♪♪♪ We Are Family ♪♪♪

My parents have decided to hit the casinos for the evening, and invited my grandparents frrom out of town to come and stay the night! I love 'um to death, they're awesome. My Grandpa is extremely hard of hearing because of ear injury when he fought in the war, so it's really hard to talk to him at times. When I came home from school and I ran upstairs to where the two of them were sitting working on a puzzle. It was so cute! <3 I gave my Nana a hug, and then my Grandpa one! The second I pulled out of it he handed me a slip of paper with his E-ZPass information on it, so I can check their balance, since they don't own a computer. God, how I love them!

Movies vs. Health

We've had today planned out for a while now, me and my friends. Originally, we were going to go and see The Roommate, because it looks awesome. But of course, nothing can be perfect. My friend Kim's parents wouldn't let her see the movies even though she is 13. Since we're the bestest friends in the whole world, we switched the movie to Gnomeo and Juliet which she could go and see. Without the supervision of her older sister. But now I'm sick, and I'm not sure if I'm going to go or not. Blah. -.-

Sick -.-

So my thoughts about strep turned out to be totally wrong. But I do have a pretty bad cold. You know, stuffy nose, tiredness, headaches, and the lovely aches. Joy. Well, I'll just go back to being the sick person that I am and write a new chapter of My Alphabetical Uglacy...

Valentine's Day Dance and Sickness!

Tonight at my school we're having a Valentine's Day Dance. Why on a Thursday night? I don't know. Anyways, it's nothing romantic since our school promotes "a touch free zone". Gah. So that'll keep me busy for the most of the night. And when I'm not having fun, I'm sure I'll be rubbing my throat. Strep's been going around, and I think it just be my time to get it. Again. Wah.

Student of the Month! =)

Yup, that's right! I'm student of the month for my cluster! I'm flipping out! Woot! My science teacher told me this morning, and I totally thought he was joking. But then I saw it on the notice and I couldn't stop smiling! Yay! My good week at school continues! =)

The Brine Legacy Chapter 2

The Brine Legacy: Chapter 2

Since there is absolutely nothing around the house to do because this family is so dirt poor, Selena and Katy have resorted to playing chess. Ah well, sucks for them.

And since only two people can play chess, Victoria has to go play with the her twin sisters at the play table.
"Hi..."

"Look, kid. I'm not here to play nice. You see these? Yeah, they're all mine, and those, yeah, those are mine too."

"What about mwe?"

"Here."

"Pwaper?"

"Yup."

"I gotta get out of this place."

"But I brought you home to play with you."

"Zac, there's nothing to do here! We're surrounded by girls!"

"Tag! You're it!"

"Really?"

Now that Khloe's off of her maternity leave, she know works days. Thankfully, Taylor's schedule is flexible since he's a Private Investiagtor. Unfortunately for him, he's stuck on toddler duty... all day.

"Woot! That's my baby up there!"

"Mom, he's 13."

"He's still my baby."
"I worry about you."

"Me too."

"Woot!"

"I wish for a hot girlfriend. And to be hot."

Self-centered much?

"Oh! And for global warming to end!"

That's more like it.

Here's Zac as a teenager! I think he looks pretty decent. Ladies?

Good Week At School :)

Woo! I had a good week at school! Even thought it was technically only 2 1/2 days... but whatever! For starters I guess I should mention I'm pretty mart (not trying to brag!) and I am in honors. I'm probably one of the top three smartest in my class, but definitely behind Hannah. So, on Monday I has a quiz in Ancient Civ. and I got a 90! All is good so far, right? Then I had a snow day Tuesday and Wednesday, and a 2 hour delay on Thursday! On Thursday I had a Spanish quiz, and I got an 100! Today in Ancient Civ. our teacher was complaining about how bad we did on the quiz and came up with a solution to help raise our grades, even though mine was already pretty good. He was going to let us correct the questions we got wrong using our textbooks and notes, and then he'd average our old and new scores together to get our new grade! And since I knew I fixed the one questions I got wrong correctly, it should bring my grade up to a 95! Woot! These next two things made me feel really good. Well, for this unit in Ancient Civ. instead of having a quiz we had to write a research paper on a Greek philosopher. My Ancient Civ. teacher is a wicked tough grader, like seriously we swear he was meant to be an English teacher. So today once I finished making up the question I got wrong, he pulled me up to his desk to discuss my paper. He said he really liked, and gave me an A! What made me even more excited was that he asked for a copy of it! I don't know what for, but I hope it's for a good reason. The final thing is probably the best thing that happened to me at school in a while! Our school does these things called open response questions as practice for the MCAS. It's when you read a passage and thent hey ask you a question and you have to provide details and stuff like that. Well, we do a schoolwide one once per month in English, and our teacher said that for all of the kids who got 4s (graded as 0 being the worst, 4 the best) she would give candy bars too. Then she'd pick the best 4, and give them a pair of movie tickets. When I was writing mine, everyone just assumed Hannah would win. So when my English teacher announced my name as the winner on Thursday, I was shocked! I'm so excited! Sorry, I feel like I'm rambing... Ah well.
