possibly a year ago, today

been gone a while

Sorry I've been gone for so long, but I plan to blog a lot more, because: SCHOOL IS OUT!!!!! OH YEAH!!! WHOPEE!!! CHAY-YA!!! Also, I'm so excited because Catherine and her familly come in less than 2 days, and we leave on vacation in pretty much 21 days!!!! It's pretty hot here these days, with temperatures reaching the upper 80's, but luckily, we're probably going to install a fan in our room, finally.

happy april fool's day!

I don't know about you, but my April Fool's Day consisted of me playing pranks and cruel pranks played on me. I played two pranks

1. stealing everything (all the pictures, mirriors, ect) from her locker. (we gave it back)
2. pretending to choke on a grape during lunch.

Both pranks turned out pretty well, but the cruel joke played on me was this:

During math, the teacher said," Guess what everyone! The school board has decided to cancel all the make-up days from the snowdays!"

While everyone is so happy, she says the two little words,"April Fools." And we were sad.

THE END

can't wait to see these cute kids again!

I can't wait to see these cute kids while we're visiting!

happy pi day!

On Friday, if you all were wondering, it was Pi Day! The explanation is it was 3/14 1:59:26. My math class made an anouncement, and all the classes who knew screamed "Happy Pi Moment" (because it only lasted a second) out in the hallways.

steering from the shotgun???

Last Sunday, while we were driving to church, Mom asks me,"do you want to steer?"
I said," sure, why not?" So I steered us down the road. Don't get me wrong, the roads were clear, there were no other cars as far as we could see, and I am going to be able to drive in less that 6 months.(My half-birthday was 2 days ago.) I steered us right in the middle of the lane, and Mom says I'm pretty good at it. Over the past few days I have been just watching the road, trying to kind of learn on my own "driving etiquette".

lots of performances

This week there have been lots of performances:

• the audition for Young Artists
• Young Artists ( pretty much just a recital)
• recitals

Good thing I played the same song for all three events! Sadly, though, Mom and Dad forgot the camera for recitals, and when they brought the video camera to Y.A., it had a dead battery. That is the sad part, but, there's always next year. *sigh*

brrrrrr!!!!!

It's been really cold here, and that means car rides to school. Also, it means the start of a new subject in P.E.: aerobics. It's really fun, especially with all the lights turned off in the gym with a huge projection on a huge screen on the the wall of Richard Simmons and "Sweatin Land". Or "Sweat to the Oldies", or something like that. Next week we're doing pilates with mats, and once or twice I've walked by the gym and there have been 70 step platforms lined up in rows. Last week we did kickboxing, which was really fun, and a good workout. More coming soon!

long time and no posts

Lots of things have happened lately, but pretty much the coolest one was we got a Wii! It is really fun to play and a good workout. It's almost just like playing the game in real life, except in boxing, you might not have a chance of winning at all in the real world.
