Grammatical Sin

Whoops. I feel horrid. I just made a grammatical sin in the last post. Let me redeem myself:
I said “there’s there’s a lot of people” when I should have said “there are a lot of people.”
Thank you.
Have a joyous, grammatical-sin-free day.

Humblebee

The only positive word I could think of that would fit into the rhyme of “bumble” and then add on “bee” was humble. So I’ve decided to call this post “humblebee” even though there’s hardly anything humble about it. I’m going to make a list of things that make me un-grumble today. Then I’ll be [...]

Grumblebee

I’m going to grumble about a few things, and then I’ll be done grumbling for the day.

Braces. Braces are one of the most horrific and sadistic things that adults inflict upon teenagers. Only possibly the education system exceeds it.
There’s a difference between PCI Express slots and AGP slots. There’s also a difference between the two [...]

Julie is still my one true love dog. She’s full o’ beans. Here she lay upon the floor serenely sleeping with the occasional twitch fit. She’s always here for me when I need her. Of course, she does tend to escape the premises of our yard and go on long visits around West Jordan City, [...]

‘Twas no better than the first, except perhaps again lunch was quite joyous. Take Ten was a refreshing break, even though it is now filled with… several sophomores on the maturity level of a seventh grader… they’ll soon grow out of it. Film Making was interesting, and has the potential to be a very good [...]

I have a generous feeling come about me, so before it leaves, I will share another passage of The Imaginations. I think I’ll hurry and make some brownies for Mr. Rauch’s family or something (as his wife has their baby… Wednesday, I believe).\
 
“Well, to begin, I suppose I must tell you just what the Dream [...]

Welcome back to another fun-filled year at WJHS. The first day of school… the summer freedom seems to vanish in the haze. Already homework is piled upon us. Either despair or joy seems to fill the air. The harmonious peace of a day is shattered, to be mended, to be shattered to be mended… I [...]

Well, after three hours and 1011 words, I have finally completed my pointless essay. I’ll bet you anything that the teacher is going to say, “Your sentence structure is too confusing. You need to revise it and make it simpler.” That’s just another way of saying, “I’m too stupid to understand your writing. Since you [...]

Hello, again. Did you know that no one writes essays for a living? I know of many people who write books for a living. I know of even more who write articles for a living. As for essays, can you name one? Just one. If you can name one, I can guarantee that I’m never [...]

Ah, the joys of school. It’s almost here. Those of us who enrolled in Honors English are scrambling to finish our summer reading assignments and write the five-page essays due on the first day of school. But then—you have to wonder—just what is the point of the summer reading assignment? The essay is, of course, [...]

It has come to my immediate attention that there are many myths hovering around about the building known as West Jordan Middle School. Seeing as how I have spent many hours working there and have visited the areas and seen the things that these myths are about, I will explain them:
 
Bomb Shelter:
The “bomb shelter” is [...]

Have you ever wanted to see inside someone’s Imagination? Me, too.
I’m writing a story called “The Imaginations,” and it’s pretty exciting. I’ll be rich. Money will be coming out of my nostrils, I’ll be so rich. Cologne.
I would like to include some vicarious clips from my story here. Enjoy. Maybe I’ll give you a [...]

Yellowed Men

When we become physically insane, the nervous system of our lower left bodies becomes corrupt and lists the following message:
ERROR 137: Welcome to the Land of Sniff. Please continue to risk further damage to your system.
It is then when we must persevere and swear an oath to destroy the Yellowed Golgi Bodies of the Watchful [...]

Hum. I’m trying to see if Word’s Blog function will upload pictures… let’s see:

Ah, the joys of school. Love and loss. Annoyances roam freely. Strange men in tight pants waddle past—or was that a girl? You can never tell these days. One thing we all love is homework. Yippee. Honestly, I used to enjoy English Homework. That was until tenth grade English. English became the dreaded doctorate. This [...]
