Yeah, I know, I haven't been posting lately, but whateva....so, now I'm at teen travel camp at the YMCa, it's a day camp, and I'm not a teen, but the campm doesn't care. It's for entering 6th-9th grade. I'm entering 6th grade, so they can't complain. at teen travel camp, we went to a water park (so much fun!), mini-golfing (so boring), ESPN Zone (!!!, to the FUN arcade!), a pond (boring), and the worst yet, to a river for canoing. 
My current camp counselor (or Jeff) took us canoing....and expected us to do 8 miles in a river in 3 hours with no food, drink, or cells to call people for help. And some people had never gone canoing before. So, at one point, everyone was so tired, starving, and dehydrated, it was really hard to keep going to the docking place which was like 500 yds away. Jeff's canoe capsized (HAHA HIM!) 3 boats (including me) were like 20 yds away, 2 boats were closer the 3 further boats kept going, thinking that the others were behind us, but they weren't......so we got like lost, tired, etc...the map was ripped in half and soaked. But we saw parts of it to get the gist of where we were going
at some points, me and my partner hada get outta the boat to push it...I got my pants TOTALLY soaked and sneakers...and socks...so I hada walk barefoot the rest of the way home, but that's later, anyways, so, we were so tired, and the 6 of us on the 3 canoes docked on the bank to rest. There, we switched partners
we set off again, seeing that people were going in a certain direction, so we followed
but one of the boats capsized, they got back up, and we kept going. Then, when we weren't looking, they capsized again, but this time the boat sunk. We finally reached land and waited for everyone else to come
by the time we were ready to go back to camp, it was 4:30 (and we were in West Virginia)..we caught rush hour on the road, and I got home like 1 hour after I should have...we got to camp like 2 hours after we should have
The trip was so crappy...I also hada walk on gravel with BARE FEET! Ouchies
Everyone hates Jeff, he's a jerk, he's insane, and excuse me for saying this...he's a uhh.... bit**. Today was his last day at this job, and if this trip goes on his records, he'll have a hard time of getting a new job (YES!)
my partner was hysterical/insane for like 30 minutes..I was the same...everyone was so desperate, some people drank the disgustingly polluted river water (Ugh).
my arms feel like they're about to fall off and I'm still dehydrated after drinking about 2 regular sized bottles of water..that's it, this trip was even worse than the one to D.C.! It was so horrible! tomorrow we're going to Six Flags though, that'll definitely make up for this trip! *thinks*...oh yeah, Lime's really my friend now..amazing, anyways, bye!
School's out, but not like every 5th grader wanted it to be. At dismissal, the majority of people were crying. The teachers even were. The boys were too. Brian sobbed into Mrs. Camacho's shirt! So Jung was howling! Even Lime cried! At first, I tried not to cry, but as more and more people started, it got harder. Finally, Clark kicked me in the rib cage, and I started crying in pain and sadness. (Oh, and my head hurt when Lime hit it against the wall somehow...)...So, my bus was called and Lime told me she forgave me, and I hugged her, tried to sprint to my bus, tripped, hurt my ribs more, and ran out the door to my bus. The rest of the day has been miserable so far. Everyone I've talked to (or emailed or IMed) has cried. We're all crying because most of us have close friends and they're going to different schools. Even non-close friends or just people we know, we'll miss. I'll miss random people in the 5th grade Center class of '07, such as Brian, Joseph, or Ryan. We all exchanged e-mails, addresses, and phone numbers so we can stay in touch. Even enemies like me and Lime made up and swore to keep in touch with each other. None of my Barnsley friends are going to Tilden, and even as I'm typing this, I'm crying. sorry if I'm getting mushy and everything, but I'm going to miss everyone so much (even Ms. Hirsh). I will also remember everyone and try to keep in touch. I'm going to post pictures of people I took at the graduation (including one of Lime with her hair down which was so funny) on Lime's "good bye" website. Three people have made web-sites for saying good-bye and keeping in touch, and one person made a blog. I'm going to miss all of my friends so much. -breaks out crying- More people made blogs saying how much they'd miss everyone, people are sending each other so many emails, my inbox got spammed. I'm IMing someone I used to hate. I even became friends with Lime. Everyone was so pissed that we hada leave out friends (alotta of mine were just made this year). I am so freaking depressed. I feel like crying.
