So Busy!

Yet again, I feel like I can never stop. Yesterday I had to make a 6 page study guide for a huge History test that I have tomorrow and today I have to make a huge one for a Biology test that I have on Friday. Then, my Algebra teacher wants to put me in Honors Algebra which means that I have to take Honors History too. I have to learn about a billion things so that I will be up to speed with the people that are already in that class. It is so crazy! At least we only have three days of school next week. It will give me some time to catch up on the things that I need to learn. Today was my brother's birthday and we haven't given him any presents and I think it is driving him crazy. He has been looking around the house since he has been home. I think that he is going Trick - or - Treating. I wish that I could this year but I just have too much on my plate already. High school is way crazier that I thought that it was going to be! Well I better go eat so I can start that study guide that I have to do! I'll probably write back later...

Gosh Darn It!

Uhh...I am trying to put an awesome picture for my profile thing and it's not working! I have decided that I hate computers. They are so stupid...today my computer upstairs crashed and won't even turn on now so my dad has to replace the hardrive which he can't do till next weekend so my brother and I are stuck sharing a computer for a whole week. Ooh! On the other hand, I took a picture of my lovely purple Uggs for you all to see! They are pretty awesome aren't they? I wore them too the football game and along with three long sleeve shirt, Under Armor and a sweatershirt, I was reletivly warm. Looking at this picture...my room looks pretty messy. I guess I should clean it this week. We have a rule in my house that if my room isn't clean by Wednesday every week then I can't go out on Friday. I hate that rule. My room is never clean by Wednesday so I have to sweet talk my dad into letting me go to the movies or the football games. The last couple of weeks he hasn't cared because I had people comming over before the games so it's not like he is going to make me call them and cancel right before the game. I finally finished my French project and now I don't think that it is due tomorrow. I am sick of writing "J'ai" and "Je suis". I will show you what I had to do:

Moi (Me)

Je m'appelle Nicole. J'ai quatorze ans. Je suis née à Worcester. Je suis née le 3 decembre 1991. J'habite à Leominster dupuis quatorze ans. Je suis blonde et jeune. Je suis trés polie et assez sympa. En été, je joue lacrosse et au basket. En hiver, je vais snowboarding et joue piano. Aprés le lysée, je vais l'universite.

In English:

Me

My name is Nicole. I am 14 years old. I was born in Worcester. I was born on December 3rd, 1991. I have lived in Leominster for 14 years. I am blond and young. I am very poliet and rather nice. In spring, I play lacrosse and basketball. In winter, I go snowboarding and play piano. After high school, I want to go to college.

Now how much fun does that sound like...it is so boring! I am finished though so at least I don't have to speak anymore French until tomorrow. My picture thing still isn't working. It is being stupid and I hate stupid things. Well I guess I have nothing more to say!

Friday Night Lights and Chicken Noodle Soup

It has been a few days since I have posted so I'll have to catch up. The football game was fun. Our team was kicking butt before the game even started! We beat Brockton 28-15. It was the first time that we have beat them in a super long time so when we won everyone rushed the field. Some big guy stepped on my foot and practically broke my toes (not reall). It hurt so bad. Then yesterday I had to go to my cousin Joey's 3rd birthday party but the weather was awful so everyone was inside. Since it was so rainy and windy, we couldn't use the grill. My aunt made the most delicious Frico that I have ever had. (Frico is the canadien stew with chicken, potatoes, carrots and other good stuff.) Then when I got home, my dad had made chicken soup so I had some of that too. I don't think I will be having chicken stew/soup for quite a long time. I have to go do a French Project. J'ai trés fatigue! (I'm very tired!)

-Nicole

Tomorrow is Friday!

Sorry that I didn't post yesterday. Everytime that I tried to get online the Blogger thing said that it would only be down for an hour but they I would go to log on again and I still wouldn't be able to get on. School was okay today but tomorrow is Friday and we have a football game to go to. I hope that I won't freeze this time. I bought some UnderArmor the other day (along with a cute pair of "shoes that look like Uggs but aren't" that are purple...you heard me...). It is still probably gonna be cold. Everyone is comming over again before the game, like they always do, and I am so pumped. Last week we were all just hanging out and then Kim decided to get up and dance so of course we all had to follow...we are such dorks. On Saturday I have to go to my cousin's birthday. He is turing three and he is the cutest thing ever! Everyone that sees him just wants to give him a big kiss on the cheek. Homework stinks but I have a ton to do so I should get started because we are going out to dinner after. I have to write a Shakespearean sonnet. Sounds like fun right? Not!

