Today was VIDEO DAY!

Hannah and I had a great start to our morning because we were on time for the first time ever! It was pretty amazing! haha

I have also decided to video tape our school days and then at the end of the year we will have all of these funny videos. At least, thats what I am hoping will happen!

SO once Hannah and I got to school, we had morning meeting. Our whip today was, "if a tattoo artist came to school, what would you get for a tattoo?" I of course said that I would get BREATHE written on the inside of my wrist.

After morning meeting, we started flvs. I worked on algebra all morning and brain break came quickly. We played sharks and minnow's and the high schoolers chose to play a relay race, which was fun. Then we had our PBL time. Today the high schoolers (minus Jordin) decided that we are going to present our hybrid car project tomorrow! Eek! So we came up a with a format and practiced some. It will be a really informal discussion based on the process of PBL. When we were done with that Kylie and I worked on our civil war project until lunch time. At lunch, I uploaded my morning videos onto my computer and got my video camera ready for kickball!

In kickball, we have decided to go back to our original teams... which I was pretty happy about. We were dominating at first, 5 - 0 and then.... disaster struck, we lost the game 5 - 6. It was such a dissapointment. But I guess we just win some and lose some.

After kickball, the school got together to come up with a solution for our noise problem during music. We came up with some great ideas. Then we had music! Music was fun, we practiced "TNT" and "Gives You Hell." Oh and Nathan broke a bass string during it which was a feat in itself. haha

After music, Mira and I worked on my algebra project, where I had to create a pendulum. It was fun. And now I am here typing this.

CHRISTMAS LIGHT UPDATE: The christmas men have now gotten a crane and have lifted themselves up onto it to cover the tops of the trees, I am extremely excited about this! Hopefully soon they will be done. Oh and last night they were on for a little while, which was beautiful. I can't wait for the christmas tree to get here!
