Who besides me is DESPERATELY WAITING FOR THE FIRST DAY OF.... [Archive] - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I just think the coming off fall is kind of a downer. It starts getting darker more quickly, the weather starts getting colder, and the green leaves go bye-bye. And then for some of us there is the start of SCHOOL! I think I equate fall with school actually, so maybe when I am finished with school, the start of fall will stop being "such a shock." I doubt I'll ever really like it though. I am the summer type... with the long days, and hot weather.

The only good thing about fall for me is the baseball playoffs. The new tv schedule is okay, but I never actually look forward to it.

Really? I hate it when the days start to get shorter! But, I like it when its dark in winter because then I've been used to it for a while. So I like winter better than fall. Seeing the change in fall just bugs me. I'm weird. :crazy:

The leaves don't go away right away. They turn pwetty colors...orange, yellow, red....

It's amazing. I have oak trees all over in my town and it's beautiful during the fall time!

I'm ready for fall! Halloween! Football games! Marching band! It doesn't get too cold or too hot. It's perfect!

I didn't say the leaves go away. I said the GREEN leaves go away. :p They do change into some awesome colors, I just prefer green. I'm weird, I know.

Clarinet.

I tried out for flags this year, but unfortunately I didn't make it. It kind of made me angry because my one band director was a judge and is in charge of that, she said I did a really good job! It makes me wonder how close I was. =x

No kidding! Well that is a bummer then. Maybe you'll want to try again next year? At my school it seemed like only seniors got to do flags.

I won't be able to try out next year. I'm going to be a senior this year! :lol:

Oh well, I am just glad I tried out. It was fun learning. I just wanted to shake my booty. I love to dance. But being my last year as a clarinet in high school, that's just as satisfactory!

I always do. I started playing the clarinet when I was in the 6th grade. I started going on more band trips starting my freshman year. In middle school, you just go somewhere once a year. High school band has always been fun. My sophomore year we went to Dallas, Texas. I will never forgot that trip! I don't think we'll be going out of state though going into my last year of high school. I am not for sure if I want to play my instrument in the college level. Who knows what I'll decide in the next few months!

I really like to travel. Hopefully after I graduate, I'll be able to travel lots of places. I want to see the world and learn different cultures...and go to fun places...and meet lots of people, of course.

Yeah. In my last post when I said, "you'll have tons of fun" I made it sound like you've never done it before. :crazy:. But yes, you'll have tons of fun AS USUAL." :) That is so cool getting to travel like that! And it sounds like you continue to do so after graduation. Fun, fun, fun. I want to be a traveler too, but it looks like I'll be a' waitin'. Unless I take up the opportunities during school vacations.

My only problem is I'm going to have to save up money and have some good friends to come with me. It's not always fun being alone, you have to have a few friends to travel with. :cool:

I think it be really cool to visit Spain. I have a friend there, plus I do speak some Spanish. I wonder how'd I do with my Spanish speaking. It help in speaking though. I am always watching Spanish tv shows to see if I comprehend the words or if I watch tv shows that have a couple of words in them. I'm like oooo I know what that means! I love doing that for some odd reason.

Oooh, Spain is definitely on my list of places to go. Crossing my fingers the I'll get to see Europe in my 20s. I am horrible at speaking spanish. I used to try and watch some of their goofy soap operas with the closed captioning on, and I still can hardly figure out what they're saying! I didn't take enough spanish I guess. I wish they'd have a french channel. French is my thing, although I speak it horribly too! 3 years of it and I still don't know hardly anything. Just what I want... go to France and speak my horrible French to the people so they can hate another "crazy American." :lol:

I took one year of French. I forgot mostly everything in there. I just know Oui. I hope I spelled that right. :lol: I'll be taking my third year of Spanish this year. I think I do a pretty good job at it and plus I love my teacher. My favorite thing are always the skits! I dressed up as Christina Aguilera and said "Dirty" in Spanish at the end. It's "Sucio" I thought it was a pretty silly thing at the end. My teacher thought it was so great cause I stuck my butt up at the same time. But it was this talk show thing. "Conan" interviewed me off course, since I'm Conan obsessed. The whole thing was in Spanish. I even recorded myself being an announcer in Spanish while the Conan theme song played.

Our teacher tells us about all her trips all over Europe and places. I am so envious of her because she goes to these great places. I love how she talks about France though. Cause she has met some pretty rude people there. :rolleyes: Which sucks that the French people have to be like that.

I remember watching this one show on TV and it was nothing but the French language. It was weird how I could recognize some of those words in there, but I think either French is based on some Spanish or the other way around. Some of the words are the same.

