My Lazy Cat

First of all, my cat looks like she weighs 30 pounds. She just sits around all day, staring and eating. This led me to thinking ... what if I could just sit around all day, staring and eating? Pros and cons. First, the pros - it would be kind of nice to get scratched on the belly and eat whenever I wanted. I would also like to lay around and not have to go to school or do any homework. (And I think it is the dream of all children to not have school or homework). Now, the cons - I wouldn't want to get squashed on the road by trucks and have my life ended with the title of "roadkill." But, then again, I could simply just stay indoors. So, to conclude, there really are no cons. Cats have a great life and I wish I were one.

My Crazy Monday At School

Hi all,

First of all, everybody at school is saying "hi" and "ciao" and I am wondering if they are saying "hello" or "goodbye." Did you know that "ciao" means both? So what I want to know is how are you supposed to know if someone is starting a conversation with you or ending one? Anyway, we had a crazy math test today. We had to divide both halves of fake profit money and write five paragraphs about why math is awesome. Can you believe that? Come on! We should vote to see exactly how many third graders think math is awesome. I, for one, like math, but this particular task, not crazy about. My favorite part of the day, as always, was gym, but all of us were sweating profusely because our gym teacher made us play hockey with long sleeved pinneys on! Don't get me wrong. I love gym and I love hockey, but I don't love sweating like a pig. So I hope tomorrow I can figure things out. As a side note, I think school should only run from Tuesday to Friday, and that someone should really, seriously consider a four day school week. Bye for now. I mean, ciao for now,

Poll Results

My first poll - 'Do you think you allowance is enough?' ended and I am happy to report (to my Mom especially) that 100% of poll responses voted that their allowance is not enough!

I will have to ask Mom reconsider my allowance!

Please click on my new poll question, "do you like summer or winter better or are you undecided?"

Movie Tickets

Hi everyone,

Today was my first radio appearance, my Mom and I were on 'Hot 103' because we won movie tickets to an advanced screening of the movie Hotel for Dogs. It's so cool because we get to see it before anyone else can.

Back to school tomorrow, my vacation is over!!!
