Hey dudsons,

Today's the day of the parent-teacher conferences, which meant that we get off school at 1:30 in the afternoon!  I almost forgot about the block rotation until a friend told me.  Friends are important, and that is an example why.  Otherwise, I might have been in the wrong class and might have been late to class, and that's never a good thing. It's Interesting Fact Thursday! I think I forgot to post an interesting fact last week, so please forgive me.  Anyways, on November 6th in 2004 an express train collided with a stationary car near the village of Ufton Nervet, England, which killed seven people and injured a hundred-and-fifty.  RIP.  Onto a happier fact.  Emma Stone, a renowned actress and model, was also born this day in 1988.  I love her role in Amazing Spiderman 2.  That movie almost got me into tears.  That movie is a must-see.  Even though I didn't watch the first movie, I still understood the plot of the movie.
Anyways, we got a new group project in socials that involves a picture map.  It sounds pretty cool, and I'm working with two other boys, Andrew F. and David.  This project requires us to draw a map of the school after it being destroyed by whatever creature you choose.  I hope this project goes well! We also got our first maps back and I'm pretty happy with my mark.  :)
The Geological Showdown was also today during science and I was up against Kailey.  If only I knew it was her, then I would prepare more awesome facts.  Just saying, but I think Kailey is a very smart person, considering she's supposed to be in Grade 7.  The result of the showdown was that I lost to her.  I'm not mad; I think she deserved it.
The teacher-parent conference was today and I went with my mom and dad.  I always feel nervous about these things, because the teacher stares at you a lot and either says that you're going to make it or you'll fail, period.
Afterwards, I went to Oakridge mall because my dad had a dentist appointment.  I also bought some stuff there.  I think Oakridge should have more "hip" stores, because most of their stores are high-end and expensive.  There should be at least a Hollister or American Eagle there.  I would go to Oakridge way more often if it weren't for that.
Below, I have included a super-blog youtube video of a baby eating a lemon.  His or her facial expression is so cute!  Adorable!
