If you looked at the title of this post, you will know what this post is about. If you didn't look at the title, you should be doing that now.
So I have this MONSTER math quiz tomorrow, and I'm totally dreading it. I'm just taking a break from homework now, because along with studying (which I haven't done yet), I had to do 18 quiz questions. Oh joy. So it's about everything we did in the first 4 units of the chapter, which is long division, traditional multiplication, evaluating (their word for "solving) expressions with numbers and variables, the order of operations, powers, and exponents. The long division and traditional multiplication were not included in the book, and that's what I fail the most at.
On all of my other subjects at school, I'm doing pretty well, but I'm doing the worst in gym. My current grade is a C. That's from doing the push up, curl up tests, and the mile run. And my other worst grade is a B- in science.
At least tomorrow is Friday and it's Lounge Night at Elmbrook Church, for Mosaic. Mosaic is a middle to high school bible study. At Lounge Night, you buy snacks, play Foosball,on Wiis, chat with friends, and stuff like that. It's 7-10 pm and it's free to get in. I can't wait because this is going to be the highlight of my week!
Since we are doing a fundraiser at school, of course, they are going to have prizes. I myself am not participating. It's a waste of time. Anyways, one of the prizes is a gift card to Skinit.com, which is a website that sells skins for your electronic devices. So I strolling around the pavement, and guess what I find! A free gift card! So I shove it in my lunchbox and spent it as soon as I got home. Finders keepers, loser weepers! Yesterday, when I ordered it, it said that it would come in 2-5 days. So it could come anywhere between tomorrow and Wednesday!! YAY!!! :)
So tune in tomorrow (or whenever I feel like posting) to see what is happening in my life! ;) that's a winking smiley face, in case you didn't know.

Just Another Day
Over this week, my blog will maybe get boring because I will not be doing anything. I'm just warning you so you don't complain later.
So tonight I have MYSO. Whoop-de-doo. I have a nickname for our part-time conductor; the Bulldog. Just don't tell her I said that, because she has temper like one also. I hope and pray she isn't reading this right now. Anyways, we are playing four songs for our upcoming concert, the Playathon. We are performing Fright Night, A Touch of Ireland, Rondo, and Oxford Overture. I had a dream that I was someday going to have to play a song that sounds like that! I just didn't know what it was called at the time.
I really want my mom to sign me up for this event a Mosaic called "The Ultimate Overnight." It should be awesome, but my mom is thinking about me signing up because it's $45 (before October 6 and $55 after October 6) and $10 extra if you want to buy a game card at Dave and Buster's. I just hope that my mom comes to her senses and lets me go. This is the event of the year here, lady!!!
So, like I said before, this week could get boring, but maybe, maybe, I might have something to talk about later in the week. Maybe.

Not-so-Sunny Sunday
Today is going to be overcast and rainy/drizzly. And it's supposed to stay like that all week long. Just like my random mood swings.
So today we are greeters at church. Greeters are basically people who smile, open the door, and say "good morning" to you. How fun, I know. I usually just plaster on a fake smile and can get away with it. So I'm going to wear this nice outfit today, and my mom says, "Go change your pants. They look like high waters and so that means you're too small for them."
"But I think that they're fine!"
"Fine, look like a doofus when you go to church and see if I care. Which I won't."
"Fine."
That's basically how my morning went.
We are also going to a family birthday party for my cousin, Gavin, who is turning 11. We (as in Mom and I) got him a dark purple hoodie sweater. It looks super comfortable, and even though it came from the Men's section at Kohl's, I would wear it. And my Mom let me get away from getting some stuff for myself, such as rainbow striped toe socks with pom-poms on the side and a pair of feathery red, white, and blue earrings. Mom had to convince me to go, but I finally budged when it started to rain. I was in a conversation with my best friend!
So I hope y'all have a great day, unlike mine so far.

Back Down the Rollercoaster
Today was fine until Mr.Hoffman dismissed us to the buses to go home. The clasp fell off of the front of my oboe, so when I tried to pick it up, all of the pieces fell out and it took a while to pick them all back up. I'm surprised that none of the pieces got stepped on.
To add to my wonderful day, my dad told me that my best friend was too sick so she couldn't come over to my house tomorrow. So I went up to my room as soon as I stepped inside to sulk and stare at the wall aimlessly. How fun. Why didn't I warn myself that this could happen? All day long, I was practically bouncing instead of walking. Her mom said every time that she stood up, she would fell dizzy and faint. So much for that plan.
Lastly (because you probably don't want to hear me mope much more), I had planned for 3 of my friends to come over and hang out. But the bank called and said that my parents' had a 3 o'clock meeting for something about the mortgage. So that's not happening either.
Winning $25000 couldn't make me any happier. I don't even know if I'm going to go to bible study tonight.

