School is out, and I feel that this is the perfect time to reflect on how this year has been going. If you will remember I did a post in January with my New Year resolutions ( http://quippyquintessence.blogspot.com/2012/01/another-year.html) here is how they have been going...
Resolution: To raise my Latin grade and entire letter in the second half
Result: Latin grade went from a - C to B +. Success!
Resolution: To not get bellow a 90 on any week of my Adv Bio or Worldviews work.
Result: Adv Bio was an average of a 87 for the semester but my higher first half grade let me keep it an A.
Worldviews of the Western World for the third quarter didn't work out so well and one week I did get a 66, however in the 4th my lowest weekly grade was a 96.5!! Success!
Resolution: To love my family better
Result to date: Getting better but not where I want to be. Still in progress
Resolution: Learn the difference between sarcasm and wit
Result: In my vary biased opinion I think that my sarcasm has been used mostly for gentle-teasing, and is used less often. I'm still wondering whether I am cut out to be witty though....
Considering all things I would say this year is heading down fairly well. There have been many trials and challenges, but, "God is in His Heavens, all is right with world" (taken from Anne of Green Gables)
I have some very dear and wonderful friends who have kept my head up and set on God, as well as made what little of my summer that has yet taken place very happy.
For example the sweetest most Godly girl on the planet graduated Saturday and I got to spend the day and the night and the next day with her and her amazing family!
So far I have seen this movie 4 times, and I love it SO much. I'm not much of an action movie fan but I love this one so much, and have some really great friends willing to see it with me, hopefully I can see it some more, but maybe thats pushing my luck.......
We watch the greatest show that is not on tv right now
I learned that I like arcade games, a lot, and that I would most likely would be better at being a sniper than jumping rolling pizzas...
My plans for this summer simply revolve around getting a job, visiting colleges, hanging out with friends and growing closer to God.
These I hope I can be totally successful at.
A deep thank you on this remembrance day to all who have risked their lives for every single person in this country unconditionally. Specially Grandpa Bunny, Papa, Dad, Michael and Jamie, I love you all and am so proud to be your grand daughter/daughter/ cousin.
Cum Deos Liberorum
