I have had a pretty busy day today. I forgot to set my alarm clock last night, so I slept late this morning (I thought that my parents were trying to wake me up early for some odd reason . . . oops.). So I've been tired all day. For some reason, whenever I sleep late, I'm sleepy the whole day. 
We also had Biology class today, so my mom, my sister, and I went into "clean-up" mode. See, one Tuesday out of every month, my family hosts a Homeschool Biology class. Three of the students (Christopher, Vicky, and Missy(my sister)) have the same curriculum, while Douglas and I have different ones. Mr. Steve, Vicky's dad, comes over to our house to do experiments from Christopher, Vicky, and Missy's curriculum, but Douglas and I join in even though we don't have that curriculum. It's actually pretty fun for me, but everyone else thinks it's boring. Today, though, we got to look at bacteria through a microscope, so the two guys were a little bit interested. We also went outside and found two mushrooms and looked at those, too.
While we were having Biology class, the moms went to Costco. We finished the class before they got back, so I invited everyone upstairs to play video games. Vicky asked to get on my computer to check her email, so I let her get on. She stayed on the whole time, because she only gets a certain time each week to get on the computer at her house (Her family's usually busy). When the moms got back, they made all the kids carry in groceries. Then everyone except Vicky and her parents went home. Vicky stayed about a half-hour longer, then she went home.
Before Biology, I had to do Geometry. Wait, that made it sound like I didn't enjoy it. I actually enjoyed the first lesson of my new Geometry book (I just got it yesterday). 
Well, I'm going to see how far I can get on FFX now. See ya! ~Rachel |
