Oh, Dear WASL, You Finally Did Me Some Good

Hey everybody!
Seems I haven't made a "real" post in a while ... I dunno ... seems like there are a lot of pictures and a lot of videos and not a lot of words on my front blog page :D

So today at my high school the upperclassmen are taking the Washington Assessment of Student Learning (WASL) in Science. Us freshman are too cool to take the science WASL, so we all got to stay home while the upperclassmen take the test, and then come to school at eleven o'clock when regular classes start again.

... actually, our teachers and administrators assumed so many of us freshman would fail the science WASL that it wasn't even worth giving us the test, and that's why we aren't taking it. But we are still pretty cool. And I still got to sleep in until eight o'clock on a Thursday, so, hey, I'm not complaining. I've taken this test every year since, like, third grade, and I think this is the first time I've ever looked forward to it ... ;)

So I've just been chilling out this morning. I fed the horses in the morning on a school day, which is unusual; usually my mom covers the AM feeding during the week. I also got to have a real breakfast for once, too; toast & jam with milk and a mini orange. Yummy! <3 Now I'm here, blogging, because I can.

Life's been pretty awesome for me lately. I'm doing my best to prepare for my Arabian "A" circuit debut, which is next weekend ... ! My first western pleasure rail shirt came in the mail a few days ago, and it is simply stunning! Black base, with orange and gold details. Plenty of rhinestones, naturally. We bought me a black hat at Wilco yesterday and so now one of my western outfits is almost complete ... we're just waiting on my chaps to come in the mail, and I need to pick up a new belt, too. One that can accommodate my buckle from the High School Equestrian Team. Someday I'll need to get black show pants, too, but for now a pair of black breeches underneath the chaps will serve the purpose. I'm super excited about my breed show debut ... but really nervous, too. I know it will be a lot of fun, win or lose!

So, yeah. I should probably sign off and go get ready for school. All three hours of it ... woo hoo! =D
Later!
