3/2/2020 9 Comments Thursday Night Reflection #5 Why are some exams easy but then some are hard? Most exams for me are so difficult but then some are super easy. I’m so conflicted on how my exams will go this trimester. Exams always stress me out even though they might seem easy because I feel like I’m not prepared enough. There is also the added stress of studying. Everytime I study I feel like I study the completely wrong thing so when I actually get to the exam it looks like a bunch of random stuff even though I attempted to study.
My exam for Earth Science I’m definitely going to fail. I’m horrible at science. Especially Earth Science. Usually I do somewhat okay on the tests but there is no way I could ever do good on the exam. I don’t even think studying will save me on the exam because we’ve learned so much that there is no way I could ever be able to remember every piece of information. There are so many numbers to things and elements to remember. Yeah there is no way that I’m passing that. My exam for Child Development will probably go okay. I’m not super worried about Child Development because it’s an easy class for me. Well most electives are easy. I don’t even have an exam in that class. It’s a project which I’m already done with. The project was about doing research on when bringing a baby home from the hospital what things you should have in the nursery. I also had to find things you need for transporting your baby. You also had to write 10 do’s and don’ts of building a nursery. So it wasn’t difficult at all because it was basically all just research. My exam for Choir doesn’t even exist so I’m not worried. For Choir on exam day we just usually sit around. It’s extremely hard to even fail Choir because it’s just a participation grade so failing the exam is nearly impossible. My exam for Math might go okay. Math is sometimes easy for me but then sometimes it isn’t so I can’t tell how it will go. We usually get a review packet before the exam. We also can use notes and any worksheets that we want. That might seem like it would be helpful but it really isn’t. There’s so many worksheets that we’ve done and I almost have an entire notebook full of notes just for math alone so if I wanted to find something it would be extremely difficult. At least the packet narrows it down a little bit. My exam for English will go okay. I hope. I don’t see how I could mess it up. I really like writing so I feel like it will go just fine. The only downside is that I sometimes have so many ideas when I’m writing so it's difficult for me to write with a time limit. In conclusion, I feel like my exams could go either really good or really bad. I just hope that my studying skills get better so I can pass my exams. I only have like 3 exams so the more I think about the less worried I get about failing.

2/6/2020 0 Comments Thursday Night Reflections #4 Why can’t Faber and I get to go towning more? Faber and I LOVE going towning. We haven’t gone in a really long time and it makes me really sad because towning is so fun. So many things happen during towning, that’s what makes it so incredibly fun. It’s not just Faber and I who go towning. Sometimes we go with Taylor or Gloria. Most of the time it’s just Faber and I though.
Towning consists of my friends and I going to food places. That’s it. I feel like that doesn’t sound fun to most people but it is literally the funnest thing in the world for my friend group. Last time we went towning it consisted of Destiny, Taylor, Gloria, and I getting ready at Faber’s house for the Snowball and then going to Texas Roadhouse. We weren’t the smartest in going to a popular restaurant before the Snowball. Also nobody thought of calling to make a reservation until 20 minutes before we decided to go so we had to wait like 20-30 minutes once we got there. We couldn’t go anywhere else for dinner because we were short on time already so we had to wait the 30 minute wait time. At least we didn’t get the hour wait time like other people were getting while we were waiting. After dinner we went to the Snowball which doesn’t count as towning so I won’t talk about that part. But after the Snowball we went to Meijer to get snacks but we were all kind of hungry for real food so we decided to go out for a second dinner. The only place that was open as late as we were out was Pizza Hut. So then we went to Pizza Hut and had a really odd waiter. Faber ordered a meaty p-zone (which is an actual thing on the menu) and that was the end of that towning time. Another time Faber, Taylor, and I all went towning. We went to Max and Emily’s first. We had soup there. It was pretty good. Then we went to Dairy queen. Taylor left while we were at Dairy Queen because she had to go to her grandma’s house but Faber and I still continued towining. Faber and I waddled to Pixie. At Pixie we had coney dogs and fries. Minding you we ate all this stuff in a matter of like 3 hours. We had way too much food that day. We also spent $60 all together just on one day of towning. That wasn’t my proudest moment but it was still really fun. I just felt super sick afterwards. Towning is really fun and I really want to go now. There’s so many more fun stories that I could tell about towning but I’ll leave those for another story. I highly recommend going towning with your friends if you’ve never done that before. Suddenly it’s time for Faber and I to go towning because I miss it so much. 1/23/2020 0 Comments Thursday Night Reflections #3Why are there so many birthdays in January? I swear everyone I knows birthday is in January. Like my sister, me, my uncle, and my Grandpa were all born in January. Like do all parents want their kids to be born in January? I mean I don’t know why some would want their kids birthday to be in January because having a birthday in January sucks a lot. You can’t really do much for your birthday which isn’t fun. Unless you want to go sledding that’s kinda the only option. When you are older sledding isn’t really fun at all. Like when you’re young, it's so easy to be outside for hours at a time going sledding but when you are older it’s terrible being outside for 5 minutes let alone long enough to really do anything fun for your birthday like sledding. My sisters birthday was on the 22nd of January and she turned 19. For her birthday she wanted makeup, gift cards, and face masks. I mean I don’t know much about makeup or like what type of gift card she would want but I know face masks really well so I got her a bunch of those. I mean that’s kind of a terrible gift but I literally had no idea what else to get her. She also doesn’t live with my mom and I so don’t really know her interests. I guess face masks are better than nothing? My birthday was on the 11th of January and I turned 16. For my birthday I didn’t really care what I got because I got most things I wanted for Christmas. I actually kinda wasn’t expecting anything. I got a suitcase and some money. I mean who doesn’t like money for their birthday. The suitcase was really cool and it was humongous. I could probably fit my entire wardrobe in that suitcase. Okay that might not be 100% true but the moral of the story is that its giant. My uncle's birthday was on the 2nd of January and he turned 40. For his birthday he wanted some paint brushes, paint, and some books. I can’t paint anything to save my life but I own a lot of books so guess what I got him? If you guessed books you would be completely right. My uncle is a big reader so I got him the Harry Potter series and some random book he wanted from the book store. My grandpa's birthday is on the 16th of January. I’m not exactly sure how old he is. That might make me a terrible granddaughter but I kinda lost track of how old he is at this point. I think he is 50? Maybe? Anyway, he didn’t really want anything and my grandpa kinda hates getting gifts for some weird reason. So I just got him a card and a magnet for his fridge with his favorite sports team on it. That’s a terrible present but I genuinely had no idea what else to get him because he is so difficult to buy for. 12/12/2019 1 Comment Thursday Night Reflections #2What am I getting my family for Christmas? I honestly have no idea what to get my family for Christmas. Everyone is different ages and likes different things so I’m lost on what to get everyone. I mean some people have given me ideas but they aren’t the best ideas.
