Procrastination to the extreme...

So I really should be working on my genocide english paper. But guess what? I have the flu so that's pretty pointless at the moment. My sinuses and brain refuse to work together  and that's totally fine with me. So guess what I get to do instead? I finally am updating a blog that I've been wanting to write in for about a year now. Yes, that's kind of sad. Oh well.

Anyway.  I actually have a lot of plans for this summer. I want to get a job so I can go spend the money and beg for more from my parents. Yay. But I really do plan on getting a job and being 15 in a small town, there are not very many places that hire people my age. But apparently, Dairy Queen will. I've got an application, recommendations thingamajigger, and a luff of ice cream. Hopefully, I will get hired. Keep those fingers crossed!

Besides work, I'm going to be taking driving classes this May. The streets of my small town will never be safe again. Old folks crossing the streets, betta watch out. I'm actually really excited for this. A lot of people always say it's boring but I dunno. The class part will probably be boring but the behind the wheel stuff is going to be pret-ty darn awesome.

So let's see, we've got job, driving school, um...oh yes! I'm also taking this independent study class for my local nature center. It sounds like a ton of fun but I haven't gotten a reply email back yet.On another nerdtastic topic, also do a bit of programming. I'm in YCTP which stands for youth computer training program. I learn how to make pretty websites and how to make them work. We're going to Philadelphia this summer for the national conference which our chapter has taken 1st place for like four years. Fun stuff, fun stuff.

Also, in February of this year, I wanted to see if I could read 120 books that I've never read before. That means about 10 books a month. It's actually harder than I thought it would be. So far, I've read 27 book. That's pretty good, but I'm behind by about 13 books. The widget below is what I've read so far if you want to check that out.
