My name's family tree
Here is my name family tree:
Juliana- feminine form of Iulianus (see JULIAN). This was the name of a 4th-century saint and martyr from Nicomedia, and also of the Blessed Juliana of Norwich, also called Julian, a 14th-century mystic and author. The name was also borne by a 20th-century queen of the Netherlands. In England, this form has been in use since the 18th century, alongside the older form Gillian.
Julian- From the Roman name Iulianus, which was derived from JULIUS. This was the name of the last pagan Roman emperor, Julian the Apostate (4th century). It was also borne by several early saints, including the legendary Saint Julian the Hospitaller. This name has been used in England since the Middle Ages, at which time it was also a feminine name (from Juliana, eventually becoming Gillian).
Julius- From a Roman family name which was possibly derived from Greek ιουλος (ioulos) "downy-bearded". Alternatively, it could be related to the name of the Roman god JUPITER. This was a prominent patrician family of Rome, who claimed descent from the mythological Julus, son of Aeneas. Its most notable member was Gaius Julius Caesar, who is known for his clever conquest of Gaul. After a civil war he became the dictator of the Roman Republic, but was eventually stabbed to death in the senate.
Although this name was borne by several early saints, including a pope, it was rare during the Middle Ages. It was revived in Italy and France during the Renaissance, and was subsequently imported to England.
Jupiter- From Latin Iupiter, which was from dyeu-pater, composed of the elements dyeus (see ZEUS) and pater "father". Jupiter was the supreme god in Roman mythology. He presided over the heavens and light, and was responsible for the protection and laws of the Roman state. This is also the name of the fifth and largest planet in the solar system.
Zeus- The name of a Greek god, related to the old Indo-European god *dyeus whose name probably meant "shine" or "sky". In Greek mythology he was the highest of the gods. After he and his siblings defeated the Titans, Zeus ruled over the earth and humankind from atop Mount Olympus. He had control over the weather and his weapon was a thunderbolt.
Lynne- Variant of LYNN
Lynn- From an English surname which was derived from Welsh llyn "lake". Before the start of the 20th century it was primarily used for boys, but it has since come to be more common for girls. In some cases it may be thought of as a short form of LINDA or names which end in lyn or line.
Linda- Originally a medieval short form of Germanic names containing the element linde meaning "soft, tender". It also coincides with the Spanish word linda meaning "beautiful".
Conradi- meaning daring/experienced counsel

What is the cat doing in the garage?
This morening, when I was leaveing for school, I opened the garage door and steped out and heard purring and felt something rubbing my leg? I looked down and saw Shankie was in the garage. What is the cat doing in the garage. I sat and petted him, makeing sure I didn't touch his wounds. "You silly cat!" Turns out Mom had left the garage door open. I took him the fence and said "up." He jumped onto the fence, and then climbed in the backyard. I went into the backyard, and help him get down (he has a hurt paw, the poor thing) and gave him some food. When I left he was very happy.

Fat Cat, Tiny Kitten
My Cat's name is Shankie. He lives in the backyard. I did not name him. He used to belong to the people who live behind us, but they got a new pet and forgot about him. So now he is my cat.
If cats could be war vetarns, the Shankie would be one. He's one tomcat who has been in alot of fights. He scars on his back, and a chunk of his left are missing. He's almost deaf, blind in one eye, and almost blind in the other. His nose is okay. He still has his claws. I know this because I've seen him strech. He has black & white fur and is bald in places. He loves my whole family. When we pet he purrs. When I go to the backyard he comes and rubs my legs. He may be an old, fat cat, but he's MY old, fat.
We also have a female cat, Dapple, who had kittens! I think the dad is a tabby. They are 10-ish weeks old and so cute! George-with-sock is a orange tabby with white feet. (S?)He is very playful. Tiger and Dapple JR. are very shy and I don't see them much. But faviorte is Puss-in-Boots. (S?)He is a small black and white cat with white feet and green eyes, and is a fast learner. They also live in my backyard.

San Fransico
I am never going to complain that the ride to my Grandma's house is long again. My knees are stiff from the car ride and I got home yesterday. The car ride (there and back) was 2 movies (one that was good and one that totally didn't do the book justice), one and a half books, at lest 15 stops at the 76, 2 bags of ruffles, 1 can of pringles, 2 bags of peanut m&ms, at least 10 bottles of orange soda, one bottle of vitamin water, one bottle of blue Gatorade, 1 bag of hot Cheetos,1 baby bottle pop, 10 Cd plaid numerous times, and 5 traffic jams. Can we take a plane next time?
The hi-lights of the trip: me getting sick at the hotel, me being the calm one for a change (I am super afraid of heights and i completely forgot about the hills, etc...), the Macy's their (its 8+ stories tall and only the girls stuff) ice scateting
and the golden gate bridge, the bay bridge ( I actually blindfolded myself.) Oh, and getting lost a lot.

We all live in a yellow submairen, a yellow submairen, a yellow submairen.

This is my grand opening!!! (That other post was Mr. Smith)
Welcome!!! This is my blog.
For those of you who were in my history class, and i answered a question for the 6th graders, here my story behind that.
Once apon a time there was a little first grader named Julie who was very smart. Her was also very sad because her Best Friend Victoria moved to another school. Julie's nice Teacher named Mrs. C saw she was very smart, so at Julie's parent teacher confrince, she told Julie's mom that next I would problely skip a grade. So Julie's Mom said okay, and the next year Julie went to 3rd grade, and she liked her teacher and hand fun with were her friends who didn't care she was younger than them. One day Julie and her friend Holly were walking to the lunch Arbor. For some reson, Victoria was there. And When Vicortia said hi, Julie was so startaled that she dropped her pizza. It was Domino's pizza day, so Julie was very sad about that devolment, and she was crying, so the nice lunch lady gave her 2 slices of pizza. And then she was happy, but also confused, because she went over to Victoria's house every Sunday and Victoria didn't say anything. And when she told Victoria this, she told her it was a surpise and if she could have her extra slice of pizza please. They are stil BFFs to this day, unless you are reading this on a they when they are having a fight, 'cause then they aren't. Oh, and sometimes Julie gets mixed up sometimes because sometime she still thinks she didn't skip 2nd grade and gets vey confused. You will know when she's confused, because she will usally say "I'm officaly confused now."
The End
