my trip to the dentist!

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Guess what happend to me today?

I went to the dentist to get my teeth cleaned and then later on i pulled two for my "I Teeth" out. I was so surprised it did not hurt that bad. :) They gave me Laughing Gas(only it did not really make me laugh, it made me happy and relaxed.) and then my dentist (Dr. Pete) told me a poem about clouds. and he stopped in the middle of it and asked, "Are you sure you want to hear the rest?" I said " YES!" so he went on and on and on until i was about numb enough and relaxed. It was a awesome poem, i enjoyed it! and he told me a quote, ( i was scared to get my teeth pulled because i have never done that before and i have had 0 cavities! go me!) and it was by Martin Luther King "Those who are scared of Death, are afraid to live their life." and when you apply it to your own situation it gives you confidence,(well at-least for me it does.)

My mom was scared for me. But Dr.Pete just kept telling me to trust him and he would never do anything to hurt me, he is realy nice. (He wants to go see one of my choir concerts sometime, cool huh? I have been going there since i was 2)...Honestly i would not have trusted anyone else but him to do it.i am proud of myself! I did not cry!!!!! thats pretty good for me, considering( if you do not know this already about me) I am terrified of Doctors Offices and Hospitials. Even though they are there to help me i can't stand going there. I think it is because form when i was a baby i was born 2 months early(pre-mature) i got pricked with needles a lot reason 1- so i was healthy and reason 2-so i did not have any illnesses. so instead of being born in August my birthday would be in October, burrrrrrrrrrrr!

just kidding,
okay well i am going to go now. Goodnight everybody!

Love,
Amanda!

Thursday, November 02, 2006

wow- it started out about nothing and turned into something, how cool is that?

I wanna say something right now, but you see the thing is, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO SAY! i am sooooooooooooooooooooo tired. It finally started to rain today. *sigh* welcome to Vancouver Washington in the winter.......its freezing COLD! i wake up early so when i walk to the bus the coldest its ever been was about 24 degrees. yeah thats cold!

School:

Our Varsity Football Team is................... N.B.L.C (nothin' But Lead Champions) yayayayayayay!

We made it to state finals and i think we are 4th in state! *Achoo, Achoo* (Excuse me, i sneezed.)

Random:

What would you say if someone asked you what random means? there is really no explanation for it...... even I the one and only GREAT GREAT AMANDA does not know. (lol, sorry i was having fun)

You know what i just thought of..... I am pretty much talking to myself when i am typing this because i don't think anyone i know reads it frequently enough to keep up with me. lol- hmm, i wonder if anyone reads it.... well i know some people do because i ask them 2. and see here i go again just rambling(*tee-hee* i got that from emily its kinda fun to say and type, i LUV U EMILY!) on and on and on and on.

Cheer:
It turns out we have our first Cheer competition on either Dec.2nd or 12th something with a 2. that is awesome! we are doing a JAM-FEST COMPETITION! OMG THAT IS SOOOO COOL! JAM-FEST is a BIG BIG BIG competition. we have never gone before. and were also going to nationals. i will type the list of them later.

Homework:
I really don't have a lot of homework. Its the end of this Semister already. instard of having trimesters we have semisters. I really don't see why the VANSD changed it but who cares.

School/Classes:

1st-Science/ working on a color lab, we have color wheels and we spin them and observe what color we see and write it down, we have to do a whole Lab write-up those are not fun espicially when its a lot of pts.

2nd & 3rd-Tech & Lit/ working on a project. (book project) its a really fun project though, i don't know how to explain it. and in Lit. we have a test, STUDY!!!!!!

4-th-Math/Have a Test tomarrow on Module 3 GOTTA STUDY!

5th-Choir/ there is like no Homework in that calsee, the songs we are singing is..... "Harambee", "Carol of the Bells", "Winter Carol" , " O come, O come Emmanuel" yeah thats it. their pretty coolsongs, i don't really like "Harmbee" its swahili(jamician sound to it)

6th-ASL/
We just finished our quarter projece, we had to memorize a SCARY Urban Legend(for halloween) and present it to the class, you take out words such as, like, it, to, he, she, the, they, ect. and yeah i went up and presented and i did horible! well it was not that bad, we had to present it infront of a camera, YIKES! Camera+me=BAD, very nervous.
We had to write a 1 page reflection because my teacher did not think i did it, but right as he said that my video came on the T.V. and he scored me and i got a 90/100 halleiugh. i got saved by an angel. i thought i was going to get only 50% because i did not know the whole thing or all my words. yeah i was really scared about my grade today. so i hope it all turns out good.

As far as GRADE wise i am doing realy good in all my classes except for math i think. i have like a C- or C+ i am not sure. but we have a test tomarrow and i am praying that i get a much better score on this one than my previous tests.

I will chat with ya'll later,

Sorry if i bored you with school stuff in all.

School Sports:
For Cheerleading we have to try out this year to get on the team next year. the tryouts are in May. i wanna try out for VARSITY but i am not sure if i can make it on there or not. i have cheered for 4 years....and i don't know. There was only one sophmore on it this year..... so i am going to try out for Varsity and cross my fingers i make the team.

Skyview also has a compettive Cheer team, so if they are good i will probally join skyviews cheer team, and compettive and quit VCA.

But only i really don't want to quit VCA because its where i started from and i don't know, i like it there. but you never know skyview cheer might be more fun. Varsity is a really good team!

OK seriously now i will shut up! BYE BYE!

Last night:Trey Foote

Last NIGHT:
It was tori's Birthday party.
Before that: I had a chior concert to go to. It was fun! and after that i left early to go to toris house so we could go to the skyview V.S. Battle Ground game.!!!!!!!!!!!! it was so sweet, it we came at like the middle of 3rd quarter only because my chior concert was late. and i think they should have canceled it because of whats going on this week and the football game is important!
At the end of the game everyone ran out on the field! and we got in this BIG CIRCLE (more like a huddle with 100's of people!) and we nealed down so Mr.Little could say a few words. It was sad. We took a moment of silence for Trey. after that treys dad Jim Foote said " Keep him in your hearts forever." so their idea was that we(everyone 100's of people) got flashlights and shined them up to trey and as we were doing that we were singing
na-na-na-na na-na-na-na hey-hey-hey goodbye! and then we got quieter and softer and then we all just started to hum it. and i am pretty sure i was the only one who saw it but i saw a shooting star in the sky. I wanted to cry more but for some reason i couldn't, i don't like that feeling.
Once we got home we watched the news and they all had brief news stories.
Honestly i did not know him but form this week i fell like i have known him for most of my life. The Foote family is so brave. Their family is really nice.

Friday at School:
At 1:00 (almost end of 5th per) we had a circle assembly.
circle assembly-where the whole school gathers around the balcony and downstairs floor. we all listen to Mr. Little, normally its before a game.
That day we took a moment of silence. you could just tell that everyone was sad. then at the end everyone got in a big circle in the middle of the cafiteria around the football players and at first i thought they were saying.....
"We will pray, we will prey, we will prey, for God."
and then they started to get louder and louder and i thought they were saying
"we will prey, we will prey,we will prey for trey!" (i started crying)
but what they were really saying is............
"WE'RE READY, WE'RE READY, WE'RE READY FOR YA'LL" After we were done chanting that Mr.Little said "okay lets give a Skyview shout-out to Trey one last time! GIVE ME AN "S" (S) GIVE ME AN "H" (H) GIVE ME AN "S" (S) WHATS THAT SPELL? SHS,SHS,SHS,SHS. GO STORM!"
I was so sad i could not even chant. this week has just been really rough alone. not very fun.
so yeah, aparently i have bad hearing. and it was sad. i cried going to 6th period.
It was all over the news. its pretty cool in a sad way. and then also in the huddle we started saying
"WE LOVE TREY! WE LOVE TREY WE LOVE TREY"
Last night was a very special night.
We love you and miss you trey. :)
-The skyview family.

