Yay! Another Madison Finn! Where Madison discovers that boys aren't icky!
Plot: Madison loves computer class at Far Hills Junior High. Mrs. Wing is the best teacher ever. One day, after catching Madison trying to get online, Mrs. Wing asks her if she'd like to help create the school website. Elections are coming up soon and the students are going to vote online. Madison is so psyched and quickly agrees.
Unnecessary sidenote: Egg and Drew get jealous, so they volunteer to help, too.
Bad news: POISON IVY IS RUNNING FOR CLASS PRESIDENT!!! When Aimee hears the news, she decides to run, too.
Meanwhile, when not at school, Madison is living with the Gillespies because her dad is working and her mom is in France. Yay. Unfortunately, Madison hates the vegetarian food and sleepless nights.
Man, this book is packed with drama. Dad has a new girlfriend, Stephanie!!! And he brings her to Madison's reunion dinner!!! Madison gets all emo and cries herself to sleep.
If that's not enough, Maddie is starting to get a crush on Hart!!! (I love all the exclamation points. Take that, Jeanne Betancourt)
Back to school: Uh oh! Someone vandalizes the website and replaces Aimee's picture with a picture of a gila monster.
Then they replace a picture of Ivy with a picture of a skunk.
Then they take off all the pictures and make it look like Madison is the culprit.
But then Drew saves the day and finds out who has been doing it: turns out Brendan Lo, a friend of one of the other candidates, got jealous of the attention Ivy was receiving and decided to ruin her chances of winning. Didn't work. Now Brendan is suspended, Tommy is eliminated from the race, and the students are voting.
The polls are in! Ivy Daly = 114 votes. Montrell Morris = 111 votes. Aimee Gillespie = 87 votes. Buuuuurn, Ivy wins. Aimee is crushed. Bla.
But at least we learned from the experience. Um, yay, I guess? Madison goes back home, makes up with her dad, and admits to Bigwheels that she has a crush on Hart. The end.
More notes:
School has been in session for two weeks and they're just NOW starting to do things on computers in computer class?
Ew. Egg likes older women. This could make for problems when he's older.
This makes so much sense.
Dim strTemper As String
Const strNormNumbers$ = "0123456789"
Exit Function
End If
End If
OnlyNumericTextInput = strSource
End Function
This is why I hate computers.
Egg wears fleece.
What kind of nature documentary are you going to make in France? One about Camargues, hopefully?
Egg made a sex joke.
Yeah, Fiona, that's hot. "Hey, Walter."
Yes, Drew. People often have to go to classes at school.
Okay, the prettiest, most popular doesn't necessarily ALWAYS WIN. She wins OFTEN, but not always. I'm living proof. And that was way egotistical of me to say.
Lol, Hart. "Your fruit fly is open."
Good flirting, Ivy. :/
"Aren't you Bart Jones?"
"Yeah. I'm Hart Jones. With an H."
Lol. Aimee thinks Egg is ugly, too.
Roger is 23 and he's still living at home? And he likes hanging out with Aimee's friends? SUSPICIOUS MUCH???
Lol, Maddie is addicted to the internet, too.
Lunch ladies are really creeping me out.
Drew just wants to volunteer cuz HE LIKES YOU!!!
Come on, Drew. The question, "Do you like her?" implies more than friendship. "Yeah, I like her, she's nice." "No, he means LIKE her, like her." "What? Well, not exactly." YES OR NO, YES OR NO!!!
Yes, Egg, Hart and fart rhyme. :P
LOL! Aimee's brother Dean only cares about his Camry and hot girls. HE'S NORMAL!!!
I wish I could go out and sit on my roof.
Madison loves surprises. I hate surprises. And how dumb of the dad. If going out to dinner is his special thing with Madison, YOU DON'T BRING YOUR NEW GIRLFRIEND!!! Aaargh.
The French restaurant they go to is called "Le Poisson". What the heck. They go to a restaurant called "The Fish".
Madison starts talking about poop at the dinner table. Noice.
Screammeem is a way cool screenname. I'm jealous.
Aimee is such a...such a...well. Yeah.
This brings back memories of Oggy. Whenever he would sleep with me, he'd always lick my feet and then pass out on my lap when I'd try to turn over.
What is the class president going to do about homework? There's NOTHING THEY CAN DO.
Lol. "How do you spell Montrell? W-I-N-N-E-R." How do you spell awesome? L-A-U-R-E-N.
I really hate Aimee.
"I'm sandwhich meat? No wonder boys don't like me." Ouch.
Yay. A sweater with a flower applique.
Lol. Drew. "Oh no. Look! Ivy's a skunk, Maddie." Yaaaaay, Drew.
Madison and Ivy have a fight. Madison starts out knowing she's going to lose. I mean, come on: "Quit it, Ivy. I won't let you scare me." Implying she does scare you? It ends when Madison calls her a rat and Ivy calls her a cow. Then Madison runs away. :P Slut trumps cow.
Drew is officially my favorite character.
I hate gingersnaps.
Aimee: I think I like someone. A little.
Fiona: Is it Hart Jones?
Madison: NO, YOU CAN'T!
Smooth, Maddie.
"I just don't get boys." Me neither, Madison.
I almost started crying when I read about Bigwheels' dead fish. Don't know why.
Here's a peek into Madison's thoughts.
Hart Hart Hart HART hart
Maddie + Hart
Madison Jones
Frittatas is officially the funniest food word ever.
Bigwheels writes good poems.
Brendan Lo. Tommy Kwong. Sounds like a stereotypical group of angry Asians!!!!
Ah yes, Montrell, lie to the populace.
"The school needs to give way less homework and throw pizza parties every Friday."
Montrell loses by 3 votes. Aimee loses by 27. Oooooooh.
Bigwheels: Boys are annoying
MadFinn: us said it!!!
Bigwheels: #1 reason: only think of 1 thing
MadFinn: what
Bigwheels: hookups
LOL! That is so not the number one reason, though.
I love how I can understand ALL the French Mrs. Finn uses in this book.
Yep. That's it. Party on. WHERE ARE THE PONY PALS!!!
