Weekends Have Not Been My Thing
So last weekend I didn't have a great weekend. It started with the AP Test (thank goodness thats over!), then Saturday wasn't bad until I found out that one kid on my soccer team bruised his spleen and another kid dislocated his shoulder, followed by masses of drama that went throughout the day on Sunday. This weekend was pretty fun except the fact that yesterday I busted my phone, was kinda depressed, and hurt my manhood wakeboarding. Now today all I've done is mowed my lawn and played in a soccer game that we lost in. I scored our only goal and had another goal that went in but the ref said it didn't and we lost 2-1! Now I'm at home and I think that my parents are rather frustrated with me and I don't think that I'm going to be allowed to hang out with people tonight because of that.

AP Euro is Over! (well basically)
Today I took the AP European History Exam. It was long, mentally draining, and sucked. Overall, it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience though. Who am I kidding? I didn't like being shut up in a church taking a test from 11:30-3:30. The best part about taking this test though is that the rest of the year in that class should be a breeze. I just better pass to make sure that I get a good grade this term. (Oh and college credit would be nice) Well anyway, the test is over and I think I did pretty good on it. Now I just have to wait til the 3rd freakin week of July to find out!

Frustrations
So I've been frustrated with several things lately. First on the list is the AP Euro Test, of course, but there are still a few more.
Frustrations
1. AP Euro- AP Test Friday! What more do I need to say?
2. People- Some people have been driving me nuts lately. Once again, I don't think it is anyone that reads my blog.
3. Soccer- Ok I'm not frustrated at all with this one. I just wanted to take the opportunity to tell everybody about my two awesome goals on Saturday. One was a header and the other was off a corner kick and I was able to get my leg in front of it.
4. Eagle- I thought I was a lot closer than I really was. I could have it ready by tomorrow if I tried EXTREMELY hard, but I am not so sure that is going to happen even though I plan to work on it a lot tomorrow.
5. School Overall- My grades look the worst they have in a long time. This could be because I missed 3 days last week, but I don't think that is all.
6. iPod Game (Peggle)- K this is extremely dumb to be frustrated over and I'm not too frustrated over it, but the stupid game won't let play as far as I have gotten on it. Fun game though. (I know that was way dumb and you are probably thinking I'm the dumbest person on the planet right now but I don't care!)
7. Transportation- Only 1 month 21 days until I turn 16. 2 months 2 days until I'm done with my driving with an instructor.
8. Utah Jazz- They got their butts handed to them on a platter a week ago tomorrow. The Lakers (who they are playing right now) are also the team that I think they play the worst against in the league. Plus, I consider myself a pretty decently dedicated fan. (Of course, I'm nothing close to you and BYU Josh. ;) )
9. iTunes- The dumb iTunes Store doesn't have Albi the Racist Dragon on it! What kind of rip off is this thing?!

Mistakes
K so most of you have heard the story about how I managed to bust my phone at lunch one day. But that is only the start of some of the dumb mistakes I have made recently.
1. The phone- K quick recap. I'm standing behind Sean while he is eating and I'm talking to somebody while tossing my phone up and down like I always do. I got a little too distracted and managed to miss my phone once. Went for the saving grab as it plummeted straight at the ground. I was able to knock it but not grab it. Unfortunately, I some how knocked it right into Sean's pudding. He was glad that it took off all of his whipped cream, but my poor little phone didn't even manage to make it to my next class before dying. :'(
2. The headphone- So this one happened today and is eerily similar to the other one. I was standing in my kitchen helping prepare dinner by making the gravy. I was rocking out to a few of the new songs that I obtained over the weekend when my mom said something to me. I couldn't hear her so I plucked out my headphone and asked what. Plop! My headphone landed right in the gravy and I just started laughing because it reminded me of Experience #1. I wiped it off and checked to see if it worked... Nope. Now I will just have to live with music in one ear for a while.
3. The lunch- I was sick for the first 4 days of last week (counting Sunday). I came back to school on Thursday and Sam said he was going to go pick up some grub. Of course, he told me what he was going to get but it didn't seem to click in my mind that I might not feel great after eating it. Thats why I ate cookies and milk while still feeling a little sick and it might have affected my performance in my game that night. :0
4. Dreams- So this wasn't technically a mistake but they were definitely weird. This one would take way too long to explain so if you want more info just ask and I'm sure I can come up with a story that will blow your socks off.
5. Taken offense- I know this may sound absurd, but I consider this a mistake on my part. I believe that he shouldn't have said anything, but I agree with Elder Bednar when he talked about how we choose whether or not to take offense at things people say. I tend to make the wrong decision a lot, but this one stuck out in my mind. I feel like I need to protect the (somewhat) innocent still though so I shall not reveal his name, but it isn't any of you that read my blog at least somewhat regularly.
Ok so the only ones that were really decent were 1-3 and 3 was only ok. But you have to admit that #2 was pretty funny.
