ANOTHER Field Trip!

Today we (1st-4th Grade) went on another field trip, the last of the year for the 4th graders. It was to go see High School Musical 2 at Pershing Middle School. It wasn't really that good in my opinion, the acting and singing weren't that good. One of the only (kind of) funny parts was at the end, where the cast was singing "All For One" a couple of extras came off the stage and had some of the people from the first 10 or so rows dance with them (because there was a bunch of space in between the stage and audience). Then some people (namely BOYS) from my class jumped in from the back and starting dancing. They were mostly "Disney" boys. Even a boy in my class with a cast on his arm! There's another guy in my class (we call him Tay-Tay) and he has this, like, HUGE crush on Selena Gomez (and he isn't afraid to admit it, he has a HUGE picture of her on his folder!) . He LOVES Disney, and he was the only Disney boy that wasn't up there dancing. Something else funny was something he said after our teacher reminded us of the field trip yesterday before school ended,"Oh YEAH! I'll be rooting for Sharpay ! Guess what Miss O! I'll be singin' along!"
After the play when we were eating lunch, my friend (nicknamed Nacho Cheese) said, "OMG Sharpay was SO ugly," and then Tay Tay said, "No she wasn't! She was AWESOME!"
Troy was shorter than Gabriella.
That's all I have to say.

SPONGE DODGE BALL!!!!!!!!!!!

The title says it all. Today, we played Sponge Dodge Ball at school. It was SO fun! You guys REALLY should have been there. There were a bunch of wet sponges, and there were 2 teams and each had their own square on the blacktop. We threw the wet sponges at each other till we were SOAKED! Of course, you were supposed to DODGE the sponges, but nobody really cared about that (but I did), they just cared about getting the other team soaked to the bone. Since I dodged (most of) the sponges that were thrown at me, I didn't really need the extra clothes I had brought because I wasn't soaked to the bone. The principal was playing, too, but she wasn't really on either of the teams, she was just standing in the middle of the two squares getting super-wet. I don't know how many times I got her- let alone the number of times ANYONE got her- all I know is she got pretty wet. It's kind of awkward when someone you think is all professional and business-like and serious and grown-up cuts loose and acts all kiddish and actually has some FUN?
Today is also Open House for our school (kind of odd, isn't it, at the end of the year? ). Our teacher was making us clean like CRAZY! (No offense, Miss O!) We cleaned out the inside AND outside of our desks, we swept, we organized the book bins, we did (pretty much) everything! :) Well, that's it for today! (I might) See you tomorrow!

Wii Fit

I forgot to tell you the other day that I got Wii Fit! It is so fun. You guys who have a Wii, you should try it. There is Yoga, Strength Exercises, Aerobic Exercises, and Balance games. Here are the games I have unlocked so far (I don't remember what exercises I have unlocked):
Aerobics- Hula Hoop, Super Hula Hoop, Basic Step, Advanced Step, Basic Run, and 2-player Run.
Balance Games- Soccer Heading, Ski Slalom, Ski Jump, Penguin Slide, Rhythm Boxing (I don't remember the others, I think I have 2 more.)
What is YOUR Wii Fit age? Mine is 16 as of May 24th.

Here's another riddle (you might need a regular book with 40+ pages)
Mr. Smith was in his study. He needed to go run an errand, and he left a hundred dollar bill on his desk by a book. When Mr. Smith came back, the bill was not there. He asked the maid if she had seen where it went, and she said, "I put it under the book, so it would be safe." He looked, it was not there. He asked the butler if he had seen it. He said, "Oh, I found it under the book and put it in between some pages so it would be safer. I wrote down the page numbers- ah. 35 and 36." Mr. Smith immediately knew who stole the dollar bill and called the police. How did Mr. Smith know who stole it, and who was the stealer?
Please post your answers in a comment, and the answer will be announced on June 2nd unless otherwise.

I DO know we got mozzarella sticks, tater tots, french fries, a corn dog, jumbo popcorn chicken, an Oreo Sonic Blast, and a bacon sandwich for dad. So good!!!! Sonic is the best restaurant ever!!!!