So, we have what, 1 and a half days of school left? YAY!!! Well, it's also a BOO!!! cuz none of my friends from this school are going to my Middle School...plus in middle school you get like loaded with homework and stuff.....The other crappy thing is that: During summer, I'm bored cuz
a. My BFF and other friends are not usually going to be home (or they live to far away to walk/bike to their homes)
b. It's sooooo hot outside...and I'm bored inside
c. my mom's going to gimme loads of summer homework (NOOOOOOOOOOO T_T)
d. I'll be bored (except for camp and vacation)
and e. I don't know anyone at camp..and everyone'll be older than me(It's for going into 6th grade to like 9th grade or something....some current 4th graders are older than me...)
AND...NOOOOOOOO, I HAVE TO LEAVE ALL MY FRIENDS!!! I'M SO PISSED! NOOOOOOOO!
Today was ok...in math we finished our unit tests (and I probably gotta B or a realllly low A or some other crappy grade...and we won't be able to re-take seeing how many day's left of school)....then in language arts, I typed up my tall tale faster than people who started before me (and I think I typed up more than them!) Then, we wrote "memories" to share during our "promotion ceremony" that's tomorrow nite. I just wrote some random ones....one about a gecko and another about a random spring fair...lol. Lime wrote a lyric that was like random...it was a memory..of her hurt knee...but it made no sense and Ms. Hirsh was like yelling at her. ROFL! Then we had lunch..uneventful...same with recess. Then, we were like finishing our tall tales or reading, drawing, or writing some other thing(the last 2 things we normally can't do!). After like....30 minutes the evilest teacher in the county (?) let us play games "quietly", but everyone just was talking or playing games while talking...it was cool! Then, we did something else, but I forgot what....tomorrow, all we need is a pencil, a game or book, and maybe a binder for Mrs. Davis's math class! yay! I'm just going to bring my binder (just in case), and a book or two. Oh yeah, we also practiced our "promotion ceremony" this afternoon. It was funny, sometimes a kid would like slouch and walk weirdly to the stage, other times they'd make the peace sign or high five the teacher. One guy tried to hit her! LMAO I'm wearing black and white to the ceremony..it's betta than a dress that some people are wearing. I HATE dresses...and skirts and even skorts. Well, I have dinner and viola soon, bye bye people (even though I think just about no one's reading this....unless Lime's stalking me online......jk, lol)
So, today was the pool party. I hate my bathing suit..it's a tankini (my mom bought it for me...). x.x Most people were wearing one pieces....grrr. The water was cold, I basically forgot how to swim, so I decided not to take the swim test, especially because Shadow and Aqua didn't. Swimming was ok, except for the fact that the water was really cold. Lime didn't bring her bathing suit (she hates it) but she got into the water...with her regular clothes. her shirt became transparent and disgusting and she hada borrow some other person's extra shirt to cover it. We swam for a while...and got into splash fights with the boys. Then, about 30 minutes before it was time to stop swimming, me, Aqua, Shadow, and Wildfire decided to get outta the water and over to the baby pool where it was warmer. There were people playing Truth or Dare (remember, we're in 5th grade), and the questions/dares I heard were...let's say.....disturbing. Like: "Kiss someone on the cheek." or "Who do you have a crush on?" and etc. There was also a bumble bee that was like attracted to black hair or something. I SWEAR, it did not go after anyone that didn't have black hair. Unfortunately, I have black hair and the bee got on it. I dunked me head into the water for like 2minutes, but the bee wouldn't get off. Finally, my friends poured so much water onto my head that it flew away. Lime wasn't so lucky. The bee went after her, and somehow she fell into the water and hit her knee hard against the pool floor. Her knee started to bleed a lot, and her friend got Ms. Hirsh to come and help. Ms. Hirsh came and put band-aids on it, then she took her to the manager, who's a first-aid expert, to bandage it up. Then, Lime returned and sat down. She wanted to get back up, and begged me, Aqua, and Shadow to help her get up. We recculantly did (after all, she has been mean to us before). I hate my bathing suit, I'm going to get a one piece next time....grr, my mom is so mean. At least I survived...although my leg (which got injured) hurt a lot, cuz the chlorine stung it. Bye bye...even though no one reads this..at least it helps me overcome boredom. But now I'm bored again. T_T
