[glow=red,2,300]Wendsday January 4th 2006[/glow] Right now in school, but after school i will be moving all my stuff from my old bedroom in the upstairs to the basement. Like my sister and brother in law i will be living in my own space and room in the basement! I never did get to work on the ghillie suit, due to moving some stuff out of the room that i will be moving into, and playing some games (air hockey ) SOLs are today and for the rest of this week. Today was the Geometry SOL, and i think i did well, tomorrow is 2nd block SOL which we won't have then i will be able to relax in our class and do stuff.... This evening i will be moving stuff out of the room into the storage and then moving my stuff to the basement....then playing games I will probably be able to work on the ghillie suit either tomorrow or whenever after i move into the basement. God bless

[glow=red,2,300]Thursday January 5th 2006[/glow] again SOLs today, i didn't have to take any...instead we sat in our second block which was Information Technology for me and watched movies, etc. Tomorrow (friday) is 3rd block SOL which i have things to do such as make up my test i missed in American Studies (which was originally due Monday but i wasn't at school because i was confused to when we will go back...) So 3 hours in 3rd block will be VERY VERY boring!!! Yesterday, i managed to move completely to the basement! I for now reside in the basement!!! woot! Got my own room, own space, etc! I enjoy it down there!! Mom and dad took off to Georgia to see my Aunt Pat and Uncle John to do some trim work for them. Apparently my Uncle John can't do a good trimming job lol!! So they took off for a week or two and i am stuck with my demonic and evil elder sister!!! Ghillie suit is not yet complete, because i moved into the basement into a new room, i don't want to make a big mess with the ghillie clothing i chose so instead i will wait until i move all my ghillie stuff into the storage part (which is almost next door) near my room. That way i can hang the ghillie clothing i am working on in the unfinished floor trusses above, and the storage is a big mess anyway so a little ghillie stuff ain't going to hurt anything!! I am looking forward to the weekend! I can't wait til the weekend!!! Will update journal on [glow=red,2,300]Friday January 6th 2006[/glow]

[glow=red,2,300]Friday, January 6th 2006[/glow] *sighs* well today didn't go so well...check the "Hangover or just venting" forum about my ordeal with the devil sister of mine... Other than that it is the weekend, so it is at least something i can look forward to, and uplift my spirit with... SOL's aren't over though...monday is 4th block which we don't have one, then next week we have make-ups or re-does of the SOLs. Pretty much that's about it for today....little problem with sis, a little about school and SOLs and a little about what's ahead... No more hunting, i surely give up for the year, two deer are good for me! Will update Journal on [glow=red,2,300]Saturday, January 7th 2006[/glow]

[glow=red,2,300]Saturday, January 7th 2006[/glow] Weekend is finally here!!! Got to sleep in pretty late this morning. Today on my agenda is to either work on my ghillie suit, or if it is not too cold outside (seriously doubt) practice with my bow and arrow... Mom and dad aren't coming back until tomorrow night, so i am stuck with my sister for today and tomorrow.... Exams are coming up here in the next few weeks, really looking forward to those God bless Will update Journal on [glow=red,2,300]Sunday, January 8th 2006[/glow]

[glow=red,2,300]Sunday, January 8th 2006[/glow] Expecting mom and dad home today! (really this evening...) WWE's New Years Resolution is on tonight, the big Elimination Chamber match....i am guessing John Cena will pull it off again... Anyway, school again tomorrow this weekend sucked! Being stuck with that evil sister of mine... Oh well, hunting season ended yesterday, i didn't go because i already packed away all my hunting gear and threw them in the closet. My brother's friend killed a nice 11 point buck last night, so at least they had luck! Pretty much for today, sit and wait for folks to come home. Maybe if it is warm enough, go shoot my bow and arrow a little. Maybe even pop a few cans with the .177 pellet gun of mine. I will find something to do today to keep me busy while i wait 4th block (american studies) SOLs tomorrow, which we don't have one until the end of the 2nd semester. So tomorrow will be 3 hours in our 4th block, whoopeee!! God bless Will update Journal on [glow=red,2,300]Tuesday, January 10th 2006[/glow]