Thats all for now.

Love,
Amanda

Today was a sad day at school.

Trey Foote passed away, : ( But we know he is in a better place now where he is free of pain, and happier where he is now. He will be watching down as we look up.

It was hard to get through the school day today. He will be a LEGEND in SKyview History Forever!!!!

A Lit. Vocab. test (10 words) I also need to study for that too!

-Amanda

It makes me feel sad that i never told Trey or Amanda what that guy said, if you look at my blog the previous page, or under this one... i don't know.

Coach Kiezer(Head football coach) and Mr.Little (principal) were very sad. I wonder how Mr.Grey is doing- he also coached football.

I send my BEST OF WISHED to their family. Were all here for you! :)
*Hugs*

weekend update!

*sigh*(of relief! Finally its the weekend!)
Friday-
I went to the last home game for SHS, it was sweet. i have 2 stories to tell you.
#1- it seems like every time i go to Kiggins(home to SHS), i have tripped on the stairs, last time i fell on my butt and then tripped going up the stairs and THIS time i tripped down, like i went down slowly. it is hard to explain becasuse i did not really fall i just stepped wrong.
`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
#2- There is this Varsity Football player named Trey Foote, he has cancer and about a week ago the doctors said he was fine until this week and said he was not doing well and would not have long to live, he goes around in a wheelchair most of the time. Because of his cancer he can't play football so about 3 games ago they retired his jersey and he was done for the season. But he comes to everygame and sits in his car watching. Its really sweet. Everyone bought these t-shirts at school (including me) that says TREY(in white and navy-dark blueish color background, of the other way around, blue words and white shirt) and it was $12.00, the money went to MAKE A WISH FOUNDATION!!!! so i bought one. :) honestly i have never met trey in person i have only met his sister, Amanda Foote(tee-hee, she has the same name...) she is so nice. She is Proud of her brother and thinks he is a wonderful inspration.
I went to the game with Kendall, KImberly, and Ashley, then met up with Savannah and Sarah, after the game is over everyone runs across the feild to the players who are VARSITY IS UNDEFEATED!!!! GO SHS!!!! N-B-L-C (nothin but lead champions!) after that all players run over to treys car and one by one they shake his hand and people form a line that can go across the whole field to say hi, its sweet. and people were chanting "WE LOVE TREY, WE LOVE TREY!" and it was cool. he will be a legend in SHS for a long long long time!
When KImerly, Kendall and I were walking back to the car this random guy asked
"Hey!, ya'll know Trey?"
"Um no, but we know his sister." said K,K,A(Kimberly,Kendall, Amanda=me lol)
"Well, can you give him this message and say it was from Miko?"
"Yeah sure!" K,K,A
"Please let trey know that i'm praying for him and i hope when he dies he goes to heaven and god will take care of him. I am thinking about him, GOOD Luck. !"
"Aww that is so sweet, we'll tell him that."
That made us all want to cry. There was even a news special about him, it was touching.
Oh yeah, Kendall slept over...we had fun!
````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Today-(Saturday)
Kendall and I slept in till about 10 surprisingly, it felt gooood! then we went to stevens soccer game, then to costco,then home, then to the schools so my dad could run and kendall and i could walk the dogs and play on the playground, came home, were bored for a while, and ate a yummy dinner!
Because it was my grandmas( we call her nonnie) birthday October 10th, but we celebrated it tonight, and a bunch of our family came over,
Nonnie,Annie Granny & Papa, Uncle Tim and Susie, stevens friend Kyle and my friend Kendall and mom, dad and steven and me! My mom made her yummy yummy yummy lasagna. and then we had a really yummy choclate cake, OMG its the best, normally i don't like rich choclate but that just hit the spot.
