'''CITY-STATE TIME-BY MARIAM4/2'''

I don't think that we should be talking about dates for meetings so much anymore. since we always have to consult with our parents all the time... we'll just write on the wiki when we're free instead of talking about it during city-state time. we should be studying for every test too. we might get an award on our poster for greatest average. so let's quiz each other not just on our mid-greece quiz but also for our wordly wise! maybe that's included in our city-state avrege. u never know... she took the averege for Star Fisher!

[Brandon's mom:] The group will need to create a design for a t-shirt. I'm sure the teachers intend for this to be more than just all agreeing to wear a blue shirt. Check with Mrs. Burris. For design, you can use fabric paints to paint on t-shirts (shirts of any color), or you can create a design on the computer by grabbing images and adding text and then print it onto iron-on t-shirt transfers.  Please discuss with the group.

Add you comments here://Mariam: We'll have starfit blue t-shirts from walmart or target. then, on the front, we'll add iron on letters that spell out chios (obviously) and we'll put our own handprints on it. on the back, we'll have a special number that we chose ourselves, and our greek nick name (for example my nick name is Athena!)

'''Mariam 4/3:'''So now are we deciding on changing the t-shirt from starterfit to regular? Grant... u also said we could put a picture of something that had to do with the god or goddess we have, right? so since grant's Dionysus, she'll put something that has to do with acting or wine!

'''mariam4/2:''' aw... we'll need to find out a date when the majority of us is free INCLUDING GRANT!!! for the t-shirts because we're doing it at her house. so we've all agreed on having our # on the back of the t-shirt silver and our name in gold. what color are we doing for the name chios.

I bought royal blue t-shirts for everyone. What color letters do you all want for "CHIOS"?  What color for your nicknames?  What color paint do you want for the handprint?

Gold letters will be very hard to find and won't show up very well against the royal blue. I would recommend WHITE.

'''Mariam4/2''':that's great! what time and date r we talking. and guys i think grant's right. we've succeeded getting emily over 2 brandon's house but we need to be more open-minded and flexible so we can allow grant's tight scheduel into ours. grant... list all the dates u r free for anything. we'll take those dates and use them for our meetings. everyone chip in and tell each other what days we can come. we'll do the best we can on catching everyone up on everything if they missed a group meeting out of school. Since we all agreed on going to brandon's house on the sun. after easter from 12:00-3:00, i think we should make the flag at school since grant hasn't had a chance to make it to any of our meetings. Of course... we'll consult with mrs. burris before we do anything.

[brandon] lol. The painting on Monday will take some time, because we will have to do multiple layers of paint and different colors. So we will probably be playing a lot of lasertag, nerf tag, etc. Mariam, bring your brother's nerf gun and any darts he has on Monday. And Grant, we're not purposely setting dates you can't come to, you just have a really tight schedule. We'll try and work that in (intergrate). Im just happy your not Grant Haley. His schedule's a nightmare. He has no free time. I'd go CRAAAAAZZZYYY! And Grant, yes I know you think I already am, but lets try not to diss eachother on the Wiki |:-]

Again, make sure to bring your swimsuits on Monday. I'm planning a special party at the end of the Greek unit with you guys just to come over and swim, climb, etc. I still need permission, but Im hoping everyone can. We'll try extra-special hard to get everyone there ;)

'''Mariam 4/3:''' Sounds great. Brandon... i'll have to get permission from my brother if i can use his nerf gun and darts... if he says no, i guess we'll have to live with it! Guys i think we're doing a great job and we're working together better than average. We've made excelent progress and have done an almost perfect job on getting everyone together at one place... but it's not our falts... we all have different scheduals! Let me clarify... are we meeting at brandons house for a third time on friday the 13th for another chariot meeting so grant can help? it won't be fare if we don't because she says she really wants to be a part of the chariot and wants to do some serious building... right grant???

[Brandon's Mom 4/2] The work on the chariot yesterday went very well. Thank you everyone! The next meeting will be on Monday April 9th at 1:30pm. Bring your swim suits for hot tub after. The group will paint the chariot, let it dry, and then apply any stickers you want. suggestions - "flames" on the side and the word, "CHIOS" letter stickers on the back.
