What Is Wrong With The World?

I am mad at the world for a multiple number of reasons.

1. Every song is inappropriate, yet people act like they are still really great. I think that artists should stop making these songs (probably the reason why we have so many "cursers" in gym class, they think it's okay, it's NOT!). Maybe they should write about something non-explicit, like sunsets or how much explicit songs stink. I just found out that one of my favorite songs (Dynamite) has part of the lyrics cut out because they say some things I will not mention.

Well, after finding out the truth, here's what I wish would happen to every radio playing that song:

 

WAHAHAHA!
Sorry, my temper kind of got the best of me and now I am stuck in bold font. Oh well, I deserve it.


2. The entire world treats us kids like sales targets. We are KIDS, not sales targets. And plus, the Macy's Day Parade has gone too commercial. Everything is sponsored. Thanksgiving isn't Thanksgiving anymore, it's the prelude to Black Friday. Feel the same way I do? Wish the companies had some restraint? Copy my blog button and paste it on your blog with pride! (Look for it by my "Kids Can Blog" one.)


So, that concludes this post.
Next time...we will have a bit of poetry (I see your grin, Mom)!

  

Stunts

A lot of you have been wondering what stunts I am good at. Here is a video clip of me doing my Epic Sequence move. Kids, if you want to try this at home, jump up really high, bounce on your bottom, try to do a handstand, and then flop down and do the worm. This was not my best try, but it's the only video footage I have of it, so oh well.

It's Cold Season....

...but colds aren't the only thing spreading (although I caught one, forcing me to sleep with the humidifier, use up all the tissues in Keyboarding, and drink enough water to run out of bathroom passes in my agenda).
A familiar epidemic has once again returned....The Blogger Buzz!

Two of my friends at school have new blogs. Want to look at them? Go to my blog list and look towards the top. Also,don't forget to check out the old but good blogs of Soso and Vicki (Vicki's Fun Times, Soso's Prose).

Laney is also thinking about getting a blog called Laney's Luxurious Life (Coming to a blog list near you!).

So, I will get an ice cold water (ha ha) and BLOG YOU LATER!

Can I Have Some Ketchup, Please?

I have not posted here for a really, really long time, so it's time for a..... Ketchup Post! I haven't been posting because of (duh duh duh...) BOOK REPORTS! (Enter Toccata in Fugue and lightning streaks....) OK, it wasn't that bad. So, here's the recap, starting with our trip to Maryland.....

Before we left Maryland, Cousin Studios got a great new section of movies: Webcam! Our cousins have an awesome webcam with all these cool effects like avatars, snow, and the ability to draw on videos. We started a new movie series called The M Show where we disscuss the arts, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, balloon fights, and mysterious indoor blizzards. (Don't ask.) Plus, when we were about to leave, I got loaned Mario Kart! Only the most awesome video game ever! Then we drove home and school started up again......

Although we were pressured with 9 Weeks Tests, quizzes, Book Reports, reading logs, and more, we still found time to start new fads. Eraser City and The Lays Boycott Club died down (stay tuned for the rest of the story!), and in their place sprang up....

The JBBC (Justin Bieber Boycott Club). We all hated this music "star" so much that we decided to boycott him! In between talking about his awfulness, we make up song parodies about him (Justin Bieber has rabies, rabies, rabies, OH!).

Paper Skateboarding. Laney's friend K loves real skateboarding, but after playing with a Post-It in math class, he got an idea to make paper skateboards. We fold Post-Its, draw cool designs on them, and then use everyday objects as half pipes, railings, and obstacle courses. K even has a popular bartering business where he trades skateboards for Mentos, and he is thinking about selling skateboards through the school store.

Flipbooks. Yet another fad involving Post-Its, flipbook making has become an art. It all started with K's friend D, the Post-It guru, and began circling its way around other GT classmates. I have made several, including ones about a marathoner, people crushing Lays bags, and archery practice.

Comics. I wrote a graphic novel about the Lays Boycott Club (the sequel is coming soon!), and this fad was born! Before long, there were comics about everything, from erasers to a typical day at middle school.


Then, there was the GA fundraiser. At the end of the month, I had 7 duckies (not counting the X-Ray duck I lost) and 11 subscriptions- enough to go to the Mega Party and get VIP status! Thank you Mom and Dad for doing Christmas shopping to help our school! Everybody claimed it was a ripoff- but they were wrong. There were 6 inflatables, including an obstacle course, jousting ring, giant-scale game involving a wrecking ball(again,don't ask), and the "sticky wall." Not to mention soda and the opportunity for VIPs to beat the crowds and arrive 25 MINUTES EARLY! WOO WOO!

Also, some good news... I'm going to a forensics competition! I am in the category Serious Poetry and I am  looking forward to competing.

So, that concludes yet another..... Ketchup Post!

Blog Ya Later!

P.S. Thank you, Laney, for spreading the word and getting your friends to read. It was getting quiet around here!