So, yesterday (or Saturday), I went to my friend Treewinge's birthday party. Me, Rain, and SBM were the only invites (It's not that Treewinge doesn't have alotta friends, her grandpa died so she wants to keep the parties small). We first all arrived and climbed on the trees in the front yard =). Then we went inside and hada treasure hunt for our goodie bags (or in Treewinge's case, her new bike that she already knew where it was). It was really fun. And then we played Oodles of Doodles. After we were half way done, we had to go and make some sushi! Me and SBM worked together to make some rolls. Then, we returned to playing. After about...like 10 minutes or so, we went to eat the sushi. It was quite yummy. Then, we went to play AGAIN. When we were just about finished, we ate ice-cream cake. It was yummiful. =] Then, we opened her presents. I got her a Tamagotchi, a Fuzzy poster, and a stuffed panda which she named Bamboo. Rain got her a Webkinz which she named Nightstar. And SBM got her a digital disposable camera which she took 2 pictures of us with. we all played with the presents until SBM and Rain's parents came to pick them up. It was officially sleepover time!
At the sleepover, we first played with her Tamagotchi, Webkinz (on the computer of course) and her Bamboo (and 2 of my panda's I brought over to play with). It was really fun, but then her parents made us go to our beds. In bed, we played with our stuffed animals and got the giggles a lot. We played for about a hour and then we got into bed and RPed. Then we fell asleep. And then we woke up around in the morning (This morning..the same day I'm writing this). Her dad had made these VERY yummiful pancakes with M&Ms and chocolate chips in them. They were very fluffy. Me and Treewinge both had 2 and a half each. Err....then we went biking. I used her mom's bike seeing that mine wasn't there. It was a little big, but it was ok. We hada test ride but I accidentally crashed into treewinge and got a big scrape that's slightly bleeding on my leg. Owchies. Then we biked to North Bethesda Middle School with her brother (who goes there). When we came back, we were just about to start the game of life when my mom arrives to pick me up. =( I come home, and I start this blog. Now, my leg really hurts and I have ice-skating lessons in about 1-2 hours. I don't think toxicromance can skate, seeing that her toe is broken. And my knee hurts, I don't see what I can do. I also have a pool party tomorrow.....with a big bleeding-ish scrape....owwies. That's it for now, bye bye. (And now I'll be bored)
So, today, we went on a field trip to Washington D.C. We had to arrive at the school around 7:30, and for some of us, that means waking up at like 6 or so. (And this is an elementary school). So, we got in our groups, and we boarded the buses. I got on a bus with Sammy, Alex E., Owen, Brian, and Ms. Hirsh, all of whom suck. It was a HOUR long drive, but if I went from my house, it would only be about 30 minutes, and the buses were like plain school buses....a better bus would be more like it. At D.C., we hada walk for like 2-3 hours is 95 degrees weather. It was so crappy. And then, we were all like starving, and we got lunch. THe lunch was actually ok, we had food vouchers and I got 2 slices of pretty big and good cheese pizza. The problem was, our chaperone wouldn't let us sit with our friends, only our group. Then, everyone went to the bell tower except for me and Shadow, cuz we're afraid of heights. Our chaperone's like: "ok, let's go find somewhere where you can stay. Follow me." and she walks off. We follow her, but she goes off and we can't find her, so we stay there like good kids. like 10 minutes later, she comes and starts yelling at us for wandering off! Meanie. Then, we hada go back to the buses after looking at the useless and very expensive souviner shops. And we stay on the bus for like 1 hour. But it was fun; me, Wildfire, Volcano, Aqua, and Shadow played a funny game. We all can speak a 2nd language, and they're all different. One of us asks a random question in their language, and the rest of us answer in our, not knowing what the questiong was. Then we say what we said, but in English and laugh at the results. When we got back to school, we had bathroom breaks, and Lime kept trying to splash me with water - but she kept missing! W00T!
