A 30 Day Blogging Thing: Day Six

Every day's about the same. Mom and Dad keep telling me to get up at about 7:30 for about 10 or 15 minutes. I go down to eat breakfast, then clean up my room, get dressed, and feed the rabbit.

School's after that. Because of TPS and the fact that Dad's teaching me some subjects, and he has a schedule that has to be stuck to, we actually have a schedule. :P I have his subjects every weekday except Thursday. Mom's subjects are done every day.

Today I have German class in the morning, and Justin tutors math in the evening. Tests are normally done today, too...At the last minute. :P

A 30 Day Blogging Thing: Day Five

Love: A profoundly tender affection to something else.

A 30 Day Blogging Thing: Day Four

We like simple food, especially if it feeds everybody for 1 dollar or less. A lot of it's British, too.

Last night, we had Egg in Hole, fried potatoes, and fruit.

Egg in Hole is a piece of bread with a hole in the middle of it. You crack an egg into the hole and let it fry.

Day Three: Your Parents

Dad likes sausage, cheese, beer, debating theology, and teaching. He's a Latin, Greek, and vocabulary teacher online, and an ordained pastor in the American Association of Lutheran Churches.

Mom likes blue and white china, Jane Austen, homemaking, and music. She teaches music history and music theory online, and used to teach piano and flute.

Both of them lived in Missouri until Dad got a job in the Appalachian mountains that wasn't a coal-mining job. They both worked at a school. That's where Lizzie went until 6th grade.

Now it's normal to hear "Roma in Italia est. Italia in Europa est. Eygyptus in Europe non est. Egyptus in Africa sunt." and "Vivaldi was nicknamed the Red Priest, and sometimes, during a mass, he would get an idea for a piece of music and wander off to write it." It feels weird when no one's teaching.

A 30 Day Blogging Thing: Day Two

I accidently skipped Day Two. Haha. Here it is.

Day Two: Your First Love

Haven't ever had one. :P

A 30 Day Blogging Thing: Day One

Ruth found this, so I'm going to do it, too. (Some of the topics won't be very full. :P )

Introduce Yourself

I have brown hair, eyes that change colours, and am the shortest person in the family (barely; I'm catching up with Mom :P ).

Books, writing, music, movies, sewing, cleaning, school, and talking to friends are all fun things to do. Romance is disgusting, and explosions are cool. I don't like lighting matches, but want to make napalm. That doesn't go well together. :P Candles are good, too. I got a long-handled lighter thing because matches are scary.

I have a mom, dad, sister (Lizzie), brother-in-law (Justin) cat (Felix), and rabbit (Velvet; anybody want her?).

Christmas

This year was the first year that we've had Christmas at home. Lizzie and Justin came to visit, and Mom bought fancy British cheese. (Stilton is gross. It tastes the way it smells.)

We went to the churches Dad pastors at on Christmas Eve. They weren't midnight services, which was really nice because the churches are about two hours away. :P

In the morning, Mom got a waffle iron, so made waffles. Lizzie and I got stockings for Mom and Dad.

I got pictures of everybody next to the Christmas tree.
