Latin

October 02, 2006Latin is dead
As dead as it can be
First it killed the Romans
And now it's killing me!

September 07, 2006I started school last Tuesday. It's definately different. Going to school for 6 1/2 hours a day, and then coming home and having lots of homework to do is not something that I've ever done before. It's interesting trying to get homework done in time for Band practice, Drama, Bible Studies and church. This year I'm taking Latin, Spanish, Algebra 2, Biology, Art, Art History, English, PE, and Bible. I only have 2 classes on Thursdays though, which is cool. That means I have time to do homework and stuff, but it's kind of boring. Scratch that, it's really boring. Anyway...um, yeah. There's 13 people in the high school (including Isaiah and me) and about 50 kids in the entire school (3-12th grade). We had a watermelon seed spitting contest today. I didn't participate. I don't really like watermelon, and I really don't like spitting things, so Mr. Gordon (the principle/owner guy) said I didn't have to play. Then we went and played jailbreak. I was it. 7 people against 42. I almost died. I was wearing flip-flops too which didn't make it any easier.
Tonight I have a lot of Latin homework. A lot to memorize. But other than that, I really don't have too much to do. I think I'm goign to watch a movie with my dad :-)   I don't know what else to say, other than that ya'll are really bad at giving comments and you should give me lots.

We're Back

August 23, 2006We're back. We flew 3 different times yesterday. Took a flight to Philadelphia, then changed planes and flew to Raleight, NC and stayed on that plane and flew to Nashville. Our first flight was at 12. We didn't get to Nashville until 5. I had 7 packets of peanuts the whole day. hehe. 2 on each flight, and then Joshua gave me one of his on the way to Nashville. I was really hungry.
We went tubing Monday. I am really sore from that. It was a lot of fun. Zay and I were on the tube together and at times we were trying to push each other off, but for the most part we were just trying to stay on. It was really bumpy, and oh so fun.
I took a lot of pictures of the trip. It was a lot of fun. I got a nice tan, but now I'm peeling in places. :-( I'm excited about church tonight. Happy to see my friends, and even happier to be in church. That's the main thing I don't like about vacations...no church. I mean, sure, I can have my own little church, but it's different. I'm glad to be back.

August 20, 2006It's miserable today. Rainy. Overcast. Windy. Nasty. That means no beach. :-(   I don't think we're going to do anything today. I'm hoping that we are going to go ice skating, but I don't think we're going to. Oh well. I get to hang out with my cool family. Have fun at church everyone!
