In Language Arts, we have just finished The Giver, a novel by Lois Lowry. In the Novel, Jonas, the main character lives in a world where everything is black and white, the same, and will never change. When Jonas becomes twelve, he is asked to be the next Receiver, and to train for this job, he meets with The Giver everyday. Before his training, Jonas’ has gotten used to sameness, but the Giver shows him the real world, and things outside his community. Once the Giver and Jonas spend more time together, Jonas and the Giver actually get closer that Jonas and his family are.
In Jonas’ community, all the people are the same, they don’t know the real things in the real world. Jonas didn’t know them either, but then the Giver showed him everything. He showed him things like Christmas, Sleding, the sunshine, everything his community had lived without for hundreds of years, (weird, I know!). So, over time Jonas get a lot closer with the Giver because Jonas can express his real feelings with the Giver. He can’t tell his family, or anyone in the community what he knows, so only the Giver and him know what the real world is like. For this reason, Jonas and his family can’t act as a “real” family. Jonas can’t share things with them or be happy, he has to be the same as everyone else, and appear to no nothing of the real world.
The Giver is a great book and I highly recommend it!

Everyone of us has different hobbies that we all like and enjoy, right? Well, I made this survey for fun, and I suggest all readers take it. It is just for fun, and was one of those things I do when I’m bored.

I haven’t blogged in so long, I have just now come back to the computer in the mist of everythign going on in my life!
Tennis:
My middle school tennis team has just concluded its season and it went out with a BANG! I participated in the conference championship in a doubles playing position, and my partner and i did very well! Our team ended up winning and it was my first year doing competative tennis, so it was AWESOME!
Swimming 2009-2010
Well, my hectic swim season has started again, and things are as busy as ever! We have a whole new group of kids in my group and we are getting to know each other very well! My coach is awesome as always and the first meet went great. I am going to continue swimming this year, and I will hope for another fast season!
FPS:
I have started FPS thsi year with three of my close school friends. We have just finished the forst problem, and have been meeting at the library over weekends to get together. It you, the reader, are lost and don’t know what FPS is, go the the website at this link. So far it has been really fun, and I have a feeling this year will be really fabulous!
School:
As you know I am now in seventh grade and it is a new, great experiance! The is a little more homework involved, but all my teachers are good, and my friends are in a lot of my classes. (More info on 7th Grade, At Last post)
So, that’s why I haven’t been blogging for a while. But I am going to blog more consistently this year, leave more comments, all that good stuff!
Happy Blogging!

7th grade has started for me and all my friends, FINALLY! I was very ready for school to start. It is actually the third day of school now, but I have adapted well. For the past two years, I have not switched classes that much, so changing every period is a change for me. It’s OK though, all the teacher’s are nice, and I’m doing just fine so far. Also, in our school, when you are in 7th grade, you get an extra period of study hall! This might sound kind of boring, but it is a great time to do all the homework I’m assigned. For the past two days, we have just been talking about rules, but all the classes sound great, and I will get a lot out of them. I also have all my friends in all of my classes. There are also some new people, who I’m getting to know very well! I’m also on the tennis team with my friends, and it is going quite well. I will start up swimming soon, but for now I’m just chillin’ and playing tennis
And, best of all, MY LOCKER IS AWESOME!

I finally have admitted it: I miss school! Not only do I miss the actual school, but I miss all of my friends. I have seen some of them from time to time this summer, but there is nothing like seeing them every day! Our school sends out what should be our schedules in the middle of summer. They are 99% sure that is what our schedule is, but it could change before school actually starts. I have a great schedule, and there is somebody I know in every class! Actually, I’m underexaggerating, I have at least 3 people I know in EACH of my classes! I’m so excited, and our school is using a lot more technology now, so the supply lists are different from last year! IT WILL BE SO AWESOME! I just want school to start! I have had a nice vacation, but I’m ready to get back to what I do in the majority of the year!

On the 4th of July, yesterday, it rained like there was no tomorrow! It was pouring down rain all afternoon, and eventually the fireworks were canceled at the local park. But, no problem. Today we were informed that we are going to have the great festival tonight instead! However, there were still some wierdo’s who did fireworks last night at about 12pm! I slept through it, but apparently they were very loud!
Anyway, I’m so excited about the fireworks! They look so cool and have an unforgetable sound when they errupt! I always see friends, play around, and cheer with joy when they are going off! So, below are a couple pictures of fireworks. I hope everyone around America has a great 4th of July and has seen some great fireworks!
