Fang

This is the cast for the movie that is coming out soon.

I am SO exited for the newest book in the Maximum Ride Series: Fang. He's Max's soul-mate, best friend, right-hand-man, the one who helps her lead the flock. But now, Dylan has come and he was created to be Max's soul-mate and he thinks he is. But he's not. And a message has come that Fang will be the first one to die. So, Max is juggling all this and the end of the world is coming-- she's supposed to save the world, by the way.
I am being forced to wait 15 more days. How insane is that?

Oh, sorry-- did I forget to mention that Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman, Angel and now Dylan are all 98% human and 2% bird? Yeah, and they've got wings. Yep. That's right. Oh, and this series is written by James Patterson. For a link to Max-Dan-Wiz (the Maximum Ride homepage), go to my Links to Check Out on the left.

La De Da De Da

Boredom is one of the main problems in America, currently in my house. I do not lack activities (I have plenty) I am just choosing not to do any of them.
Here is a quote about boredom: "The eyes want to see and the ears want to hear," from Robert S. Woodworth, a leading motivational theorist in the 1920s and 1930s.
Yes, Lindsey, I am bored right now. Why else would I be posting this post?
The definition:
1.

to weary by dullness, tedious repetition, unwelcome attentions, etc. Example: The long speech bored me.

–noun

2.

a dull, tiresome, or uncongenial person.

3.

a cause of ennui or petty annoyance: repetitious tasks that are a bore to do.

Earthquakes, Earthquakes, Earthquakes everywhere

January 12, 2010, Your in Port-Au-Prince. Your Hotel starts to shake violently. You Shake your head, no its impossible an earthquake hasn't happened in 200 years in Haiti. It stops as soon as it started. You grab necessary items and get out of your hotel. Things are totally destroyed outside you take out your laptop and go to usgs.gov a 7.0 earthquake has happened where you are. 12 minutes later it starts to shake again, a 6.0 aftershock.
February 27, 2010, Your in Santiago, Chile, sleeping in your hotel room. It starts to shake violently you wake up. It's an earthquake. Just as you get out of your bed and on the the floor, it stops. The power is out, you grab your cell phone, its around three a.m. You get dressed, get your bags and get out of the building. You open your laptop, a 8.8 magnitude earthquake just happened.
February 27, 2010, Your in Oklahoma. Your watching CNN about the earlier earthquake in Chile. It starts to shake, How ironic. Its an earthquake. It stops just as quick. You just had a 4.4 magnitude earthquake, a rarity.
Earthquakes are happening everywhere. It's almost amazing. It's El Nino this year, which means unusual weather. Earthquakes are not weather though. Earthquakes are when tectonic plates go under, over, or scrape against other plates. The Haiti Earthquake was when the North American Plate scraped against the Caribbean Plate. Also known as a strike slip fault or a transform boundary. The Chile Earthquake was when the Nazca Plate went Under the south American Plate. Also Known as a Reversed fault or as a Convergent boundary. The Oklahoma quake? The Earth was releasing stress. It's crazy right? Maybe the world really is ending!

Band Camp, Olympics, and Help for Chile

I am so excited for this summer. Band Camp at twin rocks is going to be so much fun. I get to ditch my normal life and go to band camp with Juliet. A few of my other friends went to band camp last year and had a blast. In Other news: We are in the lead with 34 medals in the Olympics. A U.S first, if we can hold on until sunday. And I hope you all help with the Chile Earthquake go to : http://www.freerice.com/index.php. Every Question you get right ten grains of rice go to someone who is hungry.

(P.S. this part was added by Juliet: I couldn't care less about sports.)
