Hi everyone!!!!
This week in World Geography we started a new unit. We are learning about India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Maldives and three other countries. This region has the Himalayan Mountains.\, which include the highest mountains of the world. We did a packet to learn more about Mt. Everst, and we are going to "climb Mt. Everst" on Monday.
This weekend was "Rewind" Anderson Trojan Belles Spring Show, in which I performed as a Newbie Belle. I had lots of fun and I cannot wait untill I am a Baby Belle next year! Also this weekend was my little sister's First Communion. The First Communion is one of the seven sacraments that we as Catholics recieve.

HI Everyone!
This week in world geography we had a Unit Test over Unit 7 which was Southwest Asia. I got 95 (out of 100) which is good. I am happy with my grade in World Geograhy. It is a very fun class. Also we got assigned maps for our next Unit which is about South Asia (India and that area). I need to get those started because they are due Wednesday! Also we are going to have a class debate type thing about whether arranged marrigages are good or bad. They assigned us how we would debate, and I am going to be for it. I still have mixed feelings about whether I am truely against it or not. There are so many aspects of it, and since it is not a common thing in my religion I guess that really shouldn't have say in it.
My week is going to so busy! The Trojan Belles are my school's dance team and since I am a Newbie (a fancy name for the girls who just made the team in March) I will perform one dance in their Spring Show. It is a show with many many dances of all types. Us Newbies will perform a jazz dance. Because of this on Monday I will have to stay after school to have a technical rehearsal, and on Wednesday I have to stay after school for a Dress rehearsal, and then on Thursday and Friday I will stay after school for the real show. There will also be a show on Saturday. I am really looking forward to performing!
Got to go do my Homework!

Hello!!!!
This week in World Geography we saw a movie about taboos of different cultures. It showed people in Louisiana who have cock fights (roosters fighting) for entertainment, and bull fights in Mexico, where the matador has to kill the bull, and a group of people in Bolivia that believe that human blood helps their crops grow, so they go to a city square and have fist fights until they bleed. To me this was very weird, but I know that in their cultures it is totally normal, and to them things that we do are weird. Also we started talking about oil and water problems in Iraq. On Monday we will have a discussion, where we will try to make a peace treaty between the three ethnic groups of Iraq.
In my life right now I am very busy! I have rehearsals for the Belles Spring Show, and ballet class, where we are also working a piece for our end of the year recital. I love dance, and I am very happy with what I am doing. Yesterday night I went over to my friends house for a sleepover. She said that it was nothing special, and that she just decided to have a sleepover, but when I got there I had a HUGE surprise. My friend, who over the summer moved to Colorado was there! She was hiding in a closet, and when I went into the room she jumped out and scared me! I screamed very loudly, and everyone else was laughing! We had a very good time, but she is going back to Colorado tomorrow. I wish she could stay because I miss her!
