I know today isn't Friday, but I thought writing on this would be of good use to people debating between Red Ribbon Hero 2 or the videos Microsoft makes. 
     
     If you are a middle school teacher: If your a teacher, you want whats best for your student's brains. Depending on the grade, age level, academics... this could go on for years. Honestly, for middle school teachers, I wouldn't even bother with Red Ribbon hero. Why? I think this because, its for little kids. Two, it mixes up all the Microsofts. Three, there are no "well-made" practices. Microsoft offers a variety of videos, focusing on one topic, with "well-done" practices, and help if needed. Microsoft lets you go back and rel-look your mistakes and guides you through each practice. I did think Microsoft had a greater effect than Red  Ribbon Hero did.


     If your a middle school student: Red Ribbon hero is really fun. In fact, its more fun than Microsoft! Just, did you actually remember anything? Did you even go back and look at your mistakes. I personally think the Red Ribbon hero is to easy. If you like it... than learn from it! ;)

 
"Oligander!" "Switi!" "Oligander!!!" "Switi!!!" 
     This was all Patrick Higgle ever heard during lunch at the Academy of Arts For Misbehaved Children. After a while, it seemed to become quite tiresome and the library became a quick option for Partick to sneak off too. Every student at the Academy was an, of course, child who at one point in time, misbehaved. The Academy was large and confusing with all of its tunnels and passages and halls, of course; which meant the best of the best people would need to look over it. Just with Patrick's luck ( he was heading to the library, of course) he bumped into the one and only Mr. M.C. Oggle, the leader of the school. "Mr. Higgle?" He smiled while a large banner behind him titled, "WORK YOUR WORST? TIME TO BURST!", was being hung over the cafeteria doors. "And what exactly do you think your doing? Today's special was a tuna sandwhitch I believe. Correct?"  Patrick gulped, "Yes... s-s, sir. it sure was delicious!" Patrick turned around just to be grabbed again by Mr. Oggle on the shoulder, "Then what would that be?" Mr. Oggle said, pointing to a square-like shape hidden under Patrick's uniform. Patrick opened his mouth to speak but went just about breathless. "I have no idea- "I'm warning you boy! I have eyes everywhere!" Mr. Oggle grabbed the boy's jaw and pushed it down, then, from about 3 feet away threw a mint into Patrick's mouth, "Run along," he laughed, "And watch out!"
     The library was quiet except for the sound of bubble gum bubbles popping in students' mouths. Patrick scanned the isles of books so interested in finding the perfect book! Then, out of nowhere came the girl Patrick had been avoiding since he was transferred to the Academy. "Hello Angel." Patrick squeaked as she passed him. "Hello, Patrick... Higgle." Patrick opened his mouth to reply, by saying he had work to do and better leave but Angel spoke for him; "I wanted that book," she said, pulling he gum out of her mouth and rolling it around her finger. She was tall and large, completely overweight.. and pure scary. Angel grabbed the book out of Patrick's hands and shoved her gum into one of the pages, "Now I can read it! Want it back?" she asked showing all her fearsome teeth at poor little Patrick, "NO," he replied, "That book, in fact, doesn't interest me one bit. I've always hated wizards and goblins  Er....-Have a nice day, Angel!" and off he ran.
 
     Yep! It's Friday and I am already ready for the weekend! I'll tell you! It's been hard. All this waking up at 5:50 and going to bed at 10:00, it's going to be nice to sleep in a bit. So it looks like 3's the magic number. After all, I just had 3 weeks off no school and now a 3 day weekend! Jackpot! 
     Over my weekend, I am doing lots! I have my sister's 4th birthday "pajama" party and family in town! I have lots of friends I want to be with and lots of homework too!!! I realized a way to do it all. I'm organizing my weekend! Yippee! Haha, well... I do want time for everything! 
     Let's see, I have Saturday, Sunday, and Monday off of school. I have 4 things I want to do. I would like to get my homework out of the way. So that means 2 things each day or 3 or 4 if I want to finish it all in one day. I am going to try to finish all my homework tonight so I will 2 and a half days off! On Saturday, I will help out with my sisters party at 5:00. So, if I get my chores done between 9:00 and 11:00 I'll have time to be with my friends!!! On Sunday, I am going to spend time with my family and relax. I might even, just possibly, paint my nails/toes. Monday, I will hang out with my friends and my family, and organize my backpack.
     I hope everyone has a great 3 day weekend and SLEEPS IN... a lot. Enjoy your weekend and like I said, SLEEP IN... or else! Nope, just kidding... but anyways................. SLEEP IN...
