This is it...

I realize that probably no one will read this, with maybe the exception of Marc considering he is still blogging himself. I think it might be time to remove this here blog for the wondrous "interweb" (as Roro would call it). Although it is nice to have it, just to vent sometimes or to catch up on some random stuff that has happened to my beloved 5th period classmates.
Popsicle Stand. has not been updated in a long time, and that was only because i was livid with the media so i had to tell someone. As both of the co-creators of this, being me and mmr, are going to college, I'd be very surprised to see this updated anymore after this. Although it's not hurting anyone to not have an updated blog, it would be hypocritical for me to keep it seeing as I was one of the most adamant for Roro to update his when the posts started to slow down.
So this is it, everyone, this is the last post, or at least for a great while.

Thank You New England News Team.

So today's news was pretty interesting. A missile launched in North Korea both yesterday and today, which is being blamed on the US. Obama nominates Puerto Rican woman to Supreme Court. oh and...

BREAKING NEWS:
BIG PAPI DROPS TO THE 6TH SLOT IN TONIGHT'S BATTING LINE-UP.

There's something wrong here. Is the status of the redsox's DH "breaking news" worthy? Especially when it's surrounded by much more important, world-changing news?

Don't get me wrong, I'm quite a fan of baseball. But all that scrutiny I get for being a Yankee fan in New England just got interesting. Because there's no way I'm going to let this one go unnoticed.

it's been a while

Oh hey. It's been a while since I've posted. Time for an update? Alrighty, here goes. So I went to Europe, Greece and Italy to be percise. Amazing pretty much sums that trip up. Greece just smelt so good, I dont know what it is. I think it might be all the beautiful orange trees just popping up everywhere. The view from our hotel of the Acropolis, especially at night, was incredible. Italy...I want to move there. Especially Sorento. By far my favorite stop on the trip. The cool little bungalows we stayed in (which also smelt very good) were so cute, and then there's that night at the disco...Rome was amazing with so much architecture and history. Plus, it was cool to see some things we had learned about in AP Art History. Speeeeaking of which, AP tests are FINALLY done. It's like a huge weight is lifted off us and now we can just coast throguh the rest of the year, which is quickly coming to an end. It's weird because I am so pumped to graduate and for summer and college, but a part of me always hates when something ends. So it's bittersweet I guess. So I'm just enjoying every minute of it, which is really all you can do.

DC!

So over April Vacation I went to Washington DC for the first time ever. It was the most amazing place I've ever been. It's better than NYC, Boston, and Disney World combined. It wasn't until Tuesday that I really fell in love with it though. We got to see the Supreme Court in action. It was at that very moment that I realized DC is where I'm supposed to be. That is what I want to do. My mom always told me I can be whatever it is I want to be.. and well. That's it. So here it is, you guys, it's official. If I never become a supreme court justice, I will at least have a name for myself in the most amazing place in the nation.

i don't mind the wait

its feels like time is passing so quickly, its all going go by and i'm not ready. i mean, i'm pumped for college and something new and change and all that but everything just changed for me this year and again its changing. i was just getting used to everything, and now its going to pick up, move around, and change on me again. everybody wishes time would pass quicker, but me, i don't mind the wait. if we spend all our time wishing it would pass, then we miss whats happening now. and i know as soon as everything changes we're going to look back and wish we had more time. so thats why i'm enjoying the time thats left of this year, and making the best of it.

decision time.

So with the lack of getting into Brown and UVa, my choices are down to Clarkson, PC, and Suffolk. I have no intentions of going to Suffolk either, and they didn't give me all that much money, so that's out. I went to PC last weekend; it was nice. I'm not completely sold on it, but I went with my cousin who graduated there a while ago. Accepted students day is April 18th, so we'll see how that goes.

Clarkson, on the other hand, seems awesome! I'm going this weekend to officially view the campus and do all that fun stuff. I really hope I like the atmosphere because that could be the make or break part of the university for me. They have a ping pong club though, and I'm pretty sure that's all I needed to hear. (That's actually a lie because I absolutely suck at ping pong, but that's still wicked awesome.)

Any input?
