AP World History Mid-Era Exam 600-1450

I'm totally gonna do an Ivy, but....

PIE GOT 59/60 ON THE MULTIPLE CHOICE PORTION OF THE MID-ERA 600-14500 EXAM.
Now she has to wait and see how her horrible essay fared...
She's scared.
Her last one didn't do so well.

Michael's Homecoming Adventure

Homecoming was totally bomb (in the good way). I liked the dance better cuz pretty much all we did in the before-party was play Halo. Oh! I came up with this really good idea for pictures! Right when the picture's about to be taken, make a face like you just saw something totally disgusting and hold you're elbow close to your face, but not so close that it blocks your expression. Basically, make it look like you're about to sneeze. So at the dance, I think I finally (maybe sorta got a little closer to) perfected my glide. To answer the question I know everyone wants to ask me: yes I did slow dance with Bonnie. And it was... kinda sorta *coughtotallyspectacularawesomeamazingexplosioncough*. The thing is, slow dancing is just holding each other and rocking side to side. Not that it wasn't *coughtotallyspectacularawesomeamazingexplosioncough*, but you don't really DO anything.

My only regret is that I couldn't get Bonnie a corsage. I promise to you to the furthest extent I can as a Christian that it wasn't my fault though! I wanted to order it online on Wednesday but my mom was like "we can just go to a flower shop anytime and get one." So "anytime" came on Saturday cuz my mom is lazy. She went out with a friend in the morning and she said she'd get it for me on the way back. So I put my trust in my mom to get it for me... and she couldn't! When she got back she was like "the flower shop I went to said that you have to order it at least a day in advance." That was one of the biggest "I told you so" moments of my life. Anyways, I'm really really REALLY TERRIBLY SORRY BONNIE! If you're still upset, even a little, I'll do anything to make up for it!

So that's my homecoming story/apology/explanation. I'm really sorry Bonnie!

Homecoming!

Tell us your homecoming stories!

(in a post or in a comment)

guess what this post is about?

today is....dundundun
HOME COMING

why is it not 430 yet? >=[

AP WORLD HISTORY EXAM.

IVY GOT 32/35 ON THE MULTIPLE CHOICE SECTION.
BE PROUD.
BE JEALOUS.
YAY.

IT'S MOLE DAY! (and Bonnie's extensive list of her favorite candies. Anita, why did you write that question? There are sooo many good types of candy!)

Name: I have many, but I am best known as Bonnie.
Location: Zzz-land. I'm tired.
Favorite candyyyyy? This is a toughie! I like...whoppers, sour patch kids, berry skittles (not the original kind) butterfingers, almond joys, Fererro Rocher!!!...those lovely chocolate truffles you get at Costco? yeah. Those are the big ones. I'm also partial to those Lindt chocolate bars too though! And Twizzlers! OHOH I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE CHOCOLATE RAISINS TOO <333
If you give me any of those candies, I will award you one Forever Love.
IT'S OCTOBER! HOMECOMING, HALLOWEEN...PLANS FOR HOMECOMING? I'm looking forward to homecoming! But not to the piano competition I hafta go to right before it. [Obviously] I have a date, and [obviously] it's Michael. Big surprise! lol :)
COSTUMES FOR HALLOWEEN? Well I was thinking of going as a pumpkin...Anita dearest? Or shall I go as a vampire again?
HOW ARE THE KIDS? They're alright. They did okay on the unit test in history. Okay, not great. But they refuse to disclose their score. (lol Dennis :P)
They also wish people would stop sending them emails about homecoming. They know it's important and all, but come ON! They have already received about 150 emails on the same subject already. Please, if you have any compassion for my kids at all, make a decision and stop sending homecoming emails!!!

Season's Over

Haha, yeah so season's over today, not much of an end, pretty anti-climatic. It felt really short, but thinking back to try-outs, it's been a while. I remember when I first stepped out to play, everyone was wowed and said that I'd defiantly make Varsity. Almost three months later, where am I? Number 9 on JV... Needless to say, its been a disappointing season, haven't been playing at my best (Lost to AKASH??)

