A Very Unhappy Birthday

Wednesday, February 28th, 2007

The streamers drooped from the ceiling, their once curly shapes now hanging to the floor. The balloons that had been filled to the max with helium were now deflated.

What have I learned?

Tuesday, February 6th, 2007

How will you prove to your parents that you learned something?
I will prove to my parents that I learned something by demonstrating my profound knowledge of new words. I will use words like “loqacious” and “translucent” and “sangfroid” (and if anyone knows what that means, then you’re smart!) I will also share my views with […]

Super Bowl Commercials

Monday, February 5th, 2007

DISCLAIMER: SADLY, THESE COMPUTERS AND/OR LAPTOPS DO NOT PLAY THESE VIDEO CLIPS. SO, REMEMBER THIS BLOG PAGE AND ACCESS IT FROM YOUR HOUSE. Sorry.
The super bowl offers so many things: a chance to watch grown men tackle each other for a football, bet big bucks on the best team (the bears lost *sniff*), and […]
