This Has Truly Been an Awesome Week!

You'll never guess what I received in the mail today! An invitation to join the National Society of High School Scholars!!! This is the third invitation I have received this year for participation in an academic program. This week has been full of surprises and it's awesome that they all occurred the last week of school!


And hey, who doesn't love being given a free bumper sticker?!? ;)

No One Would Listen

This is a deleted scene/ song from the 2004 version of Phantom of the Opera with Gerard Butler, Emmy Rossum and Patrick Wilson which is 2 hours, 20 minutes, and 56 seconds long..enjoy! This is just a taste of my Phantom of the Opera / Love Never Dies obsession! 

A Day Full of Adventure......

My Young Womens group and I decided to take the day and discover The Getty. I was once before but  I hardly remembered anything about it. At that time of my life, a day time adventure was much needed, therefore, my visit, especially on this occasion, was much appreciated.

After our fabulous visit to The Getty, the girls and I then grabbed a bite to eat at In-N-Out! Talk about missing some LA eatery.
 Look at this view!?!
       Whenever I see someone making a duck face I will imagine this...




I really like this chair..pink and an antique!
                                             
What time is it?!?
                                                           
Cool fireplace...
A couch fit for a princess!
I wonder where this leads?!?
How many fireplaces does a princess need in one room?!?
  Romantic art...
Romantic art...
Degas is one of my favorites!



Before the Verdict.....
 Not Guilty!


Rembrandt...


Awkward picture!




That's better!










Awkward.....

It's crazy to think how far we've all come since then. 




Stalin Ultimate European Ruler AP Euro Project

For the end of the year AP Euro project, each student is individually representing a European ruler. Guess who I am?!? Stalin. We have to fight and debate for the title of Ultimate European Ruler and my plan of attack is to stand out from everyone else and do something no one else is doing...the only down side about this whole project is Mr. Snyder is having us present by time period and i am in the last unit, and the last individual to present today was a Lorenzo the Magnificent...so I have a long wait ahead....






So, since the early posts of my blog seem to always haunt me, I decided to do a mass "purging" of some posts. However, this one I put too much effort into. 

Aside from gaining the opinion that all adolescents probably shouldn't have access to the internet (some of the posts I find on Facebook and on here kill me) I really think I should of worn a mustache to enhance my project.
