Veteran's Day

Today is Veteran's Day (Observed) (hence the fact I am off from school) and I just wanted to say THANK YOU to all of the brave men and women that have fought to keep our freedom and our country safe. It means a LOT to me. Here's a special shout-out to my Grandpa Fry, who fought in Japan in World War II. Thank you so much!

Today I'm feeling kinda down. Maybe its just because yesterday didn't exactly go as I would have liked it to. But I guess things just happen the way they do for a reason so maybe it will all resolve itself within the coming week. I hope so. So today I'm just kinda in a "blah" mood. Its a good thing we don't have school today because I would have had to take a History test. And I never think straight when I'm down like this. (not that I ever think entirely straight, anyway) And the last thing I need is the guys that I'm competitive with over grades teasing me because I didn't get a 100, as I usually do. Although I'm glad to have some people to be competitive with. Competition always makes me work harder to achieve because I can't stand not being the best. Ah the joys of being a perfectionist and always trying to be perfect...
