Oh, god, how my foot hurts!!
Today at Tae-Kwon-Do, everybody, well all the boys at least were grouchy. I guess cause our school is making us go spread the word of their "lots of extracurriculars", and we are supposed to go do Tae-Kwon-Do come May 22nd. Now it wouldn't be too bad if we only had to show off our moves and such, but we have to use boards too, to show how hard and fast we kick. BUT, we have to pay for the boards ourselves. Urgh!! And that's about 200NT, or 6.5US DOLLARS!! Our coach says there might be left over money to buy drinks, but who wants to buy a 200 dollar drink when you can get them for as least as 10 dollars!
I got the info on going day before yesterday. I ran into our vice prez of the club. He told me about it, oh boy, before only 4 were going. Me NOT included, though I am 3rd rank. ANYWAY, the school signed us up for all of us. I want to KILL our school. Probably get Mimi and Santa to help. The first is familiar with guns, though fake, and the second knows about most of the martial arts. So, we are now training for it.
AND, today, our prez was looking very angry. With every round that we went by, his face got more and more "frowny", though I did accidentally kick his arms 2 times in a row...
but that was because he held it too... low?
Anyway, when we got to one move, he shook the board as we kicked, so now all of us have feet that hurt so MUCH! Even the vice prez held it better!!!
Santa is happy that we have a "show", today at recess, we got into a small "fight". Now I have nail marks on me!!
But, strangely, it's all just play...

My friends!!

Hey, I promised all a small tab on my friends, I think, so...
I have a small group of BFFs in our class, which is HUGE! Like 55 people! I know, what were they thinking?? I know, they weren't!! Ha!
Ok, first off...
Santa,
small, slight, holy terror, and whose bark is ALWAYS worse than her bite, but a GREAT friend to have.
Mimi.
Nice to everybody, and I mean even those who don't deserve it at all!!
Goes home same way as me, so we walk back together.
Minny.
Very stingy with her stuff, but impossible to be mad at.
Vicky.
Nice, has a way of talking that so does not fit her looks. VERY FUNNY!!
Grace.
Near-sighted but refuses to get glasses. A problem, as she sits in the back and I always have to lend her my notes!! Still...oh, yeah, and she's a BL fan. If you like that, I'll tell her to get back to you.
Others are all nice and friends with me, but not too close, and won't be a big part fo my blogs.
Yes, I know you're wondering, why do I need to know about your friends?????????
That is why. I'll be posting a lot with them in them. Hey, that's cool! You know... them in them.
That is now my personal quote. Them in them. HA!!

Oh, and today was like...boring and so very wet!
We won 2nd place in the bible skit and our class had to yell and screech! My eardrums are so...
Also, cause it rained, our Mt. Everest got slashed to pieces, also our flag. and anything that was made of paper. And we got very very wet!! My poor feet are bloated from the water soaking them and my nose is scarred for life by the foot odors that the majority of the class felt the need to show off, aka take of their shoes and socks and air their feet!! I am so sick of that smell!

My stupid day!

Hey, all!
You know, today was a 50-50 chance of rain in Taiwan.
So I was deliberating between bringing or not bringing my Tae-Kwon-Do outfit.
I brought it, cause our Coach says that if we don't bring it, we'll have to do two laps. 300 meters a lap.
Then I DID NOT DO TAE-KWON-DO! I had stomach cramps and cause we only have 3 girls in the club, one other decided to stay with me. The other fought her way through bravely. I saw her kick very HARD at the vice president of our club!!
I spent the whole class figuring out a math problem. It was so hard! I'm going to do it again, later. My pride won't stand the blow. But on the web, it says that even some math teachers have problems solving it!! And I'm just an 8th grader!!
My friends ditched volleyball and sat with me, trying but with no great improvement. Santa, my friend, who calls herself Satan, who has horrible English and once accidentally spelled her name wrong due to the vocab that we were studying had Santa in it. So, I use Santa to call her. She glares at you, but I don't mind. It's far easier than calling her by her name. She hears Santa especially quick.
And she said that she solved it twice. My pride took a blow, as her math is worse than me. But, the first time she got the plus and minus signs wrong, second, the whole answer was off.
The question was given by one of our classmate, who goes to cram school, and whose teacher said will give them 100NT, to the one who solved it.
AND I didn't use my heavy duty outfit at all, grrrr... my bad!!
But I did get to play basketball with my friends, who play very good and who, when we play, play bloody murder. I think I contribute to this a LOT!

Next, a small expert on Santa AND MY OTHER FRIENDS!

My First Day!
