A hand written blog (4/9/09)

So im laying in bed watching the Family Stone while trying to hand write this blog, doesn't hard does it? Except im attempting to write this in the dark! Yeah i know, smart right?
So im pretending that your all asking me why im hand writting it? Well i have been without internet connection since midday! Actually to tell you the truth it's not so bad but just a pain when you want to blog!

Anyway today i had my driving lesson with Chris which went well. He took me downtown, into the heart of Phoenix, where he took me past the courthouse (where i had my dury duty) and where they have all the one-way streets!! It was alright, made quite a few left hand turns and he had to explain what he meant when he said "can you turn left on red here?", cos i had no freaking clue! I know now that its turning from a one-way to a one-way. After going around in circles we, and by 'we' i mean me, drove out to the airport. All in all it was a sucessful lesson!

Tonight we had the family party where we celebrate the August/Sept/Oct birthdays. It was alright except it being boring =) LOL. I know, i know its family but eh what can i say? Being around grandparents puts me on edge. But thats a story for another time, and i'll make a note of it so i wont forget.

Tomorrow night Phyllis is having a party (grown up party.. and yes it does include me!). Its gonna be soo much FUN! Cos i talked Shannon and John into buying me some white wine to bring =D LOL i love her and John they are such fun and wonderful people.
Dad asked Chris, my driving instructor, if he wanted to come. He said he'll try and make it, he's busy until 7. I hope he doesn't come cos i dunno- i mean he is cute but i'm not really attracted to him.

So i finished my 2nd week of the Fall semester! My classes are alright, some are better than others! For example i love English and Sociology, but thats mainly for my new friends in there! I have Katy in English who is absolutly FREAKING awesome!!! I love her already! **Hey Katy if your reading this =)** She said she wants to take me up to NAU which would be epic! I sit next to Jess in Sociology and she is soo cool! She's from Cali and its her first semester at PV. My other 2 classes, Juvenile Justice Procedures and MacroEconomics are eh so-so. Nothing so great though i sit next to Raechael in Macro and she's cool. Kinda haven't made any friend in my justice class which is lame but whatevs. Also in English i have a friend from one of my Spring semester classes, Casey was with me in CPD. It was a shock to see him walk in but whenever we talked we got along.
On a different note im afraid to inform you that my classes have not many, if any (LOL Kiwis will get that!) cute guys! I have one in my sociology class who i do think is cute! Well i have one in each of my classes but ONLY one! Grr haha.
**I have a story about the guy in my Soc class but i'll share that in another post**

Last night i watched Forgetting Sarah Marshall for the first time and i LOVED it! I love Kristen Bell, i think she is absolutly gorgeous, and Russell Brand is hilarious!

Well i think thats long enough and my hand is starting to cramp writing this

My Mid-Week Update

HELLO!

Well first off i had a mini freak out this morning cos i was having problems confirming my classes/paying for them- but its ok all sorted out now.
Not i my politcal science anymore, im now in Macroeconomics Preference. Now doesnt that sound sooo much better!! haha NOT! but oh well im just gonna have to deal.

Anyway i had my driving lesson today with my instructor Chris. He was cute! Haha. It wasnt scary at all!! I was nervous but he put me at ease. I would tell you were we went but i cant really remember. I did go on the freeway for awhile. But Chris said that he was pleasently surprised at how well i drove and that i was a natural at handling the car! WOOHOO haha. Anyway that was about all of it. We drove for 2hrs.

Also i bought Bones season 1 on dvd yesterday and im already watching it! Love that show. Tomorrow im going shopping with Jen after she finishes her classes at high school. Have to stop by the college to sort out these money issues and then want to go to the post office to post mums box FINALLY! Have been meaning to post her bday present cd since i got back from Las Vegas, and ive had her box packed for a few weeks.

On Sunday we had the family over, minus my cousin Jason who was working, for dinner which was nice. After we finished Jen and I headed out to go bowling with her boyfriend Cole. It was such a fun night!
Here are the scores, well just mine and Jens cos i dont remember Cole's.
Game 1: Jen won 106 - 103
Game 2: I won! 125 - 120
Game 3: Jen won 130 - 116
Game 4: Cole won!! Dont remember the scores for this game, but i know Jenny let him win

=) thats it for my mid-week post!
Though i will add that *saying this sarcasticlly* i am sooo looking forward to next week when classes start up

My Sanity Pulse has Flatlined

Nice blog title right? I have to admit that i didn't come up with it, i have to give credit to Lindsay who tweeted that to me after he found out what i had just signed up for for my Fall classes!

Okay so seeing as i already mentioned it above here's what my Fall semester looks like...

Monday/Wednesday

AJS212 (Administration of Justice)- Juvenile Justice Procedures

*POS110 (Political Science)- American National Government

*-This is what brought on Lindsay's tweet "I just checked @SammyClaire's sanity pulse... OMG she's flatlining!"*

Tuesday/Thursday

SOC101 (Sociology)- Introduction to Sociology

ENG102 (English)- FirstYear Composition

So there yah go! Comment below if you agree with Lindsay =)

I realized i haven't blogged for 2weeks and i know i have a lot to share. So i shall start from where i left off which was here.

I didn't see the new Ice Age, i went with Dad and Nick to see Transformers 2 which i am soo thankful that i did! Because i LOVED it =) They left it open for a 3rd one which i really hope they intend to make!

I can't remember what happened over the weekend so im guessing it wasn't much. Last weekend i had lunch with Jen at Chile's which was yummy before heading over to Matt and Kelsey's house-warming party (actually not sure if it was the weekend just past or the one after i saw Transformers?)

Okay so i'll move onto this past week! On Thursday 30th July i went shopping with Kelsey and bought Gossip Girl season 1! And on a side note i have already finished it, LOVED it =)

Thursday night i stayed out at the mall and saw The Orphan with Kayce. I was freaking out a lot before i even was at the theatre! But i stuck it out and im glad i did because it wasn't as scary as i thought it would be! But man that little girl was f**king creepy/insane! I mean look at her!

On Saturday i had my driving school class! i wasn't learning to drive before you ask! It was just the class so i could get my permit... Which i did!!! =) YAY! So im legal to start learning to drive! Hehe. Dad and i went to the DMV so i could get my permit (license). That's the certificate they gave us when we finished the class and passed.

This past week has been so busy with school seeing as it was the FINAL week for Philosophy! As im writing this i have finished with philosophy forever! =) I really don't think i will take it again. If i ever tweet or blog that i do intend to take it please knock some sense into me! Promise?

I'm really scared as to what score i'll get on today's final test =S It was really hard, hopefully i got a C. Over the 4 tests i have gotten..

Test 1- F

Test 2- C

Test 3- B

Test 4- ? This was the one i had today

Its Thursday night! Going out for dinner and drinks with Phyllis, dad, and Mike (their best friend). Dad is being the sober driver! Grandma is coming to babysit =) Life is good. Haha.

Hmm what else do i need to share? This is the point where i know i need to stop writing because i can't remember anything else =) No doubt i'll blog again later tonight or tomorrow

Have a great Thursday or Friday in NZ and have a great weekend if i don't talk to you before then =)

XxX
