Inspiration

At times when you think that you have failed at everything, you have really just succeeded. You have realized that you are not perfect, that not everything turns out just right in life.

Think about all the good things you have done, the good times in your life. You have definitely made a difference in someone else’s life, you just don’t know it – I can guarantee it. If you are reading this blog, you have made a difference in my life.

Think about this: How can I do any better? What can I do to make a difference, to help more people, to change the world, one small step at a time?

Think about the future, not the past. Hope for the best, not the worst.

Believe in yourself and you too can make a difference in the world.

When you have all the time in the world, but you just don’t know what to do with it

So, really right now, I don't have an excuse to NOT blog.

I'm tired. And I haven't blogged in quite a while. I guess, I stopped when I realized that all that was on my mind and everything that I would end up blogging about is exams. It get's boring, real fast.

Anyways, my exams were kinda good. I guess. Religion exam, my first one, was not as easy as I expected. I mean there were lots of easy parts, however I was not completely confident when I finished. I didn't know the answer to every question. So that to me for religion at least, is bad. Then I had English, which I was pretty confident about. I prepared for it, and the exam was exactly what I had prepared. So I was ready. However the only problem with that exam is that I did the minimal five paragraphs. But I still think its fine. Cause really, that's all the time I had to do. I had an hour and a half. I finished all five just on time. So that to me is pretty good. I mean considering that its English and that every year for English exams I have to rush and I don't do too well on those. Third I had math, which I was really worried about for some reason. I knew I would do good, however, I guess it is because of the fact that it was math and I know that I would do well on it or at least I had to make sure that I would do well on it that I studied a lot and stuff for it. By the time it actually got to the exam the funny thing is that lots of the questions that I practiced the night before was identical to the ones on the exam. And because I was asking people those questions and stuff I remembered the answers =D. Last exam was today's chem exam. I guess maybe I was already in my summer mode which is really bad, so I wasn't really motivated to study for it. But in the end I did end up studying, a LOT, but not enough. So yeah, I went to school early today and I studied along for an hour then with melisha for an hour. And those two hours of studying helped me memorize most of the stuff I thought I needed to know. But then by the time it got to the exam, the multiple choice, as usual, killed me. I was so lost there. I had a habit of putting an arrow or a line beside questions I wasn't too sure of for the multiple choice and at the end I counted that I had like 22 arrows. That means if I got all those arrowed ones wrong I would have gotten 22/40, which is real bad. But then the short answer was also bad, and the problem solving was easier than I expected and I was confident with them. However, the final essay/ lab question was also a killer. I had no clue what I was writing. I think I just ended up writing the first things that came to mind.

I took the school bus home today. That was something new. I haven't taken the school bus home all my life, so this was a first time. I just thought I had to document that. Haha

So yeah, today is the first day of summer. But I didn't really have anything to do when I got home. Well, I should say I didn't really feel like doing anything when I got home. I have to clean my binders up, which I just did. And I also have a few other things that I put aside to do for the summer but I guess, I just don't feel like it today. Anyways, so when I got home, I ate something and then I went out for a bike ride. It was fun as usual. Except today I did something different. I brought out a book and I went to the park and I just read in the shade under the trees. I nearly fell asleep too… that was nice.

This summer I have a lot of things that I want to do. But I know I wont have time to finish all those things. I just hope I get around to at least some of them. Two of the main things are to study bio and calc. I want to make sure im good with those next year. Well, I guess another reason is just because I like them the most. I want to do it, it's fun =D – and yes, im crazy

What else is cool? Well I'm going to sherway gardens tomorrow with my mom AND my brother which will be awesome I hope. My brother never comes shopping so yeah, that'll be an experience. Also, next week I am volunteering/helping out with grad for two days in a row. I am surprisingly half excited for that and half dreading it. Cause I signed up so I have to go. But I want to go. Like I guess, it's summer and it's the beginning, so I'm excited and I want to just do whatever I want whenever I want. But I don't really want to go to grad help. But then on the other hand I really want to help out and I really want to see what it's like. Also I think it will be really cool to see all the grade 12's graduating together. So yeah.

Anyways, that's it for now.
