Today was very chaotic.
I woke up in the morning, thinking that today was going to be very boring. But I was wrong. A couple of minutes after I woke up, my mom told me that my sister now had a fever. She had thrown up last night when I was sleeping. ( I am so glad that I missed that. I would of had nightmares about throw up for weeks. GROSS!) When I went downstairs, my grandma asked me if I had heard that my sister had a fever. It seemed that I was the only person that didn't know about the BIG news that happened last night. ( This usually happens. I end up being that last person to know about any news. For example, when my family and friends were going to throw a big birthday party for a friend, I was the final person in the house to know about it. My own sister, who is three years old, knew about it before I did. She kept singing the "Happy Birthday" song even after the party! It was pretty funny.) After this, I went to school, went through all my classes, found out that I didn't make the auditions for the play,( I ended up being one of the "technical" people. My friend actually made it. I was really surprised! Of course I was happy for her, but I was a little disappointed with myself. Oh well.) and I came back home, fully loaded with homework. When it was time to check my sister's temperature, the thermometer said that my sister was a whopping 104.7 degrees! So from 5:30 to 6:00, my grandparents and I were putting ice packs and cold towels on my sister. My mom came home soon after and called the doctor. When the doctor called, my mom was upstairs. Just as I was about to run up the stairs, my mother's cell phone started to ring. So I grabbed that and headed upstairs. Have you ever had to talk to two people on two different phones at the same time? Well, that is exactly what I did. It was so confusing! My sister had just finished a bath and my mom was trying and succeeding on putting clothes on her and talking to her doctor. Now that this confusing day is almost over, I just have to finish my English homework. Oh goody! I can't wait. (NOT)

Beginning of Blogging
Today, (January 20, 2008, which happens to be my friend's B-day) is the day that I start writing, for FUN! (Is that even possible?!) It just so happens that my father was finishing one of his blogs and I happened to look at everything he had written. There was one where my mother had broken the "weight barrier"(Apparently, that is the limit for the weight of my mom, which usually increases but rarely decreases. Sorry Mom) I remember laughing about it for a really long time and for good reason. It was HILARIOUS!
Anyways, this day is supposed to be torture because I usually don't like to write but I have actually written a lot. (For me, this is a lot.) And, I seem to enjoy writing this. In school, there are rules about writing that I rarely break but always end up getting a B or an A-, but never an A+. Here are the rules.
When I was getting my URL and my title for my blog, I seemed to be doing everything wrong. When my mom and I thought of something which wasn't THAT bad, it would be brought down by the ultimate ruler, the computer. Everything I put in and crossed my fingers for, the computer ends up telling me that someone else has that already! (Tip: in the future, never cross your fingers for good luck. Before I thought crossing one finger was good luck, but then it was two fingers, and then three fingers, and finally it was to cross everything that you can, including your toes, hands, arms, and legs. I tried that and I just fell over. After that, I just gave up on it.) It was so frustrating! Then we typed in something and we finally made it. Sometimes I wish that humans never knew about technology, but then I would think about life without T.V.s and I pods. and cars and even toilets. (GROSS! is the word that describes life without toilets. Just imagine. On the other hand, don't imagine!) Us humans would probably not be able to survive without technology. I know I couldn't and I wouldn't!
This is the beginning of blogging for me and I think I did pretty well, but I wonder what my English teacher would say. . .

In school, there are rules about writing that I rarely break but always end up getting a B or an A-, but never an A+. Here are the rules.
- Always use proper grammar and spelling
- Use AMAZING word choice so the readers DON'T fall asleep (that ends up happening to me sometimes)
- Keep your piece organized so your beginning paragraph isn't at the end and your reasons for comparing something isn't in the wrong paragraph and you get the main idea.
