Even though all the kids wanted to continue with FICHE, my parents wanted to check out STAR. My parents are still deciding. I really hope they decide to continue with FICHE.

6. I have frequently got in trouble for doodling on my skin. Whenever I'm bored (which is kind of a lot) I pick up an ink pen and start mindlessly scribbling faces or hearts or my name on my palm, the heel of my foot, or the knuckles of my hands.

37. I am enrolled in my fourth online writing class.

38. My favorite subject in school is music. I don't mind history, either. Or writing, but my schoolwork writing is this online class's writing assignments, so its not the greatest or the funnest, but its okay.

40. I have the awesomest family in the world.

41. My dream last night was that my dad and my younger brother died in an earthquake. My neighbor's dad and younger brother died (what's with the dads and younger brothers dying?) in the earthquake and she was seriously hurt, and her mom was hurt too. I was crying during the whole dream. Oh, and I had all these dragon eggs (I'm reading Dragonspell, and the main character, Kale, has all these dragon eggs :D) and they would hatch and out would come swans, or geese, or snakes, or green worms, or fish. I would line them up and cry. I was scared when I woke up, and was so happy when I remembered it was a dream! :D

42. I have this ugly scar winding up my left hand's middle finger, marring the skin of my palm and finger. As a young child, I cut my finger on this sharp vase, and had to go to the hospital. My tendon for the last...segment...or whatever it's called, on my finger was cut, and I was thinking recently about having surgery to get it connected, but I decided against it. If you can avoid surgery, why have it?

58. I think texting is kind of fun. Once, I borrowed a friend's phone and was texting one of my other friends who was on the other side of the parking lot. I am saving up for a phone of my own. (heehee, I made up a rhyme.)

59. I love the restuarant Culver's. It is such an awesome place!

60. I like moccas and hot chocolate...

61. ...I don't drink either of those a lot though. Mainly because my parents are what you might call, in a crude light, "health freaks", and none of those drinks are good for you. I am actually kind of grateful though, because I would rather have "health freaks" for parents then junk-food-addicts.

62. My favorite books are the Inheritance Cyle, the Harry Potter books, Les Misérables, the Lord of the Rings, Narnia, the Christy Miller series, Inkheart & Inkspell, Gregor the Overlander books...that's all I can think of right now.

He has written a book called Jerk California, about a guy who has this problem where he can't control his body. Like he twitches at random times, and he has not control over it. Jonathan taught me writing for about a year and a half...he was awesome. He also gave me my Peabody tests.

Phew! I finally finished it.

Thanks for taking the time to read it,
