Friday = A-MAZING

Friday, as you all know, was the high school back-to-school bash. Now Jestar, agan, as you all know, doesn't go to the Woods of Brent anyway, nor is he in high school, but Mr. Lee-Lee was so kind as to let him come to the bash anyway. So my mum said I could stay with the G's until it was time for the bash, and Pressy had a flag-football game that we had to stay and watch. I actually didn't know this; I thought we'd be going to their house. It was kinda stormy at Pressy's game and I was thinking, "Yes! Rain! That would be awesome!" Prissy and I went traipsing around by the gazebo then, getting bored by Pressy's uneventful game, and ran into Snickerz and Kayl-E. Snickerz, upon my request, sent a text to Jestar, telling him to go ahead and come (I had told him to come at 6, when the bash started). Then it started raining :D Snickerz, Kayl-E, Prissy, and I went over to the playground and played gravel (after running around in the woods), which was totally awesome! But after a while, Mr. G came over and stole Prissy (he didn't want her getting wet), so Snickerz, Kayl-E, and I stayed and played for a while. I also ran around with Chris W. for a while....ah, Chris and her CVC pipe...:D Then Jestar came while we were scrambling to save the band stands from the rain and lugging band chairs to safety. Jestar got loaded down with lots of chairs and after Chris made me go talk to Achilles for a while, I didn't see him :O But we finally found him, and Snickerz and Kayl-E made me and him go down to the bleachers to watch the junior high cheerleaders cheer for the junior high flag football team, which was...mildly painful ;) Then Jestar and I decided we wanted to go play gravel on the playground again, but Kayl-E didn't want to, and so therefore, Snickerz didn't want to either. It took lots of persuasion and poking him, but he finally agreed to come! Yay! :D Kayl-E even came too :D We went back to the playground and decided to swing first. This is when Sir Falls-A-Lot reappeared ;) We were swinging and he randomly goes flying off the swing and breaks it! Poor swing! But of course, Jestar exclaims merrily, "That was fun!" and proceeds to try and fix the swing. That doesn't work. And he tries to trick Kayl-E and Chris into sitting on it! *shakes head* ;) A little while later, when we were going back to the swings, he tripped over the wood barrier. Oh, Jestar...After running and skipping through the rain on the way back to the gym, Kayl-E left, and so Snickerz and Jestar and I hung out for a while until he had to go too. Then Jestar and I stood around for about 40 minutes whilst waiting for Sam to get there. When she FINALLY got there, we went back outside for a while and Sam proceeded to call Jestar and I creepy because of all our similarities ( ;) ) and we decided that she's not quite enough like us to be a twin. Keep trying, Sam! Later Sam went on the slip-n-slide and got all bubbly, and then we went inside and creeped on the people singing karaoke. By the way, Khadem singing the Beatles is not a pleasant thing to listen to. My poor ears are scared for life :( Sam and JoJo and I also made Jestar suffer a lot because we took lots and LOTS of pic-a-tures of him. Jestar does not like pic-a-tures, so this made it all the more enjoyable :D I also granted Sam and Jestar certain rights, such as: Jestar could pull her hair and push her, and Sam could take pic-a-tures of him and push him. This made the evening even more fun, watching them push each other. And to make things even better, I had all the rights. And this includes the right to give rights. :D So, in a nutshell, Friday was the BEST DAY OF MY HIGH SCHOOL CAREER THUS FAR

RETREAT!

So today, Sam, TwilightLover, Jazzy, and I head off to the Tehas Camp for our 9th grade retreat. And it's gonna be a-mazing, cause the Tehas Camp has a giant water slide, a zip line, a lazy river, a campfire for all your marshmallow-roasting needs, and lots of other awesome things! We leave at 3 and get back at around 4 tomorrow. (so Jestar, unless I use Sam's phone, I won't be able to talk w/ you :( ) I'll be sure to take lossa pic-a-tures of Sam and I failing at various things and we may post them later for your enjoyment ;)

School

School is miserable for me this year. For one thing, lots of my friends are gone, which makes Skandie very sad. And another thing: WE HAVE TOO MUCH HOMEWORK!!!!!!!!! I mean, seriously, how is all of this going to change my life? Is it going to matter whether or not I know the kingdom, phylum, class, family, order, genus, and species of a spider? NO. All I need to know about that spider is how to kill it. Do I need to know how to find patterns and functions with boxes and how to find the domain, range, independent, and dependent variables in math? NO. Do I need to know that Homer was blind and that the Trojan War took place in 1200 B.C.? NO. Do I need to know Menes united Upper and Lower Egypt and that there was only one female Pharoah in Egypt's history? NO. And I really don't need to be staying up until 10 o'clock EVERY SINGLE NIGHT worrying with this stuff, now do I? People always say, "Live your life like you're gonna die tomorrow", right? Well, how can I if I'm stuck in school all day until I'm over 20 years old?! Oi, I do not understand this crazy world. My plan is to get my books published so that when I get done with high school, I'm done with school forever. I won't even need to go to college, like Christopher Paolini didn't have to...Yes, I like this plan very much. So! To sum it all up - Skandie's not lovin' school this year. AT ALL.
