Hi, I'm known as Pookio around these parts.

Well...I'm doing it again. I started 8th grade this year and my second year of middle school. (joy) My favorite subject is English, (I've got a new found love for writing short stories.) My least favorite is probably history. I've alway's hated history. Is that a bad thing???

Also as someone in the guestbook reminded me to add *ahem* I am not a ditz, stupid or anywhere along those lines. It may sound like it sometimes but that's because I have this problem with getting hyper.I actually get straight A's in school and I'm in an advanced learning class called EAGLES. Ever since first grade I've been known as "the little smart girl" and I hate it. I've had one person ask me to call her when I grow up and tell her what it was like being the president of the United States. I espcially hated that. But I don't like being called ditzy or stupid either. Got that straight? I hope so.

*Do people automatically think I'm a ditz because I like Hanson? That is most definitly not true! One of my bestfriends happens to be a die hard Hanson fan and even though she's a year younger then me is the smartest person I know of in my grade. I am intitled to have an opinion (everyone is) and my opinion just happens to be that I like Hanson. Got a problem with that? Don't bug me about it.*

Also (still stuck on the ditz thing. It really got me thinking.) to you (you know who you are) you're right, I may have my head in the clouds sometimes but I can't help it if I'm a dreamer.

I have also graduated from Juniors in girl scouts! Now I'm a Cadette. I can get a chance to go to Europe or South America or Joy of all Joys, even to Australia! What a change from boring old Texas.

Have two sisters. And one brother. My sisters are annoying. Love um anyway right? And my brother is really hyper. Likes to hang off of me. (i'm oldest) He also has a ponytail. hehehehe...

Two dogs. A Shelty, CockerSpaniel mix, (Cindy) and a boxer, purebread we think.(TJ) Cindy is white and sweet and delicate. Just like a polite lady should be. TJ is fat ugly and lies around doing nothing all day. Everything you would expect something like him to do. When he walks it looks like he has a beachball swaying back and forth in his tummy.

Theater class is back again. I'm in my third year. But I did something besides class! You see there's this theater in downtown FT.Worth that they were dedicating, Bass Hall, and they were having this really big party with only rich people. Guess what? I performed in the hall and played around inside during the party as a Sprite. Along with a few friends. But it was so neat!!!

Don't say anything. I do like sports. Not a girl thing, like it anyway. My favorites are basketball, rollerblading, volleyball and hockey.

Went up to Arizona and camped out on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon and you know what? That place is awesome!!! As soon as my pictures are developed I will put them up.Oh and "hi" to Kim, Steven, David, Chris, and Hiedi. I think that's how you would spell their names.
