Goal: Lesson 170 and all tests/quizzes complete (75)

Status: Goal reached!!!

Thursday, June 7th, 2007 (74)

Hello! Again, sorry for the long no-entries time. Been working really hard on school. Since the last time we spoke, me and my sister have gotten a system from my mom that lets us do as many lessons in a day that we can fit in. That way, we can finish earlier in the year. I should finish videos up by the end of June. Hopefully all the tests and quizzes don't take too long after that. I am officially done once I get all that done. :) It's a lot of work ahead of me, but I really want to get it done. I hate when all my friends are out swimming, having parties, hanging out, playing outside, etc. while I sit in my room and work on school. I'm working really hard so I can possibly do all that stuff with them. And even better, my mom and dad made it so that when I get halfway done with school from now till lesson 170, I get some of the new Star Wars stamps that just came out. I can't wait to get them. They look really cool! Also, when I finish up all my lessons, homework, and tests and quizzes, I get a brand new TV! :) :) :) I can't wait to get it because the one I have doesn't accept PS2, Gamecube, etc. because the cable inputs are bad. I'll finally be able to play them in my room! And finally, if I beat my sister in finishing school (videos, homework, and test/quizzes) there is a really big prize. I don't know what it is yet, but hopefully I get it. I'd better get to work if I want to win it.

Keep looking for that secret page!!! Oh, and this is going to be my last entry till I finish up school. It's difficult to remember to keep posting in my news when I'm working on school. Talk to you all when school's up!!!

Hello! Nothing much new today. Just trying to get working really hard to get my school stuff done so I can play later today. So far, instead of the usual lesson for today, I got two lessons done. I couldn't sleep last night, so I decided to work on my lesson. I got it finished and everything, so I could work on another lesson today. I just finished that one, so, now I have to finish homework, some tests and quizzes, and then video game time!!! (or airsoft).

Oh, last night, I asked my dad if I can stay up to work on my lesson since I couldn't fall asleep, and he said yes, but only while he's reloading his pistol (I got a pistol with the gun and he uses it most of the time). I thought he was serious at first, so I grabbed all the blankets I had in my room and set them up around me so if he barged in and shot me, I would hit the blankets, not me. Then, I realized that it is too hard to have to hold the blankets up, and that they don't give me enough protection. So, I took the top mattress off of my bed and set it up behind my chair. Then, I realized that I probably wouldn't be able to get to my gun in time if he charged in, so, I set up some string and blankets and stuff to put my gun on. I tied the string to the trigger (and I made sure the safety was off) and tied it to my chair so that if he came in, all I had to do was turn my chair. Then, after that, I wondered, "What if anyone else came in my room? They might freak out at a BB gun facing them." So, I put up my calculator in front of the shotgun and tied a string around it too so that if he came in, all I had to do was pull the calculator down and turn my chair and it would fire right at him. I have the pics of the end result after all that work in my pics, but I could put them on here also. Sorry they are so dark. I didn't have good lighting when I took them. Here they are:

Here's the shotgun all set and ready to go. Can you make out the string attaching to the calculator and to the trigger?

Here's what it would look like coming into my room. My bed is set up behind my chair and the gun is facing perfectly aligned to the door. Can you see the calculator on the pile of blankets? The gun is directly behind it ready to fire.

Alright, that's all the time I have for now. I'll talk to you all later. Keep trying to find that secret page!!!

Hello! How are you all doing? I only have one thing new today. I got my PS2 controller! It's wireless and really cool because I don't have to worry about cords getting tangled up and I don't have to worry about the controller not being able to reach my seat any more. Here's a pic of it:

I can't wait to play with it. Unfortunately, I have to finish up my school stuff for today before I can play. :( I hope I can get it all done soon.

Alright, better get going. Lots to do to be able to play later.

Hey all! Sorry I haven't written in a while...AGAIN. School getting to that point where it is starting to get difficult...AGAIN! How is everyone? I'm doing great! Sorry I forgot to add this to my news when it happened, but two days ago, I got an airsoft gun (two of them actually)! I've always been playing with the neighborhood kids and I've always had to use one or two of their pistols (which wasn't all that great seeing as I got the lowest of the guns) while they used shotguns and automatics. Now, I can actually compete with them. Me and my neighbor are planning on challenging them today without them knowing that I have a shotgun. They're gonna get a big surprise when I tag them from a distance. :) It's going to be so fun!

