Augh!!!!! I do believe that latin is going to be the end of me. We hates it, my precious. (lol) I don't think that I'm going to like highschool much. One good thing, though, is that i start a new small group at church. My youth pastor is leading it. He is so cool. Anyhoo, aimless ranting...... If you recall, i mentioned that I am taking vioce lessons. There is a recital that I have to do, and I'll be singing "On My Own". I can't spell the musical that it is from, otherwise I'd have put it down. I can't wait. I'll probably be really nervous when the time comes, but until then, I shall be excited. Well, I do think that is it. My grand parents fly out to visit my aunt and her fam in England on Thursday. have a wonderful week!!!! valerie <3 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/valerieluvschocolate/591022/ Tue, 16 Sep 2008 16:41:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/valerieluvschocolate/591022/ there is so much updating i need to do, i don't know where to begin!!!! kinda sad, really....... anyhoo...... i don't know if i mentioned this before, but my dad's parents are here, visiting from africa. they are missionaries there, and no, they are not african themselves. my grandpa is british, and my grandma is french. they have been here for about a month and a half, or 2 months. something like that. they leave on september. i am doing a new homeschool thing called classical conversations, so this past week i've been preparing for that. i'm wishing that peter pan could take me to neverland............ pointless wish, but nonetheless, i still want it to happen. for those of you keeping up with my story (what i've blogged, anyway) rest assured, i am planing on putting new chapters in. can't say when, though. might be a while. idk.  and i think that is it. i really need a nap before i go. ah!!! that reminds me. i'm taking voice lessons, too. forgot to mention that, obviously. well, i am going to sign off now. enjoy whatever is left of your summer!!!!! valerie http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/valerieluvschocolate/578240/ Thu, 21 Aug 2008 12:28:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/valerieluvschocolate/578240/ wow! i haven't been on here for a while!! well, here's what i've been up to..... : i'm reading the history of the lord of the rings. it's quite interesting. i'm playing softball. we had a double header yesterday, and we won the first one. unfortunatly, it was the only one that we won. my grandparents are coming to visit us this thursday. they're missionaries in africa, but they're not african themselves. they'll be staying with us for two months. i have a facebook now!!!!!!!! yippee!!!!!!! and that's about it. sorry i'm kinda've boring........ valerie http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/valerieluvschocolate/558075/ Tue, 8 Jul 2008 06:48:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/valerieluvschocolate/558075/
