This past week I found out that the Wild tickets I got for Christmas will be coming in the mail soon. I'm super excited because it is to the outdoor stadium series game at TCF stadium. It is in about a month and I can not wait. The tickets are for the game on Saturday February 20, which is a alumni game between the Wild/Northstar team and Chicago Blackhawks. The other game is a regular game between MN Wild and Chicago Blackhawks which will hopefully be a good game because they are rivals. My mom bought them for me and my sister and she asked a couple of our cousins if they wanted to go. My brother and dad did not want to go because it is an outdoor game. I just hope that it is not below zero that weekend, but if it is I will just have to bundle up a lot. I have been to many Wild games before, but never an outdoor one and it is a once in a life time experience. A few of the games I have been to were in the suits and that is the best because you have your own room to walk and there is already food in there. We got the tickets from my dads work. The MN Wild have not been doing so will in January which is very disappointing. Right now they are on the all star break so I'm hoping the rest they are getting will get them back on the winning streak. I had no idea that I was getting these tickets, but my sister did because my mom had to ask if she could come home that weekend from college. Hockey is my favorite sport to watch especially when I'm lucky enough to go to the game. During the all star break they have an all star game which is the best of the best compete against each other and they also have a night where they compete on skills. It's sad to think about how I'm going to college next year and I won't be able to go to as many games as I have. So I'm hoping I could maybe go to a couple when I come back from winter break. I'm really hoping that I I will be able to go to a couple more games before the end of this season. 

    So this past week I found out that it's that time when we sign up for AP exams again. AP stands for advanced placement. This year I will be taking the AP psychology one and I'm kinda nervous about it even though I am doing good in the class. I have taken a couple of the exams before. I don't know if you have taken one, but they can be very stressful because they are timed and I felt very rushed during them. My goal on the exam is to get at least a 3, which I think I can do because I feel way more confident on this one. Right now we are getting ready to take a test on ch.11 which is the intelligence unit. I'm really excited about our next chapter which is developmental. We have a project during this unit and we have to work with children between the ages of 3-8. My mom does daycare so I am going to pick a couple of them to ask the questions to and finish the tasks. I'm very curious to see the difference in responses between the age limits. I'm doing the project with a friend so I'm hoping that goes smoothly. I need to sign up soon or I will not be able to take the exam which would be devastating because I have been putting so much work into this class since the beginning. The cost of it is $50 which is kinda expensive, but if it gets me out of the class in college it is a win win because it cost way more for a credit in college. I took the AP chemistry exam last year, but I got a 2 on it and I needed at least a three for credit. Even though I will have to take it again for my major in college it will be a lot easier that time around because I will not have to learn as much because I already have. I really enjoy learning psychology because it is so interesting. I have found myself lately using psychology vocab words during the day. Which is good because I will remember them better for the AP exam. 

I'm very overwhelmed right now, first day back from winter break not knowing how to get back in the groove of things. Break was awesome first Christmas then New Years no way to top that. I did get tickets to the stadium series wild game which is in February and I had no idea I was getting them. I am going with my two cousins, sister and mom.  Not ready for school, but I do graduate in less than 6 months and I still feel like a five year old and don't know what to do next. After graduation Winona is the next step, but who knows things change all the time. Once I was planning to go out of town with my dad down to Missouri and I came home from school to find out that my uncle has unexpectedly passed away. One thing that keeps my mind of things would definitely be photography. I love taking pictures and coming up with creative ideas and angles. I have taken a few photography classes through my school and being able to develop my own pictures in the dark room is one of the most rewarding things. My favorite picture I have taken is a picture of a metal flower and then we were able to take the negative of the picture so it turned out that the blacked turned white and the white turned black. I also love taking pictures during holidays like Christmas we had family over and I took a lot of pictures to capture the moments. My favorite one has to be the one of my aunts puppy opening her first present ever. She had a thought time to begin but it got better from there. After that she took a couple of other people's gifts which was pretty funny, but at least she didn't break anything. I hope to keep on with pictures as a hobby throughout my life. Maybe in college they will have a photography class or a photograph minor which I would be very I interested in. This would expand my knowledge on photography and make me become even better. Another thing I love is working with children even though they can be hard at time to handle that's alright. I babysit a lot and it's always a fun time and I love watching how excited they are to see me when I get to their house. I babysit mostly for the same family's so they really get to know me which is what I love about it.
