Daily blogger By Jakob Tech

    One day left until Christmas break and the snow is piling up as much as the homework. As I was walking in English class like usual, I heard everyone talking to each other. When Mrs. Troester walked in told everyone to settle down. We listened to Bronx Masquerade the whole class. There was in English assignment for the day unless you had missing work, or like me the Daily Blogger.

     Outside of English class one of the best parts of the day was science class. In science class I learned how to record my voice on my computer. This was important to learn because I needed to be able to talk about my science project and record it in iMovie. Don’t forget that our iMovies are due today!


     Now as break gets closer our days seem to get longer. I hope all of you have finished your homework so we can have fun. If I don’t see all of you before then have a great break and Merry Christmas.

daily blogger 12 - 16 by Hunter Cullen

     “Aw man!” I’m daily blogger again! Well today in English we worked on our first and last lines poem which I really enjoyed. Also we were going to read Bronx Masquerade. I like the characters and  the poems that they write for open mike Friday and  how our class does the same thing.

       Since there was a late start for school today I invited my friend Nate Welsh over so, we could finish our science project. When he got over, we finished our project. That was a relief because we     did not have to worry about finishing it later. After that we had an hour and thirty minutes to play Call of Duty which was really fun. I think anyone could tell that we were having a blast until it was time to go to school.

     After going through school getting homework and finishing it in study hall. I went to lunch and ate and went through my other classes like a breeze. Now the best part of the day basketball practice! It was really fun until it was over but I said tomorrow I will play again no worries.  Then I went
Home. Peace out daily Blogger!

Daily Blogger 12/17/14 By: Felipe

Hi my name is Felipe Lopez. This morning I woke up got ready ate breakfast. Then I waited for my ride to come and picked me up. This afternoon I went to my english and we learned how to write a poem and we read the book "Bronx masquerade. 

Finally For my last period I have P.E. and we had basketball practice which i'm not going out for. We learned different ways to pass the ball and practice shooting the ball.

I was very happy because it was my last period and then I went home and then I had to do my Homework. Then I had Supper then I watch some TV and then I went to sleep. That is how my night ended.

     I woke up this morning and was not in a good mood. I wanted to sleep more, but my mom said that I had to go to school. Sadly. When I got here, I took my box of food to English class and went to reading. Reading was fun because we got to deliver secret santas.

     In English we worked on our 1st & last line poems. Then we read some of our book Bronx Masquerade. It was good. After that I learned that I was daily blogger. I was sad.

     At the end of the day we had basketball practise which I'm not going out for. I still have not figuered out why they make use try it if we dont want to do it. That's all for me. Have a very merry Christmas and a happy new year.


                                                                                        Here's a peak at my poem



Daily Blogger 12/3/14 By: Nate W

Well, looks like I’m the blogger today. I have to give a shout out first of all, to all my boys in wrestling. We rose and we fell…together. I tell you, the people right here, you’re going to remember them for the rest of your life.

In English, we’ve been doing most of that boring review stuff for this poetry unit. The book we’re reading, Bronxe Masquerade, really is a pretty good example of some pretty awesome poetry. And, like Tyrone said, some of them girls get pretty deep if you know what I’m sayin’.

The end of the first semester has been rapidly approaching, and now, it’s our last week of it. THANK GOD! I have to say though, the teachers this year aren’t as bad as I thought (no offense) they would be. I’ve enjoyed just about every minute of this year….so far. I hope the best for all the guys going out for basketball, which starts Monday. Anyway, thanks, for your time, and HAPPY KWANZAA!!!

Daily Blogger 12/12/14 - By Alek

Hello, today in English we worked on reading this book named the "Bronx Masquerade". The book seems to be all about this wanna be gangster, Tyrone.

In reading we took a vocabulary test. Also, we read the book "Speak".

This weekend I will do absolutely nothing except this daily blog.

Yo yo yo! I’m blogger today. It is a great Thursday. Today in English we took a easy test. We also read Bronx Masquerade.
           
            In 4 period algebra ½ we had a quiz. It took forever to finish. It was also very boring.


            The Junior High girls basketball game is to night. Hope they win.

Daily Blogger: 11/20 Olivia

             Today started great. I woke up late to my mom yelling " What are you doing? Get Up!" I jumped five feet out of my bed and scattered, half a sleep tripping over the garbage can I call my room. I get to school barley two minutes before the first bell rings. "Todays just gonna be perfect", I think in my head.
              I make it to fourth period without falling asleep, well if you don't count that little snooze I took in history. In English today we looked at "My name" poems from last years 8th graders, and I thought that their poems were really good. I especially liked Julia's poem because she used quotes that described who she is in every stanza. Then we got to write our own name poems.
              Then I went the rest of the day, each period seemed to be getting longer and longer as the day went on. In ag. we presented our animal presentations. Mine was about the cattle industry. My dad brought a live cow to school for my presentation. After ag, I was glad to be just one more class away from home. Basketball though. That just tiered me out. Seem to last forever. When practice was finally done, I struggled to climb in the car with three heavy bags. When I finally settled myself, I feel right to sleep to catch up on the hours of sleep.

Today I have daily blogger and its kind of fun and kind of not. We are getting really close to Christmas break and I don’t really want Christmas because I won’t have my dad, grandma, or my nana. In English we looked at our poem with Mrs. Babl. I am really excited for study hall because I get to meet my new mentor. My day was kind of boring. In PE we were doing circuits and I already have an infection in my lungs which really hurts to breathe. I’m sorry I forgot to get a photo today.