Tomorrow, I'm going to Treewinge's b-day party. And sleepover! It's going to be so fun! =) And the pool party's on Monday. Yay!!! School's almost over!
I'm using a lot of weird names, they're my friends (and enemies) nicknames (or what they want to be called). I'm using them for safety reasons. If you want to know what each person is, look down:
toxicromance = my BFF, she lives across the street (but she's going to move soon. *sob*)
SBM = my friend that's my neighbor...she also gets on my nerves a lot
Jessica Schwine or Lime = some girl in my class that hates me
Treewinge = my other BFF that goes to my school (Is in DWW)
Sam = my friend (A.K.A. volcano or blaze) (Is ini DWW)
Wildfire = my friend from school (Is in DWW)
Shadow = my best friend from school (Is in DWW) (A.K.A. Beef [but she hates that name...=)])
Aqua = my best friend from school (Is in DWW)
Ivy = some person in DWW...she's weird and bossyish and weird
Rain = Treewinge's friend (who's also in DWW)
Mom = who do ya think, it's my mom
Mrs. Camacho = my math/science/favorite 5th grade teacher
Ms. Hirsh = Meanest 5th grade teacher (and mine....NOOO)
Yeah, probably no one's going to read this, but I'm so bored and have nothing better to do, so I'll just write a blog.
I wake up....I listen to VERY bad singing on my alarm. It was torture. I get ready for school, I accidentally almost became late for going to SBM's house becuase I decided to play on the computer. I get on the bus....me and Treewinge play. Uhh, we get to school and I go trace my shadow. SBM get's mad at me cuz I didn't wait for her. During math, Mrs. Camacho informed us that we needed to finish our unit tests by TOMORROW or something like that - and we haven't even finished learning everything! So, she reviews volume, area, surface area, and the other stuff with us, tells us to skip the first page of the test (which we hadn't learned yet), and do the rest (except I think that this time the challenge really is challenge and not part of the test we have to do like usual). I forgot how to find the area of a trapezoid and I think I got a problem wrong, but what the heck, I have Tuesday to finish (Friday's the field trip, Monday's the pool party). Then we had an assembly. We heard this local author talk to us about her newest book: "Turtles in the sandbox" which is for kindergartens. The good thing was that she mainly talked about turtles and even brought on in! She got it from the University of Maryland; it was a diamondback terrapin or something like that. It was ok, I sorta learned something...and it wasted time! Uhh, then we had book buddies, my buddy wasn't there, so I paired up with SBM who kicked me...ouch. So we have lunch....it was boring, except when a whole load of people move over to our table (which is usually pretty empty)to get "peace and quiet", but there were too many people there (and 3 of them were retards [not like mentally retarded, they just act that way]). So all but 2 moved back. During recess, we (Shadow, Ivy, Wildfire, Aqua, and I) chased each other around the playground, practicing stealth, speed, and endurance (the last 2 are things we need in Middle school - you have to run a MILE). I was all sweaty and outta breath and everything when I realized that we're going to have P.E. It was fun, we played turtle tag, but I didn't hide much, I mainly ran away - unless someone was like going AT me. After that, we played pinball. It's where there are 2 teams, each team has 3 pins that they guard. You throw the balls at the other team's pins, trying to knock them over. The first team to have all 3 pins down loses. After like 2 or 3 games, we played with outs; if you get hit on the waist or below (hands don't count) then you're out. Unless the ball bounced or rolled. If you directly catch someone else's ball that they threw, they're out. In order to get back in, one of your team mates has to hit the backboard of the basketball hoop on the opposite side of the court. It was really fun. Me and Lime kept trying to get each other out (we're sorta like enemy's), but neither was successful. Then we went back to our class and found out who was bringing what snacks in our pool party groups. I ended up having to bring in cookies. And then we had creative writing. I dunno why, but Fernstorm wanted me and SBM and her to perform out skit again. Then we started working on some writing thing. And we went back to homeroom. Ms. Hirsh talked to us about the Washington D.C. trip tomorrow. In order to get to school on time, I have to wake up at 6 A.M. I hope I can fall asleep earlier. Then we packed up and got our year books! They were in color! Most people look stupid in the pictures and people were getting others to sign. Lime lost her year book in like 5 minutes but found it later. I got on the bus and went home. At home I had a snack, read a little, and got on the computer. I was RPing on my neopet's guild and typing up this blog. I had to go for dinner, but I returned and am finishing it. I think this one is the longest. I have no idea. I think my mom wants me to go for a walk now, that way I can fall asleep easier (I have no idea how). Bye....
