Boredom

Seriously there is nothing going on in my life, hence the lack of posts. This weekend we are going down to Monroe for Calvin's baby blessing but that is about it.

Oh wait there is one bit of exciting news! Mom got a 4.0 this quarter and made the presidents list! Do you want to know the key to her success? It was me, her genius daughter, my brilliance just radiates from me! Jk mom worked really hard and did a great job, I would post some of her art work on here but the school has kept most of it to display in their showcases. I might be able to get a few pics though.

Our quarter just ended, THANK GOODNESS that I only have 1 more quarter and I am done! Of course that just means I have a whole quarter of end of level testing, oh joy! My new school is OK, but it has been a big adjustment from Monroe where there were 300 kids in the whole school to my new school where there is 2000 kids and more coming. Some of the kids here are pretty....... interesting. Rainbow hair is normal and brown hair is not, lol I guess I am the weirdo! Right now I am just trying to get through the year, German class is driving me insane and there is no end in sight for that because apparently it would look great on my college applications if I had 3 years of a foreign language so I still have 2 more years of that. And algebra is killing me! I am still holding onto my 4.0 that I have had since the 6Th grade so hopefully I can keep that up!

Here are a few pictures of some boots that mom painted for her color theory class. Yes, that was a real assignment, to paint a pair of shoes. I wish my school was like that! They were supposed to paint them to look like something a famous artist would wear. Mom chose Grandma Moses. So here they are!

Now that I have bored you to tears with my talk about my pathetically boring life and school you can move on to more interesting blogs! And to all you Cottles, KEEP POSTING! It is nice to see what is going on with you guys!

4.0 for both you ladies? that's so awesome! and lynnzie, sounds like you are getting an amazing education - take it from someone who did the reverse (2000+ kids to 400) ... you will learn a LOT more in your new school ... i promise :)
