Today I just finished learning how to make and customize tables on the computer! They are pretty fun to create and now that I know exactly how to make them they're pretty easy too! Right now I am so beyond tired that I can hardly function and the best part about it is that I have a POLYATOMIC ION Quiz in Chemistry next period. Can you say fun! But today is better than yesterday. I was so tired from Plano and really did not want to come to school but I made myself because I had a test that I didn't even study for. Well anyway, I was getting ready in the bathroom and everyone else was still asleep when the phone rang. My mom got out of bed, answered the phone, and said "what" very loudly and sudden. I new immediately something was wrong but not sure of what. She went to go get the cordless phone and when I asked what was up she shoed me off so I figured someone was just sick. Five minutes later she came into the bathroom with tears in her eyes and said that Mr. Beal had died earlier that morning. I was so upset. Mr. Beal was one of my close friends and an all around family friends grandpa. He was an assistant soccer coach to my our team and I had known him since I was probably 5. He was like a grandpa to me! I literally cried until I got to school so my day was really terribly Horrible!

I have another softball tourney this weekend!!! We will be taking a four hour drive to PLANO tonight, leaving as soon as I get home from school, arriving there sometime after 7, then I eat, chill, talk and go to bed just in time for me to wake up at 5 because we have to be ready to go, in the lobby of our hotel BY 6:15. We just got knew uniforms...they are soooo awesome! Last weekend in Beaumont there were three wedding receptions- 1 Friday night and 2 Saturday. We were invited in to the one on Friday and no we did not know the people. The FOB was so funny. He looked like an older version of Kid Rock-including the long blond(his was gray) hair- in an all white outfit-suit shoes and du rag...yes I said du rag. He was quite a site and by the end of the night his white, untucked shirt was was half unbuttoned and he was disco dancing in the lobby where we were hangin' out. It was hilarious! but he was extremely nice. He asked us where we were from and why we were there and coincidentally, he's from Bear Creek so he knew exactly where we lived and his daughter, the one getting married, used to play select ball too. Can you say SMALL WORLD!!!! It was lots of fun.

OMG! This weekend I have a College Exposer Tournament for Softball in Beaumont and then another C.E. Tourney the following weekend in Plano! It's gonna be so much fun but I am going to be SOOOO tired. Besides the fact that I will be playing softball for the next two weekends I will also be playing double-headers this and next Monday night @ Baseball U.S.A. Hopefully my teachers don't give me a lot of homework or Ima cry! Last Saturday I went to see the Funny Shorts Plays at our school. I know like every person there, I felt so special! It was hilarious. Tears were coming to my eyes I was laughing so hard. After the plays I went with my friend Amanda to Mountasia with her church. We GoCarted( X-tra fun), Putt-Putted (I won!), played games (so awesome that combined we had less than 100 tickets), and did the bumper boats with a bunch of little boys we didn't know and they decided to "GET THE GIRLS!!!"(Not so fun). Then Amanda's sister Katie took me and another girl from thier church home an went the wrong way. In other words it was a very eventful night!

I just got through finishing up Lesson 4 which was all about working with a template... We got to do this lesson with our groups which was lots of fun! Having one person on either side of me made it a lot easier. We were able to answer each others questions and we moved really fast and smoothly because of it. Plus my group is all girls, Kristen and Tahra, which is WAY AWESOME!!!!

Interview ???

Hey It's Catie! My favorite type of food is probably chinese but I will pretty much eat almost any kind of food. My favorite kind of music is rock and I love Linkin Park! : ) I love to play softball but I like to watch Two and a Half Men on ABC. That show is hilarious but I also enjoy watching sports venues on t.v. when I can. My favorite subject would probably be math just because I'm really good at it but I also really like world history even though its probably my hardest class. I usually try to study for tests but its mostly just when I am completely lost. When we have reviews though I do complete them and look over them once or twice just to get it in my brain and an added bonus is that I have a really good memory. I'd really like to learn more about the different applications and how they work so that I will have some idea in the future. I'm hoping that getting to know these things will help speed things up! The work we do in our teams should probably be divided in a way that everybody does something and that something they do is something they know how to do as well as enjoy doing. I've always been told that I have great ideas (most of the time) and I'm also really smart. I do well in all subjects but I do prefer some over others and thats about all I can think of so yeah... TTYL!

I just finished Unit 3 and I am so tired. I had a softball tournament all weekend and played a double header against the St. Agnus Tigers and the Memorial Mustangs ( both were Varsity teams) at Baseball USA. : ) It was lots of fun and action packed but it was also tiring. I had to be at my tournament in Humble at 7:45 a.m. on Saturday and we didn't get home until 12:00 p.m. Then on Sunday we had to be back at the fields at 8:30 a.m. And Yesterday we played at 6:00p.m. and8:30 so I didn't get home until after 10:00. I plan to go home and take a nap after school... Now its on to Unit 4!
