back at school

today was the first day back at school after fall break. it wasn't as bad as i thought it would be. a part of me was glad to go back so i wasn't stuck alone at home bored. we didn't even really do anything at school today which rocked! we have parent/student conferences tomorrow so we just prepared for those all day. i do not even need to do one because i make good grades and mom knows it but i am doing one anyways. they "strongly recommend" it. besides doing nothing, we got report cards today! i got all As! its awesome. i was sure i was going to get Bs in at least 2 of my classes but i didn't. hooray! i am trying really hard to keep my grades up because i know high school is going to be hard and i want to make sure i get off to a good start next year. wow, i cant believe i am going to be in high school next year. that's crazy. and kind of scary. but i am excited. Julia says that high school is way better than middle school which is a relief. middle school kind of sucks. i only have to survive one more year. i think i can do it. maybe...

happy election day/ hang out with julia day!

okay, so i don't have anything to say about politics. i just wasn't sure what to name this post. :) Julia spent the night last night so we hung out last night and today. it was really fun! a nice ending to fall break. ugh. that's sad that fall break is over. i am trying not to think about it. anyhow....we didn't do much today. just ate lots of junk food and played in the woods. the leaves are finally changing behind our townhouses and they look so pretty! we mostly just goofed off and took pictures. LOTS of pictures. i love having a friend who doesn't care if i take a million pictures of her. its nice. she knows how much i love photography so she just lets me do whatever. i got quite a few good pictures today. here are some of my favorites...

they are kind of random but i like them. i hope i am a photographer one day. that would be awesome! well, that's about all for now. happy election day!
