[Kelsey, moderator]

[Jimmy]

i took one so far. I'm going to take a few more on Monday. Your going down Habecker.

[Kelsey, moderator]

lol jimmy good luck with that one he has like 100 or more points already

[Jimmy]

trust me, I'll give him a good run for his money.

[Philip, co-moderator-raider]

bring it on, Jimmy. i'm glad you're trying. i thought i'd scared everybody away already. you may have a chance, but i'm telling you now, i'm going for 1000 points this year.

(i don't know if i'll make it though... i hope i can get at least 500 again...)

[Jimmy]

Habecker, I'm going for that to, hoping to even break Maxie's record.

[Kelsey, moderator]

good luck heck i dont think i can

[Philip, co-moderator-raider]

yeah, but kelsey you can help your block beat m... (you probably can't help them beat h though... nobody can touch us...)

[Kelsey, moderator]

but how i dont have the club anymore

[Philip, co-moderator-raider]

you don't need to have club... besides, you can mobilize the readers - i bet you know who they are... just pick out a bunch of people and encourage each other and talk about what you're reading.

[Jimmy]

Habecker, im hoping H block will win, have you decided whether or not to do the book club yet.

[Philip, co-moderator-raider]

Well, it won't happen until at least the 2nd 9 weeks - unless we do it before school or something. (I'm not sure that that would fly though...)

And thanks, I'm hoping H block does too, but it's only fun if we're being pushed, so don't let your block go easy on us.

[Kelsey, moderator]

pshhh why would we go easy lol

[Jimmy]

because most people only read if they have to.

[Kelsey, moderator]

ooooo lol

[Heather]

Only reading because I have to is such a foreign concept to me. I LOVE to read and wish I had more time. Hmm... I should get off the computer now and go pick up my book!

[Jimmy]

i say i should do that all the time. same thing happens each time: facebook.

[Kelsey, moderator]

i got to get catching fire done i only have like 3 weeks and on like page 58

[Jimmy]

ya, that would be a good idea. on the note of the hunger games, I GOT MOCKINGJAY. actually I'm borrowing it from a friend of mine. I'm on chapter 5.

[Kelsey, moderator]
