I was generally nominated

So on her blog, Bookworm/Future Author, Emma nominated all bloggers that read her post to answer the following questions. (It's a good thing I read her post.) Ok, here goes:
1. If you could only wear one pair of shoes for the rest of your life, what would they look like?
They probably would look like flats, but act as sneakers so I could still run AND wear cute outfits.
2. Do you consider yourself shy?

Yes, I do.
3. Favorite time of day?

Early afternoon
4. Do you make 11:11 wishes?

I don't know what that is, so no.
5. If you were a crayon, what color would you be and why?

Pink. Pink is the color of happiness and worry, and that's me!
6. You're stuck on a desert island.  What five items would you want to have with you? (A cell phone cannot be one of your options.)
My iPad mini, water, food, map of area, inflatable raft.

7. You're still stuck on that desert island.  Which three people are you stuck on the island with?
I would be with my parents, and probably my sister.
8. What time period would you want to visit?
The 80's.
9. Finish this line... "We are never ever...."
Getting back together!
10. You have the choice of traveling to Paris or Japan.  Which would you choose?
Japan
11. What's your favorite blog post of mine?

The 7 lies about homeschooling one

Tim Hawkins Classics

"You say I should turn the page...just cause I get minimum wage..."
"Can I have an L? It's my favorite letter, it's like a seven- but it's not!"
"Hold me, Cooter!"
"The baby's in a TREE!"
"Drive Careful!"
"Imagine Barbara Streissand, falling down a flight of stairs..."
Yes, I just watched Full Range of Motion, my favorite Tim Hawkins video.

Movies!

Yay for homemade movies! My best friends and I have a lot of fun making them.

Movies we've made before:
The Transformation
It's a rather bizarre story about a girl who is turned into a doll (You have to watch the YouTube video to find out why.)
Here is the trailer.
Also we did a comedy circus.
In the making: Attack of the High Fructose Corn Syrup!

A Grammar Rant Included

I'm not on the iPad which means... no typos! I HATE making typos. (Or other people making typos, like spelling 'typos' 'typo's'.
Apostrophes, people, are for contractions, and to show possession (with an exception of its).

OK, so anyway, my team won at Jeopardy again yesterday, I got a new assignment for newsletter,and yay, guitar is going well, as is my other writing class.

Soooo, I need to do math (Algebra!) so see you!

My Day

What a day! Co-op was early for orientation,so I ate lunch in the coat closet.
So my classes play by play:
Jeopardy: 3 teams as contestants. And my team won. We rocked the History category! :D
Newsletter: We got a lot of homework, but it's writing, so I don't care.
Guitar: Learning how to use a picking hand instead of just strumming chords.
Writing: Sample writing. I wrote a story about a desk.

Well after co-op we had Garden Club, which had many children ( very loud) running around all over the place.)
Ugh, a homeschooler's Thursday.

She's not Properly Socialized

I really should do this on the computer. Typing on an iPad is super-hard. Anyway, my homeschool co-op starts tomorrow. My classes are:

1. Jeopardy : Modeled off the game show and with questions (or answers or whatever they call them on Jeopardy) that are way easier.

2. Newsletter : Like the newspaper. Written by teens, about what's going on in the homeschool community.

3. Guitar for Worship 2: I took the beginner course last semester. I really love playing the guitar.

4. College Prep Writing : Nowhere near college (even though I took the SAT) but I love writing and my mom teaches that class ( she loves writing too. Ever heard of the Writer's Gene? Best gene you can have.)

Oh yeah, today I have a drama class with another group of homeschoolers.

"I'm not properly socialized."

Yeah right.

About me

I am a teenage Christian homeschooler, a twin, and a big sister. I want to be a writer, and some other interests are music, art, drama, and babysitting.
This is a small blog post, but oh well. I'm tired.
