Favorite T.V. Shows

Do you have an absolute favorite T.V. show that you feel you could never live without? I have several of those T.V. shows. One of them includes That 70’s Show, which is very funny. It’s with six friends just living like teenagers in the 70’s. In almost every single episode, a few of the friends get together in a circle and smoke pot (which you should never, ever do). They then come up with wacky solutions to their own problems. Also in almost every episode (it’s more likely to be every episode), one of the boys, Eric, gets yelled at by his dad Red. Red is so explosive, he gets so mad at the littlest things. On that happy note, we go from the 70’s to the 90’s-00. Another funny show is Buffy, the Vampire Slayer. It’s a funny show where a teenage girl named Buffy learns that she was chosen to fight the vampires, demons, and the forces of darkness in order to stop any apocalypses. These include destruction of humanity, the Earth being swallowed up, all the humans going to hell (sorry), and the Hellmouth beneath Sunnydale High School opening up and spitting the most fearsome creatures alive (or dead) out and casting the world into oblivion. It’s very creepy at one part, and then very funny at another. There are seven seasons, and Buffy might not have made it through them if it hadn’t been for her mom, her watcher, or her amazing friends. That’s all for now. Talk to you later.

Good Days

Have you ever had a day where you feel like you could do no wrong, where everything will turn out just right? Then you get to school and that’s all over. In seventh grade, you get quite a bit of homework (more like loads!), so there is not a lot of time you have to yourself. After school, I like to wait a little bit (an hour) before doing my homework. It gives me time to relax after seven hours locked up in a school. After school, I usually get my good-day mojo back, and I spend it on either getting farther in my video game, or replaying a video game for the fun of it. Then I have to do my homework. I’m a little more pressured on my homework than other kids might be. On Monday, I have Tae Kwon Do. On Tuesday, I am a Faith Buddy for a religion class. On Wednesday, I have Tae Kwon Do. Thursday, I have to go to the library (this is occasional, not every Thursday). On Friday, I play dodge ball at the local gym. I am busy on weekends too. On Saturday, I have Tae Kwon Do again. Sunday is usually my only free day, unless I don’t go to the library on Thursday (sometimes, it’s Tuesday). After homework and whatever I have to do, I’m free. That’s when my good-day mojo finally comes all the way back. Sometimes, I spend it on video games again, but sometimes, I just watch TV and save the mojo for another day.

Club Penguin Newsletter #4

HOORAY! HERBERT WAS CAUGHT! HE IS IN THE HQ NOW FOR QUESTIONING! HORRAY! PSYCH! Herbert would have been caught, but an unnamed rookie accidently gave Herbert a phone call with the teleporter still in the phone. Herbert used it to teleport out of the excellent trap we set. It was a perfect trap. We found a fake golden puffle in a cave. We put it in the Nightclub as a lure for the trap. The unnamed rookie was going to use a magnet to pull the cage onto Herbert, but he lifted it up. Then the magnet broke through the wall. I had to use Jet-Pack-Man’s jet pack to launch the cage onto him to pin him against the wall (Don't insult me, that's his real name). We were so close! Then he asked for a phone call and the unnamed rookie gave him the spy phone and he teleported out of the trap. There is a bright side, however. We are getting more agents almost every day. We are also better at catching Herbert in the middle of his fun-to-break schemes. So, that is all the news so far. I’ll get back to you A.S.A.P. So long suckers. Just joking.
P.S. Some of you might notice a few changes. I made a few mistakes and edited them, so nothing to worry about.

Favorite H.W Places

Sometimes, it takes skill to set a time and place to do homework. There are three places I have to share with you. My first favorite place to do homework is in school, favorably at lunch or the school library. That way, there’s nothing to do at home. Plus, the school librarian keeps everything quiet so there are no distractions like I usually have (Kenny). My second favorite place is the Public Library, preferably, the Teen Center (Teen Services Room) on the downstairs floor. That place is so awesome. It’s got computers for not only research, but also for gaming after homework. It’s got a table for written work. Back to the computers, it’s also got Microsoft Word, which is what I use to write these posts! It’s got all Microsoft programs I’ve heard of! Also, it’s really quiet, and the librarian is really helpful. My third favorite place is, of course, my own room. It’s like my fortress. No one gets in without my permission (unless I’m not there). Those are my favorite places to do homework. I don’t like homework (who does?) but I like the places I do my homework at. So long readers. Stay in school. It may seem boring, but it pays off!