Daily Blogger- 12/10/14 By: Hannah Alden

            I woke up to the sound of skidding and colliding; as my cat likes to run back and fourth on the wood floors of my house, eventually ending up running face first into one of the wooden doors we have. I rushed to get ready for this, so not bright Tuesday morning. Of course I arrived to school just in the knick of time. Just having enough time to put my gym bag on top of the lockers and rush to first period with Mrs. Morrow.
           I walk into third period English grab my tables’ bright yellow box with letters, “P3-T4,” on it. Mrs. Troester then starts to read us a few “Name Poems,” from last year and then tells us to take out our computers and get started writing some hobbies/interests and adjectives to help us write our poems. This part is always the hardest for me, because I never know what to put down. If you finished your poem during class you could start studying our poetic terms, because we have a test on Thursday.
            My family and some other families are heading down to Lincoln, NE this Saturday to cheer on the O’Neill wrestlers as they take on Amherst. Then later that night we get to cheer even more, while we get to watch the Nebraska wrestlers. My weekends are always super busy when wrestling season starts, but I wouldn’t want to be doing anything else.

Daily Blogger 12/8/14 By: Collin

 Daily Blogger 12/8/14
            Right after a long weekend we get Monday piled onto us like an avalanche of snow. I hate Mondays. Walking into school on a mild weather morning just marks the beginning of one less week until winter break. Did I mention I have daily blogger today? (Hopefully that was obvious)

            Today in English class we listened to Bronx Masquerade. This book is rather interesting, a kid lights the fire for an idea to start an open mike poetry reading every Friday. The kids get deep and really express themselves.


            I spent the rest of the day going to long classes that got pretty boring. Finally we went outside for P.E. and walked the track. This was a typical Monday and I’m glad to share my experience with you.





daily blog

Today in class we had to read/listen to a very racist book called the Bronx Masquerade. Its about teens in New York writing very racist or Demented poems. And are very ghetto when they speak.

Daily Blogger 12/5/14 by: Amaya D

I guess today I am daily blogger Yay! Well I woke up this morning not wanting to come to school at all. I felt like just sleeping all day, so I had to set like five alarms by the time the last one goes off I am finally up.
            It is now fourth period and Mrs.Troster reminds us that today is open mic. There were a lot of good poems that people read out loud. Dennis’s was kind of scary it was a “ This is Just to say” poem and it was about him killing someone’s cat with a lawnmower. I thought everyone else was pretty good also.

            The wrest of my day was pretty great since it was Friday. Basketball practice is always my favorite. We got to play a full court game against each other. When we did our conditioning, I kind of wiped out. It really hurt, but at the same time it was hilarious. I can’t wait to write more.

   Today started out like any other Thursday. Everyone was excited that it was almost Friday, but by the middle of the day everyone was ready for this long Thursday to be over with including me. Thank goodness this long Thursday is over and done with.

   I started the day in reading class. We went over our vocabulary and then read for the rest of the period. Science was next and we wrote notes. Then came English. Today in English we read William Carlo William’s “This is Just to Say” Poem. After we read and saw some examples, we got to write our own. Which was pretty fun and easy to do.


   The day ended with a pep rally in the gym. The cheerleaders cheered to get the crowd going. The dance team danced a wonder dance that wowed the crowd. The pep rally lasted 25 minutes but seemed only a second. This long Thursday came to a great ending.

Daily Blogger 12/2/14 By Jace Stagemeyer

     “Let me go back to bed,” I said as my mom was trying to wake me up this morning. Usually I am one of the first ones to get out of bed, but that just changed. I had wrestling yesterday and got home at 9:30 p.m. and worked on homework until 11:00 p.m. I guess it was worth it because I got second.

            Today in English I only had about five minutes left because I was busy with having FFA, band, and wrestling pictures. When I had time to work we did an online text book on iBooks that had a little quick questions at the end. I thought it was pretty easy and it went very fast.


            Since I had missed a lot of my classes for activity pictures I have a lot of homework. Tomorrow I will not be at school because I will be going to the District LSE’s. We leave the school at 5:45 p.m. and head to Valentine Nebraska. I have to give a speech for the contest, and I am participating in quiz bowl. Last year my team won quiz bowl and I won the speech contest. My speech is about a UNL professor is making cornhusks into cloths. I hope you have a great rest of the day.

Ugh! I hear my alarm going I reach over to my table and pick up my phone and throw it. It just kept beeping I finally get up and get ready for today. 7th and 8th graders have a basketball game tonight. I'm really excited. So I hurry up and get my stuff in my gym bag and full out sprint to the door not only because I was excited for the game because i wanted the front seat of the car.

On the way to school my mom, Alex, and I were talking about pictures. I have to take two pictures today. I have to take pictures for choir and basketball. Which means I am going to have to change a lot and fast. My first class of the day is Reading I like it a lot because well we practically do nothing besides sit there and read. Which can "totally" be fun. My second class today was science we didn't do much we just took notes and checked our extra credit worksheet. My third class today was English it was ok. I was told about daily blogger which is what I am doing right now. Well that's about it.

Daily Blogger 12/1/14 Heydon

     Today started out cold. English, on the other hand did not. We started with a warm and talkative poetic review, identifying the poetic elements we saw. We then moved on to filling out our "Favorite Place on Earth" outline.

     Later in the day the high school and junior high bands played some groovy tunes, filling the school with wonderful noise. Science was interesting as we were talking about physics.


     The high school boys have their first basketball game tonight with and at Clearwater. Typically we lose at sports events, I don't expect anything different tonight. The junior high boys have a wrestling meet at Neligh at 5:00p.m. tonight as well. Good luck and go Eagles!
