Imaginary Goats

Where the metaphoric goats roam free

It has been a long time.....Yes....a long time.

The title of this post comes from an assignment given by Mrs. Kircher in which we had to take a picture that she had and write a narrative about it. Mine was about three birds talking about taking over the world and then one of them starts singing, the other screams at him, the former dies of exaustion, and the other one breaks his neck. The third bird was just a conversation starter.

But it remains true, I haven't posted in a long while. I suppose it's like a vacation that I didn't intend to take. Oh well. I am begining to wonder if anyone actually reads this...Also, I was talking to a certain anonomous friend of mine about blogs and he said that they are too popular and everyone has one and what the heck is the point?! I think he has some good points, but I also think that blogging is good. I mean, the 99.7% of blogs that have one post and are never posted to again, are like old Windows copies, you love it at first, then find out it's too darn unconvienient and buggy, and eventuall move on. But those of us who are too stubborn to give into the temptation of letting it slip blog. Wow, that was a long explaination. Oh well.

School is going well, I am bored, but what can one expect? In the case of Computer Graphics, I know more than the teacher. But that's because I got private lesson-like-things from Andrew Stone, the guy who coded the software we use. First period, Social Studies is.....erm....entertaining. I don't learn anything, we spent and entire period today watching people (our classmates) prance around in funny costumes to crazy, Curranized music. Yeah. But right now, I'm teaching myself about the history of Mormonism by reading "Under the Banner of Heaven" by Jon Krakauer. It is a scary subject, to be sure, but it's more interesting than what we're "learning" in school. Language Arts is a good subject this year, I am challenged, I am enlightened and I have fun doing the assignments! (This comming from the guy who says "Throw grammer out the window!" and stuff like that). Literature is fun, as always, but the latest Seminar (Seminar is a kind of thing where all three grades converge on one room for a week and disscus issues of importance, such as Iraq, food, icecream, and the tricentenial.) on Albuquerque's 300th birthday has turned out to be a drag. We COULD do a bunch of fun activities, instead, it's "sit down, watch a movie, and copy some stuff off a paper." BORING!!! But no, we don't get a cool Seminar like that.....oh well.

Halloween was a big success, candy-wise. I got a LOT of candy, I'm loving it. Hahaha. McDonald's sucks.

Bye. I'm going to go read about crazy, crack-pot polygamists now.
