title

I've figured, for a long time, that most of you reading my blog have been wondering why my blog name is "The Miniature Onion".
Why?
Because someone, ahem, Sophia, who is forbidden to read The Onion, but reads the online version anyway because she says, "My mom said I couldn't read the newspaper," so much loves it.

So...since this is about news...I guess, somewhat, let's just say I had no other idea what to call my blog and forbidden came into my mind, and that led to "The Miniature Onion".

continued from last post

Well, I said I would add more, so I'm adding now that I have a chance.

Anyway, school started a week ago, and already on the second day of school our Spanish teacher gave us a project! Our "team" has to teach a 45-minute lesson. Every other team does too...but I mean, the class time is 50 minutes and we're supposed to provide a 45-MINUTE LESSON TO THE ENTIRE CLASS?

Especially...

With Tanner Osbourne in the class? He's going to be like, "Look, there's Hyunjin and Grace in that group. What's Moshe doing there?" He'd better not. Or I'm just going to get so frustrated. You know how it is...having Tanner in your at least three of your classes. It can drive you insane, really.

Anyway, the teachers are okay, even though they wanted supplies the next day after they told us and they wanted a notebook for every class. Which drove me crazy all around the room.

Got to go now.

school started

OMG!

I know that's a really geeky and stupid term, but I just need to get some stress out of my system.

I don't want to sit at the computer five minutes per teacher hunting for their stupid TeacherWeb page! My goodness! Just please, if you want us to look at your pages, the link? Please?
I'm so tired from organizing and trying to find all these things! Getting notebooks organized, and finding other binders.

More later.

WEB leadership

I'm a WEB leader this year. The only year. And now I have to go to school early. I liked it, yes, being accepted, but nobody really wants to go to school during the summer and see all the preppy cliques. All getting in groups except the "normal" people. Sooo...WE HAD TO CANCEL OUR ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME TRIP (because no time ever comes back) because of the WEB thing. If you skipped this certain date, you couldn't do the WEB thing.

To tell the truth, I didn't really care about the WEB thing. But seriously, a year for WEB? I had to do it.
And cancel the trip.

Did WEB, cancelled trip. And so this whole summer went down in studying and some fun.

How were you guys' summers?

I would put Hillary's up, but she's kind of backed-out, isn't she?

P.S. This is really old, but what was that Gravel guy thinking when Barack and Hilary were on the hot list?

yay!

Kristi just got back from Taiwan! Anyway, that was just a blurb.

School is going to start! I'm so excited! I don't know why, but I have this weird butterfly feeling in my stomach like you get when you're really excited... Yes. Really excited for school. I'm not weird.
I don't know why either. But I'm really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, excited! It's usually not me to really etc. be excited for school all the time, but for some really weird reason I'm... Never mind, I'm too redundant.
Well...
I just got some new stuff for school. I already have most of the stuff because what school requires is like "pencils, pens, erasers"; it's not like I need to buy new stuff every year. But I got a folder, a couple things for my locker (for those complaining that my locker is too plain), some new pencils, just because I went shopping with a friend yesterday, some highlighters, because I need them and they were cheap, some pens (same reason), and CANDY!
Oh my gosh I love Kit Kat and Sour Patch Kids.

Yeah, those are some necessities that you just have to get when you want them. Like clothes; do you really need 1,000,000 outfits? No, but people like to have them. And you're going to live for more than 1,000,000 days, you know? Sure, you want variety, but at least you're going to have to wear one outfit at least two times (more than once) in your lifetime.

Anyway...yeah.

I had fun yesterday. I went to Lakeline (okay, fun) and Target (WOOP!!!!!). I love TARGET it's like my FAVORITE EVER store. And I went with someone that loves it too.
That's where I got stuff.
I thought I needed to get a small whiteboard for my locker door...but I might get that later when I go shopping again before school starts or something like that...
I don't know.

But eventually I'll get one before. It's going to be so awesome when nobody complains about my "plain locker".

See you all later!
