I'm 17, a Junior, and proud of it!

I'm back! Life kidnapped me and just now released me to resume my normal activities.

Besides getting sick over the weekend, not too much exciting is happening. That's my problem! Just about every person I know is graduating this year. I'm glad for them, but since I look older than what I am (or so I'm told), everyone is puzzled when I tell them I'm "only" a Junior, this year. They usually follow that by asking how many grades I've been held back. Good grief! The nerve! Even in my place of refuge--my bedroom-- while listening to the radio, the DJ was like, "I remember back in August of '89 when I was holding my newborn niece in my arms, and now she's a Freshman in college..." AHHHH! They won't stop! It's like I'm the only 17-year-old Junior in the world. (And I haven't been held back any grades!) Having said this, I'm proud to announce that I AM 17-years-old, and I AM graduating in 2008. Thank you!!! Your support is overwhelming.

Stepping down from my soap-box, it's been a pretty good week. School is almost finished, and my summer is almost here! Before I enjoy Texas' 110-degree summer weather, I have to take the SAT twice. :-( Talk about a bummer. haha

I hope the rest of the week brings you much happiness.
