Week 32

Most Interesting Part of This Class:  When we did midweeks.  Everyone assumed the first answer to the midweeks was "dangling phrase" lol
Least Favorite Part of This Class: Grammar... Obviously everyone is going to say that!
Hardest I Laughed in This Class: The hardest I laughed was when Austin fell off of that stool. He tipped over a little too far, he gripped onto the side of the school, and just realized he couldn't catch himself... there was no way he was going to be saved
Favorite Memory from This Class: The best memory was when we hid Rylan. we all told you he went to the bathroom, but in reality he was just right behind us. We pulled up all of our desks to that little ledge and just squished together!
Best Thing About Hudson as a Teacher: Her randomness and her excitement about school! She tries to come to school with a positive attitude! She just can't help it when she's sick though
Thing Hudson Could do to Make This Class Better For Future Classes: I really can't think of anything, because if I just say "get rid of grammar", you'll just kind of chuckle because you and I both know that will never happen!
Any Final Comments for Hudson: Thank you for such a fun Junior year:)

Week 31

Alright children, I know you're probably just going to skim through this advice, which is okay! You'll just be missing out on life changing advice. NUMBER ONE. Walk on your side of the freaking stairs! This last year wasn't all that bad to be honest, because I think that us upperclassmen may have intimidated some of you guys. NUMBER TWO. Knock it off with all the drama! You have no idea how much it stresses out the faculty and us annoyed fellow classmates. It's all so stupid! We all come to the same school to get the same education, and the drama just makes a regular school day worse. NUMBER THREE. Do not and I repeat DO NOT fall behind in your work. I procrastinated like crazy my Junior year and it just made things worse for me. If you get an assignment, and its due in a week... freaking start working on it when you get it... not the night before its due. NUMBEF FOUR. Please don't give your teachers hell. They don't get paid enough to put up with all of our crap. They're not just teaching us certain subjects. They're teaching work ethic, time management, and how to just simply respectful (respect seems to be fading away honestly). Us students are so lucky to be going to a small school, because we get to have one on one time help from the teachers. Now,  I hope that you guys have a great school year:)

Week 30

As I sat there in awe.. slobber was running down the side of my mouth, because I knew nothing. I didn't even know my name. Just then, 4 people walk and try to introduce themselves to me. I had no idea what they were saying. After weeks of teaching me every letter and word over again... and the meaning behind them, they explained my "past" life. The first person was named Santana. I guess we worked together! She told me that everyone at work loved me and my work ethic! She also said that everyone at work missed me so much that they all wrote me a get better card. The next person who introduced them-self was Sam Rediger. She was telling me about all of these crazy adventures we had together. Like this one time, we playing with the ponies, and then her dad called us up from the bottom field .. telling us to grab a shovel because the field he was at was on fire! The last two people who were there were my parents.. because these 4 people know me the best, that's it... they came in to tell me all about my childhood. My childhood must have been awesome with them around:)

Week 29

Today was a normal day at school, until I got to Miss Hudson's room. There sat this large, strange object... a yellow submarine. Out of no where, Hudson jumps on her desk and says, "Young grasshoppers! Climb aboard my magical Submarine!". We all stood there in awe, because one our teacher just jumped on her desk and two... where in thee heck did she get a submarine. A few seconds past, and we all climbed aboard. There were buttons EVERYWHERE... and I mean everywhere! There were exact amount of seats for all of us kids. The seats even had our names on them! When we were all comfortable Miss Hudson told us where we were going. "We're going to China!", of all places, she picks China... wow. Miss Hudson programmed this yellow submarine and then we all sat back in our seats waiting to leave. We never left! The submarine never moved! WE CAN'T USE A SUBMARINE WITHOUT WATER!!!

Week 28

Dear Sam,
 Life would be a crazy roller coaster without you. The first time we first talked in 7th grade, I knew we would be friends for a long freaking time. We have made sooo many memories and I can't wait to make more! Remember the time in Missouri when we took that bag of ice to the people camping next to us? You threw the ice down in their cooler a little too hard... you smashed all of their eggs lol. Do you remember just the other day you pulled into Tom's field entrance and parked.So,I tried to pull in next you, but you didn't think I had enough room. You started backing out as I was pulling you. Well you didn't see me so you almost hit me!!!... with Tom's car!! P.S. I had plenty of room:)

Week 27

"My church" blares through the speakers of an 01 z71, when 2 teenage girls fly over some railroad tracks outside of town. The original plan was to just go to Lacon and grab supper, but then one of them had a great idea. They were going to just drive until they got lost. If I remember correctly, their names were Sam and Kaylee actually! Sam insisted on driving, because her car does wayyy better on gas... and Kaylee was completely okay with that. Sam had to stop in Metamora first to wash her car, then they were off. Sam drove out past Eureka until she couldn't recognize her surroundings. Kaylee was almost asleep, because she had been sick. When they kept driving, they noticed a town called Goodfield. Sam and Kaylee stopped and ate at this awesome restaurant called The Busy Corner. Then, they were off again. In some strange way, they ended up in Bloomington... how were they going to get back. Kaylee called her dad, and he didn't seem too happy about it. Sam doesn't really like driving on the interstate, but we had to take 39 and exit the interstate in Minonk. By then, we knew how to get home:)

Week 26

This is going to be a rant blog. I am apologizing ahead time... sorry. So my wonderful "wish I had a smart comeback" story starts in welding class. I was having an awful day and none of my welds were turning out. I walked up to my teacher and asked him what I was doing wrong. Well, we all have those days where your mouth is saying one thing and your mind is thinking about another. I said, "Nothings not turning out right" to him, because I couldn't think of the right word to say. I know I was grammatically incorrect and I sounded like an idiot, but the funny thing is... he had to point out what I said and make fun of me. He said, "Is that how all you Washburn kids talk?". To remind you, this is my teacher from Metamora. A million freaking things were running through  my mind, but a comeback wasn't one of them. A fist flying through the air was actually one of those thoughts, but that would be flat out stupid, but still tempting. After he said that, I just stood there in shock because I couldn't believe he said that. I would understand it if he was meaning it in a joking matter, but it was coming from a teacher. He was making fun of my education. I'm not the person to really cry, but that smart remark hit me in the feels... like anvil falling from the sky... really fast.
