Warning

I'm going to start putting pictures of my book up on my blog. Not starting today. Just a heads up. It'll be coming in chapters. Chapter by chapter by chapter. :D

Cut

I scraped my elbow pretty bad while jumping off of a swing at the park near the Rec. We didn't have a bandage and we were going to the library. I didn't want to get blood on the books so I took a wet-wipe and a hair elastic and wrapped it around the bleeding part. I couldn't cover it all I mean it was all up my arm. My, I had sooo many strange looks! It was almost hilarious! Although since it was on my elbow the hair elastic was cutting off my circulation so I had to pull it quite a bit. Now two days later it is mostly all healed except the part that was bleeding. That part is now a scab that keeps breaking because I move my arm. Soo other than that it's actually kinda funny to think about! :D

School

School is harder online, but I'm getting used to it. It's kinda hard though not having the teacher to ask when you have a question. Apparently the online school  I'm doing is new to Utah. I think the only reason why I'm still doing it is because we get field trips and when we have a live lesson session we can talk to others at my school. For me it is getting easier, and I'm now finishing faster. My favorite thing is my Shakespeare class which is not part of my online, but a class for home-schoolers in my area. Every Thursday we get together talk about what we read, have two presentations,  and do some activities. Eventually we'll have rehearsals and put on a play! Yeah! It's really fun, for me at least. So I guess you could say that I don't completely hate home-school anymore, the extra things are really fun! :D

My Pictures

I was very happy with these pictures, but they look better in real life. Because some of the colors you can't see when we took the pictures. :D

Syrup

Recipe
1cup brown sugar
1cup white sugar
1cup water
Stir, then let boil.
We were making pancakes for lunch and Kate was set to make the syrup.  I come in the living-room from having to change because Joshua has made it his place to declare me "Miss Spit-Up-Rag", and I smell something like burning sugar, I rush into the kitchen and check the syrup, I find burning sugar, creating smoke all over the room. I move the pan off the stove and stir the sugar frantically  hoping to help stop the burning sugar. Then mom came in and moved the pan into the sink. While washing the pan Kate explained that she hadn't head mom explain about the 1cup of water part. I thought it was pretty funny that one of the most important parts was the one she forgot! I thought she'd realize that you don't boil sugar. Oh well. It was pretty funny.

Fastest Kitten Give-Away Known to Man Kind!

Sunday our kittens were old enough to go so the three put on reserve we gave away that day. But our Aunt Amy and Uncle Seth had to give the two kittens they had to give them back, because Aunt Amy had a bad allergic reaction and had to give them back.  So all we had given so away so far was Blizzard. But the real sale started on Monday we put up an add on KSL, and about thirty minutes later we had some people call and then came about thirty minutes later to pick up two boy kittens.  They chose out the two whitest Fluffball and Pipstick, and they told us about why we had Siamese looking boy cats when Twix mated with a grey male cat. Apparently the wife is in vet-tech.  Then not too long later another lady called about the kittens she came and took Rachel. And then about twelve hours after we put up the add more people came and took Dusty. Then we had to put as that the kittens were SOLD so we wouldn't get any more calls since we had already had two extras. It was the fastest I'd ever known kittens to be sold.

That is a picture we put on the add. (The kittens would not stay together for more than two seconds) It contains Dusty(The darkest of the boys), Fluffball(the shortest haired boy), Pipstick (The whitest), and Rachel(The only girl, shortest haired, and the only grey one)

Yellow

We were doing shapes and colors with Joseph when we got to colors. We showed Joseph the color Red  he said, "wed"
 Blue. "bue"
Orange. "orang"
Purple. "Yellow"
" No Joey it's purple. Say Purple"
"Yellow"
"Nope"
"Yellow" 
"Purple"
"Yellow"
"No!"
"Pappul"
Pink. "Yellow"
"Nope"
"Yellow"
"Pink"
"Yellow"
"No!"
"Pink"
"Yeah" Go over again. For each one including black he says yellow. We go until he get's it. Which took quite a while.

