Hello :)
What do I write about??? School as always?? Hmmmmm...... Well... I haven't really started anything new in school. We have to write a sappy love poem in English class which is sort of out of my comfort zone. It has to use special circulatory system vocabulary too. It's a really strange assignment. I haven't started it yet and it's due on Friday.
I don't really have anything else to post about right now. I am not feeling to well today. I need to relax. My neck is hurting and leaning over the computer is not helping me.

Hi!
It's 11 pm but I thought I would just make a quick post. I got my report card back yesterday. I didn't make honor role. I am super pissed but I tried m hardest and that is all I can do. I got all A's & B's except for one C+ in French. I really thought I was doing better in French but I guess not. It doesn't really matter. I'll do better this quarter.
I have a little cold. I should probably go to sleep but I really don't want to. I'm feeling better than I did earlier today and I want to make up for lost time. I didn't really do anything and now I feel like it was a wasted day.
I don't really have anything to post about. I know I say that in all my posts but it's the truth..... We might be going to India next month. I am really hoping we get to go! It would be so exciting.
Besides that I don't really have much else to say. Nothing really happens on weekends, and school is not really a big exciting topic. Maybe tomorrow will bring something exciting to this sad little blog. I sure hope so.

February!
You can subscribe via email to my blog. Just enter your email in the box in the side bar and you will get notifications when I put up a new blog post! Thanks. :) Oh and don't click the "Click for Details" box. It doesn't work.
It's February! I am glad that January is over. I don't dislike January but this means we are closer to the end of winter. Winter is okay... for December... but it always feels to long. Then again it seems that way for most seasons. I can't wait till summer, I know it's not that soon but I like to pretend it is. All summer, I wish for cooler weather and all winter I wish for warmer weather. I know that is the way it is with lots of people but it is super frustrating.
I just got a 100% on a french quiz! It's not really a big deal because it was a really simple quiz but it's the first time I got higher than 85% in French. We still haven't gotten our report cards back for last term though. I don't think I am on the honor role this time though... *sigh* I am pretty sure we are getting them back this Friday.
I'm off to go to bed soon. I think I will get into my comfortable pajamas, sit in bed and read. I do kind of want to finish the movie I am watching on T.V. but reading is more relaxing and better to do before bed. I really do enjoy reading. I just finished a book so now it's time to start a new one!!
If you have nothing better to do you can read some of my previous posts. :)

I haven't really had much to post about in a while. Just school and normal, boring, stuff. School is interesting for me but it's not much to blog about. My classes are completely normal. My teachers are completely normal. I am completely normal.
I miss my exciting life on "the road" but I am enjoying having a steady life without ups and downs every other day. This is fine... for now. I guess it really is not up to me. It's up to God and that is one thing I am totally okay with. I do secretly hope though that I get what I want, but then again I think everyone wants their own will... The question is... does everyone need there own will to come into action. The answer, I believe, is NO.
I have my camcorder up and I am filming my computer screen as I type this. Weird... I know...
oops. It ran out of batteries. The video was about seven minutes long anyway... and extremely boring.
The school term just ended. I am hoping I made honor role but I don't think I did. The second quarter was much harder then the first. I think my grade might have dropped in science. Besides that, I am not to worried. I am doing better in French and I just got a 98% on an English paper. It's hard to keep all of my grades up but I think I did okay.
I was just reading some of my older posts. I kept forgetting to capitalize the beginning of sentences and putting an apostrophe in "it's". I hope I am not still making so many silly grammar mistakes. At least I proof read my blog posts now.

PNG
Today I started to really miss PNG (Papua New Guinea). I went there on an outreach with my family and a bunch of other people last year. I didn't appreciate being there at the time but now I really miss it. I was thinking about the beautiful people and the beautiful beach and how much closer I got to God while I was there. I can't explain everything now because it's late but I hope to have time to post about PNG some other day.

Aujourd'hui c'est le vingt et un janvier.
^^^ Today is the 21st of January ^^^
The name of this post is written in French. It's only because I have been doing a lot of French lately for school. I have been really busy with all kinds of school work. I just completed two English papers, I had a French quiz today, I am working on a science project and I am learning guitar.
A couple days ago I got home from school and was really tired. I was falling asleep while doing my homework so my mom gave me some coffee. That was a bad idea. I couldn't sleep all night. It wasn't until past 3 am that I finally fell asleep. I am still trying to get my sleep cycle on track.

It is The 14th of January!
Hello! I know I haven't posted in a while but I have been back at school and very busy! Grades close for the term next week so I have been doing a lot of school stuff, studying and such because I want to make sure all my grades are good and that I will still me on the honor role. Things have been good though. I am doing a little better in French and I just completed a project for English (Avatar Review...see previous post to read it!). Anyway, this was just a quick update! I have to do a little science studying!
WHAT?!?! Another Avatar Review!?!?!
Hi!
I know I already posted a little Avatar review but I had to do one for a school assignment so I thought I would post it on here :) Enjoy!
Avatar is an exciting film with great special effects and a clever plot. It’s science-fiction, directed by James Cameron. Avatar stars Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana. The film is about three hours long but is so fast paced and compelling it doesn’t feel that long.
The plot follows the story of a handicapped soldier named Jake Sully. Jake’s twin brother was working on a project to become like the native people of Pandora, called Navi, and convince them to leave their village so the humans can take some of their natural resources. When Jake’s brother dies he is recruited to take his place. Jake’s mind is put into a Navi body and he goes into the jungle of Pandora. Jake ends up falling in love with a native woman called Neytiri and fights with the Navi to save their village.
The setting is beautiful. Although it is mainly CGI, the planet Pandora is very believable. It features floating mountains, a village in the trees and other fantasy locations unlike anything in real life. The dialog in Avatar is defiantly not the main attraction. Although the dialog is not bad it is defiantly overshadowed by all of the great visual elements.
The characters are each well crafted though some of the Navi have similar personalities so they don’t stand out. It is the same for some of the humans but all the important characters, such as Jake, Neytiri and Dr. Grace, are distinctive and interesting. They each go through conflict and deal with it in different ways. No two of the main characters have the same personality.
Avatar was defiantly a well made film. Although the plot does not appeal to everyone it has aspects for all different types of movie watchers. There is romance, action, adventure and a little comedy. Some elements are not appropriate for younger children and there is some violence. Ultimately though I think it is definitely a five star movie!

2010!
Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!! Woot Woot, Its 2010! New years resolution....hmmm. Well, I am thinking of trying to go through the whole year only drinking one soda a month. Can I do it? I don't know but I will try! I don't really know what to talk about on here today. I am not feeling well today so I might just relax. I exchanged late Christmas gifts with my friends yesterday, that was super fun and I got some cool stuff. Anyway, I am going to take a shower now and relax. Maybe I will post tomorrow.

I just saw the film Avatar in the Theater. It was extremely captivating. From the beginning I was immediately enticed by the story line and special effects. You could hardly tell it was CGI. The whole film seemed so real.
The story starts out with an ex-marine called Jake Sully on his way to a planet called Pandora. His brother was part of a scientific project, He was meant to go in with a group of people, and become like the native people of Pandora. When Jake's brother died he was asked to take his place. I don't want to spoil the movie so I will stop there, but I would advise anyone to go and see it. It was an incredible movie. Though it is about three hours long it does not seen like a drag. its quite entertaining and fun for the whole family. it is available to be seen in 3D. I just saw it the normal way and really enjoyed it.
