Try outs

Ugh! I tried out for basketball today. Bad idea since I hadn't touched a basketball in years. I thought there would be some on e there who was really bad and I could say" Hey at least I'm not that bad". Unfortunately I was that person. * cries* Oh well, I still have band.........I have no life. I'm really having fun in all my other classes though. The newspaper is getting along well. We are going to try to print out the first one soon and It'll get easier once we get it done once.I'm doing a pathetic book review. Why is it so pathetic you ask. It's for 1st through 3rd grade. *sighs* Plus the book has to be in the school library. I'm not grounded this week so I maybe can go to the movies. I've been grounded for the last past three or four weeks... It seems I talk in the wrong tone of voice. What is uup with that? I talked less to them, my parents, and they got suspicious that I'm up to something. So they ask. I reply in the wong tone of voice. I get grounded. It's just a giant repeating circle. That means it would be a good idea to go to the movies before the cirlce makes it's next go around. I think I'll go see the Shark Tale movie. That's al that's on right now. Talk to you later.

Newspaper

Well, now I'm regretting signing up for all that stuff at the beginning of the year. I'm am so busy. Although I'm sure everyone has a boat load to do to. In the yearbook staff I am supposed to be making an autograph page.Two friends and I are the editor/coordinators of the Newspaper.I have Chorus Wednesdays and Friday's during lunch.Newspaper on Tuesday and Thursday during lunch, and lots of Algebra to do that is absolutely useless.Oh yeah, I also need to practice my saxophone nonstop for the next month so a one of the lowly seventh graders don't take it.Student Council though is pretty easy.*sighs* I'm done with my self pity now:p Although through a few machinations I have succeeded in getting Matthew to help with the newspaper.( He has to help figure out the layout/format of it so we can print) I only think this is going to be good for one meeting though :( I'll have to figure something better out. ) Next time I right I'll try and be more optimistic....in other words try not to mention school. Fairwell for now. Tootles

No school!

Yay! We get out of school tomorrow.Reason: the ever so distuctive hurricane. I feel sota bad about being happy about it. Anyway, I'm just sitting here trying to turn a walnut shell into a teacup. Been working on it for 2 hours. I read about Merlin drinking out of a walnut cup in the Merlin series . No, I don't have anything better to do if you are wondering. I also hve to clean my room since I have all that extra time in which to do it tomorrow :( Oh well, -Tootles

Well, another day at the school entirely wasted on the betterment of young minds today...*sighs*...You think they would eventually quit trying to educate us when they noticed we just don't have the brain capacity it takes to cross multiply. Anyway not much going on, but school. Tootles

The Vulcans

Well, I have a question.....what exactly are the Vulcans. Some of my friends and I are the founders ( according to Matthew) of our new "club" called the Vulcans. You know the dude on Star Trek who has pointy ears? I think we're talking about him and his race of ppl..hmmmm...I have a sight with a picture of the dude and he's doing our club handsign . I think we should all have Vulcan names. (Actually I think we should have a club based on a more attractive race of aliens :) Well, I have to go . Tootles

Well, I have to say Yearbook staff is really cool. We have already been debating the cover. Which I can't tell what they look like. It's a secret. :P Anyway I have to go get ready for the highschool football game. Tootles

Year Book Staff

Well, guess what? I have failed once again to get my friends and I into a club/society so we can hang out. I got into yearbook staff, but unfortunately Thomas and Matthew didn't. I blame it on the fact that we turned in their essays after the bell had already rung. Although the teachers said we could turn them in until 3:00 and the bell rings at 2:30.* sighs * Anyway they're not a lot of people that I know on it. Thank goodness for Cassie. She got on the yearbook staff to. I really look forward to getting to take pictures etc. Now for my last resort for mission hang out ( that sounds so corny) ....... The math class. Holly and I have a plan. One day we are just going to tell her mom that we have after school math.Which she doesn't. Then I can go with her( my mom's a teacher and stays late) and tell Mr. Griswold that our mom's told us we could go to after school math and they said to say thank you for offering it. That way he's confused and can't remember if he sent home notes with the 8th grade Algebra class or not. hehehehe I'm just hoping we don't get caught at it. That is if we decide to proceed with mission hang out... I really haven't ran this by Holly yet....:) I have a lot of free time ,as you can tell, to think these things through. So if anybody wants to e-mail me a suggestion about this feel free. Write me at Bandbutterfly1@aol.com ............ Tootles!