***OMG when we were @ costco they had free samples everywhere, and one of them was Fried Potstickers, those are da'bomb! OMG i have never had a fried on before. i love chicken potstickers. a great place to get them is Henrys Tavern(restruant downtown).*YAWN* i am starting to get tired. its 11:55 PM lol, i still have math homework to do..... sigh, i will do it tomarrow. Here are some pictures of Promotion for 8th grade last year, sorta... its not new years yet. :p lol!

This is Mrs.Shilling and me, She is sooooo sweet. i like her a lot, I remeber on that day she said " I don't know if anyone has told you this but your a very special girl who is so nice, and she added somehting else,i forgot" she is so nice. i miss her. someday i'll go say hi again when i have time or how about when i can drive, yeahhh that would be good. thats gonna be sweet when i drive!!!!!!!!!
This is Max and Me, he was really funny, i was taking pictures of my friends and he randomly decides he wanted to take a picture so i am like okay....? what ever, so yeah he is always hyper. He was in my choir class for two years, i think 7th and 8th grade.

tired and felt like sayin hi *(Again)*

I am tired........... and i really don't know why i am on the computer.

I watched Mattea for a bit tonight. I watched "Curious George The Movie" with her. I LOVE THAT MOVIE. its so adorable! and after that we went upstairs and started to watch "Dinosaurs" but she was getting scared so then we decided to put in "Blues Clues Sing Along" so i was on the couch and she crawled up on my lap, and started to fall asleep. Chris said i could leave any time just let him know, so i was like "Ok" and then Mattea started to drift to sleep and i was like i will just wait until she falls asleep to leave because i was tired, so i kinda went to sleep. but then i woke up and they walked me home. I did not turn off my Alarm Clock so i woke up at 5:50!!!!!!!!!!! OMG- that is so not cool when its a weekend... then i got up and turned it off and woke up again at 10:40ish.
(I am kinda going Backwards in the day)
Mattea and I did a lot of Chalk and it was soo cool. We filled up the whole driveway pretty much. it was fun. and we played Hide-n-Seek and yeah just had a lot of fun!

I called Morgan and Maddy today,They all seem to be doing good. It was nice to talk to them. I honestly wonder if they think about me as much as i think about them. i think about them everday and miss them, when i went to texas i did not want to leave because i already felt like i was living at home. its nice to know i have support everywhere from family-to-friends and i met another family that was their neighbors and they are so nice.... almost like a family to me too. okay i am like seriously tired so GOODNIGHT!
Love,
Amanda

SKYVIEW!!!!

Yeah!!!!!!!!! so i went to the SKYVIEW game tonight agaist EVERGREEN(booo, evergreen=our Rival, River is our other rival) the sad thing is that this was the 1st game i have been too this year. sad huh?? (Varsity Game, skyview 36 evergreen 14 HAH!!!! we UNDEFEATED! GO SHS)

** one of the varsity football players is sick, his name is Trey Foote, I am not quite sure about how long he has had cancer but yeah. its like in his leg and he can't play...but he goes to every game only he sits in his car and watches it. I have been hearing people say he has not been doing well. :( so they (people @ school) are selling Trey shirts that have his Jersey # on the back. so it was like $12.00 and i said the only several reasons i will get it is because Trey, SUpport Make a wish foundation( i believe thats what its called) and to just have School spirit! honestly i don't even know him, but just from the stories i have heard he seems like a nice guy. :)

***Skyview chant thing: oh yeah its called a FIGHT SONG!( i forgot for a moment!)
Hail! To the Victors Valiant,
Hail! To the conquering Heros,
Hail! Hail! To Skyview High,
The Leaders and the Best!
Hail! Brave defenders,
Hail! To the storm so mighty
Hail! Hail! to skyview high,
The CHAMPIONS of the west!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
S-H-S, S-H-S, Go-FIGHT-WIN*repeats all over and over again till we wanna stop.!*
Its stuck in my head.
Tah dah-pretty sweet huh? yay i am so happy its the weekend. i am like mega tired, school is too early and it should have never been made this way to be so early!!!!

