Off the Graph Theatre

Hey everyone, I'm back home from the Bible Bee (sigh...). It's good to be back though. Today I went back to school. I thought I'd share with you something we're learning about in Bible class.

We are talking about the books of 1&2 Samuel. When Mr. Hamilton, our teacher was talking about the crowning of King Saul, remembered a video my church made last year when we were talking about these same books. I found it quite hilarious, so I thought I would share it with you....

Countdown....

5 Days... 124 hours...7451 minutes...447090 seconds...lots of homework...1100 review verses until..... THE NATIONAL BIBLE BEE!!!!!

Everything is building to a climax, three hundred students nationwide are intensely reviewing God's Word, and... my brain is fried.

I'm sooo excited!

Can You Believe it?

Stores always put up seasonal stuff too early. Just the other day, I was in Target and they have school supplies already. It's not time for summer to end! I haven't even been to camp yet!
At least they haven't put up the Christmas stuff yet.....

I'm Done!!!!!

Yes, finally. I thought I was done with the school year at the beginning of this month, when I finished my regular schoolwork, but then I had to finish stuff for AWANA and homeschool co-op. I also had Rosetta Stone and a geography class. Finally, I did a speech about Chinese language at a culture symposium. I just finished that tonight, and now I'm DONE with 8th grade!!!!!

oh wait, that means I'm in High school........

Anyway, hopefully I'll be able to blog and work on my book more this summer.

8 projects

This week at school, I had 8 projects. Unfortunately, my teacher is coming over on Thursday, so I had to finish all 8 papers by then. I just got them finished today. I feel very victorious!!

Chinese

I was just doing Rosetta Stone Chinese. I was learning how to say the names of the countries ( I think....) I really like doing Rosetta Stone, but it's confusing because there is no English involved, it's only pictures and Chinese. I only have a little bit of time left to do it, though, because I do it through my school which is closing down on the 8th.
