So last week I was sick for part of the week and didn't go to school. That's all I really have to say on that subject.
On a funner note, a couple of days ago I decided to make maple syrup candy. The recipe said to heat tha maple syrup and some butter, and pour it over shaved ice or snow. We did that, but it didn't harden into candy, it dripped into the ice and ended up lookin like a maple syrup sno-cone. We ate it anyways. It tasted pretty good, but just for future reference, never ever ever ever give a four-year-old and a nine-year-old shaved ice doused in maple syrup. It WILL make them very hyper, and you WILL spend at least two hours in your room covering your ears and trying to drown out their high-pitched screeches.
Now I'm really bored. I try to write on this blog more often, but I always think that I'm so bored and there really has not been much blog-worthy excitement in my life. Hmmph.
If you don't like the big presence and noise of Evite, try Paperless Post. It's much classier, and it's like actually opening a letter, but on the computer.
Until next time...

The 23rd Post
Hello there!
I haven't written in so long... never-ending tech rehearsals, then finally performing Les Miserables. You probably already know this, but it was awesome. The fog machine set off the smoke alarm like 4 times though. I'm already itching to find out what the next musical is going to be. I love Rent, it's pretty much all I listen to on my iPod, but there is like NO chance that we are going to do that this year, because after all, we are a middle school. I would say elementary school, but next year the grades are going to be 5th grade and up. My poor sister, who is now in 3rd grade, has the age bar go up every time she gets close to old enough.
In a couple of weeks, my entire grade is going on a week-long field trip to COLORADO. ON AN AIRPLANE. (Sorry, some caps-lock excitement there.) We have a two hour plane ride, then a six hour bus ride to get there. I'm so excited for when we get there (not so excited for the getting there part)!
Imagine the surprise you would feel if you found out you booked your flight on a plane with 47 5th graders on it. :D
For a math project, I'm studying math in origami. I found this really cool site for a mathematical origami cube. It's supposed to be a lesson plan for teachers, but it's just origami instructions if you ignore all the teachy stuff. Click here to see it.
Bye for now.
