UIL!
Today, I went to UIL, for the third time in my life.

As it always is, it's awesome, and it was a BEAUTIFUL, warm day today! ^_^

Ahhhhhh! Now, my brother will be able to go tommorow and try out all the things I told him about!

First, as usual, the principle and teachers called out roll for the people who were definetly going to UIL (including me :P) and gave us nametags (I've still got mine on, right now) and tell us to do our best, have fun, and represent our school well.

The place where we compete is an old-fashioned Baptist camp--so you have to find fun in your own way. Fortunetly, most of us know how to do this; interact with friends and other people, walk around the beautiful, green fields, play soccer, play basketball, play football, play ping-pong (if you have money; I never bring my money anywhere except in stores when I really want to get something). You can climb trees, or just stay in the buildings and listen to music and play video games.

First, I had Social Studies, the very first class they took. ><
Well, it was nice, being inside a cool building, but I've always thought that they should refurnish the inside of the cabins; they look too dull. The test was actually pretty hard, but I got 12th place, fortunetly. When we got back, I old my American History teacher, and she was very proud. ^_^

Will got first, though. Yay Will for getting first place for our school! ^_^

After Social Studies, I borrowed Kirby's CD player and listened to Naruto music (she knows how much I love listening to GO!!! and Wind, my two favorite Naruto songs) :P

Then, I began straving to death. I almost always eat breakfast at 5:30 in the morning, so you can imagine being hungry at 11:05 am...><

I had TWO servings! TWO! That's never happened before--I never eat two helpings, so, you can see how desperate I was. Stomach growling, and all that. I had about six or seven of those nice soft, small, warm square rolls or buns (whatever you call them), a piece of fried chicken, green beans, sunflower seeds, two small pieces of cake, and since they didn't have water, and I'm NEVER going to drink sodas, I got myself a cup of orange juice. All of that total. I got a small stomach ache from all of that (serves me right) and I'm not going to eat for the rest of the day!

It was really sunny--And HOT! I kept on going in the main building every so now and then to get cool, and I drank a bit from the water fountains there. While I cooled down in the main building, I thought, as I usually do when I have nothing to do, and paced all around the builiding, because I didn't feel like keeping still. I got to play on the piano too! :D
When I played my dad's favorite song about three times, three girls walked to me and told me how good how played and asked if I had taken lessons, and I said that I did when I was seven until 2005, when my piano teacher retired (actually, I should have said that she moved to Virginia, but it was close enough; I forgot at the last moment)
It shows, they said.

Tee hee! :D

So, it was nice to walk around in the sunshine and make my own fantasies. As for what they were, I won't ever tell you; its a secret that only I and I will keep to myself. XD

Anyway, when we left, I almost took a nap, if it weren't for the fact that I forced myself awake. That food was gooooooood! :D
I like being drowsy like that.

We got back in time for 8th period (aw!) and my American History class was in the library, so I went there, of course. They asked me how I did, and I told them that placed 12th, and they congratulated me. I spent the rest of the time reading books for my Social Studies project.

I still feel sleepy now, but I'm happy.



A little late to say this, but let's make 2007 a good year, okay?
