Happy Friday the 13th!

My day has been pretty good so far, surprisingly.

I know I haven't posted the past so many whatever days. Monday night, my dad called and told me that my last living grandma had passed away the previous day (Sunday).

My family is pretty weird.

I've always had my real mom. When I was four, she divorced my real dad. About a year later, she remarried my step dad, who adopted me.

My real dad's mom is the one that passed recently. So it's kind of awkward because I haven't talked to any of them, besides my grandma, in about 14 years. Well, I saw my real dad and his new wife and sister at my mom's funeral. Talk about awkward between step dad and real dad.

Despite what my biological parents went through, my grandma still wanted to keep in contact with me because I'm awesome. But she sent me christmas cards and birthday cards every year. I'll miss that. Sometimes we would write back and forth just for fun. I always loved trying to decipher her old handwriting.

Either way, I'm gonna miss my grammy, of course. It hasn't hit me yet since I haven't talked to anyone since my step dad was the one who called and told me. I'm gonna call my cousin tomorrow, see how everyone's doing, catch up on things, all that good stuff.

Other than my grammy passing away, I've been really sick during this same time. My (step) dad and I figured it had to have been the flu, since nothing else made much sense. I'm finally over it. After 64 hours of not being able to eat anything, I finally managed to keep a sandwich down this morning on my way home from school. Yay!

I'm pretty excited about a couple things. One, next thursday, I'm leaving with my BPA (Business Professionals of America) group to compete in a state-wide competition. There's different categories you can compete in, each person gets up to three. Mine are: 1.) Fundamentals of Spreadsheets, 2.) Advanced Office Practices, and 3.) PowerPoint Presentation - Individual. I'm looking forward to it.

The second thing I'm looking forward to is that also next Thursday IS MY BIRTHDAY! Woot woot! I have to celebrate my birthday with 20 or so other people plus however many other schools are gonna be there. Who knows. But either way, I'll be 19. I know that's one of those ages where it doesn't matter but hey, a birthday's a birthday.

That's pretty much all I have.

OH, WAIT, just kidding!

Song of the day - which I'm turning into the song of the week.



I know Chase likes this song.

I Don't Care by Fall Out Boy

Hehe.

Have a safe and fun weekend!
