Extremely irritated.
Well I started out in a good mood. Now I'm just annnoyed to heck because my blog never cooperates. I'm trying to update pictures and things and its not working. And it NEVER posts when I try to post. It just keeps saying its pending posting, as if I've set the time ahead of what it is. Which I have not. Well I'm going to get in the shower. Maybe my blog will cooperate more when I'm out and back in a better mood.

School is SO time-consuming.
It REALLY is. Even before it started, and it was just getting close, I had no time to do everything I wanted.
Kind of ridiculous how much less time you have when nine hours of your day are gone. It isn't even just those hours while you're at school. Its all the rest, too. Because, besides the obvious studying and homework and such, you're tired before you walk in the door, have food to eat and things to do outside of my internet-social life.
I have like no writing time left. My writing has drastically fallen behind. Blogs, novels, short stories, things for my awesome writer's club at school. (Not litterally MINE, just the one I'm in.) All of it.
I've hardly read, either. Which is why what I'm reading and going to read hasn't changed (if you've noticed the books on my home page). I actually finished Dust to Dust a long time ago, and it was great. I loved it.
But, weirdly, everytime I tried to find out when the next one, which is actually talked about on the last page of Dust to Dust, comes out, I just kept getting "July 2010". So, then the next thing I know, its like the next one doesn't exist by the time it is August, still have heard nothing about it. Not on a Barnes and Noble website, not on hers (Graham's, I believe my mom checked it), just nothing. I haven't looked for it sicne August. Maybe I should do that..
Never got around to Sweet Little Lies, either. STILL. I have too many books on my bookshelf I need to read. I started a book called The Winter Road by Terry Hokenson. I had checked it out and was just way reading it too slowly and had to return it when I was only about half-way through. I'll have to get it again. But I just started reading Monsters of Men (Chaos Walking trilogy #3 by Patrick Ness) yesterday!!! Love it, of course. Crazy, too. I want to finish it NOW but don't ever want to, either. :/
Back to my main point, about school being a time-suck. It really is, and it really SUCKS.
My appearently so busy life outside of school? Homework, football games, friends, homecoming this weekend, you know, all the things teenagers normally do. I am excited for homecoming, though. Even though since it's my third year like none of my friends are going. LAME! :/
And, lastly, my life IN the time-suck? School is pretty great this year, if I'm being totally honest. No, that does not mean I've suddenly lost all rational thought and become a homework-junkie. I just have fun classes and great teachers. Junior year (eleventh, not counting kindergarten, for those of you who may actually be reading this and not understand the term) is turning out to be pretty awesome so far. :)
Well.. Hm. I don't think I ever posted about my 16th. Its been so long I can't remember. Sixteen is really just a number. Its hard to explain but its like I'm not even an age. Just me, Sammy. I hardly ever think about the fact that I actually AM sixteen already. I don't feel younger, but I don't feel 16, either. Like I'm a number after fifteen and before sixteen, haha.
Samhain is coming up, which is awesome! Gotta love the amazingness of Halloween. Well. I think this is good enough for a long-awaited post from Samatha's Blog. Signing off!
