I went over to the Curio Shop right after school today to help out. With Christmas coming up I am trying to get as many hours in at the Curio Shop as possible. I was having a great afternoon. With everyone getting ready for Christmas Uncle Arte’s shop has been packed.
The thing is, I hadn’t mentioned to Uncle Arte that I had failed my math test yesterday. I mean, I guess I was going to tell him at some point. I’m just not sure when exactly I was planning to do that. These things take time, you know?
I was just helping Dr. Quack wrap up a present for a ‘certain someone’ (what the heck does that mean, anyway) when I heard the bell over the door ring and when I looked around, I saw Ms. Cowoline walked in the door with Cowabelle.
Can you say Panic Stations? The last thing I needed was for Ms. Cowoline to start chatting with Uncle Arte and spill the beans about the test. I rushed over to try and intercept her, but then Cowabelle kept pestering me questions about this item and that. Every time I answered her and try to get away, she’d spot something else she was interested in. Man! Does Cowabelle want every single thing in the shop?
I finally managed to get away from Cowabelle when I saw Ms Cowoline walk up to the counter where Uncle Arte was working. I rushed over just in time to tell him that she knows how disappointed he must have been when he heard how poorly I did on my math test, but that he shouldn’t worry too much because I usually do pretty well in math and I just seem to be lacking focus right now. Uncle Arte turned and looked at me and that was all I needed. I just turned around and dashed out of there.
I don’t know what I’m going to do. If you saw the look of disappointment on Uncle Arte’s face… I think I’ve ruined his Christmas.
oh boy. sparky, you need to study. if you must keep things quiet and you see something (in this case someone or ms. cowaline) then just be cool. don’t panic but it’s better not to keep things quiet. tip: if you want to be a man then admit everything you do weather it’s good or bad.
Oh Sparky…you should have told your uncle right away.Make sure next time if that happens again you tell him even if your scared!
The #1 rule is “if you make a mistake, be big enough to admit it.” Everyone makes mistakes. My mother always used to say “the only person who doesn’t make a mistake is the person who’s doing NOTHING.” If Sparky had admitted his mistake in not studying and doing poorly on the test, Uncle Arte would help hi.
Don’t you get it!? He is not upset about the grade, He is upset that this is how he has to find out. You know that you can ALWAYS trust Uncle Arte with anything you need to tell him, but not telling him is like lying, and that would hurt his feelings too.
If you told him, he probably wouldn’t have been so mad. But, of course this all happened because, YOU DIDN”T STUDY!!!!
<3***tennissyd123***<3 (I decided not to change my thingy.)
I think you should have told him, he would not have gotten to mad at you if you. He might even help you. When your teacher told him he might get more mad at you because you did not tell him. :)
Sparky, don’t feel that way! And Cowabelle, please don’t get all like, I want this, i want that!
Sparky, Its only 1 math test! I don’t think you’ll ruin Arte’s Christmas!
I know, Cowabelle is acting like she should get EVERYTHING she wants.
OH NO NOW SPARKY IS GONNA GET IN EVEN MORE TROUBLE FOR RUNNING AWAY SHOULD HAVE TOLD ARTE EARLIER.
Poor Sparky!
I’m reading this right now! :mrgreen:
You should have told him, and then he wouldn’t have been so disappointed. You just keep messing up! :mrgreen:
You’re right! OMG he ran out of there!? Lol probably what I would’ve done honestly….. XD You’ll get better Sparky! I promise!
-PHN
Just try really hard on your next math test Sparky, I’m sure you’ll do better!
*~♥SwedishLatte♥~*
LOL a “certain someone”! That probably means you Sparky! Or a family member.
Anyway: you need to FOCUS. Remember that word when you are distracted from studying. Good luck! ;)
*Luv from LillyLuvie*
I know you’ll do better if you just study. ;) i wonder who dr Quack’s present is for. Ms Birdy?
♥♥♥~krystalkat~♥♥♥
Oh Sparky, how come you didn’t tell Arte the first chance you got? :( Don’t try and hide the news too much. Other wise you’re going to make your punishment worse.
I’m sure you didn’t ruin his Christmas. He’s probably just shocked on how you didn’t tell him your self. I hope you find a way to sort this all out.
the *~Webkinz Wizard~* :) (and p. s., Cowabelle please try and think about others and not just yourself. )
Aw, Sparky. It’s OK! He’s probably only disappointed that you didn’t tell him. That will not ruin his Christmas. He’ll talk to you maybe, ask why you didn’t tell him, or maybe tell you an anecdote (memory) about HIM failing a test!
Why is his UNCLE the one disappointed in him?? Not his parents? No offense.
I don’t know, there has never been any mention of his parents.
P.S: Anecdote can mean a short story also.
Dawn :mrgreen:
sparky! im sure u haven’t RUINED his christmas! just study next time! history keeps repeating itself! :lol:
Oh, no! As of now:
*Stoogles and Salley r at each other’s throats, and may never make up.
*Cowabelle is only thinking about herself this Christmas, and acting like she’s the “center of the universe”.
*Roberta is TIRED OUT from running here and there, trying 2 make handmade presents 4 her friends and family.
*Fluffington is being a greedy brat, making rude comments about everyone who is trying 2 help his party.
*Alex needs 2 know what 2 buy 4 Molly, his true <3…LOL
*Arte is upset because Sparky keeps failing his tests.
What's next?!
Let's just pray, friends, that by Christmas Day, everyone is at peace.
Happy Holiday from DreamsComeTrue ;)
But isn’t everything the center of the universe? (True fact :wink: )
Oh my sparky! to tell the truth, i haven’t really studied either, but i’m pretty good at it!

:roll: Oh geeze. Everyone is mad… :(
Yikes! You put most of the webkinz’s problems together and boy does it all look bad! Sure hope they all sort every thing out before Christmas.
And Sparky, see, this is what happens when you don’t study. :(
