Cold feet

Can you believe that Merriam Webster actually has a defination for “cold feet“?

Apprehension or doubt strong enough to prevent a planned course of action

And that pretty much what happened today with regards for asking someone to prom today. More specificly, the apprehension part. I’m going to wear so warmer socks and try again tomorrow. It’s all about the timing…it really is.

The end of a very hectic week…and the beginning of another

Last week was very hectic. I started my third and final trimester, I began rehersal for How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, and sometime mid week I announced I was going to Prom. On Thursday, we blocked the first part of How to, the overture to be percise. Suficive to say, it’s very entertaining. Everybody should purchase tickets now before they sell out, which they almost always do a week or so before the performance. On Friday I helped setup for my school auction. While setting up some lights, I strained a muscle in my back. That left me moaning in pain for a better part of the weekend. However, I am happy to report that I am feeling much now. Saturday afternoon I saw The Passion. I’m not quite sure what to say about it, however, it has given me a lot to chew on, which is always a good thing. And just tonight, I figured out who I’m going to take to Prom. I’m not going to say who, but no one ever going to guess who it is, except maybe Hanway. I’m going to ask her tomorrow…

The Begining of the Begining of the End…or something like that

My first week of classes for the 3rd and final trimester is almost done. My classes are pretty good: Physics, Life after SAAS, Study, Page to Stage/Senior Project (English), Lunch, Ballet, Calc II, and American Government. Usually at about this time on Friday, I’m really ready for the week to be over. But it really feels like the week is only half over. All the better I suppose. I still haven’t decided on a college yet, but most of you should be able to surmise that CSM is going to be the place to be…however, that is in no way final. I have decided to go to prom. I’m not sure who it’s going to be with, seeing as I have no current girlfriend. Quinn, Peter, Ben, et al. have put together a list of potential candiates.

Running around Greenlake

I had to get up at 7:30 this morning…at Saturday morning…just to go run around Greenlake. But wait, it gets better! I had to do it in under 30 minutes…and to even my amazement, I did! In 29 minutes and 30 some seconds, just under the cutoff. Perhaps even more impressive than running around all 3.2 miles of Greenlake in under 30 minutes was the fact that I didn’t see a single Canadia Goose! Not a single one! Not even a trace of one. What ever the Seattle Parks Department did, it worked. No crap on the bottom of my shoes this time ’round.

The end is near

Well, I just finished by 5th and final Final of my entire high school career. It feels rather good, however, also unsettling. While I work on closing one book in my life, I have to work on opening a brand new book. This has never really been done before, so it will be an interesting time.

Culmination of my High School Career

Tomorrow pretty much begins the begin of the end for high school. After four years of pain and suffering, I’m almost done and get to move on to 4+ more years of pain and suffering at college. However, some exciting things have been happening. As I’ve already mentioned multiple times, Andy and Julia were married on Sunday. I also am going to start working on seting up my Windows Server 2003 box today. Tomorrow I have my English test, which will conclude an entire trimester of various trips to hell and back. I also have my final vocal performance. Thursday has a Physics test at 8:30am followed by a Project Materials test at 10:30. I finish the week with a Calc II test and an American Government test. Sounds like buckets of joy…but not.

Times are a changin’

This past week has been rather busy. However, it has also given me a chance to reflect about the past four years the next four to six years. On Friday, I was able to spend a day at CSM and unless CSM falls off the face of the Earth, or CalPolybecome non-traditional, or Caltech suddenly becomes less liberal, Golden, Colorado will be my next stop. Then on Monday and Tuesday, the entire Senior class went to Camp Burton to discus graduation at Meany Hall. That sort of set into motion the idea that there really is only a limited time left. I think that changed the entire attitude of the Senior class. And now today, I’m working on the slide show for one of my buddies who’s getting married in 3 days!! So much has happened, is happening, and will happen over the few months, it’s going to be amazing. The farthest event that I’ve put on my calendar is starting college and that’s only 6 months away or so. I’m not even out of high school. Between now and then I have to:

  • Andy and Julia’s Wedding
  • Ski @ Whistler
  • Hike @ Canyonlands
  • Build @ Mexico
  • Finish School
  • Senior Project @ UW
  • Work on Graduation
  • Upgrade the Server Hardware
  • Upgrade the Server to W2K3 Server
  • Figure out long term plans for fergcorp.com and andrewferguson.net
  • Configure the entire network to either run by itself or remotely from my dorm in Colorado
  • Graduate
  • Say Goodbye
  • Day Camp
  • Clean my room
  • Pack
  • Go to Shasta
  • Migrate to Colorado

…among other things. And that’s just the major stuff I can think of right now. I’m almost afraid to blink my eyes because everything is going to pass by so fast. Ack.

Such a long week…but not

This last week has been perhaps one of the longest weeks in my life, especially weird considering it only lastedr 3 days. Finials were pretty much a non-event, Wednesday marked the half-way point of Senior year. That pretty much means I have about 5 weeks of “real” school left.

Hitting a wall

After almost three weeks of Christmas Break (officially called Winter Break), we finally went back to school today. I was really looking forward to school, but then I had English class. Ugh, I hate English, actually make that Romantic Literature. English is fine, for the most part, but I am not what you would call even remotely romantic…to any degree. So now I want to go back on vacation. On the plus side, the Vocal Concert is almost here (I’m singing in it). Expect pictures from that sometime Sunday night or Monday morning…hopefully.

Snow Day!!

Yesterday was a snow day. I had quite a bit of fun playing in the snow. I also ended up watching cars slip and slide as they drove up our hill. When I get my computer back in 13 days, I’ll upload them.

Today was a Slush Day. School was cancelled, again. Woo-hoo!
