YA-YAY-UH!

Goood day. Just saying. The girl in the coop, Maddy, came back from the beach this week and she's awesome. Love ya, girly!

Fabric painted leggings for Becca's halloween costume with her. Mine is all ready. I even tried it on and such and it's fabulous. It's just too cool. :D And tonight is VEGAS WEEK on So You Think You Can Dance!! What!?!?! I'm a little excited. My life has been so busy and it's been so hard keeping up with school work. Soemtimes it gets so frustrating. Biology is fine, but as you saw in the last post, geometry is SUCH a time consumement. But I'll live! Friday is the PFO costume tricks and treats party. I am sooo excited. Saturday is a teen board meeting, and sunday I get to meet my buddy! I can't wait. She seems like the sweetest little thing EVER! I just can't wait!! :D :D :D :D :D

Random song that JUST got stuck in my head.

"Popular. You're gonna be popular. I'll teach you the proper ploys when you talk to boys. little ways to flirt and flounce. OOH! I'll show what shoes to wear, how to fix your hair. Everything that really counts, to be popular. I'll help you be popular. You'll hang with the right cohorts, you'll be good at sports. Know the slang you've got to know! So let's start cause you have an awfully long way to go!"

I am so happy! As you may all ready know, I love to be busy. I can't stand not doing anything. And school does NOT count as doing something!! And I haven't been busy at all lately, so I'm just kinda...bored. But this week, my life starts up again! Coop, the PFO RETREAT!!! birthdays,  Sleepover with my BFF Caroline (Cherry Berry! Stay posted for picturess!), church, birthday parties, my CTC CLASS!!! more birthdays, and voice lessons, and  Aaaah! My fabulously busy life. I love it!

Run aways

Today I will be doing another post for my literature class in coop. We are reading The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. And I'd like to compare Jim's escape to "freedom" to Huck's escape to "freedom".
    First off, we'll start with Huck. Huck was being held by his drunk dad, who was practically imprisoning him. He would not let Huck out of the house unless he needed Huck to do something for him. But he would never let Huck out of the woods that they were secluded in.
    Jim on the other hand, was actually a slave, but his mistress, Miss Watson, gave him a lot of freedom. He was able to have his own money and invest it in whatever he wanted. He was even aloud to go places sometimes.
    So, I would like to venture that Jim was actually more free than Huck. It took more effort for Huck to escape, and even then, he had to make people think that he had died. Jim, he just walked away.
    But, in my opinion, even though they seem to be free from their past ailments, they are not all together free. They still have to hide way on an island for fear of getting caught. They are not aloud to show their faces to anyone who might recognize them. Their lives are really quite restricted. Maybe even more so than before they escaped. At least for Jim.
    Their escapes really showed some of their personality too. Huck, underneath all of his superstitions, is actually a really smart kid. He made people think that he was killed by robbers, when really he had just left. Jim is smart, but I don't think quite as witty as Huck. His superstitions get the best of him, and that's all he really knows and believes. Jim, just saw a chance to leave, and did. He knew everyone would know he ran away, but that was okay with him.
   So, I would like to conclude that Huck's escape showed that even though he wasn't actually a slave, he was enduring more slavery than Jim. He had to really work just to, well, leave.

"Can you hear this soul? It's crying. My soul is crying, calling out to you.Will you come and wash over me like only you can do. Will you be...my freedom? Will you be...my freedom?"

and all that jazz...

Today was coop. It's a lot of funnn! I got to hang out out with the younger girls who are purty rockin! Also I had voice lessons today. We're working on jazz. I'll put some lyrics to the song I sang for my quote! :) And TONIGHT IS THE SEASON PREMIERE OF FRINGE!! I get hooked on soooo many TV shows. Especially fabulously nerdy Scifi shows. I get it from my daddy! LOVE YOU! Anywhooo..I can't wait because...I mean....now we know that Peter's from another DIMENSION! I mean, I suspected it all along...but OMG! lol. Ya'll probably have no idea what I'm talking about! :)

"Behold the way our fine feathered friend his virtue doth parade. Thou knowest not, my dimwitted friend the picture thou hast made. Thy vacant brow and thy tousled hair conceal thy good intent. Thou noble upright truthful sincere and slightly dopey gent. You're my funny valentine. Sweet comic valentine. You make me smile with my heart! You're looks are laughable, unphotographable. Yet you're my favbotie work of art."

Okay. So today was the first day of coop. It was pretty cool I guess. I REALLY like French, but now I'm doing TWO french curriculums. A LOT to remember, but I'll manage, since it is my fav. :) ummm...I like lit. Geography, Church History. That's everything. So I guess I like it allll! Heehee! I can't wait till the other girl in the class comes back from the beach or wherever she's at though bc...I'm the only ninth grader, and only girl right now. Yup. Don't get me wrong, the other people are awesome, but it's good to have someone you can relate to.
