Anchorage Update

So sorry again, I haven't any new posts since November, but hey, I'm back!!
well, back on blogspot that is. I'm still here in Anchorage, have been here since January, and you know what? It pretty much rocks :)
I came here expecting to suck at school and hate all of my classes, and to pretty much just want to spend all of my time socializing, but school is actually pretty fun.
I got chosen as a junior honor marshall for the senior graduation on May 11, which pretty much means im among the top fifty students with the highest GPA's in my class.
pretty cool, i thought. [Thanks Erin for getting me to that point!]
and then i got another notice saying that my high GPA got me qualified for getting a mentor for next year, if I'm going to school in Anhorage next year that is. I'm not necessarily sure about whether I'm going to be going to school in Anchorage, Behtle, or Oscrville next year though. Family moving plans aren't quite certain at this point.
And while I haven't gone and made friends with absolutely everyone at my school yet, [I've come to realize that I'm actually painfully dead shy when meeting people that I have to spend the rest of the school year with,] I've made quite a few friends, all of whom are pretty darn cool, but still don't even know where i live yet, haha.
Soo, I guess that these past 4 months have been pretty great. I live with my best friend, whom I've gone to concerts with, played pool with, shopped with, and snowboarded with; I get to spend my aunties, cousins, and their kids, when i was only able to see them during vacations before i moved here; and i've basically kept to my straight A streak. the only problem that i've run into [schoolwise] so far is that i had C's in only two of my classes. both of which i've been working hard to fix up.
So far I'm loving Anchorage, loving having things to do, and loving having people to meet/run into at the mall. My wardrobe's expanded, My new bedroom [which i share with Hannah] looks like a dream, and McDonald's is only 6 blocks away. yeah. life is looking pretty good at this point =]

Hey Faith,
I'm reading blogs today. Sounds like your having fun in Anchorage. I was too when I went there. Well, long time no comment. I wonder, is your dad going to stay or move? Just asking or maybe not. Oh yea, we got 2nd place for the state N.Y.O. I'm guessing if you were here for N.Y.O you would of went to Anchorage for one foot and what ever event you were good at. I went to state for 2 foot, but I'll try my best next year for seal hop and try break the record and my best for two foot. I kind of sucked during the state, but at least I tried my best. Oh I've gone to far well I'll stop right here. Take care.

Hey C,
I forget your eskimo name but I believe it starts with a C. right? yeah anyways, that is surprising to hear.. You really have a sense of humor... I just wanted to comment, saying that all your stories are always interesting, but i do get a chance to read them but commenting on the blog, is something that i haven't in a while. Seems like everything is perfect now a days, especially life is picking up at its own pace. Yeah, writing a shortstory and persuasive paper is like very hard to do although i don't know how to tell stories but yeah once in a while i would have time for making a vivid explanation about making a fictional story but not all the time. don't know why that is.. anyways your stories seem to be interesting to read because they make me smile too. anyways take care.
