   Busy, Busy, Busy, Bee...B....Buh....meh.
This week has been pretty good for me. What to talk about first...?

Well, in Desltop Publishing this week, we're focusing on beginning to plan the yearbook. Last year's yearbooks look very cool. If this year's is good too, I may consider buying one. MAYBE.

In English, we're reading The Outsiders by S.E Hilton. It's a rather dark novel, and I peeked a bit in the further chapters, and it seems that two of the main characters die... O.O

The Outsiders is an account of a traumatic time in the life of fourteen-year-old Ponyboy Curtis. Hinton explores the themes of class conflict, brotherly love, friendship, and coming of age by following two rival gangs, the Greasers and the Socs, short for Socials, who are separated by social-economic status and political beliefs.

Yeah...got that off the wiki. ^_^;

In Biology, review. I don't think I didwell on the test (not postively sure, anyway) but I guess it's okay. The notes were confusing. O_o
And I wish we discussed them more...

In Theatre Arts, we presented our power points. On Monday, I remembered to go in and work on it (I didn't get much done, though). My teacher asked me whether or not my partner did enough work, and she told me to be honest. I was nervous, because I didn't want to get blamed from my partner, but I told her that she wrote two of the slides we did, and sometimes chatted with her friends when we were working, and she nodded and said I did 80% of the work. It wasn't much though...we presented, but we weren't finished. At least we got a passing grade of 70. ^_^;

Oh, but I got to check my average today, and I'm still making a high A 96-98ish. So, yeah...it worked out. :P

We also read this romantic comedy called 'Scuba Lessons' and it was pretty funny. I also found the script version of Monty Python's 'The Dead Parrot.' I smiled as I read it, the voices still in my mind...I can still see the vid now...I think I'll put it on today, too, at the end of the post, with other things. :D

In Algebra, we went reviewed for the mini-test on Wednesday. Since I made a 74 on my last test, I was terrified at how I was going to do on this test, even when my answers matched on the calculator when I checked. O.O
She kinda rushed us a bit at the end, because she wanted to go over some problems with us. I got all my main problems done; I didn't get to do the bonus (oh well...). I kept on worrying that night whether I passed or not (If I failed...yikes. I'm screwed). Well, next day comes, I'm as pale as snow while she's giving u our new averges...and here it comes...drumroll please...*patapatapatapatapata* ...I made a perfect score of 100. :D

So, now, instead of making a 79 average, the lowest average I've ever gotten for anything, I got an 87. :D

Still, I don't trust myself, I still worry and panic constantly with math tests and quizzes, and that benchmark is making me nervous with what she calls, 'The hardest test you will ever have in your life.' O.O

Duhn duhn duuuuuuuuhn!

Well, please pray for me and the other students for a passing grade, PLEASE! ^_^;

In Tennis, Kirby was sitting out most this week, and we played games and practiced. I'm improving steadily, and (whaddya know?) today, since Kirby was sitting out with a bad foot, and Missy went to the state fair, I was practically the only girl playing today. Add me to four other boys, who can do killer fast balls and great skill, and what do you get? A five-man court game. XD

It's very odd having five people play on the court at the same time. Doubles is one thing, but this was just plain weird. XD

And we kept on hitting balls WAY out. I'm pretty sure I had to run out the gate about, oh, I don't know, FIVE TIMES OR SO?! I thought I was funny, and, of course, when I'm in a good mood, I sometimes like making wisecracks, no matter how lame they can be. :P

"Oh, look! Another ball for me to get! This is the greatest day of my life!" XD

Kirby said I have a cute yell. Yeah, since boys have stronger arms, they hit harder too, and that's why they're fast balls, so, for some of the time, I kept on shrieking with fear when a ball's about to hit me. I wasn't trying to sound cute or anything, but thank's for the compliment, Kirby! :D
I got hit twice today, too. Once in the back, and once on my leg. Nothing serious, though. ^_^
No crying or broken faces or anything. ^_^

In Health, mostly bookwork. On Thursday, and today as well, we watched this video about violence, and it showed how a group of gang teens were grouped together, see how violence affects others and themselves, and ultimatly change. Our teacher said there was this one gruesome scene where this guy's intestines are showing out of his stomach, and that we might look away.

...

Yeeeeah. Cartoon violence and sometimes cartoon scary images, I can handle about 90% of the time or so. But when it's real...I might run out of the room or wherever I am, screaming, crying, or throwing up. Take your pick. ^_^

But it was a VERY interesting video, and they even got to go to the Columbine High school, where the greatest school shooting massacre (now taken this title by the Virginia Tech massacre). It was pretty deep.

In Geography, we went over notes, and worksheets, and a test, and I think I'm doing well overall. ^_^

You know what was odd yesterday at lunch? Kirby and I were leaving to go to tennis, and these girls called me over and asked whether or not I wanted to go with this blond haired kid named Sean. First things first...I know SEVERAL Seans. Just saying 'that blond-haired boy named Sean' isn't really going to help me much while I'm at the other end of the cafeteria. T_T

Yeeeah. Then they asked whether or not I could give him my number, and then Kirby pulled me away (yes, thank you. ^_^) I swear, though, I coould feel them tugging me apart: The girls' with their voices, and Kirby with her arms. Yeah, why ask me all of a sudden? XD

I'm not going on dates until college or so, so HA! XD

Only in my little, but great, fantasy world of imagination, where anything can happen. ^_^

Alright. Now, for pics and vids! :D

Naruto: The Abridged Series Episode 16

YAAAY! :D



Monty Python - Dead Parrot

One of the best Monty Python skits I've ever seen. XD






SO CUTE!!! X3333



I guess I just love Team 7 and Tdam Minato. ^_^;;



Awwwwwwwwwwwww! :3333

And just one comic...



Ha ha. Weird. XD

Well, that's all for today. See ya! ^_^

PS - Just TRY typing while you're trying to eat an ice cream cone in one hand, 'cause that's what I'm doing right now. XD
