((Hey everyone!

I'm sorry for not being around a ton lately, but school has really been beating my butt. :( Hopefully I should be around more often - at least until graduation hits, then it is likely I'll disappear again without so much as a goodbye! (I am nothing if not honest)

Anyway, I'm actually online a lot, I'm just invisible, so feel free to send an IM my way and if I'm on I'll get back to you. Darcy really doesn't have a lot going on in terms of storylines aside from people hating her (self-inflicted, of course, so don't get me wrong, I'm not bothered by it :D) but I wouldn't mind her having a couple of friends. Or acquaintances. Or even people who are willing to talk to her without wanting to punch her in the face. Just to mix it up a little, m i rite?

She lives a lonely life, our Darce.

Wow, have things been busy lately or what? Regionals is coming at us faster than ever, so Manny and I have been working overtime getting the Squad ready. We're all set for some major butt-kicking. The other teams might as well throw in the towel now, because they don't stand a chance against us!

With everything being so busy, I hardly have anytime to spend at home, which is really a shame. ~~Not.~~ I miss sitting down to dinner with my family. ~~Not.~~ But, I finally got my own computer back from being thoroughly investigated the shop, so now I don't have to write my school papers on Dad's work computer anymore. He would always go through and proofread them when I was done, then make me go fix my mistakes. Obsessively perfectionistic much? It's nice to be able to work without him totally breathing down my neck. As if I haven't been getting enough of that from my parents anyway! I just got ungrounded after a month of no social life whatsoever, and now everytime I turn around they're there, waiting for me to screw up. I miss being trusted.

Friendship Club is starting to plan their spring trip. We were thinking about staying in Niagara Falls for a few days, going to Marineland or something like that. It's going to be a lot of fun. It'd be more fun if Spinner was ever around. I haven't seen him at church since the breakup, much less at Friendship Club. I can understand why he's mad.. but God calls us to ask for forgiveness and to forgive one another, and so far he hasn't even given me the chance. He'll barely even talk to me. Once we decide on a destination, we'll be collecting money through March - so don't hesitate to join us! Room 115, every Thursday after the last bell. It's a really good time!

For Christmas, my parents got me this amazing bedding set: comforter, quilt, extra sheets and all. I am under every single one of them right now and I'm still shivering. It's this way every year. By August, I'm ready for winter and snow and cute hats, but by the first day of February I'm freezing and ready to go back to pools and sunshine and tank tops. I guess a sunny disposition alone isn't enough to keep a girl warm!

As for this journal business, everyone else was doing it. How could I resist? ~~Although, given my last incident involving the internet, this is practically asking for trouble.~~ I don't know how much I'm actually going to have to write about. I'm an normal girl living a normal life. I'm in grade 11, and I'm head cheerleader of Degrassi's Spirit Squad, who are on their way to being the best squad at regionals this year! We've come miles from where we were at the beginning of the year, and between the new members and the new uniforms, we've got a lot to look forward to. But it's a lot of work, and a lot of time and dedication are going toward us getting there. So most of my time during the week is spent with the squad, or - sigh - doing homework. Yet another reason I'm looking forward to summer! On the weekends, I spend my time with my friends and at church. Don't get me wrong. I'm no bible-thumping religious zealot. I love my church and the community surrounding it, but my religion doesn't define who I am. Anyone who really knows me could tell you that.

The sermon at church today focused on the parable of the lost sheep. It got me thinking because I've got a lot to be forgiven for. Spinner and I barely speak anymore, since the breakup. The breakup that was completely my fault. I just wish we could have talked about it, you know? After the whole drama with him and Paige this summer, we talked about it and we got over it and we moved on. I feel like I never got that chance. In addition to being forgiven, I guess I've got some forgiving to do myself. I haven't spoken to Peter since Spinner and I broke up. And yeah, what he did was awful. But it's not something that can be taken back. I don't think he has a lot of friends. Maybe he wouldn't be so.. creepy, if he did. Maybe?

Anyway, I'm sure I'll have more to say once I actually resume my normal social schedule. :) Midterms were killing me there for awhile!
