Valentine's Day Plans

My plans for Valentines Day!

Almost every Gallagher Girl will assemble after lunch on the 14th (we have the day half off) and watch romance movies. It is a tradition we have carried on for years. Every year, the current Sophomore Class hosts. We decorate the whole lounge and we get to pick the movies. We cycle through the Sophomore girls, in alphabetical order. When your turn comes, you choose the next movie! Fun, right.

Normally we have 99% of the girls, plus some of the teachers. The headmistress used to come, I'm told, but then she got married. We decided to continue this tradition even though the boys were here. Quite a few of the girls have dates. The headmistress agreed to give them passes to town for dinner, and most of the girls accepted. A few of the girls though said NO and told their boyfriend (who gets a boyfriend in two months?) that they would be staying at the academy.

Jess hasn't said what she wants to do. So I'm not sure if Jess and David are going into town or if she is going to stay.

I am also not sure what the other boys are going to do. Will they join us? Go do their own guy thing? What?

I'll keep you updated.

Writing On My Blog About My Blog

So, my blog has turned into interactions between Alec and Me. Which may be kind of annoying to some of you (somehow I don't think so though), but that is basically all that is going on in my life. 

I suppose I can talk about how much I miss my family...

The new book I'm reading, except it's classified....

So anyway, I've been talking about the girl part of my life, I can't talk too much about the spy part of my life, so maybe I'll say something about my blog. 

Who knows about my blog?

Well. All of you. You mean at my school? Just me and Headmistress Morgan. I haven't told any of my friends or anything, but I am intending to tell them about it at the end of the school year. They'll most likely all want to guest blog, so be ready.

How can you even be writing about this? 

Well, one of our alumni, Amirah, had to leave our school eight years ago do to the fact that she was being hunted by the circle.  She changed her name and wrote a "fiction" series about a snobby boarding school that actually trained spies. Yep. That's right. Amirah and Liz went through Cammie's cov-ops reports and diaries (with her permission....I hope), wrote a book and published it for all the world to see. 

So, You've read the books? 

Yes. Duh. I have also read her Heist Society series, and am interested in her Embassy Row series. I don't think they are based off real people. At least I have never heard of Kat (Why does she have my name? There can't be that many Kats!) 

Am I super excited about have 1000+ page views?

Ummmm. Duh. 

Just Kidding. You, my beloved followers, are such bloody awesome people! Thank you for reading my stuff!  

Any questions for your followers? 

Yes! As you know, all bloggers LOVE comments and receiving emails from their readers. So I'd love if you would comment and tell me what you want to hear about.'

Gallagher Alumni from Amirah's series? 

Classes? What are we learning? 

Also, I am planning on posting about me. So if you have any questions (Favorite movie. color, class, book, etc)  let me know!   Comment or Email me! 

What is my email?Well, you can find it on my google+page (which can be found here) or Katthegallaghergirl@gmail.com   

++++++++++++++++++++++++++
UPDATE! Please note that I will be posting my answers to your questions sometime next week. So you have to email me or comment BEFORE then.

Cheers mates

Abby and the Babies

Abby went into labor and Joe drove her and a frantic Townsend to the local hospital. They would have used the school hospital, but everyone is gone for the holidays.

And yes I said babies. She's having twins. I said that right?

Anyway, since I'm not needed I volunteered to take care of Suzie the kitten, and Butter and Carl, Townsend's corgis.

Do you have any idea how hard it is to type or read with jhngfcsd

Seriously, if they dance on the keyboard one more time...

Christmas Dinner

So I got board and decided to go to the kitchens. I know my term for training is over, but I like the kitchens.

I found our awesome chef making green bean casserole. And I was like: What the Heck? I didn't know you made green bean casserole?

He told me he had got these recipes from the girls who had to stay. (He didn't know I was going to stay, so he hadn't gotten one from me) He did this so the girls could feel more at home during Christmas Break. I stayed and helped him and I made some of the recipes my family always makes. Like cinnamon rolls, and Bread Pudding.

Mom and Dad's Merry Christmas Mission

I just got a call from my Dad. (No cell phone. Duh. He called the office) I rushed down to talk to him. He has to go on a mission. Mom is going with him. I will have to spend the holidays at Gallagher. Not that I don't like my school, just I was so excited to see my parents and I never suspected this could happen. Mom and Dad are mostly retired. Mom mostly just teaches and does office work. Dad travels around a lot giving talks and briefings. An old mission opened up. They are going as their old covers (romantic couple get away) returning years later.

They called to let me know and ask if that would be ok. Of course I said "Yes, go ahead. I'll be fine."

But I'm a spy. We lie.