The Best Sleepover Ever!

I slept over Ashley's house last night and it was the most fun that I have had in a long time. Her family is wicked close with a lot of other families that went to Sky View with us last year and they invited over the Carons, the Gaughans, and the Dewhursts. There were so many people at her house. Ashley's family already has four people, the Caron's have five, the Dewhursts have six and I was there....that's sixteen people in one house at one time. After we wated Alex make a fool of himself again, all the kids decided to go in the hot tub. It was so much fun. Ashley and I were hanging with all the guys who are so cool. After a little while in the hot tub, all the parents wanted to get in so Ashley, Mike, Dan, Jack, and me went inside to hang out and we all grabbed out IPods and we listened to each other's music which was fun. Then Dan wanted to play chess so I played him but after a while Mike got bored so he decided to ruin the game whichwas okay with me because I was bored. Then we danced because we had nothing better to do. From inside the house, we could hear the parents getting out of the hot tub so we all ran downstairs to the basement and when Ashley's dad found us he thought that we had been playing spin the bottle which we totally weren't (although it would have been fun). Then the guys left at 12:30 and Ashley and I went up to her room and talked about everything under the sun and then we went to bed finally at 3:30 this morning and then woke up at 10. I can't wait till she has another one because she said that I was going to come to everyone.

They Are So Fun!

I love my friends. They are like the only ones that can make me laugh so hard that my stomach hurts...that is exactly what happened yesterday. Kim, Gabby, Ashley and me were hanging out yesterday before the game and we had so much fun. Ashley was the first on over and because we are so cool, we were dancing in my room to Hannah Montana. Then we check out some websites online and we laughing so hard when we found out that Mitchel Musso is having a "win-a-date" contest and Ashley and I decided that we were gonna enter becuase we both think that he is super cute. Then Kim and Gabby go to my house and we danced in my room for a little longer then they were all yelling at me when I was putting my contacts in. We left a little after to go to the football game which was fun but it was so cold. The tempurature at game time was on 54 degrees, way to cold to be standing out in the wind for four quarters and a twenty minute half time. Marcus is funny...not. He heard about this kid that I thought was cute but he didn't know who he was so when the kid got to the game I pointed him out but I forgot how Marcus was and I had to watch him all night to make sure that he didn't say anything to "cute locker kid" as he is know with Amy and me. Even though it was cold it was still a fun night even though I don't know who won becuase Ashley adn Amy wanted to leave at the end of the 3rd. Well I have to go and eat breakfast. Ashley and I are hanging out later because she wants to make sure that I don't like Mike any more so she is inviting him over her house and we are gonna hang out and watch the Matrix...the best movie ever! I'll write back when I get home from Ashley's house.

Almost the End of the Week!

I can't wait until tomorrow....IT'S FRIDAY! J'ai sommeil! (That means "I'm tired" for all you non French speaking people) There's even another football game, that's three weeks in a row that we have had home games. I can't wait till the Turkey Bowl. It is gonna be such a big game this year. All the Freshman that are at LHS are pumped becuase they have a big pep rally and we have never been to one because they don't have then in middle school. Today was pretty uneventful. We had to watch part of the movie "Romeo and Juliet" which was okay but it wasn't the one with Leonardo DeCaprio which is that one that we get to watch when we finish the book. I was so happy last night...lol his is going to sound really stupid but my dad made brussel sprouts. They were so yummy. He makes them with brown sugar and maple syrup...they are definetly my favorite thing to eat. Well, I gott go take out my contacts! Fun, fun, fun!

-Nicole

Always in a Rush

I seem like life never slows down, not even for a minute. I just got home from school, have to go eat put in my contacts and then go to the eye doctor's office. I am just so tired already that I want to go to bed and sleep for two days. We had a walk day in school today and Mr. Cleave's wouldn't let Jen and I go to the bathroom so we kinda skipped part of the class but we didn't get in trouble...what he doesn't know won't hurt him. I have to go make a grilled cheese so I can go eat before I get some guy poking at my eye for an hour. I'll write back later if there is anything exciting.