Early Everything!

Early answer to the riddle. It is possible, but his mom's mother's daughter's son's father's sister's niece is his sister.

Early Happy Memorial Day. :)

So, have you guys read "HOOT" by Carl Hiaasen? It is such a good book. It's about this boy named Roy who just moved to Florida. He sees a barefoot boy running by the school bus and later meets him, trying to help the boy, Mullet Fingers (he can catch a mullet fish with his bare hands.) save the cute little owls whose burrows are at a construction site for a brand new Mother Paula's Flapjack House.

I have a 3-day weekend because of Memorial Day on Monday. What about you?

Bride Wars!!!

I SO wanna see that movie!!! Is it still in theaters???? My 2 friends told me about one funny part. Liv is the blonde one, and Emma is the brunette. So Liv threw a big party when she wasn't supposed to, and she and Emma are fighting and then Emma or Liv (I can't remember which) says to the other,"Oh your wedding's gonna be huuuuge... like your butt at prom." Funniness.... I have another riddle...
There is a boy at a carnival. A carnival worker comes up to the boy, and says, "I bet you 5 dollars I can write your exact weight on this piece of paper." The boy agreed because he saw no scale. Yet he still ended up losing 5 dollars. What did the carnival worker write? Answer next week with a new riddle. Comment your answers!!! :)

Riddles & Jokes

I have a really good riddle...
You are in a small 4 room house. You are in the safest room. The bathroom has giant mutant cockroaches. The bedroom has angry gorillas. And the kitchen/dining room has a bunch of lions who haven't eaten in a year. You have to go to the bathroom, you're hungry, and you're tired. Which room is the safest to go in? Answer will be posted next week.

And 2 really funny jokes...
1. There are 2 guys, Dave and Joe, who are in a mental house. One day they were walking by the pool. Dave jumped in and drowned and Joe saved him. Later their counselor said to Joe, "You can leave." Then Joe said, "Why?"
"Because you have proved you can use your brain properly."
"What about Dave?"
"He hung himself."
"Oh no, I just put him there to dry."

2. There was a little girl and a little boy talking about where Jesus is. The little girl said,"I think he's up there, guarding Heaven." The little boy said,"I think he's in the bathroom."
"How do you know?"
"Every morning I hear my dad yelling in the bathroom."
"What does he say?"
" 'Jesus Christ, are you still in there?' "



**Thanks to my 2 friends for the jokes! :)**

Torrey Pines/Cabrillo

Sorry I didn't tell you about Torrey Pines! Happy Cinco de Mayo, everyone!
Torrey Pines: was really fun. We learned about animals that live there like skunks, snakes, and animals like deer mice. We also learned about the plants there, too, like the prickly pear cactus, wild cucumber, and others. We learned about food chains too. The lunch on the beach was the best, though. I found half a crab claw and my friend found a whole lobster claw. We threw rocks in the water and chased each other around the beach.
Cabrillo/Tidepools: was fun, but not as fun as Torrey Pines. We took a hike and went on a scavenger hunt to find plants like black sage, mojave yucca, and the lemonade berry plant. Those berries were so sour and tangy! We watched a movie about the marine life in the tidepools and how they survive. Then we were off for lunch. After minutes of munching, we drove down to the tidepools. Those rocks were so slippery! I fell 2 times. Once I got my whole lower body wet and the second time I slid my foot in the water like a baseball player sliding to home base. My friend found a half a lobster being eaten by a sea anemone. I turned around because I had heard something, and I saw 2 crabs fighting. A bunch of kids came rushing over after 5 or 6 kids were gathered around, and then people started taking sides. "I'm on that crab's side!" "That one is one-armed, he's gonna lose! I'm on the two-armed crab's side!" "Me too!" After about 10 minutes, the crabs fell off the ledge and were falling into the water. People were bored by now, so everyone left. Around 1:30, the teachers said we had to leave.
When we got back to school, we all started to play four square, the bell rang, and finally school was over. The End.
