The Bishop

The title of this post sounds like a horror movie title, so I assure you that it is not. I must start by saying that I am sorry for not posting sooner, I have been very busy. Well, now that that is over, lets get down to business. I am in Washington, at my dads house. My dad is a bishop, and every Sunday we go out in the ambulance he bought,

and feed the homeless. it's fun and it's better than sitting in a church felling sorry for yourself and talking about helping, but never really getting around to it. I have a job, I cater now, get payed 10 dollars an hour. I also go to Goodwill and buy fabric to make clothes out of. I need a zipper though... Anyway, I hope you like this extremely short post.
Your friendly neighbourhood blogger,

The TRUE Tail of Echo and Narcissus

Some of you may have heard, some might not have. But on Friday, March 14th 2010, Narcissus Died. So I would like to share with you the TRUE story of Echo and Narcissus.

It was a hot Wednesday in Montana but Echo was happy anyway. She had had her mother write her a permission slip the night before. She was going to get a goldfish after school. She managed to make it through the day with out having an aneurysm and ran straight to the science room. As soon as Echo got there she realized that EVERYONE wanted a fish!!! She ran over to the table and snatched up a container with a fish in it. After Echo got the tank set up she put the fish in the tank and fed it. She looked at the fish. The fish looked at her. And Echo said this is my Narcissus. Then went to bed. When she woke up the next morning she Narcissus. Then got ready for school. After school she came home and fed Narcissus. It went like this until Saturday. Saturday morning Echo woke up and went over to Narcissus's tank. She looked to see where he went, and when she found him, he wasn't moving, and he was stuck to the filter. Echo reached in the tank and pulled him off the filter. He still wasn't moving. She picked him up and started crying. Her mother took her to Pioneer Park, where they found a big tree and Echo buried Narcissus in the coffin she had made of felt for him. She made him a headstone out of some sticks and embroidery thread. And that is the story of Echo and Narcissus.

Meet My Narcissus!

Meet Narcissus, the newest member of the croman family! He is a Goldfish, and where did he come from? So glad you asked. I got my Narcissus at school. From science. We were doing a live fish experiment, and don't ask me where Mrs. Greene got 52 Goldfish. but she didn't want to keep them, so she let 50 students take them home(two of them died due to fish abuse by my fellow classmates). I made Narcissus a poem:

Narcissus:

N is for Nice, because all goldfish are.

A is for Awesome and that's a fact.

R is for Radical, my favorite word!!!

C is for Cool, Goldfish rule!!!

I is for... Ice cream!!!

S is for Super Fish!!!

S is ALSO for... Singing! Narcissus likes songs. He's also pretty good at break dancing...

U is for Under Water. One of the few words that fit a Goldfish in this poem!

S were back at S again... I'm all out, let me know if you can come up with some fishy S words...

To: Mr. Kelley

Okay, so let me say first of all, I'm VERY sorry for not updating sooner. I've had homework, mainly math, but unlike in Washington, here in Montana, we have LOTS of homework.

Okay, now that I've said that, time to get on with the actual post...

Mr. Kelley, you would LOVE it here! All the girls are football fans, and all the guys are playing football. It is sunny ALL the time, and we go to parks EVERY DAY! IT DRIVES ME CRAZY!!!! but anyway... i'm doing awesome in school. I keep my grades up, and, MR. Bills you're probably going to have heart attack after you hear this... I have an A+ in Geography! And Mr. Kelley, don't worry, i'm passing in Math too, I've only had 3 weeks of school, so it's not much to grade me off of, and I believe that I have a B+ in math, so you taught me well. And here, just for you, Mr. Kelly, drum roll please... THE HUSKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I miss you Mr. Kelley, I wish you were here teaching me because you were an awesome teacher, and because you didn't assign so much homework. OR homework on the weekends!!! these Montana people are CRAZY!!!!!!

To: Ms. Wamba

Alright, so I gave a shout-out to my science teacher, Mr. R. So here's a shout-out to my LA (Language Arts) teacher, Ms. Wamba (cheering in background). I miss being there, you were THE BEST EVER!!! I am sure that it can't be too dull though, what with Tyler and all... But I miss your lessons about Main ideas and books galore, I miss your sense of humor, and all of your ducks. The English teacher here's very nice, she goes easy on me because I'm new, and she says that you were a lucky teacher to have me, but really, I was lucky to have you teaching me. Thank you Ms. Wamba, for teaching me everything I needed to know.
sorry about the lighting, Ms. Wamba :(

To: Mr. Reynoldson

Mr. Reynoldson is my science teacher at CRMS, so i figured that since I abandoned him, leaving him with those crazy people(just kidding) I owe him an apology/ present. so here it is:

This is what I did most of the trip...

SNOW!!!

Sclee!!!!!!!

Hi! Sorry I didn't post yesterday! I had TONS of homework! SO...most of you are probably wondering WHAT Sclee is. Well, let me explain. Sclee is what I thought the abbreviation for school was for texting. In my defense, it was my first text, and it was to my mom. Hi Mom!!! But anyway I go to school now. and I'm taking Home EC and Spanish for my electives. and the school has TWO FLOORS!!! That is crazy!! I have NEVER been in a school that has two stories!!! The teachers are nice too. But I still miss my old teachers... The teachers here are cool and easy going. But I miss the old 'you have to do this, this way, and do it now!!' But it is hard being the new kid again. I never get used to that. But the people are nice.

Most of you probably don't know this, but every Thursday, I cook for the family. It helps me get used to providing for a family. so I made Breakfast for Dinner tonight. pancakes, waffles, eggs, omelets, milk, water, tea, and hot cocoa. ANY who...gotta go. so bye.
