My Edgar Allan Poe Project

So, guys! I just made another pretty cool project blog because a I couldn't fit everything in on my last project. So I figured that it would be cool to just make a blog about Edgar Allan Poe to finish the rest of my project.

Basketball Tryouts

Well, I did it. I guess. We had our first tryout round for the baketball team. This year they decided to do everything a bit different this year. They decided that they are only going to have 1 comp. team for all of 6th, 7th, and 8th grade. That is good news considering that there are like 40+ people going out for this one team. It also wasn't a good thing that I was sick the day of signups and the first tryout round. I did alright, but it wasn't close to my best. Although there weren't to many spectacular things going on. Which was good for me because I am amazing and got checked off by a rebound/shot in midair in scrimmage games. So coach (who is sorta strict and doesn't pay too many compliments) says " Wow, that was a good catch and shoot basket there." Being sick I said "(sniffle, sniffle) thanks coach" He was putting checkmarks by peoples names who did good and thought were good, like me, and pays them compliments. So I'm feeling pretty good seeing as though I was sick and still got checked off. Our next tryout/cut practice is on tuesday, so wish me luck!

School

Well, I made it through the first 3 weeks of school! I have decided that school is hard, boring, and makes you get cramps in your hands for writing so much. My first period at 7:40 is English with Ms.Nodolf. She is okay, but really strict about somethings, mostly homework. I next have History, also with Ms.Nodolf. ): She gave me 50% credit on something just because I turned it in a little late (which has lowerd my grade from an A+ to a B because we've only been at school for a couple of weeks). Then, third period is my elective, Exploration,(right now I have Computers) with Mrs. Carlson. She is okay but her voice really annoys me, it sounds like a dying bird. For fourth period I have Mrs.Book, for Science. She is freakin' amazing! Everything about her screams amazing! She's not strict, mean, or "off the ball". I have P.E. for fifth period, with Ms.Smiley, yes, Smiley. She's okay, I mean she's not mean or anything, but she's not too great. Last but not least, I have Algebra 1 with Mrs.Osterkamp for sixth period. She's pretty good but boring at the same time. I finally get to go home at 2:30. That is what happens at Barrett for you. Pretty exciting. I am not sure when basketball is going to start but I'm sure that I'm going to try out to make the competitive team.
