Weekend

Finally, the weekend is here!!!!!!!!!! :) And of course I leave the computer for five minutes (signed into the blog) and my brother puts up a post on it, then totally denied it!!!!!!!!!!! Not much planned for the weekend. Homework tomorrow night, Pilgrimage Sunday.

Not many people know what the Pilgrimage is so this a quick explianation. People who plan to walk the Pilgrimage collect pledges ffrom people. These pledges go to different places depending on which school you go to. My school walks from the school building to the market square, which takes about an hour. Since its 3 Catolic schools that meet there we have a mass. After that all 3 schools do a walk around town, that ends back at the market square where you can get lunch. When you're done you walk back to your school sign in and go home. Many people walk this because the money does towards a good cause, as well as the fact that you can get 5 hours toward your 10 hours of community service for the year. Sometimes the teachers will doing something wierd sing at an assembly~ always bad singers, some will wear the kilt and uniform for a day, one to start raising money shaved his head~ well known for his hair, the person who teaches the chem classes agreed to shave her head if the spare kids raise more money than her first class (which I'm in, we raised alot of money, even if it is per capita we should still beat them). This is one time of year when you see alot of school spirit.
