Hello, darlings.
My Real News for today was going to be pulled from the incredibly vast collection of things I hate.  I've been building this collection for the last 40+ years, and I do believe that I am able to add to it on a daily basis for the most part.  But not today.  I tried, but I'm in a weird mood and I'm really not able to channel the hate today.

I'll talk to you about my life as a "pet parent".  I have always *hated* the concept of being a "dog mom".  I would very much judge anyone who self-identified as such.  I can't pinpoint when things changed for me, but between then and now, I've started to wonder if my kids' claims are true: do I love the dogs more than I love them?

I definitely don't love them more than my human children, but I will tell you that I am going to be spending time and money taking their two butts over to Camp Bow Wow tomorrow for an evaluation.  If you don't know, Camp Bow Wow is a doggy daycare.  I didn't get the purpose of doggy daycares for ordinary middle class people until just recently. I thought of them as some kind of luxury reserved for the dogs of the bourgeoisie, and even resented boujee dogs because they had more privilege than most humans I knew.  But now, my dogs spend so much time inside during the day, they are clearly out of control by the time we get home and no amount of time at the park seems to help the situation.  They need to play with dogs.

So, I'm taking them to doggy daycare tomorrow.

Judge me or don't, but I can't blame you if you do.

I was able to watch the dogs on their cameras, so I checked in several times yesterday.  Each time, Juniper (the smaller lab) was either behind this glass door or right next to it.  All of the other dogs are inside that door.
Maeby is very protective of her younger sister, so even though I think she would have liked to have played with the others, she didn't want to leave her lame sister alone.  She laid down by her most the day.
Even though I didn't see them running around like I wanted them to, they were so tired when I picked them up. I would consider it to be a success. Hopefully Juniper won't be as antisocial next week.

Well here it is, over the weekend I went camping at silver falls (I think that was the name). It was fun but a bit boring. First of all it rained the whole time we were there and it got so cold that it snowed a little bit. I honestly didn’t pack for the weather, I didn’t bring very heavy coats so I was freezing the whole time. There wasn’t anyone my age, but there was a girl Lola who is in 8th. It was really awkward because our parents kept saying, “how about you guys go hang out”, or “talk to each other”.

Once we got back from camping I had pitching practice. But once we got to the gym where my pitching coach told us to go there was another team practicing there. I wasn’t really comfortable pitching in front of them while they were practicing. I know though that it’s good practice to pitch in front of people but I really just wanted to practice without people blasting music and watching me while I practice.

Yesterday I got to leave school early to go to an eye doctor appointment. I was excited because for one, I finally got new glasses and potentially contacts, but I was nervous they were going to dilate my eyes because last time that happened I had to go back to school and I ran into a few walls. But anyway it started normal till my mom and I found out that the girl helping us has only been there for two days and was in training. I think I sat at the machines that take pictures of your eyes for twenty minutes, she just simply couldn’t figure it out. Then she starts testing my eyes but she told me to keep my glasses on, so the prescription she tried to put in as my new one was my old one. Finally another doctor came in and stoped her and corrected it.
But anyway, tomorrow I get to go in to get contacts fitted, I’m extremely excited that I don’t have to wear my glasses anymore, with the mask it gives me pain through out the whole day. So on Friday I will no longer have to wear my glasses. 😁

I was was looking around not wanting to do this and so I saw my hydro flask and I was like might as well :/. So when you look at my favorite hydro flask it is kin-dove a weird purple. Like it is an indigo but like a water color purple too. You know it’s like if added mor blue to like a regular purple. Ok besides the color, my mom put this “life is good” sticker on it and I hate. It is SO cringey.

Ok so my paragraph is like bad now. Well it wasn’t like it was great before and then it turned good. I mean like I thought it was good but I still thought it needed some editing. Then we did this introduction thing and now I’m like my paragraph is the literal WORST. That’s like a “when you thinks it’s good but it really sucks” joke. Do you know what I mean. Not a lot of you can probably relate to this though.

I really can’t with when people say they are going to do something and then they don’t. It just really gets on on my nerves. Or when someone is like ya I promise we will do this on Tuesday and then there like how about tomorrow. Then we’ll I was busy so maybe Friday. I am so sorry but I’m busy so maybe next Thursday.