-Nicole

Football...Yet Again

The football game was pretty boring. Ashley, Ashton, Amy, Dahinana, Mike and me just sat there the whole time and it was pretty boring. There was nothing to do, other than to watch the game but we never watch the game when we go...we just hang out. It is so much fun to hang out with them. The only one that I see all the time is Ashley but it is still fun to hang out with her. I finally got my contacts in after about a million tries and my left eye was on accident. We went to McDee's after the game which was super yummy...I mean who doesn't like I nice greasy burger...just kidding. We were joking around the whole time. Then Mike wanted to know why Francesca and I were fighting over the summer but I couldn't tell him because it was kinda about him. He still wants to know so I guess I am gonna have to tell him sooner or later and I would rather it be sooner. I would like to get it over with. I just don't want him to make a big deal about it because he has a girlfriend now and I don't want her to find out that I still like him because we don't get along as it is. I have to go to CCD so I'll write back tomorrow.

-Nicole

School...Yet Again

I went to school today. Just like I do everyday. Classes were more boring than usual and we didn't get anything done which is okay with me...we have no homework either. I love going to lunch. It is so much fun but it is sometimes annoying too. We have to cram like 14 people into a tabel that was made for eight. We are all doubled up in the chairs and our food is spread all over the table but we get to hang out with all our friends (and talk about all the hot guys that we see during the day) which is fun. I wish that it is a longer block though. We only have a 23 minute lunch and by the time you find a seat and get your food it is time to go. I have to go to another football game, this time the Freshman game, with Kim so she can tell me how much fun she had when she was in NYC. I can't wait till December when I get to so see the Rockette's as part of my birthday present. Well I have to go put my contacts in so Kim can see me without my glasses.

A Day of Fun

I slept over Meg's last night so we could watch Alex's show. He was really funny. Right at the beginning he fell into this like area of water and Meg and I were dying. It was the funniest thing that I have ever seen. Meg slept wicked late this morning. I woke up at about 7:30 and she woke up at 11. I just sat there and waited...and waited. Then her mom made us so French Toast PB&J. It was super yummy. It is like French Toast but with peanut butter and jelly...super good. Meg and I went to the mall after watching TV for a little while and she and I have super different styles. Everything that I liked was a bright color and Meg picked things that were gray, brown and she bought a white scarf that I talked her into. It just looked so cute on her. Then her mom picked us up from the mall and we went apple picking but there were no apples because it has been like really cold at night so they all fell off. We ended up buying some from the little store that they have at the orchard. Then Meg brought me home and I played piano for a little while. Then at 7 I watch Hannah Montana and here I am now. Lauren is yelling about a certain someone which is fine with me so I am gonna go talk to her.

-Nicole

Fun!

It was so late by the time I got home last night that I didn't even bother to write here. We won the football game 14-6 but no one was really watching anyways. Amy and I were looking for "locker kid" because she thinks that he is cute (he's called locker kid because his locker it next to mine). I use to think that he was cute too until I saw this sophmore that is adorable and he is even friends with my friend's brother which is awesome. So I hung out with Amy most of the night. Then I heard that Cassie was there so I went over to see her. I hardly ever get to see her anymore at school. Last year I ate lunch with her and she was in all my classes. I had Meg come over and she was trying to help me put in my contacts before the game but I do it completely different than she does. I stood up and like after two tries, I got it in. Then Meg said she had to go to the bathroom so I sat down at the table looked up and popped it in like that...everyone at the game said that I looked so different. Then I got home and my mom took out my contacts...I haven't mastered that yet and then I went to bed...I was so tired. Today I am suppose to rake leaves for my dad because I was a little short on cash last night so he lent me some to bring to the game. Then Meg and I are gonna hang out on her house and watch Hannah Montana and then Endurance. Our friend Alex was on that show and he kicked butt so almost every freshman at LHS is gonna check it out tonight. I'll write later about if it was good or not.

-Nicole

Football

I am so pumped. We got a football game tonight we were are of course going to win because we have a kiss ass team. A ton of people are comming over my house so we can get decked out in our blue and white so we can show some love for our team. And of course hang out and eat KCF....our traditional pre-game feast. It is gonna be so much fun and to top it off, I am gonna wear my contacts and it will be the first time that most of my friends see me without my glasses. Meg has to come over my house after her game to help me put them in though...I'm still not very good at that but everyone says that it gets easier. Well I gotta go do all my fun stuff before the game and I'm probably gonna go play some lacrosse catch with my brother...I'll write back after we kick so butt at the game!

Yuck!