Shopping for Fathers Day

So we had just gone to Wheeler Farms with my friend Bonnie and were all heading to get ice cream. Then we got to the Sugar House area and Mom remembered that we needed to get some copics for Fathers Day. So she pulled up to a parking lot and told me and Kate to run in with her debit card to go buy dad 4 copic markers. Of course we wanted to show Bonnie the art store we go to. So when me, Kate, and Bonnie walked in she was amazed at how much art supplies there was. Kate asked a worker if we could see the copics. He led us over and showed us and so we picked out four and went to the cash register. When we got there we handed them to the lady, she wrung them up and then said that it'd be $24. We handed her  mom's debit card. She turned around to her co workers and asked, "Do we ID little girls?"
"What?" said  one of the two co-workers
"Do we ID little girls using a credit card?" she asked again.
"Debit" I said.
The co-workers stared in utter silence at us until one.... Shrugged his shoulders.
"Just put it under Diane Robertson," Kate said interrupting the silence. 
"Do you have the pin?" the lady inquired.
" Yes I do," I said.
We finished paying and walked out the with confused and suspicious stares following us.
                                            TRUE STORY!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Party

So I went to my friend Stephenie's  birthday party the plan was to go to her house for dinner and then go to Raging Waters and go swimming. So when I got there I was the second person and my friend gave us a tour of her house until people arrived. When at least almost everybody was there we went outside and started eating. Dinner was orange soda, pizza, jelly beans, and pretzels. I took a slice of the pizza so I wasn't rude. Almost immediately after we had started everyone arrive who were for sure coming. There were six of us: me, Stephanie, Kylie, Emily, Kate, and Maddie. While eating we had some odd conversations, but what do you expect when all of us are very random gals. She said you don't have to bring a gift. And of course, we ALL DID. It was getting chilly out and the sky was a deep gray. All of us were at least kinda worried about if we really would go swimming. When we all had finished Stephenie's mom brought out the presents. None were huge but all were small expensive or not. When she pulled out mine she showed everyone my doodles. My face fell in my hands. She did think they were good. Although I didn't. Then she opened the card. I think she liked it, but she was ecstatic that she got money so she could buy what she wanted. When she had finished opening they brought out the cheesecake with 8 candles although it was 5 candles short. We lit them were singing happy birthday when a wind blew them out, but they blazed back up. When she blew them out the parents were wondering why they didn't light back up. Apparently they were those trick candles. I think it was just too windy outside. After that we split up into two cars and headed to Raging Waters. I was in a car with Stephanie's mom, Emily, Kate and myself. We talked and played the alphabet game. When we got to Raging waters we stopped before going in. Stephanie's parents talked about if it were too cold. And of course it was so we decided to go to the Classic Fun Center. It took about 40 min. to get to Layton from SLC. When we got to the Classic Fun Center since it was for a birthday party we got to get a special room to just party in. Stephanie's mom got us some lemonade and pixie-sticks. For and hour we just danced, drank soda, sang, ate, and we partied. But during the first 15-30min. some boys kept bugging us. After an hour of partying and Kylie telling the annoying unknown boys that she hates them, them asking why her saying she just does, partying, more partying, etc. We went to play laser tag. We were doing teams. Me and Stephanie were on opposite teams and accidentally banged into each other. During that her gun hit my cheek and still it hurts when I talk, smile, frown, etc. After that I was at her back. So just when she was about to shoot somebody her gun wouldn't work,and apparently she'd been shot.. That was all my revenge. After a fun game of laser tag where my team won (YES!!) we went back to the room to party some more. There we found that somebody had been in, drunken the Root Beer, messed with our stuff and left the door open. We were upset! But we decided to try and shrug it off, so we partied some more. :) Soon we were all tired out and decided to do some games. So we got some tokens, and played some games. Two games cheated me so I told the a person who worked there about it he went over fixed it but had to pull out some tickets in order to. Then the machine finally gave me my tickets, and then he gave me the extras. I was happy going up to claim my prize(s). I got a friendship necklace and a popper thing, and then let Stephanie pick one. She picked the popper thing. Finally it was time to go home. We got in the same cars and they drove us home. On finding my house we got lost for about 5min.and then we found our way again. When I got home I said goodbye. They left and I was happy again. And it was about 9:30. It was very fun!  

