ah, first grade…
so we didn’t get to my wonderful interactive site with sixth grade, www.todaysmeet.com/6grade, but the rest of the stories are up there right now for your last thoughts – www.todaysmeet.com/drmafeld, www.todaysmeet.com/fredsdiner, www.todaysmeet.com/thebirdisawaffle – I think I just put them in reverse order – drmafeld was eighth grade, fred’s was second block, and the waffle group is my first block group
“starting and closing” – by john smoltz – braves pitcher I grew up watching – big theme in the book was that of handling failure – that guys in the big leagues get there having never failed – and they have problems dealing with it – reminds me of gifted kids that have problems when things get hard for them – most panic and quit – so it was a good book if for just that lesson
“long run of myles mayberry” – gave it up – which is a shame b/c it’s set in boston and myles runs the marathon – but it was a bit too adult/mature/r for me – and that’s my pet peeve with fiction – something wonderful like the boston marathon and running can be ruined with talking about cheating on your wife who’s cheating on you – but still ends up having your baby…
“write on the bus” – from the national writing project – English teacher/soccer coach who had his players journal – I really like this idea of having kids explore what went right, what went wrong, after a game – and I’d love to do something similar in class
“the cancer chronicles” – made the ny times book of the year list – I could see why – good overview of cancer – how it develops – and why – and a proper way to respond – the tie-in to the writer’s ex-wife – and his brother – one survived cancer, one didn’t – made it all the more interesting
“the tao of chip Kelly” – coach of the eagles, former coach of the ducks – a book about his philosophy and how it’s just “perfect” – at least for this author:) good read – very middle school friendly – good for business people as well
happy final-ing

Hunger Games
After Gale left Madge came in, Madge was the mayors daughter. She was worried every time Effie is pulling out names, she thinks that she is going to be picked. Everyone knows it is all a act, because her name is not entered into the pile, or it is only entered once. Madge told Katniss that she wishes her luck. Then Madge pulles out a pin. Madge gives Katniss the pin, and akwardly leaves. But before Katniss could say thank you Madge was allready out the door. Madge was the last person the Katniss would think to come and tell he goodbye. Katniss was wondering why the ——- had not come and taken her away yet. “Is their another person?” Katniss asked herself. Matter of fact, their was it was Petta’s dad. “Glad it was not Petta’s mom!” Katniss thought. He said, “I will make sure that Prim is getting fed. I’ll make sure of it. Prim is a good girl, full of light.” Katniss gave him a thank you simle. Thanked him and he left.
That is all for today! 🙂 Read again! 🙂 🙂 🙂
I give up trying to tell people not to blog… 🙂
I love “The Nightmare Before Christmas” soooo much, I must do another song review. Since my name is Oogie, The song should be Oogie Boogie’s Song. and yes that’s the actual name for the song. It’s alot like the “campfire song” song, you shouldn’t break the fourth barrier in a movie by calling a song….,well, a song. but back to the song.
I may or may not add the song to the post, but reither way, the song is amazing. Okay, the song. The song is all about Oogie’s disbelief of “Sandy Claws”. Also, the song is just Oogie’s way of toying with Santa. Plus, Oogie’s gang think all of this is one big joke. They even have a song devoted to their twistedness (“Kiddnap the Sandy Claws”), it makes you (or atleast me)think wether the kids are trick-or-treaters or complete cyco-murderers.
I was just kidding from earlier. Of coarse I’m going to add the song. That’s my thing. Plus, because it’s mentioned, I will add the LINK for Kiddnap, blah, blah, blah. Here goes
Well well well, what have we here?
Sandy Claws, huh? Ooh, I’m really scared!
So you’re the one everybody’s talkin’ about, ah-hah-hah-haaa!
You’re jokin’? You’re jokin’? I can’t believe my eyes!
You’re jokin’ me, you’ve gotta be! This can’t be the right guy!
He’s ancient, he’s ugly. I don’t know which is worse!
I might just split a seam now, if I don’t die laughin’ first!
When Mr Oogie Boogies says: “There’s trouble close at hand,”
You’d better pay attention now, ’cause I’m the Boogie Man.
And if you aren’t a-shakin’, there’s somethin’ very wrong,
‘Cause this may be the last time you hear the Boogie Song.
Whoo-hoo. (whoo-hoo! )
Whoo-hoo. (whoo-hoo! )
Whoo-hoo. (whoo-hoo! )
I’m (He’s) the Oogie Boogie Man!
Well if I’m feelin’ antsy, and I’ve nothing much to do,
I might just put a special batch, of snake and spider stew.
And don’t you know the one thing that would make it work so nice?
A roly-poly Sandy Claws, to add a little spice!
Whoo-hoo. (whoo-hoo! )
Whoo-hoo. (oooh! )
Whoo-hoo. (yeah! )
I’m (He’s) the Oogie Boogie Man!
– Release me now or you must face the dire consequences,
The children are expecting me, so please come to your senses.
Hah! You’re jokin’, you’re jokin. I can’t believe my ears.
Would someone shut this fellow up? I’m drownin’ in my tears.
He’s funny, I’m laughin’. You really are too much!
And now, with your permission, I’m going to do my stuff.
– Well, what are you going to do?
– I’m gonna do the best I can.
Ah-hah-hah-haa! Uuh-hu-huu!
Hah! Yeah!
Whooaa!
The sound of rollin’ dice to me is music in the air,
‘Cause I’m a gamblin’ boogie man, although I don’t play fair.
It’s much more fun, I must confess, with lives are on the line.
Not mine of course, but yours old boy, now that’d be just fine.
– Release me fast or you have will have to answer for this heinous act.
Oh brother, you’re something. You put me in a spin.
You aren’t comprehending the position that you’re in.
It’s hopeless, you’re finished, you haven’t got a prayer.
Cause I’m Mister Oogie Boogie, and you ain’t goin’ nowhere…
BTW, the dashes are for when Santa is etalking. Also, something I didn’t do with “This is Halloween”, Im’ gunna post the links to the youtube of both song + the lyrics for “Kiddnap the Sandy Claws.

