Ever think that I would act? If you said yes, you are correct. Coming in December, I will be auditioning for the Musical, “Alice in Wonderland” at my school.

This means that the first two weeks of December, I most likely will not be on the computer all that much. Since, I will probably be taking care of things for this; also, Episode 2 of Wetpaint Nation Video has been pushed to the Third week of December for Scheduling reasons.

When I produced my first ever episode of Wetpaint Nation Video, I had to do all of the steps in Acting and this kind of will be able to help me if I get the part. But, most importantly, I need to make sure I make it; which I think I will.

I will write another blog post regarding this… When I get more details – If you have any tips for me; Just leave a comment.

As I have encountered for the past 9 years, everybody in school has to take tests in order to measure they’re ability on a specific topic. But, one thing I have never really known the answer to is, Why do people hate tests?

I hate them mainly because they are early in the morning, usually and because they usually take up too much time. With the fact that I have a ton of State Tests this year, I’d love to find an opinion on why you think people hate tests.

So, Why do you think people hate Tests?

Yesterday, 10am I was at my school getting ready to compete against other trivia teams on my Science Olympiad Team. I think there were 12 different teams that competed in the competion.

Even though I didn’t know the answer to every question I was asked, my Dad had known at least something about it therefore, I was good. Thanks to our Team work, we were able to move up and up to the Finals, where we one the first round of the finals and lost the second round. Even though we didn’t win the finals, we managed to make it to 4th place in the competition.

Thats it for this Science Olympiad blog post, I’ll post more about it in the near future – as the Albion Science Olympiad team goes on to other Competitions against other schools.

Since I haven’t posted about school lately, I thought that I myswell.

I have great teachers this year, let alone the best English teacher I probably will ever have and she is teaching us for another great year. Its going to be a tough and fun year, this year. I have to take five state tests this year, one in January, one in March, one in May and two in June.

Seems like 8th grade will be fun, but tough. Best thing of all, the teachers make their classes fun, by changing the way they teach the curriculum; I think thats what makes 8th grade easier, by them making it fun for the students. In English, we usually would take a vocabulary test where you would just answer the questions; this week, my English teacher made it more fun my letting us create a creative story and work with a partner in class to work on it.

So, I got my report card from Quarter 1 and I had an 85 or higher in every class; plus a GPA (Grade Point Average) of 90.5. I am definitely edging to the 95 or higher that I want for Quarter 2.

If you have any comments about this, feel free to post a comment. I’ll make another post about Science Olympiad from yesterday soon.

Well, after a great summer, I am now back to school. I had a great summer, hanging out by the pool, hosting podcasts, workin’ at TalkShoe and such! Thanks for such a great summer, everyone!

With me returning to school, this also means, probably more blogging – which will help me keep my writing and typing skills up.. Did I ever mention that my English teacher seems to like my writing pieces, thanks for that Ms. Saul/Mrs. Case, you’re the best.

Note: My team had Ms. Saul/Mrs. Case last year, so that is why I know that.

Along with that, it also means TalkShoe Support hours from me at least will be a little less. With New York only allowing me to work three hours (Monday thru Friday), Saturday and Sunday is up to eight hours per day, between 7am and 7pm. I get home around three and I want to make sure Homework and Schoolwork is completed. I usually don’t work Sundays or Mondays and Fridays I usually will work from 4pm to 5pm.

I am liking being back at school and enjoying my classes, I have some great classes and such! So, Thanks for everything. I am thinking this year will be awesome and we’ll all have fun and learn at least a little bit.

P.S. Congratulations Ms. Saul for getting married over the summer. Now known as Mrs. Case.
