Move Along

The cheerleading competition was a blast yesterday. Erica's team made it to the finals, and then came in 6th out of 18 teams. Not too shabby. The team that won ended up being the HS that is our school district--where our kids would go if we still live here when we have kids. Interesting.

Next weekend is the competition on home turf--my old high school. Troy and I were planning to attend POC's next weekend up at JMU(the big HS marching band competition), but now I really want to go see Erica cheer again. We're thinking about doing a double header. Harrisonburg in the morning/early afternoon then Roanoke for the evening. We'll see. That's a long day with A LOT of driving. 2.5 horus to H-burg, then 1.25 to Roanoke, then 3.5 back.

I have my big final this week. I mean, we have tests everyday, and then a final every other week, but this is the big culmulative final. We had one I think two months ago, and it was crazy. If you don't pass, you don't come back. They actually have us take it, then kick us out of the building and don't let us come back until they grade them. You see your grade...if you passed, you stay and go over the test, if not, bye bye. It's a little harsh. We started out with 50 students, we're down to 40 now, and expecting to drop down to 35 with this next final. Fun times. I have absolutely NOTHING to worry about, but it's just interesting. I also love that we're having a speaker come on Wednesday to talk about how to effectively take tests. We have been in school for 13 months! Why didn't we have this back at the beginning????? Haha. Retards.

Anywho, I'm going to go finish cleaning the kitchen. I've been trying to unpack stuff still from our first wedding shower....well, rather trying to rearrange stuff so we have room for the new and better stuff. ;-)
