Circus

Well, yesterday my family and I went to the circus! It was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!! The animals were such well trained and how often do you get to see elephants standing on top of each other ( Oh, and something really cute was that when the elephants walked around, they held the other elephant's tail!!) Then there were tigers standing on their hind legs and a man walking across and rope.....blindfolded!? Well, I got to yesterday! It was so cool to see everything and everyone did everything perfectly! It was chair grabbing excitement! Plus I almost forgot! There were Beautiful horse and ZEBRAS!!! Doing all sorts of amazing tricks! The horses were running around the ring and with one word, everyone of those horses turned around and started spinning! It was so cool!! :D Plus there were some pretty cute dogs who were going down slides and riding scooters, Doing FLIPS off of 10 foot diving boards into guys arms, jumping over people, jumping in wagons and then driving away! They were so cute! They clowns were amazing too! They were on trampolines and they would jump into hoops and they were really high! And there was a lot of magic acts! Dogs dispersing, humans turning into REAL tigers, an elephant dispersed! I have know idea how they did it but it looked super real! We had really good seats! We could see everything from where we were and we were close! (Good thing I wore my contacts! :D)
It was something I will never forget!

New school year

Okay so my family and I talked and found this school that offers you the chance to only take a few classes. We went there and checked it out and we all liked it very much! So, I am going to the school in the morning for 4 classes and then I will come home after lunch! And my best friend is going to the school too so I will have someone there with me on the 1st day! When I come home it will be around 12:00 or so? Then I will have a lot of time to do home work and other things around the house! I am very fortune to have this opportunity! We were going to do the other classes that I will need to take, at home, but I am taking all of the classes that an 8th grader needs to take at the school! So I am free to do anything once I get home! I wasn't thinking that I was going to go back to school anytime soon but we just loved the school! I love the idea for my school schedule! And I don't have to go to school on Fridays because I have co-op! Co-op is a place for homeschoolers to get more interaction with others and learn some more classes! Last year I did: Knitting, study hall, teen games, and yearbook! It's like a school for home schoolers to go to but only on Fridays! :D
So that is what's going to happen! I will still let you guys know what's going on in my new life!
Happy Friday to you all!

Sims 3

Oh my gosh! We got Sims 3 yesterday! Yippy! :D It is so much fun! And if you have ever had Sims 1 or 2 you need to get Sims 3 because you can choose the color you want for your clothes, paint, furniture, flooring! It is so cool!
And the new clothes are so much better! But I have to say, They don't have much of a choice for guy's hair styles. Bummer. But you can buy hair styles on a website! YYEEPPYY!!
Yeah so if you would like to have a game where you make a person and buy a house and create it yourself and start a family and get a job where you can really go too, BUY SIMS 3!!!
It is very cool!
My 2 brothers and I bought it together so we have to take turns on it! And it's annoying!!
It's like my brothers keep there eyes on the clock when I'm on because every time I get on, when my time is over, right at the end the say, "Your time's up!!" Right at the exact time! OBSESSIVE WEIRDOS!! :D

About the beach

So we went to the beach on Friday and found lots of crabs! Sam, my little brother, and I were lifting BIG rocks and logs to find the crabs. It was fun! Once we lift up this rock and we found a lot of baby hermit crabs!! They were so cute!I was hoping to find some star fish or fish but we only went so far out that we only found CRABS! We would find big clam shells and then we would put the crabs in the shells and keep them in their and look and them. It was fun. Then we put them back where we found them. Oh, there was this HUGE crab! He fit in our palms of our hands! He was really big!
There were a lot of people at the beach so we only stayed there for like a half an hour. But when we were walking back to our car, we found this really cool hiking trail! We all stared walking up the trail then my mom said that she was going to stay there and Sam and I went up a little more! It was so cool!! I want to go back there some time so we can see what the top looks like? We went pretty far up. And there was a part of the hike where the trail split into another trail but we didn't go that way. So now I want to go up that way! It was fun at the beach! :D

The beach

Today my mom is going to take us to the beach and we are going to do school there! Since my school work is done online, I can't bring the laptop to the beach because it won't work. So I am going to bring a book and read or write. I am going to try to find at least 3 different sea creatures! My mom said that it's low tide today so I think I will be able to find some creatures!? LOL
Well, I don't know when we're leaving but I will tell you about it tomorrow!
I have to go get ready!
Take care