But aside from that, it's been one hell of a season, met a lotta people, got to know a lotta people better. Now I'm pumped up and ready for off-season training. Gonna make Varsity next year fo sho, just you watch :D

Awesome!

'Yes, and she is awesome'...xD

I actually had to tell my mom I asked Anita [because I'm bringing her + group over for b-day cake + short party-ness at frickin'-one-in-the-frickin-morning...=3] and my mom was like, "She's not that pretty"
"That's what you think, mom... -.-"
Hm... confession: I have to explain to all these people, 'specially on the team...xD Why Anita? No one seems to get it...x] All like, "You can do better than that", and I'm like *headwall*

Anyways. Soundoff!


NAME: "LEE" "Hello, my name is __Pres__", plain Preston. "Prestonnn"...x] My PE teacher, Mr.Olzendam, actually asked me, "Why'd your parents name you Preston?" and I shrugged... was like, iono... parents prolly just couldn't think of anything better...? [to tell ya the truth, I don't quite like 'preston'...no good nicknames xD] And he was like, no no no... it's a fine name. I like Mr. Olzendam...=] One of my favorite teachers, was ex-military, and he's pretty straightforward! In fact, Mr. Jones was ex-military... *muses*
I seem to get along pretty well with...
Hey! While in the councilling center, waitning for detention to start, I picked up a Marine recruitment mag, and it looked... good, actually. x] Do some combat, medical training in the field before coming back and being a doctor? But don't tell my mommy and daddy that. Anyways!
LOCATION: Here! Wherever that may be... *shrugs*
FAVORITE CANDY: Usually, I'd say mints! Anything real minty. And gummy bears, of course, if not just to play w/ em for a bit...x] And those real expensive Godiva filled chocolates y'know? If 'she' asked me, I'd say kissesss... =3 OfCourse I meant the hershey's kind y'know... chocolate...mmhmm. Sweetest taste in the world, I'm thinkin.
PLANS FOR HOMECOMING:
What was it... Andrew's house! Then the mall. Treat Anita for dinner somewhere nice, allong with...um... all of us...xD Andrew, Ben, Sebastian, Anita, Venny, Me, ummm.... we have seven! But I just can't remember... Tiffany? Or maybe Andrew found a date...anyways.
The dance! Which I think'll be some fun...x] And then after, I treat everyone for desert, since the day after HC is my birthday! The 26th! Happy birthday meh...xD And technically, by the time we get home, it'll be Sunday...xD 1 in the frickin morning, right?
COSTUMES FOR HALOWEEN:
Maybe a firefighter? I have trench coat, a pretty awesome looking hat. Or maybe a Spartan for 300! xD Some muscle shirt, shorts, a cape, and a helmet! Leonidas, means I have to grow a beard allong the way. And that's closer to a 'prince', right? *laughs hard*
I can't imagine 'Prince Charming' ripped and slicing and stabbing his way through legions of Persians, though. x]
TELL ALL.
NOW.
Everything is contentful and good? Kinda? xD A few things bothering me, here and there. Now, one thing I'm a 'lil...'huh' about, though. How should I act? Who should I be? y'know? I can't just 'be myself'... doesn't make sense because, say, being sweet, being shy, being loud and cocky... all of 'em I can fit into pretty well. But I dun like having to constantly set my tone, figure out, hey, to these guys I'm cocky, to these people I'm joking, to these people I'm sincere... ach. Ridiculous! How I'm being pulled in like a billion directions at once but not really.
Allso, that my brain never works quite right when I'm around Anita...x3 But there's no solution to that... hopeless... =D

