Well, no clue what day it is, but on Bus 682, who cares? Life is a party...except for when we all have biology, math, and computer science quizzes/tests/quests (it falls between a quiz and a test - a big quiz or a little test-depends on how you see it) and papers due. Then, we are all asleep or studying or a little bit of both.
So even though tomorrow is the day before the day where we all pig out and eat WAY too much (AKA Thanksgiving), we still have to get up before the sun...
:(
Oh well, for me at least, it beats having to clean the entire house from top to bottom!
Got to go study for a quiz/test/quest,

Bus Adventures: Day 6
Morning:
This morning was amazingly strange. It felt like there was no time difference at all. It was dark still, but the sun soon came out and if felt like we were running late all of a sudden! We were talking about the strangest subjects in small groups. I know there was something I wanted to report about, but I just can't remember anymore...it'll come to me tomorrow morning...!
Afternoon:
This afternoon was filled with the strangest conversations, again. We were talking about the buddy-buddy system, people we know, the class election speeches, and other strange topics. We were so loud that the upperclassmen told us to "Shut up, there are people trying to sleep!"
Okay, maybe not that curtly, but that was the gist of it!
Once again, homework beckons,

Bus 682 Adventures: Day 5
Hurray! We made it to the end of the week! Can you believe it?
Morning: Today, the bus was silent. Seriously, it was like we had walked into a vacuum and there was no air for the sound to travel through.
Afternoon: I, at least, was bouncing up and down the aisle because it was "Friesday!" Hurrah, hurray! Everyone was in high moods and there was food going around and around the freshmen section. Apples, pears, granola balls, and pretzels were going around.
Mmm, sounds good! Can't wait for Monday. Actually, I guess I could wait for Monday! IT'S THE WEEKEND!!
BTW, sorry, I didn't have time to finish this yesterday!

Bus 682 Adventures: Day 4
Morning:
Wow, I really am the life of the party. I couldn't even stay awake to write for the blog! If any bus riders have and comments, please feel free to.
Afternoon: Yeah, I am the life of the party...I was too sleepy to do anything but eat and rest again. Yup, the life of the party...
Tomorrow will be a lot less sleepy...promise!

Bus 682 Adventures: Day 3
Today was a crazy day! Since the sophomores and juniors had their PSAT today, everyone got out of school at 12:00!!
Morning:
The bus was buzzing with excitement, fear, and anticipation for the day. The sophomore and junior sections were comparing the times they went to bed and who studied and who didn't...
The rest of the bus was just as jumpy, we were so excited to get out of school at 12:00 instead of 3:50! Who wouldn't be?!
Afternoon:
It was really strange to go home at 12:00 and everyone was jumping with energy...at least, in the freshmen section we were! Again, some did Soulja Boy down the aisle, but that ended soon. Next, there was a Who-can-stay-standing-the-longest contest which was ended by a turn off the highway. Needless to say, I came in second because I fell on the turn. Those things are the extreme test of balance. Earlier, the Sam kid had left the contest because she landed on the seat in front of her. Yup, work on your balance!
Trying not to fall,

Bus 682 Adventures: Day 2
Morning:
Today, again, the bus was active in the morning. We had a full freshmen section (12 people, 6 guys and 6 girls) and while a few were sleeping or doing homework, the rest where chatting amongst ourselves. We recieved information about tomorrow's dismissal (the sophomores and juniors are taking the PSAT so everyone gets out about three hours early) and word that we were going to have a mini bus-evacuation drill.
When we got to the school, the front half of the bus got off as normal and the back half got to climb out the back!!
Afternoon:
Today, I didn't really pay too much attention to what was going on (if you give me a book, you better say good-bye; I won't pay any attention to you at all). If any readers from Bus 682 know what happened, just email me or write a comment!
Reading away,

