Ahh !! *rips out hair* Stress is killer, let me tell you. Oy! I have SO many things to do! I have to finish my final column for our school newspaper, The Maderan, plus look over my notes for Wednesday's AP Literature exam, which I am majorly worried about. However, I do feel confident in my writing, which is a first...lol. I believe I can do well on the exam and prove to myself that I can handle the pressures of a big exam, plus know within myself that I am going to succeed in college and in life itself.

Last Saturday was the MHS prom 2000, where the theme was "An Evening With The Stars". Myself, David (who was my date..I called up my buddy and asked him to go...), Rudy, Shawna, and Sara (yep, we have the same name!) all went and we had an absolute blast! We danced and partied, and took tons of pictures...hopefully I'll get some back soon and I will scan them and post them when I can.

Let's see...things have just been kinda rough lately...I am struggling to deal with internal emotions and dealing with my constant fight against myself to make myself more confident and more positive. then, when I finally get my foot on another higher rung of the ladder, my foot slips and falls. It's like I keep slipping on a darn banana peel! I swear! But lucky for me, there's been people who've been listening to my troubles for awhile now...she will be referred to as Bug in here, to protect her privacy, but she and Ang have been there for me for a long time now and I am so grateful for that.

But anyways...that's the deal right now, I graduate from MHS in about 3 weeks, and I am SO looking forward to it!

Much love to everyone ! *smile*

Bye Bye Bye! =*)
