O.U. T.

It's a season for celebrating. Finally, the school year is OVER, or has been over for a couple of days so far. No more homework, a dream come true! (Especially math homework... GAG) I can't help laughing at my older brother who is still in school. Just a quick thanks to all my

peeps who survived seventh grade with me! Catch you all next YEAR!

During Recess

Sleeping with the Monkeys

Just a couple of weeks ago, my class had the honor of spending the night at the St. Louis Zoo! I must say, even
though we practically had to bunk with the monkeys, it turned out to be a pretty amazing experience. I left with some crazy bed hair, but I also left with a better understanding of what it means to be a zoo keeper. Plus, I got to see all the cute sleeping animals (that doesn't include the yucky African boars). The apes were the funnest animals to watch, they seemed to be playing tag with each other when we were there, but while my friends and I were observing them, one of them came right up to the glass and banged the heck out of it. I was so scared that it would break out I screamed and almost ran over the people behind me. I am not, I repeat, I am not ever going to stand so close to those baboons!

Global Warming

Me and my friend were researching about global warming for a science fair project (we were thinking of making our project on why global warming isn't true). While we were surfing the web, I found this picture. As the years and century's go by, people are becoming "hotter" and "hotter".

Dear Reader,

If your wondering why I decided to write and create this blog, I really can't tell you. I was reading over my cousin's blog, and after wondering in awe how she managed to make such a humorous, and lavished blog, I decided I wanted to learn how to do it. Now let me tell you, I'm not the greatest at figuring stuff out on my own so I had to eventually email my cousin to ask her for all her secrets, so if you think I'm a genius for all the cool gadgets I have on here, think again. I'm only coping most of her ideas. Enjoy!

Porto Rico

Last Spring Vacation, the Cheney Clan embarked on a new adventure to Porto Rico. (This was all my mom's idea!) Anyway, there we were, all cramped together on one tiny little island (okay, so what! Maybe there were several different islands and none were too too tiny). But it was still cramped in our tiny little hotel room. I had to either sleep on the lumpy old couch or sleep with LeAnn. I chose the couch on account that LeAnn snores like a train wreck (no offense LeAnn). In the end though, I got Andrew to sleep on the couch and I got to share a bed with my mom. Well, I doubt you care where I slept as long as I got to go on some fancy vacation. We did all the usual things you do on vacation, eat out, shop, site seeing, shop some more. I'm not sure I liked the shoping that much though (I know, gasp!) you have to hear me out first. My mom made me go into over like a 100 different little trinket stores, all which were lined up one right after another. Half of those stores contained what I consider junk, but oh no, all the grown-ups had to look at each item. There were so many shops, Nathan would start crying whenever someone wanted to go into a store. Finally we were all so sick of shoping (even LeAnn was too tired to go into any store) no one would dare to even look into a shop window. But Grandpa Derr ruined it when he had to go buy a huge container of Hydrogen Poroxide, which took him an hour to purchase. I mean who needs a huge bottle of Hydrogen Poroxide while on vacation. I gave him 2 sarcastic thumbs up and grimance. All ended well though, we're still alive aren't we? P.S. Porto Rico has beautiful beaches.