Bus 682 Adventures: Day 1
Wow, everyone was so nice about me writing about them that I can now start my chronicles about Bus 682 today!
Morning:
This morning was livelier than usual considering that four of us freshmen were in Latin 2 and had a large map project due. We sat there comparing maps and discussing what the others might have. Finally, we all settled down to rest for a short 10 minutes before we got to school
Afternoon:
This afternoon, we were bouncing off the wall with sugar and energy we were bouncing from seat front to seat back to the bus wall to the aisle and the person sitting across the aisle. One freshman was sketching cartoon/caricatures of some kids and the Sam kid was begging to be drawn. The artist put off and put off drawing Sam until there was no time left at all. The artist was forced to agree to draw Sam tomorrow! There were a few minor "fights" (we prefer the word 'lively debates' rather than 'fight' because fight sounds violent - not that it wasn't...), but overall, just another regular ride.
If you were wondering about the buddy-buddy system, I'll explain it to you. The buddy-buddy system is a way to rank the closeness of two people, hence the name buddy-buddy system. However, you can add up to ten 'buddy' s to signify a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. You always have one buddy that means friend (not ranking of closeness) in each buddy-buddy-etc. that you have. Here is a breakdown of the buddy-buddy system:
Buddy : friend
Buddy-buddy : close friend
Buddy-buddy-buddy : close, close friend
Buddy-buddy-buddy-buddy : close, close, close friend
Basically you add another 'close' to the meaning for every 'buddy' that you add to the phrase.
The formula is:
Buddy + (rank of closeness)buddy = (number of 'buddy' added)close + friend
For example:
For a rank of pretty close friends or a ranking of 4 (on a scale of 1-10 with 1 being just a friend and 10 being girlfriend-boyfriend), you might say
Buddy + (4)buddy = (4)close + friend
Buddy + buddy+buddy+buddy+buddy = close+close+close+close + friend
Buddy-buddy-buddy-buddy-buddy = close, close, close, close friend
NOTE: the buddy-buddy system is more for a girl and guy, but can be used for a girl and girl or a guy and guy without a ranking of 10
So, there's the buddy-buddy system, don't worry, there won't be a test on it!
Homework beckons,

Wow! Bus 682 Craziness, here we come!
Due to public demand (you readers!) I have decided to start chronicling Bus 682's adventures, craziness, and riders. This will start on Tuesday. I will try to post two items a day, one about Bus 682, the other about random subjects. Thanks for your input!
I still can't believe I have a blog. If I know your email address, you probably got something from me announcing it, but still...wow!
One reader asked me to describe the characters. As much as I want to, I believe in privacy so I will get the freshmen on bus 682 to sign a sheet saying they allow me to blog about them. Yes, I could technically blog about them, but it's just a "nicety" (is that even a word? It is now!)
So, because I am writing about a high school bus, please let me know your opinion on high school! Also, don't forget about the other poll, be nice and participate in both!
Thanks,
Little Star

Amazing bus rides...
All right, if ya'll want to know about the ah-maze-ing bus ride to my high school, prepare yourself for a whirlwind!
Mornings:
The bus gets to my stop around 6:55 so everyone at my stop has to be there by 6:50. The last stop is around 7:10-7:15 for those who are running late.
By the time we actually hit the road, half of the bus is sleeping, a quarter is doing homework, and the last quarter is talking quietly with friends. The morning ride is boring and seems to take forever, which seeems like a good thing when you have homework!!
Afternoons:
This is where the party is! The bus leaves school at 4:00 and by 4:05, we are all laughing, talking, pigging out on left over lunch, and having a great time. We have had so many fun things, once someone brought his guitar and serenaded us with the Delilah song. One afternoon, someone had an iPod with Soulja Boy on it so we hooked it up to a mini speaker that my friend had. There were people dancing in the aisle, flailing around, falling into seats, and having the time of their lives. We also have had tons of "who-can-stay-standing-the-longest-when-the-bus-is-moving" contests. The most unlikely people seem to have great balance (*cough*Sam*cough*)!
We "debate" about the most random things (making it great stuff to talk about on this blog) including the topic of best frosting color on those oh-so-good cookies from Sam's Club. I definately think pink is the best, but I have a weak spot for pink things! Some crazies on the bus (you know who you are!!) like the yellow frosting and others still like the blue.
This is just some of the crazy things we do when going to school on our yellow school bus.
"We all live in a yellow school bus, a yellow school bus, a yellow school bus, oh, we all live in a yellow school bus... on our way to high school!"
If you have any crazy bus stories from bus 682 or others, just let me know in a comment! I might do a post about all the other stories if I get enough comments!
GtG, the bus is here!