GAH, I'M SO FREAKING MAD AT LIME. I HATE HER. GRRR...good thing that we're going to different Middle School's next year, or I would die. She sucks....kk, since this is public, I'm not going to express why and my feelings...other than anger..me only going to tell me close friends why...=)
RAWR! *stomps around, making noise*
And my friend is not home, so I can't play with her...boo hoo...piano was bad. It was really long, and my teacher got mad at me because I forgot how to count (Not kidding). Then my mom revised my bio making me watch for like 1 hour, saying that I hada pay attention, writing's very important, yada yada yada, at 10 P.M. Then she made me go out and walk for like 30 min at 10 P.M. saying that otherwise I wouldn't be able to get to sleep. Today sucked. *gets very annoyed* *feels like crying* (not) =(
And the year's almost over and only 1 of my friends are going to Tilden. 4 of them are going to a magnet school, which have a LOT of homework, how am I supposed to keep in touch with them? And my other friends too. Grr, 5th grade isn't a very good grade, I liked 3rd better.
EDIT (June 21, 2007): Lime's ok. In fact, she's my friend...so I don't hate her anymore..in fact, I even forgot why I was mad at her that day...omg, I don't believe that!
kk, I'll start treating this like an actual blog and post about my day......
So, I woke up like 45 minutes late....of course, that's about 5 minutes before SBM wakes up, but I don't like to rush to get ready for school. I had to run up and down the stairs, my clothes were still in the dryer, and I had to print out my 3d biography to revise at school. Yeah, I didn't miss the bus, but the ride was pretty uneventful. Then, in math, we took a quiz, it was really easy, but Mrs. Camacho had to leave for a family emergency or something. After that, we had Wordly Wise. I barely studied, but I think I did ok on the test. The sub was scary. Uhh, lunch and recess were somewhat boring...Aqua and Sam (who has a blog too) chased me and Shadow around, and vice versa. It was fun but tiring. Yeah....uhh, in the bathroom, Lime splashed water all over me (rawr)...and made me accidentally curse...(oopzies...). Grr, Lime, why'd you do that? Social Studies sucked, we had to watch a crappy movie and take notes on it (I hated that part). Then, the chorus people left for their chorus party (the only worthwhile part of chorus in my opinion). I was finished with my project, the book I had was pretty boring, I revised some of my bio that I had printed out that morning, and I had nothing to do. So I just sat there and stared at the wall. Yeah, then Lime accused me of stalking her...I DO NOT STALK HER! UNDERSTAND?! GOOD! The bus ride, again, was uneventful. Oh yeah, I forgot, I wanna eat my lollipop right now...I'll do it later. Then, I got home, had a snack, did homework (which was nothing...) and got on the computer. I RPed some, but no one's replying, so I decided to write this blog. Wow, that was long. Much longer than any other post. Actually, the post before this might be the same length. Whatever. Now I'm bored. I'm going to check if toxicromance can come over and play before dinner and viola lesson. kk, bye, I'll post more later (If I have something to talk about).
