Friday morning I walked to school with my friend. As we walked my arms became more and more itchy. I assumed it was due to the cold weather and dry skin, but when I got to my locker in school, I realized I had a dosens of what looked like bug bites on my arms surrounded by redness. My friend told me I need to go to the nurse. With permission from my father, the nurse gave me a Benadryl. I was told that it was probably an allergic reaction which is a thing that never happened to me before. It took about and hour for the bumps and redness to leave my skin.
I've been reading the Hunger Games trilogy, and yesterday my dad bought me the third book. I took it to class and, stupidly, left it there under my desk. I managed to go back to the room during the next passing period to look for it, but it was gone and my teacher said he hadn't seen it. I assume it was stolen since it is a popular book, but I'd hate to think the worst.
Tomorrow is my first track meet of the season. When we were practicing today, I was able to vault over a 7 foot bar, which is better than I ever did last year. This little bit of improvement is very encouraging for me. I just hope I can keep it up for tomorrow.
Thanks to Kira's description of a beaver tail, I want to try one now, but I thought they did look a bit weird when I looked them up on Google.
Campion, I thought the US was the only country that spelled "color" they way we do. We have a lot of spelling differences in the US though.
Deidra, I though part 1 of your post was adorable. I'm glad you had a great birthday, and congrats on being accepted to a university!
I, too, LOVE Avatar: The Last Airbender. The sad thing is that I never enjoyed it until it wasn't airing anymore. My favorite two characters were Sokka and Zuko. I've seen the first episode of Korra, but I haven't had a lot of time to sit back and enjoy the other ones. And, Kayla, I have never heard of Pizza Cones in my life.
Katie, I pretty much agree with everything you said about Lady Godiva. I did enjoy the song enough to buy it and a few of the remixes. I had to write an essay on Catcher about what Holden's red hunting cap symbolized. That was one of the more painful in-class essays I had to do.
We had a game like the one you described that we played a lot in elementary school. It was called Doctor Spy. The doctor would go around to those players sitting on the ground and pull them back behind a certain line. The spy could cross the line in the middle of the gym and get people out that way. We did happen to play it once this year in my Personal Fitness class and, yes, I did enjoy being "the doctor." My whovian friend and I laughed at that.
I'm still confused a bit about this new layout too, Adam. Earlier today a friend told me she wanted to learn how to speak in a Irish accent. She's pretty good already but she kept saying how (apparently) "orange" is said funny in the Irish accent. I don't know where I'm going with this, but I had thought of you when she was rambling.
That's all for today.
DFTBA
Kate
