College

I know I'm only a junior, so I don't reeeally need to be concerned quite yet, but I just want college to be perfect and not regret what school I go to or what I major in. So I'm trying to at least kind of decide that right now.
Me and my friend Becca recently got out pSAT scores back, I definitely did better than I did last year. So we looked it up online, and I can send my scores to four schools for free. Oh, and I'm going to take the SAT early, just in case, in March. I'll be signing up for that in February. I'm pretty excited because I looked at the average SAT scores of people that go to the colleges I want to apply to and I think I'll do better, cause I did better on my pSAT's... so I hope I do even better.
I was looking through my papers and pamphlets from OP-Shop and my Career Exploration Class and since I can send my SAT scores, and I think ACT scores too, to four schools without charge.. I decided I will probably (unless my mind changes during senior year or the end of this year) apply to Northern Arizona University, Arizona State University, Mesa Community College (just in case), and Purdue University in Indiana (a school I really like thats not in AZ). And maybe another University cause I'm not sure if MCC needs my scores.
I know Purdue will be alot of money, even NAU and ASU will be alot, so I'm going to start going to my couselor once a week to look at possible scholarships and I'm going to be working on them this summer too. I know Purdue is a long shot, but I've always dreamed of going to an out-of-state college.. but NAU is definitely my next choice, maybe even my first.
My only problem now is choosing a major, I would prefer knowing what I want to major in before I'm out of high school. But we'll see what happens. Right now I'm thinking about either Psychology, Journalism, or even Interior Design...? My cousin Scott is going to NAU right now for Psychology so I am going to talk to him alot about that and I'm going to take Psychology for a semester next year to see if its really what I want to do. I'm also going to take the AZVAB (I think thats what its called... that definitely could be wrong though) next year because it will help alot to tell me some things that would interest me for sure. And I've been doing a test online to kind of show me things that should interest me. Some are definitely not me (funeral director was a choice... I mean really..?), but some sound very possible.

Anyways, thats enough about college.. its just been something on my mind lately. Haha, well last time I wrote I hadn't been back to school yet. So I guess I'll start there.

School has been great so far. I love all my classes, I have basically the same ones but a little rearranged. First is math, and I've done all my homework so far.. I'm improving. :) Then I have science with my brother, which is actually fun. I'm able to help him out if he needs it. And he even bought me a muffin last week which was nice of him. Haha, then I have english and I sit right behind Brittany which just makes it all the more better. We've been doing alot of essays lately, but its not too bad. I think all of mine have been great so far. Then is seminary and its definitely not as good as last semester, but thats okay. And I have that class with Ken too, but he sits a row away so we don't talk. After lunch is Honor Choir and I absolutely love all of our songs so far. We sang at a MLK day thing yesterday and that was awesome. Last is Yearbook, most of the fun people left and we don't have too many new people, but its still semi fun. Just not as good as last semester.

So I've been spending alot of time with my friends, which isn't unusual actually. But I've been having alot of fun. I still don't have texting til next month though, which is difficult, but I'm surviving. Oh, and I got a debit card on Wednesday and applied for a job at Fry's yesterday. I really hope I get the job, especially since I have connections.. cause it'd be nice to have money for once.

Ken is in Washington D.C. until Wednesday or Thursday I think, and I hope he has as much fun as I had when I was there. His flight took forever. He left Saturday morning at 4:30 am for the airport and called to say he landed at almost 2:00 pm Arizona time! So about 4:00 pm there. He gets to go to the inaguration and I hope he gets alot of pictures, I would love to see those. I'm sure he'll have a great time, its an awesome experience.

Well I think thats pretty much it for now... I just need to figure out how to put pictures up IN my posts. ;)
