Bike

I tried to ride mom's bike yesterday and I had a bad fall. I hurt my ankle. Practice makes perfect, though.

Jujitsu!

That is today's word of the day. Last night for supper we had borscht! ANd again for breakfast. Yummy in my tummy. And with butterflied chicken with lemon and rosemary for dinner.

Library Book

I still can't find my library book, even though I tipped over my bed to look under it. Today the library people called to say I have overdue material, and no one asked if I wanted help looking for it.

EAST COAST!

Woohoo! Today is Kolbe's b-day and our new priest came to church. It has been a pretty good day. Go East Coast! (Eastern Seaboard)

Produce!

Yay! Today we went to Larriland and picked black raspberries, red raspberries, blueberries, and BEETS! I LOVE BEETS. I ate 2 raw at the farm. Mom said it lokked like I killed something and then ate it, and Kolbe said I must've messed up my make-up. Baby James thought it was funny.

Hallelujah!

Today I withnessed a life being saved. Kind of.
Mom was mowing the lawn, and then she called us out side to see a hurt bird that she hadn't run over. We were sad, and Kolbe got a tupperware and we put grass in it and mom tried to get him into the box to heal and then he started to twitch and then he or she flew up into a tree. It turned out thaat it wasa just tangled in the grass!
In other news I am reading "Chalked Up". A very good book.

Jujubeeez

That is a fun-ny name for candy. Where did they come up with the name? The world may already know, but somehow I got left in the dark. As usual.

RE: Ikea

I found a really cool thing at ikea yeesterday. It is a dressing room in your room. Very cool.

IKEA

Today we are going to IKEA. I LOVE IKEA. It is so cool. Grandma says wehen she wins the lottery, we are all getting IKEA makeovers.

Ahh...

I slept better last night but i am still grumpy cuz this morning wahoo kept barking and whinihg and growling cuz mom went on a bike ride and they didn't do anything about it but then they woke me up and I had to do something about it.

I am very tired because last night I was at the sleepover and we ( 4 or 5 girls ) stayed up til 3 a.m. when everyone else fell asleep during th e== movie.

Tired of h o t weather.

Hmm

Hello
Hello
Hello
Hey
Hi
Well,
Goodbye

Yada

Don't you just hate it when people *yada yada yak yak* all day long, or for a period of time?
It drives me nuts.
I have found that the best things to do when someone is doing this are
a. Change the subject
b. Ask a question to make it more interesting
c. Get your butt out of there

Grump

I am a grump because now it is summer. Boo-hoo. But we did get invited to a crabfest. Ha ha! It was funny yesterday, at the end of the day Aaron was sad that not enough people hugged him. Then I had to hug him again.

Sad

I am sad because today is the last day of school. I like school because it is fun and I love my friends.

LAST DAY!?

I do not want the school year to END. I love the school year and I love school because all my friends go tomy school(or they live far away).

School is Cool

Yay! Only one mo' day of school. On that day, no 8th graders are coming cuz they are going on a trip, and 7th graders are encouraged not to come, though everyone will be accounted as present. I am coming.

No school today because of storms. Hmmm. Does this mean that there will be school on Tuesday? Oh well, a nice lazy day today.

Tornado/Hurricane Warning

There was a warning today so we weren't dissmissed until after 4 and the promotion ceremony is supposedly canceled.

No Sub?

There was no sub in Orch. today so people acted crazy for about 20 min., then some went to the band room, and then I went to the office. Then I went to the band room where one sub was teaching 2 classes.

BUNNY SNACKS

I LOVE ANNIE'S BUNNY SNACKS!!! They are delicious. MY favorite flavor is CHOCOLATE CHIP, then CHOCOLATE! YUMMY!

Church

Church again today. For once in a long time my viola actually frustrates me! I am learning 1/2 position and I am very upset. Also my viola order hasn't come in.

Strawberry Fields 4ever

Today we went Strawberry pickin' at Larriland farm. 6 boxes and 60 lbs! There were 5 of us as well, Grandma came.

CONCERT

Tonight is my concert and I am soooo EXCITED. No te preocupas. Plus Grandma is comin'. BONUS!

Concert

Going to Greg's concert today. I think it will be fun, except it is in the school gym, which isn't air conditioned.

Yay

Yay for no school today! I am so happy, but I want to take a nap. No time like the present...

Iron Man

We wnt to see iron Man today. Afterwards I felt very awake. I can see why some people would like it, gut, It wasn't my style.

Blahbeeblah?

I feel boring today. I do not always feel boring. I am not a boring person at all. Did you know I was Queen of the Class in sixth grade?