For my mom she wanted a couple of sweatshirts and a steering wheel cover. Like those couldn’t be any more opposite if it tried. Normally I like having some sort of theme and I don’t know how to make a theme out of that stuff at all. Like suddenly I’m screwed? I already ordered her sweatshirts but the steering wheel cover I haven’t yet. For my sister she wanted things for her new house and makeup. Yet again I can’t really make theme out of those things. She also didn’t specify what she really needed for her house or what kind of makeup she wanted so that is no help to me. I’m also not really the type to ever wear makeup so I have no idea what to get her. I don’t really know what’s good and what’s not. For the house stuff I don’t know what she needs so I don’t want to get her something and her not use it. I haven’t gotten anything for my sister because I’m a little lost. For my grandparents they asked for anything to do with sports things or craft things. Now what exactly am I supposed to get for sports things? Like there’s millions of sports things I could buy them. Also they both do different craft things so I’m a little lost. My grandpa does wood working and my grandma makes towels so what crafts am I supposed to get them that they both like? So far I’ve gotten them nothing because I haven’t gone shopping yet but I will be going tonight so hopefully I can figure something out. For my uncle he wanted some stuff for his kitchen and stuff for his living room. Yet again what does that mean? Like pots and pans or towels for his kitchen. Or for his living room does he want pillows or a blanket. I’m so lost. Hopefully he specifies what he wants or I have no idea what I’m supposed to get him. I know he likes painting though so I might get him some paint, a canvas, and some brushes even though that isn’t what he asked for. It’s just a safe bet because I know he likes doing crafty things. My friends and I are doing a secret Santa thing and I drew my friend Glorias name. She wanted face masks, nail polish, and some other beauty and candy related things. I went shopping last night for her and got her white nail polish, gummy bears, skittles, chapstick, a blanket, and a face mask. I put her gifts in a bag that has hohoho written all across it because I suck at wrapping. I mean at least I have one person's shopping done. 12/12/2019 1 Comment Thursday Night Reflections #1Why do weird things always happen to my friends and I when we are going towning or just hanging out? This paragraph will be about Faber. Weird things always happen to us. Like one time some guy asked us if we eat like dolphins. Like what does that even mean? Another time we got asked if we were 18 for some weird voting thing but we are very obviously not 18 and even the guy admitted to not thinking that we were 18. So what was the point in asking? Another time we weren't really towning but were just playing charades with just Faber and I. Was it fun? Yes. Should there have been more people playing? Again yes. We didn't have anyone else to play with us so we had to play with just us but the things we had to act out got weirder and weirder. Another time when Faber and I were walking downtown to go towning (obviously) and there was a weird guy following us. As Faber and I turned the corner there and I turned around and I saw a creepy looking fella running at us. The reason why he is creepy fella because around Fabers neighborhood he’s known for doing creepy things. I obviously told Emily to turn around and she looked and she got scared for her life. He followed us all the way until we got to downtown and he finally stopped following us. All of these things were just really weird situations.
Why do weird things always happen to my friends and I when we are towning or just hanging out. This paragraph is about Taylor. One time in the summer Taylor, Faber, and I were in Taylor's pool at night and we had just added glow sticks to the pool because it was night and it seemed fun. Until the house across from Taylor's lights turned on even though the house next to Taylor's has no one living in it. So we all got super scared because the lights weren’t on earlier so when the lights turned on we all went running out of the pool. We got back in the pool because we just figured it was left on by accident but oh boy were we so wrong. Another time when Taylor and I were at the movies and people around us were so invested in the movie that they kept basically talking to the screen which was just so weird. Another time when Taylor, Faber, and I were downtown just sitting on a bench because we didn’t want to go home yet when these guys walked past us a few times which freaked Faber and I out because when they walked passed they didn’t say a word. Well after a few minutes they walked passed us again but this time Faber and I saw the one guy hit his friend and say something and Faber and I got scared so we got up and started to walk away and Taylor was confused because all of a sudden Faber and I were freaked out and walking away. Then as Taylor got up one of the guys shouted something along the lines of that he wanted to “holler at us’” (whatever that means.) My response was very obviously no thanks we were good then they must’ve not heard me and they started to walk towards us but then I shouted even louder no thank you and that we were good and we started running away. Luckily the guys didn’t follow us. Weird things always happen to my friends and I. |
