Geez!

Well, it has been a loooong time and i am not able to really stay on long for ringt now so I will make this as quick as I can! I have been uber busy lately with school and clubs and stuff. So anyway, all my classes are going pretty good and it is so great to see all of my friends again, except we all don't get to see David as often as we would like to because he is going to a diffrend school, so we all miss him so much!!

Laterz! Katherine

SORRY!!!!!

Hey ALL!!!!
So sorry that I haven't written anything in a long, long time!!!! I left for Friendly Pines Camp ( www.FriendlyPines.com ) on July 1st and came back on the July 14th. I had so much fun at FPC this year. Unfortunately, this year was my last year being able to go to FPC as a (somewhat) camper. The next time I can go will be in 2 years as a Jr. Counselor.

Also, I just got back from Sierra Service Project ( www.SierraServiceProject.org ) on Monday. SSP was really fun this year. My church went to the urban L.A. site this year and we all painted houses. After SSP, my church goes on a fun trip for a few days, sort of like a reward for all the hard work we did. This year, we went to Universal Studios Hollywood as our fun trip. This was my first time going to Universal Studios and the group I was in went to Bubba Gump's Shrimp Co. for lunch (sooooooooooooo good!!!).

Well, the last thing that I have to say for right now is that I got a facebook.com account thingie!!! So if you have a facebook thing, look for Katherine Swanson!!! I don't know if there are a lot of Katherine Swansons, so 2 groups that I am in is Tucson, AZ and Mountain View High School...so ADD ME!!!

Always, Katherine

Camp!

Hi All!
So sorry I haven't been writing lately, but I have been buisy. So far this summer, I have been helping my grandma watch my little cousins. Tomorrow/Almost today, my friend Alida will be coming to stay with my family for a day and then on July 1st, my parents will be taking Alida and me to Friendly Pines Camp in Prescott, AZ so I will be at camp for 2 weeks.

Well, I have to go,

I also might get to see my cousin and his new baby (whom I haven't met yet...her name is Linda after her Grandma!) tomorrow also because they will be coming down to Tucson from Phoenix...so that will be lots of fun!

Well I have to go, Laterz!, Katherine

YYaay!

Well, SCHOOL IS FINALLY OUT FOR SUMMER VACATION!!! I am so happy! Also, my 16th birthday is on the 31st and I can get my Driver's License on June 4th! Hopefully I can find a job soon so I can get a car and not have to bum a ride from a friend or one of my parents all summer long!

Well, that is all I had to say for right now, have a good weekend!

Laterz, Katherine

Finals...yay *sigh*

Well, finals start on Tuesday...great fun. I am sad though that school is almost over, next year I will in 11th grade and be a Junior, so that means only 2 more years until I have to go out into the big, wide world. Finals start on Tuesday and go through to Thursday, so 3 days of tests! TORTURE!!! Here is my terrible finals schedule:

Tuesday: French and Composition (English)

Wednesday: Biology and Geometry
Thursday: Health/Driver's Education and World Studies

I am also sad that school is almost over because David (one of my crazy friends) is leaving us. He isn't moving or anything, but he won't be going to MVHS next year, he will be going to Mountain Rose *crycry* I did get a cute picture with him yesterday though! So that makes me happy, and all of my friends will be getting together over the summer, so I'm looking forward to that.

Laterz and God Bless, Katherine

'Sup?

Hi all...soooooooo sorry I haven't been on in a long time...but I have been working on a project on equine diseases for the past 2 weeks and then I had to put together a presentation (I chose to do my presentation in the form of a short DVD thingie) so that was a lot of fun...NOT!
Anyways...my 16th birthday is the last day of this month and I am having a small party with a bunch of close friends so that will be a whole bunch of squee (FUN)! Also, on June 4th, I can get my driver's license...so all of you better stay off the road if you know what is good for the staying togetherness of your body!...jkjkjk!
Also...one of my friends is over right now...so we are having fun! We will be making a random 'music video' of a song that we don't know what song we will do yet...but we will be figuring that out tonight hopefully so we can start doing it tomorrow...so i will be putting it on youtube.com under GrabeelGirl9170 when it is done, but i will tell all y'all when it is up and done with a link! And hopefully there will be some fun bloopers along with the video...YYAAAYYY!

