School

Well we have like 20 days left of school now! That seems so impossible for this to actually be true. And to think the seniors will be gone in even less. This year has flown by so fast! Really we have less than that though because Freshman have a fun day and all of that, this Friday is shortened with the Talent show and plus all the other things that pop up. Summer is coming up fast, and I'm really excited for it! After all the snow we had this year I think we need a nice summer!
So has anyone heard about people being in the talent show? I know before there were always quite a few senior acts but I haven't hear much talk this year about it. I remember my 7th grade year when Layton talked about his tanning bed experience and everyone talked about it forever and it just seemed like everyone had fun with it. Then there is normally an act or two of a group of boys that try to sing, but should probably stick to football. haha. I'm hoping there are some good acts because there are people with talent but just too nervous to get up and do it, plus more acts = less class.

Fifth Grader Going For a Walk..

I've been seeing on the news lately how a fifth grader in Florida was riding her bike home from school and decided to take a walk into the woods. The girl had a case similar to autism. After her parents, family and friends, and many police and rescuers looked for four straight days, Nadia was found. Nadia was in a alligator infested swamp for four days. The guy that had found her was a church friend of her family. When he went down to find her, she was sitting in a dry patch of the swamp. King says that Nadia was very calm and matter of fact saying " I can't believe you guys rescued me!" after two hours of carrying Nadia out of the thick woods, they took Nadia straight to the hospital where she was treated for bug bites and dehydration. Other than that she was perfectly fine. many people are saying what a miracle this incident is. Nadia says that all she wanted to do was go into the woods to look at the nature and take some pictures. I think it's nice to hear that we found her, a lot of times we don't and that's the sad part of it.
