awwwh well try to get used to it.. I jumped over that hurdle to some extent.. and it can be really enjoyable after you do. I mean in the end it's your choice but that's my opinion anyways. Like sing in the car or something, idk.. Does any of the rest of your family sing or do they all do instrumentals?
Oh, I sing in the car all the time, and at home, where I know they all have heard me sing.
And mum plays piano and guitar and sings, Da plays the stand of bass and sings, and my bro sometimes sings. :) And he used to play the trumpet.
Ohhh haha nice my mom plays piano and my dad plays guitar and sings. My dad used to be in bands in the 80s ^^ My brother plays sax and my sister and I sing. (: We would make a band if our family actually did stuff together but it's more of just like a lost dream.
Oh (: sweet ^_^
hmmm I have a few songs recorded on my phone that my choir did but I can't find any online : o uhhhmm.. hm.. yah you can't hear any of the words on some of these from other people xD uhhh
I'm doing pretty good. (: Listening to ... uhh.. here's the link xD Click click : 3 I'm jealous of my friend Acob for all of his sweets :drool: but then who wouldn't be? xDD heheh yah Idk. Not much going on. How bout for you?
Ohh hahahah yeah XD I know that lol. : 3 cats are so funny. My cat just had a new kitten x3 it's so adorable! Everybody keeps on changing his name though : o
Oh god I'm still not done I'm going to fail I'm going to fail
T__T
I already have a B which is bad enough...
I didn't realize I'd needed so many direct quotes, I thought it was only five and I'm fresh out of quotes!
Oh, how I pity Steinbeck. I've grown to despise his Of Mice and Men and much more. :cry:
... Stress relieving kitty talk!!
When my kittens were born, they were all roughly the same colour and their markings were identical (it was crazy) except for one kitten had a white tipped tail (we named it snowball)... And the darkest coloured kitten was a reaaaal thug, a bully kitten. XD
Soo, we named it thug. =u= When people started claiming them, it was the only one left over... o-o So we had to re name her lucy so people didn't think our cat was in the mafia hehe
We found out later that all six of them were females, which is exceedingly strange
It was like they were clones but as they were born the ink started running out.. Like my cat was a living printer, but printing out living photocopies O_O
Oh I read that book and had a direct quotes thing. What is the writing prompt?
Edit: rofl that's a funny way to put it XD hahahah... photocopy kittens x3
Precious only had one kitten.. I think she mighta miscarriaged the rest because my brother was too rough with her .-. We didn't know she was pregnant until 2 days before she had the kitten -____-""" but she's so small and she always acts just a tad bit weird and lovey plus she's rarely outside and we'd never seen a pregnant cat before. But yah. She had the kitty right after that and it was only 1. It looks soooo much like his mom except a little bit fatter because he has all the milk to himself XD

It's a defense paper.. /shudders
Writing as an english teacher in defense of the book to the school board who wants to ban the book
requirements
1 An assesment of the main themese from the book with a brief analysis of the book and the author's style
2 A relevance statement that reflects on why the themes are important for students to explore in our world and what new or important perspective the novel offers to students' exploration
3 a personal assesment of the validity of the novelist's perspective supported with evidence from your own experiences and knowledge
4 at least three direct quotes for support
I have the first bit down, but 'analysis' and 'relevance statement' make me go O_O
edit/
aww! T.T That's sad.. but the kitty sounds cute >u>
I'm also doing a write up on a painting I did for the other half of the assignment, which also takes unexpected quotes
Well the theme gets you to think about people's dreams and that every one has one even if they're different.. And let's see.. there was stuff about work ethics and the guy who kept on getting irritated at everything, picking fights and whatnot, Curly his name is right? Well there's anger in the world too but when you think about how the characters reacted to each other about that and his wife.. she was lonely and everything. She didn't plan for her life to be like that. Oh and there was the black guy in the.... uhh.. stable? There was discrimination there too. So yah they talk funny in this book but people are people. There is going to be unfairness but you gotta realize that everyone has their own perspective and that being rude to other people for their differences maybe isn't the best choice.
>3< Thank you for being specific.. I was thinking some of those things, but I swear. I'm just so nervous right now, Ihave to go to sleep and I'm not going to finish it. </3 I have themes written down, and I know why it's important
I also know that I should explain that Steinbeck doesn't use 'foul language' just to be obscene and it makes his characters have depth, making his lessons sink in that much deeper
/headdesk GRRR.. I hope the computers at school work tomorrow.
BAH
I'd forgotten that it was the FIRST CLASS I had in the morning.. >A<
I tried to wake up at five in the morning to type it up then, but.. gawd, too early. T_T I ended up sleeping until nearly seven.. which is when I have to leave, lol.
Anyways.. The teacher was very nice, I have until tomorrow to hand it in ;__; Yay<3
But.. I just remembered right now that I have other things to do, too. oAo I have history, maths, japanese homework... All due on a friday, how unlucky
._. At least I don't have any tests
Aggh!! Do you need any help with you Japanese? Possibly a bit of math but I'm not sure what level you're in. It's good that your teacher was considerate. You won't have as bad a grade then. But yah can i help you? : o
