OK, so every year becomes even more hard than the previous year to decide what I will be for Halloween. This is because it is no longer about looking for costumes that are clever, it's now about looking for costumes that are the opposite of your personality. Think about it: a day to switch identities and be someone your not, even for a day, no one will ever know whose hiding under that mask! For me that idea is thrilling! Like lets say Justin Beiber puts on a mask and goes around asking people if they like Justin Bieber, no one will know it is actually him so they'll answer him truthfully! When I am famous I am SO going to do that!!! Well I'm off, places to go people to see! Happy Halloween! Mwahahahaha!!!!

First Day Back at School
Ahh September, sounds harmless right? WRONG!
September is the month where the kids go back to school again..................those words alone should get you scared! Whether it be buying school supplies or picking the first day of school outfit, the few days leading up to the first day of school are frantic!
SHOPPING FOR SCHOOL SUPPLIES: School supply shopping outings are fun, except when you think about it. Schools send you these big lists with like 75 things you need to get for the new school year when most of the time, you don't even use have of the things on that list! Plus, people usually don't need to scramble about getting their items because on the first day of school, our homework is to finish getting the supplies!
FIST DAY OF SCHOOL OUTFIT SHOPPING: There is usually a big difference between shopping for boy's first day of school outfit than shopping for a girl's! The boys that I know probably just walk into a store and pick the first T-shirt they see! Whereas the girls usually take all day with their selections! Trust me, I know!
Good luck with everyone's first day of school!!!!!

Lights! Camera! Action!
Hello people!
This past week, I have been in a Preforming Arts camp in Elmsford, NY. It's called Random Farms Kids' Theater. We preformed 101 Dalmations today and it was a huge success. Our performance was at 11:00a.m. but we had to be there a 9:00a.m. to get used to the stage and stuff. I play one of the puppies who Cruella De Vil steals so I have to wear ears on my head. It was so embarrassing because when we all ran across the stage at the end, my ears fell off! I didn't know what to do! I quickly grabbed them and shoved them on my head and kept on going!
For those of you who don't know the story of 101 Damations, it's basically about a family of 2 dog parents: Pongo and Perdita, 4 Dalmation puppies: Penny; Lucky (that's me); Pepper and Patch, and 2 loving owners: Roger and Anita. Their next-door neighbor, Cruella Di Vil, is a crazy person who steals dogs to shave them and sell their fur. So Cruella wants Roger and Anita's puppies so she can that to them. She and her 2 henchman, Horace and Jasper, steal the puppies but Pongo, Perdita, and the dogs of London rescue the puppies and all the other dogs in the fur vault from Cruella. Cruella, Horace, and Jasper end up arrested and Roger and Anita decide to by a big Dalmation Plantation, with all the money Cruella had from the furs, for their 101 Dalmations. Everyone then lives happily ever after!
The directors were great and made all the rehearsals really fun so go to link below to pursue your dream in theater! haha

Summer Vacay
Hola people of Earth and beyond! This is TOD here to talk about one thing: SUMMER VACATION! Sorry, i felt the need to scream.
This past school year has been filled with change, happiness, and of course some education. Change has occurred this year because I just started the whole process of changing classes, lockers, and meeting new people from other schools. I have made tons of new friends from all the different elementary schools, we have become super close throughout the year. My favorite class this year was Digital Literacy. Dig-lit class is when you learn different skills on Mac computers. For example, we learned how to morph different animal parts together on Photoshop to create a new kind of animal. That was one of our projects, I created a Gorifishrd. This distinct animal has the head of a gorilla, body of a fish, and talons of a bird. (Right)
My least favorite class this year was Health. I don't know if health will always be my least favorite because it was only one unit we did this year that made me hate health class. The unit was......suicide......(scary music please). We read almost 5 cases of kids that were bullied or cyberbullied so hard that they wanted their life to end so they killed themselves. It was a very depressing unit.
HAVE A GREAT SUMMER!

HAVE A GREAT SUMMER!

P.S. Another extra credit project I did was create a screaming apple so you can take a look at that too! (Below)

Friends Fornever
Have you ever had a fight with a friend? Friends after fights are like bananas, they need time to ripen before you can get back together. I recently just made up with a friend of mine. We had a fight over color duck tape!!! I was at her house and we were making duck tape pens and I wanted to use the blue but she wouldn't let me have it!
By then I was mad, I asked her, "why are you being so mean?"
And she said, "I'm not mean I just don't trust you with the pretty blue."
.............Ya, I know right, stupid. Well I thought about it that night as I wen to sleep and realized that we were fighting over duck tape!!!
So I went up to her and said, "we were fighting over something silly, do you want to come over today after school?"
And she said, "Sure, I was a bit silly myself."
And that was that. No more. See what a little apology can do? I think that no matter what you were fighting about you should be the first to step up to the plate and be the mature one!
'Cause the old saying is true, "You don't know what you've got until it's gone!!!"
Quote of the day: "A best friend is a sister that destiny forgot to give you!"

The New "Thing"
Hey Blogreaders! TOD here with a new topic for you today!
Trends. Fads. Very simple words yet as threatening as a gun. You have 2 choices when you here these words; you can ignore the new trend, after all you are your own person. Or you can chose to follow it. The choice depends obviously on the fad.
For example, say a girl in your grade decides to wear a bald cap to school one day, she gets her friends in on it too. So the next day you see them with no hair, do you:
I personally would chose A. As long as I have my friends by my side, nothing could go wrong. Some of you would chose B though....not to lose readers or anything but shame shame shame!!!
Another example could be if a new girl comes to your school all the way from Paris, France. Say she is wearing a beret in her hair, the Populars have taken her under their wing. They tell her that they just love her style and ask to borrow some berets for them to wear. She probably says yes because the next day, half the student body is walking around with the french hat on their head! Do you:
B) Announce loudly that you have one at home that you got on your trip to France this summer and didn't wear it because it was so dirty from all the use. Maybe your mom will spare some change to go get you one right after school!
That's A again for me. And just so you know, those of you who chose B,what you are doing is lying (scary music)!
If you are the kind of person who follows trends, don't let me change you! Your true blue friends probably like you just the way you are!
This is TOD signing out!!!
Adieu! (goodbye in the new girl's lingo!)

A) Keep your ponytail in and your chin held high, at least you have some dignity.
B) Borrow your best friend's hat and hide your hair in it, it will have to do until you get home and rush your mom to the store!

A) Not flinch when you see the idea of fashion at your school, just keep walking. After all, this is America, not Paris.
