A Little Bit and A Lot

Sorry that I haven't been posting lately. This have just been so busy around here! I only have 12 more days of school and then I am on Summer break. I'm really excited for the end of May, because my family and I are taking a trip down to the Lake for a few days. I really love fishing with my dad, and now I have my boaters license (Yipe!) so I can drive the boat around. My favorite fish so far is Crappie, does anyone else like Crappie? I went fishing last weekend with my dad and my uncle for an hour or so, I caught about 5 or 6 fish. That day was sort of crazy because there was a thunderstorm in the morning, delaying our journey for a while, but after we finally were on our way home, there was lots of funnel clouds and the tornado sirens were all going off. Finally, all of the tornadoes went away, so I did my homework and studied for a big Geography quiz that I had the following day. I got a 76/76 (100%) on my Geography quiz, which I am really happy about. Yesterday, I did my sit up test in gym and did the limit that they let you do, which is only 75. I remember one year, I forgot to stop at 75 so I got in trouble.. That was sort of crazy! Not only did I succeed my sit up test yesterday, but I got my new Violin after Volleyball practice. I really love the tone of my new Violin, it doesn't only sound beautiful, but it looks it too. I got 6 or 7 new Violin books, so I can't wait to try some new music out of those.
Today, part of the Orchestra is going to St. Louis for a competition. Good luck you guys!! Next year, my grade will be going on that trip. I have been seeming to post more stuff on Instagram than FaceBook, which is very unusual for me. Instagram is an iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad app. It is just like a FaceBook, but with pictures. I don't think that there is an age restriction on it, but I will have to check. You can connect to FaceBook, so then the pictures that you post on Instagram show up on your timeline. I have a Volleyball game at 3:00 pm and I am nervous because last time we got beat for the first time. I am working on my overhand serve, I just need to keep it more straight. I got Spandex Volleyball shorts last week at Dick's Sporting Goods, they are a big change for me. I picked Reebok surprisingly. I normally prefer Nike or Under Armour, but the Reebok were the most comfy. I'm starting to think that they are unlucky because we lost our game when I wore, them. Ha ha, not really but still. I hope that everyone else has a better May than we have had. As you might have seen on previous posts, my friend's little 9 year old brother passed away. Today was the funeral, so please have them in your thoughts and prayers. We need to be thankful for our siblings, no matter how annoying they are. Sunday will be very busy, because we are going to see my Dad's mom for Mothers Day.

Have a Wonderful Weekend and Mothers Day!!
