The Past Six Months...

February

• Decided I needed a job (reffing in the summer isn't enough for a $4000 trip to France now is it?)  Then I applied at ≈ 12 businesses in my area.  Almost started working, but they never contacted me back after the first call.

• Started 2nd semester - Math, Science, Careers & Civics and Spanish.

• Received my report card for 1st semester;
• French: 85%
• Business: 91%
• English: 92%
• History: 98% --> this could get me the History Award, to join my gr9 Business Award.  Wouldn't that be swell?

• Forgot about writing.

March

• Studied nonstop.

• Got a job at Wendy's :)

• Worked a lot.

• March Break = relaxing.

April

• Took the literacy test (which was easy and boring)

• Realized how my finances suck.  Began obsessively making spreadsheets... now have gone through about 7 rewrites of spreadsheets.  

• Went on a cruise.  See picture of ship? -->

• Missed a ton of work while on said cruise, but it was totally worth it.  I really miss it :(

May

• 
  
• Celebrated boyfriend's birthday with his family.  I'm a lucky girl :)

• Discovered that they screwed up my grade 11 schedule.  Now I'm taking Gym and grade 10 Food and Nutrition because all the courses I wanted were at the same time.  Time Turner, anyone?  I felt like Hermione :\

• Had a birthday party pour moi.

June

• Celebrated my birthday, the day after my Grandma died.

• Funeral, sadness and non-birthday-like-drama. 

• Didn't really have a great birthday in the end, but I got Sims 3 Generations, so gift wise is was great :)

• Exams followed my birthday.  Did fairly well on everything but science, which was looking to be an 80 by the end of the term.  (Will post marks once I get my report card - mail strike has delayed it.)

• Got my G1.  It's a written test which allows you to drive with restrictions, in case you don't know.  I can drive with less restrictions in about a year, and with none in 2 years.

July

• Went to Wonderland with my work people, which was a lot of fun :)

• Relaxed and began to edit again.  Not sure if I even like the story anymore, I'm so sick of it.  Maybe if I change the characters names I'll like it more? :P

Obviously, not much has happened in my life recently.  But now you know :)
