Fridays

This is a typical Friday. Definetly. First, my mom picks me up after thirty minutes of waiting after school gets out. Then we go to the library where I pick up my books (so I won't be bored to death during the weekend). Then we went to the post office where (surprise, surprise!) to pick up our mail. We went home where my mom started cooking and cooking. Then at 6:00, we ate dinner. My family and some friends then had Bible Study for two hours. I finished my book, Lulu Dark and the Summer of the Fox, (which had a really disappointing ending) and here I am. Being bored. Writing whatever I can think of. Which isn't much. By the way. Talk. To. You. Peeps. Later.

A New Blog!

Hello, People of America! And Europe, Africa, South America, Asia, Australia, or even Antarcticia (why would anyone live there?) who just happens to stumble upon this blog! Well, I have created a new blog, in which I show my favorite songs. If you have a recommendation, tell me! Thanks!

School, school, and, of course, school...

Oh, school. School, school, school. Some days I love saying that word (the reason, I have no idea). Other days I loathe it. Today, it's just okay, but it is slightly getting worse everyday. We were assigned a big project called "American President's Packet". We have to know:

• the number of presidency
• the term in office (full date)
• his political party
• his nickname
• when he was born
• his birthplace
• the First Lady during his presidency
• his children (if any at all)
• his education (college?)
• his religion, the date of death
• his previous experience,
• his vice president
• his Secretary of State
• his Secretary of War
• his Secreatary of the Treasury
• his Attorney General

Did I mention that five important events during his presidency is also required, along with "a quote of some wise words of wisdom from the mouth of each president"? Yes, you read that correctly. We have to do a page like this for every president. Each of the 43. Wow. Is it just me or is this like a major homework load? You be the judge. (I am no complainer...well, actuallly I am. But I never usually complain about homework. Guess today isn't my day.) Wow. That was a long post. Guess I really loathe this assignment. Go figure.

What did I do yesterday?

In the morning, I surfed the web and read a book. Then at 1:30 the Newells picked us - my brothers and me - up from my house. They brought us up to their house, where they were hosting a party for Katie. We got there early, but my other friend named Priscilla (who used to go to my school) was already there. We played tag for a while, and then just hung out until everybody else was there; it was potluck time. We had porkchops, saugage, roll, fruits, chips, soda, and other food items. Then we went to the swings and talked. And talked. And talked. Then we played "I Love Lucy"games and had cake and ice cream. We walked around the Pointe and my legs started to hurt. Tomorrow I have to run the mile, and I am not in good condition to. Oh well. Post later. TTFN
