Dear Diary,

Today is Friday, January 18, 2008.

I woke up at a reasonable time this morning because I don't have to be at school until about 8:00.

I don't remember if I told you or not, but I have started to participate in a club called "Breakfast with Degrassi". The librarian offers pop-tarts and juice boxes as we watch "Degrassi: The Next Generation" on Friday mornings at about 7:55.

Afterwards, I went downstairs to Mr. Flamich's room for morning advisory. He read the attendance list, and I responded with a blunt "here" at the call of my name.

I ran upstairs to Social Studies, and we finished watching a movie called "12 Angry Men".

In English, we went over a quiz we took yesterday, and Caroline and I presented our report on the Jim Crow laws, and I believe we did well.

In gym, we've started a new unit on Heart Rate. Today, we jump roped as an exercise. My heart rate was in the comfortable zone, the perfect workout zone.

I bought a baked potato and a salad for lunch, and I studied for Math in newspaper and in Science. We had a major chapter exam that I felt I did well on. I hope I get a good grade!

In Spanish, we took an -IR Preterito test and reviewed for a test on Tuesday. I am thrilled that we have a three-day weekend; at this moment; I love Martin Luther King!

I waited for the bus with Mary, Jeannie and Ashley, and we had fun chasing each other around.

I have now come home and grabbed a snack of veggie chips and have started to watch Gilmore Girls.

Well, much partying will be done this weekend! Have a wonderful holiday! I will write more on Sunday!