[glow=red,2,300]Tuesday, January 10th 2006[/glow]
Yesterday was a normal day as usual, SOLs etc. Parents came back sunday finally and they brought home an outdoor fire pit, and we started it up last night.
Today i'm in school and pretty much going with the day. We are having a birthday party for my mom the weekend before the 24th (20, 21st) and i was able to invite some friends so i am getting them siked up and letting them know about it.
Tomorrow we will be having a field trip around our town of Orange County for Information Technology, asking businesses how computers affect their business, etc. (what we are learning...) stuff like that...
This evenin i will hack up more fire wood for the pit and split some wood. And do more things with wood, and since it is pretty nice outside (in the upper 50s and lower 60s) shoot my bow and arrow some....
As noticed i decided to do my journal entries once every other day. So like Monday i make a entry, then skip tuesday and then wednsday make an entry, etc. that way i don't have to constantly entry my posts into the journal everyday, i only did that these past few days to catch up on things....
That's it for today....

[glow=red,2,300]Thursday, January 12th 2006[/glow] Yesterday (11th) we went on the field trip around Orange. It was a good time walking around and meeting new people and seeing businesses. Last night we finally got our pool table in that we ordered my mom for Christmas, so today (matter of fact right now) they should be setting it up. So when i get home, it will be ready! and i get to play some pool lol! This evening if it is not too cold i will go outside and shoot my bow for a little and even work out the plans for my garden in the spring time. This garden this year (spring-fall of '06) is going to be bigger, better and have more varieties of vegetables. We are getting plum trees, bigger growing pumpkin, black berries, and some other good things to grow! The world record for largest pumpkin was a pumpkin that tipped the scale of 1,300 pounds! the worlds largest watermelon weighed 212 pounds! Big vegetables! Hopefully my new garden will be more successful than my first one did! God bless Will update Journal on [glow=red,2,300]Saturday, January 14th 2006[/glow]

[glow=red,2,300]Saturday, January 14th 2006[/glow] yesterday the men finally came to set up our pool table! YAY! So i was able to play pool after school! (pool after school is cool! ) As i type my mom and dad are playing it right now lol! I bought a new gardening book from Lowe's today, and it tells me important information about how to plant, what to plant, when, etc. and good description and tips and guides about certain vegetables, etc. I will start my new garden by April, during March is when i will start germinating my vegetable plants (germenation is the process in which the plant erects from the seed and appears or breaks the soil line to start a plant; for those who don't know ) And i also recieved excellent news! April 29th (10 days after my birthday) me, mom and dad are going deep sea fishing for Stripped Bass!! We are going to spend the weekend (29th and 30th) Stripped Bass fishing!!! I can't wait!!! Tonight and tomorrow i will work on my skills in pool lol! and improve my game in pool, so far i am doing ok, but i still am a rookie tomorrow i will start working on the layout of my garden and get some of the garden beds built. (Wooden garden beds) Perty much that's tonight and tomorrow...new semester starts on my mom's birthday which is January 24th...so i will be getting a whole new set of classes and hopefully the wood working class i've been waiting for all year! God bless! Will update journal on [glow=red,2,300]Monday, January 16th 2006[/glow]

[glow=red,2,300]Monday, January 16th 2006[/glow] we were supposed to have off today from school, but because of all the snow days we've missed before Christmas break, we need to make up some days. Anyway, yesterday was the usual, played pool, and built a start for my garden bed. It is the cucumber bed i will use that is 15' (long) by 3' (wide). I will soon build the others for tomatoes, squash, etc. Exams are starting on Wednsday, i have two exams that i know of that i have to take, that is Geometry I and Information Technology. I found out my new classes for the 2nd semester, i have resource, and American Studies are the same, but now i have agricultural I which is my wood working class and Earth Science II. Today i guess i will study for the exams, and maybe sharpen my skills in pool other than that, if the day is warm or fine I will sharpen my shooting skills with the bow, or work on locations for my garden. Mom was saying to put the garden in the drainfield, which is a good idea since it will provide fetilizer from the septics that run from the house to the drainfield but it is also bad because that is where most of the animals come to eat the corn we throw out (deer, squirrels, etc.) so if we put my garden out there, i am afraid that it will be eaten up! I think that about covers things for yesterday and today. Come this March i will start a new journal (if allowed) about my garden process. It will be a daily journal about my garden and things that happen. If it is possible to come up with two journals then i will come up with a name for the garden journal. Going to check and see if i can... Will update Journal on [glow=red,2,300]Wednsday, January 18th 2006[/glow]

