Dinosaur

Last week I got a dinosaur shaped sandwhich cutter. It is possibly the best thing I've ever bought. Ever. It makes lunch a little more fun, if I do say so myself.




Anyways, I've started bringing my lunch to school. Pb&j dinosaur sandwhich, apples, and cheerios every day. Well, I have to make my lunch in the mornings before I leave, and I've been proud of myself because I haven't forgot it yet! And well, that ended today. I forgot it, but I wasn't exactly upset about it. I could go one day without lunch, but obviously my mom didn't think so.

I'm in third block and the substitue is taking roll when an office helped walks in with a sack lunch. "I bet that's mine." I whisper to Rachel and Cho.

"Really?" Rachel asked while laughing. We eye the bag while the teacher reads the name on the post it note.

"Is there a Melissa Mc-" I cut him off.

"That's me!" I call out to him. I go up there to claim my lunch, and to my surprise it's heavier than I expected. She packed a water bottle, fiber bar, and some gum!

"Why is my mom so awesome?" I say as I sit back in my seat. "She brought me gum too!" Rachel and Cho just laugh at me, but deep down I know that they are jealous.

Goodness

Boy has it been awhile. Well, I'm getting back into the swing of things! Hello new blog (:

Lately life has been a bit hectic. Tennis season has started, and it feels like I've been waiting forever for it to get here. I was so pumped about tennis, and apparetnly so were a bunch of other girls. People would come up to me and ask me about tennis. Like, what we would do for conditioning and all that jazz. Me being me, I made it seem like no big deal, because really.. I didn't think it was. Last year I didn't remember it being too hard. I mean, I made it out alive AND on the team, so why couldn't they?

Well the first day of conditioning comes around..

"Okay girls, we are going to be running a lot this year. So, do you stretches and after that meet me back here. " Coach Wiggins said with a smile.

I paniced, running? A lot of running? Are you kidding me? Maybe she is just making it seem more than it really was.. Ha.

We go to meet her, and what do you know, she wasn't kidding. "Alright," she grins, "Elida will lead the group through the normal path. You will be running for 20 mins. Straight." I died a little inside. "Go!" she yelled at us playfully.

So, off we went. Running. It was madness, and I wasn't sure how long I was going to last. You see, I don't run. Well, I do.. but not for long amounts of time. I'm more like a sprinter. Short and fast, that's how I roll, er, run. Anyways, we are running and some of the girls are falling back, including me. My breaths are coming shorter and I die a little every time I get closer to the stairs, but I press on. We finally get done and I feel like crap.

Yeah, tennis conditioning isn't that hard.

What's the point

Sorry I haven't posted in a really long time. Life has been happening, and I totally forgot about my little blog here D: I'm sorry to all of the, what, two people who read this? Haha.

Anyways, I guess I'll catch you up with me.

Tennis season is coming up, and I can't wait. I'm so excited to start practicing. As a matter of fact, Billy and I went to the courts Saturday. I totally whooped his butt, but he says otherwise. Silly boy. Well, school is going good. I guess. Nothing spectacular, but not bad either.
I have a project in World History this week, and I can't wait to do it. We have to make a brochure about an artist from the Renaissance, and it has to persuade people to want to see that particular artist over all the others on our fake tour to the Louvre. Can't wait.

Evil Genius

More about snow..

Since we didn't get out of school for snow all that much, we depended on iced over roads or it being 'too cold'.

Ever since I was little I always had this plan. Why didn't all the kids around Nashvile go out in the middle of a freezing night and pour just one single cup in to the middle of the street? Every elementary, middle schooler, and highschooler would get one cup of water. That would be a lot of water all over Nashville on a freezing night. That means a lot of frozen water on the roads of Nashville. How awesome is that?

I made up this plan when I was only in kindergarten, and my dad calls me an evil genius for it.

"It's so cold." my dad said while getting into the car my freshman year of highschool.

"I know." I said sadly. My evil plan playing in my head, why didn't we do it?

He started up the car and we pulled out, "Should've snowed." he said playfully.

"Yeah." I reply. There is a long silence, basically the whole way to school. Until finally I tell him of my evil plan.

"Daddy?" I ask.

"Yeah?" he turns to look at me for a second.

"Well, ever since I was little I always had this.. plan." I said meekly at first. He was going to think his daughter was crazy.

"And?" he looked at me again.

"Well, you know all those nights where it's freezing, and all we would've needed to get out of school was water on the roads so it could freeze over?" I paused fir his reaction.

"Yeah..?"

"Well, when I was in kindergarten I always asked myself why didn't all the kids in Nashville go outside late at night and pour water on the roads. Just a cup or two. We could basically control when we wanted to get out of school." I smiled a little.

"...That's perfect!" he exclaimed.

Then we went on planning for the next frozen night. We would strike at midnight :3

False hope

SNOW DAYS!

Here in Nashville, Tennessee snow days are a big deal. We don't get it much, and it really sucks. Especially when you have weather people getting you all excited about the 'snow' that's supposed to come later that week. Yeah, it's total crap. They do this to get all the hopes up of all the little kids in this area. But, there is one county that hardly ever gets out of school. Davidson county. My county. Buggar, I know.
Again and again all the hype for a snow day would rise, and then we'd be crushed on that fateful day when we woke up and had no snow! Of course we would all ask why and get the same answer every time. "Nashville is in a basin" blah blah blah. Well, I'm pretty sure that these weather people know this too, so why don't they spare Davidson county. Don't even give up hope. Let alone false hope! Why can't they be straight up?

"Hey everyone! You might want to stock up because there's a snow storm heading your way... Well everywhere but Davidson county. Yall suck."

At least this way I'm not getting excited for no reason. Hmph.