Oh and i think tonight SHS is going to be on FOX News or umm what channel, o darn i forgot. for our spirit assembly today they were filming us and they said we were going to be brodcasted on T.V cool huh? this is awesome!!!!! maybe i should turn it on and go see. i dunno.

Later i went and sat with my neighbors, Marty,Karla,Carly,Joe,Riley,Jody,Brenda and Gairn, and yeah thats it, and every time the fight song would come on riley would get up and dance shes so adorable and cute! she knew the cheers too. it was funny.
I am thinking about doing cheer next year at SHS, like all the varsity are seniors and they are all leaving so they will need more poeple, and this year there is one sophmore on there and i think i can make it on the VARSITY TEAM, and hopefully by next year i will have a round-off Back-Handspring- Back Tuck!!!

Well yeah thats my story for tonight. BYE!!!!!!
-Night night,
Amanda

Just my life and I

Camping was pretty fun with the Girl Scout Troop. We got to see a 600 year old tree. it was HUGE!!!!!!!!! um, we did this awesome hike, i think it was called mire Lake(Pronounced- Meer)and apparently it should be a mild flat hike, psh, what ever. i found it kinda hard. even mom and the other girls hotught so too.
Its our Tradition on the way to Girl Scout Camp to stop at The Toilgate Inn, for dinner, they have the best burgers. Mmmm, i love them. and on the way home we stop at A&W's. i love that place. its so awesome.
School was fun this week,(1 day left, lol) its SPIRIT WEEK!
monday-Layers Day
Tuesday-Personal Flotation device day
Wednesday- Wacky Day
Thursday-COLOR WAR (Freshman=Orange)
Friday-Power day(wear school colors)
hmmm, its kinda late so i am losing my train of thought. :( its 9:22( i know, i know... your all thinking its not that late but when you wake up at 5:50 AM it sure is)
Tomarrow is a BIG game for Skyview Football we going againist EVergreen, Its played somewhere called the Kiggings Bowl.... i have no been to a game at all this year. i know sad huh? well i have either been babysitting, Cheerleading, or who knows what. and my brother got to go to the 1st big game of the year. (CR VS SHS) i was so mad about that. but o well....
I want to write more, but i have nothing really to say.... well i do but i can't think at the moment. i will put some more pictures up soon!!! so yeah. um, i think i am going to go to bed. o yeah Homecomming is this weekend. i did not get asked, but thats no surprise right now, but i did not really feel like going.*sigh* i'm getting sleepy, but i don't wanna go to bed but i should, ugh....so many decisions! well really this time i promise i am for sure going to bed.

Hey, guess what? i wrote a song yesterday. I am so proud of it. i wrote it in 1 day! i think i called it "Watching You Sleep" its always hard to get the right pitch when you can't write music.(well i can, i can also read it but i don't know exactly what keys are what...) i will try to post it later.
see i forgot again.................... *sigh* i swear i am like dory, i want to be dory for halloween! cool huh?
um yesterday i got locked out of my house, someone left the key pad open to the gorage(can't spell) and all the doors were locked so i went over to my neighbors and chilled for a bit and played with Mattea. i had fun. :)
Its so hard to picture little girls i know grown up, i wish they would stay that way. like morgan and maddy and mattea just everyone. i'm sure thats how parents feel. and like its sad because i don't get to see morgan and maddy on a daily or every other day basis and watch them grow, i will only see them about once or twice a year. possibly 3, you never know.....Yup, this is when i know i am really tired, i can't think and my hands hurt!

Ok-ish Day~


Well my day has gone Ok-Ish, i have been in a somewhat BAd mood, like before school(in the mornings when getting ready) and someitmes at random i'll be fusterated. like in science teacher. (Mrs.Farnsworth) shes crazy!!!!!!! here are some of the things on how class goes;.......
1-If anything is written in pen its a ZERO 2-only use pencil and colored pencil 3- does not explain directions well 4-IS MEAN~ yeah , i have science 1st per. and when i am in a bad mood science is not a fun way to start the day. :(
