Thanksgiving potluck

Church was great today, I got to eat tons of food, and I'm still full. Even after 5 hours.

Anyway, I made cookies that were incredibly crappy in health the other day. It so wasn't worth skipping breakfast for.

The before and after: Left is before the baking, and right is baked. Not much different is it? 'Cause there is no difference, the size pretty much didn't change at all.

The stuff that were in the cookies were macadamia nuts and white chocolate chips.

It sounds good, but the actual thing itself is really not that tastey.

I watched Avatar yesterday, it was awkward watching it with my sister and Dad...

Oh, I got the HBO channel for the flat screen tv so it really had some theater effects in the living room. :)

The SCHOOL

The Junior High.
I've been spending time here at the new school for what, two weeks now? Something like that.
Guess what?

I actually met some people who I might able to call 'friends'. But it's only a few so if they're absent, I just wonder around the building at lunch.

It's been quite tough for the first couple of days but now I have gotten use to the other human beings that I'm not familiar with.

The education here is incredibly easy compared to NC. This part just does NOT fit me; I feel like I do not belong to this kind of environment. What I had known for are AIG, GE, and what the LEAP? But here it is called the PAGE. Before I even get accepted, I need to take a test to see how well I can do. A little nervous (＠_＠;)

Now it is beginning to rain. A lot. DRIZZLING & SPRINKLING. So I get wet every now and then, when I walk home from school. I actually don't walk all the way, but like half-way between so my mom can pick me up where the cars aren't crowded.

Prep Day

Today was a prep day.



What it did:

*give forms and all the other stuff like registration, allergy info, permission forms, etc...
*take pictures for yearbook/ID card(before school starts??? Kind of strange, don't you think?)
*schedule! (scroll down)
*textbooks (only two, lucky~)=World History, Geometry
*athletic uniform for phys edu


My schedule turned out to be like this:

1. Life Issues (health)

2. Ss9 Wldsty H (I think it says social studies 9, World studies Honors)

3. Physical Science (this part would be Earth Science back in Carrboro) *sigh*~

4. Geometry (no honors available [kinda sucks])

5. En9 Wldsty H (English World studies honors)

6. Fitness 9



That was how exactly the schedule looked like with room numbers and teacher names without my parenthesis thoughts.

And let me explain it a little further...

So, health is semester long. Normal. Social Studies and English, they're pairing courses, which means that you do both honors or none. And those are the only honor courses available in Kalles (the school I'm attending). Ok, Physical science is what it seems like Earth science from the way they're taught, with different names, I think. WHAT THE HECK!!! I wanted to take Biology HONORS and they don't have it! I am so telling the principal that I need and must take biology and my pride depends on it! UGH! Math is gonna suck this year also. Every math class I've ever took has been ridiculously easy, so no problem, I'll just watch the clouds float in the sky during class, AGAIN. English, 'nuff said. Ahhh~ P. E. they are called fitness here, not that strange. Except that I always have gym the last period since middle school (still in it tho)! I don't have to go into detail for that.

Hmm... my ID card picture look awful...and that's the yearbook, too. Great.

THE BEST DAY EVER

Okay, a little exaggeration on the title. But today was pretty good as best so far from this year. The weather was awesome and sunny; perfect for the Culbreth Carnival. Things were so good! The food, water balloons, teacher dunk tanks, baked goods, watermelons, face painting, and also getting wet! Ohhhh~ I'll miss this day. I can't believe I didn't take any pictures. But I'll hope someone will post them on facebook! But I hate seeing myself in pictures, esp. when everyone can see them. It was so fun! Volunteering was very nice, I got free food by doing that so I'm okay with that.
Some bad thing was that I got hit by the water balloons, they weren't suppose to throw them! They were for a game, to toss them! URG! But oh well, it was getting hot and I needed to cool down... The worst thing that happened at during school was the letter that the A-team had to write to the sixth graders because we destroyed their stuff and the picnic place was messed up. I wasn't even part of that! But I get to do that tomorrow. joy.... (；一_一)

Today was nice. I have to remember that, I laughed so hard like any other day but today seemed special! (^^♪
