Summer in Motion

Ah, it seems like my summer routine is in motion now.  I've got a pretty regular weekday schedule:

- Drivers' Ed.

- Lunch/Hanging Out/Movie/Blogging

- Tae Kwon Do/Boy Scouts

- Badminton

This is the last of the two bookwork weeks for Drivers' Ed.  Next week, (luckily, at the same time of the two previous classroom weeks) I will be doing the practical portion, which is composed of six three-hour long sessions, Monday-Saturday.  I will drive for one of the hours, and I will be observing other students for the remaining two.  Observation.  Fun, fun...

Sorry I haven't written in a while.  I have been arranging a lot of things in my schedule for the summer and haven't had much time for posting.  The final draft of my summer vacation is almost complete.

I won't be in Indiana from July 1-15 because of Philmont.  I can't wait!  New Mexico will be amazing!  Unfortunately, there is one more practice hike I have to go to.  Blagh.  That's this Friday.  I'm really not looking forward to that, but it's morethan worth it in the end.

The family vacation will happen sometime at the end of July to mid-August.  We don't know the exact dates or even where we are going yet.  Probably... hopefully... Peru - my idea.  I know that we'll be leaving the states for sure.  We didn't leave the U.S. last year, which is like the first summer in ages when we haven't, so we're all dying to get out this year.

On June 28, I'll be testing for my Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do!  I am totally ecstatic about that!  That means that I'll be able to attend when I want to, not because I have to -same for Boy Scouts.  My Eagle Board of Review is in the process of being scheduled, but it will happen before June 26.  I'm so excited; my Freshmen schedule will be so much more flexible than this last year's was.

Sadly, I've lost one game of badminton since the last time I posted.  My record for the summer is now 4-1.  What a blemish.  ¡Que lastima!  Oh, and I'm looking for some weekend badminton tournaments to compete in on the side of everything else.  If you here of any local ones, please, please, please tell me in a comment or whatever!

Here is a really funny music video that Alwaysbored introduced me to!  Watch it!

Ha, ha...

You may or may not know, but over the last two-and-a-half months, Turtles has been compiling a list of one hundred quotes.  She suggests that you read all of them.  I have, and it's worth it!  They'll be posted in a follow-up in a few minutes after I submit this, because I actually had over 25,000 characters with the quotes.  It wouldn't accept it.  That's the first time that's ever happened to me!  I won't be doing any BL quotes in either this one of the follow-up, because you'll get dumped with all those anyway.

Oh, and speaking of birthdays, mine is in two days!  I'm excited about that, too!

 

Wow.  That was a long post.  =)

OMG!  I'm sorry to everyone, especially Turtles!  The site won't let me post the quotes, even in a separate entry.  It says they have too much mark-up... whatever that is in blogging terms.

oh and as far as the 'too much markup' thing.. that normally means like too much formatting i believe. just put it in whatever font & size you type your blog entries in & that should work hopefully!
