it's Tuesday and I'm just sitting here!

Hi all,
I must be iether very bored or must have too much time on my hands or both because I love thinking up entertaining subject lines! OK OK, I'm done.

Yesterday, Jacki told me about the famous BrailleNote file called 8sinks. It's this Scottish drinking song and is freaking hillarious! I will play it for some people this weekend, you know who you are!

Last night, I did Reader's Theater with Ms. Corso who is mine andd Aubree's French teacher. We had four plays to chose from. The first three Aubree and I weren't impressed with simply because they are desinged forr younger readers and last time I checked, I am an older reader thank you very much!

The fourth play, however, was about the trial of Socrates which is the one we all voted on. I can't wait because I want to be Anthipe!

That's about it folks! More to come soon!

I'm too Lazy to think of a Subject Line!

Hi all,
I officially have 3 followers and two friends on here! Thanks everyone who take an interest in my blog!

This morning was wierd because Valdine woke everyone up an hour early and didn't make us breakfast. We also noticed she was slurring her words and that she didn't sound like her usual self. Jacki thought she was playing a rather elaborate joke until she made one of the other girls, Katie go a half hour early to school. So Ms. Bonnie C. who I work with in the coffee shop and who comes to the cottage in the morning called an ambulance and the parimetics took Valdine to the hospital. The Chapman girls had aquick meeting with DR. Stenehjem about it. So when I say my morning started off with a bang, you know why.

So that's about all the excitement for one post, don't you think? The only other thing I have to say is that the FOTR Prologue, "Concerning Hobbits and Other Such Matters" is the longest prologue I've ever read!

Bye and thanks for reading,

Weekend, Here I Come!

Hi all,
You guessed, it is the weekend and I'm very happy to go home.

On the weekend of Oct. 30, Aubree is coming home with me for a wrock concert hosted by HPANW, featuring the Whomping Willows and some great food cooked by fellow HP fans! Should be fun!

We also got two of our stories planned and decided to do a series with our first story, Captured Hearts called the Children of Myth series. It will have three books and will feature a slew of characters from IC, LOTR and of course, WSSB! Should be loads of fun to write! More updates to come soon!

That's about all folks! See you next week!

What I've been up to!

Hi all,
I really don't know what to write today. I added the new story link, so check it out!

Today is the dedication of the new statues outside Erwin and the ice cream social!! I really want ice cream and I haven't really checked out the statues yet so this will be fun!

Now, I will do a recommendation of a fic I really like:

Author: anolinde
Title: The Rohan Pride Trilogy
Rateing: M
author link:
http://fanfiction.net/~anolinde
It's beautifully written, with a bluntness that brings out the best of the story.

I'm in the process of doing an audio drama of this series with the help of my friends. It's still in planning stages and needs people!

Well, that's about it for now!

Its blogger time!

Hi all!
Lots of things this time around. Aubree and I have vowed to go see LOTR the musical when it comes close enough. In other words, when it comes within driving distance. We have revamped our original story so it has more of a plot. You can find it at
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5378074/1/Captured_Hearts


Also, we have early release today for IEP planning and tomorrow for the ice cream social! Yay ice cream! I have been really happy at WSSB this year and I feel that it will be the best year yet, maybe even ever.

OK, I don't really have anything else new to report. Next time maybe I'll give another fanfic recommendation, how does that sound?

Weekend, Yay!

Hi all,
The weekend is upon us! Sorry, been reading a little too much LOTR fanfiction!
I have picked my topic for my senior paper:
The History of Audio Production and how to produce a CD
I am pretty excited about this because it's about something I love to do.
I'm also doing a GOALS assignment on advocacy which involves researching my various conditions. That should prove to be at least somewhat interesting...
I am enjoying hanging out with Sara and Jacki. It's been fun because Sara is a major theater freak like me and Jacki is just plain funny and cool to talk to!
I can't wait for Aubree to come back on Sunday because she is going to flip when I tell her what music I've downloaded.
I think that's about it, so I'll keep yall posted in the coming weeks!
Bye and thanks for reading,
Abby

First Week News!

Hi all,
Just wanted to update you on the happenings of my first week at WSSB!
I've been slowly getting into the swing of things. Here are the highlights of my schedule:
I work at the cofee shop, so therefor my parents have been calling me "Abby the Barista" Not that it's annoying, but I just think it's a little stupid.
I have GOALS with Ms. Langley which is, as far as I can tell, going to be at least entertaining...
I also have math with "Teacher in a box" as Tyler has dubbed our new teacher Ms. Lowell.
In other news, Sara Cadwell from YES II is at school this year and I am making it my goal to make her feel welcome. It might be futile since she is homesick quite a lot, but I'm at least trying. That's all I can really do anyway.
Aubree is supposedly coming next week and I'm very eager to continue on our story!
I don't have anything else to report I'm afraid other than I'm finally reading the LOTR books! More on that later.
Bye and thanks for reading,
Abby

Wow!

Hi all,
I really needed to update this thing!
First of all, I have had one of the most eventfull summers of my life!
I will list the most important things that have happened to me this summer!
Warning, this won't be in chronilogical order!
a. I went to YES for the second time and had loads of fun. My top three memories are going to the HP Alliance live podcast, spending five hours making cauldron cakes for said podcast which included going to Safeway and almost not making it back on account of the cart wheel kept falling off! But they got eaten by a bunch of very enthusiastic HP fans so this was worth it! The best part of all of this was that all the friends I got to go loved it! Enough to devote the whole car ride back for talk about how we’re going to Leaky Con 2011 and selling our creations! The third and final memory is Orcas Island! It was loads of fun the second time cause I was in a kayak with Robert who wanted to spontaneously go on kelp chases! We got rained on. Like Michigan rained on which is a huge thunderstorm! Everyone’s, including my stuff got soaked!
b. The next big thing I did this summer was during YES so I had to leave for ten days. That thing is DO-IT, Disabilities, Opportunities, Internetworking, Technology through the UW. I am writing on the laptop they gave me along with an embosser, scanner and printer! I met many new friends there and look forward to coming back next year! The best part was some of us decided to have a party in my room, fun times!
c. The last thing I did was finally, after three years, go back to Michigan with my dad and see my Grandpa and some friends. I loved being back, but by the end of my trip, I was so glad to be home again.\
So, just thought I'd update yall on what's going on!
More to come soon, I promise!
Bye and thanks for reading,
Abby