Doodling Problems

My doodling problems are getting worse, and I don't know what to do. Even my teachers could tell. If I forgot my name on a paper they could tell because of the doodles. Now I was making a card for my friends birthday so    I put it in an envelope. It was plain white. Plain WHITE! To plain for a birthday envelope if you ask me! So I added a small drawing, and then it became bigger and bigger. Until the whole envelope was drawn and colored. Now what do I do? Mom says it's fine, but I think it's at least a tad bit out of control. Okay. Okay. A big problem. But what do I do? Help me out! (Or just agree with mom)I'm thinking I might just leave it, but I don't know. We'll see how my friend reacts.

Last day of School

On the last day of school I got up at the normal time got on the bus and went to school with my homemade-poor-excuse-for-a-yearbook. Once we got there I went to sit with my friends because school started 30min. later than normal. Looking around I noticed I was the the only one dressed up and and one of the only ones happy.I left to explore for a bit, saw another friend and asked him, Why?  He replied that no one really ever dressed up and that most people were sad that school still wasn't over yet. In my opinion you should make the last day the best day, and I told him that. Sitting back down with my other friends I asked what we should do while waiting for the others. Since there were only four of us so far we decided to skip down the halls singing, "We're off to see the wizard the wonderful wizard of Oz!" I kinda looked like Dorothy so we said I was her, Lizzy was Toto, Emily was the scarecrow, and Kylie was a very very cowardly protesting coward who we had to drag. We skipped down three of the four halls singing, and in one hall past Emily's brother. Whom I was certain was very embarrassed. Finally it was time to go to our classes, and we all departed our separate ways to our first period classes where we were all supposed to meet before the assembly and while waiting for yearbooks. While there in Ms. Jones portable we mingled until it was time for the assembly, where we were stuck on the bleachers for about 2-3 hours. After that we went back into the classroom and got yearbooks if you paid for one. Which I hadn't. Then we started signing while waiting for them to call us to the cafeteria for everyone to sign them.. I had only planned to get friends and that is what I was doing. I kept refusing this one guy who is creepy and wouldn't leave me be. So while I was signing one of my friends he signed mine! What a jerk! So since one creep had already signed it I changed my plan to trying to get my whole class to sign it. Which unfortunately meant talking to people I don't know, and scariest of all asking Micah to sign my poor excuse. I already had all my friends so I started asking others. One guy to up a whole page writing his name and Justin Bieber is gay. I was not too happy about that considering I don't care about the Justin Bieber thing, and he took up a whole page! A whole page for a short note! Then after I had one more person sign I turned around and came to face Micah. I swear I blushed so badly, and I'm still embarrassed. The luckiest part is I didn't have to say a thing. He handed me his and I handed him mine. I was relieved. After signing his and getting mine back I had to ask one more person.
"Hey Judo will you sign mine?"
"Don't do it Ruth!"A classmate warned.
"Why", I asked handing Judo mine. Apparently what Judo did to mine he did  to everyone's. He kissed the paper and then handed it back.
"Thanks,"I said kinda disgusted."Blake I probably should have listened to you,"I admitted.
"Yes you should have," he said.
Finally they called us down, but we didn't go to the cafeteria. Looking around I found my friends. We all signed each others. Then I found my eighth grade friends and had them sign it too. Then my cheerleading friends and others. Our bus didn't come till 1:00, and we didn't get lunch! How strange is that! Oh well it was really fun. Except the lunch part. It was a good day. And it was funny, becuase on the bus me and Lizzy read what people wrote in our yearbooks, and Lizzy was kinda jealous that I got signatures from both her crushes, and then we saw them walk past the bus. I pointed them out and Lizzy looked out. Turned around and blushed. Heh! Heh! Heh!:) Yes it was a mostly good day.

