La la la Lollipop!

According to... Alice Sista P. started the blog trend of our ward. I would like to disagree. Sister P. had a blog for a LONG time. I actually think James started the trend. Once I saw that he had one I was inspired. Then Alice made one, and now...... MAITE! I now think blogging is an epidemic.
On my way out from Spanish class, I think I made up a song. It goes like this: La la la la la la la la la la la la BLEHHHHH! What are the notes? Not a clue, but whenever I sing the song in my head I start cracking up. So it's obviously a really awesome song.
What do I DO in Spanish? Today we played bingo. Quite fun, won a homework pass. But every other day I usually practice my signature. Still no progress.

Woot!!

Oh my goodness! I totally forgot to tag somebody for the meme. Who do I tag? The one and only JAMES!

Also I got 101% on my biochemistry test!!!!! Shocking, I know. And AMAZING!!

VICTORY!!!

Me Me ME!

So there are these "quiz" type things, almost like the quizes at blogthings. I was tagged by Sis. P, who was tagged by Radioactive Jam, who just happens to be really funny and is another blog that I admire (stalk). Anyway! This is supposed to be 8 random things about me. So lets get this train wreck a-rollin'!



Uno. I can type 55 wpm.

2. In the beginning of the school year teachers give their classes a "get to know you" worksheet. One sheet has many little boxes that have a statement. Such as, "I play an instrument" or, "I was born in a foreign country" What you have to do with this sheet is get a signature in each of the boxes. Follow? No? I'll explain later. One time we were doing this in health. And yes, one of the boxes was, " I was born in a foreign country" So one person walks up to me and says, "Where were you born?"

I say, " Uhhh Utah...?"

He says, "Oh great! Can you sign your name right there? (pointing to foreign country box)"

America, I pity thee.

4. I think I'm going to have Swedish meatballs for my birthday dinner, along with something made out of potatoes.

5. Today (Tuesday 10/23) I took a pre-test in biology today on biochemistry. I got a 89% (40/45)! Which was so much more than I thought was was gonna get.

6.

You Scored an A

You got 10/10 questions correct. It's pretty obvious that you don't make basic grammatical errors.If anything, you're annoyed when people make simple mistakes on their blogs.As far as people with bad grammar go, you know they're only human.And it's humanity and its current condition that truly disturb you sometimes.

The It's Its There Their They're Quiz

7.

You Are Apple Pie

You're the perfect combo of comforting and traditional Those who like you crave security

What Kind of Pie Are You?

8.

You Are a Blue Crayon

Your world is colored in calm, understated, deep colors. You are a loyal person, and the truest friend anyone could hope to find. On the inside, you tend to be emotional and even a bit moody. However, you know that people depend on you. So you put on a strong front. Your color wheel opposite is orange. Orange people may be opinionated, but you feel they lack the depth to truly understand what they're saying.

What Color Crayon Are You?

9. I skipped number three. ;)

P.S. - It took me FOREVER to get this all right. This is not the best program for organizing information. So you better like it.

Wait! Stop!

I DON'T LIKE HOT DOGS! Just so everyone knows. Unless I'm starving at a Jubilee rehearsal, I will not eat a hot dog. Don't give me a hot dog (or a veggie dog.... hot veggie?) I will NOT eat it.
I also do not like pickles.* Don't give me a pickle for Christmas.**
If anything else comes up then I'll have to make a list of everything I don't like. I don't want to do that. It would be a very long list.
So people, please, use your better judgement.

*I had a slight over usage of the word pickle.
** People, being confused by my love of the WORD pickle, thought I loved pickles. Thinking I would like a pickle for Christmas. For their sake, it's a good thing they didn't do it.

Newsies

If the earth was square you wouldn't fall off the edge. Think of THAT! Can you study for math? I don' t think so. I mean, you can, but who would? And where is my hot dog?! (Two different links. One on hot, one on dog.)
But here are some of my Newsies (Santa Fe!)
-Breaking news-
The Derby household has just acquired a new computer game. What game? This game, Settlers 6. It's pretty painful, but also extremely delightful. Does that make sense? I THINK NOT!
I need glasses. I will look awfully awful wearing them. The bad news is, contacts are against of my religion. So there.
This is a strange "thing" isn't it? A tad odd. ;)
-Sad news-
This happened a while ago, but our Chinese food place burned down. I KNOW! What shall we do?!?!
-Happy news-
Birthday!!!! In... (Doing the math, it's gonna take a while) 78 days?
Mathematical error!
It's 82 days until Christmas.