The Siege of Avalon

I've played this game on my computer and beat it about ten times now trying to save my girlfriend. ( I have to choose a male character in the gam So of course he has the girlfriend not me.) Anyway in it Avalon is a fortress built from the remnants of a nation attacked by ahoul a race of ork things. It's really cool, but I like a lot of King Arthur'ish games. Anyway here's a link to a site where you can learn more about it. http://www.gamexperts.com/?gameslist_id=2895 Tootles

Site

http://abc-123.blogspot.com/ Oh yeah, here is Matthew's blog if you want to read his view of the trial

Sunday's trial

Well, we were going to do the trial ( the Cassie vs. Avery thing) ,but I wasn't on the computer so I don't know if they did it or not. I was going to be on when I got back home from my Mammow's house ( were we,my family, eat Sunday dinner), but my little cousin's were there and wanted to go to the creek. So I went to the creek the barn and everywhere else you could think of before I remembered the trial:( .I hope nobody's mad at me. They really didn't have to have me I was only the lawyer. Oh well, if they haven't done it yet we can get together and specify the time of the trial. Anyway nothin' much is up I have after school computer tomorrow . We can discuss the trial thingy there. I've been tryin' to find fencing class on the computer. Not to take on the computer. I want to take classes so I'm trying to find a place that offers them on my computer. I guess I worded that right. Yesterday Mr.Porter, A distant cousin of mine, gave me these cool wood thingys that come from a swamp or something . The swamp water rubs them smooth and make them look weird. They're some kind of tree top thingys.He actually got them in the early 50's which makes them even cooler. (FYI) My brother is going to get his pilot's license and Mr. porter is going to teach him hoe to fly. That's why Mr. Porter travels so much if I mention it. My rabbit is doing fine. Tootles :)

The court of the honarable judge Matthew

Tomorrow Cassie,Avery, I , and the o' so honorable judge Mathhew * rolls eyes* are holding a trial tomorrow (by way of chat room). Case: Cassie vs. Avery.... Why must Avery annoy Cassie continually? The trial will of course be held after church around 1 or 2 o'clock.I will be Cassie's lawyer and Avery will have a court appointed lawye (anyone else who's on). My gosh I am a dork aren't I..*shakes head* ... I am now an AOL lawyer...hehehehehe. Anyway I haven't done much of late. I have been taking care of silly rabbit. trying to figure out a good name.My mom wants to name it Kitty Kitty. Is that not mean? I want to name it after a book character. Tootles

Student Council

Guess what.....I got on the student council! Yah! I really wanted on to be with my friends though and only Holly got on * looks sad* I can't believe Thomas or Matthew didn't get voted in. Oh well, We still have a chance with yearbook staff. Plus+ one of teachers gives an after school math class (Mr.Griswold of course like I'd put up with the other math teacher Arnold.) . Well took it last year with my friends in Pre-algebra . I think that's the only class he offers it to is Pre-Algebra,but Holly and I are going to ask about it. Like he'd really turn us down an opportunity for a better education(Time to hang out).Matthew,Cassie , Thomas and I also go to after school computer on Mondays. The football game went well. I didn't fall or crash or die or anything so I think it went well. We won 8 to 6. Also another good thing for the game. Even if the band is more important than the players, they count also :) My rabbit is doing good and has put on weight since I caught it. Anyway.....Tootls :)

Kitty Cat

Yesterday I found my Cat who had caught a baby rabbit sitting in the field.So I went to take away the rabbit so he would maybe get the idea ot stop eating them. Well, Unfortunately the Rabbit was still alive. What to do?Of course I brought it inside and fixed it up a box to stay in 'till the morning ,.....turns out a front leg is broken though. So I'm going to keep it until the leg heals and realease it into the wild. On to other things I've been up to. Today we marched as I said earlier and now I have to leave due to the Mother of mine insisting I get off "right this minute". So I 'll continue updating on how the stupid rabbit is doing.Tootles:)

