I'm not a morning person, and my alarm clock is loud because I always think quieter ones are part of my dream. Some of them just slowly wake me up, and some don't at all. My alarm clock is the only one that wakes me up almost right away. Its got a freaking speaker. Its soft setting (which I have it on) is super loud by normal standards.

My mom is the opposite of me (and basically the rest of our family), and actually hears things. So my alarm clock wakes her up. And she doesn't like when I set my alarm clock. My brother doesn't seem to know how to set his, it goes off when he's not even home. I think she thinks I have the same problem. I set mine up like 1/2 hour before I want to get up because, as I said before, I'm not a morning person, and I like to hit snooze a bazillion times. This bugs her too. So I'm going to have to actually wake up when my alarm goes off. I hate getting up so much... but once I'm up I'm fine. Try telling me that when I'm all snuggled in my sheets.

Anyway, I didn't NEED to get up this early. I have a 2 hour delay. I wanted to get up at the normal time for two reasons. 1) 2 hour delays feel like normal school days when I'm not up to appreciate not going to class. 2) If I shut my alarm off then fall asleep (which I tend to do) it won't matter as much as a normal day. Mostly reason number one though. I like having free time.

I'm sad that Christmas break is going to be over in just 3 short days... I'm sorry but I still hate school.

As I have been doing nothing (I am a bum, I know) I don't really have anything to write about. I do want to write something worth reading, though. All I've been doing lately is ranting. Ooooh I have a story...

My friend was giving me a ride back from tumbling, and we stopped for ice cream and her dad gave us a handful of change to pay for it. "So you just have a bag of Obama, then?" I asked. He laughed but my friend didn't get it until I explained it. "We should write a book of sayings, because we always come up with stupid sayings. Like Paige with 'like a butter on a corn'" she said. "Yeah, we'll be bigger than Mcdonalds!" "No, bigger than the people who eat Mcdonalds!" "We're putting that one in"

I have more stupid conversations. If I had told that story in person I would have been saying "and she was like... and then I was like..." but I figured that gets a bit more annoying when you're reading it than when you're hearing it.

...That still wasn't worth reading :P

I slept in too late today.

I only have one new year's resolution, and that's to get better at basketball. I'm a newb so I'm kind of not very good compared to my friends who have been playing it since kindergarten.

Anywhoo, I'm sure they'll make us write more at school, and even if its not really resolutions it'll probably be goals. Ugh. Since the beginning of the school year they've been asking us to write down goals. School related goals most of the time. I do fine in all of my classes. I get straight A's, and i don't give a rats ass if it's an A-, A, or A+. What the heck am I supposed to work on? Why would I make it a goal to pay more attention if I so obviously don't need to? I know that there's always room for improvement, but I've never stressed over school and I do fine, so why would I start? Why would I work just to improve that teeny weeny little bit?

Beh. To be honest, I'm kind of curious to see what this year will bring. Not worried that something bad will happen or excited that something good will happen... just curious.
