Middle School Dance

2010-05-15T15:04:00.000-07:00

Last night I went to my first dance. It was really fun. All my friends were there and we were all having a great time. We all looked great and danced the night away. the time seemed to go by really fast. The dance was at Montealonea Meadows. It was fun to have a parent free night. we all danced,sang,and laughed. It was the most fun i have had in a long time. The DJ was really cool and played awesome songs the whole night. i was jumping up and down through a lot of songs. it was a island themed dance. my dress was so pretty. when i got home there was 3 or 4 hours till the dance and my mom pulled me to get ready right away. I was so happy i was able to go. the school had one last year to but i wasnt allowed to go. Thats ok its a parent thing i guess. I was "too young to go"

My Friends Birthday

2009-11-07T12:12:00.000-08:00

yesterday was my friends birthday and it was the best day ever. She turned thirteen. we went to her house and we played and watched TV for a while. then we went to P.F Chang's for dinner. we had the best time there.then we went to see A Christmas Carol. it is way better than the way it looks. it was kinda scary at the end of the movie. Her mom brought our Spanish teacher s wife along and i thought it would be fun. And I was right. we all had a great time together. she invited two others besides me. it was the bomb.

Halloween

2009-10-30T14:21:00.000-07:00

yes. I am so excited for Halloween to be here. I am going to be a Egyptian princess. NOT Cleopatra just a Egyptian princess. Thomas is going to be a army fighter. Eliza doesn't have a costume because she hates them. Dylan will be a vampire who will drink Tommy's blood. scary. mom is going to wear a glow in the dark shirt that says BOO. ITS SO SCARY. It where we go to our church and have a big Halloween party. I am inviting my friend Madisyn and her friend Jordan. Its going to be fun. I am improving on all my tests. I have been very bad at them lately. Math is really fun. My math teacher has cards like poker cards and we pick a card every Monday and we get a new seat. Like if i picked a 7 of clubs i would s sit in a 7 of club seat. he has the cards taped on the back of the seats. Math is my faaaavorite subject. Mr. fisher is the bomb. we gave him a nickname it is Mr. fish sticks. P.E is fun to but we do a lot of running and exercise. its hard but fun. I won this big jar of candy at my P.E teachers church and I left it under my pillow and when i left for volley ball practice i saw a billion ants attacking my candy. i saved all the recess but not the MNMs. the MNMs were like peanut butter and jelly and raspberry. YYUUCCCKK. Well I do play volley ball we are good at practice but not games. I guess you get my point we haven't won yet.

Last day of school

2009-06-12T15:15:00.000-07:00

Today was my last day of school. I am so sad cause I wont be able to see most of my best friends.Most of them are not coming back. I will really miss Jaye and Damara. I will call them a lot and I will miss them terribly. I did not want to have a last day of school, but it was OK.

I guess I am an official 7th grader. I cant wait.

The Last week of school

2009-06-09T20:34:00.000-07:00

Well this is my last week of school. I am so happy but, the downer is I have no idea what I am going to do. I am going to my dads the last two weeks until I am going into 7th grade. I am really happy about that. I am also doing some classes and I am hanging out with my friends. I cant do that all my summer. I have two weeks and a half and I don't know what to do. In school we are doing the play and we are recording tomorrow. Then tomorrow I have field day. On Friday we have a half day and my grandparents are leaving. Oh well my parents are out in Washington D.C., It is for Michaels grad. present. So my grandpa and grandma are watching the gang.

I broke my glasses!

2009-05-17T21:10:00.000-07:00

So today I sat down to watch a movie on my DVD player. I sat down and I heard a snap so I said" Was that my glasses?" So took them of my face and they just fell apart. So I had to go to church with no sight. Its kinda hard to type right now but you know its a sacrifice I can deal with. I am far sighted so its a good thing I sit in the back row in school! Well wish me luck not tripping.