Ok so I actually finished and then I was like that is too short so I added another paragraph. That’s my Foucault though for not just adding it in the first place though.

Ok thighs is the last thing but apparently Mr. Sellers is making us do all our iPad work with our iPad flat on the table. And with those stupid little chairs that he has in there (there really stools but anyways) it is super annoying.

Hello everyone!! Welcome back to another news report with me! The picture is Mrs. Shores’ great artistic abilities! I was drawing a mustache on Turtle, and Mrs. Shores noticed that he needed a monocle! 🤣🤣🤣

Today’s first topic is, school! I think that having us not go to school tomorrow, but making us go BACK on Friday is mean. I love school, but waking up in the mornings is something that I don’t like because I have the softest blankets and the comfiest pillows ever! Pause: Do you guys like squishy pillows or hard ones? Unpause! So yeah, I LOVE MY BED!!!! Also, I really want some Olive Garden right now. Their breadsticks are THE BEST BREADSTICKS IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE!!!!

Next! I’m a proud mother of 3 male guppies! I had 4, but then my sister killed 3 of them while I was on vacation, so I had 1 left. Then, I got two more guppies and they are beautiful!! 😝 My guppy I’ve had the longest and that has survived, is named R2-D2! My other ones have not been named yet, so if y’all have any name suggestions for 2 male guppies, please tell me because I feel like I’m failing as a mother! 😝😝😝 I’m not sure they really care, but still!

Next, Band! I did my playing test on… a couple days ago and I think I did fairly well, but my first notes were really, really, shaky because I was soooooo nervous. As you all know, I’m a very shy person, unless you get to know me. Then I blab on and on about random things. Then, in Advisory on my Temprature Check, I told Mr. Paulus that I was pretty much failing in Math because I only had an A and not an A+ and he laughed at me! It was pretty embarrassing, but I don’t really think that anyone noticed. 🤣🤣

Finally, and I promise that this is the last thing, My dog!
I literally just had to shove my dog’s pill down his throat. It was so gross and he kept spiting it back out all over me. 🤢 I forgive him though, because how could you not forgive a dog? Okay guys. I’m sorry that this was super long and I hope that even though it is long that you enjoyed it!! Have an awesome day off y’all! 😊

I’m glad that I don’t have school tomorrow because it’s like a day break but I still am kind of mad about how the day after is school. I would rather have school tomorrow and then no school Friday so I can get 3 days of sleeping in instead of sleeping in this morning and then the weekend, even though you can’t change it because it’s a holiday on that day but I still would want no school Friday.

I added in a picture of a turkey because I didn’t know what it talk about and people forget about thanksgiving and think about Christmas. And I do that too. It’s probably because Christmas music is stuck in my head all year and since November is before December I forget about Thanksgiving and just think about Christmas.

Once upon a time there was a Fred, but this Fred was a legend a god, if you will. And what I mean when I say god is he is paying me to make this so I gotta make it good. Anyways, this Fred often thought about his name and whether or not he liked it. Often times he did, he was chill with it as one would say. But other times he wasn’t, he thought it was strange, unsatisfactory, and weird cause yeet. So he thought of some possible names and of course there was the normals names like Bob, and joe, and billy, and then there was billy bob joe. But that wasn’t good enough he had yet another idea and it was… (scroll down for part two)

(Part two) so anyways his idea was… signis buckinator, or kippykow. I know, I know, you’re probably thinking something like what on earth is that? Well, let me explain. This Fred had a father who would say things like signus buckinator and kippykow because they sounded nice. But with signus buckinator it was different… it was and actual thing. DUN DUN DUNNNN! Yes, it was the scientific name of a swan so yeet. (Why do I say yeet? I don’t know ask the maker of the world… actually no one can answer that question forget it) but kippykow wasn’t… it was just a name we were going to name my dog that didn’t happen :( it would have been so cool to have a dog named kippykow but it wasn’t to be. (Put sad face in comments for kippykow) so yeah… that’s the story. WAIT! No we need an ending. Ok here. But in the end he decided to stick with Fred (mainly because it wasn’t legal for someone under 18 to change their name) so yeet. His name is Fred and he is a legend. The end

Today I I’ll be talking about this random kid. We are going to call this random kid Bobby. So at break today, I was ho,ding on to this really cool stone that I bought at seaside and Bobby knocked the stone out of my hand and it broke. It was so rude because I really liked it and I can’t get a new one because it’s in seaside. Also the glass cut my hand and my finger wouldn’t stop bleeding. It was just a small cut but still. So know I HATE Bobby even more than I already did because he is always so rude.

Another “real news” is that my cat Spooke. She always pees on everything. My bed, the carpet, any bed, literally anything. She used to be an outside cat and would do her “business” outside but when we got our dogs, she NEVER goes downstairs. So we had to get a litter box and now we half to scoop her litter box everyday and it is so annoying. The bag is always super heavy. Anyway bye.

Wuddup? Welcome to the 7th week of The Lowdown With Larry! As always, I’m your host Andrew and we will be discussing the weather and how short lunch feels. We will be doing this in the opposite order because it is not Opposite Day.
Starting with the lunch topic. Whenever I am peacefully eating my peanut butter and jelly sandwich and talking to my friends, we are always interrupted by “5 minutes!” All I’m trying to say is that I think they need to give us a little more time to eat.
Lastly the weather, there is a flood watch in effect starting tomorrow and continuing until Friday night. Rain will continue, possibly clearing up in about a week🤞. That’s all for this week, as always thanks for reading The Lowdown With Larry and hit the like button.🐐

Welcome back to more weekly news with Emma!! Today we will be talking about Bacon! Who doesn’t love it. It can be cooked a variety of ways. It can be soft, crunchy, chewy or crispy! How do you like your bacon cooked? Did you know that 70% of the bacon consumed in the US is eaten at breakfast? Also, more than 2 billion pounds of bacon is produced each year in the US! That’s a lot of bacon! Yum!

Our second topic is about hot chocolate bombs!! It is a chocolate shell filled with marshmallows and hot chocolate mix. Put the two half’s together and voila! Hot chocolate bombs. If any of you guys like to bake, checkout How To Cake It. They have livestream classes that you can join and they teach you different techniques! They have everything from macarons to mini cakes and cookie lettering! The best part is you have access forever!! I recently took a class on hot chocolate bombs! It was the best! I’ve also done one on buttercream flowers! It was so much fun!

Anyway, that’s all for this week! See you next time!

I have two things I have been suggested to talk about one, bread and two, I had never heard of until we had a conversation, ‘runners high’. But bread always goes first, as we say happiness is freshly baked bread. I know, I’m funny. And I did not look up ‘bread quotes’ on google for that. If i where to be honest, I’ve only have had about 10 different types of bread in my life time. Zucchini bread, Zucchini bread with chocolate chips, wheat bread, white bread, banana bread, banana bread with chocolate chips, English muffins, French bread, and a whole bunch of mystery bread that I have ate not caring what type of bread it is. If I like it I eat it. I don’t care if you say that it’s not a new type of bread if it has chocolate chips, because it is. It changes everything, the texture, look and taste. Have you ever had a good piece of bread? No? Here are some tips: Any decent bread should have a good flavor; it shouldn't taste like eating air. A loaf of bread does have to look gorgeous to be tasty, a pretty bread certainly makes eating all the more enticing. A good finish or glaze, especially on sweet breads, should be an indicator of quality. That is how you find a good piece of bread.

I will now move onto runners high, which according to google is “a brief, deeply relaxing state of euphoria. Euphoria is a sense of extreme joy or delight. In this case, it occurs after intense or lengthy exercise. Often, people who experience a runner's high also report feeling less anxiety and pain immediately after their run.” And even though this was my first time hearing about runners high, I experienced it so much during cross country. Especially after we did our lucky run the day before our meets. One time we did this super long run. It was so miserable and I even got a thorn stuck in my ankle. We went on the lodging trail and took a turn towards the middle of the walkway to the bridge near Fredmeyer, after that we ended up near the cemetery which is where most of the thorns where. There was someone in front of me and they ran over one of the thorns so once they picked their foot back up it hit my ankle. I felt a small poke but I didn’t think anything was stuck. But once we made it to one of the crosswalks near Fredmeyer and all of those stores we stopped to wait for the cars to stop, and I looked down and noticed there was an actual thorn in me so one of the coaches took it out for me because I was too scared😔. But yeah, once we finished that I felt so good. And the thing is that while I was running I was so tired and was just dreading to finish already but once It was over I like forgot how tired I was, it’s just hard to explain in words.😢😢

