A New School Year

I will be starting my 7th year of school September 8th...I cannot wait! There's so much to do and learn!

When I'm eighteen I want to work at the health food store so this year I'm going to study Botany. The book is set at the fourth grade level but it's really detailed so I'll learn alot. Then the rest of my school books were downloaded from The Puritans' Homeschool Curriculum.




This is my very messy desk...I need to clean it.


This is my new locker,before, it was a cart full of drawers.
I love my new locker!


I am very excited about my new school year!

Beautiful Sunset

I was wandering around the yard, and I saw the sunset. As I was running to the house I said, " I got to get a pic of that." So I took many pictures, but thought that this one was the best.
Isn't it beautiful? If the telephone poles/lines and the hurricane fence wasn't there then it would probably look like a painting.

Some school I want to show you

I want to share a book report with you. I JUST finished it:

James and the Giant Peach is an exciting 126 page adventure fiction set in England, by Roald Dahl.

James' parents were killed when he was just four years of age. He was then sent to his Aunt Sponge's and Aunt Spiker's home. There, he was badly treated and beaten for no apparent reason.

One day, he was sitting in the garden and an old man came to him from out of the bushes. The old man gave him a bag of green stuff, and James was told to put them in a large jug of water with ten strands of his hair and drink it all. As James ran to the house he tripped and fell, the bag burst open and all of the little green things wriggled out into the ground. Little did he know, that the disaster would become the adventure of a life time.

James' Aunts told him to chop some wood.

He picked up the chopper and was just about to start chopping away when he heard a shout behind him that made him stop and turn.

"Sponge! Sponge! Come here at once and look at this!"

"At what?"

"It's a peach!" Aunt Spiker was shouting.

"I think you might be mistaken, my dear Spiker. That miserable tree never has any peaches on it."

"There's one on it now, Sponge! Look for yourself!"


The peach grew to about the size of a house. Aunt Sponge wanted to eat it but her sister, Spiker talked her out of it by telling her that if they showed off their huge peach; they could make a bunch of money from it.

That night, Sponge and Spiker was counting their money while James was picking up all the garbage the crowd left behind earlier. While James was picking up the trash he found a hole in the side of the peach. He looked inside, he crawled in. Farther and farther he went till he bumped his head on the pit. Then he found that there was a door in the pit, he pushed it, and it swung open.

Before he had time to look up and to see the creatures around him he heard one of the creatures tell the others to see who was here. James had never saw colossal spiders,ladybugs,grasshoppers,centipedes,earthworms,glow-worms, or silkworms before.

Next morning, he woke up to his new friends shouting and the peach lurching. The Centipede was biting through the stem of the peach so they could roll down the steep hill James lived on. Finally the stem was cut through, and that's where James' and his friend's adventure began.



I hope this makes you curious enough to borrow it from the library and read it. It really is a good read. I loved this book, There are more books like this by the same author.

Jack cought a rabbit!!!

Jack caught his first rabbit of the year!! Plus, it was a adult! Previously, he has only caught three baby rabbits before.

I thought I should get a picture of Jack with his rabbit. Jack broke its leg and made a bald patch on its hip when he pulled though the fence, then he tore a hole in its neck.
Mum took this one, she said, "Jack looks happy in that one."

Jack wanted to eat it but he wasn't really hungry so he was nibbling little bits off. Soon, Flies and yellow jackets came and started feasting on the rabbit.

Eventually, we dug a hole hoping to make Jack put the rabbit in the hole...it didn't work. He was growling and snapping at the flies. He wouldn't let me near him. We had to come up with a plan. Finally, we came up with a plan...the laser pen.

It took about five minutes to get the rabbit to the hole. Jack grabbed the rabbit as soon as it was dropped into the hole. Then it took another two or three minutes to get Jack to let go of the rabbit. Dad told me to get the leash. By the time I got back, Dad was burying the rabbit.

Dad tried to get the leash on Jack, but he ripped the leash out of Dad's hand and shook it as if he was going to tear it to tiny bits. It took another three minutes to get Jack into the house.

Jack had rabbit blood on his shoulder, so he had to take a bath. He's all clean now.

METEORS!!!!

Last night, Mum, Dad, Jack and I went outside to watch for meteors.
At one point, there was a HUGE one, well, maybe the size of a gulf ball or a pea...but it was AWESOME!!!!!! I should see if I can draw it...hmmm...lemmie see...here we go...





Sorry it's sideways, it wouldn't let me rotate it. Still looks cool though, doesn't it?

Backyard pictures

Isn't that pic cool? I always loved it when Jack's ears were flapping like that.
Mum was telling Jack to go in the house here.






I thought this looked like a canopy in the rain forest or something.
Mum liked it too.





This is kind of cool. I was going to show how big this tree was until Jack stepped in front of it.
This tree has to be like a hundred years old!!


Cool! the sun rise!
This was the best one out of all of the sun rise pics I took.

I might post more nature pics later, right now I have to buckle down and finish my schooling, I should be done with school either this week end or next.

Doodles

I was bored one night, so I decided to draw and came out with this doodle page.



I wanted to do doodles every night.



I think I did this one during the day, not at night.


I know, I know, I'm not good at dimensions(laptop) or faces (robot girl).



My sis-in-law told me to draw the cabin.
the cello was supposed to be a guitar.
