About Me...Continued

Okay, so the general information I think all of you got (my name, where I am, my interests, etc.) in the "About Me" section of this blog page.  So far, you know that my name is Olivia, I am currently in Texas, and I love to dance (alot).  I'm currently a fish (freshman) in high school, but I do have an older sister (senior) that drives me to school everyday ( Just not this week because the five minutes it rained monday morning, we were going down the Jester hill (a really, really, really big hill) and my sisters care slid when she put on the brakes and we did a 360 and crashed into the guardrail.  It was kind of scary, and we got to school late, but by miracle a huge rock stopped us from going over the guardrail :] ). 
As I said (multiple times) before, I love to dance, and am involved in my studio's amateur dance company with Allison (who is also doing this blogging project).  Reading is also one of my favorite things to do, but with all this homework plus dancing, I don't really get to read much.  So far, I'm most likely failing a lot of my classes (I'm not usually like that) with all the Pre-AP homework and dancing and church stuff, but hey, it can only get better. 
 I live in a house on a street (I'm not telling you which house or what street) two houses down from my grandparents with two cats, two dogs, a little monster (our dachshund puppy), my mom, my dad, and my sister.   My church youth group is like my second family, so I (try to) go to as many church things as I can.  My mom used to teach three-year-olds and my dad is an engineer at Polycom (the place that makes triangular phone conference things).  My sister is extremely intimidating if you're and aspiring artist and/or writer,  and she is currently trying to find a college to go to next fall.  So that pretty much sums it up for the "family" portion of this about me section. 
Anyway, on October 25, 1993, I was born into this world in the Stanford hospital near Palo Alto, California.  We moved to Texas for my dad's job when I was one, and decided to stay, so here I am.  I can be a spazz sometimes when I'm excited, and I tend to be (unintentionally) loud, especially with my friends, which is not really a good thing.  I guess I'm a good girl in the classroom, though (hopefully).  I freak out about my grades, and I'm a perfectionist, which is definitely not a good thing when your in highschool. Hey, I only said I was a perfectionist, not perfect.  
I guess this is the end of my little "get to know me" section, but if i remember anything,  I'll post it or something.  Until then....

Wow Olivia. You have a wholelot to say about yourself. Texas is really hot and humid and I really hate how it never rains because one of my favorite things to do is go outside barefoot and stick my tongue out at the rain, but my mom's a doctor and says that's unsanitary. Anyway, I'm also a freshman at Anderson Highschool and have a younger sister, but seeing that you have an older sister sounds absolutely horrible and repulsive at the same time. I can barely stand my sister and she's only 7 years old. That sounds like a miracle that you and your sister were not severely injured with tha 360 crash into the guardrail. I don't really think that it's safe for your sister to drive you because I really don't want anyone to get hurt. I would probably end up really dizzy and petrified if that ever happened to me because I'm insanely sensitive to motion. I even hate rollar coasters, therefore, I am not a normal teenager. I love watching people dance merely because I can't dance although I do recall dancing at a studio when I was 6. It was held at a church, but I quit because no one would be my friend. I was a very limber child then. I love to read as well, but Pre-AP homework is very overwhelming especially BIOLOGY, but I love this class. One of my favorite books is Guenevere Queen of the Summer Country, you should try reading it sometime if you're into the whole suspense, mystery, climax, plot sort like I am. It's a sappy romance novel, but I love it and could read it 5 times without ever getting tired of it. Your sister is intimidating...my sister is intimidating because she's the perfect little genius. I'm sorry to hear that your sister is going to college very soon...you will miss her. I , too, am a perfectionist.

Hey Olivia, I don't think we actually "met" but I think we are in the same english class. I think its really great the you dance, I love to dance too, but I haven't found anywhere to take classes yet. Well, I'm a freshman at Anderson too, and i know what you mean, the homework is A LOT! I think my grades are slipping too, I'm not usually like that either. But I think its happening to almost all the freshman. Thats incredible that you got out of that accident ok, that must have been scary! Well maybe we'll see each other in school on Monday. I'm happy that I know someone that like to dance now!

Love your "about me" section olivia!!!!!!!! I think it's awesome! you did a better job explaining yourself than I explained myself! I'm glad that you survived the crash because if you didn't we'd have to redo all of the formations for ADW (dance) ha ha ha I'm just kidding, I'm glad you survived for more reasons than that, but no one else will find that funny except for me, but then again it's hard to use sarcasm in a blog. Well,
talk to you later!

PS I don't think your sister is that intimidating. She seems nice to me!
