A few more quotes that I've gathered from friends, family, and other people I know!

"That really doesn't sound all that bad to me."
~Taby and I, while standing in the lunch line and talking about her life
"but still i am too be doomed as a contented nothing for through out my sarrow ful lifeless life"

~Taby, whenever she's feeling a bit insane/hyper
"Theres theres 48 grams of sugar in my drink"
"Well i have 56!"

Me and Alex: Mr. Park!
Me: You're not going to be here on Tuesday!
Alex: What are we suposed to do, go into the office and say that we have an anouncement?
Mr. Park: You're going to make to anouncement on Tuesday.
Me and Alex: You're not going to be here on Tuesday
Mr. Park: I'm Not? What's the day after Tuesday?
Me and Alex: Wednesday.
Mr. Park: Am I going to be here on Wednesday?
Me and Alex: We don't know
Me: How are we suposed to know?
Mr. Park: I am going to be here, you'll make the anouncement on Wednesday.
Alex: Ok.
~If you knew Mr. Park, this conversation wouldn't seem strage to you, just funny. Mr. Park is the Yearbook Advisor at our school, and the announcement was one we had to make over the PA concerning the Yearbook.
Mrs. White: It's just thinking!
Cody: Oh, it hurts!
Mrs. White: How would you know, you haven't done it
yet.
Mrs. White: Ok, so Catelyn can give the report.
Catelyn: Ohh...
Mrs. White: What? Talking's the same standing up as
sitting down.
Adventures in partner juggling... Just so you can see how NOT sane I really am...
Me: "We can do this, Kari! Or else we're... bad at juggling!"
Kari: "We ARE bad at juggling, Sandy"
Me: "Oh, yeah..."
Me: "We can do this, Kari!"
Kari: "No we can't, Sandy."
Me: "Why not?"
Kari: "Cause we can't juggle."
Me: "Good point."
Mr. Gabrys: "You need just a little more practice... you're almost there!"
Me: "Did you hear that, Kari? We're almost there!"
Kari: "Sandy, we suck."
In case everyone was wondering, we had to juggle at school for a grade in Phys. Ed. There were a bunch of ways to get points, and for an A, we had to get 1000. Partner juggling was one of the ways.
The scary little seventh graders! (They have multiple lives...)
"Where's Trina? We need to ask her something."
"She died."
~Me and Kellye asking Lia where Trina was
The next day...
"Hey, Lia, where's Trina?"
"She died again."
"Twice?!"
~Me and Kellye asking about Trina again.
"Where's Trina? Is she here today?"
"They're both absent."
"Wha...?"
~Me and Kellye asking Stefan if he new where Trina was
"...and then I felt guilty, so I shot myself in the head."
"Wait, you died?"
"*Laughs* yeah"
*I go bug Katrina, then come back*
"...and I fell off the balkony and the guy dumped a refrigerator on top of me."
"Gosh, how many times have you died?"
~Heather, trying to tell a joke, and me interupting her
A.J.:"We're all gonna die every time Javier doesn't shave!"
Me:"No, you're going to die. You're the seventh grader."
This stuff I've gathered from lots of other places, and it's just quotes that I like!
"The moving finger writes; and having writ moves on; nor all thy piety nor wit small lure it back to cancle half a line, nor all thy tears wash out a word of it."
~Omar Khayyan, 11th century Iran (I know this is writen by some guy that died 1000 years ago, but I like it, and I went through piles of scribled papers, not to mention paying enough atention during Social Studies long enough to catch that quote and write it down, to find it and put it up here now.)
"A ship in port is safe, but that's not what ships are for. Be good ships. Sail out to sea and do new things."
