Where, When, What
Yep. Its a mix of procrastination and a preference to working at night.
Wait, I need to rephrase that: a preference to writing at night. I usually do all my other homework before now, but when it comes to writing assignments, I always do them when it's dark out.

Finding new books to read
We have school photos on Friday so I'm hoping my hair won't go complete spaz
Australia, 7.29pm and I'm waiting for my dad to make dinner and putting off algebra homework

About to get kicked off the computer by my mum (we say mum instead of mom.)
I think in America they use mom but everywhere else it's mum. Like how every body calls football - football but then soccer in America. In New Zealand we use both terms so it doesn't sound weird to me.

My friends are playing jenga and I am sitting beside my dog
@Chelsea yep, I call my mom "mom." and we have our American football and soccer and a ton of other sports. It's kinda tough to remember that our football is actually soccer everywhere else (especially when speaking about it in Spanish where soccer is fútbol). America also uses Fahrenheit for temperature, instead of Celsius, and drive on the right side of the road (I know England drives on the left, but I'm not sure of everywhere else). America just likes to different, I guess.
Oregon, United States5:31pm
On the laptop my mom finally found a couple days ago. We've been looking for it since November, and we found it on a high shelf in the living room right next to the tv. Either we are blind or someone else in my house put it there. :D
Ew, homework. I've been feeling bored too, and that's exactly why. It's the week before finals week, so I'm really weighed down with a lot.
United States, Indiana12:33 pm
and I will talk to everyone tomorrow I'm heading to bed
United States, Oregon9:37
Working on a really important analysis essay for my AP comp class. (I will feel so relieved when I'm finally turn it in.)
United States, Chicago, Illinois 11:48PM
Writing up lesson plans for class tomorrow (fingers crossed for a snow day!)
Also since I saw the post on Football and soccer I just want to mention something that always bothers me... why isn't it football in the US too?? I mean in soccer you kick the ball with your feet and aren't allowed to use your hands.... Football makes sense. In American FOOTball you're not allowed to use your feet unless you're kicking a field goal and that is only 3 points or 1 point after a touchdown... it just doesn't make any sense... sorry for going off on a tangent, but I love sports and that has always been weird to me... lol
I think every American has asked that question, but I have no answer for you (yet).
I just read a few explanations about football's name and apparently it has to do with the fact that the sport is played on foot rather than on horseback. It also has something to do with its relation to rugby, but I don't really get that part.

Off to school in a few moments where I get to take a big Spanish test during 1st period. Yay.
The good ol' US of A 1:30
I'm sick so it's a day of reading. So they sorta balance each other out quite nicely.
Elizabeth wrote: "Good luck"Thanks, Elizabeth. I'll actually keep a hold of that luck for tomorrow because the test was postponed for tomorrow because my teacher felt the class needed more review.
well that gives more time to study and if the weather is anything like here we may have a snow day it was over 40degrees and raining than around 3 it started snowing and within 20 min we had a good 2in of snow now the temp is dropping to 29degrees and the crazy part is its suppose to be 60degrees saturday
Ha, so you get crazy weather over there. I do too. The weather changes so often where I live. No snow today, but it's raining.
yep here in Indiana we like to say if you don't like the weather give it a min it will change lol
Where I live, the slogan is "It's the Climate!" There's not much snow here like I'd believe would be where you live, but the weather still acts wacky.
ok he's a famous basketball player and he grew up a town over from where I live and made it famous they publish these pics all the time of the beautiful snow and we don't get all that much snow mostly its Ice unless your in northern Indiana
Eww, ice. It can be really annoying and dangerous. I prefer snow.
i don't go any where during the winter trust me
