Bones (the television show) is like a Cell apparently

I've been M.I.A. from this blog for awhile. Sorry about that! So, here is the obligatory catch-up blog post.

Last week I saw The Whomping Willows and Justin Finch-Fletchly in concert. That was really awesome! Matt (The Whomping Willow) and Justin were really cool people and I got two CDs, two pins, and a kazoo, so that was pretty sweet.

That's about the only interesting thing that happened last week. So I'll just move on to what happened this week.

I woke up Monday thinking that the day would be horrible because 1. it was one of the days where I have the classes I don't like and 2. it was a Monday. However, I rolled over in my bed, and grabbed my phone to check to see if I had any twitter updates or texts and my awesome friend LyTysha texted me saying "Happy Monday". That made me feel better about the day, and I ended up having a rather awesome Monday.

I don't really remember much about Tuesday, so I'll move onto Wednesday. Wednesday, along with almost every other high school in the country, we took the PSATs. It was relatively easy, and I think I did pretty well on it. I was in a good mood for some reason for the rest of the day, so it was a good day.

Onto Thursday. I had a math test which I totally aced, and that's about the only noteworthy thing about school that day. It was a good day, but then I got horrible news about the show Bones. If you don't know what Bones is, it's a show about a forensic anthropologist helping the FBI solve murders. Anyway, there aren't going to be any new episodes until NOVEMBER because of stupid baseball! It's horrible!

Oh, speaking of Bones (the show), I have to do a science project where I compare Bones (the show) to a cell. We had a choice between doing a Cell Simile (which is what I'm doing), a research paper about a biologist, or writing a story using a Cell as the setting. I, being somewhat indecisive, could not choose one at all. I didn't original want to do the simile, I had actually convinced myself to do anything BUT the simile. But then I asked my teacher what I should do, and she said compare it to Bones (because she knows I love that show). So, now for my project I get to watch episodes of Bones to find out who is like what part of a cell. That's pretty fun.

Friday, I was reminded why I took Orchestra (or dorkestra as most of us call it). Usually after a concert the teacher brings in donuts or something. We had a concert on Monday, but didn't have class Wednesday because of the PSATs. So Friday he brought in bagels and coffee from Dunkin' Donuts. It was awesome. We spent half the class (about 45 minutes) eating bagels, drinking coffee, and doing nothing. My friend Joy wanted me to make her coffee. She said she never really liked coffee, and I told her I could get her to like it. So, I made her coffee and she LOVED it! I felt accomplished.

Fast forward to last night. Normal people usually go out and do something on a Friday night, but I did not. Instead, I stayed home and watched Much Ado About Nothing. It was so good! I loved it. I might watch it again today.

Anyway, I think that about covers everything. I haven't talked to Maddy and Alex for awhile. I miss you guys!
