Beatles.

Vacay

Summer vacation has been going very well so far. I have been to the art museum here in Philly and it is really nice. I am volunteering at the local library every Monday and Tuesday working with the kids. It is a lot of fun.

Freaky Friday

The Freaky Friday most people right now are familiar with is the newest version with the mom played by Jamie Lee Curtis that has a dysfunctional family. Right now, I would like to focus on the older version directed by Gary Nelson. The story was originally written by Mary Rodgers who also wrote the screenplay. It was released January 21, 1977 by Disney. It is a great family comedy about a mother and daughter switching not only roles, but bodies! In this movie, and mother and daughter find their personalities switched one Friday and our forced to live each other's lives. It is a hilarious way to show family ties and unconditional love. The newer version has a harder plot with the mother's wedding rehearsal and the daughter's concert colliding into the same day- even the same hour. The mother and daughter chose that day to reconnect and end up switching back to their own bodies. The older version was nominated for 3 Golden Globes! I saw it and fell head over heels in love with it.

Nothing new to report, folks.
I am spending the night at a friend's house.
i have'nt gotten much work done today. Hopefully I will tonight though if Joanna doesnt mind leaving a lamp on or something.

What I learned today

So today I did a huge amount of school work. When I got sick of history since I have been doing history ALOT lately, I did TA work. I graded papers and checked in books and things like that. Of course the teachers were VERY appreciative. I did the last english essay today, too. I had been working on it for at least 3 weeks, and I told the sub that today and she came over and explained the question to me. It asked how the western movement influenced the Romantic Tradition. She explained (rather well) that the east was a place where everything was structured and controlled. When people started to move west, more was allowed. The laws were less strict, and thus they had gun fights, etc. Well, people from the west started writing more of what they felt since it was being less frowned upon than it would have if they were still in the East. They wrote about emotions and things like that. The Romantic Tradition was when writings that expressed the emotions was the norm. So, the people moving to the west, or the Western Movement helped bring along the Romantic Tradition. Well, my essay was much better than what I just told you guys, but that is pretty much the point of the essay. I should get a pretty good grade on it. Right now my American Literature 1 overall grade is a b- it should get better or stay the same since I've been doing pretty good lately in english. Also, I am finished in english now.
I finished business math months ago, but I am redoing my lowest grades so I can bring my grade up higher. Then, I am redoing things in Geometry to pull those grades up higher, although I finished that last week. AND, I have just finished english, but I dont know if I need to correct anything or not. I should finish history thursday or monday.
I only have 1 math test to redo. I have 5 bussiness math assignments to redo (5 minutes each) and I have 3 history packets left, and 5 or 6 history tests to do.

Essay #3

Okay, I am having a little bit of a hard time with this essay and it is due by the fifteenth.

How did the frontier and the western movement of peoples help the development of the Romantic tradition?
Paragraph 1 has to have 3 "analysis"s. After that, there is a paragraph explaining each "analysis", then the closing paragraph.
If you know the answer to the question, it would be nice if someone could explain it to me.
When I have the essay done, I will run it by you guys in case you want to read it.

My book meme 2

If you do not know what a book meme is, visit my other blog to find out, as I have another one there.
There are only 120 pages in this, so I am choosing somewhere right in the middle.

My book meme: Grease (the script) by paramount
Page:60
Sandy Between meetings, parties and cheerleader practice, I hardly have any time to do my homework.
Danny Well, you're just naturally smart, I guess.
Sandy It does help.
*Danny looks at her for a moment. She smiles blithely giving him no encouragement, looking lovely and knowing it.

Relaxing

I know I promised more articles, but so far, I'm way too bushed. I will get to it eventually, but the rest of you need to go to my other blog too. lifeandtimesofaims.blogspot.com

break

I know I have been taking a break, but I have kind of enjoyed it. My mom has been on the computer alot, and when I get on, my blogs arent always my first priority. Anyway, tomorrow I'll post another article, but today I just wanted to let you know that I would appreciate ideas from you guys. Comments are encouraged. I am on spring break and having a great time, but I miss my friends.

hmmmm.....

