Never forget. 8 years ago today. =[ I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember what I was wearing, what the weather was like...everything. Please say a prayer for all of those innocent victims who lost their lives 8 years ago today due to this horrific tragedy. Also, don't forget their families, who still live with this awful memory. Pray for all of us in the USA! We are all so fortunate to live in such a wonderful country. Let us all have hope, peace, and joy in the years to come.
Also, I forgot to add in my previous blog, that after school Wednesday, some of my friends and I went to see The Time Traveler's Wife. It was truly a deep and meaningful movie. I absolutely loved it! You have to go see it.
Today, I got my contacts fitted! I really like them so far. They are Acuvue Advance. I can see great! I did really well with getting them in and everything. I love my eye doctor. The whole office is sooo nice. http://www.gfeyeassociates.com/ = their website. I have Dr. Andrea Friedberg. I actually have to go back in a week. These are right now just trial contacts. I do think that they will be good though. =]
Anyway, take a moment of silence today to think about everyone affected by 9/11/01.
May we all have hope, peace, and joy!
With Love and Sympathy,
Amy

School has officially begun...
Hello guys!
My first day of school was Wednesday, September 9th. It was really good! We were only there for about 3 hours, so it was really easy. It was technically orientation and stuff. We hung out in homeroom, got our yearbooks & planners, had an hour meeting with the administration. (It kinda feels like I never left! Ha-ha. Summer went by so fast!) I am really excited for this year. Graduation date = 6/8/10. I can't believe it. - Sooo soon. I'll try not to rush it though! - That's what people keep telling me.
I also had to go in to school today. (For about 3 hours again.) Today was the Activity Fair for all of the new freshman, so all of us club officers had to be there. I am the VP of Photography Club. We set up our table (with all the other clubs) and told the freshman about the club and etc. A LOT of froshies signed up for it. I LOVE photo club. It's actually a really big thing at my school. We have a huge photo show at the end of the year. I hope that whatever college I go to has a photo club! Lol.
Well, tomorrow I have off. I made an appointment to get my contacts fitted. I'll be there for about an hour, learning how to put them in, take them out, and care for them. I'm excited to get them.
Ah, I really miss Summer '09 already. =[ It was such an amazing summer, and I am so sad it's over. It's starting to really hit me now. But, I do have a lot to look forward to this year. It's all good. =]
Take care!
Joy,
Amy

Last Day of Summer '09
Well, today is officially the last day of Summer '09. It was truly an amazing summer, and I am really sad to see it go. However, I am really looking forward to this coming year. Yay - Class of 2010! There is just so much to look forward to. =]
Also, tonight is the finale of season 1 of a new show on ABC Family, 10 Things I Hate About You. Next to Gilmore Girls, 10 Things is my FAVORITE show. I absolutely love it. It is so great. I've been waiting a while for a good new show like this to come out. I am so glad that it came. Go to abcfamily.com to get more information.
Have a happy September!
With Love,
Amy

Summer '09!
WOW! It has been a ridiculously long time since I blogged last. I am so sorry guys! Lol.
I do now even know where to begin. Summer '09 was absolutely amazing. Amazing - to say the least. I would definitely say that it was the best summer yet! I am sad to see it leave, but I am truly looking forward to the new year. I am finally a senior. =] It's such an exciting time in my life, and I just cannot wait to see how the journey unfolds.
I did A LOT this summer. (I will be very general here because there is just so much to say.)
I went to a youth scholar camp at Lebanon Valley College, which was an absolute blast! I met so many great people and learned what being a teacher is all about. It confirmed that teaching is definitely my calling. There is nothing I would rather do in the entire world. "It's not about teaching them how much you know, it's about showing them how much you care." I highly recommend the Daniel Fox Youth Scholar's Institute Camp at Lebanon Valley College to anyone. (It's one of those camps that you can pick a major and all.) This past summer was actually the 35th anniversary of the camp. It was just an incredible experience.
I also went to UNC Music Camp. It was nice. I met so many more incredible people. People in the South are so friendly, laid back, and very religious. I just can't get enough of the South. =] Camp was great, except for the nasty swine flu outbreak. (I lasted at the camp the entire time, however, I got the swine flu a day after I got home from the camp. But, thanks to lots of rest and Tamiflu, I am 100% okay. I am actually happy that I got it over with. =])
I also did a lot of college related things this summer. Spent the day with my friend, Wyatt, at UNC and met lots of great people there. Met a couple band directors at different colleges and etc. (Too much stuff to list! Lol.)
We also spent a wonderful week in August in Ocean City, NJ. - The only good thing about NJ! We had perfect weather - 85 and sunny every day! =] It was a great trip.
I did volunteer work this summer and I also worked a lot, which was really fun. I love Gracie's. =]
Anyway, that pretty much sums up my summer. It was crazy busy, but so so fun. Hope that all is well.
Yours truly,
Aim
