Überlastung

Life goes on way too fast. One minute it's Summer and I'm staying up late and sleeping in, the next I'm in Economics class doing a Current Events report. Days begin to blur together and I have no idea what's going on.

So much stuff is happening tomorrow. My grade is going to attend the Equestrian Games (we're so lucky, it's been a long time since it's been held outside of Europe). I'll try to get pictures with my cell phone, but it might rain so I'm not sure how they'll turn out. And after that we're (the orchestra) is going to perform for the school board which is going to be televised. I also have to figure out where this one person (Rachel, I think her name is) lives so I can deliver something she bought from my school  to her. Then after that I'm going to finish the two projects for Mr. Newton's class. I'm kinda peeved that he assigned two at the same time, but he's an okay teacher most of the time. Probably my favorite if I had to pick. He also teaches Medieval Times classes and has awesome stories that he'll tell us. He reenacts battles for a hobby and he's died twice. The first time when he was a boy scout (or something of the sort) and he was struck by lightning and his heart stopped beating for a couple of minutes. The second when he was in the military and in an enclosed space. There was a fire and they put this gas which would suck out all the oxygen (killing the fire, and as it also turns out him . . . for a few minutes anyway). He's only gotten mad at us once, and I don't blame him. I didn't do it, but locking him out of the classroom is a bit extreme, don't you think?

Any who, wish me luck. =)
By the way the title means "overload" in German. Oh, and if you don't know them check out Hey Monday. Just discovered them and love their music. Have a great week!

100th post =)

Finally, I know. Super sorry for being the suckiest updater on blogger. Life has been absolutely crazy lately. I guess you could say that my parents are separating. I honestly don't know what I think of this. I mean, it's certainly not their first fight or the even the first time they've brought up divorce. But they never went this far into it before. I found out a couple of weeks ago that my dad was seeing someone. And even though I had never met her, I instantly hated her. It's confusing. I don't know why my parents try to understand me, when I don't even know what I'm thinking half the time myself. I suppose I'm afraid he'll leave us. That he'll go live with her and her children and then forget all about me and Riley, and Taylor and even Erin. I just. . . don't know.

On a better subject, my birthday's coming up (it's the 15th). I have to take a test that day that determines what school I can go to next year. Since I'm in advanced classes this year, I'm hoping I can get into Scapa ; it's a really slim chance though because you have to be in the 96th percentile to even be considered. So most days, I've been birthday planning, studying, and watching old episodes of Roswell (amazing show) on Netflix.

Okay, I've babbled enough. Onto the 100th post stuff. It's mostly made up of a bunch of pictures from this summer; what I've been up to.

 At the beginning of the summer, I dyed my hair blue. My hair looks like a mess in this picture (not to mention how pale I am), haha, sorry.

I babysat. . . a lot. (Dakota for the first two, Jacobi, Lily, Hailey, Atlas, Emmi)

I went to see fireworks on the fourth of July (it wasn't much, but still fun).

Movies with friends (I think we saw Shrek when we took this one, but we also saw Vampire's Suck).

I tried to figure out what the heck Riley was doing.

I got a tattoo (pshh, what do you mean temporary?)

I also joined Operation Beautiful.

I visited my grandparents countless times.

I went to the fair with my friend Rosa, too. Sorry this is the only picture I could get and it's all blurry

I went to my cousins birthday party (I know this picture is extremely small; sorry!)



I got to know my little sister Taylor a bit better. . . she frightens me. =)

Oh, and I was held at gunpoint. (blurry again, gosh my phone sucks. But it's Riley pointing a water gun at me if you can't tell)

Thank you for being so patient with me. I am a million times sorry that I couldn't get this out sooner. Hopefully I'll get back into the blogger pattern soon. Now I'm going to go. . . dance around in my pajamas to the Macarena? Pssh, no. I have to do Algebra. Oh, how I miss Summer. Lot's of love -Hannah

PS: Another sorry for the format. =/
