Spring Break!!!!!!!!

Once again, I've been lazy on my posting job. I'm really sorry. I know I should be doing it more. I've been having some issues with my classes though, and everyone has been preparing us for the AP tests, so I've been INSANELY busy. But, updates on my life:
I finally got my passport. I almost didn't, but was lucky enough to have looked through the rules before I went. When you get your passport, if your under 16, both of your parents have to sign a permission form. Once your 16, then one of your parents have to sign. Well, the person that I was getting my passport from was trying to tell us that I had to have both of my parents sign. My dad kind of has issues with going out of the house, and everything has to be signed infront of this person. There was no way I was going to be able to get my passport if I had to get dad to sign. Luckily, there was another person there that said that I only had to have mom sign it, so crisis averted.

I decided I am going to take a chemistry class at Clark, which is the local community college. Through the school, I can go without having to pay for any of my classes. I took the test, and passed everything, although I only barely passed the basic algebra. Sad, since I'm in Calculus. Algebra was the thing I took the longest on and did the worst on out of all four tests. I can now go into almost any of the classes they want. I, however, want to take a chemistry lab, because I don't want to take any of the classes they have left at school, but I still want another science credit. So, I will be taking 5 college or university level classes next year, and 2, maybe 3, regular classes. Classes start on September 20th. Which leads me into my next big event.

There is no way I am going to be able to convince mom to drive me to class every other day. So, I have to figure out another way to get there. Which means I have to learn how to drive. I've been putting it off, because I'm kind of scared to drive. I'm not scared about getting into a car wreck and dying. No, the thing I'm scared of is getting into a car wreck and killing the other person. I don't really care if I get hurt, but if they die, I won't be able to forgive myself. Anyway, I had to go get my permit. I'm cutting it kind of close, because I have, at todays date, I have 5 months and 20 days until classes start, and 5 months and 16 days until I can try for my drivers license. Cutting close, I know. Anyway, so I got my permit, which, I had to take the test twice before I passed. I was so mad at myself when I failed, but I can't be good at everything the first time. So I have my permit, which means I have to get a car . . .

I have to get a car, which means I have to have the money to buy the car, which means I have to get a job. I'm trying to get one now. There is a strip mall about a mile from where I live, which I know from experience is at the most a 25 minute walk from where here. I haven't got one yet, but I'm working on it. I hope to have one by the end of the week.

So, that's it for the major posts in my life, I think. I'll keep trying to update more, but until I'm all caught up on my work (almost there!) and all the AP test are done, it's going to be kind of hard. Oh well. I'll do my best.