Also, even more good news! I found out recently that me, my mom, and my sister might be flying up to PA this summer! I haven't flown since I was just a few years old! I've only flown on a plane twice in my life. Once on a commercial airline when I was only a few years old, and another time when my dad test piloted a private plane (not the fancy private jets, just the small little planes). That's all I've ever been flying, in my life! Hopefully we can go up there in a plane. The ten hour drive is really bothering my parents' backs. Then, when we come back down, our grandparents are going to be driving us down and may stay a while! :)

No news from anyone about finding my secret page. Keep trying!!!

Alright, I better get back to school work if I want to have time to play airsoft later. Talk to you all soon! Wish me luck getting this stuff done. I have so much. :( :( :(

P.S. It is around 11:30 PM and I just found out that I definitely am flying up to PA this summer. :) :) :)

Hello. How's everyone going? Nothing much for me. Just working on school as I do everyday. Hopefully this week goes by quickly. I know that we just got through a weekend, but I still can't wait for next weekend. Got a lot of stuff to do this week though. I have a BUNCH of quizzes and a few tests to get done. Hopefully I can find time this week to get all of those done. I really need to get them done. They are really starting to build up. Wish me luck getting them done.

Alright, I better sign out. I am behind today in watching my videos and I have a lot to do today. Talk to you all later.

Hello. How are you all doing? I'm doing alright. Just working on school as usual. Nothing new. Oh, I went to a Youth Group on Wednesday. That was pretty cool. Me and my sister met three people there, but we forgot their names (we're horrible with remembering names when we meet new people). Hopefully we find out their names next time we go. They're all pretty nice and like to talk a LOT.

Here's the info: It can be on any page on my website; it's a hyperlink; it's very small font. So far, only one finder of my secret page. But that's only because he emailed me. If you want a secret hint, you have to either email me, or contact me with your email address included. I can't post it on my news to tell you because that would give it away to everyone else.

Alright, gotta go. Still working on school. Talk to you all later.

Hey again! Sorry I haven't written in my news, again. I've been really busy with schoolwork as usual. I FINALLY got all my exams done!!! That's a big relief, but now, school is loading me with a bunch more tests and quizzes. I already have two tests, and 1..2..3, 5 quizzes. It's crazy! No time to relax yet. I still have to keep working all the way through August. :( That's too long for me.

Alright, involving the secret page, here is the info: It can be on any page on my website; it's a hyperlink; it's very small font. You can also contact me for another hint, but if you do, include your full email address (ex: joeyrocks@yahoo.com) with it so that I can give you the hint.

Gotta go. Talk to you all later.

Hey all! How's it going? I know that I haven't written in a while. Sorry about that. I've been cracking down on school work and am really trying to get all my exams done and all my tests and quizzes too. So far I have gotten three exams done and I am currently trying to get the tests and quizzes they give me everyday done so that I will be able to work on exams. But the tests and quizzes everyday take SOOOOO long to finish that I don't have time to take exams. I only got three done that one day because it was the weekend and I didn't have school (which, I wish we could hurry up and get our exams done so that we can work on the weekend so that we finish a little bit earlier).

I'm going to ask again, ARE ANY OF YOU LOOKING FOR MY SECRET PAGE!?! Please let me know if you are. I just want to know that someone is looking for it. I promise I'll give you another hint along with this -- It can be on any page on my website; it's a hyperlink; it's very small font. Please continue to look if you already are, but please let me know that you are looking. I'm going to be putting the hints that I just put on every entry so that whenever you look at my news, you don't have to hunt down the exact day I put that one entry including the hints.

Well, better get back to school.

Hey! How is everyone? Me? Hard at work finishing up some tests. After I finish all the regular tests, I have to work on my semester exams. I hope that I can get these done pretty fast. I really want to get out of this constant rushing and worrying everyday. I'm getting VERY annoyed with them. I also want to get rid of them because I know that they are causing me a lot of stress. I don't want to have that for long, because that will REALLY mess me up.

