to go as fast. Oh, but I hate the turns. Left turns make me really nervous. I also have a habit of riding the break while making a turn, so by the time the turn is over, I am stopped. Then I have to turn the steering wheel back to center. The second time I when driving, I hit the curb because I accelorated while I still had the steering wheel to the right. I learned at that point that I need the let go of the steering wheel after I make a turn. The steering wheel will go back to center by itself. I feel a little bit better about driving now, but I don't think it will become my favorite activity for a while yet.

Well, I need to get back to doing some work. I still have quite a bit of work to do do.

TTYL,
