Yesterday, on Take Your Child to Work Day, I did go to work with my Dad, but we kinda bent the rules.
You see, he took off all of this week to paint our kitchen (it looks very nice; i’ll post some pics later), and so he didn’t really have anything to do in his office so we were only there for 45 minutes.
His office was in the Annapolis Bereau of the Sun, but before his vacation he was re-assigned and I don’t know where he’s going to work now. But anyway we got there, met some people, talked about sightseeing, and that was it. Literally.
We went to get lunch after that. We ate at the legenday “Chick and Ruth’s Delly.” Let me say that it was AWESOME. I’ll admit that the atmosphere was kinda unique, because it definately wasn’t like a traditional restaraunt.
After that, we went and toured the Naval Academy. It was stunning. Not only was it just cool, but it was an architectual masterpiece. I took some great pix of it.
After that we got ice cream at this cool little ice cream parlor on Main St. and then we went home.
I’m currently working on a script for a Javascript image gallery, so I look forward to having that be finished so i can share my pix.

Today in Science I decided that Mr. Zoulias’ retarded little evolution-of-a-stupid-fake-animal “lab” was just too much for me and so I decided to do some work of my own with my group.
Firstly, we (Chelsea, Steven, I) decided to have a glue fight. We took out Chelsea’s glue stick and we tried to smother eachother with glue. Once I tried to throw the gluestick at Chelsea and have it stick on her shirt but it just hit her hand and hurt her. Chelsea and I succeeded, but Steven barely got any glue on him.
Second, I decided to use the leftover glue from out glue fight to glue to Long Reach scissors shut. I took some glue and glued the blades together and then I hid them in Grace’s binder while she was busy being annoying.
Finally, I decided to leave Grace another present. I took some of the leftover paper from our “cutting activity” and cut them into a thousand little confetti pieces. Then i stashed them in her binder so that when she picked it up all of the pieces would fall on her. Hehehehehehehehehe
OMG speaking of Science, we got our (q)whale eggs today! I kinda shook mine when I got it, and I really hope that didn’t kill poor little Dacqueri. PLEASE LIVE! :cry:
And in the midst of my praking and fighting and fun-having, I was late for Spanish. :-P Mrs. Quinn didn’t care; she was too busy emailing Cierra’s mom. :wink:

As the enrichment fair draws nearer and nearer, you can see stress take its toll on everybody, including Mrs. Phillips.
Obviously, this is a big event for her. It’s her chance to showcase all of her work to the community. We’ve put months into our projects, and she wants the presentation to be flawless. We have a schedule, including such things as a choral performance, literary reading, and live MWTV broadcast, as well as the normal museum walk that lasts an hour. Fair techs will swarm the fair with their cool little headsets, ready to pounce on anything that goes wrong.
With all this protection, what could go wrong? Several things.
I think our biggest issue is the live MWTV broadcast. With our school’s sophisticated, yet old, equiptment, it’s very easty to lose a connection and have no show. It’s also an issue if a TV isn’t plugged in, the sound is off when it should be off, or even little things like seeing the script cover up the lense. But hopefully none of that will happen.
Hopefully this year’s Enrichment Fair will be successfull as last year’s, and we’ll all get candy at the end. :razz:
Feel free to drop my tomorrow night. It’s 6:30 - 8:00 PM at Mayfield. Look for my Envirothon board! Cya there!

Yay! Today I found my Palm Zire! And guess what. It STILL WORKS!
Lemme start from the beginning. I got it for Christmas two years ago. After I got it, I was ecstatic because the only thing that I really wanted was a PDA. I used it all the time.
After a while (last August), it started to act wierd. The stylus wasn’t working correctly so you had to hit the screen fifty thousand times before anything was actually selected (Although the Grafitti ? area worked fine). I kinda stopped using it and, alas, after a while it started to funciton properly again.
Then I started taking it to school with me. One day in December, I was trying to cross the creek to get to school and I slipped on that freakin invisible ice, and fell into the creek holding my Zire. If I had jumped right out, I probably could have saved it, but since I just sat there, eventually it shocked me and caused me to sit in ice-cold water for another minute and go numb all over my body (I ran home and changed and got to school on time).
So after that I could turn it on, but it keep scrolling through Datebook and Addy Book, so I just let it scroll until it died. It turns out that it just needed a battery charging, but I didn’t know that so I stashed it until now.
This morning I found it and decided to charge it, and, voila! It worked! I’m overjoyed, even though all my data had been erased, but it’s a small price to pay for my Zire back.
Now i just gotta find the USB cord….

Once again band is the ruiner of my life.
It all started today in secitonals. Caroline blurted out to Mr. Hunter that Courtney and I used to go out and he believed it and she told him about how she’s all mad at me and I’m not and how she’s all pissy and stuff and so now he knows everything.
Second of all, Jacob called Mr Hunter a dumb blonde and he got all mad at ALL of us and he said that if we’re gonna act like that then we could pack up and go back to Related Arts, even though it was only Jake that was being annoying.
So then in band Jake started crying and then Mr. Hunter tried to console with him and just made him madder. Then Courtney started talking shit about Cierra and I and she said that we were spreading rumors about her even though I just told Cierra what Courtney told me online. I told Cierra and now we’re both pissed at her right now.
So basically all day I’ve been droopy and sad and depressed. The only good part of the day was during Voice because I could do what I do best; sing. Too bad it’s only 30 miutes a week…..

P.S. - Mrs Ladson can burn and die in hell! :mad:
