Hello again! It's been such a long time since I've written -_-
I'm sorry! I'm so horrible at this.
So anyhow. Today I went to the library and picked up all seven of my holds. Added to the five books I now have at home to read, that's quite a bit of time. But if you're reading this Beh, don't worry--your book takes priority :)
Just updating on all the awful tests I'm taking: I have my SAT subject test this Saturday and my ACT the Saturday after that. UGH. Not to mention that I'm totally unprepared for the US history subject test--I have done no studying other than taking the class this year, so I have zero confidence in my knowledge. Taking practice tests totally reinforces that, because seriously, I have no idea what I'm doing.
I got two letters from The Netherlands this week, which is freaking amazing. I promise I'm going to write back as soon as I can, but I'm seriously busy right now. In two and a half weeks, school will let out and I'll finally be able to write back at a decent pace :)
I also finally sent a mysterious book to Beh--hopefully she likes it, although it is rather strange, so I don't blame her if she doesn't.
I ought to go, I'll try and blog again eventually :)

Oh My Gosh...
I just found the letters from my Spanish pen pal from when I was in the fourth grade. I thought I lost those letters.
He only sent me three, then never again.
I still have the earrings he sent me. And now I have his letters, too.

Day of Silence
This friday is the Day of Silence. It is a "national youth-run effort using silence to protest the actual silencing of LGBT people due to harassment, bias and abuse in schools," and our school participates in it every year. I've definitely been participating for as long as I've known about it.
I'm kind of pumped for it. In the past, I've brought whiteboards to help communicate, though I think I might actually go for some hardcore silence this year.
Also, next week I'm going to donate blood! I've never donated before; hopefully there's nothing wrong with me preventing me from doing so (I'm more afraid of being turned down for donating than I am of the actual needle.) You have to be at least 17, and none of my friends are either old enough or willing to... I can't understand why you wouldn't want to, though!
Plus, I have type O blood (though I'm not sure if it's positive or negative!), making me a universal donor. I want to help the best I can!
What makes me really angry, though, is that when I got my driver's license, my mum didn't check the donor box. It wasn't her decision to make--I would rather be helping others than taking my organs with me to rot.
Yay activism!

Wall Art! :D
I put this up on the wall :D It was approved by the vice principal, so it wasn't even against the rules.
Also, now there seem to be tons of cute posters appearing around for no particular reason. For example, high five posters with giant hands to slap while walking by. I don't have anything to do with these--they just make me happy :)

EEEP!
Today I came home and there was a fat package from Poland! EEP!
I sent Ada poptarts a couple weeks ago, since she had never eaten them before, as they don't sell them in Poland. Well today I got a giant envelope full of her favorite sweets!

Ahh, I was so excited opening it! They're so foreign and amazing!
Plus, the outside of the envelope had little Super Mario stickers :3
She also sent me pictures from her hometown, of her family and pets, as well as a letter on nyan cat paper :D
Yay!
