It isn't really windy, I was just saying I love it when it is windy. It was 60mph once and everyone was complaining, but I was loving it.
-
Yeah, but when you're a 4th grader, 40mph winds aren't the greatest.

Understandable.

Indubitably.

Today my confirmation teacher asked me if I even knew what that word means. I told him yes, and he asked me to define it. I answered him. Honestly, I wouldn't use it if I didn't know what it means.
-
Same here.Why use a word you don't know?
-
No idea. What if suddenly a 2nd grader comes out with a super long and complicated sentence? Then you might ask.
-
I looked up the most complicated sentence. This is what popped up.
Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo. One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got into my pajamas I'll never know. All the faith he had had had had no effect on the outcome of his life. -
That's 4 sentences, not one.

I like the had part
-
So do I. I don't understand the buffalo part, though.

Our class went to the Anne Frank play today. It was way different from how I thought it was going to be, but most of the strange parts were rather funny.
