Took Ruby in to get a urinalysis done and more medication. I also stopped by Bridges and picked up another pack of the Greenies Pill Pockets in beef flavor.

I didn't quite make it to my ballet class today. I was running about half an hour late. So, instead I sat reading my new book, The Ballet Companion. I also searched Pacific Northwest Ballet's website for their Open program.

They're the only other area dance school that offers ballet classes at a time and day I can take them. They offer a Beginning/Intermediate class Saturday 10am-11:30am, and an Intermediate class Monday-Friday 10am-11:30am. So, theoretically, I could take 5 ballet classes a week! That would be great! After a while I would feel comfortable taking the Intermediate/Advanced class on Saturday 10am-11:30am. That class is on pointe.

After dinner I talked to my mom about taking ballet classes through PNB's Open program. I'm alright with taking ballet classes at this studio in Lake Stevens to work on my technique, but I want something more. This studio focuses a lot on competitions, so much so that I didn't have class last Friday due to there being a competition last weekend. My mom sounded alright with me taking ballet classes through PNB's Open program. Actually, she asked me when classes were, and when I told her that they're Monday-Saturday at 10am she offered to give me money for class and parking so that I can go tomorrow! That'll be awesome. I think I shall give it a try. It means I won't get to sleep in, but that's okay, I sleep in too much as it is. I pray that I wake up and get ready and am out of the house by 9am.

Well, it looks like my makeup tutorial video won't be up until next week, at the earliest. I had the hard drive of my laptop replaced on December 3rd, 2009, which was within the year of warranty that I had on my laptop. My laptop appears to be experiencing a problem that is similar to the problem I dealt with at the end of November/beginning of December. I feel that my replacement hard drive should have lasted more than the little over 2 months that it lasted. I don't feel that I should have to pay to have a replacement hard drive, seeing as the replacement hard drive appears to not have even lasted 3 months.

The only reason I'm at school right now is due to needing to make the final payment on my classes, and so that I can get help reformatting my hard drive on my laptop. See if that'll take care of the problem.

Bye-bye Laptop

Well, I probably won't be posting much over the next few days. I'm going to have to take the Mint CD that I have and back up my files, again. Looks like I shall be reformatting my hard drive tomorrow. Oh joy. To say that I'm pissed off would be an understatement. This is the second time I've had to deal with this since November!

I've already spent two hours reading my school books today. Go me! Haha. Now I have to quickly research Safe Mode and Diagnostic Mode and write a short paragraph on the differences between the two.

I was about 10 minutes to class today, which is better than it's been. I really need to work on getting to school on time.

Sorry, I haven't had the chance to work on editing my makeup video today. I was busy suffering from insomnia last night, so I didn't fall asleep until around 3am this morning. I only got up around 10am because my dad threatened to dump water on me to wake me up.

My Network Server Admin teacher talked to me about a possible internship for the summer, and about helping rid the Marysville school districts computer servers of viruses. He'll put my name in the queue for that opportunity. I wonder if it'll include some pay, even if it's minimum wage. My teacher said that it'll be a good way to network/meet people.

Well, I did film my tutorial yesterday, and I wore the look today. Now I just need to work on taking a picture of the look after wearing it all day, finish editing my tutorial, and load it on Youtube.

Yay, my mother's talking to my father again. Things are back to normal. I'm getting more studying done. So, that's good. I really need to work on Ruby and her jumping up when she greets people. Ooh, Ruby finally did a down! I was so happy. I'm going to attempt making my first makeup video. I think I'm going to do it on my everyday look using my Clinique quad.

My dad went to the model train show with my brother and my two nephews.

Woohoo! I filmed my first makeup tutorial! I'll try and get it edited and posted tomorrow. Wish me luck on that.
