it was all i could do to read with comprehension since i have pre-parade anxiety…
“calvin” – calvin and hobbes – i think billy is a fan – honestly, you all should be – anyway, this book envisioned a boy, 17, who imagines a pet tiger – and tries to hunt down the cartoonist to help solve his mental illness – the book was very atypical YA – as such, i really, really enjoyed it – would be a great high school BOB
“the lost art of reading nature’s signs” – cool book – i learned several ways to spot north – outside of a smartphone:) i also learned a bit about nature – birds and deer – and about weather – ooh, and i don’t feel as special now – i thought i was the only one that saw shooting stars – or space dust – but turns out, they occur a lot at parts of the year – and at a rate of like every six minutes – so i should seem them when i run early on the weekends
“missoula” – saved the best for last – although, not a young adult book at all – that said, it should be read by every high school senior going off to college – as a law junkie, i found the court coverage awesome – just like the book – but awesome in a way that the book is incredibly sad – unfortunately, i will probably be the only person that will read it at the public library – because people have this notion that if you ignore sad things, then sad things never come – which is completely absurd – but the book was really good about reminding me how important it is to take every elected office seriously – the county prosecuting attorney in missoula was a former defense lawyer – and the book reminded me of the somewhat tragic existence of freshman college girls

first?
First…?
Noooooooo..I failed!
yes, but you were the first to fail – so that’s something, right???
That’s not the legend I want to leave behind- “The first to fail”
well, as we learn in sleepy hollow – or will learn this fall when i teach my most favorite story of all:) it’s not always our choice the legend we live behind
long live ichabod!!!
story update – detective’s about to go undercover to break up the marching band
I’m so BORED!!!
mr. maf,
since i’m not a student anymore at CMS – and i’m going into high school as well – is it okay if i still blog, even during the next school year?
i am going to blog during the summer, just not as frequently as i would like to. it’s been pretty hectic ever since summer began.
i still have been doing my stalkerish things, such as… well, stalking. 🙂
i hafta go now, but i will return!
ciao!
Just realized Ive been posting on the wrong blog post… If you wanna know what im doing… Check the other week. But no one does care…
well, i knew it was the other one – tough loss last night
hope camp is going well
binder girl ii is 100 words away from 17,000 – i can’t tell if it’s any good – it’s a very different tone than the previous one – at least, i think – lots of murder will do that…
Well, I do say this is a disappointment. Bloggers, you have disappointed me. Shame, shame.
are we having a party tomorrow during the parade as the band goes by???
“Lost”
by Blue
The world
Poor world
It is lost in a pool of confusion
They think they have won
rightfully so…
But they have not.
They say love won, today, on this Friday.
But no…
Love won a long time ago.
When the Saviour’s blood poured out
and the veil broke.
Why do they refuse to understand?

sorry, just feeling a bit inspirational…

I hate to be a partypooper, but I won’t be able to make it..
I’ll throw a party in Game Theory and Strategy!!!
le blue – it’s super good to hear from you – of course, it would be wonderful to have you continue to write – if for no other reason, than you’re going to be a super dark evil villain this coming year in my novel:)
