WASHINGTON!

AND ENDER’S GAME!

So for our Class Field Trip, we went to Washington and stayed there for two nights and three days. We wake our drowsy, unwilling (and yet willing) selves up out of our beds and drag our drowsy selves and heavy suitcases or whatever to school at FIVE O CLOCK.

And anyhow, we stayed there (got there Wednesday) and then came home today, at approximately six or five thirty in the afternoon.

It was fun, but most of the fun-ness was with friends, not particularly anything about Washington. It may have just been any other place in the world and we would have had just as much fun. We played Asian Mafia, ate Ramen, talked, ran around, played finger puppets (for like two minutes), and other worldly things.

ALSO.

Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card is the best book you will ever read, whether you know it or not. Ender’s Shadow is good, too. And it’s not like Harry Potter or the Hunger Games, because it’s much deeper than that.

In fact, so deep that KIDS IN HIGH SCHOOL READ IT FOR THE STUDYING SORT OF THING! So before reading it in school and thinking it’s so boring and dreadful (like most books turn out to be when you read them in school), read it on your own so you can fully enjoy the wonders and perfections of this book AND spoil the ending for everyone when you’re reading it in school! (If you are, that is.)

Ender’s Game I’ve read two and a half times already, and now I’ve re-started so that I have read it two and two half times. (Because reading the first half twice does not mean that I’ve read the whole book once.)

AND PLUS they’re making a movie in 2013. But Ender is the actor from Hugo, Ava something or something like that, and he doesn’t look ANYTHING like Ender. YOU PEOPLE.

Then again, how many actors are there out in this world who can look and act like a six year old and yet have a charismatic aura about them, as well as some genius intelligence?

Not many.

BUT ANYHOW IGNORING ALL LOGICAL EXPLANATIONS WHY COULDN’T THEY CONJURE UP SOME CHILD WHO LOOKS LIKE ENDER.

 

You know I really didn’t mean to make it caps lock, and I’m not all that mad, but my pinky finger disobediently pressed the caps lock key, and by the time I realized how angry it seemed I was (in the text), I wrote too much and I didn’t feel like erasing it and re-typing it un-capitalized. So I am sorry if you are shrinking back in your seat because of my nonexistent wrath and fury.

 

Kaythanksbye.

Ender’s Game

Is the Best Book In The World (don’t talk about Harry Potter, please, Ender’s Game is a bit better than that).

I looked it up, and THANK YOU, ORSON SCOTT CARD he wrote a bunch of books. And on the San Fran trip, I read Ender’s Game almost twice, (I’ve read the book once before), meaning I’m reading this for the third time.

I still can’t fully understand the hidden meaning. I mean, I understand it, I know it, because I can feel somewhere it the pit of my stomach, but I just can’t seem to bring it up and into my brain and hand to write on paper/type.

And then when I looked up ‘Ender’s Game,’ some of the ‘suggested’ choices thingys was ‘Ender’s Game movie.’

Then I was thinking, hrmph?

I searched that, and IMDB says it’s coming out 2013. Plenty of time to read the books, and then watch the movie.

I can’t wait.

:D

I love the idea of it.

GRAHHHHH

 

Okay.

I’ll stop.

(Technically I haven’t even ‘started.’)

Read House of Stairs by William Sleator

So, how do you like this "new look"? It's awesome, isn't it? I had to download the base-beginning for the layout and pictures and colors and format and stuff, but I basically had to "fill in the blanks" to make the website according to my subject. Which took lots and lots of hours. I had to use the html coding that blogger lets you edit. I had to find every single thing and change the link, and change every single font through html coding. You have to give me some credit on that.
Sorry, I feel really proud of myself right now, so I might sound all snobby. But it really took a while.

And html is pretty fun. I learned a lot this time, with links and pictures.
Links are like this:
< a  h r e f =" put your link here " > Link title < / a >
it's always < s omethin g >
and then < / something >
the / means that it's the finishing thingy.
Sometimes you don't need that.
that's when it's something like < b r > (have to put space in between, or it does the actual thing), or < h r >
It's so cool. :D
You should learn it. Just look up "learn html" and there's a bunch of really easy tutorial thingys that help you! From then on, you can pretty much make any format webpage you want. the thing is, there's a looooottt to learn.

I just know the basics, which is what helped me "fill in the blanks," which might sound easy, but took all of this morning.

Oh, wow. I forgot the initial point of this post.

make it short--I gotta go eat right now.
READ HOUSE OF STAIRS BY WILLIAM SLEATOR RIGHT NOW.
okay. My point is clear now.
Bahbye. {:
