I woke up to a pleasant surprise this morning, there's no school today because of the snow! I'm really happy that today's off because we were supposed to do a test today. So, this morning I just chilled and played on my iPad. Then I helped my mom clean out one of our closets. Soon, I'm going to go run our daily mile at the gym and do my requirements. Also, I'm thinking I will start working on another one of my essays, I already have 2 done. Tonight, we're going to go to the 6:00 and 6:45 class and maybe even help out for the first time!

I had to get up earlier than usual this morning because my sister had something to do starting at 7:30... But I took the extra time before school to study for a big Spanish test I had today. I feel pretty good about it. It was a normal day at school but really cold. Straight from school we went to the gym to run our daily mile. On our way home it started to snow lightly!!! I love when it snows. Afterwards I played some iPad and now I am going to do my sit-ups, push-ups, burpees, etc. Then I'll eat dinner and read my book about atomic habits. :)

Since there's no school today, I got to sleep in late. When I woke up, I watched a new tv show that I found called Surviving Summer. For breakfast I had a leftover brownie and at 10:30 we went to the orthodontist. After the orthodontist we went to the grocery store and got lunch. When we got home, I called my friend and played Roblox. Soon we're going to run a mile on the Greenway. For the rest of the day, I will probably draw and watch TV. Then we'll have dinner and since there's school tomorrow, I will clean up then go to bed.

When I woke up this morning, I was still a little sore from yesterday's pretest, so I just relaxed and watched TV all morning. We are about to go to the gym and run our daily mile. After, we're going to Birkdale to do some shopping at Barne's and Noble and hopefully get Starbucks. I'm glad we have tomorrow off of school because I have some last-minute studying to do for my Spanish test on Tuesday. Then we'll watch the football game, eat dinner and stay up late watching a movie. :)

1/18-Pretest day

Today was the pretest and I feel like I did pretty good. The push-ups and the V-sit-ups were the hardest parts for me, but I'll keep working on them. Overall, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be and I'm really proud of myself...however, I was super tired when I got home. I'm looking forward to relaxing for the rest of the day. :)