HOW ARE THE KIDS?
A 'lil excited for HC. Happy. Content. Slothful...xD As in eating and sleeping, right? Napping about the house, as in finding a nice spot of ground to lay down and drowse down.
Everthing, for once, is basically doin' good? Everything being allright? And that supirses them, cuz usually there's some sort of trouble, drama, worry, some cloud hanging over the horizon. Hm. Friends, a girl, and football. xD They wish it were that simple, and I guess it kinda is...
But. Hey!
Today all the little boys played Kennedy high! At Highline Stadium. And to quote one of the brothers, it was 'soo ghetto'...xD The stadium was fenced in with frickin' barbed wire at the top! so were the neighborhood buildings, and the church, especially. The oldest laughed at that. And then even coach...x] "Hey, you'd better go to the bathroom in pairs else you might get jumped', and everyone was just like haaa....x] The kids frickin WON! 27 to 7! PWND UP! And they worked butts off to aid us in a couple of those touchdowns... damn good feeling, walking off someone else's field and cheering, laughing, joking, reviewing. Mmm. They allso yelled themselves hoarse...
OH! Last game of the Freshman season... INTERLAKE VS NEWPORT.
ME and ALIN...xD On the field. Go us! You'd better BE THERE or... you're not even a square! Lower! You'd be, like, a... circle or something. A ZERO. OHHH...xD
Anyways, it's at Interlake, so yeah.
All the better to go watch NEWPORT kick INTERLAKE ass on INTERLAKE turf, right?

WHAT TIME IS IT?
KNIGHT TIME!
WHO'S HOUSE IS IT?
OUR HOUSE
KNIGHTS ON THREE!
-ONE -TWO -THREE
KNIGHTSSS!
[yeah!] [let's do this!] [kill 'em] [rrraagghhh!] [ time to rock and roll, baby]
Amen to Dotto...xD

Baby, we gonna rock your world... xD
^^

Choose One Song. GO.

One song, (maybe more), if you please, that you can't get outta your head at the moment.
Mine is Say It Again by Marie Digby. And that David Archuleta song, Crush.
What are yours?
Please comment. That's all I ask.
Why?
Because I say so o_O
(And it's very simple and effortless.)
Do you need a better reason than that?

(If you really must, put more than one or two songs. But no more than...let's say...4. 4 is good.)

(BTW, Anita dear, Nursing home??? Please e-mail/IM me. Andand HALLOWEEN??? We must act quickly....if we still want to carry out our plan.)

I will finish the soundoff latah. Sorry for the delay. I know you all are eagerly anticipating it.

COSTUMES FOR HALLOWEEN?
umm. no?
TELL ALL.
NOW.
And our feature presentation:
HOW ARE THE KIDS?
They are fine. thank you. I love my sis, she gives good insight. I hate all of that homecoming drama crap. I mean, the kids hate homecoming crap. I'm good though, although everyone else wont get over it... BONNIE! that hurt! BONNIE, EVERYONE ELSE. you don't know the whole story, if you go to interlake, get over it.

Why Sky Blue?

Physics, btw.
It's actually got nothing to do with the reflection of water.
I'm still a little confused from the repeated use of the words 'scattering' and 'high/low frequency' and 'bouncing off molecules' (like, wtf?) but it has something to do with the human eye being able to see blue light better than violet light, and little molecules scattering things farther.
Yeah, I don't get it either.
...
Anyways, time for the soundoff.

N.A.M.E. 'Muthah' (don't ask.)
L.O.C.A.T.I.O.N. In your head. Really.

H.O.M.E.C.O.M.I.N.G. My Newport date ditched me. -sobsinacorner- Or something like that. I don't completely get it, but that's alright. Ivy'll be my date XD
H.A.L.L.O.W.E.E.N. Stitch from Lilo and Stitch! I've got stuff from Japan all prepped up. But I can't find my tights .__.
H.O.W. A.R.E. T.H.E. K.I.D.S. Failing at piano, wanting to learn violin, bored from a lack of homework and amazed at the power of sleep, discovering new heights to procrastination, wanting a homecoming date, needing to go dress shopping, losing her clothes (seriously. they're just disappearing .__.), sore even though she slacked off at XC practice, should be playing piano right now...
Yeah.
That's all!
Toodles :)

IT'S OCTOBER! HOMECOMING, HALLOWEEN...

