Well, I was looking at my post earlier and realized that I completely missed an entire 8th post hahaha. So, anyways I had a pretty good first day of school and I've should've been done with this whole blog thing but I looked back and I was not done. To start off my day, it was my first time ever driving by myself this year to school and I honestly love it so so very much. I actually enjoy driving unlike some people simply because I personally feel like I have a whole lot more freedom now when I am driving. Well, I know now not to go to school early simply because I do not like my homeroom and I do not want to be in there in the morning time so that surely won't occur again lol, just being completely honest on that one. My first period seems like it's gonna be a great class this year, there are not very many of us in there so it should be an okay class. My second I feel like it's gonna be crazy different because we have a packed class. My third is the same as last year's class, which is the choir and that's always fun. My fourth is psychology, which again already sounds like it's going to be a good class. My 5th is band, which is always fun no matter what. My 6th is English which is just a needed class and it's okay. My last class of the day is my 7th period because I have a free period during 8th period, so 7th was fun as well. After school, I had cheerleading practice which went down really well. So overall, my first day went really well and I'm happy that it did.

Well here we are- emily fitzgerald 11/11
The last blog post of the summer, Woah. So many things happened this summer and I will always remember them no matter what. I don't what to go back to school tomorrow, but I cannot wait to see where the future takes me in life and I'm so excited for this amazing ride called life. I want to focus on being my complete self this year simply because I just need to do me no matter what anyone says or what anyone thinks. This summer has changed my entire input on my entire life and I am so appreciative that it all happened for reason. I'm so proud of myself this summer for sure, I learned how to finally stay true to myself no matter what anyone thinks about me. I honestly cannot wait to see what is in store for me this year because this year already sounds like it's going to be an absolute blast. I'm ready to see myself grow and live my life to the absolute fullest. I've grown up so much this summer and I'm proud of myself for doing so. I will for sure miss all of my nightly sunsets and warm nights. I will miss all of the mini-trips to Branson and all of the MANY lake trips. But if I'm being quite honest, I cannot wait for the fall/ winter season because I completely cannot wait to see all of the different outfits I can come up with this year. I want to work on many different things this year, but I for sure want to work on how to love my life and be happy that I'm living such an amazing life. I will forever look back at my high school experience so I need to make it big and make it something I can remember forever. This year my main job is being captain of my cheer team and I'm so happy that I finally got this job to experience because I already know it's going to be so great and so much fun. Although there will be many struggles taking care of that job, I'm sure I can do it. Well, there you have it kids, my last blog post of the summer. It was fun blogging with all of you!
Goals for the school year- Paris McGee 11/11
I'm going to be setting goals for myself for this school year.
My school year goals:
Keeping my grades up
I'm going to keep my grades up by being able to focus more in class and use my time wisely. Using my time in class to do my assignments give me time to do stuff after school hours. I think if I keep on task I will be able to get more things done in smaller periods of time. So I won't have so much homework when I get home.
Staying off my phone during class
I find myself getting bored in class and not being able to focus because I am distracted by my phone. I think that if I keep myself from being on my phone I will do better on my work because I won't be rushing last minute to get it done. I will put my phone down and actually do my work when I am told to.
NOT PROCRASTINATING
Clearly as you can all tell I am the worst procrastinator in the world. If I just go ahead and get my work done and not wait, I won't be rushed to get it done which will result in me being able to make better grades because I will already have it done.
To miss the least amount of school possible
If I'm at school I'll be able to be in class and learn the things I need to know for that day. If I miss then I will be behind and I struggle to catch up. But missing school has down falls like not being able to go to cheer practice and just being behind. When I am thinking about not going to school, I just need to tell myself to get up and go.
Being on time for school
Last year, I had too any tardies. I have a really bad habit of being late for school. This year, I am going to try to go to bed early. Then I can get up earlier and be on time for school. Tardies can get me and trouble and I do not want that.
The Tiktok incident- Paris McGee 10/11
Okay yeah making tiktoks are fun and yes it's great when they go viral but when a tiktok goes really wrong really fast it isn't so fun anymore. This summer Boaty and I thought it would be funny if we made a tiktok video where you chop up a pickle.. And well lets just say Boaty chopped my finger instead of the pickle. So off to First Care we went.. When we got there they thought they might have to give me stitches but since it was such a straight cut they were able to glue my finger back together.
