Problems!

For today's post I am going to write about my day at school on Friday. I don't know why it was a half day, but I was happy because school was shorter. The first thing I did on Friday was obviously wake up for my bed. Then I went downstairs and changed my clothes. I tried to wake up my sister up before, but she never listens. Its always so frustrating to me and I have to take all the covers of her and pull her out. After that the two of us ate breakfast and watched TV. When it was time for me to drop her to the bus stop the both of us put on our shoes and left the house. 

                                                     When I came back for dropping her I did my hair and then checked to see if I complete all my homework. After that I watched a movie on the TV called "Resident Evil". By the time the movie was almost finished I had to go. Of course I really wanted to finish the movie, but I had no choice because then my bus would leave me. The bus driver doesn't like to wait. At the bus stop I kicked some ice and just sat their talking with one of my friends. The two of us talk about a game called "Overwatch". When we're done the bus was right around the corner.  

                                                                       When I got to school my class was already on their first period. Thats because my bus is sometime slate. For that reason I had to eat school breakfast when I came back from first period. The first period was scene. During science we took a quiz about classifying living things. After that the class reviewed their quizzes and handed them to the teacher. By then science was over and we had a new class. It was Social Studies. The reason I hated Social Studies was all of the bad kids weren't listening. They were continuously talking over and over again.

                                                                                                Literally half the class got lunch detentions. One person had to go to the dean and another went purposely to try and blame the teacher. Luckily for me I was behaving and the teacher didn't think I was doing anything bad. Thats why I didn't have lunch detention. That whole period or 45 minutes was put into yelling at the whole class and I had to wait until it was over. When the teacher had to talk to one of the students because they weren't listening the rest of the class would make loud noises. One of them even stood on top of a chair and started dancing!

I was done with my class. If I could switch classes I would, but since thats no possible I'm stuck with these guys for the rest of the year and you know something? Nothing like this ever happened last year, but since all these new kids started coming in it became worse! The whole Social Studies problem all started because some kid got a lunch detention for reading. Then the whole class started yelling it wasn't right and they got lunch detention. To be honest I guess it was a bit unfair, but you don't have to yell so loudly that the class on the upper floor can hear you!

A Short Story

For today's post I am going to write about what I did today at school. This isn't going to be very long, only about 3 paragraphs. Anyway lets get started. Today at school I started off my day in Art. My bus came a little late so I didn't eat breakfast in the morning. However my teacher did let me eat it while we had science. During Art class my class was doing something called a , "Tangle". I didn't really know what it was at first, but after she showed us how to do it the whole drawing process was easy. Though I wasn't able to cover the whole paper I made a wonderful design that I think was amazing. 

After Art we had Science and I ate breakfast. I was so happy that the breakfast was pancakes because the wolves are really bad and whenever you come late and want breakfast and you come late all you get are leftovers. The leftovers aren't good most of the time because the waffles are soggy and the cereal have no milk cartons on the table. During science we were finishing our outline and then my class headed to ELA. At ELA I started doing the "Do Now". You should already know what the "Do Now" is if you go to schools like mine. Then we were talking about brainstorms and our end of term grades which our teacher doesn't know yet.

After ELA my next class was Math and in Math we worked on our end of term test. Our teacher wouldn't tell us our grades because she said we have to check them online. The dumb thing is that my password isn't working for the website where we can check our grades, and my dad tried to change it but it still didn't work. Eventually my teacher just put the answers on the board for us to see and check our mistakes. At Lunch time I had chicken tenders and they were so good. Especially with the barbecue sauce. During recess though since it was too cold outside we had to stay indoor and watch a movie. Thats all I did today. 

The Fourteenth Goldfish

For today’s post I want to tell you guys the new book that I’m reading starting today. It’s called, “The Fourteenth Goldfish”. I really like this book and for today I want to walk you through what I read so far. Before I start I don’t know what the cover of the book looks like because there is no picture, but I imagine its something related to a goldfish. In addition to that this is the only book I could find that had a story because me dad didn’t bring new library books.

“The Fourteenth Goldfish”

It all starts with a kid named ,“Ellie”. When sh was in preschool she had a teacher named, “Starlily”. “Starlily” would always tell the kids in her class to do what they were supposed to and made sure they learned how to sit still during snack time (I don’t get this rule because in my grade we move all the time during snack), sneezing on our elbows, and cleaning up after ourselves. One day before it was time for dismissal, “Starlily” gave all her thirteen students a goldfish. Then she emailed the parents telling them that it was supposed to teach them the meaning of life. 

