“You’re a ghost haunting me. Leave me alone…”

   I’m not in a really chipper mood right now…. the main reason is because I just broke up with my boyfriend. But I don’t know if it is an official thing or not…. its more or less a temporary thing. I just do NOT want anything to do with him for the time being*the pirate face looks like it fit the emotion I’m feeling*…. I think I should move onto the happy things in life!

   See for awhile there things were hitting a real low for me but now they are… well were good again. For the longest time I was getting behind on my work feeling depressed and just not having a good time. BUT TIMES ARE A CHANGIN!

   For instance today was awesome*besides the bf trouble*! We got our ACT scores back and yeah thats right Melanie got a 28! At first I didn’t think that was good but it turns out to be the second highest score in school. A group of us have that score though so its not like I’m the only second person… the highest score was a 31… by Janelle of course… BUT Jesse and I are gonna retake them in December so we will have an Algebra 2 course under our belts and we can get us some 30’s.

   Also in CTC we learned CPR. It is really cool knowing I can save someones life like that. I would die from fatigue because it is so hard BUT thats okay cause I would save someone. You have to give two breathes and then do 30 compressions and then repeat. And you aren’t supposed to stop compressions for more than 10 seconds so you are in a big enough rush to kill.

   Soooo yeah in other recent news… I went to my state HOSA competition… and yeah that sucked. For one I was sick. Like puking every second sick. So any time we weren’t competing I was in bed whining and complaining. Other than that… well my team competed in medical reading. We had to read 5 books that had a kind of medical theme, then you took a test on the books and were giving oral questions. Which seems easy… but they are medical books so you had to know the diseases mentioned, their symptoms and remember the context in which they were brought up… WELL the main problem was… our teacher gave us one of the wrong books. She gave us a book that wasn’t even on the damned list and in the end that meant we didn’t read one of the books*we obviously didn’t medal*. So I came home early and missed the only important thing… the dance…. damn shame.

   I’m going to be getting a job working for my dad soon. Since he works out of his home office he needs someone to send faxes, go on the road with him and stuff like. So my job will basically be my fathers slave. The upside is he will pay me excellent and I will get to go on road trips… but my dad said I can’t dress like I normally would because of weird creepo guys… that would be a problem that I have never encountered before.

   Okay I think I’m going to go do me some homework…. but I am going to start writing these more often… they help me vent stress.
