It's been about 2 weeks since my last mark here on blogspot. Just take a look at the pages baring the recent weeks in my pretty floral planner, and you'll understand why. Teachers are dropping homework daily that they either 1) honestly grade or 2) place the information on tests. Extra-curriculars like National Honor Society and DECA are jump starting at similar dates and times. School now gets the big ol' stamps of urgency and priority.
To escape the never-ending movement of school events I've been taking full advantage of my afternoons with a car. Before Monday night band practices, I always grab some lunch or do an hour of window shopping. I treat myself to tapioca or all-fruit smoothies on hot days.
But lately, the days haven't been so hot since Hurricane Ike's assault. (I still treat myself with cold green tea ice cream nevertheless.)
My house faced some pretty serious damage when Ike hit, but it's nothing life threatening. We had a number of sporadic leaks that led to saturated carpeting and a moist ceiling. Two days after the hurricane, the ceiling caved in and collapsed three times in our guest room. Pictures of the destruction in that room can be viewed via Facebook and Myspace.
The school also faced some damage so class has been dismissed temporarily. It feels like summer again. I'm happy to be able to submerge myself in extended hours of sleep and long sessions of playing video games. I've also been killing time by having fun with my camera.
Speaking of cameras. You can now find me on Flickr. Honest to God, I am no photographer but I can always try. I like a lot of my pictures, how about you?
