I don't know whether to laugh or cry

My backpack weighed fifteen pounds when I got home from school today.

And usually, backpack weight increases over the year as my backpack fills with old stuff I don't know what to do with. And I didn't have to schlep my math text home today, either. My estimate: End of the year, on a day I don't need my math textbook: 25 pounds. Math day: 30 pounds (or I might just carry the textbook separately).

In other news, some of my classes are very fun this year (Orchestra, German, Computer Science), and some are almost as fun as very fun (Physics and Math (especially because my precalc teacher has a Smartboard)). History and English aren't too bad, either. I just like math and science and German and music more.

I've got homework. Bye.

Once again, the spell checker is broken. Plleaze ekkscus anny mizspelinges.

Happy Dance!

Today is a day of deliveries. Earlier, my mom's laptop charger stopped working after a few years, so my dad ordered a couple of new ones. So we had to share my charger (i.e. steal it from the other person when one's laptop is going on 30% battery power or less). The new chargers came in, so now we have my mom's charger (new), mine (older), and a backup. Finally!

And recently, I ordered my first pair of Birkenstocks. From my parents, I have inherited/been blessed with/been cursed with wide, flat feet. Oh man, do I need arch supports as I grow up. Unfortunately, as I have just started school and walking around the school building with a full and heavy backpack, my knees and feet have hurt. Not seriously yet, but they hurt. But my Birkenstocks just arrived! So when I break my Birks in, I'll probably wear them to school. A lot. And for anyone who's curious, I got a size 36 Regular in Florida, color Cocoa Nuebuck. (Or however you spell that particular color of Birk.) With a soft footbed. Which is softer than a normal one, by the way.

I probably should take advantage of my light workload tonight and practice my violin and shower in the hopes of getting eight hours of sleep. So… I might write again later. Not today. Bye.

How many times does the spell checker have to break? Apparently one more. Sorry for any misspellings. I don't feel like pasting this into a word processor to check it. I'm tired.

School…

School just started on the 5th. I'm tired and already behind on sleep, but thankfully, I seem to have interesting and fun teachers this year, so it shouldn't be too bad. We'll see.

Anyway, if I could have gotten my homework done earlier, I could watch Mythbusters at 9 PM. Oh well. I'll live. Cool show, though. And educational.

I'm gonna go. More updates are pending…when I feel like it. And have time. Those don't happen often at the same time.
