My Sixth Grade Orientation Was Today

Today was my sixth grade orientation! Last night I picked out my outfit for today, and I picked out one of my favorite skirts. It's purple with white polka dots and it has two pockets. And my shirt, my aunt got me. It's gray, and it says "be nerdy" in the periodic table. And I have a green bow in my hair (I love to wear bows in my hair!) And I wore sneakers too. I went to the orientation with my two good friends. And when we got there I saw a bunch of my friends, and a lot of new faces too! Then we got split into groups with two eighth grade girls who where going to show us around my middle school. We first went to a class room and got into a circle. We went around the circle a few times and said our names. Then we switched up the game. Now we had to say our name, and the person to our right's name. Once we did that a few times, one of the eighth graders, changed it some more. Now you have to say your name, and the person to your right's name and if she yells "stop" you have to say your name, the person to the right's name, and the person to your left's name. And if she yells "switch" then everyone has to move places, next to new people. And if she yells "mash" you have to say your name, and everyone else's name. After we did name games we did sort of "getting to know you" games where you pick a number, and that number has a question, so once you pick a number you get a question. And we filled out work sheets ( it was not school work.) After all of that we had a snack, and we got a tour of the middle school. And we had lots of talks in the gym. So my day was pretty fun. I'm happy I went to my sixth grade orientation, but I don't feel like I really needed to go. I'm so excited for sixth grade!

Angel's New Haircut

This is my dog Angel. And her hair was so bad! Before me and my mom cut it, there was nots and mats everywhere. So today we decided to give her a good trim. And this is how her hair came out. She looks so cute! But I think that her hair does need to grow out a little bit. I had a great time cutting her hair, it was fun!

My New Vera Bradley Purse

I just got a new Vera Bradley purse! I love it so much. To the right, is what's inside my purse. And to the left is my new purse! What I love about my purse is how much stuff it fits, and You can adjust the straps three different ways. And look at how cute it is! Hanging down on the front of the purse is a vera bradley key chain ball, and on the side I have a blue pen. Inside my purse I carry A note pad, it has a pen attached to it. that has a cute dog on it and under the dog it says, "I have a question . . . When do I get more treats?" I also have what looks like a Vera Bradley coin purse, but I use it for wax (for my braces) and these tooth pick things (also for my braces, and it's for if I have something stuck in my braces.) I have "After Shopping Breath Mints" in a cute, tiny, tin purse. I have Altoid mints, and Extra Dessert Delights Gum that is mint chocolate chip ice cream gum. A coin purse that has different flavored Tick Tacks, banana berry flavored Skittles Lip Smackers. A lipstick case with lipstick in it, a mirror with hairbrush that I got at Sephora. My pretty house key, pink, strawberry scented hands sanitizer. My purse holder that I use to hang my purse on tables when I'm out eating or something. A sharpie pen. And a key chain bubble wrap thing, and Glux.

There's A Mouse In My House

Attention!

Everyone there is a mouse in my house! Yesterday, me and my mom went to "Ace Hardware" to get a mouse trap. I wanted to get the one that looked like a small black mail box, so that when we catch it I can see it alive. But it turns out that small, black mailbox looking case kills the mice, when they walk into the mailbox thing they get electrocuted. once I found out that they get electrocuted, I did not want that mouse trap anymore! We finally decided on a mouse trap that has peanuts stuck to a very sticky tray, and when the mouse goes to get the peanuts, they get stuck on the tray. And, they don't die! Since mice come out mostly at night time, we had to wait, because they were asleep. Soon it was time to go to sleep. So I went to bed thinking happy thoughts, but then I started to think about the spider that was it my room that morning and the mouse. Then, once I was asleep, I had a bad dream that there was a mouse in our house the size of a mole (the animal) and it went for the sticky trap, but because it was so big, it did not stick! So then it started to jump up at me! And all my mom did was walk away! "What if the mouse has rabies!" I yelled. And she did nothing. Then the mouse was my pet, but I was still scared of it. It was such a weird dream! (Now I'm done telling about my dream) And then when all of my family was awake, my mom went to check the traps . . . And one of the traps was gone! AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Somewhere in my house or garage there is a mouse with a trap stuck to it, and I don't know where is is. So this morning me and my mom went to get another trap, but I don't know what type of trap this new one is. I hope none of you have a mouse in your house like me (unless you want a mouse in your house.)