Cheer Practice- Practice wasn't that bad tonight. We Jumped,Stunted,Danced, typical stuff. Its all good. : )
I am missing my M&M's sooooooooo much tonight. its weird. sometimes i will just have my moments. when i am like i just really need them here with me. It takes a lot more than words to discribe what their family means to me. Everyday i think about them, i remember to a special moment and play it over in my head again like it was happening now. (I wish)
I have been like listening to my ipod soooooo much. i don't know why i am just like in this music crave. i don't know what else to call it.
School- Tomarrow is a 2 hour late start. yesss, that rocks. so school starts at 9:30 it origingally starts at 7:30 that is crazy early.
Classes-
1-Science 2-Adv.Tech 3-Litature 4-Math(i swear he reminds me so much of morgan and maddys dad, he even loks like him, its kinda cool and weird in the same way,) 5-Choir 6-ASL

Yup thats my schedule. i eat lunch around 10:35-11:05 I have 1st lunch. High School is pretty cool..... i guess.lol.
Our Girl Scout Troop is going camping this weekend. Some-where by Mt.Hood i think its called road-ah-den-dron i can't spell it. :p lol, yeah, its always fun camping with the troop. we have so much fun. Many people quit by HS. but i am proud to say i am a Girl Scout. i have been in it for 8 years. since I was in 2nd grade.
hmmm, what else to add....*gosh I don't know*
I wish our neighborhood was still the same as it was 4 years ago. we all knew each other so well( we kinda do now) But so many people have moved and everything has changed. ( I am NOT a persone who likes CHANGE) i miss the old bench under the trees, Our old neighbors, and when you would come home from school you could look foward to seeing little kids that adore you. like one time i was comming home form school and Morgana and Maddy ran up to me and gave me a BIG hug. awww, those were the good old days. yepp, I am not complaining with my life now, i am just putting out there that everything is different.

Well gotta go, I have to watch the Season Primere of Gilmore Girls!!!!!!!!

sad day- we can only hope for the best.

So about 2 days ago i found out my cousins Grandpa-Jerry, is not doing ver well. he is sick. He has Stomach Cancer and by the time they found it it was to late and he also has alz timers.(can't spell) so yeah. And yesterday i found out that hes not strong enough to live. so now were all waiting. I feel so bad for Maxine(his wife), Uncle Rick(Jerrys son) , and jordan (jerrys grandson), and cassie and Auntie Ven and Uncle Walt. Honestly i only met him a few times and i am not related to him, but still. Family and friends are all the same. Its hard for my cousin because He lost his mom(my auntie) and its so hard to explaing the feeling in words n a blog. Cause i know who's ever reading this probally does not understand how i process it in my mind. I miss my Auntie K.

I wrote this for Jerry:

If only you knew what it feels like. To have a secret you can't tell. You have a life filled with joy until now. its hard to imagine how many years life can overcome. With love and compasion you have friends all above.A prayer each night can only give us visual sight,
A intake on what its likfe after we rise to the clouds. Why now? Why you? At this time love can only be spread by a prayer that sends a letter to the heart. We can only wish for the best.
Dear Lord,
I pray that everyone who is with you to be safe.
To give people a second chance in life.
I pray that our hidden secrets will be revealed,
To all be taken seriously.
Give those who rise a second perspective of life.
I pray that you teach people to have no regrets,
They were not the cause.
The effect was so sudden.
There are things in life we can not understand,
And thats why we come to you.
In you name we praise.
Amen.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

9-16-06( I have no idea what else to title this so yeah,)

well it finally started raining about Thursday. We have not had rain for a long time so it was pouring really hard and then Hail.... Even some Thunder & Lightning. I am scared of it. its still going on today(Saturday)....but only the rain. there are dark clouds, a slight drizzle, and yeah- i find it depressing weather. I might as well get used to it I do live in a state that rains all the time.