Happy Thursday
I have a lot of great news today! Hmm... Where should I start? I guess that I'll save the best for last.
So in gym class, we are doing our soccer unit!! I love soccer but I suck at it! The only bad thing about it is that we have to run back and forth and back and forth over and over. Oh well! Today, right when I was walking to gym, I scarfed down a cookie and power-walked to gym. So I change into my uber ugly uniform, and the teacher takes attendance. After running down and back the field 4 times, I felt like I was going to puke. Luckily, I didn't. But I still love to play soccer!
More good news is that I got and A+ on my culture bag! This assignment was to put together a brown grocery bag (with the front decorated) with stuff from your culture in it. Some parts of culture appearance, economy, government, recreation, tools, shelter, and stuff like that. I talked a little too fast in the beginning, but I got slower after the teacher said to please sloooow down. I think that I had one of the best bags. And I'm bringing my violin to play tomorrow, courtesy of Nick Gierach.
Last good news; my BFF, Cassidy Mallory, is coming down from Oshkosh (or was it Appleton?) and sleeping over at my house on Saturday!!!!!!! I CAN'T WAIT!!!! And neither can two of my other friends, Isabella and Krystal. We are going to have the best times of our lives! We are going to have one of the best Twilight movie marathons ever. No offense.
I better get my homework done. And get to Aubrey's house before she kicks my butt.

Rainy Sunday
I love drizzly, rainy, days. When it's raining so that you should use an umbrella, but not hard enough that you can't go outside at all. So no thunder and lightning.
Sarah and I went to the park again today. We climbed up the pine tree of awesomeness, played American Idol in the rain shelter/stage area, played lily pads on the table and benches in the rain shelter/stage area, and rode our bikes. Same old, same old.
My dad made me change my desktop on the computer because it was a picture of Spy vs. Spy.
"We don't want you to read that crap you call a Mad magazine." Ok, I was exaggerating a little. He said it more like this:
"Please change your desktop picture because we don't want you to read the Mad magazine." We, as in Mom and I.
So another day was there and gone without me reading a Mad magazine.
Tonight I had a bible study called Mosaic at Elmbrook church in Brookfield. It's for middle to high schoolers, and it was pretty fun. The lesson was about being invisible. So my homework for this week (grooooan) is to say "hi" to someone you don't really know that well at school. It shouldn't be too hard, because I already have someone in mind. I'll tell you about it tomorrow.
So I better go get ready for bed so I actually can get up in the morning. Good night America!

One of the Most Boring Days
So, if you looked at the title, this has been one of the most boring days ever. Sure, my best friend Sarah and I hung out together for about 3 hours, but we didn't do much. First, we went to her house and watched YouTube movies for a little while, went to the park, followed the bug line, and went to the library, it really wasn't that fun. We biked around so much, I think that we bike more than 5 miles. Whoop dee doo.
Tomorrow, Mom and I have hospitality team tomorrow, so I have to get up at 7:00 am. In the morning. ON A WEEKEND. Hospitality for our church is basically putting out snacks on some lunch tables and making it look nice. Most people think that we shouldn't do hospitality at our church anymore, and I agree with them. It is a waste of money. But everybody is too afraid/chicken to announce that we don't want to do it anymore. And don't single me out, because I am NOT going to go up in front of all the church and announce that we aren't going to do hospitality anymore. I'm not that kind of person.
So I just want thank my viewers, commenters, and followers. Sure, this would have been possible without you, but it's good to know that someone has been reading this and has thoughts/comments about this. Thank you, once again.
Random question: Would you want to be trapped in a library for a night? Why or why not?

Ah, Friday
So now I've changed my posts to everyday to every other day or so. Life gets busy with math homework, MYSO, student council, drama club, and more. So you shouldn't expect a post everyday. Sorry.
I just applied for drama club, and I think that I should get in for a couple reasons. I turned the slip in on time, I payed the $10 fee, and I have straight A(s). So I should get in. Some people say that our drama program is crappy, but I don't think that it will be. Why you ask? Because my favorite teacher in the entire 6th grade (sorry Mr. Shurilla) Mrs. English, is teaching it!! Yay! By the way, she does teach Advance English/Language Arts/Literacy class. She also teaches advance math and science also. She's awesome! She might even let me use this blog as part of my grade! :D
So I have this Friday night bible study (the real name TBA) with some people from the church youth group, and it's super duper fun! It's at my friends, Bekah and Leah's house, because their dad teaches the group. They are in 6th grade and 3rd grade. They are both home schooled, so Bekah does 6th grade lessons and 5th grade activities. They both babysit during the bible lesson/discussion. First, we play a monster game of kickball, go inside and have snacks, and then have our lessons and small groups. From 6:30 to 8:00 pm. I can't wait!
My BFF Aubrey, is going to be here soon, so I better finish and get my homework done.

Back to School -- Again
I know that you're probably not going to believe this, but I'm getting a teensy weensy bit bored of school. Surprising, huh? I knew you were going to say that.
At least my first MYSO rehearsal starts tomorrow! I wonder what it's going to be like... My dad told me nothing about it, just that it used to be called Music for Youth and had one orchestra. So I have absolutely no idea about what's going to happen. Any ideas?
Tomorrow, we also start our first real art project. In the first week of school, we were doing a thing called a AlphaTangle. Tangles are like patterns, divided by strings drawn into the shape. Here is a picture:
Isn't it cool? I sure think so.
So, I want to hear your thoughts. I know, I should be patient, but WHY HASN'T ANYBODY COMMENTED YET????
