    Hi, Clough
    I have a quiz for you. Please help me finish it.
    First, please write down a series of numbers from 1 through 11.
    Then, please write down two of your female friends' name separately beside number 3 and 7.
    Please write down three song names separately beside number 8, 9 and 10.
    Let me know when you finish it :>

    Me too. He'd better show up soon.

    I wonder what happens with the numbers that don't have anything written next to them.

    Wait, I never really talked to any boys. Could I write down my boyfriend. And the name of a kid I would sometimes talk to. More of an aquaitance

    Hey, Michelle, it's bedtime... but I wanted to ask you if you did anything (hopefully 3 things) positive today? Did you make an effort to smile at someone, help anyone in any way? Did you deal with a problem in a positive way instead of negative? Did you finish you homework (if you had any)? Did you read anything interesting, come up with any new hobbies?

    Just wondering...

    You write whatever names you feel there, hun. If you consider them friends, then I guess it would be just fine! :)

    Yeah, I bet he's going to make us think and write some more! Hahaha! Wonder where he is? He said he'd be back about 10:30. Hopefully all is well. I always worry when people are late. What a pain! :)

    That girl at my school who I was afraid was going to say something to me... she sat in front of me and turned around and put her head down on my desk and started talking to me.. then I helped her with her work.
    I didn't bother with my homework because its in algebra and I hate how my teacher grades things. You get 10 points for doing somewhere between 15 and 100 problems. But either way each assignment is worth 10 points. And I don't understand the stuff anymore. I did up until about a week ago but now I am lost
  • Oct 9, 2007, 10:09 PM
    grammadidi
    That was great about the girl in front of you! I bet she appreciated the help. That's a huge step for you, isn't it??

    As for the algebra, haven't you asked for help yet? Maybe this girl who sits in front of you knows how to do it and could help YOU?? Just a thought... Honestly, though, Michelle, you are better off trying to do the work and getting it wrong than not doing it at all. I told you before, that way the teacher HAS to pass you! Plus, she can see where you are having problems and maybe she will spend more time teaching the things you have difficulty with. I think it's better to try than to do nothing. Plus, don't forget, Wondergirl said she'd try to help.

    Anyhow, why don't you get your pretty little head down for the night? I guess we'll find out tomorrow what Clough has in store for us.

    Sweet dreams...

    Hugs, Didi
  • Oct 9, 2007, 10:12 PM

    Yeah probably because I think she is in a higher math class. Like geomatry or something so she alreadt passed algebra I think

    Was that THAT girl we talked about earlier??
  • Oct 9, 2007, 10:15 PM

    Which one?? She's the one I talked to on myspace

    I'm sorry about that! Yeah, I know. I'm a real pain in the..

    One of the other singers in the group invited me over after the rehearsal because his wife had made this pot roast that was incredibly delicious! He also wanted to spend some time discussing issues...

    You love them more than you love us?? (And we had no pot roast--or caramel brownies--waiting here... )
  • Oct 9, 2007, 10:36 PM

    Ok, Clough. We have our lists. Now what?
  • Oct 9, 2007, 10:37 PM
    Clough
    Okay, I'm caught up as much as I going to be right now and will stop keeping you nice people from waiting. As far as I can tell, we have four females who wanted to participate in the test, Michelle, friend4u178, Wondergirl and grammadidi correct?

    Not that it really matters from my perspective in the test, but does anyone know if friend4u178 is a male or a female?
  • Oct 9, 2007, 10:39 PM
    br_hjs
    I believe a male... just from checking profile

    Hahahaha! I didn't mean YOU were a pain! Ohhh... who could turn down a pot roast? :) Glad all is well and you had a good evening. Sure beats sitting around on a computer all night!

    You know about "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach!!" :p :D ;)
  • Oct 9, 2007, 10:43 PM

    Br is correct about friend4u--sounds like a male person.

    What I am going to do is send each of you a private message the way that Serena sent one to me. As a matter of fact, I am going to send the same messages. Because of the way that the test works, I think that it would be preferable that the reasons not be posted here the way that they were sent to me. If they were, then that would spoil it for other people who might want to participate in the test. I think you will see why after you see the reasons for the questions. (I'm using the word reasons for the questions, but that might not be the most correct word. Help me out someone please, if you would with a better word, if there is one, after you have seen the private message that I am going to send you.)

    I think that it would be okay to discuss the test on the post we are on right now, just not to post the reasons in the order they were given to me.

    I will proceed with more, after all of you have let me know that you have read this message by posting a response here to it. Thank you!
  • Oct 9, 2007, 10:52 PM
    Clough
    I'm not going to send the message to friend4u178 until he indicates to me that he has written down the names and the other things that were asked.

    Okay, Clough... I have read the most confusing message that I have read tonight! :D By the way, is your name Welsh?

    Didi

    Sorry about that! I tend to over-explain things. I am somewhat obsessive-compulsive. It's just that, the way the test works the best, is if the person answering the questions has absolutely no idea as to why the questions are being asked. If they did know, then they would be favoring the way that they were answering because they would want the test to come out the way that they wanted.

    Yes, the name is Welsh. How did you find that out? There is a Clough castle in Wales. My family has been in this country since the year 1635. About the only things that are left to be uncovered in the family history is the dirt! :p

    Yes, I read it.

    Thanks! Okay, that's two out of three people. Michelle, if you need anything explained, that will happen either tonight or tomorrow. I just need to know that you have read the message as I had asked. Thank you!
