Brisingr

I just finished reading the third book in the Inheritance Cycle and 11:30 at night. I got the book yesterday afternoon and haven't really put it down yet. Last night I read myself to sleep. I've been reading non stop and finished the 748 page book. I waited for a week to get the book since it came out and was relieved to see it come through the mail. I thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait for the fourth (the final) book to come out! Well night, if my mom reads at what time I posted this on a school night, she'll skin me alive!

Sailing

Last Saturday, I went sailing. An old bishop in our ward asked if the teachers would want to be a crew for his boat. He was invited to enter into a sailboat race to dedicate a new wharf. It was tons of fun. I got a little nervous when the boat tilts, but with time, I'm sure I'll get used to it. Tomorrow, since there is no school (Professional Day), he asked if we wanted to go sailing again. We of course said yes. Soooooo, tomorrow, if the wind is good and I can get a ride, I'll be sailing for fun. He also said that there are weekly sailboat races and we might start doing those.

How the year is goin

The 4 weeks I have been in school has been pretty fun. I've met a lot of new friends and regained friends (people who weren't in any of my classes last year.) I haven't had a lot of homework. Out of my seven classes, only three really give homework. They are English, Geometry, and Biology. English is about two to three times a week, Geometry is everyday including weekends, and Biology is about two to three times a week. Geometry takes the longest, but it's not that bad. I've also been helping Grandpa and that's been a lot of fun. Even though the year so far is fun, I have to agree with Aunt Lora, I can't wait till the summer!
