today was the first day that i ate dinner while doing history homework.

i'm sure i'll do that again. but today it was because i went to the Big E.

Abby and I are going to have a fall/winter/whenever-we-get-around-to-it party. and it is exactly what it sounds like. we have no idea what it is going to be like other than it's going to be a party and we are going to host it and invite whoever we want. so if you want to come to this party you better be nice to us. because this party is going to be awesome once we figure out what this party is going to be. other than awesome because that's obvious.

today when we were driving home there was one patch of sky that was all lit up from the stadium lights from the soccer game. it was the coolest thing ever. i wish i was there watching it, even though it was raining. maybe Abby and I can go sometime, or Dana and I. Dana can drive people in less than three weeks! wooohooo! and then at one point when we were driving back we could see the tops of the lights over the tree line and that was so awesome. if i was thinking i would have taken a picture of it but i wasn't thinking. now i'm going to go look up when the next home game is. yeah i'm like that. okay they have home games Friday October 8th vs. Monson High School and Friday October 15th vs. Holyoke High School and Monday October 18th vs. Hopkins Academy and Thursday October 21st vs. Belchertown High School and Tuesday October 26th vs. South Hadley High School. that's the boys. i am liking the two Friday games but I would like to go to the Monday one verses Hopkins because I believe my old babygroup buddy is from Hopkins and he plays soccer so he may be there. anyways, Abby free any of those days? I know you work a lot of Fridays. anyways let's move on to the next subject.

the Big E. the best parts: quick change! the group Quick Change from America's Got Talent was at the Big E! They were in the circus! we didn't know that when we went and it was soooo awesome! I was so shocked they were there. the guy was the ring master for the day but i didn't recognize him until i saw him next to his wife. they were the same outfits they used on the show but it still so cool. and seeing them there as a surprise i mean so awesome! and another wonderful part was the 10 day old baby Alpaca. oh my goodness. he would go over and loving to his mother then run around his little pen. he was so adorable. i want one. and that's all that sticks on in my mind right now. so there you go.

OUR DEBATE TEAM WON! i'm very happy. it's not like i would have been devastated if we lost because i didn't really care but it feels good to say that we won. and we were down a member. but still that was awesome. and my opening went so well and Mr. Dewitt even called me out on how good it was. ahh. it was wonderful. i even took up a rebuttle which wasn't the greatest but it went fine. and that was fabulous. but i'm glad we won or else i would have felt bad that i didn't do enough. but apparently i did because my opening was much better than the other side. but i'm happy.

and just in case you were wondering my team consisted of, and will consist of for the next debate when we will be defending slavery: Cindy Morton, Steven Cowley, Dimitri Rizos, and Emily Larkin, who wasn't here today. Dimitri was wonderful during his argument. He had written on a peace of paper in red and blue the word "FREEDOM" and then during his argument he tore it in half and crumpled it in a ball showing on Britain had destroyed our freedom. it even made Mr. Dewitt laugh. Dimitri is one of those guys that i would like to talk to and know better but i probably never will (but i do realize he is on the varsity soccer team, yepyep) but hey AP may give me a chance to get to know all of those people in that class better. it's only September you know.

overall i had a pretty good day. yeah i'm happy with that. especially for a Monday. i'm smiling now. but now it's time to go to sleep so i can have another wonderful day tomorrow.
