One month later...

Hi again,

I haven't updated in quite a long time... unfortunately. My life became really busy, but not we're on Thanksgiving break! That should be awesome... :)

I need this break, but I have sooooooooooooo much work to do!

CNY weather is quite weird; no snow at all, for over nine months now! Something to do with global warming, perhaps? Hmm...

Family is coming up for Thanksgiving -- hopefully, that goes well...

I'll keep things updated here, and I'm considering starting a Tumblr account too - they seem pretty cool. See you all later!

350

Don't forget to check out national Blog Action Day! It's about climate change this year. Check out one of its major sponsors: the 350 Challenge! Yay!

Oh, no!

Has it really been almost a month since I last updated??? So much has happened since then.

Let's see...

First, I'm published when writing about this blog on the Post Standard Teen Voices page: blog.syracuse.com/voices/

Also, I've been published at jdrampage.com - the new website for my school's online-only newspaper.

AP World History is going better now - I just got a 99 on my last quiz! I studied very very hard, and I know that it finally paid off. Yay!

I'm so sorry that I have not had a chance to check in more often. I'm doing a lot of leadership in the 5 clubs that I'm in, so it gets tough sometimes. I have a bit of homework that needs to get done all of the time, but it's worth it in the end.

My next post will be about something very special. I'd like to give a hint: tomorrow is Blog Action Day 2009 and the topic is climate change! :) I'm excited about that!

So, the Kanye West/Beyonce/Taylor Swift thing was crazy, huh? I cannot believe that Kanye would do something like that to ruin someone else's shining moment. How ignorant and self-centered can you get? Opinions?

And finally, when writing my blogging article, I noticed that another kid from my school blogs - Derek Horn. I don't know him, but his blog is really amusing, creative, and refreshingly sarcastic. Please check it out at derekhorn.blogspot.com.

Well, that's it for now. See you extra soon!

Hi! Here's an update.

Happy International Day of Peace!

On another note, I've been quite busy with school and clubs... Running my own is certainly not easy. I also have a leadership role in every club that I participate in, so things can get hectic sometimes. I love every minute of it all, though.

Youth orchestra has begun, and so have my weekly bassoon lessons with my other teacher. I'm really looking forward to it!

I'll be sure to update you more in the coming days.

By the way, today was the first day that I had only a light amount of homework! Yay! I've been enjoying it. Also, I was lucky enough to enjoy the last day of summer, when it hit 78-80 degrees!

Bye for now!

One week into school...

Hello world, again!

Hope you're all doing well. I was asked to write about keeping a blog for Voices, so I'm going to do that as soon as I finish this post!

So, we're one week into school now, and I'm a little booked with homework right now, so I figured I'd take a blogging break. I'm taking all Honors, one AP, and journalism and band. I'm happy that I can take personal fitness (i.e. go to the fitness center) for gym this year, because otherwise, gym+me=struggle! I've had all of my classes except for gym as of now, and I love my teachers! I seem to have a lot more work than last year, but I'm figuring things out as I go along.

Currently, I'm 29 pages into reading and annotating "Peter Pan", and 2 1/2 pages into my AP World homework. I've still got to write several other 400 word essays and such as well. Wow!

I just wanted to check in with the blog while I had the few minutes to do so!

PS - My brother was channel surfing and saw this on PBS Kids! I wish that I had this show when I was little! Adorably hip!
