No Title Avalible at the Time Please Try Again

Ello world,

I am posting because I haven't posted since April 15. Oh and this is for my friend Hallie: April, 15, 2008 Was The 96 Anniversary Of The Sinking Of The Titanic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I totally forgot to say that. Hmmmm what should I talk about. Got it.

I was getting a bunch of icons so that I could print them out to make my planner look better I think it looks good. Here are a few of the icons I chose:


Sorry guys I'll try to post a few next time. . .

Onto another note:
You know that "No child lifted behind" law? Ok, well I have a few things to say about it:

1. It's stupid
2. Testing kids is only testing there abilities to take tests not how they actually do in school
3. If you take away money from failing schools their just going to fail worse next time
4. Lots of kids waste their time at school taking the tests instead of the schoolwork they need to be doing
5. The tests don't count for anything
6. You learned that stuff so long ago you don't remember half of it
7. Kids get stressed about the tests
8. You don't get the results until months latter
9. There are people that can't take tests that are forced to (Autistic kids)
10. Kids taking the tests might do better if it weren't a test, some have fears of tests, and some like to talk out loud when they work

All in all this looks like a flawed law don't you think? It's not a bad idea. Having a law that requires schools to have good standards, but we should go about it in a different way. I mean the failing schools need help not money taken from them. As for how to test people I don't have any ideas, but almost anything is better than a completely silent room with just the scratching of pencils and the russle of paper.

Oh and conferences suck. I just had to go to some student-lead conferences with my mom and it was annoying. I hate how I have to point out what I'm good and bad at. I still have 2 more to do. Oh joy, oh joy. That will be LOADS of fun.

What else have I been doing. . . I have ice show practices now. I am in my ice show this year. The theme is "The Four Seasons" or something like that. I have a solo this year as well as a group number. My solo is to "Let it Snow" by I don't know. My group number is to "September" (no not wake me up when September ends just September.) So, I am doing that. I am also going to be taking beginning fencing on Mondays. It's going to be awesome. It will also prepare me for a Theatrical swordplay camp I am going to this summer. My parents both think that I will love it and I agree. Nothing else is going on that I know of.

Gotta go to skating,

Waaaaaaaaaaa

I am sad I found out on Monday that I didn't make the soccer team. I REALLY wanted to do it. One of my friends is doing it and I am a little bit jealous. Why did she make it and I didn't you ask. I'll tell you she has been playing WAY longer than me. So therefore she IS the better soccer player. But I still really want to be on the team. The only kind of good thing that happened is that I was looking for a summer camp and I came across some fencing lessons. I will start as soon as my ice show is over. It will be fun. Also, the summer camp I am thinking about going to is this Theatrical Swordplay camp that's supposed to be really good. Though it's only a day camp. I should go do my math homework. (Oh joy oh joy.)

Everything Could be a LOT Worse,

More stuff

I don't know what to write. Nobody ever checks my blog. What's the point of having a blog that no one looks at? K well I can put anything on here so I want to put on this link. Go to it. It is a cool game. You might not really understand part of the directions if you haven't read the Maximum Ride books, but you will catch on.

I had soccer tryouts this week. That was fun, but I don't know if I made it or not yet. I would find out tomorrow, but there's no school for records day. So, the coach will either e-mail me, call me, or tell me on Monday. I hope it's not the last one cause I can't wait that long.

Global Warming, just try to not use as much electricity. Even if it's just getting a new type of light bulb that uses less power do it. Always remember to turn off lights when you leave a room. If you can unplug appliances until you use them again.

This is for all you people out there that see gas prices rising. Do you want to know why? Ok, it goes like this you know how we import a lot of our oil from other countries? Well, we do if you didn't know that. Part of the reason it's becoming more expensive is because more countries are buying oil because more people in their countries can afford it. There is also not an unlimited amount of oil in the world. People THE OIL IS GOING TO RUN OUT IN THE NEXT 20 - 30 YEARS! We need to find another fuel source other than gas not only is it hurting our environment it's going to run out. If we want to continue living as we do we need to invest in things other than oil. Yeah I know that the oil companies are really powerful, but we still need to do something.

Your's in the Flesh (or blog whatever),
