broke a mirror this morning while getting ready. I accidently dropped my hand mirror on the tile floor. It pretty much shattered. :( According to superstitions from many years ago, I am now facing 7 years of bad luck!?!

For example, my aunt used to make this X mark across the windshield if she was driving down the road and a black cat ran across. I laughed and thought it was crazy, but just something she'd heard for years and wasn't taking any chances. :D
I kinda beleive in that stuff but not really.

A visitor to Beijing's National "Bird's Nest" Stadium was shocked to find a new-born baby abandoned in one of the venue's toilets, local media reported on Wednesday. The baby, later identified as a girl, was found by a woman around noon on Tuesday at the Bird's Nest, which is currently holding athletics events for the Paralympic Games, the Beijing Times said."The woman told venue staff that there was a newborn baby in the toilet, with blood still on its body," the paper said. Volunteers and staff searched for the mother for two hours to no avail, then sent the baby to a hospital.

5 goals for 2008-2009 school year

One goal for me for this school year is to do my homework. I really do not enjoy doing homework but I know I need to buckle down. My next goal will be to pay more attention in class instead of doing other things. My third goal is to have an A average both semester. I've never had an average below a 89 which is a good grade but I want it to be an A. Next would have to be having an outstanding season in basketball. I hope that I will be able to break some records this year. My last goal of course will have to be to GRADUATE!!!!!!!!! I can't wait until that time comes. I know I mite miss my family and friends but I'm ready to leave Coffee County!