Anyway, enough about my problems. How are you all doing? Anyone found my secret page yet? If you are at least looking for it, could you email me letting me know you are. I'll give anyone who emails me a little hint at its location.

Well, better get ready to hit the sack. Night!

Hey! Wow! I haven't written in my news for a long time now. There's not much new since I last entered. Just working on school still, I'm down to only three tests, which is much better than my last number. The only problem is that it is semester (mid-term) exam time for me. Great! More tests to worry about! The only other thing is that yesterday I got a cool new phone. It's a Motorola Razor!!! It has a lot of cool graphics and ring tones and everything. I REALLY like it! Do any of you have Razor's?

Just wanted to let you all know that there was never a secret page in the first place. I just wanted to make you work hard for nothing...APRIL FOOLS!!! I'm just kidding. There is still a secret page. I haven't gotten any emails from anyone. Does that mean that you're still looking? Keep trying. It is extremely hard to find! Don't give up!

That's about it for my news. Better get back to studying and finishing up all these tests.

Hey! Sorry I haven't entered recently. Just been working on a secret page, which you have probably seen the information about it on my home page, and just trying to get caught up in school. This is so hard to get caught up when every time you get some done, the school gives you either an equal or more than the number of quizzes you worked so hard to finish. I wish they would stop with all these tests and quizzes for a while. It would really help me out. Anyways, how are you all doing? Anything new going on? Anything exciting?

Don't forget to look for my secret page! It actually has two prizes. But I'm not telling what. :D You'll just have to look to find out. Here's the info I'll give you: It can be on any page on my website; it's a hyperlink; it's very small font. Good luck!

Well, better get back to work on school. Catch up with you all later.

Hey! Phew! That was a lot of work. This week, I've been working hard on getting my Star Wars page up and running, adding the Star Wars quiz and survey, editing my Lego page, and fixing ALL of my pages to link to my Star Wars pages and edit the Lego/Bionicle page to the Lego page. That's a lot of pages! I never realized how many I have.

Anyways, how have you all been? Anything new? I'd REALLY like to hear from you. If you are reading this, why won't you contact me?

For the Lego Super Hero contest, I've decided on a date for it to end. July 17th, 2007 is the end date for the contest. I think that it's a pretty good end date seeing as there's not many people who are on here. Remember, there's a really good prize. It's extremely funny! (No, it's not the Evangelism Linebacker video)

Well, better get going. Talk to you all later! (I mine as well just say "Talk to none of you later!")

Hey! Another school day. Nothing much to do. I have so many tests and quizzes coming up, I almost don't know what to do. Hopefully I can get them all done.

Alex, you haven't replied back yet. Did you get my emails? Oh, and since you want me to add you so bad (even though I can talk to you on IM) hello Chad! What happened? You were on IM and you tried to talk to me, then you won't reply.

Well, better get back to work. Talk to you all later.

Monday, March 5th, 2007 (61)

Hey! How has everyone been? Anything new or exciting going on? Not really for me. Just working on school...again. Man, just about every day there is a quiz or test in one or more of my classes (with a few *hallelujah chorus* exceptions). Will they ever stop!?! I can't wait till next year when we switch home school programs. I've heard it's supposed to be much easier.

Sorry about the last entry. I was talking to my cousin, and didn't have a lot of time, so I just typed the message I wanted to tell him and saved it.

Alex, I sent two emails to Grandma like you wanted me to. What happened? You kept calling (on the wrong phone might I add) saying that you wanted me to email you. Oh, BTW, you can't call me from Grandma and Grandpa's phone. You have to call me from Grandma's cell (which, can you get the number for me so I know it's you when you call) or your mom's cell. It racks up minutes when you call from Grandma and Grandpa's. And also, can you tone it down a bit on the calling me? You're calling me everyday now. Don't get me wrong, I love talking to you but I do have a lot of school and tests and quizzes I have to get done. I think that it would be best to call me on the weekends when I'm not doing anything. If I don't answer on the weekend, just email me or contact me and I'll probably get the email relatively quickly and call you. Sorry if I'm being a little harsh.

Well, better finish up a few things before bed. Talk to you all later.