Marching

I love band,but despise having to lisyen to the band director :) Just to let you know. Today we got our places in the line up so we know were we have to go in the formation and before we did anything it rained on us.....bummer....Anyway we have to be ready by Thursday for the football game. We have only been practicing 2 weeks *looks worried* ,but I think we'll make it.Any way have to go. Tootles

Sunday

Hi, today is the inevitable day right before Monday. I will not complain about the inevitable
because there is absolutely no point in it. Well, I turned in my essay ( the yearbook staff one). Now I have to wait until September the sixth to find out if I made it. I have to turn in my Student Council Tuesday. I ,fortunately, joined chorus successfully. It turns out Mrs. Manor really doesn't care if your tone deaf. So now I get to hang out with more of my friends during lunch (chorus gets to go to lunch early). I really haven't done anything else. So tootles.

'Sup

Well, I started school last week and I am actually very happy to be back. I really missed my friends although depressingly they're only a few of them with any of the same classes. I only have Thomas in one and Matthew and Holly are in , guess how many......... Absolutely none of them. At least Kelcie is in all my classes, but two. I really can' t complain about my classes either. I really like algebra it's my favorite class . I finally get History and not Geography ( I want to Major in Archaeology). I get reading which is extremely easy. Mrs. Dillard is making us read a thirty page book *rollseyes*. I find it insulting that she doesn't think we're capable of reading more than what's included in a first grade reading book. Oh well, Let's not be Pessimistic. I'm writing an essay on what I could contribute to the yearbook staff . That's how they narrow down who gets to be on it. There is the limited amount of six people allowed. I'm also going to join chorus again this year Mrs. Manor doesn't mind if your tone deaf so I can still get on :). Plus I'm going to run for student council. I was in it last year,but then I was a seventh grader. Now I am in eighth and we ,my friends and I ,are now top dog of the school. Well I have to do my Algebra. Tootles :)

3 1 day of.... Doom's day

Today I went to school. I saw like Nobody at all, except for my Bestfriend Kelcie, and Thomas and one of my friends Cassie. Oh how I wish summer Vacation was here! (Even though I desperately need to improve my math.) Anyway just thought I would speak of the Future days of horror(school).

Clumsy

Today I was Climbing my tree( the tree I always climb) and I was going to do a flip off the branches. Well I was hanging upside down and accidentally let go. The worst part though was that I fell into a fold out chair that was full of rain water so now I'm soakin' wet. :) Anyway only 3 days until school is here. How utterly depressing.Anyway I look forward to seeing my friends. Tootles

iRepairs

Hey, I've been busy lately or I would have wrote the past two days. The day before yesterday I was in Chattanooga. I went to Hamilton Place Mall and bought books at Walden's bookstore.( Pendragon "Black Water" and The Complete Poems/Stories of Edgar Allan Poe) Then I had to go to Giant Steps and get my Saxophone repaired (Head piece recorked and octave key replaced.) I've already finished my Pendragon book. It's another cliff hanger like the Reality Bug, and guess what. The next book doesn't come out until ........ summer 2005! Don't you hate that. Now everyone who has read it has to wait a whole 'nother' year to see what happens.Anyway some of my Bro's friends are spending the night tomorrow.(absolute catastrophe) :) Well, that's all for now. Tootles

Day 2 of Blog

I went fishing at my Small pond in my front yard today.With my three cousins Shania age 7, Dolton age 8,and Colton age 12 . There's nothin'' in there, but small Brim and a few catfish so I don't even know why I try. I tried to ride Fritz ,my horse, but he's been mad at me ever since I made him run around the field so he wouldn't come to me. It wasn't like I enjoyed the last time I rode neither . The mean thing threw me off. I guess I'll just have to start using the saddle more often so I have something to hold me in place. I usually ride bareback.Oh well, I need to go change my template Matthew says it's messed up. I think I messed it up when I tried to Customize it.Tootles.
