Exactly 41 days until my 18th birthday! :)

All of a sudden I found myself thinking sociologically when I was sitting in a desk at Geneva High School on Saturday morning. I was trapped in a classroom with 14 different people I did not know. I was attending a driving course called "Alive @ 25" because back in September of 2010 I got a speeding ticket. This class was at 8am and ran until noon. Anyway, while sitting there listening to other's stories of why they were required to attend this course, it totally reminded me of the movie The Breakfast Club we watched in class! I was brought to one classroom with a group of people I didn't know and we all shared stories of why we were there. It reminded me of the part in the movie when they all get together and shared their stories! Some people were at that class because they didn't completely stop at a stop sign, or they ran red lights or they failed to use their turning signal. Others, like me for example, were there because they got a speeding ticket(s). Just like in The Breakfast Club, everyone was in Saturday morning detention for several different reasons.

This is the story of a girl who cried a river and drowned the whole world!

All of a sudden I found myself thinking sociologically when I was enjoying my two days off because we got too much snow! Actually I don't know if I can say I found myself thinking sociologically, but I was definitely thinking about sociology class! Since we got too much snow that nobody could really do anything or go anywhere, I decided to start doing a puzzle with my younger sister Alice! She is 12 years old and starting and finishing a 300 piece puzzle with her really gave us some bonding time! And I was happy because I always find myself busy, busy, busy with work and school and schoolwork. So I'm not only glad that we didn't have school for two day, I'm also glad I got to spend some quality time with my family. :)

Also, I just want to say I am really excited to get our surveys back so we can pass them out! I can't wait to see the responses of teenagers about their reactions to theft! Oh, and I can't wait for the [second] weekend!
