So, apparently I haven't posted since Friday the 13th. I'll back up til Valentine's day then.
On Valentine's day, I had to work. Sucks but like I have a valentine to spend time with anyway. Instead, we had a party at my house. My dad's fiancee gave me a singing bear that sings "I'm too sexy for my shirt" HAHA love it. And she gave me some candies. Yum. So at work, it was boring. I studied for a test I had Monday. I'll get to the results of that. Other than studying, I had to work on a powerpoint I had to do for a state competition, i'll get to that too.
Sunday, we didnt do anything. My dad and his fiancee went to church, then we all went out for a birthday dinner for me. My birthday was thursday, by the way! Yep. I'm 19 now. Woo. Whatever. 19 is a stupid age. There's nothing fun about it other than being the last year of teenage years. One more year til complete legalness! But anyway. Sunday I had to head back to school. YUCK. Along the way, I stopped at my dad's fiancee's house. It's like an hour from mine. I stopped to see her daughters, and her and my dad were up there so I stayed to chat for a while. Like 3 hours. So I ended up heading back to school in the dark. It was kinda creepy yet awesome at the same time. Seems to take longer in the dark even if I am going the same speed.
Monday was my test in Intro to Business. I got a 91% ! One of the best grades in my class lol. I'm doing pretty good this semester. Way better than at K-State. (sorry, Chase) I didnt do much else on Monday, except work on my powerpoint for BPA.
Tuesday. I dont remember this day. Let's skip it.
WEDNESDAY! Omg what a hectic day that was. I had to get up at 7 am to deliver cookies for our weekly fundraiser thing. But the cookies fucked up in the oven and the bakers and I had to miss most of class which was crucial to the BPA competition. But my teachers caught me up. I finished my powerpoint completely and packed for the competition.
Thursday was my birthday! I know i said that but you know. We had to leave for BPA state competitions at 7 am. We got to our hotel around noon and we had to get dressed up for the opening ceremony for the competitions. For the competitions, all you do is take tests in the subjects you sign up for and hope you do a good job. My first test was at 4 thursday afternoon. It was Advanced Office Systems and Procedures. Sounds complicated right? IT WAS. I'll tell you what i placed in a bit. Then I had another test at 6 in Fundamental Spreadsheet Applications. That was easy as breathing. I tell you what i placed in that too. So I only had 2 test thursday night. We're required to take 3 and then we had to take 3 tests in the open events (those are for everyone). So I got back to the hotel and my roommate, Daneen, and I ordered pizza for dinner. Took us literally 2 hours to figure out what we wanted. We finally settled on 3 pizzas; pepperoni, sausage, and cheese, and then get some cheesey bread. YUM. Then bed time!
Friday, I had my last major test at 8:30 am. It was in Powerpoint Presentation Management - Individual. We were given a topic. The topic was, we were an event planner for the 2015 national leadership conference location. So we had to pick a city, research it, and present it. I did mine on Portland and so did one of my other BPA friends from my school. Out of all the big ass cities in America, we chose the same damn one. I betcha Jackie copied me. I'll tell you how I did in that in a minute. Also on Friday, I took my 3 open tests in: Computer Technology, Informational Technology, and Management/Marketing/& Human Resources. I did pretty well in those. After everyone was done testing, part of the group went out shopping for an hour or so just to get away. Then we grabbed the rest of the group back at the hotel and had a group dinner at Monterrey which is an amazing mexican restaurant. My teacher, Jodi (we call her by her first name to her face too), was complaining that she was gonna turn 30 this summer. I laughed and said "omg" just like that and everyone at our table laughed. I thought Jodi was gonna choke on her tea for a minute. But it was awesomely fun. After dinner, we went back to the hotel, and there was a BPA social event for everyone there. I didnt go. I fell asleep at like 8 pm lol. Go me.
Which brings me to today. We had to get up at 8 am to get ready for the awards ceremony at 10 am. I was nervous as fuck cuz I was afraid I didnt do as well as I thought I would've. BUT for the moment of truth:
In Fundamental Spreadsheet Applications = I GOT FIRST PLACE!
In Advanced Office Systems and Procedures = I GOT SECOND PLACE! still as awesome!
I didnt place in my Powerpoint Presentation THANK GOD cuz I did NOT wanna take that event to nationals.
I placed top 10 in all three of my open tests I believe. I dont remember. My certificates wont come til sometime next week. until then, I cant tell you what I placed in lol.
So, that's that and I get to go to nationals! Which, this year, is in DALLAS, TEXAS! Where my roots come from. WOOT WOOT! Nationals are during the week before fuckin finals. OUCH but who cares! I'M GOING TO DALLAS! If you havent guessed, I'm excited. Cant wait.
So that's how I've been and what I've been up to.
As for the song of the day, I dont have one lol. I can't pick one at the moment but no big deal right?
Right!
Have a good rest of the weekend!