[glow=red,2,300]Wednsday, January 18th 2006[/glow] 1st block and 3rd block exams today, just got finished with the 1st block exam which is Geometry I, i think i did perty good i don't have a 3rd block exam (resource; study hall) so mom's coming to pick me up today at 11:00am. Tomorrow i have 2 exams, 2nd and 4th block which is ITC3 and American Studies (ITC3 is Information Technology) Yesterday we played pool, our friends came over and the adults all drank beer, played games and talked. I played pool and watched the television. Today of course is exams and the morning started off nasty, rain and wind! Wind blowing at least 20 mph, and rain coming down like cats and dogs... When i get home from school at 11, i think i will just take the day easy, relax and watch tv or play games. I guess there is no making two journals...oh well, in the spring time i can change the heading of the posts i make to my garden and continue with this journal as my garden journal... thinking maybe for a title.... "Veggie Delight of 06" or "Greenthumb's Journal" or "The veggie journal"...Something like one of those... Will update Journal on [glow=red,2,300]Friday, January 20th 2006[/glow]

[glow=red,2,300]Friday, January 20th 2006[/glow] Yesterday was exam day at school, had 2nd and 4th block, i passed both of em! got a 94 in each!! Unfortunatley for the 2nd block exam was an online exam, and truly everyone failed, the teacher even tried it and she failed too!!!! So she gave us extra points to pass the class. I had an average of 53.6 but then the teacher added like 43 points to that and i got an average of 94.5! So i passed the exam. 4th block exam was American Studies (History and English together) and i passed the English exam with a 90 and the History exam with a 94! so they averaged my semester grade to a 93.5 I passed the class too! We are now off today (friday) and Monday! And my mom's birthday party is tomorrow!! WOOT! her birthday is really the 24th but she's having the party tomorrow! time to play tons of games (darts, pool, air hockey, and foosball) so we are going to have fun! Today is basically cleaning up and getting ready for the party tomorrow. I'm helping mom clean up and get the house ready. We are having tons of people over for the party, so we better get it cleaned up well... That about covers yesterday and today...

