A Break, Finally

I have not written in what, a week? Well anyways, it is finally Winter Break! I'm so happy. Just to clear everything up, I was failing my computer class, but I brought my grade up pretty well. Of course, the best I am really hoping for is perhaps a C+? I would be amazed if I got higher, and infinitely grateful as well.
I finished 1984! I do not want to spoil it for anyone so I can't say anything about the ending though. Let it suffice that it is an amazing book, and an amazingly depressing one as well.
Today, the weather was awful, but my dad obliged and drove me to take a test so I could get my learner's permit. I can legally drive as long as someone over the age of twenty-one is with me!
I have been having major sleep problems this past week and a half or so. My personal problems have all been fixed, so much as problems can be, so I do not know what is keeping me up. I hope this break will let me sleep. Merry Christmas, or happy holidays!

Word Overuse

First of all, please let me apologize for the extreme overuse of the word "student" in my previous post. It bothers me enough that I would go back and edit it, but... Yeah, I'm pretty sure that is not going to happen.
I would have posted more recently, except that I have had some unfortunate personal developments. That is just nerd-girl speak for saying I messed up. I hate when something goes wrong and I absolutely know that it is all my fault. It is even worse when several things happen at once that you directly caused. I guess everyone is bound to mess up, I just wish I would be exempt from such foibles. I honestly do not care if someone else messes up, even if it directly affects me, because for some sick reason I feel better knowing it is not my fault. But no, this time I can only blame myself. *Sighs dramatically*
Anyways, if I wanted to subject people to my whining, I would have made a LiveJournal. Did you know that if you slam your hand into a locker hard enough, you can shatter rings that you are wearing? For the longest time I couldn't figure out what my ring was made of, but it seems to be plastic. The ring was pretty sturdy, until I, you know, slammed it against a locker and had it explode in my face.
So, despite my marked aptitude for not doing anything in school and having rather high grades, I was informed by my Computer Applications teacher that I'm in danger of perhaps failing that class. I will admit, I am not always amazing when it comes to technology, but I am fairly competent. The only probable reason I can find for me failing is that I'm bored out of my mind, quite possibly to the point of hallucination, and am therefore a little distracted during that class. This, however, may just be projection on my part. The point is, though, that I need to go to school early tomorrow.
Goodnight, and don't go slamming your hands into lockers!