T.T Though I'm fine going as a group (unlike Krystal who must be aked if she wants to go...) ::wishes there was a cute, intelligent, funny, ect..., guy who likes her:: Well, not really.

And our feature presentation:
HOW ARE THE KIDS?: They have digestion problems at the moment. -.-"

Bunny ate a cup of ice cream

Name:
I am your future graffiti artist. Therefore, I must remain anonymous or I'll risk getting arrested for "vandalism." Some people don't appreciate art.

Location:
In a half-finished house. We are currently constructing a little house to act as an office and study room. Once it's finished, we're going to get furniture and stick in a router. That means whenever I want to, I can steal it and take it with me. Yay for portable internet access.

Homecoming:
When is it again? You people have to tell me stuff. Sheesh.
I have already decided to go.
(Oh yes. We have to follow through with the kidnapping plan somehow.)

Costume:
Well, I don't have a lot of stuff laying around.
And I am definitely not going to buy anything.
Does anyone have a scythe?
Or at least a giant stick and something flat and shiny I can attach to it?

I shall be death.

How are the kids?
They are trying very hard to break their habit of procrastination. It's a very awful addiction you know? I suggested giving their internet connection to me because I need it so much more than them. The computer room is now barricaded with furniture we don't even own.
They are also eating all my ice cream in the fridge. So I went and poured some salt in the containers. That's what they get for taking MY ice cream. I gave them money. They should go buy their own sugary substances. And since they barricaded the computer room, the only food they have in there is salty ice cream. They can either attempt to live with it or rush to the store to get more and risk the theft of their internet.
It's a good thing it's extremely windy outside. Or else they would have just used the window.

Badabing

Badaboom

Name: Michael

Location: In the Ayer

Favorite candy: Starburst

Homecoming? Well... I kinda asked someone... and she said yes... and BOOYAOMGWOOHOO! *deep breath* YAY-YAY!

Now, I'm gonna tell you how that last part is pronounced. The first yay is me saying it loudly with my normal voice, and the second part is me saying it much deeper and much louder.

The only thing is, I was planning on giving her a flower when I asked her, but I ended up LOSING the flower! Here's what happened: I didn't want to walk up to her holding the flower behind my back, cuz that would be dead giveaway. So, I put it into my back pocket and tucked it inside my jacket so it couldn't be seen. I was about to ask her, I reached in to my pocket, and it was gone. Gone. I just broke down. I spent like 10 minutes searching for it but I couldn't find it anywhere. In the end, I ended up asking her without the flower. She still said yes (YAYA!) so it's all good, but I still regret losing the flower.

As for Halloween, I'm not sure what I should be yet...

How are the kids?

They've never been better. School's fine, life's fine. Everything's just good and it's like they're just happy all the time. I expected them to be past the whole going to high school thing after the first week or so, but they still seem pretty excited about it, if not as much as before.

IT'S A BIRD IT'S A PLANE IT'S A SOUNDOFF

Favorite candyyyyy?: I think Skittles. No, ackshually, probably Swedish Fish, but Skittles are the brandname candy that I like. Why am I asking about your favorite candy? Think Oct. 31...

PLANS FOR HOMECOMING? [Are you jumping up and down with excitement, or like zzzz-ing your way through everyone else's jumping?]: I am jumping up and down in my room, and have not yet carried this out at school. A lot of people have been spazzing out about it and the guys have been carrying out elaborate and kinda-sorta-failing plans to ask out girls.

