It's always great to get down and dirty with your tasks. That's exactly what happened while finishing up my final project. These are a few of the photos taken while we created our deadly situations.

Class Presentation: Final Project; Deadly Situations
Everyone knows that classes usually end the year with some sort of big project; well one of my classes that I have been taking for years now let's us choose our own topics. Of course, being as into the mysterious and unknown as I am, I tend to choose topics involving death each year. This year it was solely on the different types of deadly situations in the world. You should try and check it out sometime; I've placed it on google slides and provided the link below just for you!!!! Tell me what you think and if you really want you can even complete the tasks that correspond to it.

Serving the Community
There are many ways to help out the people around you. You can mow the lawn of that elderly woman down the street. You can help that new neighbor carry all their groceries in the house. You can buy that homeless man on the corner a burger and fries.
Usually I help out through my church. Over the summer we host VBS for the kids who need something to keep them occupied. On nights when it's just too cold outside, we house the homeless. Once a month we offer a free dinner with appetizers and dessert included to anyone who shows.
What do you do for your community?
Are you helping the world become a better place or are you letting it continue on it's downward spiral?
Make your choice.

End of the Year Projects
Having projects be your final grade is great. It helps bring up your grades tremendously if you need it to. The thing is though, that every teacher has started giving book reports as the final project. When you have three or more classes with this, all due on the same week; it can be a little rough. Now throw in a powerpoint project, a short story project, more classwork, and studying for all exams; you are toast.
Choose your poison wisely my friends. It could be the death of your brain for the summer. Reincarnated only to be struck by summer assignments and the return of school in September!

Nerds Unite!!
So I didn't realize it soon enough to do a post about it but I'll mention it today; May the Fourth Be With You!
There are few things that nerds/geeks do that get the rest of the world excited and involved. Star Wars is one. Lord of the Rings is another.
Be proud of what you are and everything you do!

The Ease
Ever realize that all the time you spend stressing seems to be for nothing after the task is actually done? I have. We all are aware by now that I had exams today and was stressing non-stop; but the exams actually didn't seem to bad when I was actually sitting there taking them. This could mean one of two things; either I was totally over prepared and did great or my brain just said screw it and just picked random answers.
While I would love to rant about what I new off the bat and what made me sit there and blunder but sadly I am swarn to secrecy.
HaHaHa
I honestly don't care about that little pack thing but I don't really remember much of the questions; this doesn't help my cause for getting a good grade though.
Come July we will have my results. Let's hope they are good.

Relaxation is the Key
Seeing as exams are just over twelve hours away; you would think I would be stressing out majorly, but I'm surprisingly not; yet...
I had originally planned on spending all day studying and stressing over getting a really good score on my tests. After all, it will affect how long I may have to go to college for.
Instead, we skipped church and have been lounging around all day watching movies, it's oddly comforting; but I'm willing to bet everyone a hundred dollars that come the time of the exam I will be ready to rip my hair out.
Going to college and eventually making enough money to easily support my entire family has always been my goal. Especially since we havent been able to afford everything. But that won't happen if I can't get into college. Passing these exams can help me cut the cost tremendously, getting a four on the two I take tomorrow alone will help pay for half a two classes. If I can manage to get fours on all the exams I take this year and next, I can start out college as a sophomore!! How crazy would that be?!
So while I should be panicking, I'm not, and it worries me on just how poorly I'm going to do.
Everyone please pray for me; I need all the help I can get to be where I want to in the future.

Last Session
Oh my frickin god!!!!!!!! I'm definitely stressing out over these exams and it's going to screw with my scores!!! In order for the classes to count as college credit at the college I hope to attend, I need a four or higher on both exams....!!!!! Somebody kill me now!!!!! I'm freaking out too much and I'm definitely completely unprepared!!! What am I going to do next year when I will have three or four to do?! AAHHHHHHHH
I'm sorry but this is a perfectly normal reaction for teenagers and if you don't act out on something like this than there is something wrong with you. Please stop making things worse for the people that feel this way and try to help them through their struggles.
FYI that is a 100% true statement of how I've been feeling today with all the pressure.

Immaturity: School Kids Playing Games
You know, I was going to do a post about how the first month has been rough trying to get the posts up when i post them and stuff but that all changed after school today.
Apparently students still find it funny to place bomb threats and cause an epidemic.
Early in the morning, both teachers and students alike discovered not one but two threats in the bathrooms of our schools. The entire building was evacuated by 9:30 and the police arrived no later than 10:00 am. By 11 the juniors and sophomores going to prom were dismissed and at 12 the rest of the student body who did not care for their possessions right away were transported home.
But for the rest of us that needed our objects that were left inside the school; we all had to wait until 1 pm to retrieve them.
I for one was not worried about things such as phones and keys like most others; no, I have to be the frickin nerd who waits to go inside to get my textbooks so I may study for exams on Monday.
Well the teachers liked that about me; just another reason I am a teacher's pet I guess.
Honestly though, that was nearly four hours that we were stuck outside doing absolutely nothing when I could have been getting through more review!
Everyone needs to just grow up and let things play out the way they are intended to; and that doesn't involve writing bomb threats on the mirrors in school bathrooms!
