Spring Break!

So, spring break is coming up and I'm super excited! I'm going to Florida! Me and my dad are going to fly there this Thursday after school, then my mom is going to come and join us on Saturday! I'll get to see all of my family, including my adorable baby cousin! There are so many things to do, including just hanging out at our condo! And, I might meet one of my friends down there, and we would go to Disney World together! That would be so cool! I can't wait! I'll keep posting and let you know how it went!

Hunger Games!!!!

I know this is a little late, but as you know the midnight premier of Hunger Games was Thursday the 22nd! Me and some friends went together and had lots of fun! We saw a lot of people there that we knew and even a teacher! If you haven't seen Hunger Games yet you definately should. It's totally worth a trip to the theater! Comment and tell me what you thought of the movie!

Working In MN

This post is about minimum wage and working hours for teens with jobs in Minnesota. This is an assignment for my 21st century class. Minimum wage for the state of Minnesota can be divided into three different groups. For a large employer the minimum wage is $6.15 an hour. For a small employer it's $5.25, and the training wage is $4.90.

During the summer a worker under the age of 16 may not work before 7  a.m. or after 9 p.m., or more than 40 hours per week or more than 8 hours every 24 hours. During the school year they are not allowed to work any later than 7 p.m., no more than 3 hours per day, and no more than 18 hours a week. The only restrictions that apply to a teenage worker between the ages of 16 or 17 is that they may not work later than 11 p.m. or earlier than 5 a.m. on a school day.

High School

It's official! Registration ended last night, so I'm officially signed up for classes at OHS. I'm pretty nervous. I'm afraid I'll lose touch with some of my best friends! I just can't help thinking that after summer we might not even see each other until graduation! I wish everyone luck in the years of high school, and hope I stay in touch with you!

Pop Fiesta

Last Thursday we had our Pop Fiesta concert. The girls sang 'Set Fire to the Rain' and a 'Rumor Has It/Someone Like You' mash up. We had an awesome time! Also, the 7/8th band played 'Poker Face', 'I Gotta Feelin', 'Sweet Caroline', and 'Viva La Viva'. And to end the concert, Jazz band played 'Crazy Train'!
