Blogging and College... again

I never knew how much work it was to write a blog. Everyday when I turn on my computer I see my blog page saved under my bookmarks. All I can do is think about how I have not written a post in a long time. I feel kind of guilty about that, because it was my goal for this year to write a blog.
The first month of school is almost over, which is a good thing. Everyone has told me that senior year is the easiest year in school. Well, so far, it has been the hardest. Mostly because of the idea of college applications looming over my head. At first the talk of college excited me, now it brings up a lot of stress. Today I checked all of the deadlines for the colleges that I am applying to, and I realized something, I need to make a schedule. That is not something that they teach us in school, how to schedule. That should be a class on its own.
This year it seems as if there are days when I don't have any work at all, and then the next few days all I am doing is cramming to get things done. Today is one of the more relaxed days, which is nice.
One thing that I noticed today was that people don't ever take the time to just look at things. In art class today we started drawing oranges. At first I pictured my final drawing as a circle, but eventually I realized that there is more to an orange than just a circle. I think that's really interesting.
Another thing that I find funny is writing "I" instead of "One" in my notes, or even this blog. That is because of english class this year. We are not allowed to use first or second person.

One great thing about today was the warm greeting I got from my puppy, Max, today. When I walked in the door, he almost jumped out of his fur because he was so excited to see me. It was very cute.

I think that is all for now. I think I might start my two projects that are due in a few days. Wish me luck!
