Say Cheese!


In the words of Jordan G. "Why do we pay people money to inflict pain on us?"

No idea. We have this huge social pressure that if our teeth aren't white and straight, then we are unpopular, poor, and unattractive.

They hurt. You can't take them off. You can't eat your favorite foods. And the orthodontist I have cuts my gums on a regular basis.

Whine about them here!

Out Cold

It's the time of year to catch something nasty, go home, and seemingly die. I got my dose of a virus on Tuesday and have been out of school Wed. Thurs. and Fri. It sucked. Some people like missing school. Not me. i have a ton of makeup work, plus it's not like I had fun. I've been stuffed up, had a 101-102 fever and on top of it all, my braces were recently tightened, so it is hard to eat. FUN. Boat loads of it.

A MAD CAULDRON OF FUN

The best part of being published in MAD (aside from getting recognized by millions of readers in a both nationally and internationally published magazine) is the reward that comes with it. Recently, MAD decided "if you were lucky enough to get your letter published" that you get some sort of prize. (Usually they have something to do with what's hot- when the Simpson's Movie was released, that was the prize for that month). I was lucky enough to score Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix DVD, DVD interactive game, and Wii game. I also got a Harry Potter Day calander. I also got a book entitled The Demonata Blood Beast by Darren Shan. (wierd, probably not going to read it)
Anyways I got this bundle of free stuff in the mail yesterday addressed to Jordan Hull.

A Resolution

I checked my email this morning, and I opened one from a friend (who comments on this blog regularly) and she asked me what my new year's resolution was. I realized that I hadn't made one! I want to make mine here on the blog, and I want to be held to it by 2009. If you want to do the same, go ahead, and I will hold to yours in a year.
My resolution:To read 20 books outside of school, to get 6 POW's correct in geometry (Problem of the Week, and I am required to get 5 correct, something that I barely pulled off last semester), and to run a 5K in under 24 minutes.
