Christmas Break

My Christmas Break was pretty much the same as usual. Opening presents on Christmas day, hanging out with family, visiting relatives from Atmautluak,  watching the fire works during New Year's day, and reading an interesting book over the break. I forgot to mention going to Slaaviq. 
Of all these events over the break I remember the most is spending my time at Atmautluak for over a week. Every single night I stayed up late with my cousin Aaron just killing time talking about what we did while we were young punks and what we remembered the most. Most times it would be casual talks.... nothing personal. Aaron is pretty much good at making someone irritated by just reminding the embarrassing moments to a person. That is what he did to me a lot. One time we were just talking and her mom came in, he asked me if I liked one of his friends from another village. My aunty got curious about it and payed attention to our conversation. Of course my cousin knew I was seeing another guy. I was speechless and embarrassed. I didn't say anything about it after. Couples of days after, Aaron's friend called me (the one Aaron asked about if I liked him) and my aunty answered the phone. My aunty was like "Aan, it's your boyfriend calling". How embarrassing. I was not going out with that boy in the beginning. Aaron is pretty much good at confusing people by asking crazy questions. Although I had a blast spending time with him over the break. He made my Christmas break more interesting. 
Anyway, I'm glad to be back in school and trying my best to get good grades to be eligible to play basketball. Happy New Year everyone!!!!

You don't need to be perfect!

When it comes to boys... I need to be perfect on my make-up. Of course! I have to look decent. Not that I want all guys to like me the way I look.. 
Anyways, I need all my class grades to be A's. I can't help to get a B or a C in any of my classes. I want a perfect A. ONLY A's. I can't juggle with my grades since I don't want to screw up my graduation year next school year. Well.. I am a junior this year. I have a GPA of 4.0 average. I want to be proud of myself with my grades. Plus scholarships look for good grades and GPA, if I'm not wrong. 
Couple of weeks ago.. I finally got a B in Personal Life Skills class. I was upset with myself. As I read through my eligibility form.. there was a note from my teacher and it said "You don't always have to be perfect!" 
I realized then.. I'm so up tight with my grades this year and anxious about them. I seriously need to lighten up! Well.. two weeks ago was the first day of basketball practice and had morning practices with volleyball. 6:30 in the morning! 
Of course I'm worried about my grades and Oh well.. I guess I'm not perfect!

How do you work this?!

This is my first time getting a blogger. I don't know how to work this thing but I'm having fun. My question is why our teachers made us students sign on this page.. hmmmm. But I think it's better than "hoverspot," I don't have anything else to say.