Hunger Games
Katniss and Petta had to get on the train as soon as their visiters left them. The only bad thing about the visiters, is that you only have one minute. When they got on the train, the train was filled with fancy food, champane, and drinks. The furniture looks like it is very expencive. Haymitch was still a-little drunk. Petta asked Haymitch, “So what atvice do have for us?” “Stay alive!:)” said Haymitch. Suddenly Petta knocked Haymitch’s acohol out of his hand. Haymitch punched Petta in the nose. Then told them that that is high qualidy. Then as Haymitch was reaching for the bottle Katniss takes a knife off the table and jams it into the table before Haymitch’s hand could reach that far. She came really close to cutting of one of Haymitch’s fingers. “Well it looks like I”ve got a couple of fighters, this year.” Haymich commets. “Aren’t you supposed to be giving us advice, so we will be perpared to go out and KILL PEOPLE?!!?” says Katniss. “How did you win?” Said Katniss. Haynitch said, “Don’t touch my acohol!” Then quietly walked out of the room.
That is all for today read again!

After the long boring class of English Adurey was finally out and free of school! Practically running out of th class room into the hall way she ran to the bus to get a seat and save it until Mckaila gets on.
This obnoxious eighth grader plops down beisde her and she says” Um I don’t know who you think you are kid but there are literally tenn other empty seats to go to now if you would be so kind as t move to anthor.”
” Nah Im fine here and you can’t tell me what to do you little wench”
” Um get out of the seat now you fat cow”
” No I am confertable ” kids start to crowd onto the bus and Adurey sees Mckaila steps onto the bus. Adurey say fine fatty ill get out my self Adurey grabs here stuff and darts off over the seat in front of her landing on her butt.
Mckaila looks with an unease frown but sits any way.
” What was that about nothing some dude that wouldn’t get his lazy butt up so I could move”. Mckaila reaches over and covers Adurey’s mouth she was screaming what she though about the dudes really loud proubably intetionally.
” Hey now calm down and stop screaming you weirdo ”
” Ha ok I am jusy surprised he hasnt said a come back yet I mean surely he heard me say all that”
” I don’t know why maybe he doesn’thave one or maybe he is trying to be the bigger person like you should be doing right now!”
“alright yes mam i’ll pipe down a bit ”
” You better and don’t call mam it makes you look wierd and me old”
” I am already wierd and we are the same age 13″
” Yes mam from now on I won’t call you mam”
” Smartelike ”
” Yes yes I am thank you
thank you very much ”
Well what no on really knows but the kid in the seat behid them his name was David and well david had a sick and twisted way off getting laughings in. When adurey jumoed into the seat in front of her part of her back pack was unzipped because she hurred out of english so quickly, her poetry book came out and landed into the seat.
As soon as it hit the seat David had it in his hands and was reading it he started to chuckle and a devilsh grin apperad upon his face.In david”s tiny but complex brain he was putting togther a plan that would even scare politicans if they heard off it. In his head he pasted together a master plan and to add onto it most of the poems were love poems and to inspire love poems you must have an object of desire and in this case it probably wasn’t a pair of shoes in this case it was a person and
david was determind to find out who it was.
Guess what? I’m on the BOB team for Riverchase. Well, I’m not ON THE TEAM, but I signed up. Yay?
Anyways, we get out of school on Friday!! Happyhappyjoyjoy.
I’m bored. I have nothing to type about, either. I’ve done all my work and exams, too.
Hi.

Sincerely,
Queen cow of bacon, mustaches, cows, bacon, bacon, other bacon…
AND long blogs.
Bye!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I DID THE ENTER THING LIKE 405894974392874623495786397856984756874658745647856 TIMES AND IT DIDN’T WORK. WHYYYYYYYYYYY
um, yes, is this the blog??? i have my makeup journals…
i’m reading a review of fred’s diner – it’s pretty amazing – i mean, i’m just 112 words in (b/c i have a social life, ya know) – but you could definitely tell the author had been to the diner and had a rotten time
what do you expect from someone who proclaims “fast” service and yet is never seen running??? yeah, and another thing, the brontoburgers are way overrated – and typically misspelled like an Englishman at a bogeda
i’m going to count to a quadrillion and give up – c-a-….
That might have been even funnier. Yes, I do know how to spell quadrillion. Congradulations, Morgan. Wait, did I really say that? Anyway, Merry Christmas!
In bed with the flu hope I’m not sick on Christmas 🙁
Poor Fred! That would be an awful way to spend Christmas! Anyway,,Merry Christmas!
Reading over previous posts, I saw that someone wrote that I wouldn’t be able to spell for scholars bowl. Hahaha to whoever wrote that (I forgot who it was), I came in second. I haven’t said this in a while, soo…
TRUMPETS UNITE!!!!
Only 4 more days until the worst Christmas of fred’s life 🙂 get well soon ( i actually want to kill on xmas (hunger games)
