To Be Or Not To Be-- ... Is that a question?

So as of lately I had to memorize the TO BE OR NOT TO BE speach from Shakespeares "Hamlet". It went well.. except when I was reciting it to my teacher my brain forgot every word that started wtih the letter "C"  


Maybe I will just have to live with a B.

In other news we are babysitting a pug this week named Luna that lives in our neighborhood. She is naughty and she is mean to my pug Owen. That alright though becuase she is so adorable.    I have to go to my AP Literature class and only have a  couple more minutes to write.   Lately there is nothing to write about.

Exept this:

TODAY IS THE 5th WEEK SINCE I HAVE GOTTEN SURGERY>>>  AND WE ALL KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS>>> NOTHING>

Yay.

Sincerely Sierra

where you stand

So I have now given up on wearing my sling.. Even though I suppossedly am suppossed to wear it for  a couple more days. Zach and Nick say I can drive now and I am starting therapy.
Things are kinda looking up. Kinda.
I didn't do any homework all weekend.    I didn't really do anything actually.  I decided a couple of things though. I AM FINISHING MY PORTFOLIO I"M GONNA FLY THIS WEEK!!! Also on the Things to Do List
1. Finish Portfolio
2. Practice Piano for Church and for Miss Hurricane
3. Finish Alumni Scholarship
4. Homework?

I now know I am to busy for my own good.  I am reading Jane Eyre and I LOVE IT!!! Out of all the classical reads I have read this is by far the BEST. I thought about book blogging it but I am too lazy.Also, I am going to dye my hair blond. or bleach it.. or whatever you have to do to get auburn hair blonde. I hope it's a good idea... I really do.

Well this is about the lamest post ever.

happy aniversary to me and you there on the right

It has been 4 weeks since I got my surgery, and that means something. No it doesnt. It doesn't mean anything I like anyway. Here are the things that it means:
1. You still have to wear a sling for one more week
2. It has only been 4 weeks since surgery.. its gonna have to feel like YEARS till school is out.

I have never been an optimist.

welcome to drugs anomynous! our first topic: fractions.

Well on tuesday I started my Math 1010 class. Just the story on how I ended up in Math 1010 would be a good post... but.... in short   I have to take it... and the ACT ruins my life. On walking into my first college class that was actually at a college I had expectations that weren't quite fufilled. In fact... no expectation was filled. My class was a class full of middle aged, drug adicts,  the slums of my town.  And as nine of the 45 of us was called randomly to introduce us to the class I found I was in the nine. As I awaited my turn at the end of the line I silently listened to the stories of the people at my side.

"I have stopped smoking for 18 days and I have been clean from meth for 3months. I just want my 8 children back." lady with purple hair exclaims.
(class claps)

"I don't really get anything... I just want to change my life around ... and ...um... stop partying. I haven't had a drink for 12 days." lady who is hungover.
(class claps)

"Uh, I want to become a police officer... kinda.  So yeah. Math."   stupid big guy with tattoos.
(class sits in silence)

"I am going to college again becuase I blew out my knee in the marines and I am in a wheelchair(obviously since we are all looking at you...and you are indeed in a wheelchair) I just want to play baseball with my sons again."  says guy with a baseball cap and a wheelchair.
(class sits in agitation as they try and figure out why being in a wheelchair has anything to do with math and not physical therapy.)

"I sometimes speak in an irish accent." the girl with the haircut.
(........)
       This would be where I am suppossed to speak.... I am next to the girl with the hair cut.. But I find myself having a hard time coming up with.. well something to say that is... well nevermind
"Hi. My name is Sierra. I... well I am in high school .. a senior.   Um.. i took this class becuase I didn't understand AP Calculus... which is alright with me.. becuase that's hard. I plan on going to college.. and.. thats fun."  says normal preppy girl that has never tried dope.
(class stares with bored faces)

I exhaled. Becuase that humiliation was over. But I was wrong.
"What happened to your arm?" says math teacher with cerebral palsy.
"I .. well I got shoulder surgery."
And to my suprise the girl with the hair cut says in an irish accent  "Oh! Well then you can give me your violin!!"
    I am not gonna lie.. i must have looked super confused. Here are the thoughts that ran through my mind at this time.
1. Who the Hell(Sorry) are you?!
2. How the Hell(Sorry) did you know that I play the violin?
3. There's no way in Hell(Sorry) I am giving you my violin!!

After these thoughts flew acrossed my mind a memory was triggered.. This girl had been in my orchestra class two years ago.. She wasn't so.. irish...then though. And she had hair.      So here is what spilled out of my mouth in a sort of embarassed quiet remark.
" I don't want to give you my violin."

(The whole class is stunned in an awkward silence.)    So I smile.

boots and a pair of oxfords

So, my day today.... it went a little bit like this.
MORNING: Woke up at 7...then wined until 7:10 then my mommy dressed me (thanks to my shoulder surgery) and did my hair. My sister left for school and I just sorta relaxed until 9 30 and looked at a magazine. My plan was to do homework..NOT! So after looking in this magazine I decided that I might spend my christmas money on boots and a pair of oxfords.(which are shoes).

SCHOOL: At school I read some Jane Eyre in the library before I headed off to class. I did nothing for an hour in orchestra becuase I cant play the violin (thanks to my shoulder surgery). At lunch I ate a corndog at Jenna's and sat in the back of a border-hopping vehicle. In government I learned about art and in physics I put a piece of plastic in a water bottle. My day was SO fascinating.

EARLY AFTERNOON: After school I squished in with all the people from my class and looked at the ceiling and said CHEESE! ... Yep.  Then I walked home.. the weather is beautiful today by the way...and tried to fix my computer for forty minutes. Then I ate some oreos and cheese.. And now I am here writing on my blog.

FOR TONIGHT?: If I can finish enough homework and my ambassadors portfolio I might head up to a basketball game in the town next to mine. Woo freaking Hoo.

So there is the basically boring life of a teenager who can't drive (thanks to shoulder surgery). And I don't know why I typed all this but whatever. it does have great insight.

Choosing THE Crown

Today it was my job to choose the perfect crown for the next girl that will take my place in the royalty. I have finally decided on one which I think is pretty and I hope the next girl thinks it is pretty as well.   It's really hard and it took me a whole hour. But that's alright.   Whatever.  I only have like 90 million other things to do.

Also in news,, my college math class starts today which SUCKS! so now with all of the things that I have to do I have to add that to my list and not get home until 6 every tuesday and thursday which again.. sucks.  

So I was looking into that little girls eyes and I was wondering why God put her in the situation he did.   When she was born I remember looking into those deep brown eyes and seeing how they looked so black. When she looked into my eyes I know that she knew me. I love her.   Why does she have it so hard?

Long Live

YES!!! It is finally time! I am now in the last semester of all of my grade school! Sadly, thought, I do not see the light at the end of this tunnel. I might not either.. until the diploma is in my hands.

I made my new years res. Haha. It will be really interesting to see if I can do it. I made alot of them.. which is probably not the best idea but we will see what happens.. right?

Well the title of this post is Long Live which is the title of my favorite song right now. It's by T Swift.. .. of course. Down here in my small town we love Taylor. A little to much maybe. I also finished the Hunger Game trilogy finally.  I would have finished it sooner if I could of . But for some reason I decided to take AP Literature and I don't have time to read anything else buy Shakespeare and Thomas Hardy. Which sucks. And I used to like poetry and reading... until this class. Now..I hate it. Which is sad. Hopefully after I finish this class my love for literature will be rekindled.

Well I better head to school... becuase that's the logical thing to do.
