2 weeks until egypt!

COUNTING DOWN!!

2 weeks until egypt! SO HAPPY!

Middle school can be hard!

I've officially learned something about middle school! It seems all fine... until people get all relaxed and feel they can say what they want, NOT FUN! Some random girl walks up to me the other day and said something I can't even put on here!!! I guess it is just people being weirdos! We all have to live with that! I still can't believe that on the first day I made 11 new friends! I guess I am easy to love! <3>Today my mom and I had a little day together! At first I was out sledding with friends, but then we all came home and it turned out the door was locked and my mom was at target! THANK GOD FOR CELL PHONES!! I called my mom and she came back home, picked me up, and took me back to target!! Gotta love her! I got a shirt for thanksgiving dinner with my dads family!

Hope everyone us having fun out in the snow!!

SNOW!!

Its snowing outside in Seattle right now! Icy roads! School got out early! I just had a snowball fight with my friend Elaine and her exchange student, Marco, from Italy! SO FUN! It rarely snows like this in Seattle so we were all pumped at school today! We went out onto our turf field and had a giant snowball fight! We were all soaked!!!!!! Heehee!

Smile

=] everyone needs to smile once in a while. I found this quote about smiles that just wanted to share!

Wrinkles should resemble the marks that smiles have left!

writing songs :]

Hey everyone!

I decided that since I LOVE to sing (and I'm pretty good at it) that I wanted to write my own songs!!! :D

So far I have a couple of ideas of what I might want to write about:

1. Family

2. Friends

3. Happiness

Any other suggestions?? COMMENT PLEASE!! I luv suggestions! :]

--

Someday everything will all make perfect sense. So for now, laugh at the confusion, smile through the tears, and keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason.

Feet

Hey everyone! So yesterday I walked into my 1st period class and twisted my ankle! I couldn't move it all day yesterday and now today I am limping and have a huge wrap on it. :( It hurts really bad but I don't know a good foot place to get it checked out! Doctor? IDK but I will need something and soon! :/ not sure what to do! Right now my mom is at a meeting at O.V. to get some family's that are in poverty to get involved in the school. Latwly at school people have been coming up to me and asking, "Do you wear mascara and eye liner????" and I always reply, "Ummm no."

Also, Eve told me that there was an earthquake in Serbia and since she is sleeping right now I can't get in touch with her about it! I am really worried but Eve said everybody is FINE so I am trusting her.

I think this is the longest post I have EVER made! :) I'm so proud of myself! I am also proud that I finished all my homework in 20 minutes! :D! Ok well I have to go read for language arts, but everything else is DONE! Have a good night!

I never trust a dog to watch my food
and I like to use the word dude as an noun or an adverb or an adjective
And I, I've never really been into cars
I like really cool guitars and super heros and check with lots of zeros on em'

I love the sound of violins and makin someone smile!
**CHORUS**
So if you wanna know here it goes

Party!

Today is my softball party!!! These are all my friends that I get to see today (you probably will only know one)

Charlotte McDonald

Gabby and Delaney Harrison

Tawny Joy

JoJo Hueltz

Liz Allen

Clara and Lu Yardley

Tara Gorstein

Maya Gorstein

and many many more

Huh.....

5th grade can be a disaster. Sometimes it's a really good day, and others not. Today was a not for me. In softball I caught the WHOLE game and missed half the balls. At least I got 3 RBI's to tie the game up. Then, when I got home, I had to clean instead of rest. Finally, I got to eat and watch my favorite movie "Read it and Weep." At least I have supportive friends and fam to keep me going. Sometimes I feel like a roller-coaster taking huge winds and maybe even breaking down.

On the other hand, 5th grade can be great. You get some more freedom, you can hang out with friends more often, and best of all you get to go to middle school next year! Well, I'm going to try and finish "The Hobbit." (which isn't gunna happen) then, go to sleep.

XOXOXO,

Lu

AMAZING!!!!!

This Saturday I'm singing the national anthem at Lower Woodland. It's at 12:00 for all the people coming. SOFTBALL!!!!!

Lena

PIZZA!!!!

This evening we had dinner with the Many's. It was really fun because Hazel and I were playing with straws and pretending to have buck teeth. The pizza was delicious!!! YUMMY!!! Anyway right now I'm watching Oprah so I have to go.

TIRED

Hey peeps,

I am SO TIRED. Last night I stayed up finishing the 100 pages of homework Mr. Jacob gave us (kidding he only gave us 5) STILL THATS A TON FOR ONE CLASS!!!! It is sooo hard juggling the homework, our book project, global reading challenge, ect. I am most devoted to the play and our book project right now because they are the most important to me. OUR DWA is happening right now too so today we spent the whole day doing that and I'm still not done. All the 5th graders in our class aren't done because the two prompts we got are both SUPER hard to write about. At least I have the play to keep me happy and excited. I'm already in my pajamas and I got to bed at like 10:00 (its only 8:30 right now btw) WOW long blog. Have to e-mail Eve now. Bi

Lu
