Very Little

Thanks, Daisy and Alothe.

Those who have not answereed my earlier question, please do*

You know, it took me to the 4th time to see Narniato see the gorilla. I might not have noticed it, but some one pointed it out to me.

Now I've seen Narnia 4 times...Twice in theatres and twice in homes. And each time in a different place.

I think I'll savor this moment...

:-)

Ok...

Daisy--You might be a little too hyper and kind to play Jill, but...

:-)

Alothe--Interesting choice. I had been thinking more along the lines of girl characters.

Me?

Umm...

I can see it now...

(My name)--Court Member 24.

Not much to say.

Sorry, Tlepolemus.

HAH! Got it right!

Well, did you all check out Narniaweb?

I hope they don't keep on pushing the release dates back.

If you could be anyone in any of the upcoming Narnia movies, who would you be?

You can be as silly as you want in deciding, but, if you could, please could you do a semi-practical one, too?

Please answer!

Yes, I'm still alive.

Oops. Sorry, Tlepemous. I think I mispelled your name, though.

Oh, and I don't know about the dating question. That was just the answer that I put down.

Is anybody else glad that they're not giving to the presentation tomorrow?

Sad news for EVERYBODY from Narniaweb--

Prince Caspian's release date may be pushed back to Christmas 2008 beacause of difficult special effects.

Or something along those lines.

At any rate, I think Alothe Illise has the link of her blog, or you can just type in

www.narniaweb.com

Ok, I've got to go, but one last thing...

Does anyone want a life-size replica of the Wardrobe?

Testing 4.

Testing finished today.

YIPEE!!

:-)

It was Bible today. Though, Church or Christianity would have been a better title.

Probably the funniest question had to deal with dating.

:-)

Yes, hurrah for irony, Annie Laurie!

Which reminds...

Before I forget, I want to put that inscription up here.

Halt passenger, take heed what you do see,
This tomb doth shew, for what some men did die.

Here lies interr'ed the dust of those who stood
'Gainst perjury, resisting unto blood,
Adhering to the Covenants, and laws
Establishing the same, which was the cause
Their lives were sacrific'd unto the lust
Of Preltists abjur'd. Though here their dust
Lies mixt with murderers, and other crew,
Who Justice justly did to death pursue.
But as for them, no cause was to be found
Worthy of death, but only they were found,
Confident and steadfast, zealous, witnessing,
For the Prerogatives of CHRIST their KING,
Which Truths were seal'd by famous Guthrie's head.
And all along to Mr. Renwicks blood
They did endure endure the wrath of enemies,
Reproaches, torments, death and injuries,
But yet they're those who from such troubles came,
And now triumpth in glory with the LAMB.
From May 27th, 1661 that the most noble Marquis
of Argyle was beheaded to the 17th of Feb.ry 1688
that Mr. James Renwick suffered; were one way
or other Murdered or Destroyed for the same cause, about
Eight thousand of whom were execute at Edinburgh, about an
hundred Noblemen, Gentlemen, Ministers, and Others: noble
Martyrs for JESUS CHRIST. The most of them lie here.

That is from a gravestone/monument in the Greyfriars Kirk graveyard.

I think that inscription was about as close as I could get it to the orginal one of the stone, considering the lettering and weathering...

And the fact that the picture was sideways.*

*-Thanks to my dad for the picture! You can still read the lettering really well!

Testing 3.

Thanks once again you all!

This will be really short.

Social Science and Science were today.

:-(

But, I remembered that Fe was the sign for Iron.

:-)

But, who knows about the Federal Budget Deficit?

I certainly wasn't sure.

Ok, got to go.

Thanks!

Testing 2.

Thanks you all.

Testing...mostly easy and fun. But, yesterday, I almost started to panic and guess on math. Oops.

But, today, I finished doing the problems for Spelling and checked them in ten minutes. EVERYBODY was done in twenty! I think that's a record. :-) So, we stopped the time there, instead of having to wait another tweny minutes. :-)

I rarely ever bring a book, Annie Laurie. I either forgot or don't bother. Though, I almost always have time to read it. :-)

We had a different class monitor today than we did yesterday.

Today it was an older man. Yesterday it was a lady reading a book titled "End Times."

Is anybody (obviously not Missy or Alothe Ilisse) here going to take the ACT in June?

Sister1 and I might.

I'm going to really stink at it.

:-)

Annie Laurie, how's your youngest sister doing?

Alothe Ilisse, do you have any updates on your friend yet?

Missy, Hmm... How's life?

:-)

TESTING! 1, 2, 3! TESTING!

