wow

Wow, I realized that I have not written it quite a while! I guess that is because nothing has been going on. I was sick Sunday through Tuesday! It was terrible!! I had the worse feeling in the world!! In my family, at least Beth and I, we have strong stomachs and hardly ever throw up; this illness, whatever it was, actually made me vomit! That is how bad I felt!! Luckily, nothing much happened at school those two days because most of the kids were still in Europe from the Spring Break trip. Thursday was the huge eighth grade Shakespeare trip that they have every year! This year we saw The Count of Monte Cristo. It was so great, I was on the edge of my seat! I loved it. In seventh and eighth grade at Phillips, the students read Shakespeare; this year we are reading The Tempest! So far it is really good. We are almost done with Act 1. So, going on to a new subject, the purity ring! I got one and wear it every day! Beth gave me a beautiful ring she got a few years back! I love it so much! So much is coming up in May! I am so excited for Tracy's side of the family to come! I hope you all have a safe trip!Then, Sharon's shower will be great fun! My school is also doing some work to reach out to the Child Advocacy Center, which is a center for abused children. The same day as Sharon's shower from 10-4 we can go down to a Food World in Saraland and bag groceries for tips! All the tips will go to that center in honor of those children and in memory of the people of the Holocaust. Then, graduation/Honors day id May 8 I believe, and May 9 is the eighth grade spring social. Now, the chorus is preparing once more for one last performance! The last day of school is the eighth grade ceremony sort of event. We are singing tons of great and heart warming songs plus one up beat song called We're All In This Together from a movie that everyone likes but me! I don't like the song or the movie!! But I will make it look like I am having fun with it! Hey, that's life, you always have to do things you don't want to do. School is ending fast, my friend told me Friday that there were only 19 days left! We are all get rambunctious, soon we will go our separate ways and be in High School. We are going from the top dogs to Freshmeat, sorry, Freshmen. Oh and Winter Gaurd try outs are soon! Beth and I have got to get to practicing! I need to get this stuff down packed! Well, that sums it all up! I need to hang on, it's almost over!
