Hi!

marian winslow December 18, 2013 - 4:02pm

Are any of you guys fencers? I'm a sabrist and foilist! :)

greensalmon December 24, 2013 - 9:19am

oh! i do! i do it with my friend. we have only had one lesson, but we had a great time!

marian winslow December 30, 2013 - 11:51am

Cool! I've been fencing since April. What sword did you use?

Tryn28 December 27, 2013 - 12:55pm

cool!

Tryn28 December 19, 2013 - 4:26pm

i don't do it. i think i could do fencing with a saber, but not with a foil.

marian winslow December 21, 2013 - 11:54am

Why? Do you know much about the swords?

Tryn28 December 27, 2013 - 12:54pm

only a little bit. i'm not very good with strategy, and i like to have something heavy to slash with instead of a small blade

Tressa December 19, 2013 - 9:03am

No, but I really want to try it.
It just seems fun to be able to poke someone with a swordlike thing and not get in trouble.
I want to try a LOT of things actually.

marian winslow December 21, 2013 - 11:54am

It is, especially wen it's your best friend! ;) I beat my best friend 10-6 last night in sabre!

marian winslow December 24, 2013 - 10:03am

*when*

Tressa December 22, 2013 - 7:04pm

Haha, I don't know much about fencing. But it sounds fun.
I don't know if you're much of a reader, but I really like this series: The Spiderwick chronicles. You're 13 right? So you might not like it as much as I did though I'm 12. Sorry, I just thought of this because one of the main characters -Mallory- is a fencer.

marian winslow December 24, 2013 - 10:02am

I love reading! I'll have to look into it. ;) and yes, I'm 13. Have you read the Inkheart trilogy?

Eliana29 January 4, 2014 - 7:27am

im almost 13 and uhh. the inkheart trilogy is awesome!!!

Tressa December 25, 2013 - 7:23am

No, but I've heard a lot of people saying its really good.

marian winslow December 30, 2013 - 11:50am

It's AMAZING! The first two books, anyway. I highly recommend them.

Tressa December 31, 2013 - 3:44pm

Sorry, I forgot to ask in my other comments- What are they about? Since you highly recommend them, I want to check them out, but I don't actually know what they're about. :P

marian winslow January 5, 2014 - 4:40pm

They're about this girl, named Meggie, whose dad can bring book characters to life just by reading. I don't want to say too much more, cuz I might give too much away.

Tressa January 6, 2014 - 4:30pm

Who is it by? And what does the cover look like? I tried to look it up on my library's website, but it didn't seem like it would be the right one. But then again, I've never seen it before. ;)

marian winslow January 8, 2014 - 5:23pm

It's by Cornelia Funke, and the cover is red i think. There's two different cover designs, though.

Tressa January 9, 2014 - 2:32pm

Ok, thanks! That was the author name when I saw it on the library website. I didn't know if it was the right one. One of my very favorite series, Erec Rex, has like two different covers for each book. I'm on the last book, but I saw an interview and Kaza Kinglsey (the author) said she was going to make eight books altogether. She has 5 or 6 right now. ;)

Tressa January 6, 2014 - 4:12pm

Sounds like my kind of book! Now I REALLY want to read it! :)

Tressa December 31, 2013 - 3:42pm

I'll have to see if I can find them at my library or something. :)

evenstar13 December 17, 2013 - 7:32pm

Hey! My family watched tron legacy. Totally awesome, and tech lovers will find it amazing!

Sindhu January 4, 2014 - 1:02am

I LOVE gadgets, and the movie was seriously epic.

Tressa December 18, 2013 - 5:34am

I've seen that movie before. It was really good! I love those little light up disc things they throw at people to kill them. They just look cool. :)

Eliana29 December 17, 2013 - 2:44pm

not so good. I was sick Saturday, Sunday, and Monday but now im better

Tressa January 2, 2014 - 7:35am

Now my sister is sick, so I'm probably going to get sick sometime too.

cana December 19, 2013 - 1:14pm

sorry

Tressa December 19, 2013 - 9:07am

I hope all of you who've been sick feel better.

Eliana29 December 21, 2013 - 4:11pm

Thank you!!! tressa

Tressa December 30, 2013 - 12:09pm

You're welcome. I hate getting sick - I think everyone does for that matter. So I just hope you guys get well soon. :)

marian winslow December 18, 2013 - 4:00pm

I've been sick since Saturday...

greensalmon December 17, 2013 - 6:57pm

My whole family has been sick since Thanksgiving. Well, except me.

Sindhu December 21, 2013 - 1:46am

same! I haven't caught a disease in almost half a year!

Tressa December 22, 2013 - 8:22am

Why don't you go outside or interact with other people?

greensalmon December 24, 2013 - 9:20am

i dont go out much either. i am home schooled and i live on my computer.

cana December 17, 2013 - 12:33pm

good yours?:)

Tressa December 17, 2013 - 9:08am

Mine was usual. Nothing really exciting. How was yours?

Tressa December 16, 2013 - 10:04am

Does anyone know how to get your siblings to stop bugging you?

cana December 17, 2013 - 12:34pm

not really im the youngest and im normally in my room or out side so i don't really try to bother my older sisters:)
Cana

matthewx December 18, 2013 - 2:07pm

same here!!!

cana December 19, 2013 - 1:15pm

nice to no

Tressa December 17, 2013 - 5:10pm

I'm one of the oldest. (I'm twins with my brother Wyatt who is 5 minutes older than me)

doe3068 December 20, 2013 - 9:46am

i am the oldest. my sister is 12.we are really close but she does bug me so i sometimes go to the library,outside,or i read a good book and block her out.on saturdays i go to the library to have a break from my family so latter on in the week i can look forword to saturday.this help to deal with her. maybe you can try it. sorry if this very long. i like tpying

Tressa December 21, 2013 - 11:56am

Going outside is a good idea. A lot of times in the summer I go outside and hide in a tree and read or write. When I read inside though they come in and bother me. My library is like 5 or 6 miles away, and I would have to cross some major roads to get there. And I don't like walking on the road very much anymore. Don't worry, Your comment wasn't too long for me. You can probably tell I like typing too. :)

Tryn28 December 17, 2013 - 8:59am

ignore them. believe me i have some younger siblings who thought of some crazy stunts [you don't even want to know] until i just ignored them

Tressa December 17, 2013 - 2:15pm

I've tried that, they still don't leave me alone. Or they go and steal stuff from my room and hide it.

Tryn28 December 17, 2013 - 5:10pm

sometimes they just really want their older sibling to include them/play with them. i know i'm probably sounding like an adult who doesn't really seem to understand your problem.

Tressa December 18, 2013 - 5:33am

No, that's ok! :) I'm pretty sure they just want to get under my skin. They DO NOT stop calling me names, and mocking me, and making fun of me about nothing. When I ask them if I can play with them they say "No. Go away Bessie." Or something like that. My brother especially, calls me Bessie, even though my name is Tressa. Though I will admit I mock them back, I'm sure they do it to me more, and like I said they are relentless. Sometimes (A lot of times) :( I get so mad I punch them,(And I have really long nails so I accidentally scratch them too but of course they think its on purpose) but most of the time I don't mean to, I just can't control it. They say they're only mean to me because I hurt them. I say I hurt them because they're mean to me. I can't go to a quit part of the house, cause they always find me and ask me a million stupid questions. Ugh, they annoy me sometimes. Sorry I wrote so much. :l
