All this time (:

I was happy to hear we had a snow day wednsday. I planned to work on my Op-Ed so I started on my final draft then I got distracted, and it was done poorly. But I did study for 1984. Then, I found we had a snow day for thursday too, I was so relieved. Now, I really can work on my final Op-Ed draft, and put much needed time into it. I can also look over, and review some more 1984. I love what all this time allows me to do.


P.s. This was in the draft section, it was supposed to be posten on the on the 3rd =/

Opec-essay

Okay, so.....yeah.
How is everyone else's op-ed essay turning out?
Mine is in a mix between lackluster and craptastic.  I could really use a snow day or two!...wait....OH SNAP!  I'm putting the time into it, but the results always turn rash.
In other news, how is the test going to be?  I'm glad I didn't study or do homework AT ALL!  That way I can put all my effort into thrusday.  But seriously, do you guys think the theme idea is going to be hard?

Buried Alive

I got my mom's Suburban stuck in our driveway. I wanted to get some butter to make some chocolate chip cookies so i grabbed her car. There's no way my G-6 would have made it out alive, so I figured 4-wheel drive would be a good idea. The driveway was drifted with about 2-3 feet of snow and it was no problem, until I got to the end of the driveway. Unknown to me, the end of the driveway was drifted with about 4 feet of snow and the Suburban got really stuck. I put it from auto-4 to 4 high and nothing. So I put it in neutral and switched to 4 low. Still nothing. I decided to walk back to the house, but I couldn't open the door to the car. I started freaking out until I realized that if I pushed on the door hard enough, the snow piled up behind it would move. Eventually, Christopher came over and I was going to go to his house. He had a tug strap in his Jeep so we attached it to the tow hooks on the front of the Suburban. After digging all four tires out and some pulling, the Suburban was freed, but still no butter for my cookies. It's 12:36 am and I'm really tempted to go get some, but it's WAY too cold outside!

I'm working on my Op-Ed essay and I'm worried that it's not going to be good enough. I'm putting so much work into it, but it's still not going to be good enough...

SNOW DAY!

Today the snow day was a nice break. I think it is funny that it happened because everyone was saying that we would have one. But I shoveled snow a lot today. Hopefully Ms. Kreilick forgets about the 1984 quiz... haha

Yeah! Snow Day!

Finishing up my Op-ed essay! I think it is going better! This was the perfect day to have a snow day! Do we still have to read Johnny Got his Gun for tomarrow?

a day to catch up...

snowday! yay!! i am sure everyone is just as excited as i am about this!
even though its a day to sit and relax, its also a great day to catch up on our portfolio and op-ed.
i will HOPEFULLY be using this time wisely....
and i was very happy with the results of my last 1984 quiz, hoping the final test is a success as well!
have a good snow day everyone! :)
