lol I think that counts! My favorite name is Piper then Phoebe. Last year at conformation we had to chose a conformation name and I was gonna choose Phoebe because there is a saint phoebe, but then I decided that I should use a saint that was more widely known so I chose Brigid. Now I wish I had jusy picked a name and I had picked Piper.

I hate choosing conformation names! Choosing a highschool to go to isn't easy! Luckily I always wanted to go to this one h/s and I got in!

my world is very small(well the island that i was at was) and when i was getting into high school there was just this one school where everyone who graduates there go to, it's this whole line from elementary to high school lol well it was more like 2 high schools but mostly the same thing
although i moved and then my parents choose my school, but thats not the point lol but i was really pissed since i already did everything all i had to do it pay the tuition and i can go, i even spend a freaken saturday morning taking a placement test, which by the way I never even seen the results since i decided not to go that day when they made our their schedules(it was really cool how they got to choose their own schedule, they just had a list of classes they had to or could take and they just made it work, i heard it was really hard though and classes were filling up fast lol)

for my school, it is REALLY competitive and about 10,000 a year, and rising since i am a freshie.....but you had to do teh shadow day and an interview, which was easy, abnd then i had to take the entrance exam on a sat.....got our letters, and then had to go to a placement test for foreign language and math....and then we had a scheduling day....they place us and do our shceduling...and my school has phases....i guess it would be the equivalent to like remedial, reg., honors, ap, etc.....2-5, 3 and 4 being like the norm, 5 really high, and 2 remedial....cept my school only accepts like really smart ppl kinda.....VERY HIGH standards, so like our phase three is a reg. level at most other HS. but like our scheduling day they find out our swimming ability, and basically just tell you what classes your in....thats why we have 20 min. mods instead of 40 m classes....so sometimes i just have a 20 min, free, stuff like that....but thats usually when i have a three mod class....not too often ok if you got that, i congratulate you, cuz i started to confuse myself oh and just FYI, its an all girls school.....private...uniforms, all that fun stuff. And we have to wear saddle shoes. But like everyone in my area knows my schools uniform, cuz it is very distinct. Most the schools in my area have like a plaid skirt, white oxford, and a blazer, usually in there colors. But my school we wear like a blue dress and it has a whtie peterpan collar and white cuffs on the sleeves, and it has a belt....hard to explain....but it is distinct....i like it....saddles are actually very comfy once broken in....and it is nice not having to tuck in a blouse, which i did in my middle school....it got old

lol... see, i was going to go to this really great private school in my town (i got in and everything), but i decided to stick with the public school because most of my friends go here and i dunno... i like it for the most part...
i WISH we had swimming on top of gym... i love swimming!!! lol that's only cuz i was on the swim team for 7 years (i quit this year... it was too much and way more competitive than you'd ever think... swim training is no walk in the park...) so it would be a pretty easy course for me... lol ~*~laur~*~
