ORIGAMI!!

Lately, i've been dead in the new origami department. Most people seem to thing that I've given up on it. But actually, my new creations have been so big and fragile, I haven't been able to carry them to school. I've been making spiky balls, dodecahedrons, ornaments, biplanes, all the cool stuff. I've been thinking of making a club at Whitman. My early atempts have failed, but I'm going to try again at Whitman. The club is to teach people about origami, its fun, its challenging and we can earn SSL hours. We can sell origami and then donate the money to charities. Does anyone want to help?You can keep some pieces if you want. That's right, it's ALL PAPER!!!

Christmas Dinner Party at NDGs

The annual christmas dinner at NDGs is awesome. We have pizza, salad, garlic bread, chocolate, and so many deserts. On the day before, monday, we had a horrible set. 24 100 freestyles, the fastest interval was on 1:25. To all you non-swimmers, thats like doing 96 lengths and for each length, we have 21 seconds. Imagine doing that for an hour. It was torture!!! Well, our coach, Dave, is a gigantic fan of the redskins. When ever they win, we have an easy practice, when they lose, he'll kill us all with a hard set. Well, if we thought the 24 100s set was hard, this next set was BS. It was 28 100s IM!!!!!!! IM, is when you do butterfly, backstroke, and breastroke. It would have been a hard set with just the first 24, but in the end, Dave added 4 more on an extremely hard interval. Why? Thanks to Melanie, Caroline, and Hannah. The Giants fans. The Giants, killed the Redskins, so he added extra in punishment. Thanks a lot guys. I think I should sue Dave, there are laws against child cruelty! Near the end of the set, I was half dead, I had to keep checking over my shoulder to make sure the people behind wouldn't run me over. Finally, he made the Giants fans do pushups!!!!! The Christmas dinner, was worth it though. We partied, at pizza, and received presents from our Secret Santas. I got an awesome target giftcard from our new swimmer, Brenann. The best part of the party, was the cake. I know it seems pretty boring, but it was fun. Until my friends became criminals. They first, vandalized my stuff (Morgan), then stole my chair and cell phone (Morgan and Erica), then they just stole my candy!!!! Ok, they didn't steal my candy, but others did. There were fierce battles about who could keep the chocolate, the hot tamales, and the mike ikes. The younger kids emerged as the victors, collecting the most candy. Suckas!!! While they wre getting candy, I was eating cake. CAKE!!!!!!!!

The Snow Blizzard of 2009

We can all agree, WE LOVE THE SNOW!!!! YOU GOT US OUT OF SCHOOL FOR THREE DAYS!!! But, we can also agree, "WHY COULDN'T YOU COME ON THURSDAY SO I COULD AVOID MY TEST?" Anyways, I didn't have boots so when I went outside to play, I tripped and fell face first in snow. Snow got in my jeans and shirt, which was a pain in the butt. I tried to make an igloo on saturday but it kept snowing in my face! So I gave up on making an awesome igloo. Now, I'm scheming, to start a war!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!!! THE ULTIMATE SNOW WAR. Except, there's no one to chuck snowballs at. The snow's awesome, but it should have come at a different time. Sadly, our scholl year will probably extended thanks to the snow days.

Things a REAL friend would do.

Are you tired of those
sissy 'friendship' poems

that always sound good,

but never actually come close

to reality?

Well, here is a series of promises that actually speak of

True Friendship.

You WON'T see

cutesy little smiley faces

on this card-

Just the stone cold truth

of our great friendship..

1. When you are sad,

I will jump on the person

who made you sad

like a spider monkey

jacked up on Mountain Dew!!!

2. When you are blue,

I will try to dislodge

whatever is choking you.

3. When you smile,

I will know you are

Plotting something

that I must be involved in.

4. When you're scared,

we will high tail it out of here.

5. When you are worried,

I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse

it could be until you

quit whining, ya big baby!!!!

6. When you are confused,

I will use little words.

7. When you are sick,

Stay away from me

until you are well again.

I don't want whatever you have.

8. When you fall,

I'll pick you up

and dust you off--

After I laugh my butt off!!

9. This is my oath...

I pledge it to the end.

'Why?' you may ask;

--
because you are my FRIEND!

***********************

Friendship is like peeing your pants,

everyone can see it,

but only YOU

can feel the

true warmth.

Why I hate Wiffle Ball in a small gym: Getting hit 3 times

Don't you guys love soft ball? I like it when I play with people my level so I won't get embarrassed when I play badly. In gym, we were playing wiffle ball. First, I hit the ball and as I run to first base, some person chucks it at the first base person and hits me in the back of the head! Then, I'm standing near the pitcher's helper position and a really good batter steps up to hit. Since there are so many boys their doing the job I don't really pay attention. I mean, one of them even told me to move back to not get in the way. The batter hits the ball and it hits me in the knee. Hard. At least I got her out! But then, right after her, an even better batter steps up to hit. He hits it in my direction and it hits me in the thigh. That one REALLY HURT! I had to be taken out of the game because Ms. Emmel the P.E teacher didn't want me to keep getting hurt. This happened in Basketball, football, and soccer. Same story. I think that people were MEANT to get hit by balls in any of these games! I think that people will always get HIT IN THEIR FACES everytime they play this game. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

RMSC kick off

This meet was for swimming against all of RMSC (lots of people) it was really fun. If you get top 3 in your age group, you get to go to NAGS (National Age Group). I got 1st for 100 breast out of all the 13 year olds. I also got first for 200 breast for out of all girls 17 and under!!!!! The funny thing is, this is because of swine flu and the fact that all of our events are mashed together and we have barely any time to rest in between! A lot of the 14-17 year olds gained time because they were either sick or their events were too close to each other. Still, I think I did great, but I had a lot of luck! I almost got top 3 in 100 fly and the dreaded 400 IM. I might get to swim it in NAGS because Morgan Johnson, a top swimmer in both these events, chipped a bone in her shoulder during volleyball. I hope it heals fast Morgan! Here is a picture of me swimming. Sadly, I have no pic of me at the kick off.
