I am very tired right now. I tried to do my (very late) physics homework, but it was horrifically confusing. I see now why I detest physics so much: I can't really do it. But I figure I have the freedom to hate what I can't do: physics, sports, pop riveting. Though I did manage to put in two of four pop rivets all by myself this morning. I was beyond stoked. I did a little happy dance and everything. My weak hands didn't hold me back -- and I didn't even break a nail. :o)
We had registration in the library this morning, which took up all of first period. I looked at the sheet Mr. Creveling gave us, and managed to sort out my schedule so that I don't have to take an AP science class next year. (YES! Fate
is kind sometimes.) On the other hand, I will be taking Adkins next year. I get the feeling that I'm leading myself into a bad situation, but from what I've heard and seen this year, it'll whip me into shape for college (if it doesn't kill me first). For some odd reason, we're taking a University of Maryland math placement test tomorrow in trig. It seems logical in theory, but I'm still wary.
Speaking of the University of Maryland, there's another invitational tournament at College Park on Sunday. I was on the A team last time; we went 3-2. I want us to do better this time. And I'm going to the SAT Workshop thingy at Flowers on Saturday, which means I won't get to sleep in at
all this weekend. Grr. Sleep rocks. Staying up late because I'll be able to sleep in anyway rocks even more.
Speaking of sleep, I should go do that soon. Yep. To end, a quiz.
The Color Quiz
Your Existing Situation: Having difficulty in standing up to the demands imposed on her. Finds a great effort is involved and wishes to have the situation eased.
Your Stress Sources: Wants to overcome a feeling of emptiness and to bridge the gap which she feels separates herself from others. Anxious to experience life in all its aspects, to explore all its possibilities, and to live it to the fullest. She therefore resents any restriction or limitation being imposed on her and insists on being free and unhampered.
Your Restrained Characteristics: Has high emotional demands and is willing to involve herself in a close relationship, but not with any great depth of feeling. Feels that she is receiving less than her share and that there is no one on who she can rely for sympathy and understanding. Pent-up emotions make her quick to take offense, but she realizes that she has to make the best of things as they are.
Your Desired Objective: Seeks success, stimulation, and a life full of experience. Wants to develop freely and to shake off the shackles of self-doubt, to win, and to live intensely. Likes contacts with others and is enthusiastic by nature. Receptive to anything new, modern, or intriguing; has many interests and wants to expand her fields of activity. Optimistic about the future.
Your Actual Problems: Fights against restriction or limitation, and insists on developing freely as a result of her own efforts. The fear that she might be prevented from achieving the things she wants leads her to play her part with an urgent and hectic intensity.
