boys

yes i know the topic of this entry is petty and sereotypical, and you've probably been excpecting it, but i have to write about it. You see i go to an all girls school, this i beleiev has made me socially retarded when it comes to boys. What i sont get is how you meet them in the first place, many people know boys from hebrew school or sunday school, but im not jewish and all the kids from my sunday school live 30 min from me and none of them are nice. i dont know what these people do to meet them. then  after you have met them, what do you say, obviously ur not gonna have the same interests, and if you meet them at a dance its literally impossible to talk, and the worst part is when you know who they are but the dont know who you are and its really awkward cuz u say hi, and they look at you like huh. and then theers the whole business of asking numbers, and certain advice giver, keeps telling me i should wait for the boy to ask, so i do, and they never do. i only have one guys number in my phone because my friend needed to remembber it and she didnt have her phone and i had mine so she plugged it into mine, and i never got a round to deleteing it. the other thing is, im the type of person that when i feel that my coolness is being threatened or you  think im weird clams up and cant say anything, all the creativity to make jokes suddenly disappears, and my tone of voice gets weird to. its not only with boys but with other girls that are on teh mean side. and then the big thing i dont get is why people invite groups of boys and girls over to their houses to hang out, i mean i almost never have my best friends over to begin with, so how am i gonna invite someone i barely know??? and even if i do know them wouldnt it be awkward, so ya i guess im an awkward person when im put out of my element. thats basically all i can say for today, the spawn of this post wast that i keep seeing these people post stuff on fb like "just got back from persoin1's house with person 2 sooo much fun heart heart" so ya thats it for now

look @ the post below

hello so i edited the post below so if you already read it skip down to the last par.

class trip and a dance

hi
so a lot has happened in the past 4 days that u guys need 2 hear about:
so this year for a class trip we went to WILLIAMSBURGH!!!! well... how do i start... ok, so we were told we were aloud to wear shorts -- of appropriate length. they kept saying "no booty shorts" so i assumed they ment the kind of shorts that ur butt actually hangs out, and since i dont own any of those i wasnt that worried, but i took 2 pairs of long bat mitzvah shorts just in case. when we got to williamsburgh the teachers inspected everyones shorts, and im not exaggerting, EVERYONE had to go back and change. so basically half of the grade wore bat mitzvah shorts, which were basically basketball shorts for boys. it was also in the 90's tempearture wise, so that was annoying. it was really very boring, becasue all we did was go on tours in 90 degree weather and stand for hours on end listening to people talk about stuff. there was this guy though, he worked at a printing shop, and he was hilarious. when we walked in goes (in a very heavy stereotypical redneck accent) "hey y'all! now you come inside. all you shorter people, y'all come in front. ya, all you late bloomers, come in teh front." then he started talking about how high school is worse than middle school. unfortunatly his shift came to an end about 1/3 of the way throuhg the time we stayed at the print shop, so then it was boring. the night before that happened we did this thing where you basically are given the experience of becoming a soldier, so we were but into different platoons and we had to march and stuff, but the people were really mean and they kept shooting real guns with real bullets in them at teh wall in front of us, then we went on a ghost tour, which wasnt scary, and im a very jittery person, so for me to say that it menas it was the exact opposite of scary. really te only fun part of the trip was lunch and shoppoing time.
when we were finally back home we went to a dance, where my friends ex bf asked two other girls to go out with him, to make her jealous. ooh and i introduced two people that now like like eachother. im a greta matchmaker. o ya i almost forgot!! so to get into the dance you were supposed to have a ticket or a school ID. the first year i went every1 was aloud in, the 2nd year you were supposed 2 have a ticket but if you didnt they'd let you in. this year though even the people who brought school ID's werent let in (and it said clearly on teh ticket either a school ID ot ticvket wa srequired) but i had my ticket. the thing was though, that the people didnt care if you were from an invited school, becuase i know many people brought their ID's but werent admitted. they also said that they scanned the tickets to make sure they werent copies, whicj i knew wasnt true becasue A.) there wasnt a bar code or anything B.) i saw our school secretary print and cut them out on regular printer paper.

tockwogh

hello yesterday i said  would fill you in on our class trip last yera to camp tockwogh, i reminded myself to do this because our class trip is coming up again. im not going to say where we're going for fear that some random person will stalk me there, but i will fill you in in the deets when i get back. anyway, back to tockwogh.

camp tockwogh is a sleep away camp. it is located across from a military weapons testing center, with a large lake that seperates it. if you go within 100 meters of it they will instantly shoot you with a machine gun. this was scary because they took us out on the lake on motor boats, one of which got stranded and had to be towed to the shore. there was also an oil slick the showed very obviously in the part of the lake people were swimming in. all throughout the night and day we heard loud things that shook the whole area and sounded a lt like thunder. we were told they were testing bombs. the scariest time they tested a bomb was when we were hiking and they tested the loudest most powerful bomb, which made me deaf for a few seconds after it happened, and shook the groud. i was a hugging a tree for support.

camp tockwogh also had undrinkable beverages. the food was ok suprisingly, but the drinks were horrible. the water has extra iron in it, and therefore tasted like blood. the milk was expired (trust me youi know milk has expired when you pore skim milk into breakfast cereal, and it looks like heavy cream.) and the only other drinks were watered down gatorade. the tap water had the least iron in it so thats what everone was drinking, exept in the morning when me and my friend found a boiled water machine and made tea. the boiled water was the only water that didnt taste like blood at all.

the other issues were the temerature (in the 80's with no A/C), the crickets which didnt affect my homeroom cuz our room wasnt in the basement, but a ffacted another homeroom to the point where you couldnt sleep in the bottom bunk bed and people were sharing twin beds, which trust me is a tight squeeze. this blog entry was not meant to diss ockwogh in any way shape or form, but merely provide you with the details. i feel like  only listed bad theings so here are the good things that happened:
our homeroom became REALLY close
smores
campfires
fun
friends

i know this list is shorter and the bad things seemed to rul wout teh good, but i wouldnt have traded those three days for the world. they were such an exoerience. i highly reccomned going but if you do bring A LOT of bottled water, and dont forget to pack your deoderant

homework

so i realized i posted exactly a week a go which makes me think that i will probably end up posting once a week every wednesday, but i can not gaurantee that.
so now i will now update you on stuff:
     all teh eight graders from last year said there was sooo much homework, but i have only been getting 45 min. of it max.
     the greek affair is coming up
     our class trip to williamsburg is coming up (hopefully this place will have DRINKABLE water, unlike toqua, which i will talk about in my next post.)
     our class might be the first class to gave a rap as our class song
     the kardashians are stupid
     ryan seacrest is a midget
     there are people that eat chalk in this world
     i found a dead snake on the road
    did i mention ryan seacrest is a midget?
thats about it for today.

school...

ahh its the beginning of the school year. time to think about school aaand classes. aaah!!!!! ewwww nooooooo i dont wanna think about school :( well im taking latin and chorus which is supposed to be too hard to do so im really nervous about that, plus we have the same people in our homreooms, just different teachers, whichj is a little annoying. so yep thats it. once school starts i'll be able to report on drama, teachers, and more interesting thinngs, but for now you'll have to settle on reading the pointless stuff ive been writing
