last day of fc3.
Posted By
Al
last day of friday school was today. it was a good day, though. sam and i were trying to make the last day of friday school the best day of friday school. and we did! well, we tried. i think we succeeded.
calligraphy went pretty good, Mrs. L just let us hang out and pretty much do whatever because it was the last day and she didnt really prepare to bring anything, so she was just like "today you can do anything you want.. just dont mess up the classroom, or leave the classroom." so thats what we did.
and in web design i think i finally learned how to set up my website at home without the help of Jay, which is a good thing. because i was doubting that i would ever be able to figure it out and get it up and running.. but i did. mmmmhm. are you proud of me? im proud of myself. but we got out of web design late because my website suddenly like died and i had to get it all back up and running again and it took like twenty minutes, and plus the rest of the class was having trouble with their websites. so.. we got out like fifteen minutes late and the next class that was waiting for the room was mad at us. but whatever!
and in writer's workshop i showed up late, and with a donut in my hand, so the class wasnt very happy with me. but it was fun, and i got to learn alot about the people in the class that i didnt really know before. good thing? bad thing? i dont really know yet. but i got email addresses and phone numbers and addresses for snail mail, text, and email(: so thats something to be happy about.
but the rest of the day is going to suck. i havent been feeling good, and my computer keeps acting up ever since i downloaded some stupid thing called Oovoo that's supposed to be like chatting back and forth on a webcam - webchat. sorry. forgot. but like, i downloaded it before and then it messed up my computer and so i uninstalled it, but then i forgot and installed it again.. see how my brain works? um. yeah.

Today's Vocabulary
Posted By
Amy
| Dave walked from the office to his car. It had been a grueling day at work. He had been assured that he wouldn't have to fill out extra forms, but the guy who was supposed to do them was sick and he ended up having to do it any way. Then the coffee machine quit working, his chair broke, and the power went out, forcing him to write his business letters by hand. When the power came back on, a multitude of phone solicitors started calling trying to get him to donate to some great cause, and making him feel like a miser because he could only afford to give ten dollars. Dave started the car and pulled out of the parking lot. He called the car repair spot to see how long it would be before his wife's car was done. The newbie employee put him on hold and he had to listen to three minutes and twenty-seven seconds of monotonous "music" before the employee returned and resumed the call. When he got home, his two kids were fighting and his wife was mumbling something about what in the world they'd have for supper. Dave walked up to his wife, told her that they'd have pizza for supper and afterward they would go for a walk and enjoy the serenity of the beach. The children resolved their problem and returned to his and her own pursuits. The day concluded happily. |

Random Happenings
Posted By
Amy
*screams* I had a post all written out (well, all most) and somehow it just disappeared when I tried to add a pic. Oh well. I just had said that we went to the nursing home. Oh, and the ambulance went to the dentist with sirens raging. Hmm... Any other news? Oh yes. We got to watch some yard work people at the nursing home cut a brick. It was pretty neat! Have you ever laid bricks? I haven't but I've always wanted to. Along with building a house. And a bunch of other activities that boys get to do. :-p
Hmm... I guess that's it. Except that we had to buy more milk last night. :-) (see post below) We're probably going to the park on Friday, so I might be back with pics soon.

havent posted.

Al
i havent written anything in like, forever. and if your commenting on my posts and im not replying, shoot me a message or email or something because HSB stopped sending me notifications when i get new comments. anybody know how to fix that problem? because i dont.
im pretty much ready for a jog or something. its almost two and all ive done is school, and had an hour long chat on youtube with this really amazing person. heh. and i have to help at awana tonight.. it really wasnt as bad as i thought it would be last week, so it'll probably be fine. and ill be able to see kassi! which im looking forward too because i didnt get to see her yesterday.. cause she ditched on us for a group meeting instead of coming to youthgroup.
which by the way, was fun. youthgroup, i mean. i talked to kala alot. like about how stupid some guys are and how some people need to like get a life because making other people feel bad about themselves doesnt make them cooool. and then i just hung out with jared and russ for awhile. which was kinda weird. and when jay showed up hannah and i made a b-line for the door, but hannah forgot to actually open the door.. so she just ran right into it. and then jay caught up to us. so i think we failed. |

Milk
Posted By
Amy
Milk is a great substance. Thanks to me, our family goes through almost 1 gallon of milk a day. (that's about as much as the Duggars!  ) I just love milk! You can drink it with everything---even pizza, all though my dad says that you should drink kooliade with pizza. (I'm not a koolaide fan) I drink about 5 or 6 glasses of milk a day. Usually I have one for breakfast, or I have a bowl of cereal with milk in it. Then for lunch I usually have 2 glasses, and 2 for supper also. Sometimes I have one with a snack in the afternoon. Alison says I shouldn't drink so much, but milk gives you strong bones, right?  We have a friend who doesn't like milk. She says it makes her gag. She can drink chocolate and strawberry milk but not regualr. She definantly is missing out. Alison said that I should've had my username be "LecheLover" instead of "booklover". :-) I don't know about that... I'd much rather have books than milk. How much milk do you drink? |
