so last semester i was highest ranked in my geometry class.
now i have a 57 F. but that was before i did a quiz and before she re-entered a homework assignment in.
but im afraid i flunked the quiz :[ our class has never gotten any F's in it and now no one has high than a C. so,
it's definitely because she switched the teaching style. so i have a plan:
if i end up getting a F... i'll work my butt off the rest of the semester. and if i get an A next six weeks, and an A the last six weeks... then my grade will be a B overall & if i get a B or an A on the final exam, my grade will still be a B overall. lets hope for the besttt!
hm, tomorrow we have FCAT (florida comprehension assessment testing) or something like that.. it's the writing part.
hope i do alright :)
and as for drivers ed, i'm not doing too bad. i just wish i could drive more when i'm with my family..
peace.

i need to find where i am in life now.
i want a change... because if i do something different with myself, i'll feel open to do anything.
and that's what i want.. to feel free and be myself. i am myself, but i dont know.
it sucks i can't do what i want. because i'm 16, dont drive. no car.
i want to change my look. to where it's still me. but spice it up a little.
so when i can donate my hair and i chop it off, i'm doing something else. who knows?
i just want my sisters to come home. to help me with it.

saturday ~ family came in town and spent the whole weekend with them. it was actually pretty entertaining if i do say so myself.
yesterday ~ skipped school. grandpa's funeral ; cried a lot, and i cried when we were pulling up to the cemetary and my sister was like "oh my gosh lauren, you cant cry yet! be strong for grandma!" so of course i start laughing (my way of trying to stop crying). i feel horrible for my grandma.. these past couple of weeks we've gotten a lot closer.. i guess that's what happens. funerals bring people together. now i'm going to see her at least 3-4 times a week. its a goal.
then the basketball game lastnight. rivalry team. st pete catholic, ha. well us st pete devils definitely dominated in the varsity. ex-boyfriend spencer hurt his eye in the jv game and i almost was in tears. actually i was.. (don't ask why, i guess it has to do with him being my ex). and then i wore my shirt i made last year that says "get well gates" on the back when kevin broke his leg or whatever and his mom came up to me and was like "for you wearing that, he better not break it tonight!" and what happened? yeah, well he broke his wrist. so i feel like crap for that. but he told me its okay and i just need to burn the shirt and all will be well. but for SPC.. yeah, they broke one of our bleacher's benches.. i guess they have to pay for that. and then after the game, people were throwing crap in each others cars and bricks were thrown in windows and crap. (wow.)
today ~ first day back at school. a lot of work to make up. ugh! i have some MONSTER (first time trying) and some redbull (love) but i just gave up a little bit ago and i'll work on some of this crap tmw or something. i don't feel like doing seven geometry assigments right now.
ok, going to bed. peace out.

Quick entry.
I was back at school today... and I haven't been since Thursday. People thought I died... it was quite funny actually. I have loads of crap to catch up on... Tests, quizzes, notes, classwork, homework, and ish. I was so stressed after school, I almost started crying on Melanie. I actually teared up and she told me she wasn't riding the bus and that's when I screamed... "I need junk food!" So I run to the machine and buy a Chocolate Fudge Poptart... so not worth the dollar and the 400 calories I must say BUT I needed it.
March for Life was great. Only two people held signs saying "Keep abortion legal" when more than 500,000 protestors were there. I also visited the Holocaust Museum... My youth director told us we'd have to hurry through the main exhibit... hurrying took like 30 minutes. If you look at everything and read it all and stuff, it takes 9 HOURS! 9! How crazy is that? NUTS.
Well, I've been home for two hours and haven't done ANY homework... so I'm going to start it off. And in an hour, I'm going to dinner with my grandma, great-aunt, brother and his girlfriend... to Cracker Barrel :]
<33; comment!
Leave love,
Lauren
*LLL* ~~> So taking that from Leah (My el-jay bud) for only this one and only entry. Haha!