So today, I was going to write a paragraph or two about Wonder Woman. However, my darling sister says that my blog is boring since I dont talk about me. So, just this once, I am going to tell you why I like writing about things like Wonder Woman.
I used to just tell people that I like the seventies. I had to stop saying that though, because most people thought that I just liked the artificial 70's because I "didnt really know what it was like". Well, I know that there was some pretty bad stuff going on in the 70's, like drugs. However, the 60's and 70's, and even the 80's are years that gave birth to some really wonderful song artists and tv shows. The Partridge Family is one of those. It is a little bit fake, but it shows what the ideal life (to me) would have been like. There was great music, lessons to be learned, and hilarious situations.
So, I would have to say that I like writing about things like the Beatles, and Wonder Woman, because I like hearing about things that I like. The time I spend every day writing about things I enjoy is time that I am not stressed out about school work, cleaning the house, or other problems. It gives me time to relax before I tackle things I need to get done.
For the rest of you that still think my blog is boring, I just want to say that blogging is more fun to me this way, and it is the only reason I still blog. I am getting sick of always writing about how my day is going, and I am not always interested in hearing about somebody else's life that just happens to be just like mine. It's not like I dont want to hear how my sister's husband is doing, etc, it's just that I want to read about something outside of our everday lives.

Yours, mine and ours.

Yours, mine and ours in a 1968 movie directed by Melville Shavelson, with Henry Fona, Licille Ball, and Van Johnson. Before it was released, it had three other workin titles: The Beardsley Story, Full House, and His, Hers, and Theirs. It is based on the story of Frank and Helen Beardsley, although Desilu Production bought the rights to the story long before Helen's autobiography, Who gets the drumstick? was released to bookstores. Screenwriters took the opportunity to write in several classic I Love Lucy- styled stunts that in most cases have no basis in the actual lives of the Beardsley family, before Melville Shavelson and Mort Lachman took over primary writing duties. However, it enjoyed great commercial success, and even the Beardsley's loved it, though Frank would say that the version in the film was not exactly true. This film was later remade in 2005 with actors Dennis Quaid and Renee Russo as Frank and Helen Beardsley.

The Rock 'n Roll Express

The Rock n Roll Express was a professional wrestling tag team comprised of Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson that was popular in the eighties. It was formed in 1983 in Memphis. Ricky and Robert were origianlly paired together as an alternative to the popular team of Steve Keirn and Stan Lane, The Fabulous Ones, when they couldnt wrestle in certain towns. The gimmick of The Rock n Roll Express was a couple of high flying wrestlers who loved glam metal music, as it was a popular genre of muisc at the time. They soon made their way to mid-south wrestling where they started a legendary feud with the Midnight Express that would carry on into the NWA.

Adam-12

Adam-12 was a television show that ran from 1968 to 1975 on NBC. The show was centered around the daily activities of a pair of Los Angeles police officers, Pete Malloy (played by Martin Milner) and Jim Reed (Kent McCord). It included Sergeant William "Mac" MacDonald (played by William Boyett). The show was produced by Jack Webb, who also helped create Dragnet and Emergency!. The series was considered a spin-off of Webb's Dragnet 1967, and the Reed and Malloy characters appeared on episodes of the parent program.
The officers worked out of the Central Division of the LAPD. The show used situations from realy LAPD case files. . The title of the show is derived from the radio car unit number of the officers, 1(for Central Division, though Rampart Division was actually used as the location), A(dam) to designate it as a two man patrol, and 12 to designate their patrol area.
As with Dragnet, Adam-12 episodes were based on incidents in the actual case files from the LAPD. At the end of each episode the "names have been changed..." statement was shown (but not narrated) at the start of the ending credits.
