I'm working my best on running. I like running in Mines Falls because it's wooded. So, on hot days like today, it doesn't get that bad. I still come home pretty sweaty. I'm starting to see Mr. Cobb(s?), the guy's track coach more often. This also helps with my wanting to do cross country in the summer/spring. I just began week 2 of my running and I ( Read more... )

The smallest things bring a smile to my face. Like seeing yellow butterflies dance in the air as they fly around each other. Or spying a purple pail in a nearby stream. Seeing the look of amazement on a person's face, when they have received something incredible. Two hands together, being held. A wink of encouragement from across the room. Having ( Read more... )

....I have been! Tee-hee! Wow...what a fun, crazy, laughing day I have had. In the morning laughing at Sable's "skank" dress that Lauren was supposed to wear....but due to the fact of the skankiness, she didn't. In Chemistry the exam was a bit hard, but I laughingly made a mistake, in which I had to rewrite my whole answer to one of the questions. ( Read more... )

Oh my gosh! We got there so mad early! Last night I had gotten a red sox tee shirt so that I would fit in well. We arrived at Fenway around 11:45amish and the game didn't start until 1:20pm. Had lunch, walked around. I went with my dad, uncle, and a guy from my uncle's workplace. We sat in centerfield. The Red Sox did pretty well. They led the ( Read more... )

Let's see...a bright and bea-Utiful day. Chem-Kati did her test today..it took 45 minutes for her to complete, so I'm looking at 20-35 minutes for myself on Monday. Sable came so close to defeating level 11 on block dude today...man, that level's nuts! Algebra-did stuff...boring stuff. English-took an easy test...though I got 3 wrong...oh well. My ( Read more... )

Yay! I'm happy. Today was a wicked good day. It started out dismally but turned out beautifully. I get the Chem stoichiometry stuff! In Algebra I was a big help to my good friend Dana by writing notes to her and explaining various problems. In English it was review for our TOMATS test tomorrow. I am ready to pass the test on the pathetically boring ( Read more... )

Mmm...what a tasty snack. So crisp that you can feel the smooth texture once you bite into them and then all white on the inside. One of my friends only likes the peel, while the other only likes the insides. Myself, both work together as a perfect team. Chemistry was alright..Sable and I helped each other with puzzle frenzy. In Algebra we got to ( Read more... )

Wow! I leave in a month and eleven or twelve days to go to Zgierz (zygesh), Poland. We have to wear special uniforms there. I'm on a pretty small team with enough chaperones/leaders/adults to have about one per teen going. I have already met (sorta) one of the members of my team through AIM. She's a really nice girl who has cerebal palsy that ( Read more... )

RRrrrrgggg! That was like the hottest parade ever! I was sweating up a storm under my heavy Titans uniform. Mrs. Matheke had us play 6-7 times in a row without a break....AHHH! I kept on getting water soo much whenever we breaked from playing. We got to see the Elm Street kids. Their band is so huge! I got to see my southie friends. Kati stole ( Read more... )

...stuffaluffagus! I swear, if I didn't have had a test and a quiz today, I would've stayed home. I've been talking most of today with this really bad accent (not sure what sort of accent...except that me saying "N..O..means No" sounded like "End...Oh...means No"). Took a fairly easy test in Chem. Tons of seniors were out for Senior Skip Day. In ( Read more... )
