Oh, goodness.

How am I ever going to wake up early? This summer, I've been so lazy, went to bed late, and then got up late. Argh, you're right.

Although, I can't wait to see everybody :)

What grade is your bro in? My sister's going to be a sophomore, so I won't see her for another year.

It was super cool. The reaction to it was negative though. I don't know why. Sorry, I changed it. It's been my quote for too long.

Haha, that's one of my other favorite quotes too!

Haha, lol, I wouldn't mind

Submitted by writingdog on August 26, 2008 - 18:20.

Haha, lol, I wouldn't mind being in 5th Grade. I remember the first day of 5th grade, we had homework.. It was to play this game. I got really upset just because we had homework on our first day. But in 7th Grade I had a lot. It seriously took me like 1 1/2 hours to get it done.

Yeah, she's awesome :D I've read it a million times, just can't wait for the book to be published.
Although, I actually went to this website that had a lot of quotes from every book.

Thanks!

And @NS: No, people liked my quote, I'm glad you liked it too :D I was talking about the book, Breaking Dawn and how some people were going to extremes and trying to return it.