Tomorrow

2009-05-14T16:16:00.000-07:00

Tomorrow there is a superhero day at my school. I am going to be Cat Woman. My friend might be Wonder Woman. My friend is going to bring these skinny black jeans and maybe some boots.Then I am going to go to my friends house for a little party she has every year when a father and son camp out.Then all the girls are lonely so she has a party of all girls only. So I think that it is going to be a fun Friday.

My mom

2009-05-11T19:07:00.000-07:00

My mom is the best. I know everyone says that but its true my family would literally colaps without her in it. My dad would be at work and no one would be able to pick any of us kids up from school. It would be a battle field we would lose our self respect,we would lose our beliefs ,we would lose her love. My dad is a wonderful person too but he would fall apart if she was gone. I LOVE YOU MOM your the best mom any one could have.

My Friday

2009-05-09T11:55:00.000-07:00

My Friday night was a real treat to my young women program. my leaders set up this really fun camp out at this one lady's house. She was really nice to let us use her yard. The things we did was:
We painted blocks for the kids that don't have toys to play with.(I made a remote)
We made fire with 2 d batteries and steel wool.
We made dinner in a dutch oven.
We got to ride on horse's.(I haven't had a ride since i was like 5 or 6)
We set up our tents.
My friends and I didn't go to sleep till like 12:00 and we woke up at 5:30. I thought we only slept for ten minutes. I woke up because my friend Serena tripped over my leg and it hurt. We made some eggs and some potatoes. We also went to a lake down in her yard and Marci tripped and got all muddy. we were trying to see how deep the pond was but most of the water already evaporated. When i got home right now I was happy that I went.

Sports

2009-05-07T20:59:00.000-07:00

There are so many sports out there and I have done:

Swimming
volleyball
Softball
soccer
gymnastics
GUITAR

So this season I am going to try lifeguard and water polo. I am going to volunteer at doing lifeguard for a pool not to far from here. My friend Maddi always signs up for lifeguard lessons so this would help me with knowing someone. I already know how to do CPR i9 learned last night. It is really interesting to hear stores about it. I like learning different things. So I am really excited to be doing this. Wish me luck!!!!!!

MAY

2009-05-07T20:41:00.000-07:00

Okay so may has been like a crazy month for my family so far.I started my project on May 2 and it is a project were I have mozzarella cheese and Colby jack cheese and cheddar cheese and i have three on the counter and three in the fridge. My hypothesis was that the cheddar cheese on the counter would have the most mold and would mold the fastest. So far my hypothesis is wrong the mozzarella cheese has the most and is molding the fastest. Then today we went up to this mountain behind us then we saw a RATTLESNAKE!!!!! Oh my gosh it was so terrifying. My dad poked it with a stick and then it ratteled at us. it was so freely. Well their was more but I don't really remember day by day. I will tell you about my project more as i get into it.

After the temple we got to try Indian food. It was okay just not all of it was great. I had a fun time because this was the first school to ever visit one of the Indian Temples as a field trip.

JOKE

2008-11-28T18:22:00.000-08:00

My friend found this

the parrot

A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude, obnoxious, and laced with profanity.

John tried and tried to change the bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music, and anything else he could think of to "clean up" the bird's vocabulary.

Finally, John was fed up, and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot, and the parrot got angrier and even ruder. John, in desperation, threw up his hand, grabbed the bird, and put him in the freezer. For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed.

Then suddenly there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard for over a minute. Fearing that he'd hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer.

The parrot calmly stepped out onto John's outstretched arms and said, "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior."

John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude. As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, the bird continued, "May I ask what the turkey did?"

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Today we had our school elections. It was very nerve racking! I didn't know who to vote for. I didn't want to make anyone feel bad. I went to computers and I am making a power point for social studies about the neolithic and paleolithic times. I am doing well in Spanish. It is hard to keep up, but I am doing my best. Every month we have to do a book report. This month I am reading Bridge to Terabithia.