The funny part about it is I didn't even realize she cut my finger. I thought she just hit it, I didn't feel it. Then I looked at my hand and there was blood everywhere. My mom freaked out.. I also think I forgot to mention that it was my parents' anniversary and we were cooking them an anniversary dinner. I felt super bad about what had happened so I came straight home and finished cooking and we ended up getting to eat dinner that night still. We had steak and mashed potatoes, which were so good, we had mac & cheese, not regular mac & cheese either. It was baked mac & cheese. The food was super good. Then for dessert we had homemade strawberry shortcake that I had made.
I still have a scar and I think it will be there forever and sadly it's on my wedding ring finger so I'll always have a scar on my finger there. I told boaty that since she tried to cut my finger off now she has to hold her hand up in my engagement pictures so i don't have a ugly scar in my pictures lol.
Sad that Summer is ending- Paris McGee 9/11
Welp it looks like summer 2021 has finally come to an end. I am so very sad that it can't last forever. I've had such a great time this summer with all the people I love so very much. All the shopping trips, hangout days, dinners, late night swims, I'm definitely gonna miss it. I've been dreading the day that I could say that summer is finally over. I'm ready to go back to school so I can see everyone again but I'm not ready to not be able to go and do things with friends all the time.
Well for my last couple days of summer, I've hung out with friends, celebrated my birthday, went to the movies, got a tattoo, and rode around. Last night we all met up at the High School and played car hide and see. It was super fun getting to ride around with friends. Basically we all got into different groups and got in cars and drove around and parked in a hiding stop and waited for people to come find us. Then we met back up at the school and just talked for a little bit.
Well I might as well have fun on my last day of summer, so today we are going to Jonesboro to eat and to just have fun before we have to go back to school. I still have to pick up some necessities for school. I need a couple binders and some notebook paper.
I really hope next summer ends up just like this one if not better because I'm super sad that this one came to an end so quickly.
Life with a little brother- Paris McGee 8/11
First of all, if you have a little brother or sister you know how crazy it is.
My brother's name is Jace, he is 8 years old and he loves to play video games. Some of his favorite games include Fortnite, Call of Duty, Lego Worlds, etc. You sure know when Jace is playing his Ps4 because he gets super excited and yells at the tv. Half the time, We come straight home and he goes running to his room to play with his friends he has found playing these games. He loves being able to communicate with the other kids playing the games. You can always hear his game blaring throughout the house and then him yelling through his headset at his friends.
Yes having a younger sibling at times is fun but, sometimes it isn't so fun. I love being able to go places with my brother and just getting to spend time with him but, he likes to show out sometimes when he doesn't get his way. We sit for hours playing on his Ps4 or playing board games that he likes.
As some of you may know Jace is super rowdy and loves to constantly be doing something so during the week I babysit Jace and we always go do fun stuff just to get out of the house. We go to Jonesboro all the time, out to eat, shopping, go buy him a toy, fun places, etc. We have had some funny stories also. Jace is quite the character, he loves making jokes and making people laugh.
Kaley Stevens -- The last night/day of Summer 11/11
Here I am, writing my last blog post the day before Summer ends. I am such a procrastinator. I really do have a problem. I stayed up til 3 am last night doing all my comments. I am really glad I got them done. With all of this being said, after I get done with this post, I am going to try to make the best out of my last day of summer. My dad just left tog o on a work trip and he will not be back for a week. So, today me and my mom are going to have a girls day. We are about to go to Jonesboro to get lunch. We will probably eat Fuji because we eat that way too many times a week. Then, we are going o do some last minute school shopping. We are going to get food and snacks for me to take to school. And, try to find some mechanical pencils because I have literally looked everywhere for the ones I use and cannot find any. I am very picky and only like using those pencils. I am honestly super sad for this summer to go. It has been such a good summer. I have been very bless to have had tons of fun this summer. Last night was one of the best. About 20-25 of us got together and played car hide and seek for the last night of summer. It was a super fun time. car hide and seek is a game where a bunch of people split into teams, pick a group to ride in a car with, then go hide while one person comes and finds everyone. You have to stay in the city limits. We all had a super great time and I got to see some people that I had not seen all summer. Tomorrow morning, a group of people are going to eat breakfast for the first day of school. I cannot wait, I think it is going to make the year start off right with some of my best friends.
