That's all folks!

Woooh! This day seemed LOOOOONG! Not only was it the last day of my freshman year...but it was the graduation for the QHHS seniors! (I saw McQ, Casey, Clark, and Andrew all lining up for a picture, so I couldn't help but whip out my phone to snap a pic) I had to say, with all the graduations i've ever been to...this was the least windiest one. It was a really nice ceremony, eventhough we had to play what felt like hours of Pomp and Circumstance.

I was having a good time when they called out all the names of the graduating seniors...and, instead of listening to all the names (besides band people, or people I knew) I was having a good time with Julia and Priscila. I probably havn't laughed that hard in a while. But come ending time, right before they finished the last diploma...Priscila cracked my fingers, and it made my eyes water.... That only set up the crying I got into when the Band seniors came around to say goodbye. =[ I didn't think I would cry because I only knew them for a year (or less) but it was sad to realize they won't be back....even though i'm sure some of them didn't care.

Well, I can now say i'm DONE being a freshman! I had a little dance today after school. =] This year had its good things...and of course the not so "wanted" things. My parents are in disbelief that i'm going to be a sophmore, and they are already getting nervous. (I wonder how they'll be come my graduation day. But thats 3 years off, I have time to prepare them) Well, I'm not sure what to blog about (of course) and I think i'll bring this post to a close.

I hope everyone has a wonderful summer. I'm going to be camping at the beach for the last two weeks of July, and i'm not participating in any summer school class, so I'm open for anyone who wants to hang out! Call me, or email me if you want =D Marcea_1123@yahoo.com

I wish all the seniors the best of luck in college, or wherever they're going to pursue their life.... Good luck, it was a pleasure to know all of you. =D Don't ever change (HAH, just kidding!) You should change, Speed gave a good speech about that. ;]

Well, Good Night everyone! I'll be up early tomorrow for.....SOCCER! hahah fun!
...But come Monday....oh the wonderful sleep i'll be getting!!!!! =D

Had I known How to Save a Life....

Wow! It's been a while since i've posted! I really can't believe it's already May! It feels like just yesterday that it was my first day of HIGHSCHOOL! Well, I'm pretty glad its over....i'm tired of being a freshman. I will miss some of the seniors, and I do wish the best for them in the future.

I've officially decided what my schedule is going to be next year....I've gotten so many different opinions on my list of classes! I'm not sure what is going to happen! I'm taking-


  • English 10/Pre-IB
  • Pre-IBAlgebra 2/Trig Honors
  • AP Chemistry
  • AP Art History <---I'm scared!
  • Symphonic Band
  • Spanish 2/ Pre- IB

I've heard it is quite a bit of work to be taking Chemistry and Algebra 2, but I think I can handle it. Oh, and since I joined Art History, it doesn't look like i'll have a life next year. It looks like a great class, and I definately want to take it before I have to worry about the real IB program in Junior and Senior year. Instead of Art History, I was going to take AP Euro...but because of my lack of interest in history[[European]] I decided to switch over.


Well, a few weeks ago in Spanish, we got to make salsa! (In honor of Cinco de mayo) Every year, Senora Rocca has an end of the year salsa making day. haha. We got to make it with a mocahete (sp?) and it was really fun! Being Mexican, I should know how to spell it...considering we have one. Although it wasn't the correct type of salsa you make with mocahetes...our salsa was pretty good. =D Thanks a lot to Cierra, Julia, Allison (Kemper), and Alyson (Santa) for making salsa in our cool group!

Wow, end of the year. Hard to believe. Only 4 more days left, and all of them being reduced days. I still need tons of signatures for my yearbook...the teachers have had a pretty strict rule on not having those out in class unfortunately. I'm really not sure what i'm going to blog about....so hmmmmmmmm.

This summer I'm some what looking forward to. I would have been taking a class at the college, but i'm going to camp at the beach for two weeks in Santa Barbara. Every summer my family goes, and we get to camp on the coastal bluff. It's really nice! And every time I come back waaaaaay tan! =] (I really need it!) I'm also planning to sleep a whole bunch...I don't care how much of my summer I waste....I LIKE SLEEP. Besides, I'm not sure how much i'll get with my schedule next year. I guess the rest of the time will be spent hanging out with my friends and finding busy stuff I can keep myself occupied with. Then of course...band camp...which I'm kinda looking forward to, and then not....

Friday was our final project for World History IB. Me, Kevin, Cierra, and Raemeon were to pick a country and do a report on it. We thought....what better country to do but Australia!? Being the cultural expert on this assignment, I had a rather good time putting together my portion of the powerpoint! And, for the extra credit, Cierra brought in a didgeridoo and some boomerangs. <--They were real! Cierra and I also painted ourselves like the Australian Aborigine...which was pretty awesome. =]
Well, I hope everyone has a wonderful last week of school! I'm pretty excited to see how the Band Banquet and Graduation goes. It's my first year, so I'm not sure how things are run! Have a wonderful Memorial Day, and a nice summer! Until Next Time....