Kitties

Twix had kittens!!!!!!!!!! :)

Yesterday at about 5 o'clock 6 o'clockish we saw Twix outside, but she wasn't pregnant. We looked for the kittens for about an hour following Twix and searching, so we brought Twix inside, and eventually she went back out. Kate saw her go over the cat-hating-only-Spanish-speaking-grumpy-neighbors-fence. Kate got me and I brought up a chair to the fence so we could see. For a  minute we couldn't find her, but then I spotted her near some boards. We got down and moved the chair closer to that area. When we got back up Twix was still there but we couldn't see her. So we got dad, and then Kate stayed inside for a minute to eat while  I showed dad. Dad didn't believe me that Twix was there because all you could see now was the rustling grass, and demanded to know if Kate had seen her there. I got Kate and she said she had, so we went and knocked on their door. The anticipation and test to my Spanish speaking was hopefully gone. I even prayed that they were gone, and guess what. They were.........................gone!!!!!! :) So Kate climbed over they're fence, went by where I had spotted Twix, and FOUND TWIX WITH HER KITTENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!:) :) :) :) :)  We brought her and her kittens back and now they're in the washroom. Mostly the kittens eat, sleep, and pee in the bed. Twix lays around purring stretching and feeding her kits. There are five kittens in whole, 4 white and 1 gray. We have no idea how she had four white cats, because we only with a gray cat and I'm positive that she mated with Shadow. We're positive all the white ones are boys and pretty sure the gray one's a girl. Their  names are:  Pip-stick, Fluff-ball, Blizzard, Dusty, and Rachel. And of course all they white ones look a lot alike so we have ways to tell them apart. Blizzard is the whitest and so far the smallest. Pip-stick has one side of her tail gray and the other white, she's also the second whitest. Fluff-ball is the fluffiest, has a stripey tail, and the second most greyest of the whites. Dusty looks like he had a small dusting of dust applied to him and is the second fluffiest and is the plainest.. Rachel just looks like her mom. They're so sweet and I wish I had a picture to post.

Party

Me and Kate hosted a party last night I think it went well. First we talked, went to the park, and played games. After that we went to the REC center and swam for a long time. It was fun but they had a zillion rules. And it seemed like the lifeguards just blew the whistle every 1 minute. After that we went home and went to the park again, we played an out of water game of Pomp. The whole neighborhood seemed to joined. Then we had spaghetti for dinner. Then we played what if their was a lot of revenge ones it was funny. Then we had floats and watched Tangled while doing blind makeovers, only one person looked normal. Then everyone went home it was fun.

School

I'm glad. I finished my CRT's for English and Science. In eighth period we're learning about assembly lines and were each given a job, and table spots. No one let me do my job or go to my table spot so I just had to talk to my friend. Micah talked to me about the CRT's. I'm putting on a play in English instead of writing a report. I have more friends in math, and I sit behind some of my eighth grade friends.  My friends came over to my party. I had a great day Thursday.  And so yeah.

Personal Progress

I am proud of myself I've completed all of faith and divine nature. I've also finished 3 in individual worth, 3 in knowledge, and 1 in choice and accountability. Which in my opinion is pretty good, and it's only been  a year. My friend Bonnie finished hers right after she turned fourteen. I hope that I'll be able to do that too. In fact in I've done about 5 in the last few weeks. So right now I'm pretty happy.

Today

Today has been a strange day during Kitchen we were making caramel when the fire alarm in the school went off. It wasn't a drill, and it was raining outside. Right as it rang some boiling caramel splashed in my eye. It was a hard haily windy rain. When we came back in the caramel was getting cold. Then we had an assembly that the teachers barely knew anything about. In English I Brought some of an MRE. I thought I'd get a lot of weird looks but instead I got a lot of questions. In Science we just learned about a test on Wednesday. Math is math no matter what it's just weird. In Exploring Tech. the normal teasing guy kept teasing me, then was the test review. After that he came up to me asked a teasing question, I ignored. Then another guy came asked the same question I was surprised. That was odd. But then another guy came and again asked the same question shocked and scared I screamed quietly. Was what Shantel said that a whole ton of people knew I liked him true? I'm am at this point officially scared. Then a guy came up and asked me, "You like Micah?" I sat my head down on the table in defeat. At home home I was happily making a smoothie when what do you know a freezing Lemon's juices hit my other eye. Ouch and it still hurts from hours ago. Sometimes  I wish I could disappear, but still today was funnish.

