I started a Charter Home Study Academy three weeks ago. It has been very interesting with all the classes I have been taking. What I have heard from teachers and other parents is that all the..."punks" go to Charter schools, so that they don't "Disturb the peace at schools". Well I'm glad to say that I only have mmm, maybe 3 so called "Punks" at my school. I have 6 subjects Math, English, Science, Health, Spanish, and a Typing class (mom thought that might be good for the future). I have 3 classes at the Charter School. English with 6 other students, Science with 5 other students, and finally (my favorite) Espanol - Spanish. My teacher for espanol is very nice and does not right away speak English to you. Not like my dad's teacher when he was my age. He said that he had one teacher that spoke spanish all the time it was never ever English so all the students had to learn it to understand him.
I have learned El alfabeto last week and now know how to spell my name in espanol. I have to "Hand in my work" every week and meet with my teacher as well. All of the Teachers there want every student to call them by their first names so I have to call my teacher Diane instead of Mrs. ------.....I don't even know any of the Teachers names (they refuse to tell anyone). They think that it will make the student feel more comfortable around the place. Hahaha, yeah it gets pretty interesting. Now on to a different subject:
Subject: GIRLS' CAMP! Girls' Camp was so much fun. Although I think SOME of the guys thought it a little "boring and really interesting" by what some of their sister's told them. Well, let me tell you, It was on of the best of the best camps we have had. Even though we couldn't swim it was still an awesome time to be there with all the girls and be with Our Lord. We went on 3 hikes. The first was a Shelter Buliding hike the next was a Nature hike/animal room, and then the last I couldn't go on because it was too steep. But it was a Gold panning hike. We did Silk screening, made Alms Jars, and also we also made Out-Door Shrines for Our Lady. The Skit night was soo much fun! The parents did one about the Altar Boys wanting to go and see what we R.M.G's. do every first Saturday.
SO two boys "Ethane" and "Justina" disguise themselves as the "New Girl's" and stay for a meeting and have tea with all the girls. It was very funny what all the parents did. So congrats to them for an awesome skit! Another night we did a Square Dance. That was fun as well. We had Mass every morning at 7am and of course me with my Alarm Clock woke everyone up at 5:30....by ACCIDENT!!! LoL...OH! And of course the Catholic Jeopardy!! And of course Group 2 won! We all did an awesome job! And man, did group 1 do a sweet job as well! Although that's what you get for studying all night when you could be partying with Group 2 till 11pm!!! ;-p Anyway, I think that's it for now....If I missed anything from Girl's Camp please let me know Girls!
Adios!!

School and camp sound interesting. :D No really, I hope the other girls enjoyed it too. But the girls camp can't even compare to Camp Sacred Heart, sorry, but it just can't.
All I see is weird symbols!!! Haha good photos though, in the least. :-D The smore thing sounds a little scary...it's TOO organized....
Here here, Lanchae. But no, I really think Mrs. Maher and all the moms who helped did an awesome job, according to what my sisters say. Congrats to you all! Just don't get the idea that Camp Sacred Heart is leaving Donner Mine. NEVER!!!
Did you mention how Annie's and your alarms kept blasting off at 5:30AM in the morning?! 5:30AM!!!!...oh ok, you did, all's good then.
But you did fail to mention how Christena's, Heidi's, Elaine's and my shelter was the best!! Seriously, we did a better job then all of you ;-)
Yeah Damien, me too, all I see is weird symbols, like ot's in Wingdings. Is it just our comp or is it Shan? :)
It has to be Shannon. She just doesnt want us to read all about it because we're too intelligent for it in the first place. ;-)
yeah right Des, ours was definitely the best
Haha Catherine, We soo won the Shelter Building contest! Desi ours was....THE BEST! Damien I tried to fix the whole symbol thingy. I didn't mean for it to be like that. AND YOU STILL CAN'T HAVE MY SIGN!! ;-p
Adios!
Shan,M
oh please! Des, you said that two of your sticks fell down....well only one of ours fell and that's because he basically lifted it off and threw it to the ground!! Hence, ours was better, cooler, roomier, etc. etc. etc.
Look who's talking Des! Fr. Deprey didn't even kick ours twice because he knew it was never gonna fall down...
Okay Desi theres no need to over react over this, we all know Kat and her team did their best...but we won...and thats all that matters. Desi I only remember maybe 1 big huge stick going down the rest were very little sticks. Oh well.
1st place!! Yeah!!!
