What if I were moving? What would I do?
Answer: I really don't know. I've settled here so well, and so nicely. I can't leave this place. This is my home. My blood may be Chamorro, but my heart is here in Hawaii. ): My heart is wrenching. Ashums wrote me a letter telling me how much she loves me and how our friendship is special to her. Perfect timing, right? Hehe... So sad...

Egh... so tired. My schedule has been so off. I've been waking up later and later every day. I'd woken up at nearly 7am today, and arrived in class when the tardy bell rang. Staying up doing homework and reading til 1am is fun, actually. It makes sleeping a lot easier. And although this is a lot of work, I actually feel very accomplished. I feel less scattered and behind.

So I'm in Ms. Jones's class right now. I should be reading my Queen of Scots book, but... I can do that a little later.
I should also be working on my writer's portfolio or my Where Im From poem. Yeah, I should go and do that.
Peace out.

Discoveries~!
A goal of mine for YEARS have been to learn the lyrics and meanings to a few songs by J.D. Crutch and Marianas Homegrown, more specifically Apo Magi, Benti Uno Yu Gi Presu, and Inner Voices. Inner voices happens to be song priority number ONE. But... father merely googled songs and printed out Apo Magi and threw it at me. Harr harr.
I'm irritated because I REALLY want to learn the words to Inner Voices, but... I'm afraid to pick out words myself, because I don't speak Chamorro. Plus, I might be getting words wrong. And my whole family (minus siblings) speak Chamorro, so you know how that goes.
It's a gorgeous song, really. I've been dying to play it on guitar. My father sings it wonderfully.
Actually, I've been recently thinking about arranging all these songs into piano solos, or maybe sing-a-longs, but that's always hard to do. I can't even make an original arrangement for Smother Me, which is a much crisper and cleaner recording than Apo Magi and whatnot. But still, maybe I should try one day. I'm going to become a musician, anyways. Probably going to major in musical education and minor in compositon, so maybe that'll be my first project. Wait, that means I get to meet J.D. Crutch and others! Yay! Maybe I can finally meet Uncle Johnny (Sablan) and arrange stuff he wrote. Aunty Sabrina would be so thrilled that her best friend's daughter is helping her husband make money. XD
Also, upon my internet researching, I've discovered that Gwen Stefani made a cover of Benti Uno Yu Gi Presu called Veintouno. It was SUPPOSED to be released on her second solo album, but it never was. My dad and I are on edge to hear what it sounds like. That's big: a GIANT music artist making a cover of a CHAMORRO song. :D WOOOOH!

My Life Revolves Around School
Yeah, the title just says it all. Everything I talk about deals with school, one way or another. Even my little writing bits: all written in school. :ahem: Anyways...
So my articles are all done, along with my sketches for Sueoka's class. All that's left is to actually create the magazine. Hoorah. But in any case, I still have a B in his class. That WON'T do. I need to bring that up.
For Mrs. Tuifua's world history class, I also have a B. But that's no biggy; I'm only down by 4%. And I think I did very well on my Renaissance/Scientific Revolution test today.
Ms. Jones is the only class aside from band that I have an A in. It's relatively easier once I keep my head in the game.
Mr. Huycks I still have a C, but I'm working on that.
