Hiiii!!! Dont know if you guys remeber me.... Its been a little while. My account is on my school laptop so I wasnt on it like at all the summer. Status update! Im going into 8th grade, and startin on september 5th. My school has banned backpacks in the hallways and im finding out my teachers on friday. My softball team also was in the championship 4 weeks in a row! and our town put all of thee trophies on display. Now the best of us (includes me) are moving on to an amazing team.

Hi, I remember you! Congratulations on softball! My school banned backpacks too, not sure why.

They say its a saftey thing but, pretty sure kids have had back packs for forever. I do not like it.

Really? That's...interesting. How do you carry your books?

Yay! I'm going into 8th grade too! Congrats on your team winning!!!

So far it great for me! how is it for you?

That's great to hear! I'm actually enjoying school quite a bit! It's a lot more work (and notes!) but I like a challenge! Thanks for asking, by the way! 😃

Im newer my name is @tennislover_omg and it used to be @dogsareawsome but I changed it so.... I guess welcome back!

Hey, it's me serene_euphoria! I changed my name but it's still me! I'm a seventh grader now! We started the fourteenth, and I luv my schedule!

Yay! So glad you’re back! Congrats on all your achievements!

This week's quote: Education in our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for it today." Have a great rest of your day!!

Agreed! I always try to have a perfect attendance record 😂

Really? I wish my school would do something like that. I was always the only person who didn’t miss school for even a single day 😆

Eh, you didn't miss out on much. I only got a certificate, and a wimpy spirit stick.

Hey everyone! So, I'm going to be gone from DOGO for about a week. My sis is going to college but we have to drive her there, and it's all the way in the South. So anyways, I just wanted y'all to know so you knew I wasn't ditching you guys!! 😆 I'll be sure to post as soon as we get back home!! 😃💗

PCC!! 😄 It's a neat school, I'm going to go there too when the time comes!

Hmm, cool!!! I wanna go to OLLU. It's in San Antonio.

That's really neat!! I've been to San Antonio many times and it's definitely a cool city! Have you been on the river walk?

Yeah, pretty big!! It's a school down in Florida, the name escapes me now (ugh!) but she's excited!!

Congrats to your sister! We’ll miss you! ❤️
