Huckleberry Finn?

So, in my English class we are reading Huckleberry Finn I absolutely love this book, so far so good. Well in class we have to have something called "Circle Talk" when our teacher asks questions and we have to answer, state a quote that backs it up, and tie it all together. Well she was on the third question, usually there is only about five questions asked, and I had yet to answer. Pressure was on, cause I needed the grade. So I go in for the kill. The questions was, "Who is the wisest character in the book thus far?" So, I answer, "Jim is the wisest character thus far because he knows how to stay away from attention unlike..." At this point, I begin talking about Huck Finn. But instead of saying 'Huck Finn' I get the H in Huck and the F in Finn mixed up..causing me to basically cuss in class. My first thought was .."ohhhhhh mmmmmmy goshhh" and the whole class burst into laughter. I won't be living this event down for quite a while. It was hilarious, so I thought I'd document it here.

SUMMER?

I cannot wait till summer, I've decided. I'm so anxious to get out of this place! On the bright side, I haven't been in class very much last week nor this week due to all of the end of instruction tests we've been taking. I'm working on plans for this summer. I know for sure I'm going to visit my sister in June, which I'm totally stoked about because I've never been to the east coast, one of my friends is probably coming to town in July, and hanging out with everyone here in between all that! I'm also trying to get a job, which I have been trying the last few months..but still no stinkin' luck. It's kind of frustrating when you are constantly trying and things don't work out. But it will! I have faith. I'm also planning on going to a bunch of shows around here this summer, like in Joplin and such. But next summer, I really want to go to Warped Tour in Kansas City or some sort of musical festival. I'm excited. Mom is coming home from Chicage on Friday I think. It's about time, she's been gone for almost 3 weeks now because she has to go to a Cancer Center there to get treatment. Only four more long, hard weeks..then freedom at last.
