Looking back...

     I remember one specific moment about 6 years ago, when I was in 1st grade.  My class and I were taking a field trip to the zoo, and we were on the school bus.  (My mommy :) was a chaperone. )  And I was talking to my mom.  I was asking her if I was going to graduate this year like we did in Kindergarten.  And she said no.  I asked her when.  She said at the end of 5th, 8th and at the end of High School.  5th Grade!?  That would be like, 4 more years!!!!!  I would never make it!  And now, I'm  almost a 7th Grader!!!  1 year from graduating AGAIN.  If I had seen myself NOW, at that time, I would be like, a big person!
     
       Strange memory... I don't even know why I remembered that.  I mean, why THAT?

12 and a Half!!!

   See if you guys can guess what 12 and a Half means to me TODAY.  First place winner gets...

  Today is Memorial Day!!!!  No school, and no work.  What are all of you guys going to do today???  We just got back from Pennsylvania last night, so we are just chillin'.  Anyways, I hope everybody has a GREAT Memorial Day!

Sneak Preview of Future Book (maybe)

      I walked down the empty halls.  I had an eerie feeling.  Something about walking around alone, while the lights seem to get dimmer and dimmer, always gives me the creeps.  It's like what you would see in a horror film.
     "Allie!" I jumped a mile.  I had thought the school was empty.
     "Allie, wait up!" I didn't know who was calling me.  So, I did the sensible thing.  I ran.  I sprinted.  All the way to Mr. Wilkonsin's classroom.  Mr. Wilkonsin's biology class had always made me feel at home.   I understood what he was talking about.  It wasn't like learning a foriegn language.  (Which is WAY harder than what you might think.)  I squatted in the far corner, and tried to remain quiet.  Then, I replayed the voice over and over in my mind.  It started to seem vaguely familiar.
    "Allie? Where are you?"  I didn't speak.
    "Allie! It's me, Kim."  Bits of my mind finally started to find their places.  I knew that name.
    "Remember me?  From Miss Jonie's third grade?  We were best friends."
    I crept out of my hiding place.  Kim was my best friend.  She had moved away during the summer and had left me crying for weeks.
     "Kim?" I stammered.
     "Allie!" She cried.  "Why did you run?"
     "I...I didn't know it was you.  What are you doing here?" I managed.
      "Looking for you of course!"  Kim said happily.  "What are you doing here?"
      "I forgot something in my locker.  But I got it." I lied.
      "Okay, then let's get out of here.  This place is starting to give me the creeps." 


   Like? Dislike?  (Be honest.)  Corrections?  Suggestions?

Guess What?

        It's Friday, again.  That's what.

          YAYYYYYYYY!

SOL Day!!!

   Today I took my Reading SOL.  And I am kind of worried.  I wasn't sure about 2 of the questions...  But, otherwise I think I did a good job.  Good Luck to anyone taking an SOL tomorrow, or the next day, or the day after that, or WHENEVER YOU'RE TAKING ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yummy...

Red- Hair???

    Today, I was asked twice, How did I get my red hair?  Well, the first time I was annoyed, because, I really don't have some "Scientific Explanation."  Plus, I get asked that question too many times, and whenever I tell them, I feel like I'm bragging... And I don't mean to be.  Well, anyways, I said, "Um... from my mom???"  Then she laughed.  Only, I don't know why... :)  And, the second time, I just ignored them... I guess that was kind of mean...  Was it?

The week is finally over!

   I  don't know ANYBODY who doesn't like Fridays.  Fridays are a way of showing you that you have made it through the week, you're still alive, and that it is time for RELAXATION!!!  (Unless you didn't finish all the things you needed to get done...)  I feel like we need another chorus of "Friday"...

    Task:
- Give your mom and/or Grandma a big hug today.
- Don't forget that this Sunday is Mother's Day!!!!
- Tell what you got/made for your mother in the comments below.  (That is, after you give it to them...)

Picture Day

    ... is my least favorite day of the year.  Especially when I get grumpy photographers.  ..."Turn your head this way!  No, that way!  Too much, go back! Not that much!!!!" 

Once Upon A Time...

     I fell asleep on the school bus.  And then, all of a sudden... BAM! Red light!  Next thing I knew, I was leaning forward with my head rammed into the seat in front of me. The end.

DISHWASHER

    I don't know if any of you guys knew, but we've been living without a dishwasher for a little over a month.  And it has been REALLY hard.  After dinner had become my least favorite part of the day.  Each night we would spend an hour or more washing dishes.  So, every 3 nights, it would be my tun to wash.  The next day I would dry and put away.  Then, the next, I would clear the table.  That meant every 3 nights I would have dried-out hands.  And I hate having dried-out hands.  So, in conclusion, we LOVE our new dishwasher.
