   Cheese
Hey. Well i'm really bored right now, so I've decided to bless you all with a sample of my wonderful poetry. Today's work is on, you guessed it.. CHEESE!!

Cheese in the morning,
Cheese in the afternoon,
Cheese at night,
Cheese on the moon.

Cheese from a cow,
Cheese from an ewe,
Cheese from a goat,
Cheese is kewl.

Whenever you are hungry,
Grab a slice of cheese.
Cheese is the snack,
That goes down with ease.

Cheese will make you happy,
CHeese can be bent.
Cheese is for everyone,
except the lactose intolerant.

Well, that's about it for now... More terrible poetry coming later!!

   Neh...
Hey everybody, not much today, but guess what?! I finally got to row! YAY!! ok, really not that big of a deal. It wasn't actually that great. Well the initial stepping into the boat wasn't too bad. And then we practiced rowing, which also wasn't too bad. The waves were kinda big because of the wind, which was why we couldn't really go very far away from shore. It was pretty much ok until it started to RAIN!! Ya, it wasn't that much at first, you know, just a few sprinkles there a few here. But then..... BOOM! *thunder and lightning!* ....just kidding. It just started raining. Really Really Hard. So, being smart, we decided to stop and take the boat back in. Now all you people who have rowed before know that to pick the boat up, everyone gets out, reaches over the boat, grabs both ends... and lifts it above their head. Now think about it.

Water in boat.
People raise boat over head
Water falls on peoples' heads.
Not very fun... and the boat is heavy too! After all, yesterday, my arms were sore and all i did was help carry in the boat. O well, so then we all were sandy and wet and we got back onto the bus and everything was happy again. Then I went to my Quiz Bowl meeting, yes i'm such a geek. Of course everyone else there is like super smart, except for Carlen and I of course. Dan knows practically every math and science question, Jamie is just smart, Yuyin's the president and he got into harvard, and Nick knows all but is pissed because Yuyin got into Harvard and he didn't. It's actually quite funny at the meetings. First Yuyin reads questions, then dan, jamie, or usually Nick answers all of them. Jackie and Carlen sit doing nothing. Occasionally Carlen and I answer a random question or two. Then Yuyin goes to another page and Carlen begs him to let her read but he doesn't let her because he want's her to get better at answering questions but carlen says that what's the point she's not going to get any better at it, then Yuyin pauses to consider it, and then after a moments of perspection, gives carlen the questions. Of course by now my fingers are dying so i'll write again some other time...

   History of Religion Project
AHHHH!!!!!!!!! I really have to work on my History of Religion project! Well, it's mainly because i procrastinated way to much. After all, we did have like a month to do it. It's their fault they made two of the weeks Spring Break. Do they expect me to work during my spring break?! I can't do that! That would have totally cut into my tv and do nothing time. WEll, i suppose it is my fault for not starting earlier. I should probably go back to working on it. ....... Later.

So anyways... History of Religion is possibly the most boring class in the history of ... well, religion. haha, here's something funny...

history of religion= HOR= whore class (taken from my friend sydney ^-^)
Well, as long as i'm procrastinating, i might as well tell you about my project. Norse Mythology. They have wonderful stories. I especially love the creation myth. In the beginning.. there was only Muspellheim, the land of fire, Niflheim, land of mist and the dead, and the Ginnunagagap (my new favorite word). Then the fire and ice mixed and created Ymir the giant and his cow Audhulma. Form Ymir's armpit sweat, man and woman were created. The hungry Audhulma licked at the ice and uncovered Buri, the frost giant. And all the gods and goddesses came from them. ... How delightful...

Crew (rowing)
.... eh.... so tired. ok, better explain. Today, I went to crew (rowing) in hopes of going to the lake to row, because of the beautiful weather and all. So we all got onto the bus and were all having a great time, when suddenly our coach tells us that he forgot the keys to our boat locker in his car, which his wife drove away. So guess what we had to do instead? no? ok, i'll just tell you then. We RAN. yes that's right, we RAN. I am not supposed to run. not because of some health problem or whatever, I just can't run. it's like a mental thing, if i have to run, my brain shuts off and I fall down. Which is why I chose crew (rowing) in the first place. Because I figured that we wouldn't do much running. (due to the fact of us being on the water, which is no place to run unless you're Jesus) But no matter how much I complained that my body was made for other things than running, like sitting or sleeping, or eating. So we ran. It actually wasn't that bad! But, i learned today that there is actually something worse than running! I know, it's suprising. It's called Step Aerobics and it was invented by bored coaches whose only joy in life is to torture and tire out the poor children in there care. I know it might sound wimpy, but climbing a whole bunch of stairs doesn't seem that hard... until you realize that each step is 2 feet high.. Then we had to HOP up the steps. Yes, HOP. I think they were trying to honor the Easter Bunny with that exercise. He must be really fit though, cause hopping is harder than it looks. Especially if you hop up and down 2 feet stairs. And I'm one of those physically weak people who can only do a little before becoming soaked with sweat and all red. I was flooding sweat at the end and hotter than a blue dwarf star. Well then the hard part was over and we had to do situps and such. Except for the lower-ab crunches, everything was pretty much ok then. And then I went over to the dining hall to eat. Never go eat at the boy's dining hall. THey have the worst food!
I ended up eating corn. CORN! That was the only food that i could identify! uh... well that was a tiring day. I should work on my homework. Procrastination can be bad sometimes. Talk to you later!
