I know that I haven't posted in a while, but I've been busy helping my dad with yard work. Mostly picking up the clippings from his trimming the hedge. Also, yesterday one of Dad's old doctorate students-oddly enough the last one who actually managed to finish his doctorate, dissertation and all-and the doctorate student that is going to be starting in the fall came over to dinner, which was a lot of fun. 

On Monday, at my riding lesson, I rode in the outdoor ring for the first time since I started riding at Rocking Horse Equestrian Center (my stable) one year ago. It was a lot of fun and also very odd because the outdoor ring is about one and a half times larger than the indoor ring, so I had to half-halt a lot, even though I was riding Rosie.

On Thursday I went to the Fourth Annual Homeschooler Not-Prom with a bunch of friends. Basically all that we did was dress up in pretty clothes, stand around at the Webster Arboretum and take pictures, then go to Bruster's and get half-off banana splits by bringing our own bananas. It was a lot of fun though.

I haven't done a lot of stuff other than that this week, except watching the Olympics once they started.

School and stuff

I know that I haven't posted in a while and I'm sorry, but this Monday I got accepted at SUNY Brockport so I've kind of had a lot going on dealing with that, plus figuring out where I'm going to live, because if I live on campus it will have to be in a forced triple (a double with three people living in it) which doesn't sound like all that much fun, or I can be in a car for at least two hours every day while commuting, both of which sound like absolute hell only about 5,000 times worse. But my friend Alex is staying with the mother of a friend of her godfathers and if their is an extra room I might be able to stay there as well because it's only a couple of minutes away from campus.

I should go figure out what books I need to get for the classes I'm taking and see if I can get them at a store a bit closer to home than the store on campus.