Thursday ~
For once, riding the bus home... 1:50 phone call from my Mom. "Sorry babe, I couldn't pick you up... but they think your Grandpa won't last past tomorrow." (He's in a nursing home and has been for a couple weeks... liver cancer). Thank God my really good friend, Melanie, rides the bus with me. She knew he was doing bad and I just started crying on her... and she asked if "It happened" and I could just shake my head. It was a good 5 minutes of letting some pain out.. it just sucks she has the first bus stop and I have the last. So, both my sisters come home from college... I was going to go in late to school Friday anyways so I wouldn't have to take a couple tests. I go to bed at 9pm ; sisters get home at 10 pm.
Friday ~
3am "Lauren, wake up." "What time is it?" "3" "3pm? I've never slept in this late!!" "No 3am." "Alli, I don't have to go to school today.." "Grandpa died." ~~~> She asked me if I wanted to go see him before he was cremated... I didn't want to, but I went to the nursing home anyways... while my parents, sisters, brother and his girlfriend, my great-aunt and her husband (My grandma's sister.. they're from Kansas), and my grandma were in the room. It sucks... and I miss him so much. He's my step-grandpa but I was raised as him being my grandpa. It's the hardest on my Grandma.. she's blind and she's relied on him for several years and he's gone. She'll be moving in with us for a little while I believe. I ended up not going to school at all... And then I hung out at her place and watched Wheel of Fortune and Jeoporady with her.
Saturday ~
I had a soccer game and scored four points. Meanwhile, my brother who was working with my dad at the time, was rushed to a hospital in Tampa.. I didn't know why because we have like 5 here in St. Pete, but I find out, part of his ring finger on his right hand was cut off. I guess he had surgery.. honestly I don't know much even though this happened like eight hours ago.
Tomorrow ~
6:15 AM, going to the airport... flying to DC for the MARCH FOR LIFE.. I'm against abortion and basically it's this big protest thing... and then come back Monday night. So no school Monday and I'm guessing no school Tuesday... I don't know.
I'm going to go get things ready and pack and stuff... just felt like I needed to update.

i hope all everyone had a great holiday season.
i really do think the public schools in my county were the ONLY schools in the united states to have gone back to school on MONDAY.
my classes aren't too bad.. but my schedule is way different which threw off my locker schedule.. =\ [when i go to my locker after what class)
im sick though. and it sucks. i kinda got sick on friday night.. yes from staying home? i stayed home all weekend long.
i guess it's sinuses or something, but it's been bad and i want it to go away before my soccer tourny this weekend. it will be in the 40's. um frrrreeezing?
oh yah. i think my grandma might move in with us for a while. i don't know how long. she's moving into alli's old room and that's the room i was supposed to move into.
and then my room would be like the hang out room... we have a three bedroom house. and live on the water. i told my dad we should just move to a bigger house not on the water.
we don't use our boat and jetskis enough. i mean hello, we live in florida. i wish i knew how to drive those darn things because id be out there everyday of my life... possibly.
well, i guess that's all in my life right now.. ; anyone ever been to spain? if so, tell me about it. or if you know anything about it, tell me please :]

So, the day after my last entry... CHRISTMAS EVE. My sister, Bekah, and I were walking out the door to Starbucks and my uncle stops us and goes, "It won't be a fun Christmas Eve." And we're like "why not?" and he's like "I think your parents are calling 911 and your grandpa is going into the hospital." (NOTE: We open gifts up Christmas Eve night). So we left that alone, and left to Starbucks. My grandparents live in our same neighborhood.. saying that, so this next part makes sense.
We're driving through our 'hood when we see an ambulance with the sirens going off and decide to follow it. It ends at my grandparent's apartment complex and we watched them go into my grandparent's little condo. I started crying my eyes out, but we still went to Starbucks... I guess it was hard because I had been at their house 3 hours before watching him for my mom. Plus, Christmas day, my dad, sisters, and I were going to go to Miami.
He went in the hospital for 3 days, and is now in a nursing home. My dad, sisters, and I went to Pompano Beach and Miami. We got to go shopping. My grandpa (really step-grandpa but I've been with him my whole life) decided to go off chemo and radiation. His health is going back and forth... I don't know what will happen. Because my Grandma is blind, I'm thinking she'll move in with us, making it ALOTTT easier on my mom.
TONIGHT. New years eve... not doing anything... I don't really feel like it. I think I'm getting sick and school is back in session on Monday. Track here I come. I was supposed to run a mile every day, but out of my two weeks, I ran ONCE. Haha
But now I'm going out to dinner with my parents and grandma at Village Inn. It better be good.
