Semester Reflection
The past semester has been an extremely crazy one outside of school. I've had to cope with a lot and I'm hoping it won't hold me back from graduation. I missed a lot of school due to family issues, housing issues and sickness. I know I'm extremely capable of passing at this school I've just had very undesirable circumstances. I need to kick it into high gear for these last couple of weeks. I can only pray that they let me graduate. God knows stuff like this is out of your hands and all you can do is ask for help from a higher power and hope they hear your call.
Family, part 1
I decided that since there are way too many parts to my family to put in one post, I will split it up into what will most likely be a four part story.
The first nine years of my life were fairly ordinary. There were a couple of things that might have set it apart some. When I was an infant there was a drive-by done on my house, but it was because we lived in an unpleasant neighborhood, and we later found out that out house was not the target. My dad was partially involved in this period of my life. Him and my mom split up before I can even remember but I do have memories of my dad drinking a lot and him and my step mom fighting constantly. I can remember hearing her blame me for everything from my room and saying she never wanted a kid in the first place.
My mom was doing very well for herself at this time as well. After the whole drive-by incident she found an apartment in a much better neighborhood for us to live in and got a really good job as a dealer at what was then Flamingo Casino. She had a very healthy relationship.
This was probably the most, and only stable period of my life.

My Weekend
Last weekend was a fairly productive one. On Friday I went to a friend's birthday party. It was pretty crowded and I saw a lot of familiar faces which was very fun. Then on Saturday my friend had her graduation party and I went to meet a lot of her family and friends out in Oak Grove, Missouri. All of that took up most of the day for both of them day and I was pretty worn out on Sunday so I used it as a relaxation day, to try and get rid of some of the stress I've been building up. I did indulge in some video games, but it was on Wii so I got exercise in the process.

You are:
moderately expressed extravert
moderately expressed intuitive personality
distinctively expressed feeling personality

I think this is fairly accurate. I like to be open and talk to people to a certain extent. I always follow instict rather than rules. I'm very in touch with my feelings and the feelings of those around me and I rarely ever judge. I think it sums me up fairly well.

Time Management
After watching how much time I waste just sleeping and laying around I've decided that I will begin to exercise instead. This will give me more energy and allow me to start a proper sleep schedule.
I also spend a lot of time on my computer and games aimlessly. If I could replace this time with reading or intelligent computer use I could gain a lot of knowledge that could be very useful.
Lastly I will cut out the pointless road trips to no where. Or at least bring something productive to do while I am on them.

Personal Updates
It's been pretty slow in the personal life lately. Basically the same daily routine every day. I'm still trying to figure out the whole school thing. I know I'm going for sure but with all the changes that have gone on in such a short time there have been many plans that have gone out the window. Still holding up hope that I will be able to attend in the fall though.

A Day To Remember
This is one of my all time favorite bands. They have a very poppy sound but eventually get into heavy metal breakdowns. I have grown to call their sound pop-core. At this point they already have released three album, which I believe the second is best. UPDATE PENDING!
