When people are jerks to you or your friends do you
know what to do right then and there? Well I wrote this
article to tell you what to do.
First, what you are supposed to do is go tell a teacher.
Some people don’t want to do that, but you can. Be
careful though: if you want to make someone want to
take it to the next step and want to beat you up if you are
not already there.
So, what you can do as in a kids idea is stand up for
yourself or your friends tell them to stop and tell them
you’re not afraid of them.
Who here thinks Twilight is awesome?! I know I do!!!! Who is team
Edward or team Jacob? Edward is a vampire and Jacob is a
werewolf in the movies. I remember back in 4th and 5th grade that a
friend of mine thought that she was a werewolf!!! Ha ha ha!!!! It was
sooooo funny!!! Also, another friend thought that she was a
vampire!!! They were so stupid back then and they still think they are
a vampire and werewolves! And they both told me that every year
they have go to battle and see who wins and see who is better:
werewolves or vampires! They were stupid and still are! Any way
back to Twilight. Ok so as I said earlier Twilight came out in I think
2007 and it was a big hit. Then came out new moon and the team
Edward or team Jacob thing. And it’s still going around like disease
but to tell the truth I am a team Jacob fan why because in the movie
he is HOT!!!! And Edward is HIDEOUS!!!! I can not see what you
see in Edward. Oh and well that’s all I really have to say. Well, talk to
you next time! Bye!!!!
By unknown person.
NEWSPAPER
News paper is an after school program club. What
you do in this club is type out what you want to type
out, raise your hand and wait for the teacher to
come, then he will show you from there. You can
write about ANYTHING!!!! So more about the teacher,
his name is Brady Hodgerson. He is a seventh grade
Language Arts teacher. If you want your child or your
self (I’m talking to the students) to join just go to the
guidance office. The guidance office right next door
to the nurse’s office. Or by the garden, to the left of
the buccaneer.

Haven’t you ever wondered why so many people are so busy mutilating themselves? It’s usually
intellectual people that gnaw on their fingernails. It’s most likely a nervous habit. More than half of all
toddlers, a third of young children, over 40% of adolescents, and 19-29% of young adults do it. By the
time you’re an older adult, that number has gone down to 5%. I bet most of the people reading this
probably have never heard of the term, chronic onychophagia. But you can probably infer that it’s the
technical term for nail biting. If you can’t or didn’t then I wonder about you and your mental sanity and if
you should continue reading this.
Bitten fingertips can become very sensitive to pain, usually at the place the skin meets the edge of the
nail. Hangnails are broken skin on the cuticle. When they are improperly removed, they are susceptible to
microbial and viral infections producing whitlows. Saliva may then redden and infect the skin. Finally it
may also result in the transportation of bacteria that are buried under the surface of the nail.
How Do You Stop?
Usually, it’s just a coping skill. So… all you have to
do is… find a NEW COPING SKILL!!! Well, my little nailbiting lovely love lovelies, trimming your nails would be a
good start. But if for some reason you can’t, get some
hand lotion.
Most hand lotions taste really bad and yes, I am the voice of experience. But if that
doesn’t really work and you bite your nail(s) then carry a nail clipper around with you and
immediately smooth it out. If there’s less nail, it’s less to bite. Or maybe a nail file, which ever is more
convenient. By clipping or filing it down, you shorten and get rid of the ragged pieces. It’s really not a
good idea to carry a nail file to school so it’s probably just best to paint a bitter tasting nail polish
onto it. You can just scrape your nails along a bar of soap or pour hot sauce on them if your
desperate… Or maybe, if you’d to kill two birds with one stone, get a manicure! Treat yourself and
stop your nail biting, just tell them that you want to stop biting your nails and they should already
have the polish.
With feet having more than 250,000 sweat glands on EACH ONE, the seem to be the
smelliest part of a person’s body. In one day your feet can produce one pint of… you guessed it…
SWEAT! Sweat is basically just salt and water, though, so it doesn't have a distinctive smell of its own.
The smell is actually caused by bacteria on our skin that eats the sweat and excretes waste that has a
strong odor. It's perfectly normal to have bacteria on your whole lot to feed on. Of course we sweat all
over -- our hands have a comparable number of sweat glands, for example skin, and it doesn't
ordinarily produce a noticeable smell, but sweat attracts bacteria and gives them a -- and most of the
rest of our body doesn't particularly stink (the armpits being a notable exception.) So what's different
about our feet? The answer is our socks and shoes. The sweat our feet excrete can't easily escape into
the air like the sweat our hands excretes -- it all collects on our skin and in our socks. The bacteria love
this dark, damp feast and have a sort of feeding frenzy. When you take off your shoes, the smell that
hits you is all the bacteria excretion that's collected on your feet and in your socks and shoes.
The main reason some people's feet (or more precisely, some people's socks and shoes) smell worse
than other people's is that some people sweat more than other people. This is just one of the many
variable physiological qualities of human beings. This is also why sometimes your feet smell much
worse than at other times -- it all has to do with how much you sweat. Maybe if you’re good I’ll write a
little something on how to keep them from stinking... XD

Riddle!!
• Ok so here is the riddle
• I have two coins that equal 30 cents: one of
them is not a quarter; what is it?
• Good luck!
I HATE it when people want to know who your
crush is; it’s horrible! It is none of anyone’s business
who your crush is besides you and the people you
told (if you did). Another thing: I want to rip off your
heads for is broadcasting. Really? Your just going to
tell everyone who the crush is? Or say it when the
person is right there when you find out? Seriously,
that needs fixing.
I think relationships are another thing. If you’re in a
relationship (not that you should be at this age) it
can get….disturbing… pretty fast if your not keeping
track of what you’re doing. (instincts are your
FRENEMIES!!!!! NEVER fully trust them!) In some
relationships I’ve seen (sadly, first timers, well, one
of the two) has taken it too seriously. Every second
of everyday it seems they’re glued together by
kisses. You can only talk to them separately, never
together.
I think this is idiotic, and needs to stop. At this rate
this couple won’t have any friends who like their
relationship or, sadly, maybe no friends left at all. I’d
like to think that your partner isn’t your whole
world.
Sadly this fact is ignored or unknown to most of
the world. YOUR FRIENDS MATTER TOO, YA KNOW!
-_-
POKEMON
Ugh, this topic has me NUTS! In my opinion Pokemon
just needs to END! How many seasons are there
already? Ten? Fifteen? The first season was unique,
there was nothing like it. The second was “Oh, cool.
They made a sequel.” The third was “Another one?
Huh.” By the ninth, I was like: “WHAT IS WRONG
WITH YOU? STOP TAKING UP MY TIME!” The
current one, “*dead*.” And as each season comes
out, it just gets dumber and dumber. I mean, can’t
Pikachu get
POKEMON
A clue and evolve already or get rid of Team Rocket
for good? In addition, every season the problems
Ash and his friends face just get dumber and
dumber. For example, Ash couldn’t figure out why
the ground was shaking, while an Onyx was
smashing its tail onto the mountain in front of him.
None for you Ash, ever. -_-”