First of all I’m really happy that we have no school tomorrow but I think it’s kind of weird to have a day off in the middle of the week and then come back the next day. And I think that they should have given us both Thursday and Friday off.

My second topic is that I hate rushing to the buses after school ends. When the bell rings I try to hurry and get to my locker as fast as I can and grab my stuff. It would have been nice to talk to friends at the end of the day but instead I just hurry to get to the buses because I’ve already almost missed the bus multiple times.

So I have two topics for today. The first thing I am going to talk about is we should skip decorating for thanksgiving and get right to the Christmas decorating. But My mom has to decorate for each holiday. I also don’t like having the decorations up for less than a month. The good thing is I have decorated my room and I have started listening to Christmas music. I have also worn like the same Christmas pjs every night. I also have question for those who celebrate what’s your guys favorite movies for the holidays?

My next topic is about how tired I am everyday. Every morning is struggle, I know they are talking about changing the times but still it doesn’t change how this year is going to go . I also have pe first period which doesn’t help. I also I have to leave earlier because I live further out. I wake up at like 5:45-6:00 in the morning so I’m always tired and never have the energy to learn. I have also almost fallen asleep in many of my classes. Which is not helpful if I’m trying to keep my grades up .

# data[].attributes.body
So today I’m going to talk about trees. Trees are basically very tall plants.
Fun facts
Did you know that trees can grow to 210 feet tall?Because I surely did. Also trees are the longest living organism on the planet. They can live 4,000 to 5,000. Trees can also predict climate change. When the trees rings are thin, it shows when resources are scarce in the environment. Some trees, believe it or not, have been to the moon. The craziest thing is trees are able to communicate with each other to defend themselves from insects. They create a chemical to make it so the insects don’t eat their leaves, and they signal to other trees to start this process.

Different types of trees

There are around 60,000 different types of trees.  The most popular species of trees are Birch, Poplar, Elm, Chestnut, Pine, Spruce, Willow, Palm, Maple, Cedar, Oak, and Linden. My favorite trees are the ones you can climb. Some trees grow fruits and some grow nuts. ALL of the trees in the world have one thing in common: they all have seeds.

This weekend I am being forced to hang out with family members I DON’T like. My mom called it “family night” and we’re SUPPOSED to play games and just do things normal people do for “family nights”🙄 Long story short, I don’t want to spend time with them, I don’t like being related to them and they’re annoying. But on the other side I get to hangout with my fake fun family that I actually like spending time with.

I don’t really have anything else to talk about but my dad got a new house in CANBY. Which is VERY annoying. But I got a tour of it Tuesday or something and it wasn’t bad but the furniture is very old lady like and ugly. But I don’t think I’ll be spending any time over there anyways. If I wanted to, yk, spend time over there I would get another bedroom. Sounds great and all but the thing is I don’t want to spend time over there and like full on live there and switch from place to place. So it’s not gonna happen. I did find my old elf on the shelf though bc we couldn’t find her last year and had to get a new one for my little annoying cousin.

Breaking news!! New inventions have just broke to the surface! 2021 is becoming crazier than ever, and one of the newest inventions is quite literally a FLYING. CAR. yes, that’s right, a flying car. A company is designing a helicopter like car that can go not only on roads, but on land! A link will be in the comments for more info.

I used to be addicted to soap, but I'm clean now. A guy walks into a bar...and he was disqualified from the limbo contest. You think swimming with sharks is expensive? It cost me an arm and a leg. Enough with those corny jokes. Speaking of food, I’m going to talk about food I hate. Does anyone else hate celery? Or beets? Cause I do. I also hate mushrooms. But I love raw tuna, I know it sounds gross, but there is something called poke, which is raw tuna and avocado. It’s amazing. Anywho, Luke 1 signing off.

