15 Years Completed. 1 Day Left.

I started Buckley in Beginners when I was 3 years old. Today is my last day of Senior year at Buckley. This feeling is indescribable. I see Buckley as a second home, a place that I can feel comfortable at while still gain the knowledge to succeed in life. Buckley has sculpted me into who I am today and for that, I am so thankful. I know I will often visit Buckley to pay back the respect that it deserves for guiding my life into the right direction. I am not saying "goodbye" now because I know I will just say "hello" in the future when I send my kids here. So, Buckley, I say "thank you for everything you have ever done for me. See you in the future."

Why do these computers take so long to start?

You need to do your homework that is due next period but you can't because you dont have your computer with you. You realize that there are computers available in the library so you run over to "check one out". You get one and press the power button. Three minutes later, the computer you "checked out" gives you the grey "log in" pop-up. You type in your username and password and hit enter. Your homework is now due in 10 minutes. You are waiting for the computer to load. Four minutes later you are still waiting. Your homework is now due in six minutes. You start to think of "good" excuses to tell your next teacher. All of a sudden, that little grey box shows a message: "Applying your personal settings". You get a sign of relief. "PHEWFFFFFFFF". You think to yourself, "Finallllllllly." You then realize three minutes later that the little message stating "Applying your personal settings" is THE most decieving message that you have ever read. Three minutes until your homework is due and the computer actually logs you in. You double-click the "Microsoft Word" logo with a slight hope you finish your homework in time. The computer freezes.

Senioritis 2.0

This blog covers exactly what I was talking about in my first "senioritis" blog. I am sitting in the Senior Courtyard without a clue of what I want to do today. "Senioritis" is a feeling that I can't explain. However, the proper definition seems to be presenting itself on the tip of my tongue. I hope a blog in the near future defines this feeling/distraction known as "senioritis".

Senioritis

I don't really know how to define "senioritis". Words such as "lazy", "uncaring", and "indefferent" all hint at the definition but none of them truly capture the real meaning. What amazes me most is that I am fully aware that I have "senioritis" but there is nooooooothng I can do about it. Some very smart doctor somewhere needs to make a vaccine to cure this awful yet unbelievable feeling. SENIORS '11.

Rain = Pain

As you can probably tell from the title of this blog- I don't really like rain. However, I love snow. To me, rain ruins almost everything. Ironically and realistically, though, rain brings life and gives water to many in need. I like warm and sunny weather so when it rains, I get upset. I guess I'm just stubborn to not appreciate rain... Kind of like technology... :/

I am a technologoholic.

To be honest, I cannot picture my life without technology. I can say, realistically, that I use some form of technology every 10 seconds. I know that I take technology for granted. I rarely appreciate the greatness of my smartphone or my computer, yet I am on at least one at all times of the day. As I am writing this blog, I am starting to realize that the little things are what amaze me. Checking the clock: A process that is second-nature. I do this so often, but have NEVER taken the time to really think about it. I know, that last sentence was funny... Anyway, how would I post this blog without technology? I would not be able to. Unfortunately, my life revolves around techonology. I am a technologoholic.