Thanksgiving Break/Cammie

Christmas isn't that far away! Thanksgiving break is coming up too! I'm so excited!

Some of the girls will be staying at GA over the Thanksgiving break, because their families are too far away or on missions somewhere...

I fully plan to go back to...where ever i live....to be with my family over break.

But for some people, coming back to GA IS coming home.

Maybe that is why Cammie Morgan showed up today?

(And yes,  Liz is flipping out.)

The Elections

The Elections happened here too.

The teachers and seniors all packed up and drove off to the polling place and voted.



You would think most of us would be for Hillary.



You are mistaken.

When you live a life of secrets, you understand how important those secrets are.

We at Gallagher were allowed to read the classified reports on Bengazi.

We understand how serious these emails are that Hillary was so careless with.



Solidiers died because of her.

Agents and Assets were compromised.
When agents are compromised, they can get caught and thrown in jail.
When assets get caught they are killed. Them and all their kin. 


People died and it's on her.


We don't like Trump either. 
But "Anyone but the Witch"

A Girl Sure Loves A New Pair of Shoes

I found these cute little shoe. OK
The shoe looks like a formal loafer, but look: Hidden COMPARTMENT!!!!!
Lily will SO freak when she sees this ( She designs stuff like this. She LOVES making gadgets!)








Somtimes, though, a girl just needs that perfect pair of shoes to finish off her outfit. Her cover.
Look how cute! Of course, I hear it already. Heels are VERY bad for fighting and running and stuff.
Well hey. We have whole classes on how to walk, dance, run and yes, kill people in heels.
After all, you can't show up at an embassy dinner in flip flops!


                                                                                         And Of course, we all LOVE the tall black boots. (these heels look a little flimsy to me)                                                               And this looks like somethings you'd wear on a date with Oliver Queen:                     We all kind of want to look like this actress. She looks tough and totally able to kill anyone who chooses to mess with her

                                                                                                                                                               But we normally wear something that looks a little like this:

    

Into the Woods

The Gallagher Mansion has been rebuilt. They tried to make it as much like it used to be as possible. A stone castle blown in from the past.

But it somehow didn't have the same feel.

The Woods were a different matter. I was raised in the country and i spent a lot of time in the woods.My Dad taught wilderness survival (when he wasn't working with the Government)

I hunted, hiked, camped. I lived, loved, and breathed the woods.

They told me not to stray off the trail. Land mined, they said. And it was and you shouldn't.

But I know landmines, and I know woods. I found a lovely little path. You have to walk on this 3 little rocks, and on to a fallen tree. But it isn't. This tree has been here for a long, long time.

Anyway, you walk across it. From the end of the fallen tree, it you stand on the root ball, you can grab onto a rope hanging from a tree. It's camouflaged to blend into the woods, and i only found it because i went to sit on the end on the tree, amoungst the cool roots sticking up in all directions and felt something hit me in the face. i pulled on it and it stayed put. If you look at it at just the right angle, you can see it stretching up into a near by oak tree.

When i came back the next day, i climbed up it. From the tree i found a little hut hidden up there. A tiny platform. And rope bridges made of the same camo rope. Some had camouflaged material and some had moss and old gunk hanging off it. the deeper into the mined woods i went, the more....posh...the tree huts got. Until i found "the hub"

 

                                                                A tree house with ropes leading off in all different directions.

I found some pretty old things, from Gallagher girls of the past.

Notes for an ancient cov-ops class. just saying Miss Julie from long ago, Your teacher and mine should totally meet up. They would love each other.  But then everyone loves Abby

I'm super busy right now. Do you have any idea how much homework you have to do at a spy school?
But you only get to go into town once in awhile, so when your favorite teacher offers you  a ride into town, you say yes.
I can't post from the school ( with all the tech blocking my cheap electronics) so I'm sitting in the Roseville Library.
I will write the rest of my blogs from the school ( on my laptop) and then bring it into town.
It's annoying. It has to be checked over every time I leave and when i get back.


I look like a normal girl. Typing away. They don't know my secret. They never can.
There are girls my age sitting near by. But i can't say hi ( I CAN , in 14+ languages) but yet, i can't.

Ms. Sutton is back, from her "errand." Time for me to go home.

My name is Katherine.

My friends call me Kat

Either way, I stress on the K.
Partly because I like "K" , but mainly because a few years ago an evil crazy ex-student named Catherine, blew up my school.


Maybe you heard about it in the news?
About the prep school for rich girls in Virginia?

If you think the Gallagher Academy For Exceptional Young Women is just a place for snobby heiresses, then you, like the rest of the population of America, don't know just how exceptional we are.

I know.

Because I go to  school for spies.