You know, Daisy, what you said didn't make a lick of sense.

But, knowing you, you did it on purpose.

:-)

We had Lab today.

:-)

Vinegar and powdered drain cleaner don't smell as bad as water and powdered drain cleaner.

In case you couldn't tell from the title, Sisters 2, 3, and me are doing standardized tests at the Christian School.

Do you know what that means?

It means that we (are supposed to) leave at 7:30 A.M. and drop Sister1 off at Vo-tech. Then Mom takes us (the middle three) to the Christian School. Then she takes Sister4 home or shopping or something. Then, at 11 she picks Sister1 up. Then she heads over and picks us up.

Sisters 2 and 3 are going to take longer at there tests, so I'm going to have to remember to bring a book sometime.

:-)

Last night, we were talking about the breaks we're going to get and how the older grades got less time than the younger grades and we were wondering why, and Sister2 spoke these immortal words.

"That's beacuse the younger you are, the harder it is to find the bathroom."

A year and a day and 124 posts later...

Shucks. I missed my year anniversary of getting my blog.

Oh well.

Yep. Sure are getting old.

Let's see...

Tlepolemus is 15.

Alothe is 19.

Daisy is 14.

Sister1 is 17.

Annie Laurie is 16.

And me? Daisy and mine's days are numbered.

:-)

Harry Gregson-Williams is coming back as composer for Prince Caspain.

:-)

It was really hot outside today. I made two loops around the pasture on my bike, but that was it. And I made four yesterday!

Mom is sending us to bed now. So...good night and sweet dreams!

And don't let the bed bugs bite!

Not much at all.

Alothe, it is on The Chieftain's Further Down the Old Plank Road cd. The song is actually by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, though.

:-)

Thanks, Missy. It might kind of make sense.

Japenese? Sounds like fun. Any seafood in it, Alothe?

Remind me, Annie Laurie.

Did anybody die, Daisy?

:-)

Thank you all for your comments!

You know, Sister1's birthday is in two days...

Anybody else want to panic?

Just kidding!

She'll be seventeen!

And as I may not be on again until after her birthday...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

"And all kinds of fun tricks have begun as they wait for the squid on the squid jigging ground."

That's what I want to know, Alothe!

:-)

Though, Missy has reviewed now...

:-)

We're 99.99% sure that they will have to, Alothe.

Ah... A track from the Narnia soundtrack just came up. Wunderkind.

You'd think they'd know how to spell.

:-)

I love Narnian (as in movie) music!

I love Narnian (as in about) movies!

:-)

You know, not too many people have updated.

Except for Legolas.

And not too many have reviewed, either.

Except for Alothe, and now, Missy.

Thank you!

Ok, onwards.

I helped my mom make some Chinese today.

That means, in this case, I chopped the carrots, broccolli, and chicken. She's cooking it all now.

Sisters 2 and 3 are up still. And VERY wired.

:-)

A very, very fun song, The Squid Jigging Ground, is playing now.

Hence, the title of my post.

Mostly, but not inclusively, Narnia

According to Narniaweb, the Narnia people will have to decide where Prince Caspian will be filmed soon.

Like within a couple of weeks.

:-)

I hoping that it will, too, Alothe.

So... Are you the only one reading my blog right now?

Oh, and is your family getting Narnia right away?

I'm 12/19ths of the way done with Bleak House. Yes!

I like the book, but, it is long and drags on.

I went to the orthodontist today. The appointment was really short. I don't have to go back for another year.

:-)

Tomorrow morning at 1:02 a.m. and three seconds, it will be 1-2-3-4-5-6.

:-)

1 hour, 2 minutes, 3 seconds, 4 months, 5 days, and 6 years.

:-)

I heard that on the radio today.

Do you know what today is?

An one week anniversary of getting my glasses.

The first time I have ever steamed up my glasses -- twice in one day!

And...

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe came out on dvd today!!!

"A little bit of this; a little bit of that..."

*GASP!* I'm actually posting in the day time! *GASP!*

:-)

She's back! Keira Knightley is playing Elizabeth Swann Turner in POTC 2.

But is just Elizabeth Swann in POTC 3.

?

:-)

Narniaweb pulled some funny pranks for April Fools.

Be sure to read it!

:-)

Thanks, Alothe! Now I'll just have to see if my parents will let me.

:-)

Something tells me they won't.

:-)

Sister! is coming home today!

YAY!!!

I'm halfway through Bleak House!

HURRAH!!!

We're probably going to have a math test later this week.

Ok... I'll let you all (or maybe only Alothe [Thanks, Alothe!]) go now.

ONE MORE DAY!!!