The 39 Clues

The  39 Clues is an AWESOME website, where you find out if you’re a Cahill or not. If you are, than you’re in the Ekaterina, Tomas, Janus, or Lucian branch. Each has their own special skill. The Ekaterina branch (or Ekats) are smarter than the rest. The Tomas are more physically fit and brave. The Janus are cooler and more artistic. The Lucians are sneakier and love poison and weapons. I swear, you never see a Lucian that doesn’t carry a poison ring, poison dart gun, or any other weapon. They also are good decoders and spies. The objective is to find the 39 clues before anyone else. Right now, only 5 clues are available to collect. I have 4. What now! Anyway, you have to have a Cahill Name (username) and password. You need your parent/guardian’s permission, because you need to type in their e-mail address so they can send your parent/guardian an e-mail. Your parent/guardian then clicks on a link to activate the account. Once the account is active, you can go on whenever you want. It is free. No one can communicate to you. It’s as secure as it can be. Another thing, The 39 Clues is more than a website. It’s also an AWESOME book series. There are two books already out: Book One: The Maze of Bones by Rick Riordon and Book Two: One False Note by Gordon Korman. The third is on its way: Book Three: The Sword Thief by Peter Lerangis. It’s coming out on March 3rd. That’s not all. The 39 Clues is also a card game! Collect the cards and enter the codes on the bottom on your online account by going to My Cards and clicking on ADD CARDS. Each card has a unique code: each code can only be used once, so use it on YOUR account, not your friends. It’ll tell you more when you make your profile. I’ll see you guys later.

WARNING - Beware the Madrigals!

P.S. I’m an Ekat.

How to Survive School

          In school, I like to think there are three types of people: the hunters, the hunted, and the spectators. The hunters, or bullies, pick on people they think won’t fight back (a.k.a. the hunted). The spectators watch what is going on and either try to stop it, or try to avoid being hunted or the hunters. There are several ways to survive the school day (if you are the hunted. Hunters, don’t read this). The first way is to avoid the hunters. This only works if they pick on you in the halls. If they pick on you in class, the second way might work. The second way is to ignore them. Hunters enjoy knowing they are annoying you. If they believe you don’t care what they do, they’ll leave you alone. The third way may get hunters to call you a snitch, but it’s worth it. Tell the teacher. It may seem to make you a tattletale, but you shouldn’t let hunters get to you. Those are ways to survive school. That is all I can tell you right now. Until I get a brain spark, I won’t know what to post, so it may be a while. I’ll see you later.

 

P.S. Don’t call anyone hunters, hunted, or spectators. It’ll get them mad.

Club Penguin Newsletter #3

            Club Penguin is in even more danger than ever before. The astonishing truth: Herbert the polar bear has targeted our puffles! That is right, Herbert needs to be stopped. Luckily, the PSA has found where Herbert is hiding. This is a shocker: he is across the frozen lake at the fishing hole behind The Lodge! The PSA found this out using scanners to trace the spy phone Herbert stole. They figured this out in time to set up a spy camera, with which they were able to find out Herbert’s plan. Unfortunately, the spy camera was found and disabled by Klutzy the crab. These are the most recent events regarding safety. Now for recreation news, there is a new game where you make your own music. It is located in the Disco Room, or Dance Floor. Also if you are in search for a lot of coins, go to the Iceberg. There is a game there called Aquamole, and it gives you 25 coins for pearls in clam waters, 50 for cream soda in soda seas and the rare treasure in clam waters, 300 for the main treasure (grand pearl) in clam waters, and 450 for the main treasure(amethyst) in soda seas. It’s what I do when I’m running low on coins (like right now). Those are the main things happening in Club Penguin. Join us later for more on Club Penguin than ever before!
