It's PI In The Sky People!...

Okay.. well, I haven't made anything.. We picked up my art from the fair yesterday though. And now I have math homework and flute to practice.. I will make something!!! Eventually.. Every day I make/put together a fashionable/cute outfit, and then I wear it to school. Does that count? :P Right now I'm working on my group's theme for the yearbook. Maybe I'll post a picture or two.

Pictures!:

Possible cover idea! (we've ended up moving the squares around a bit into a different position)

and

The table of contents!

I Also Have Three Hats

So, today was.. nice! I walked on the monon, and although at first it was a slightly (surprisingly) windy/chilly it got QUITE sunny and pleasant after awhile. I also finished up all my homework, what little of it that there was. Tomorrow I think I will bake something, or sew a stuffed animal. Or perhaps I shall paint. We'll see, and then I'll post about it! Because I can't seem to think of anything else to say right now.. I think I should get to sleep before I begin to ramble.

Is It Always Like This

Tomorrow is Friday! This week seems to have gone by fast, but I guess that's just how I've experienced it. Nothing too memorable around to remind me that yesterday wasn't anything more than a Wednesday. So this means the second week of school is almost done! Whooo. Oh yeah, I don't think I've mentioned yet that one of my paintings received honorable mention at the state fair. :) Yay!

There Were Birds In The Sky

What a beautiful day is was today! Hot albeit, but still quite nice. I sat in the sun, swam, went to the library, visited the post office, looked around a furniture store and spotted some pieces I dearly wish I could call my own, had leftover pizza for lunch, went to meijer, got some panda express(yum orange chicken!), and then came home again to relax. Too bad there isn't anything good on tv tonight, at least as far as I know. Maybe we'll have a little campfire.. Either way today is Saturday, and I SURVIVED THE FIRST WEEK OF SCHOOL! Whoo. Claps for Gemma! Yeah, I'm surprised that it's actually going fairly well despite having math homework, map quizzes, and that sort of thing to do already. Also, it seems the school musical tryouts are quickly approaching... Must prepare for that.. :)

One Down

181 to go...
First day of school! How fun.
Today was, an okay day. I mean, it was the first day of school so it can't really get much more than okay. Turns out all my teachers are pretty cool though, and everything is going to be a-ok!
I really don't have much else to report..
The grandparents are leaving tomorrow though :( back to Florida for them!

So Much So

Well folks, I'm overheating for no apparent reason, but don't be alarmed. Meh, surely there is an answer to this problem... The fan I just turned on seems to be helping. But really, I'm melting here. Maybe it's the long hair? ....the office is pretty muggy right now, it also smells like feet.. and dog.. obviously not very pleasant. Anyway, it's off to registration for me tomorrow morning! How very exciting. Hopefully it won't take too long. Truthfully though, I'm quite looking forward to finding out my classes and team this year. All the sooner so that I may complain about them... Nah, really I'm going to try keeping a positive attitude towards this school year. We'll see how long that lasts...

My Inner Waffle

Okay, it seems the time has come to do one of these SoulPancake questionnaires... I mean, it just makes sense! ^_^ I must say they are rather cool. For a first I'll just steal this one from all the other blogs I've seen it on.. you know who you are. ;D

Food

Please list a few favorites.. 1. Fruit 2. vegetable 3. meat 4. cheese 5. drink 6. spice 7. anything else

1. Peaches - oh dear sweet peaches... I love them. Especially when they're so ripe they practically ooze juice when you cut them. Mhmmm. Delicious.

2. Either spuds or yams. Both please me very much. Mmmm baked potato with cheese and bacon bits... Or McAlister's country potato soup... When it comes to sweet potatoes, I usually have those heated and mashed with brown sugar and butter. It's practically dessert!

3. Steak. Hands down.. or maybe ribs.. I could never go vegetarian, I love meat too much. ^_^

4. Sharp Chedder - sliced with crackers? Good snack.

5. 2% Milk - My drink of choice. Milk is my water. Coming in second would be most likely be sweet tea. It's more refreshing I suppose, better for a hot summer day.

6. Cinnamon, I know not very creative, but it's great. Cinnamon sugar on cut up apples, cinnamon toast, cinnamon in chocolate cake, cinnamon rolls, cinnamon cinnamon cinnamon! Such a useful spice.

7. Nutella! Delicious halzenuty chocolatey spread. Of course, we don't spread it on anything at my house, we find nutella is best eaten in spoonfuls. :)

And now, I'm off to take a walk and maybe eat something because this seems to have made me a bit hungry....
