It seems like only a few weeks ago that I got out of school for the summer, and technically that's true, as I got off of Summer School a week and a half ago. Now, regular school is starting in exactly 2 weeks today.

I am starting to feel old. I'm going to be a junior in high school this year. Next summer I am hopefully going to New Zealand for 8 weeks on an exchange and then it's senior year.

I know I'm just overthinking everything and should enjoy my time now, but...

It's been a little over 2 years since we moved into our new house with new appliances, and out refrigerator has sadly broken down today.

It was a stainless steel maytag bottom freezer style with all these fancy bells and whistle (ice maker, temperature control, thermometer, door alarm, and a bunch more) and today, it goes haywire out of nowhere with no warning.

The thing is, although he lives at home, I see him about 5-10 minutes a day. He leaves at about 6 in the morning for work, and he's home by 4, but then he takes a shower and locks (well closes the door)...

Well yesterday was the first day of summer school and it wasn't too bad. I'm taking Biology 11. Summer school is for 5 and a half weeks, 3.5 hours a day (8:00 am-11:30 for me. There are 2 sessions a day 8-11:30 and 12-3:30). It actually goes by pretty fast and it's not too bad, only waking up in the morning .
