Today was our two-hour math exam. We had one 13-page packet to do on most all the stuff we did throughout the year, and then another 6-page packet only on "Chapter 10," which is the most recent stuff we've been doing. Even using all the extended time, I was only able to get a little less than half of it done. Oh well! The good news is: it's all over. We have no more work in Middle School -- ever!!! :-)

After the exam, we had little 20-minute sessions of each class. In Science we cleaned up a bit after the CSP chaos, in History the whole class played hand games, and in English we reminisced about the year gone by.

In Computer Class we did pretty much nothing other than surf the internet, though the winner of the recent "business plan" project won. My team -- "T-Ned Toys" -- won! Our idea was to make action figures based on NBC's hit reality series, The Apprentice. The best part was that they talked and had certain actions associated with them! So, for example, by pressing the button on its back, you could make the Donald Trump figure might say "You're fired" and do that weird hand thing. Donald Trump action figures... what an idea. Too bad it wasn't mine... ;-)

For our last Middle School class EVER -- Spanish -- we went outside to the tennis courts and just kind of played around. In started raining a little bit at first, and then it started raining A LOT. I got pretty wet. ;-) Of course, not as wet as the 6th graders, who had a water balloon fight.

After that, my carpool & I took a little trip to the local Barnes & Nobles, which also has a Starbucks cafe. While we were there it started REALLY raining -- about 100 times worse than the worst of before -- but, fortunately, by the time we left it had subsided. I love B&N. :-) We go there so often we even know the manager! Hehehe...

Well, that's all for now. Maybe I'll update again tomorrow and go into a little more depth... or who knows, maybe not! :) Adios.
