Snow Day!

Amelia dosen't feel attractive in her snow outfit.
A picture of how much it really snowed.

Amelia likes drawing smiley faces on her mom's car.

Almost 4 inches in the shallow part.

Leadership

A new trimester has approached ever so quickly at Miller Jr. High. This means new classes, new grades, and new surprises. Starting with last Wednesday, for example.
I was talking to my friend Chansey (of whom I share my Leadership/elective class) about our schedule change. She pointed out, "I can't belive we have eighth grade lunch now!" and I literally gasped. I had NO KNWOLEDGE of this fact. Dining with eighth graders was not exactly in my agenda. Here's an overview of the rest of the conversation.

Me: "What? We have eighth grade lunch?"
Chansey: "Yeah. It's a combined class with 7th and 8th grade."
Me: "That's jank."

Chansey was correct, and today I ate lunch with the small handful of "seveys" that were thrown in against their will like me. There are 10 of us, counting the world rythems class that also have 2nd lunch.
So that's how my trimester started out. Can't wait until March 4, 2009.

XOXO,

Meet Dixie!

We welcome the newest addition to the McIntosh family! She is a Blue/Red Heeler and German Shepherd mix (Or a purple Shepherd :-). Dixie caught Hannah's eye at the Grays Harbor Fairgrounds yesterday, and Hannah always wanted a blue heeler. So voila! We brought her home. Tasha will have to adjust to the new 8-week-old!

Watch a clip of Dixie in action!

XOXO,

!Amelia~&~Dixie!

She's Thankful for a Pyramid?

Erm, no. I'm not thankful for a pyramid. Well, sort of...

The blurry pictures you see above are the photos of my faux pyramid. I built it for my social studies class in hope of extra credit. No, my pyramid is not life size. I don't think they shrink you to barbie-sized in the afterlife. I wouldn't know, since I've never been a dead Egyptian.

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I thought I should give a list of all that I'm thankful for. Cliche? Yes. Do I care? Nope :-)

I'm thankful for:

• All things music,
• My family and friends
• My BESTIES
• The extended portion of the fam :-)
• All the recent technologies

XOXO

Amelia Rose (Pilgrim at Heart!)

Oh, How it's Been so Long!

Sorry! I've been rather busy with everything! Here is an update on my current life arrangement. :-)

1) I finished a 496 page book! (Twilight by Stephanie Meyer)
2)I've been obsessively listening to music...(Poker Face and Just Dance by Lady Gaga, and crushcrushcrush by Paramore)
3) I have the best social studies teacher in the world! I love Mr. Harless' class! (I'm currently building a pyramid out of poster board...yowza!)
4) I'm getting good at making oragami frogs!
5) I started PE last week. I can in fact do push-ups! (Are they good? No.)
6) I got rainbow braces...and broke a bracket.

So that's what's up in my life. How 'bout you?
XOXO,
Amelia

BRAVO OBAMA!

It's approximately 8:30 at night, and the polls are drawing to a close. The headlines read clear on Yahoo! Poll Coverage: "America's First Black President."

Congratulations, Barack Obama.
