What Happened to Summer?

It's SUMMER! Not that I would know... I have so much AP work to do... ugh.
3 books to read (one and 1/5 down so far),
1 journal to keep while reading the 3rd book (the reason why I have yet to make progress in  that one)
3 essays to write. 1 has to be at least 3 pages long, the other is based on said journal, and the 3rd is based on a quote.

Here's the quote: Gatsby turned out all right in the end; it is what preyed on Gatsby, what foul dust floated in the wake of his dreams that temporarily closed out my interest in the abortive sorrows and short-winded elations of men.

Here's the issue: The essay is supposed to be argumentative. What part of that quote can be argued? The only plausible thing I've come up with is that we are supposed to argue whether or not Gatsby did actually turn out all right.
If people read this, I would ask them for ideas but....

Anyway, all this work means it doesn't feel like summer to me. It feels like a holiday break (spring break, winter break), that a teacher assigned homework over.
I have to have it all done by August 2nd,  26 DAYS!

HELP. :-[

With My Cousins

I'm at my Grandparents house with my cousins, Madelyn and Ashlyn. We hanging out today. Ashlyn slept over at my house last night. Here she is:

                                         Ashlyn: Hello, I'm Ashlyn. Yesterday at Sam's house I got my hair done, my makeup done, and had a fashion show with some old clothes of Sam's that fit me. There was music at the fashion show too. We had French Toast for breakfast but since we ate it at 12 it was more like lunch (Somebody didn't get up till 11) . Sam made the french toast. We went to the park/playground and played on the swings, jungle gym, pirate ship and in the sandbox. Bye!

That was Ashlyn, as you could probably tell. Madey is asleep... again. She was up at about 6:30, ate breakfast, saw Grandma off to work and then fell asleep again at about 10 (in the morning). She's pretty tired because she's still sleeping at 11. Well Ashlyn and I have to go. See ya, and have a great summer!

Quick One!

Hello! I have definitely been neglecting this (not like anyone reads it, therefore cares). I'm just checking in to say that I have recently been to this really great restaurant. It's in Harrisburg (Pennsylvania). It is called Home 231 and it's really good. I went on a special trip and had about 6 different dishes- woops, 7 :D. I think the only thing I didn't eat/like was the portebello burger (not a big mushroom fan), but the person who took me on the trip raved about it. If you're in that area or if there is a possibility you could get there somehow (like me), then I suggest you go.

Me again! Dun Dun Duhhhh...

So, the main reason I am typing right now is because I felt I was neglecting my blog. Well that and I'm supposed to be asleep right now, so of course that's the only thing I can't do. Oh well. My class is writing children's books right now, which basically means that I have to think of about 6 or 7 more stanzas of rhymes that have to do with 3 dragons, a unicorn, an evil wizard, and knight in shining armor. It's not what it sounds like. Don't even give your computer that look. It's NOT. What it is, is amazing! I'm having a lot of fun writing it, which is the most important part. Well actually, seeing as this is a school assignment that I will be getting graded on I guess that's probably not the part that matters, but I am anyway so there...
I shall bore thou no longer oh reader of mine blog. I hasten forth to mine bed to sucumb to sweet slumber. For I hath a mere eight hours to revive mine deprived mind and body from the days of turmoil. Hence I bid you farewell for this night.
Weren't expecting that, were you?

Hellooooooooo...

HI! I am currently very uninformed about how the playoffs are going. I've had a really busy, yet relaxing weekend. Yeah,... that made sense. Oh, before I forget, I would like to say hello to a frizzy redhead, whose hair is actually more orange... Anyway, hi! (Yes I'm talking to you Hailey :D). I don't know what's up with Crosby either. I really should be doing something else right now , but I felt the need to check in. So... I need to get back to my homework so ... ....
Later!

Random Trips to My Childhood

So, as you can tell by the title, I've been sort of revisiting my childhood lately- something I very highly recommend. For me this consists of playing with Barbies while watching Rugrats. I was also watching Barbie movies, which are actually better than you might think- especially the older ones. I deeply apologize for my lack of constructive opinions and for my excess of babbling. This is something I'll have to get used to. So... anybody like hockey?

They were, until recently, saying that Crosby would be back in time for the playoffs but now it's seeming less than likely. They've said he may be out until the next season. Sucks for the Pens. I usually root for them or the Caps, or basically anyone who's not the Flyers (sorry, hatred of the Flyers was instilled in me since birth, and come on, they do take a lot of cheap shots). Oh, and speaking of the Caps, Green is supposedly doing a lot better and should be back for playoffs, if not their last couple of games. The Blackhawks are decent and pretty much any of the Canadian teams are too. I did root for the Avalanche when Scott (the Sheriff) Parker was on the team, but that was pretty much just because I picked him as my favorite Hershey Bears player when I was little. Which, when you think about it, is ironic since I used to hate the fights (if you know anything about Scott Parker you should know what I mean). My current Bears favorites are Andrew Gordon- who I liked way back in about October of either '09 or '08, because at my first game in like 5 months, he scored a hat trick. I also like Holtby (if you know who that is I think you'll understand why I like him). I like Fleury and Ryan Miller in the NHL, and I also like Crosby and Ovechkin (I think almost anyone who likes hockey has to like at least one of those two).
Oh my goodness! I finally found something to type meaningful words about! Yay for me!
I should sooo be asleep right now.

Me again.

Ok, yeah I know. I was just on here a minute ago, but I have something to say. Wether or not it's interesting enough to warrant a post is up for you to decide. I just wanted to say that I just finished watching "It's a Boy Girl Thing", and I have to say it's a pretty funny movie. It is kind of sad though. It's definitely cheesey, and cliche, but sweet with just a hint of sour. Kind of like the way I'm talking.

Ok, so first post...

So um... hey. I'm new at this so I'm getting my feet under me. Just another one of those people who likes to rant about, well, stuff. I know this is lame, but hey- cut me some slack. It's my first try. I guess I'll get used to it after a while. For now, I apologize. Next time I'll wait to post until I have something to say.
