Blah

Ugh-I keep forgetting to update this blog.  It's been over a year since my last post!  I doubt anyone even reads this anymore anyway...It's just that nothing exciting really seems to happen to me.  Just school woes, it seems.  Like today I got back a math homework assignment that I failed miserably on, and a social studies quiz that I didn't fare much better on (a D+).  Blah blah blah-di-blah-blah...

Tears immediately started to come to my eyes when I got each paper but I'm hoping that no one noticed.  I tried to hide my head in my arms.  Marina seemed to know that I was upset but I wouldn't tell her why when she asked.  She would probably just say that I need to ask for help and stay after school or come in early and such.  And that I should get over being afraid of my teachers because they're there to help us students succeed.

But it's so hard to ask teachers for help sometimes (actually MOST of the time) when you're shy and afraid of what others think of you.  I'm afraid that because I don't do well on my schoolwork and tests and projects a lot of times, that my teachers see me as a failure.  And sometimes I feel like one :(.  Part of me knows that I'm not a failure and that sometimes I can do well but there's always those stupid, negative thoughts.  And it doesn't help that I'm a procrastinator who thinks that school and homework are boring.  And I usually don't have good ideas for projects or even if I do, the execution of them is terrible.  I've had a couple of projects where I've done well, like my story project where I dressed my doll, Isadorah, as a pioneer named Lottie.  Actually she still wears her pioneer dress because it's her favorite.  But on the other hand I had to make a diorama one time and it came out horribly and I got a D on it.  Overall, I wish I had better ideas when it came to projects.

Anyway, in other news, I'm hoping to get a Mini Tenney with Christmas and birthday money that I saved.  Tenney looks a lot like me-blonde hair, brown eyes and freckles!  I haven't read her books yet so I can't really comment on them.  If and when I get her, she'll be my third Mini AG doll (Nellie was my first and Ruthie my second).

QOTD:
1)Which Mini AG dolls do you have?
2)What is the best school project you've done?  What is the worst school project you've done?