To Ellie the weird thing was that while all her classmates’s goldfish died, her’s didn’t. It puzzled her greatly, and the goldfish lasted until 4th grade. When she came back home she saw the goldfish upside down and called her mother. “It lasted for 7 years!”, she said. Then her mother admitted something to Ellie. The goldfish that she originally got from “Starlily” died two hours after she brough it home. Afterward Ellie’s mother constantly bought new fish every time one of them died.

As soon as Ellie learned everything she asked her mother if she could get a dog (I actually can’t believe that after learned her goldfish died a long time ago she wants another pet that will eventually die). Ellie’s mother said that a dog wouldn’t be possible because dogs needed all the space they could get and it was safe for a dog to be cramped up in such a small house. They barely had any backyard space.

Then after hearing her mother’s response Ellie went into the living room and worked on her puzzle. It was almost done and in total was 1000 pieces. While she was working on it her babysitter, “Nicole” came and asked her if she was still gonna keep on working on hat and Ellie replied with a yes. After a few minutes her mother got a call from a police department. When Ellie’s mother hung up she told Nicole and Ellie that Ellie’s grandfather was in the police department for something. Looks like your going to have to read the book to find out.

Dragonwings

For today’s post I’ll talk about a book that I’m reading in school. Its called, “DragonWings”. I’m not reading it because its fun, but because its a school book and we have tests on it. Still its pretty fun. Thats why I’m going to  walk you through the first few pages of the book and give you a visualization of what its about. Before I start walking you through the story I want to say that the cover of this book is showing two people looking at the sky. A young boy and his father, so its not a giant dragon just covering the whole picture. Anyway lets get started.

                                                  At the very beginning it talks about a boy who has always wanted to know about the “Land of the Golden Mountain”. However his mother never wanted to talk about it. All he knows is that before he was born his father left the “Middle Kingdom” or “China” as the white demons call it, to go the “Land of the Golden Mountain”. The “Land of the Golden Mountain” is a place where men can work for money. Lots of money wee to be made in the demon land, but it was very dangerous.

                                                                                              His mother never wanted to talk about it and whenever she could, found something wrong with the farm that needed fixing. Only when the boy asks about the “Land of the Golden Mountain”. The family had lots of debts to pay off and if they wanted father to come back they had to get money for his ticket back home. His mother always said that they were the people of the “Tang” and they were a tough and patience race. In case you don’t know the white demons were actually “Americans”. The “Tang” people call them white demons.

The boy honestly didn’t know about his father just as much as the “Land of the Golden Mountain”, but his mother let him know one important fact about his father. He was a maker of the best kites. Before the empress of the “Middle Kingdom” would want his father to make her a kite and people who had the chance to buy his kite kept them as heirlooms because they were so well made. When the boy (Moon Shadow) was old enough he and his mother flew one of his father’s kites that were still in the house.

                                                                                               When Moon Shadow was older he was able to fly the kite by himself and admire it from every angle. There are two reasons why the two of them couldn’t visit father. One was because in the “Land of the Golden Mountain” wives weren’t allowed to visit. The other reason was because in the “Middle Kingdom” clans discouraged wives from leaving because it would mean no more money that the husbands sent from the “Land of the Golden Mountain” that couldn’t reused in the “Middle Kingdom”.

                                                                        The next day a man named “Hand Clap” visited Moon Shadow and his mother. They talked about the “Land of the Golden Mountain” and how Moon Shadow’s father was there. Hand Clap told the two of them that he was going back because his two daughters were so ugly they needed big dowries. However Moon Shadow and his mother knew that wasn’t why he was going. Anyway Moon Shadow’s mother asked Hand Clap to take a gift to father when he got their. Hand Clap said he actually came for a much bigger gift.

                                                                                            “Moon Shadow”. Moon Shadow’s mother was protesting that he was too young to go and that the Americans may beat him. Then Hand Clap said that Moon Shadow’s father wants him to come with him to visit him. He also said that in the “Land of the Golden Mountain”  Hand Clap had a whole group of friend that would protect Moon Shadow, and with that Moon Shadow went with Hand Clap to visit his father.

Week

For today’s post I’m just going to talk about some things I’ve done from the past week. For starters this weekend and last weekend I’ve been playing this game called “Overwatch” and I know most kids know what it is. The only people who don’t are the ones that have no connection to the internet. In “Overwatch”, “Blizzard” just added at new character into the PC version of the game. She is called, “Orisa” and she’s a robot. Basically a very intelligent girl named “Efi” was able to improve her add new modifications for her.

