- Senior Year: has been super stressful but super fun. I love all my classes (AP European History, AP Environmental Science, Calculus, Chorale, and AP English), and I love cheering at Friday night football games. I'm not always loving the work load and the amount of stress that comes with preparing for college.
- Grey's Anatomy: is the best show ever. I just started season 3 this afternoon and it's embarrassing how many episodes I've watched in one sitting (
12?). Meredith is incredibly annoying, I love George to death, and I can't decide if I'm an Izzie or a Christina. Even though I absolutely hate blood, the show makes a small part of me want to be a surgeon. Saving lives seems pretty cool, even if it is just a TV show. - Homecoming: was this weekend and it was so much fun! I had an amazing time with friends eating dinner (white cheese fondue with pretzel bread, filet mignon, and creme brulee), dancing, and laughing at everything. The last one was the best one.
- Russian Literature: so for English class we had to read Notes from the Underground by Fyodor Dostoevsky, and it was really weird but I kind of loved it. I'm not really sure how to describe it. It's basically this guy bitching about everything, but at times he gets really deep and philosophical and it's amazing. I can relate.
- Hawaii and New York City: better look out because I'm on my way! I'm so excited and I've set countdowns to both trips on my phone. Over winter break, I'm going to Hawaii as a school trip (although non-academic) to see Pearl Harbor, go snorkeling, go to a Luau, hike a volcano, and do other amazing things! In March, my choir at school gets to sing at Carnegie Hall and see sights in NYC and I can't wait! I've always wanted to travel, and both of these trips will be my first times out of the Midwest! I'm paying for both of these trips, which means my bank account will be completely empty, but I know they'll be worth it.
Carpe Diem,
Brooke