Yep, you spelled oui right! That's cool you get to do skits in spanish. LOL about Christina Aguilera! We rarely did skits in my foreign languages classes. I took German too, but only for half a year. I would like to take that more too, but I may end up taking spanish in college because it's fun. At my high school the French/German teacher (She taught both) would take students to Europe every other year. I could have had my chance then to go! But I didn't really want to go "as a school" thing. Both my high school and college teachers talked about how rude the people in France can be. And both teachers were originally from Europe, so they really knew what they were talking about. And of course, us Americans know how they can be. :rolleyes:

There is this show on PBS called "French in Action" and they air it at like 5 AM on Wednesday nights here. I try and watch it, but don't get very far! It's suppose to be a teaching program, but they go so fast! And there is no english translation. I'll need some good translation books if I go to Europe someday. :lol: I think my favorite country to visit would be England. But then I want to see them all! Well, except for some of the eastern countries--those I could do without.

This year, I think I'll have to take a skit in for competition. When you are in higher/college level Spanish you have to be in some of the competions mandatory for a grade I think. Last year, we could enter contests and didn't have to participate (since I was in earlier learning one). I entered art. I drew this little mexican dude cartoon with a sunglasses wearing cactus. I think a drew a horse too. I am not for sure. I don't have the drawing with me since my teacher has it. I didn't win anything though! Because in this competition different language arts people participated. I love foreign languages. I think it would be cool to learn a dead language like latin or gaelic. You could talk and talk....no one would have no idea what you were saying. I think that would be a lot harder to learn though! I might just get a tattoo in latin (find out what it means first haha). Then, I wouldn't tell them what it meant! Muhaha!

I think that's the show I watched the other day. But it seemed to me to be more in the afternoon. It seemed to me like it was a show from the 80's. All these teens/one kid would have a conversation in French with tea and biscuits. Then, this newscaster guy would talk all in French. I forgot the title, but that's what I remember.

Yeah, I think you are thinking of "French in Action." It came out in 87. I remember watching it way back then and the part where they freeze the person over and over, as they repeat a sentence, would freak me out. LOL. There is this one grandma type lady on there sometimes... ewww scary. And the newscaster guy ain't so swift himself. :lol:

Learning a dead language would rule! I am such a goof ball. I want to learn ALL different languages! I know I probably won't tackle a new one that I haven't already started, but still. And gaelic would be awesome. My name, Cashodeen is suppose to be a gaelic word, but what word, I don't know! LOL. My grandpa who was irish (he was born in the U.S. though) would say it. I should have asked him what it meant! I'm too chicken to get a tatoo, but if I did, that type of one would definitely be awesome.

Ok yeah, the repeats did scare me too!

Yay for Irishness. My great-grandparents were like full blooded Irish. I want to know more about my family. My cousin is making a family tree/heritage book of where all our family came from and such. When I turn 18 in March, I want to get my belly button pierced. And I want at least two tattoos. The latin phrase would be cool and then I want either a dolphin or fairy on my lower back. I don't know where'd I put the latin phrase? Below the fairy/dolphin maybe. I just want to try things out. My whole point on life is to not regret things I do or not do. I want to be able to say I tried everything. I want to just be able to do all the things I can. You know? I'm one of those girls who just goes out for adventure, I guess.

Okay, the Lions? Ouch. No offense, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for them to make it to the superbowl. :rolleyes: I think college football is much more exciting. GO SPARTANS!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love fall, it's my favorite season - but I'm in no hurry to see it. I've got to get all my papers done first, plan my trip to Denmark, pack up, move out of my apartment, fly to Pennsylvania, then make it back to Lansing, move into my new apartment, plan my schedule for next year, and THEN it can be fall :lol:

Have you ever thought about being home-schooled? I am, It's a lot better than getting up every day, and going to school.

I can't wait for fall! I hate summer weather!

I for one also can't wait for Fall to get here, because of football starting, I don't care if its highschool, college or pro football it can come any faster, but hey the first pre season game starts a week from tomarrow at 4 A.M. central time, between the Jets and Buccaneers, when they play in the American Bowl in Japan, man I wish it was August and September already!

Yeah, but you'll eventually have to get used to getting up everyday and going somewhere--whether it's college or work. I know being in home school you get to put that kind of schedule off, but you still get to look forward to it someday! ;)

Don't you ever sometimes get bored being home schooled? If people who are home-schooled can still mantain frequent contact with their peers, them I say, go for it. But as a rule, I think home school sucks.

*hiss*

I'm a good 14 year old tho! *big innocent smile*

I don't want fall. I like summer. I don't like skool. I like vacation time! This year's gonna be craziness...screw me for being smart...too many damn advanced classes.

Lordy...Monday's my physical...that means skool's even closer. *screams*

Oh well...Monday night I'll be hearing Clay sing (while I'm in pain from my shot earlier that day)

It's all good...;)
