I'm on my Winter Break right now. It's been a while since I played my violin. I probably should brush up on some basics before I go back to school on the 7th.
Don't you think New Year is a special occasion? My friend Arya says that New Year is very inconsistent. She's right, if you live in Europe, you would be celebrating 7 hours earlier, and in Asia, 12 hours (since it's on the opposite side of the globe). The time changes make New Year happen at different times. There's also the religion. In Thailand, you celebrate Thai New Year in April.
If you watched the New Year Special on TV in New York, you'd see some people get very excited on New Year. Why else would someone shout "Happy New Year!" to the sky AND blow their party horn at it too?

A blog where I tell you about my life (I know, could get boring, so I pick out specific events which I think most people won't fall asleep reading)
Posts On My Life; The Ones Interesting Enough To Be On This Blog, That Is
There's a lot of cool widgets and posts on here. I'll be updating from time to time on things that I've done, or updates on holidays or events. I also have an awesome blog list with my older blog, my friend's blog, and Harvest Moon Forever blog. I'm a big fan of Harvest Moon! You can post comments and rate my articles on its awesomeness level, too. Anybody can comment, you don't have to sign in to your email because I find that annoying. Oh, and don't forget to feed the fish at the bottom!
About Me
- Melisa
- I play the violin, and I am on a swim team. I can also ride a unicycle, and I'm on the math team and chess club at school. I like to spend time with my friends, and I try to be responsible, but I'm on the verge of a breakdown from excessive homework. I try to update my blog when I can, but like I said, my homework is bringing me down. But during summer break, expect me to post more. Or I might be lazy. Or busy from other things.
Notes
Things You Need To Keep In Mind:
-If you want to complain, complain silently or to yourself or like-minded others. Complaining all over the place can get you shunned by peers, or in trouble with the teachers.
-Don't put your phone inside your backpack. Get a little pocket to stick onto a shoulder strap. Otherwise, you'll just spend 20 minutes walking all over the school looking for it when it was buried under your books the whole time. I still can't believe I didn't see it at the bottom of my backpack.
-Getting hit in the face with a soccer ball hurts more than a basketball. Unless someone is passing it to you straightforward and you weren't looking, then it hurts more. Also, if you have glasses, make sure to keep them on so you can see while playing, but also be careful not to get them dented by getting hit in the face with a basketball.
-ALWAYS stay at least 10 feet away from a batter at full swing. Trust me, I almost got hit in the face with a baseball bat because the batter was standing right next to me.
-Don't put your books or binders under the rails of middle school chairs. You'll just end up forgetting them later. I forgot my binder under those chairs about 4 or 5 times during my first year of middle school.
-If you have a school library book and you finish it two weeks after checking it out, don't shove it into your backpack and finally remember to return it 4 months later. Never done that before, but it happened to my one of my friends.
-NEVER mess around with settings on the computer that you will have the slightest chance of regret later when your parents find out. Learned that when my parents almost killed me this one time when I was messing around and changed some of the computer settings. :P I mean, can you really get THAT mad at somebody for altering the default font?
-Having everything essential to success with you at school is great, but the back pain is torture afterwards. I suggest you leave your 600 page workbook at school on the cheap shelf provided. Even though that shelf collapsed after a few days...
-If the school lunch looks remotely suspicious, probably safest to not eat it. I bit into an icy sandwich once. Irony, it claims it was oven roasted. Yeah right.
-Try not to judge people. I thought this one kid in my class was bad, but I ended up thanking him later for saving my friend and I from trouble. For once, he was good for something: me.
