HMMM... What the...




Backroom Guest Book Log Off



Expression: Tired

Music: Can You Keep A Secret? - Utada Hikaru

Well... Today was odd, tiring, and other junky feelings... XD

My day...

Art - We drew 'still art' yesterday... Sorry I didn't post... My idiot brother Ricky hogged all the time last night. And then I watercolored it... Mostly brown for the boots... Black for the hat... It's going to be hard on the face... So wrinkle-y... And weird...

?!?!?! - After Art, no one was going to their 2nd period class... This girl said that everyone was in the cafeteria... I also didn't see my ELA class... THen James said that they had a magic show in the cafeteria... Also the BELL RANG!! THE TARDY BELL!! AND WE CAME EARLY!!! TxT Like 10 minutes later... They came back...

ELA - We wrote in our journals... I wrote a short one, and read Straw into Gold while the others read...

Tousle and Innes were at the mill with the King's Grip, and the Grip told them of tale of a little man who made gold from straw. Tousle knew he was talking about his father. Actually, the Grip was sent by the King to protect the 2 young lads from Great Lord Beryn... But, the Grip thought, to protect Innes and get his money, or to slay him and get his money from Great Lord Beryn... Or shall he do both? So then, the Grip accidentally swinged his sword and hit a beam in the celing, and the mill fell down on him. TOusle and Innes got out safely and saw that the King's Grip had broken some of his ribs.

They ran... To a little cottage in the middle of the woods, Tousle had thought it was his father's design. They both went in, and saw two cots, and brown bread and hot cider already set on the table. They drank and ate, ate and drank... And after that day, they slept... When TOusle awoke the next day, he heard the Grip's horse, and woke Innes. They ran again... And found two horses outside. Innes asked if Tousle had remembered that horses were afraid of him. He replied yes, but he said to make a clicking noise. Then, Innes found out that the clicking scares them.

Innes finally got on the horse, and so did Tousle, so they rode until they noticed that theyre tracks they were leaving were easy to follow... So they left the horses and walked on foot.

That night, Tousle and Innes had found a town. They found a sexton wandering about in the church. And the sexton said that he would protect them from Lord Beryn's Guard and the Grip.

So they went to his home... And then, they saw the old woman again, who hugged them as they came into her cottage that smelled of herbs. They ate the stew and other foods that the old woman gave them. THey said they needed to be at Saint Eyensham's to find the queen and tell her the riddle.

The sexton agreed to show them to Saint Eyensham's. So they went on their horses that were outside and rode to St. Eyensham's that night.

In the morning, when the sky was almost dawn, the sexton asked for them to get off the horses and walk there. So they did...

...And they found St. Eyensham's Abbey at dawn.


Science - Well... We did this sheet about what we read yesterday... Osmosis, Passive and Active Transport, and Diffusion.

Social Studies - We graded our Canadian map we did yesterday, and since we had a lot of free time, I read the rest of the story.


When Tousle and Innes were at the gate, an old woman appeared and screamed at them, claaing them beggars. Tousle said that the queen's son had come to see her... The old woman at the gate thought for a moment... And let them in. Tousle, the necklace he was wearing, gave it to Innes.

They were directed to a small chapel, and saw the queen. She was kneeing down, playing softly to the statue of St. Anne (or something like that). When she looked at them, we went to Innes and touched his scar that was embedded over his eyes. They told them of their journey, and the queen laughed as thought they were telling her the story of her life... And then, Lord Beryn's Guard had come and said if that the queen doesn't give Innes to him, they will not escape. So on the day the sisters had to fetch water, Tousle and Innes wore nun clothes... It was hard, walking like a nun and balancing a pail on their head...

The other 9 nuns had said they will come back and forth and confused Lord Beryn's Guard while the 3 make their escape... And it worked... For a while.

They ate in a cave, and heard the footsteps of a galloping horse, and held their breath. After, they rode the horses, and met that little cottage again which Lord Beryn had said he burned. They found brown bread and cider, with 3 cots ready. They ate and drank drank and ate, and that night they slept. They woke early in the morning and hurried to Wolvingham. On their way, they saw a miller and a farmer, the queen had recognized the miller, who was her father, and embraced each other. The miller's wife came out and hugged too... The farmer called the miller lazy from the bale he did not catch.

So then, Tousle went back to that little cottage they found out in the woods, and saw the King's Grip... Who had stared at a spindle that was in a corner... He spinned the straw that was in the basket... And spun it... And spun... And all became gold. Tousle had no longer seen him... Tousle ran as the golden skeins had run out from the house and into the fields... He caught up with Innes who had hugged and rode off to Wolvingham... Butr first the queen. They met again in a cart... Which was used as a disguise to cover them so they could reach the time to answer the riddle. The miller fianlly stopped at a dead end and parked the cart there. The queen and Innes got out first, and then Tousle. The miller hugged his dear daughter good-bye... And off they went, to answer the riddle.

They passed throught an amazingly large crowd, but they all had their heads down...whispering.

They reached where the king and Lord Beryn was... And Beryn smirked when he saw the queen. He kept asking the king to banish the queen. The queen answered the riddle when Beryn had pushed Innes down.


What fills a hand fuller than a skein of gold?

The answer to the riddle is another hand.


She put held Innes' hand in hers. King had nodded...

Lord Beryn had screamed and picked up a lance to kill Innes, the rightful heir to the king, and threw it. But... Tousle and jumped in front and was stabbed in his arm... When he got hurt, he thought of when he was in the cottage with his da... "this wasn't a dream he said..." and went back on to real life.

Tousle had fallen, and the King had struck down Beryn, who was now dead and had his ashes scattered.

Innes was in the castle... Healing Tousle... When Innes made him laugh, Tousle hurt, but he laughed anyways... Innes said if he was the one who was hurt, TOusle would do the same thing. The two girls that Innes was with in the begining jumped on the bed Tousle was on. No matter how much it hurted, Tousle just smiled. He had this giddly feeling when he saw them. He threw his pillow at them. The two girls squealed.

"Throwing pillows at you eh?" Innes asked.

They all laughed...

They had a celebration at the miller's house, which was fixed with the help of the king. The miller had said that they had seen his father...

Then he father appeared out of no where... And Tousle and his da hugged. The day after that, they said their farewells to them...


Wasn't that a GOOD story?

Lunch - Josh and Jamie got into a fight... Poor Josh (who didn't do anything)... Sat next to Chi... like again... We had a boring chat... I also wrote a note to Robert and asked what happened. I told him to give it to me when he had ELA.

(sorry had to go wash the dishes)

P.E. - We went out walking... With Helen and Jessica... I hugged Helen like, what? Three times? Eh... We also got our Skating 101 thing... Lol... Chi and Helen are doing it... And THey asked me for presents for when I go to Europe to study there...

ELA - We had to go to the magic trick with Ms. McCown's class...

It was okay... I ALSO SAW DOMINQUE AGAIN! Lol... I missed him, and he said he missed my drawings -_-"... Okay...

Math - We did metrics... And stuff... I remembered that rhyme... 'King Henry Died - Drinking Chocolate Milk'... lol

So when I got home.. Travis was baking pie (didn't eat it yet) and when I got on, I hurried to the student ambassadors site and e-mailed them if I could still go to Italy because I got the invite late.

Washed the dishes...

And now here I am, typing about my boring odd day...

Bye, going to go eat pie! If I want... I'm sad now... ;_;