Oh (Somewhat) Happy Day!

Hi all! I hope everyone had a fun Easter! And for those of you who just had their spring break, I hope you all had fun! Today was my first day back at school from spring break, and believe me, waking up at 5:30am after waking up whenever you feel like it for a week is tough!

Well, today was OK though, until I found out that on Wednesday and Thursday all the Sophomores, and Juniors and Seniors who didn't pass the first time, have to take the AIMS test. Basically, if you don't have the AIMS test because I think it is called something different for each state, if you don't pass the AIMS test, you don't Graduate from High School, and if you exceed the first time you take it, you get a scholarship to any in-state collage (and I am hoping for Northern Arizona University or University of Arizona)!

Well, that is all I have time for now,
Laterz! Katherine

hi all!

I know I haven't really been writing anything lately, but I have a lot going on right now, especially in Composition! Right now, we are working on a 5 page essay, but we haven't been told what format to use, so I don't know if we are doing comparison or what, so I can't really start writing it yet!
Well, this week is officially awesome! I am out of school for 1 week for spring break, so I will be going to go to Phoenix to stay with my Grandparents until Easter Sunday.
So, when you all have any time at all and able to go to the movies, you should see Premonition with Sandra Bullock in it. It is really good!
Laterz! Katherine

Hi All!

Yep, I am somewhat bored again. YAY! IT'S FINALLY FRIDAY! As you can see, I like Fridays. At the moment, I am watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. (I personally think Johnny Depp was the perfect person to choose to play Willy Wonka, it is funny! ::Giggle, giggle::)
Later today, I will be putting more videos onto my youtube account thing. Most of them are of friends and other people at school. There is also some videos that I made while Estelle was here, some one of them I made for her to for when she first arrived and had enough time, she could watch it and sort of get to know who some of my friends are. Other videos I made when I was bored and Estelle was at the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley.
Laterz!
Katherine

Bored!

I am bored . . . there is nothing to do . . . I have already been playing the piano for about 1 hour, and I had no idea what to do, so I went on the internet, an no one was online to talk to! I am also watching T.V. all that is good that is on is Curious George (even though it is a really good movie!) So I am hoping (hint hint COURTNEY) that someone will get online soon to talk to!

Katherine

MOVIES!

Hi all,
OK, some of you might not really like going to the movies with your parents very often, but I like to sometimes. But my parental units and I went to the movies last Saturday to see Wild Hoggs . . . and if you haven't already seen it . . . get off the computer NOW and go see it!!! You will DIE of laughter!
I am also still keeping in touch with Estelle (the french student who stayed with me for 2 weeks). So it is a lot of fun talking to her.
Well that is all I have time to write at the moment, so bye!
Katherine

What up?

Hey All,
OK, so my blog on my web site was taking up a lot of space, just like my videos were, so I will now be 'blogging' here.
So, just in case you have no idea what was on other posts I did, I am currently 15 years old and will be turning 16 on May 31st. I got my drivers permit on January 4th, so I will be able to get my license on June 4th . . . yay! I am taking my 2nd year of French at my high school and recently I had a French student stay with me for 2 weeks, but I will talk about that is a second. I am, unfortunately, an only child, so I get lonely sometimes, but that is OK. I have a youtube.com account under GrabeelGirl9170 so go check that out for more videos because I don't put all of them on my web site.
OK, so now to tell you about Estelle, the French student who stayed with me for 2 weeks. If you check out my pictures on freewebs.com/poodleofpoodles you can see that Estelle and I look a lot alike! She arrived in the U.S. on February 10th. My parents couldn't schedule another time for us to go to Kartchner Caverns, so we went the day after Estelle arrived. (She seemed to like the Caverns, so that is good.) Then on the 14th all of the French students that came here went to the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley for 3 days. When she got back, we took her to the Desert Museum, the Rodeo Day Parade, and we watched the rodeo for about 2 houres. After Estelle left, it was very lonely because I was so used to her being around, but now I am used to the quietness that is my life.
I will try to blog more often now, so check often! ;)
Laterz! Katherine
