Hi everyone!
I am in a program called Big Brothers Big Sisters, and today is my last meeting with my little. I was matched with a sixth grader named Sierra, and she is a very sweet little thing. She is also really into horses and things like that, so we always have plenty to talk about. Today we are going to attend "Mighty Milers" aka little tiny children running as far as they can without stopping! I am very sad that this is our last meeting because we have been "sisters" for 2 years now. Before Sierra, I was matched with a first grade boy who was quite wild. I felt very accomplished when I would leave our meetings without a black eye. If you're having trouble imagining this, just think of a young wild indian child. I will admit him and I had lots of fun, but I was just really relieved when I my match up was reevaluated. Hopfully when I come home from college I can pay her a visit or two!

Almost The End
I am just really ready for May 31 to get here. I am having some serious problems finding motivation within myself. School... well I'm just sort of over it. However, I have watched a few of my classmates catch a case of senioritis long before myself... so it could be worse.
Summer is literally just around the corner, and I only have to wake up for GHS 14 more times... I mean, who wouldn't be pumped?
On the bright side, I am really excited inside because my golf team's sister golf team from Memphis is coming to hang out this weekend! We are going to see Pat Green and have a really fabulous weekend and a big giant sleepover. Once again, who wouldn't be pumped?
Have a great weekend everyone!

School
Well State Golf was sort of not what we expected, but hey we went to Austin. And we were classy.
School is becoming REALLY crazy. Yesterday we took the AP Calculus test, and lemme just tell ya about it. It was truly terrible. Bad I tell you, bad. I hope I made a 2. Seriously. It is also becoming more and more apparent to me that yes, I am going to college soon. It's just craziness. I am possibly a tiny bit sad... but mainly thrilled! All these years and it's finally here. Plus, I was just accepted to the Texas Tech Honors College! Do you know what that means? Okay, I will tell you. I get to move into the suites! No more bisexual atheist roomie for this girl!Yep, you could say things are really looking up. (Knock on wood!)
Well that's about all I know... I hope everyone has an awesome week!

Regional Week
Well, here we are. Hot on the trails of the Regional Week. On Sunday my golf team and I will be launching off at 7 AM to drive to Lubbock for our practice round. On Monday and Tuesday we will play in the Regional tournament. Then, the other seniors and I will stay in Lubbock with my grandma all week. We are going to do lots of awesome things such as shop, watch our dear pal Kartsen at the Regional Tennis Tournament, have accounting practice, and get our nails done.
Then, Friday = Go Time. Regional UIL is on Friday and my accounting team and I are gonna get after it. There is a whole slew of kids who advanced to Regional UIL and I am very pumped because I have never been to Regional UIL before.
Needless to say, it is going to have a buy week, and I hope everyone has a great one!

District Golf & UIL
I'm sure everyone will be thrilled to know that our UIL Accounting team was super successful and we will be moving on to compete at Regionals! Yay! We are all super pumped, especially those of us who have not gotten to go to Regional UIL before. It was a wonderful birthday present, and all in all a wonderful 18th birthday!
On another note, District Golf is finally here! Tomorrow is the day! I am getting SO nervous too! And I have no idea why? I know we will do great but I just haven't been playing up to my standards, and I guess it is stressing me out.
Today I did a little math, and I only have to wake up for high school 34 more times! Now if that isn't absolutely crazy to think about, I just don't know what is. Seems like just yesterday I was a freshman. Seriously, it's a lot to take in.
Well I need to go fill out some more scholarships, so everyone have a rockin week!

UIL
Long time no talk everyone! A few things have happened, but not too many! Golf has finally started, and we have won our first two tournaments of the year. Yay! We have another tournament on Saturday, but unfortunately it looks as if it will be snowing around that time... so we will see! I am getting very excited to see what the season holds.
UIL competition week has shown up and I can hardly even believe it. It seems like just yesterday our accounting coach was making sure we all knew we only had 8 weeks until contest, and now, here we are!! Things have been kicked into serious preparation mode. We have been practicing practicing practicing so let me just tell y'all I am SO ready for our hard work to pay off. The actual contest is on Friday, and I can't say I'm too crushed about not being at school on my 18th birthday. I'm going to be a grown up... yeah that's a weird thought.
Well anywho, I hope everyone has a fabulous week!

2013 Blizzard
Hello again everyone! SorryI didn't blog last week... I was very busy preparing myself for an extremely important UIL contest... Accounting! Let me just say, we are going to be a very succesful team.
Anyways, this week has really been something! We can all say that we were a part of the 2013 Blizzard. When I say we had a blizzard, I mean we had a straight running blizzard. It snowed around 14 inches and the entire time it was snowing the wind was blowing... big time. I was very concerned about my precious little calves that were being born during the snow...but everything seems to have turned out okay. After all of that snow, school was cancelled on Monday and Tuesday, yay! It seems like everytime we about get the snow cleared up around this little town Mother Nature strikes again. But I'm not complaining, I don't have a problem with late school starts. :)
In case anyone is wondering, prom was fabulous, and Tierra, thankfully, was booted off the bachelor! It was about time.
Well... that's about all I know, have a lovely week everyone!