SNOW!!!!!

We have snow in APRIL! SNOW IN APRIL! Now you can totally tell we are not in Kansas anymore. I mean have you ever heard of snow in April. It just confuses me. Especially when it's a repeated blizzard. Man this is crazy. Hot cold hot cold that's all the weather's been like. It's kinda like spring and winter are fighting over the weather in Utah. Oh well guess we'll have to wait out this crazy weather. Wondering how warm it must be in Kansas.

Our Bountiful Baskets Collection of the WEEK

This was everything we got from bountiful baskets we got Saturday, and we've got only a few frozen strawberries left and most of the others to ripe although the starfruit was good and now gone. The little thing in the bag behind the apples is vanilla, and the bag behind the limes is mint. I think you can guess the rest.

Me with my lettuce fan. Or a fan made from a lettuce piece that fell of.

Homeschooling

I really don't want to but I guess I'll have to
BE HOMESHCOOLED.
I say I don't want to
they say I have to
UGH.
My friends are mostly leaving
that kinda destroys my point but still
I DON'T WANT TO.
BUT I HAVE TO
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Goodbye my friends.

PTC or PCT

We were learning about genes in science, so we had to taste this stuff called PTC or PCT can't remember. Some people actually can't taste it. Me I can taste just not as bad or fast as most people. Tastes a little better than Vegemite. To me at least. Every one at my table could taste it except me. One guy described it as tasting like cat barf then a dog at that and then pooping it out and both animals barfing on that. Me and this other guy agreed that it tasted like to much salt(smoked) and mixed with a chemical. I thought I'd never taste anything like that again until my mom make ice-cream with our blender. It was good but had this nasty after taste. I couldn't figure out what it tasted like until I remembered PTC or PCT whichever it was. Mom nor most of my siblings tasted anything. And I'm still trying to find out what tasted like PTC or PCT whatever.

The Swear Word

"Blah. Blah. Blah. I swear," Mom  was saying.
Then Adam popped in, "Mom you just swore."
"What did I say," asked Mom?
" I swear, and that's a swear word," replied Adam.

Leaky Diapers

This Sunday mom asked me to change Joshua's diaper.
"Mom do I have to? Becuase whenever I change a diaper it's always leaky!"
 "Yes you do."
  "Fine!"
                 Guess what? The diaper was leaky. Yup! It always seems to happen to me. I wonder how that'l  work out when I grow up. Oh well. It's kinda ironic though. That whenever I change a poopy diaper that it's usually leaky. I've probably had to change like 3 that weren't, but that's like 3 out of 24. I'm just praying it doesn't happen for a while again.

Look Like

Mom says I look a lot like Grandma, but really I think it's just our cheeks and eye shapes. But I could be wrong.

13

I turned 13 Tuesday.

We had cake and ice cream. It was all very good.

I loved all my presents from everyone. School went fine, but I jammed my finger. It's feeling better now but it still hurts. All in all I had a blast!

School 2

Now it seems everyone knows I like Micah. Everyone guesses right. AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! More than one person who friends with him has asked me, and then saw my face go red and said yep you do. I can't help blushing. Why are they asking anyway? Micah already knows I like him because of my old friend Tory. This is semester two in School. I now have Utah studies and Ms. Jones gives us pounds of home work just like Mr. Rohwer. In Exploring Tech.we're making boomerang's and hot air-balloon's. It's fun. Tory who didn't mean to make it obvious that I like him thinks Micah likes me. I wonder... Oh well, back to business. The musical was awesome we (the cast members) got snacks during the plays in the backroom. Of course I was a who. All the guys who weren't Horton or Jojo had to be monkey boys also. Now Dad and Grandma are calling Micah monkey-boy. How embarrassing?! so I guess you could say school's going good I mean I have all A's so it's all good. Besides crushes and stuff like that.