Here is the real news as I see it, so last week I was assaulted by a fork. (And yes I know I am a week late, but hear me out on this.) Basically what happened was that I was running toward my friend with my jacket and while I was running my jacket slipped out of my hand and hit him while he was sitting     on the bench. When my jacket hit him he jumped up and lunged at me with his little fork staff thing. (Which is like 8 forks all taped together.) While he was lunging at me he tripped.

After he tripped one of the forks crashed just above my eye, but it had enough force to shatter the fork staff and slice me just above my eye. Witch hurt so badly, after that I collapsed to the floor screaming in pain because I thought that I was going to lose my EYE! Luckily I got home and now I just have four red dots under my eye brow where the fork hit.

Hey everybody! Welcome back to another week with me! Today, I am going to be stating a lot of facts. It’s all going to be narrowed down into two different categories: Musical Instruments and Peaches. First, let’s talk about peaches. They are a summertime favorite around the world. This delosious fruit is a great source of vitamin C, A, low in calories, and free off cholesterol, sodium and fat. There are two main types of peaches. The clingstone peach which is more suitable for processing because the flesh clings to the stone of the peach which makes it hard to separate. The others type is the freestone. This type of peach is ideal for fresh consumption because the pit can freely separate from the flesh.

My next topic is musical instruments. There are over 1,500 instruments. All of them are split up into six major categories. They are bowed strings, woodwind, brass, percussion, keyboard, and the guitar family. I play the flute which belongs in the woodwind group. The five most popular instruments are the piano, the guitar, the drums, the flute (which I play), and the violin. There are many more types of instruments than the ones I listed. If you haven’t joined band this year, you should definitely join for next year!

That’s it for this week! Thanks for reading and have a great rest of your day off! Bye!

So on the 7th of November it was day light savings time. I don’t think it affected me much, I think it actually improved my schedule. I don’t know why, but if I get less sleep in a night I feel more energized in the morning🤔. So, on a regular day I would wake up at 6. But with daylight savings time everyone is waking up earlier so. I’m still waking up at 6, but my body thinks it’s 5. I don’t know why my body feels better, I’m just weird like that.

Another thing that is on my mind is math class. I don’t know if it is the teacher or the curriculum but it is really, really, boring. All we do is get homework, do it, go back to class, explain it, get more homework and repeat. Also I have it 1st period, so it definitely doesn’t motivate me for the rest of the school day. I’m not trying to complain, I just am using this for something to write about. Also, why is the background of this padlet some brownies or cookies or something?

# data[].attributes.body
Well, I guess I’m one of the last people to do this. If you are reading this, A+ for you! So here we are again, let’s get this started.

I’ve been noticing everyone talks about Christmas recently, so I have decided to talk about Thanksgiving. It’s the forgotten holiday. Nobody remembers it, even the stores! First week of August, Halloween decorations. Second week, Christmas decorations. The stores completely skip Thanksgiving, yet almost everyone celebrates it. Where’s the ten-foot blow up turkeys? The ten-foot blow up turkey in a pilgrim hat? The fake cardboard turkey roast? The turkey door stoppers? The turkey shaped oranges? The cranberry jelly bottles? The turkey Halloween costume? The turkey in a pilgrim hat? The glass turkey? The- that’s a lot of turkeys… Anyways, people should give Thanksgiving a lot more love.

Next, Veterans’ day. I’m sure a lot of you have this same question, but why do we have no school Thursday, but school on Friday? It doesn’t make a lot of sense. We could just observe Veterans’ day on Thursday by learning about it, since we’re not veterans. It sounded so weird to say: “See you on Friday!” On Wednesday. I feel they shouldn’t let us have a day off, not that I’m complaining though.

Thanks for reading! See you Friday, or next week!

Hello today we will be talking about two topics. Which include The new soccer team I joined here at the school and SPORTS. Let’s start with the new soccer team. In my opinion I think that I maid a good choice on joining the team because I have a good coach and have good teammates. Even tho we have not statutes playing competitive games yet when he start I think that we will have good chance of winning.

