It's Snowing Somewhere

So Labor Day Weekend was awesome!!! The whole Pack hit the beach on Monday, and we decided to rotisserie ourselves! It was a grand success, and come Tuesday we were all very sore, very red, and very grumpy. :)

I guess if I'm going to talk about my friends, I must give them codenames. Just in case. Can't be tossing out their identity to the world wide web, now, can we? So I guess I'll introduce the line-up.

Well, there's me, known as Nina for all intents and purposes. And then Pinta and Santa Maria, the other two ships who sailed with Columbus to explore the New World. (We had history together two years ago, and adopted the names then.) We are the three ships, a nice little trio of friends, and we complement each other very well. We all like to write. Both Pinta and Santa Maria are more athletitically inclined than I. Pinta actually plays on sports teams! Santa Maria plays the piano for sport. :)

Then there is Mito, who I've known since sixth grade. He goes by many many many names, but I really call him Mito so it's not much of a code name. Wonder Boy is this amazing kid who hates being touched and yet accepts the hugs we force on him with only mild protests.

Mateo and Chero are friends that typically get grouped together, but they're actually very different. Chero is a lot taller, for one. ;) But I love 'em both!

Ooh, and Gregory, who actually doesn't have any classes with any of us and yet goes out of his way to see us at lunch or in-between classes or after school.

And I have to figure out a code name for the last one...suggestions are accepted! If she were another ship, she'd be the Commodore, but that name is such a manly name for such a sweet and girly girl! So, any ideas?

Anyway, that's basically the Pack. The Core group. All my buds!!! YAY! So if I ever need to share a story about one of them in the future, I will use their CODE NAMES!!! But I really don't plan on talking about much personal stuff that has to do with them, because I don't think they'd appreciate it. :)

So, I'm going to bed now. I have a Spanish test tomorrow!

(Voy a dormir ahora. Teneré un examen del español mañana!)