School 2

Well school has defiantly increased in difficulty. Today in Utah studies we had our first map test. It was easier than expected. In English we had a Greek Latin Root Words Test, also easier than expected. Finally I talked to the guy I liked. Yes! Things are hard though. My Utah Studies teacher gives us a lot of assignments in little time. So yeah.

Weird Valentines School Day.

I had a weird valentines day at school. As you know I had more luck giving my valentines out to relatives and on the bus than in school to my friends. One friend thought they were all funny. Yeah, so well I got a cupcake, chocolate, nerds from friends, and others from relatives. Well at school there was this thing where you could send people either flowers or chocolate for $1.50. They would deliver the things in 8th period. Me and my friend Tayvia who had moved here in the middle of the school year didn't expect to get anything,so when they called our names it took a while to realize what had happened. Looking at the note I thought it was probably from one of my friends, but actually now I can't find out who it's from. (I got a white flower and Tayvia got a pink. My other friend really wanted white so I traded her.) Tayvia got one that said, "From: Jeff Adams". We were guessed at who it was really from. Mr. Haws heard us guessing and came over.
"Oh I know who Jeff Adams is. Want me to show you," asked Mr. Haws?
"Sure," Tayvia replied thinking it was a joke, "Ruth."
"What?"
"Mr. Haws is really getting it."
"Getting what?"
" A picture book. He asked me if I wanted to know who Jeff Adams is. I said yes, and now he's really going to show me."
"Where is he?"
"Over there." There he was at the door looking through a picture book, trying to find the right page.Coming toward us he said," Ah here it is, this is when he was in 8th grade so now he's in ninth." Me and Tayvia looked at each other with wide eyes.
"I bet it's from someone else," said me, Tayvia, and Mr. Haws all together.
"He's so hot," Julia squealed! It turned out to actually be from him. Apparently he sent a ton to different girls (including 2 other friends) to get the them to like him or something like that.

Valentines

My valentines

Kate's valentines

This year me and Kate made our own valentines. I gave up on giving them to friends before first period. oh well. In my opinion their awesome. :)

Joshua

Last Monday Lil' Joshua was born. And guess what the middle name I first thought of for him is his middle name! Yeah! Sorry kinda excited. I was the last one beside Joseph to hold Joshua. He was so cute, and had long thin fingers and toes. So far I haven't had to change his diaper. Hallelujah! My friend Bonnie thought he was just adorable. I have to agree. He's so soft small squishy and cute! Just like a teddy. You know I think he has Kate's frown along with Anya. I don't know about his weight or size, but people keep asking me. It's kinda funny.

School!

I can't believe we have to go back to school already! It's CRAZY! You here me CRAZY! Oh well here are some of the semester followings...
  1.He smiled at me the guy I like smiled at me. Sometime later I said hi to him, but my voice cracked up and he looked at me. So very embarrassing. That same day I asked him about our real math teacher who was coming back. He answered saying he heard that our algebra 1 teacher was nice. I don't know why but I was happy I even talked to him. I also found out that my friend Katlin has a crush on the same guy I like. That didn't surprise me, because all of my friends have seem to like the same guy I at one point.
  2. My English teacher is nuts! He made us write three stories at once all do on the same day. Ain't that insane!!! I had two stories done, but my third would not save. So my teacher gave me more time and said to finish it at home and send it to him. i ran to the computer lab when I finished my lunch, but the door was locked so I couldn't send it. Guess I'll have to tell him tomorrow.
  3.The district is also weird, I mean because they make us go to school when they've been 300 crashes. They also make us go to school with two feet of snow. I mean that's not so thoughtful. My nice gym teacher was on her way home from work/school when she got in a car accident, and can't come back to school for a while. she can't because she can't pick anything up and it's hard for her to breathe. We had a really mean sub who wouldn't let us get a drink of water after we ran for two days. Then we got our nice sub again. I asked my art teacher about it, and she agrees with me that it's crazy. Apparently she lives in Sandy which is even harder. So yeah weird huh?
  4. Our real math teacher came back from the military. I was scared because of my fifth grade teacher who was in the army. He was okay until the end of the year when he went crazy. But this teacher turned out to be super nice.
