I am shockingly busy. That's what I get for not being able to disappoint anybody or say no. Let's see, I'm in AP World. That's my only real AP but, I have advanced english, independent study for french, algebra 2, concert choir, drama, and health. It's a lot of work and then pile on swim team daily from 4-6 p.m. and rehearsal from 3:10-3:45. I also have to learn my lines, I'll get to them. My accent is more of a priority though. I do need a southern accent. It needs to be cute, not hick-like. Well jeez.

Thank goodness it's a weekend. I'm exhausted. And sick. I have a cough and to my great surprise I coughed up blood for a hot sec. Oh, it was terrifying. I was home alone and I was sure that I was becoming possessed. Baaad times. Also, yesterday I had an asthma attack during swim team. It was verrrry scary. I'm sore, tired, and overworked. Today I sat on my butt all day. It was so great. At least, I'm not raped by my father and beaten by my mother like Precious Jones. Yeah, she's the main character in a book called Push. It's pretty good but I've only just started it.

Tomorrow a couple of my friends are going to see Ponyo. Part of me wants to go, but the other part knows that I need to stay home and do homework. And rest to recover from this cold. Ugh. I hate being sick so much. It seems so glamourous to have someone take care of you, in real life it sucks. Especially with a busy schedule like mine. I just need to have nap time every day. Too bad I have school and practice and rehearsal.

Theatre is what I want to do and I've gotten so much positive encouragement it just isn't fair for me to have to commit to sports when I could be devoting my time to something that I love.

Gah. Teen angst.
