Tuesday

hi!
i know it's been a really long time since i last posted, but i feel like blogging right now so i will

today was an interesting day. 

It started at about 7:20 in the morning, when i woke up. I got up and talked to my mom for a bit, then got dressed and took my dog, Gustav, out on a walk. After that I came home and changed my clothes for this morning exercise thing we decided we were gonna do

I changed into these spandex legging things and a pink shirt, and i think i looked pretty sporty(lol)
so while my mom and Itai(my little brother) were getting ready I ate a banana with peanut butter, which is one of my favorite snacks of all time. My family usually gets this really good roasted peanut butter from the monteray market, which i recommend. After the banana my mom and brother were ready, so I put on some music and we did jumping jacks for a while. One thing that always confuses me: how do your arms and legs synchronize? do your arms go up when your legs are together, or when your legs are apart? it's very annoying. Me and Itai were arguing about it, but then we stopped doing jumping jacks, so it was all ok. 



we did a workout/yoga for about an hour. By 9 we were eating breakfast(which was yogurt with jam and fruit-delicious) and doing some english. My brother and I did a test in english, which we both aced. I'm proud of us

After that it was time to leave for math tutoring, so we went to the public library to wait for our tutor, whose name is Jason. He had a PHD in math, and is pretty nice(although he should really stop biting his nails) 
I had math for 1:30 hours, and Itai had it for and hour. After that we went to out science olympiad meeting, which was okay. I got kind of sabotaged by my coach.
so me and our coaches daughter, tangerine(it's a funny name, i know) both want to do the same event. So our coach preposed that we do a test to see which one of us was better at the event. So she said she'd give us some warning, but she didn't(not for me, anyways) and gave us the test today. I, of course, not having studied, failed it. So she proved that her daughter was better. what a female dog(i won't use the actual word in case it offends someone)

anyways after that i had choir, which was actually really fun today. Me and this girl Demitria made this really funny joke and laughed a ton, which made me feel a lot better. Even though i don't know Demitria very well yet, i had fun.

then i came home and watched the latest moden family episode. Now i'm blogging.

bye!

Another Flu-ish Friday

hi there!
today was another day that was kind of tainted with the flu. This time neither me nor Itai have it. My mom had the flu today, and it was annoying

it meant that we couldn't do any lessons, and my brother and I had a hard time staying motivated

I did do some science olympiad work. I can't believe it's in only 2 weeks!

I'm also going to Washington D.C in a few weeks-I won't be able to post then because i won't have access to a computer

once i finish this post, I'm gonna work on my creative writing story for a bit

I also wanted to share an artsy photo that my friend Safara took of me

artsy picture of me
Hope you like the artsy picture! comment if i should post more artsy pictures