I feel awful! I went to school today feeling fine and now I feel like I am gonna die. My stomach hurt, I have a headache, my throat hurts, I am so tired...I think I have to go to the doctor's office. I am freaking out because people at school have mono and I don't want to get it because you have it forever. You can't get rid of it! I guess that someone on the football team had it and they only have six water bottles that they all drink out of and my friend Marcus play Freshman football. Then on a field trip last Friday, Francesca and Marcus madeout and I think he got it from the football guys and then gave it to Francesca who gave it to Brianna (I don't know how) and maybe gave it to me...Brianna said that she had all the same symptoms that I had...this STINKS! I am gonna have my dad call the doctor so I can get tested but I think that involves needles which I am deathly afraid of and I never ever, ever want to be poked with one of those suckers. Plus, I have to have my doctor check my hand. A couple of the guys and I were playing lacrosse a few weeks ago and I had the ball in my net so a kid came up and hit my stick but his stick slipped down the shaft of my stick and hit my right hand on the knuckle of my pointer finger. This was like 3 weeks ago. It still hurts. Well, I have a ton of homework to do....summary on recycling for Bio, read Romeo and Juliet for English...all the good stuff like that.

-Nicole

I Forgot!

I got my contacts. I talking so much about school in my last post that I forgot. I am so chicken to put them in to and I am wicked scared to wear them to school because I look so different when I don't have my "cute" as everyone says glasses on. It's not that I hate my glasses but they are so annoying. Plus, after I turn 16, I get to start driving and who wants to wear glasses when they are driving? Okay, I have to go finish my homework but I thought that I should post that before I forgot again.

-Nicole

Wow!

It has been such a long time since I have posted. I guess I have been busy with school and all that good stuff. My freshman teachers are all awul. Bio was like my favorite class at the beginning of the year then my teacher became the devil and decided to correct our lab books without tell us in advance so we all did bad. I got a 71 which drops my A+ to a B-. Thats how bad it was. My history teacher is just not even from this planet. There is no other way that I could describe her. My Health teacher makes us count the calories in food and then doesn't give it to us. Algebra is easy...they put me in the wrong class so I am passing with flying colors. French 2 is easy too. We are in our 6th week of school and still reviewing French 1 stuff. My English teacher is pretty cool. He is my favorite teacher and there is next to nothing to say about him although he is making us read Romeo and Juliet which is gonna be hell. Lunch is definetly my favorite time of the day. They have the best hot dogs...they are to die for and Thursday is pasta day but I am afraid to get it because I've heard of some of the things they put in their sauce. It is so cool to be in high school. I thought that it was gonna be the same as middle school but it is the complete opposite. There are so many more people and you get pushed around when you are in the hallways. Every corner that you turn is another couple making out which can make you want to hurl. It is awesome to meet new people. I have been in class with the same hundred kids since the sixth grade so it is cool to meet people from the other middle schools. Most of them have changed a lot though. Most of the people that I was friends with in the 6th grade are so different and we hardly ever talk...unless they are in my Algebra class and want answers. Even over the summer, people changed. Some people who were sweethearts last year are the meanest (and least dressed) people this year. Football games are so much fun. I never liked football until I was in high school and now I like live for football. It is just so festive and you see everyone with the school colors on and getting decked out just to cheer our boys on. They are kicking butt so far but I can't wait until the Turkey Bowl Game. We are probably just going to kill Fitchburg like we do every year but it is just so entertaining to see people making fools of themselves. I love the Blue Devil. The senior class picks a guy to be the Blue Devil and he like starts all the cheers and stuff like that. At the last game he started the L-E-O-M-I-N-S -T-E-R thing and then he went to do it again, got to oh and then said O shit I lost it. My friend Meg and I were talking about it all night. That game was pretty boring and it is sad because it was our homecomming game but the school made a student entrace becuase a ton of people got drunk at the first game which is so gross. I heard that they want to build another middle school. We already have three in Leominster which isn't that big of a town...only about 40,000 people and most of them are old. My graduating class in high school is going to have about 520 kids in it. That is nothing compared to my friend Martha's 1,000 people in her graduating class...but she lives in Worcester so that is expected. They have so many more people there. I sometimes wished that I lived in a bigger city like NYC or some place in California or big, ole Texas. On the first day of school someone asked me if I was from Texas because I don't talk a mile a minute like most of the other girls at my school. I hear them talking in the hallways and I try to catch some of the converstation but they talk to fast! I guess with only 6 minutes to get from class to class you need to talk fast. Well I have to go do some French homework but I'll write back the next time that I have a chance.