Audition?

Couldn't audition today because a girl was givin attitude and was held after class. I am a little upset.

Brrrrrrr...p

urrgh, I feel sick. I am auditioning tomorrow. Nng. I know I will do well. I am just rather frightened.

Audition!

AaaaA! My audtion for Symphont Orchestra is on Friday! i am real nervous, but I think I'll do very well. Yay me !

Blech!

Today for snack I was supposed to have yogurt, but the only flavors left were Rasberry(yik) and Key Lime(not my favorite at all). I had key Lime. It tated fine if I ate it slowly. School was good today. Very very good.

Orchestra

Today in Orchestra was boring because about half the kids were in Canada. But we worked on audition music and I did well.

Church

Today I went to church and it was Trinity Sunday. Then we took Kolbe to Flora's and we went to the library. School is almost over for the year.

The Bay

Today I dropped a tear into the Chesapeake Bay. When you find it, I'll stop playing my viola.

Orchestra

Today I had Orchestra. During William Tell Overture Mr. G tried to tell us not to play the top notes for our part, but we played the low notes so badly that he let us switch back. Oh yes, it was career day and since I was a guide, I only saw one presentation, it was AJ's.

Career Day Eve

Yes, It is Career Day Eve. We are having meatloaf for supper. MMMMMM Meatloaf! My favorite thing. After my food log completion and graph comparison I have found that I eat the healthiest on Sundays. In other news, I practiced William Tell for 20 minutes this morning. Did you know that the violins are jealous because we have the fun part, even though they have the melody?

William Tell

We are playing William Tell Overture (Cut Time) in Orchestra. I am glad that the violas have the cool part, though it is not the melody. We have
B B B B B B B E B E
Somethin' like that.

Aye

Aye aye aye! I love to do the mambo!
Aye Aye aye! It is my favorite dance1
Aye aye aye! I don't know why!
Mambo Aye aye aye!
I feel random today.
Go figure.

False Truths

Feeling much better today, thanks. I got an okay night's sleep and woke up dehydrated but I definitely feel like I have improved since yesterday. For instance, this morning I woke up not worried, and I felt like practicing my viola. Now back to the title of this blog: False Truths. What exactly is a false truth? Other than being an oxymoron, False Truths are sometimes a generalization or opinon, like the common thought that the Violin is the best instrument. This is a false truth because all though the violin is a very nice and well known instrument, it may not be the best. I certainly don't think that it is, but some people do. Maybe I am not explaining this very well(?). Oh well. Something else:
A few years ago, when I was quite young, a woman at church took me and my sister into the church hall after mass and pointed up at the stained glass windows. She told us that when you see beams of light coming through that angels were watching.
Hmm. No, this is not true. But yet, it is. Angels always watch, but they do not come through stained glass windows,
Also, when people say that when you see a cloud(rosin) come off of an instrument, it means that it is magic.
But all music is magic! And the cloud is just rosin.

:(

Feeling sad today because I could be at the State Competition but I'm not. Lessons yesterday went fine. Practiced Canon a bit today. Then I feelt a bit less sad. I guess there is always next year.

Lessons

Yes, my Viola and I have music lessons today at UM. That is one reason I love Fridays!

Lessons

Yes, today my Viola and I have music lessons at UM. That is one reason I love Fridays!

Fiii-ield Triiiip

Medieval Tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimes. Today I we-ent to-Medieval Times
Yes. ANd Guess what?
The yellow knight kissed a carnation and threw it at me.
He threw other ones too, but the one I caught was the only orangey one with pink stripeys.

Medieval Times

Tomorrow our school is going to Medieval Times! Well, only 76 of us. The "leftovers" will stay with Ms. T.

CHAW

WE got our CHAW camp forms today. How exciting! I am very excited! Excited!

Monday

Today is Monday. How quaint. Thursday we are going to Medieval Times. Also, Mr. G wants my trio to play on that day, 25 minutes before we are scheduled to get back. Hmm..........

St. Monica

Today is St. Monica's Day. I got to put the wreath of flowers on the statue of mary's head today. I was very nervous. Pollen is bad today.

Phlegm

I have had lots of phlegm this morning. I practiced Viola and Guitar for 45 minutes this morning. I am happy because J. Gopal is proud of me and impressed with our trio. I practiced Canon for 22 minutes.

Trio

Today my trio practiced at UM with my private teacher. I like my trio. I call them my brother and sister. I am glad it is the weekend. On Sunday I am going to put the wreath of flowers on the statue of Mary because it is St. Monica's Day. My trio needs more performance opportunities. Did I mention that I like my trio?