Why'd we get dinosaurs -.-
COSTUMES FOR HALLOWEEN?: I WANT TO BE A FAIRY OR AN ANGEL AND WEAR MY HALO AND HAVE FAIRY WINGS AND PIXIE DUST AND A MAGIC WAND AND GO AROUND TURNING THINGS INTO PUMPKINS AND BUNNIES
Or I could be a ninja.
TELL ALL.
NOW.
I did. so there.
And our feature presentation:
HOW ARE THE KIDS?
Most of the younger brothers are jumping up and down, demolishing the house with their HUGE AND JARRING FOOTSTEPS. HALLOWEEN IS ALMOST HERE, they say. HALLOWEEN IS FOR JUMPING BECAUSE WE ARE EXCITED, they say. BE QUIET, I say. IF THE HOUSE FALLS DOWN, YOU PAY THE BILLS, I say.
---

The VERY youngest brother is eating cookies from the cookie jarrrr.....

They're super-good, and Ikean. e.g. from Ikea. I know, right? Is awesome, right there.

Cookies are amazing, don'tchu think?

Also, he's hopping up and down [and demolishing the house too] because oh em gee an ORCHESTRA RETREAT NEXT SATURDAY

that's not the exciting part

IT HAS ICE CREAM

!

It says, RIGHT THERE, ON THE SHEET

"ICE CREAM, SKITS, AND LAUGHS!"

It's almost like they wrote that especially for him. He feels very excited.

Now he's writing on the walls with crayon.

Anita hopes that's washable?

*twitch*

---

The second oldest sister is chewing her lip, frowning intently at her paper as she writes something for her English homework. Looking at the incredibly easy prompt, the girl sloppily scribbles down a few sentences, rolls her eyes, and thinks, "Why do we need to practice SHOWING not TELLING when I already know this stuff?" She sighs loudly, pushes away her paper, throws her pencil down on the table [with much more force than necessary], and hopes that everyone reading this can tell that Anita is mocking the show-not-tell strategy.
---
The oldest sister has a strange urge to giggle and conspire with someone, about...well...EVERYTHING. She misses being able to sing random songs and dance random dances in the middle of Club Bellevue. She also needs to go babble about homecoming to a girl who won't look at her weirdly if she does =D She is ackshually very excited, but agrees with Anita--dinosaurs has gotta be the silliest theme ever. But homecoming! It's such a big deal, she thinks. And then she remembers that there's a Tolo, which is almost like a candy. And then there's all the other dances, and then next year, and then next, and next. And she feels even giddier and needs to bother her girls about it even more. Not that she has many nearby girls to bother. She feels very weird for knowing more guys than girls at Newport, but she assumes that it will even out. Eventually. Maybe.
---
So as a summary, the kids are either sitting and completely sedentary, or jumping up and down and tearing down the building.
I think that's supposed to balance out in some way,
but I'm not seeing it.

Over and outt. =]

OCTOBER BABY

i deleted my blog
and now i have no place to spam anymore =[

llaal its a new month
which means its almost
halloween
and hc!

i hate our stupid gifted classes
cause they have such freaking high expectations
they actually dont
but they have higher expectations than i want to reach xDDDDD

like in calc, there are basiclaly no expectations
the class average is like 68%
and the class is made up of stupid juniors
so basically i can do w.e. i want in that class

but then we have stupid world history
and ms bui acutally expects participation
and we do socratic seminars like 3 times a week
and we go through chapter notetaking sooooo fast
like by monday, we'll have had gone through everything we learned in foundations last year
and its so much freaking work

and omg then we have english
we have the world's most incompetent english teacher
who's voice is so incredibly irritating i bleed out of my ears
but then we have a student teacher
who grades stuff too

and i think i'd rather suck up to ms boness
than acutally work this year
but thats not possible cause we have a stupid student teacher
but shes acuatlly kinda cooll cause hse ballroom/belly dances
and shes a ski instructor
and she can speak german and french fluenty
i just dont wanna work in english this year T.T
cause its not gonna make me a better writer anyways xD
