First day of school

Well, here we are - the first day of school.

It wasn't all that bad, really. I felt stupid getting lost as a sophomore, but whatever...just proves how "blonde" I can be (forgetting I'm a natural brunette, of course). The classes were boring, seeming to drag on forever; just a bunch of papers passed out to be signed. Oh, and did I mention I forgot to print out and bring one of the summer assignments for my AP European History class? So tomorrow I get half credit. Brilliant.

As for the people...ever since I got caught raving at the beginning of the summer (a parent phone call, no less), my social life kinda dwindled a bit. Not saying I became an outcast or anything, but it just got...well, different. Like I didn't belong as much anymore because for now I have to lay low on the raving until I have trust again. So there are a lot of friends I didn't really get to see over the summer. Seeing them now, I'm really hoping to get totally back into the swing of those friendships - particularly with my friends Katie, Maddie, Sarah, and a bunch of others (my mind's a little blank right now, the entire list of names is escaping me. Forgive me). By the looks of it, I'll be able to; I just hope I'm not wrong.

This year is looking like it's got some pretty decent potential, if I play my cards right. Wish me luck!

Just starting out...

Hi,

Before today, I'll admit
I never really thought about blogging...it was just one of those things that never occurred to me, you know? But lately I've been feeling the ne
ed to get some emotions out; just have a place to talk. So I think I'm going to try this blog thing out, see how it goes. In fact, I think I might make this a diary of sorts...with everything in it, even dreams I've had the night before. No rules, no exceptions. Just me, honest and simple.

I'll start out with a little bit about me - that seems like a pretty decent place to begin.

I've been 15 since April 8, living as an only child in Phoenix, Arizona। My parents are a little...well, okay I'll be honest - they're conservative, overbearing control freaks who had me a little late in years. At 5'1"3/4 (I round it up to 5'2"), I was the tallest in my class up through elementary school but am now stuck with some of the school's shortest kids. It suits me fine; I don't mind being fun-sized^^. I go to high school like most teenagers, hang out with friends, party (rave also), try to keep up the grades...especially in the two honors classes. Out of school, I enjoy all forms of dance (jazz, hip hop, contemporary, lyrical, jazz funk, hardstyle/kandi step, etc.), though I take Contemporary at the studio Conservatory of Dance. I also taking singing lessons, participate in one of my school's show choirs, role-play, draw when the inspiration grips me, take pictures, and do Dog Agility, among other things. Apart from that, I've got a few pets: Toby the border terrier mix, our new border terrier puppy Stella, a white and blue parakeet Crystal, and a handful of fish. Toby is depicted in the below photo.

I start school tomorrow; it's no lie that I'm a little unexcited to start my sophomore year. My life sorta sounds normal, looking at it like this - but we'll see. I mean, I left out a lot.

What's the point in spilling your guts during the first entry?