Wizard of Oz

Today we went to see The Wizard of Oz. It was good, but Dorothy was holding Toto wrong and almost choked him! They used a real dog for Toto. I think that the tin man, scarecrow, and lion were good, but Dorothy was only okay. She was being really loud. I think that the microphones were messed up. At the end she dropped Toto because she was holding him wrong and he was squirming. Two girls behind me kept talking and it was really annoying. They talked throughout the whole play!

Grit

I don't know, that just seemed like a good title. Today is Wednesday. Tomorrow our school is going to see the Wizard of Oz. Ms. T is so excited. She is happy because Wizard of Oz is her favoritest thing. Only 30 people out of 96 get to go on the field trip. Yay! I feel like one in a million.

Long

It has been a long day. And I keep burping. Uh-oh. "And" at the beginning of a sentence. Ms. T would not approve. But AJ can come to career day! Woohoo! Oops, I said "but" at the beginning of a sentence. Heh-heh.

Urgh

I am tired. Yesterday was a long day. We went to church then shopping for presents, then went to THE TWINS BIRTHDAY PARTY!!!!!!!, and then went home 'cause I forgot my viola, then to Lucia's house to practice for our ensemble which might not happen 'cause Mr. G forgot to sign us up for the state competition but we decided that over the summer we would like to play at Rhode island Reds anyway.

Comp.

Today is the competition for Orchestra. I am very nervous. The other thing making me nervous is that my sister's comp. is today as well. I hope we get all 1s, or at least 1 1.

Green

Today was our school's Earth Day festival, It was fun ut very hot. Ms. T, my group leader brought us snacks:Oranges[nice and cold] and pistachios without the shell. We planted flowers and had free time and only one real class, not counting orchestra. Oh! Tomorrow the orchestra is going to festival. Mmmmmm.......
I am quite nervous.

"Jewels"

I am interested in the "Jewels" ballet in Seattle. It sounds like an interesting ballet. The costumes are supposed to be great.

Earth Day

Happy belated Eartth Day, everyone! I have composed a song.
Happy Earth Day to you,
Happy Earth Day to you,
Please just stop global warming!
Happy Earth Day to you!

Old Navy

Today I went to Old Navy and I bought a swim suit. It is navy, sky blue and white. It has polka dots, stripes, and an empire waist. It cost $18.55.

I do not know what to say today. Not much is happened all day because the teachers had meetings all day. That was good, I guess.

Target

I got to go to Target w/ my gift card today. I got one pair of pants, two tanks, and some gum. Oh! You missed my b-day party! It was fun. There was a clothing swap and we made lip gloss and bath fizzies and and and, well maybe another time.....

HOT!

It is hot here again today. It is 77 but feels like 85... I had 3 tests today. One was very easy, one was pretty easy, and the third was okay. I got a $25 Target Gift Certificate today from my friend.

Hot!

It is hot today! Well, it is hot right now. This morning it was QUITE chilly.

Yum!

Today we went to Baskin-Robbins with my birthday coupon. I got a scoop of Pralines 'n' Cream. Mmmm! Yummy yummy! But not quite as good as homeade. Hee!

Smiley

I feel like smiling but I don't know why
Smile at everybody who just wants to cry
Smile smile smile dadadee
Little Miss Smiley: Hey that's me!

Church

We went to church today. It was Father Downing's last day. That made me sad. i was happy though because Lucie and Henry and Amy and Frances and Kate were there. Also the food was delicioso.

Birthday

Yesterday was my Birthday. They sang 3 times to me at school. We went to Silver Diner for dinner. I had meatloaf, and a Mocha Dream. They were good. I got real Thailand pearls, a dress, $33, an iTunes card, another necklace, and $40 towards dance lessons. I had a wonderful birthday.

Summit

Today i went to a Youth Empowerment Summit about making connections, staying in school, and other things too. I got free lunch and dessert, a free t-shirt, backpack, DVD and paperwork, and I got my picture taken with Deasy and another important guy.

Sick

I am sick. I have indigestion. NOT GOOD. NOT GOOD AT ALL. I do not fell well.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh............................

Cookies

Today I made chocolate oatmeal crisp cookies. They are good! I just finished. Yesterday I went to a beautiful(and delicious: they had sushi! my favorite! :-^) wedding. Then I went to a concert. My private teacher was playing in the UM symphony orchestra and didn't even tell me (the third movement of Bruckner was the best)!