Let’s jump on to the next topics which is SPORTS. We will start of with Basketball. Leading the Western Conference with only one lost are the Golden State Warriors with a record of 10 wins and 1 lost. On the other side in the Eastern Conference are the Washington Wizards with a record of 8 wins and 3 loses. Now let’s bounce right out of Basketball and move right along into Soccer. Let’s start in Europe and look at the top 3 teams in the English Premier League currently. Chelsea leads the way with a record of 8 wins, 2 draws, and 1 lost. Right behind them and are Man City with a record of 7 wins, 2 draws, and 2 lost. Not far behind are the West Ham Hammers also have a record of 7-2-2. Traveling from Europe to Mexico we will look at the top 3 teams in the Liga Mx. At the top of the tables is las Aguilas de America. Pura America. Following are Atlas and Leon with both at a record of 8-5-4. Finally we will have a matchup that everyone has been waiting for. This is Mexico vs USA. In my opinion the biggest rival in soccer history. I personally am so excited and can’t wait but I am putting my money on Mexico. This is because my family is from Mexico and I know that I have Mexican blood and I have to support them. In conclusion hopefully Mexico can pull of the win vs USA. VAMOS MEXICO!!!!!

The real news as I see it Is that as a Seahawk fan, I am hyped for Russel Wilson’s return and really hope they can win again. It has been a struggle as a fan, and personally need something to cheer for right now. I really cannot count on the blazers for that category.
Also, my teacher in advisory is mad at me, and that isn’t fun. I also feel like my parents are mad at me for a bunch of reasons. I really make a lot of people mad. That makes sense though, and if they are mad I’ll just be nicer and more responsible

So here’s the real news!

So I’m in waltz of the flowers and WE GOT OUR COSTUMES IN!! Its are SO pretty and I can’t wait for nutcracker!  Here’s a little preview of it. (Saving the magic ;)) It’s a multi-layer skirt with pink, white and yellow. It has a sparkly torso with a flower. My dance is 7 minutes and 20 seconds so I get to show it off a BUNCH. Come see it in December! Look up; Allegro Nutcracker 2021-2022. The dress is upside down so it can stay nice and poof for my shows. It comes with a flower head piece and lace arm cuffs. I’m not on pointe shoes but I might be soon! You never know 🙇‍♀️. Ballet has always been my favorite. I’ve always wanted to be on pointe since I was basically born. I can’t think of doing anything else growing up. No matter my height! My mom always told me to believe in yourself and don’t let others knock you down. So to whoever is reading this and struggling with their appearance or mental health.. I just wanna say that you are worth it! -Roxy T.

First thing I’m going to talk about is, the fact that this week was actually surprisingly really good. I usually talk about how tired I am during the week but this week I wasn’t tired at all. Also I didn’t have a whole bunch of homework but I have two quizzes on Friday. But anyway this week was pretty good. Dance didn’t make me that sore or anything so that is also very good.

Second thing I am going to talk about is that I have a performance in the morning on Saturday and right after that I have a nutcracker rehearsal for party scene (ballet stuff). For the performance we will probably be dancing in the rain because we are dancing outside at the Saturday market. Then at nutcracker it might be a little intense because its been a while since we had a rehearsal and its getting closer to the shows. But also it might not even very intense because the teacher we have really likes all the people in party scene.

Sup, I can’t think of anything to write about but I do want to mention how I really enjoyed yesterday having school off. Yesterday was really fun because I got to go see and movie with no adults just my friends. I also got to hangout with one of my friends I have not seen for a while. We made crepes and it was so fun because we both like baking and cooking. I also did some stuff like playing piano or at least trying to.

My other topic is about my cat. My cats name is whiskey. The reason why is because he has the longest whiskers ever and he is so cute. At the side is a picture of my cat. He loves to cuddle and lay in the sun. That is all for the news I have also hope you like my cat. 😁

Hi everyone!

