Happy Halloween!

It’s Halloween and no I’m not going trick or treating. This week I’ve been busy. I had various people coming to mine on different days. Becky who helps with the school newspaper came on Thursday and Vicky Lee and Jack on Friday. We have now got the wristbands for the school newspaper as you can probably see from the picture I put in. It’s also been Gran’s Birthday this week so happy birthday Gran (again). We went to a party for her last night and didn’t get back and asleep until about one in the morning. It was Dennis’s driving experience today and he got to drive a Ferrari as well as other cars. On Thursday Becky gave me a fake lizard which is currently lying on the top of my computer monitor and I've got a picture as well. I will put all the pictures at the bottom.

I’m also writing a bit for itsnotwhoiam.com which is a website about Sara Elizabeth Clark. She is a young person about my age who also has epilepsy and she does this website to raise awareness. I’m writing a bit for the “This is who I am” section of the site. I will keep you updated on that but tomorrow it’s back to school, and we move into the new building completely. I’ll have to get used to a new time table. Only new rooms though. I was talking to my friend called Kirsty the other day and she is doing a number of bike rides in a couple of months to get up to 1000 miles and it’s for charity. She is raising money for neurofibromatosis which she has. As soon as I can access the link for her sponsor page I will put it up if anyone wants to sponsor her.

Here are the couple of pictures of the things I said about. By the way we named the toy lizard Lenny so he’s Lenny the lizard.

Buzzzzzz!

This week I have finally managed to get the first meetings of The Buzz board members together but still haven’t had a meeting with them all. I have had a meeting with a couple of the boys and a couple of the girls but not everyone. My stand in co-editor, Jason did have a meeting where most of the writers came but we are still tracking down a few of them. I have now organized to have a few meetings online so that I can still keep up to date. Only because I have Fairtrade meetings on Tuesdays and that's when everyone thinks we are meeting up.

I have managed to get a guest blogging opportunity for Pied Magazine. There was some confusion over whether I wanted to write for them or whether I was just guest blogging but i have now sorted that out and I’m going to write the article over the weekend. Feel free to have a look at their website. I've also got the photo for this week of my Year 11 in pictures. I must admit that I forgot to do it and it’s one I did at home but it’s still to do with school. I will put it at the bottom of the post.

I seem to have quite a busy December according to school work. I have exams and also I have to run a cake stall every break time the week before the exams. It’s part of our ASDAN project and the money goes to charity. We have to make them as well. Oh well. Anyway here is my picture for this week. It’s just a picture of the agenda I wrote down and it’s boring but it will have to do. I’m off to bed now. Night Night.

That picture’s out of focus. That’s Better

I haven’t done a blog post for a while but yesterday I went to see another play. This time it was a comedy called Out of focus. Hence the play on words in the blog post title.  I was supposed to have a meeting for The Buzz but my co-editor ended up in hospital. I haven’t heard much since but have asked one of the writers to help me get an issue together. I am beginning to doubt that we will get a mid October issue out though. I'm getting somewhere with the spoof album cover though. Here it is. As I don’t have one for this week this can also be my picture for year 11 in pictures.

I didn’t do a picture for the previous week either but I have used one I took for a school project. Here it is.

Short blog today but I hadn’t had the internet for half of the time so I couldn’t do some of it. I hope I get an issue published for The Buzz. Anyway bye for now.