I was so excited the other dya i came home from school and thought well- i will Give calling M&M one more time.(Someting was wrong with their mechine) and they answered! I was happy. I sure miss them. I wish we had weather like they have in Texas. Its so nice.
Last night i watched Mattea for about 9 hours. I think from about 5-1:30 ish Kiki was in Vegas and he plane got delayed...so thats why i was there till 1:30 and Mattea fell asleep about 10:30ih-11 so i decided i would go to sleep too. Only i was not comfortable in the chair i was in so i slept on the couch and around 12ish she woke up wandering where her mom was. so i let her sleep with me. I was really tired because its hard waking up at 6 every morning so i was tired at about 8. and when kiki came home i was asleep (mattea fell asleep on my arm.) so when she knocked on the door i sat up and was like whos at the door this late...and as i was walking to the door my eyes were like barly open. So i went home, went to bed and sorta slept in until 8:40. I guess thats considering sleeping in for me now.Yeah- thats the story about last week,

I am so so so so SO happy its the weekend. YAY!!!!!!! soooo yeah. BYE!!!!

today will forever be remembered!!!!

We all know that today is the 5th year in rememberance of 9/11 attack. Millions of people around the U.S were effected in all kindas of ways. I know i was and heres my story:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In my last blog i told you about my Auntie Yolie and that shes a flight attendant and she lives in hawaii,,,, so yeah this is about her. Her flight pattern (i'm guessing... i don't really know for sure) is from Hawaii, To Boston, To New York ( she goes all over.... this is just what i think the pattern was) and she was going to be on that plane that crashed into the Twin Towers but at Last Minute the night before they had her switch to a different flight. She lost a lot of her friends. I am very greatful that she is still here and its amazing that she got a change at last minute. But why? how come all the other people wern't safe. It makes no sense. Well thats my story.

I honestly think we should have this day off as a holiday.None of us really know what happend that day except for one. This guy documented a film about 9/11 he had a camera with light and was able to get footage and follow the firefighters around. it was on ABC and was a special and i was in tears. its crazy. You know what i never really realized that so many people and families lost each other. Not just the firemen, but the thousands of people that were in both of the towers and the plane and all the families that never found out or were able to have a funeral for their loved ones.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm sick. I stayed home from school today. I have a stuffy nose and yeah- i am just a little out of it. Being sick is not fun. theres not much to do either. For this year at school i am taking classes:
1-Science
2-Technology
3-English 9
4-Math
5-Choir
6-ASL(American SIgn Language) its really cool. the only reason i am not doing spanish is because in 7th grade we had a option if we took Spanish for 7th and 8th grade we would get 1 credit in foregin language. but i decided i did not want to do spanish so i took art and choir(7th) and choir and Drama(8th) and ASL is really cool. I recomend it to any one who has the option to take it.
hmmmm, what else is there to talk about...gosh, i can't think about anything else.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yesterday or waityesterday was sunday it was saturday!(2days ago) we had a party and a neighborhood clean up thing. so after we had a BBQ and everyone was hangin ous. Jess came over to laurens that night and Lauren, Jess and myself were just hangin out with anthony. We went to his backyard and we decided to teach jessica how to do a cartwheel. NAd she was SO CLOSE. we had fun. then later lauren and anthony left so it was just Jess and I so i kept teaching her and telling her different ways and she almost had it. it was cool. She taught me how to do a back-bend so now its my turn to teach her. Yup we had fun. that night was when i started to get sick. Yeah..........it sucks!
