How Important Is Proper Spelling And Punctuation Online?

            I think that proper spelling and punctuation online can be important at times, as in applications to jobs and other things of that sort. And yet, I think that it is not entirely important while chatting with friends or family in your email, but that is just my opinion, you don't have to believe me. I also think that you should use proper spelling and punctuation when you are searching for things on the Internet and while you are doing what i am doing, blogging. I think that you should also use proper spelling and punctuation when you are on social networking sights, so that other people can understand you. Some examples of these are Facebook, Twitter, and Buzz. By the way, this was a Jen Assignment.

Now, How To Cut Up A Fish, A Lengthy Description

                                                                       How to cut up a fish.
 First you take you the guts (don't ask me how, all i know is that you cut open the belly and take them out). Then you cut off the head, just at the base.
Next you cut off one side of the fish (called a fillet) as close to the ribs as possible, coming to the skin at the tail, but leaving the tail attached.You then do the same on the other side (note: it helps to have another person hold the fish still while someone else cuts).
That done, you set the skeleton aside for roasting on the grill.
                                              Next, you cut up the fish into smallish pieces,
which you then wrap it in something that will keep it safe from freezer burn, and then put it into the freezer to be eaten later.

How to cut up a salmon.

        I learned how to cut up a salmon at Bill, Cathy, and Jen's house. Bill showed me how, with me helping him do most of the cutting. then we cut it up into small bits, rapped it, and then made midnight sushi.
        I will explain how to cut it up at another time, as I have to go. Mindy is telling me to finish up.

The very lonsome day of school, school, school.

            I am very lonely. I am on my own today a Bill, Cathy, and Jen's. Cathy and Jen are a work and Bill is in Portland. Toshi is being a good puppy, so far. He is currently asleep on a pile of pillows. It is very cute.
            I got a new sweater recently that I am wearing right now. it is very fuzzy and warm. I am glad I brought it, as it is very cold.
            I am going letterboxing, which is kind of like geocatcing. I like it a lot. Even if I have to do it in the cold.

I don't want to do school! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

           I do not want to do my school! I don't have all that much to do, but I still don't want to do it at all. I just want to curl up in a corner and read a book. I want to read a book I haven't found one to read. If anyone has read a good book that you think I would like, please let me know, as I have nothing to read fror fun and this is making me crazy.
           I am am very tiered of waiting for CC to call me and tell me when I can come over. She has a weeding job for me and I am very sad about not hearing from her.

One of Jen's assignments: What I am doing in my internet class

      Jen told me that for my next blog entry that I had to describe my work on the Internet with her. What I am currently working on is looking at websites on intentional communities in Portland. I am also working on how to use google and avoid what is dangerous on the Internet. I feel that I am doing good work and that makes me happy.
      I am now working on my "Personal Bank Account" in my 7 Habits For Highly Effective Teens group that I am doing with a few of my homeschooling friends. I am finding very fun, as it makes me think in new ways. every time you do something good for yourself, you make a deposit. Every time you do something bad for your self, you make a withdrawal of twice the amount for the deposit that is the reverse. It has already changed the way that I look at the world.
      I am trying to get caught up on my school, which is kind of behind, and get back in the grove that I got out of this summer. It hasn't been easy, but what is that's good for you?

I'm So Tiered!

           How can I possibly be this tiered? i even slept in till about 9ish. it's true that i wasn't in my own bed, but still. I now feel obliged to admit that i stayed up really late. only now do i regret it.
           I did have the most scrumptious apple stuff this morning for breakfast though. i have no idea what Cathy put in it, but it was amazing. Not to mention that she wasn't using a recipe. earlier, Toshi was being SO CUTE! Jen had taken him outside, and on their way back in, Jen was waving a piece of bark in his face and he was jumping into the air and twisting to get at it.
          this morning I finished my book, Briar's Book by Tammora Pierce. It is the 4th book in a series called The Circle of Magic. it is very good. In it there is a new disease which is killing hundreds by the day. Briar loses one of his friends to the disease and almost loses his teacher, who is very dear to him.
         I braided my hair yesterday, so when i took it out this morning, it was all kinked up. i am having to pin it up and out of my way.