This week I want to talk about theater. THE PLAY IS IN, LIKE, A FEW WEEKS! I love to act and I love the character I got. She is really fun to play as. I really hope that I don’t get sick for the play so that I can be in it. I do love the play we are doing right now but I really want to get to the musical already. I love to sing and my dream is to be on Broadway. I want to do the Little Mermaid, but I think that we are going to do Beauty and the Beast. (Or Moana!) I hope that I either get Moana, Tafiti, Belle, or Lumier. (I totally spelled that wrong.)

I am so mad about what happened yesterday. You might be wondering what happened yesterday. None of you should know what happened. So here’s the story. I was at musical theater with Allegro last night and a bunch of things happened. First of all, the program is mostly focused on the leads, so us side characters have to be sad and wait for them to get done with just the scenes the leads are in. Well yesterday they were criticizing my singing, so I said, “Okay I’ll just listen this time so I can hear the right pitches,” and our teacher called me sassy. He also keeps me and my friend apart, even when we don’t talk at all! I tried to project my voice and he told me I was singing too loud. It’s no longer fun. Ms. Hannah does a much better job. Go Ms. Hannah! Thanks for listening to me rant on and on about this, bye!

Yo, I finished all of my real news and then it magically deleted so I’m not very happy with padlet, this’ll be quick. I’m getting a cat. I’m really excited because my old one died 11 months ago and I’ve wanted one since, he was the strangest goblin I have ever seen. The thing is, my family is lazy so I have to do all the work for it. I have to apply for all of them and try to find them and everything because nobody else wants to do it and they aren’t really being big helps in telling me what they even want. It’s cool though, I have it covered and I’m really excited. Chances are we’ll get it tonight or tomorrow, but if we got it tonight I couldn’t see it much because I have to take my friend to the game.

Second, I’ve realized that I literally just feed my friends. On Wednesday four of them asked me multiple times if I had any food. Or just came up and took it from me. It’s all good, I let them have my lunches and I bring extra stuff for them sometimes. If they’re happy and physically sustained I don’t really care. Alright, I’m still mad at padlet and don’t want to write more so byebye, have a bingus day, if you’re at the game come find me and I’ll give you a penny.

Hello and welcome back to the real news. I got foster kittens this week and let’s just say these kittens are… interesting. There’s only 3 of them and we only get to have them for like 3 weeks. But they’ve already destroyed my house. We didn’t get to choose the names this time, so the foster facility did. They decided to name them after Harry Potter characters. Which is actually quite fitting because it seems like witchcraft how quickly they can destroy something. There’s 2 boys and 1 girl. One is named Hermione who is the MONSTER of the group. There’s also Harry and Ron who are a bit better behaved.

Hermione HATES people and animals and literally anything. She won’t even let people touch her without clawing their eyes out. The other 2 are kind and really nice, but they’re scared of her. Like seriously you put all 3 of them in a room together and Ron and Harry just bolt to the corner. But we’re trying to socialize them as much as possible, so they will be adopted.

Tables. Tables tables tables. CHANGE THE TABLES BACK IN THE LUNCHROOM. It makes me sad that they haven’t changed it back to the actually safer option. T-T.
I got this cool ball thing and it floats and if you throw it at a 15 degree angle it is a boomerang and it has lights and it’s a cool ball thing.

I hate being sick and I hate missing school. Nobody likes being sick. I missed 3 days of school, that’s 3 days to much. I love school, I love my teachers, I love seeing my friends and classmates, I love almost everything there is to school and when I miss it because I’m sick, it sucks. Do you know what sucks more than missing school, missing after school actives, I mean no dance, no drama, no volleyball ,no nothing! It WaS VeRy DePrEsSiNg!! But my mom is great company but she didn’t want to get sick so she social distanced from me which is also very depressing. Anyways I was glad I got to go to school today, I missed everybody and everything at Baker Prairie!

I don’t really know what to say so I’ll just say whats good in the world because I think people should hear that there is hope for us after all and that humans are actually pretty decent organisms.  There is more good people in the world than bad. It seems hard to believe but there are good people in the world and we should acknowledge them. There is always people who stand up for what’s right and helping other people. They usually get ignored and overshadowed with all of the bad stuff in the world, but there are good people in this world willing to fight for what’s right.  I would like to say more but I’m running out of space and I’m tired so that’s the real news as I see it.