Nautilus

Today we went to the Nautilus Diner with Dad. I got the Italiano Steak Wrap and a Shirley Temple. Also, Dad gave me an early birthday present.....
A RED IPOD SHUFFLE WITH MY FULL NAME ON IT!
It is red because it is ProductRED brand. This means some of the profits go to AIDS help in Africa. WooHoo!

Hah!

Today I told someone that I liked their necklace, and they said "Actually it's a chain." Hah!

Love

I love LOVE! Love comes in all different shapes and sizes. I love Love! I also love my mommy. And my puppy! Also lots of other people, including my friends and family.

?

I'm guessing that Lame fabric is expensive because in people magazine, it stated that lame leggings are in, but a pair from American Apparel costs $44! When I type "lame" as in the fabric, it looks like lame, like dumb, or weak.

Spring Break

Spring Break is almost over. Today is the last day! I still have some homework to do. I am tired. I love my mommy!

Easter

I like Easter. Today is Easter! Woohoo! Yay! This is a good day. I wore my blue dress, home-knit shrug, white shoes, pink bracelet (silvertone), silver purse, and straw hat with a pink ribbon. I had fun.

Stations

Yesterday we did Stations of the Cross. We also went to Good Friday service. Tonight we have to go to the Great Vigil. Yesterday we also went to Eastern Market and Mom got Pomegranite on a stick. It was good. I had one scoop of coffee and one of butter pecan. It was also good.

Hairspray

Right now we are watching Hairspray. It was my decision. I like this movie. It is the new one. Kolbe is coming home today. She was at Grandma's house.

Monopoly

We have been playing our monopoly game for three days. I think I might be winning. This bodes well, but ones slow me down. I am not affiliated with St. James place on the East Side.

Dress

I got a dress for a wedding today. It is robin's egg blue with white polka dots. The brand is hype. It has a floaty skirt. Cars honked at us when we were on the jetty yesterday at Sandy Point. Hee hee! I love to shop!

Beach

Today I went to the beach. It was cold but I still went up to just above my ankles in the water. Then I went on the jetty. I went all the way out. It was fun. Kolbe was scared, I think. Then we went to the mall.

Church:Palm Sunday

Today we went to church and it was Palm Sunday. I had fun. I was serving, but there was a pot luck afterward. Then I played hide and go seek outside. Ana says last week she found a 100 dollar bill in the parking lot.

Aah

Aaah, spring break. I am happy. I can sleep in. Except for the past two days I have woken up at 7:00 on the dot. Hmm...

Survivor

Last night I watched Survivor and Top Chef while Mom was at her meeting. Today we went to Jo-Ann's Fabrics. It was fun! Indeedy Doodie it was!

YAY!

Yay! Spring Break is finally here! I am glad. Today, school was easy peasy lemon squeasy quick and breezy. But it was very hot! I was burning up. A boy was barfing in math today. I got a cream soda from Ms. H.

Happy

I am happy. It was a WonderFul Day. A WFD. Also, tomorrow is the last day of school before spring break. Yay!
*I'm bringin' happy back.....*

Nngh

I am tired. I am also restless. I hate this feeling. It will probably go away soon. It usually does. I also keep making typos. Argh! Maybe I should just read a book.

Hee!

Ms. H says she wants to take us to the Bahamas next year. When she said that, the "graduating" class got upset. Then she said she said she WANTED to, but we might not be able to go, and then the younger class got their hopes back down.

Franklins

Today we went to Franklins for slunch. You could also call it slinner, dilunch, dunch, sunch, or dupper. Or Sdupper. I thought of an new word: Spudpuppy. I do not yet know what it means. Maybe like a Johnny-Come-Lately.

Home

It is Saturday. I am at home. I am tired. Kolbe is mean and annoying. I am happy that it is finally the weekend.

Mmm

I do not know what to write about. Or type about, I should say. I learned the dance to "1,2, Step" by Ciara on YouTube. I am eating an apple. "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" is a maxim, not an idiom.

Yum!

My sister baked Choco-Chip cookies today. I even got one fresh from the oven, still nice and gooey. Wahoo got into the trash. Target and Old Navy have nice bathing suits and dresses.

McDonalds

We went to mcDonalds for dinner tonight. AAAAAAA! AAAAAAAAAAAA! We're all gonna die!
Hee hee

Hi-C mixed with Sprite
Fries!
Also I love Sweet n' Sour sauce!

Burp

I keep *burp*ing. I think it is funny. Apparently, others do not. Hmm.... Oh well.

China Buffet

We went to a China Buffet today with Dad. It was good. We also went to Old Navy to try on jeans. None fit me! I like shopping. We are going to game night tonight, and I will help kick male butt!
