After I took my English exam this morning I felt like I had just been ran over by a freight train. All I did from 8:30 to 11:30 this morning was sit at a desk, stare at my laptop screen, and type. Day three of exams - DONE!! Thank heavens!!
Tomorrow, I get to sleep in a little later because I don't start my exam until 9:15, but go until 12:15. All of my class mates get to sleep in though. :( They took english and math today, were as my dyslexic brain can't go from words to numbers that quickly so my Moma was able to get a letter from my psych doctor in time for today. But tomorrow maybe my toughest exam yet. I was stressed about my English exam, and now that I have taken that my stress level has plummeted. Now I am worried that I won't do well on my Algebra II/Trig exam!! What is wrong with me!?!?
I best go and study for my first, last midterm exam of high school! Wish me luck! Thank you for reading and have a preptastic day!

Day 2 of Exams
I have survived my second day of high school exams!! Yesterday, I had World History and Physics. Boy did my brain hurt yesterday! During exam week, each exam is two hours and you have two exams, with a break of about ten to twenty minutes in between the two exams. Today, I only had one exam, Latin.
My Latin exam went well. I got into the room and went through the test and about twenty minutes in I started saying to myself "I don't know this!!! I am going to fail." But after I did all the things I did know I went back and realized that I did know it.
During exam week the students get to dress comfortably, so like sweatpants, yoga pants, and jeans. Because yesterday was Monday, I wore athletic/sweatpants and a long sleeve t-shirt. But today because I only was going to be at school for two hours, I decide to wear jeans and a button up shirt. Yesterday and today I opted to go no contacts and just wear my glasses. When you are siting in one place for two hours, in a cold room, with no one moving or saying a word, contacts tend to dry out and they start to hurt your head.
Now, you all know what I actually look like in glasses. I have Ray-Ban's that I absolutely love. Everyone in my grade who has been with me for more then three years know that I wear glasses. I started wearing glasses in 1st grade and got contacts in the beginning of 7th grade. I haven't even had my Ray-Bans for a full year yet, I only got them this past January.
You really can't tell in this photo, but they are tortoise shell not black. I have tried on glasses with black frames and they make my face and hair look really weird. The brown in the tortoise shell makes my hair look lighter and my eyes darker.
The frames I have are one of Ray-Bans most popular frames. On the website they are called timeless. They really are though. I could go back the any decade in the last 50 years and not look out of place. I also just really like time less things. There official style name is RB5228.
My English teacher, Mrs. N, even said to me that she had never seen me in glasses. Even walking in the halls people were having to take double takes when they realized that I had glasses on. Wish me luck tomorrow on my English exam! Thank you for reading and have a preptastic day!

Hello, Exams. Goodbye, Sanity.
Exam: (noun) ig-'zam
A test. Short for examination. (Aka Pure Torture!!!)
Yesterday come home from school I had my laptop, two text books, three binders, and three spiral notebooks, or pretty much my entire locker.
So, that is my weekend. Thank you for reading and have a preptastic rest of your weekend!

Stress . . .
The past two weeks have been supper stressful for me. Last week I could barely sleep and when I did sleep it wasn't a very restful sleep. I didn't eat a lot, I was always had other things on my mind while I was in school. But yesterday the stress finally enveloped me and I had one of my very typical, what I like to call my stress attacks.
These "stress attacks" happens about once or twice a school year. What happens when the stress just becomes to much is that I just brake down into tears and sob. And trust me I am not very attractive when I cry. At the end of last year, I realized something. That I couldn't stress so much about school and my grades because if I did, I would end up having a psychotic break before I could graduate high school. I still have that realization and I was doing really well, it was a miracle that I lasted until November. I think that I just have to come to terms with the fact that I am stressed and not to ignore it.
I am trying to find better ways to deal with my stress. One of my outlets is my tennis. I find that hitting a tennis ball at 50 miles per hours helps me deal with the stress of being a teenager living in a world that if you don't get all A's during high school you wont make it into a good college, and just life in general.
So this is what I am really trying to get to with this post: you can't stress about everything, only stress about the things you can control and about the things you can't. So what are some of your stress relievers? I would love to hear about them in the comments. Have a preptastic day! I promise tomorrow I will have a better post about something fun!