[glow=red,2,300]Sunday, January 22nd 2006[/glow] To start off with yesterday and today, let's explain first yesterday since it was a big day... Saturday, January 21st 2006today is my mom's birthday party! well really her birthday isn't until the 24th but we figured to celebrate it on the weekend that way we can throw a big party with a lot of people so they can play all the cool and new games in our big basement (3,000 sq/ft basement, got a bar, pool, air hockey, darts and all kinds of neat games) We spent all day cooking and preparing for the party which started in the evening. Our friends John and Tabby, Chad, and some others showed up early to help prepare. By the time everyone got here we were already playing games and eating some finger foods that we had. At 7:00pm everyone was here, people from my father's drywall company (people he works with), people my mom and sister knew and some others. My mom's stomache didn't feel too well throughout the entire party, so she spent almost all the time of the party upstairs resting. She woke up with stomache pains and this morning she still has it. Everyone was drinking, and tons of us had a blast on the pool game, i won 4 and lost 2 so i am 2 for 4 on losses, 50% chance of winning Then the party starts to crash down, people start to leave and then mom shows up, stomache is feeling better and she stays down for a little bit. Then the party is ruined because my brother drank 1/2 gallon bottle of Parrot Bay rum! He instantly passed out and puked everywhere!!!! and what's bad, is i cleaned it up this morning oh well, it's a got to do thing... My brother's friend David picked Chris (my brother) up over his shoulders and carried him to the truck to bring him home. My brother was out of it! Too much to drink, and it messed him up! He is definatley feeling it this morning! My brother when he fainted, fell right on his head on the concrete patio we had where he puked, etc. All he said was "I didn't feel anything....i am fine..." he didn't feel anything last night because he was practically passed out, but this morning he will feel it! Pretty much the rest of the party was taking care of Chris, blah blah blah. And everyone left.... We managed to go to bed at 1:00 am, and then i woke up at 8:30 am...7 1/2 hours of sleep..not bad...(not good either...) Sunday, January 22nd 2006Today is the day i had to wash the puke off the patio, with help from my sister and brother in law we cleaned the left overs from the party, etc. I am now typing on the computer with mom in the bed, her stomache doesn't feel good still. I pray she will be fine, will post a post in the prayers forum for some prayers. Finally cleaned up the puke by 10:00am, it is off the patio, i used the hose and washed it off, it was perty chilly this morning, when i cleaned all the...never mind...off it was in the 40s. The sun is out now and hopefully it will raise the temp a good bit. Here lately we've been getting in the highs of 50s and 60s and the lows in 30s and 40s... No school tomorrow so that's good! We go back Tuesday however with a new semester and new schedule, my new classes are Wood Working (my favorite!) and Earth Science II! can't wait for those classes! Pretty much today is relaxation day and a time for myself. I will get on with building the shelters I promised in the Survivor Forum on the board, there i promised pictures and examples of each type of shelter you can build in the wilderness. lean to shelter is one, A-Frame is another and finally my favorite "The Hut". From March to October will be the journal (on this one) for my garden. It will start on March 1st 2006 and last until Halloween. I will post pictures of my garden, things i will grow and a day by day update on the garden and what goes on. So expect the Journal to change views by March. I will keep the dates to daily on the garden journal that way we don't miss anything ;D God bless Will update Journal on [glow=red,2,300]Tuesday, January 24th 2006[/glow]

[glow=red,2,300]Tuesday, January 24th 2006[/glow] A big happy birthday to mom, i need to go home and wish her a big happy birthday! Last night was the usual, i finally found an old hunting game for the PC, Ultimate Deer Hunting Challenge! I downloaded it and played it for a little bit... Today we went back to school, and to me i thought today would suck, but nope it turned out well! I got two new, awesome classes. One is agricultural class where we learn wood working, welding, plants, etc. And the other is Earth Science II: Astronomy and Oceanography. Right now it is lunch time, i got C lunch as they call it which is the last lunch! oh well. I just got done with ES:A&O, and after lunch i am heading off to American Studies II. After i get home i will grant mom a fare happy b-day and shoot my bow some, catch up on UDHC (Ultimate Deer Hunting Challenge) and maybe even watch a few shows of tv. Especially DIY and see if i can find any woodworking or welding shows on so i can learn more about these subjects in school. Errrrmmm...i think that about covers today and yesterday. Yesterday was basically a lazy day, but today is a perty exciting and busy one. New classes, new teachers and a stressful time at school...but hey i am enjoying it! God bless Will update Journal on [glow=red,2,300]Thursday, January 26th 2006[/glow]

[glow=red,2,300]Thursday, January 26th 2006[/glow] (really i am typing on the 27th, i got caught up yesterday the 26th...) Yesterday was the usual... Here lately we've been getting perty cold temperatures. Ever since i started into Astronomy, i knew this was the right course for me. Tonight i actually stepped outside and was able to see Orion (the constellation) and the belt! I thought i could see Cancer too (the crab) but i wasn't sure... The skies where clear and the stars where bright! We ate at Country Kooking and i saw one of the girls from my school working there! So at least i seen someone i knew! Like i said i am typing on the 27th by accident, and i will still update it Tomorrow, the 28th... I am sooo glad i took that Astronomy class! It really has me interested in the stars and constellations and outer worlds from ours! God bless! Will update Journal on [glow=red,2,300]Saturday, January 28th 2006[/glow]