       Since “Orisa” came out a youtuber named, “NerdOut” made a music video on her. Its a very good song and I love how they make videos on almost every single video game that has came out since 2016. However “Orisa” isn’t their only “Overwatch” related music video. They also have some that talk about two of the most popular characters, “Gengi” and “Hanzo”. Along with all the “attack” heroes rapping against each other. Its pretty epic so I encourage you to subscribe to their channel and look at some of their content.

                          Now something that happened at school. Well at school during Math class my teacher was giving out grades for all the students because she wanted us to know how much we need to work to improve our grade. My final grade is a 90 (Ninety) and thats pretty good. Sure its not an A, but i’ll try my hardest to reach that 93 (A). I fell bad for my friend though because the two of us always tell each other our grades. While I got a 90 he got a 74 which is a C and close to failing. 

                                                             Another fun thing that happened this week was Gym. During a regular school week we only get two Gym classes so because we had Gym on Friday I was so happy. Since we quit the basketball unit, which trust me I was horrible at, we just run and play games until the fitness tests. During class our teacher said that we were going to play Superhero tag which really sucked at first because I wanted to play, “Sharks and Minnows”. However when we started playing the game it was really fun. 

                    When the first round started I wasn’t tagged once and their were two heroes. Everyone else were villains. The second round I got tagged once, but not two times (If you get tagged two times you get sentenced to the “Jail”). Then out of nowhere my teacher started chasing people everywhere and it me and my friend no time to realize he was also a superhero. While I was getting up from tying my shoes he told me to look at them again and tagged me. I cant believe I actually looked when I already tied them. Anyway thats what I did this week. Hope you enjoyed.

FunPlex

For today I’m going to write about something that happened to me since my last post. For one I went to this place called FunPlex. The reason I went their was because I was invited by a girl to go to her party. At first I decided not to go to her party because none of my friends were going. However later on my friend asked me if I’m going to the girl’s party. Thats when I decided to go to. In the morning I got ready and ate my breakfast. At 12:00 A.M I was picked up by the girl’s mom and sister. 

There they took me and my sister to her house. My sister wasn’t even supposed to come, but she kept on crying so I decided to take her. When I got to the house a bunch of girls came outside of the door. They were recording me on there phones and saying, “Hi, Rinchen!”. It was like a paparazzi. So I used my hand to block my face and then headed inside. Her house was pretty small, not trying to be mean. It had a regular sized TV, but then there was a bathroom the size of a mini van. 

When the last girl came the girl’s mom took us all in her car to FunPlex. I no its silly for me to forget this, but the girl’s name is Chloe. Inside of the car my sister was talking to all of them and I decided to sleep with my jacket covering my face so they couldn’t take a picture of me. Though my plan wasn’t very foolproof because when I woke up the girls already took a photo of me and were uploading it to Snapchat.

At Funplex I saw water slides and thought this was going to be epic. Then one of the girls told me that the water slides were only open during Summer because they couldn’t have the water slides open when it was cloudy and about to rain. Inside of Funplex it din’t look so great. Then when I turned around I saw everything! It was so amazing. There were rides and ball pits. It was epic. The cool thing was that everything was inside a building. The first thing we did though was go into a room in Funplex where they celebrate birthday’s.

When we got inside that room the woman there told us to wait for a couple of minutes. Then she took us all to one of the small rides where it was actually pretty scary. Chloe almost lost her phone. I laughed and screamed as well. Then we played laser tag. Thats when two of the boys came and I wasn’t the only male. There parents came as well. The laser tag wasn’t as exciting as I had hoped for because I didn’t know how to reload and stuff like that. Thats why I always went to base and had to recharge every time.

Mr. Popper's Penguins

This is going to be a first look of a book called “Mr. Popper’s Penguins”, by Richard and Florence Atwater. Although this book is a bit too easy for a kid my age. My dad bought it from NYC (New York City) and it seems pretty fun anyway. If I could give this book a rating it would be 9/10 because the book has around 140 pages which is decent for a kids book and has pictures. Every chapter has its own picture and a title. The only reason I wouldn’t give this book a 10/10 star rating is because the pictures aren’t colored, even though the cover of the book is. However this is just my opinion. Now lets start from the top.

       

The start of the book when you turn the page are the Contents, but after that its chapter one. Chapter one starts of talking about a town called “Stillwater” and a man named Mr. Popper is walking towards his house. In the next page the picture is very similar to the man in the cover of the book so he must be the main character. On the cover of the book it shows a bunch of penguins and Mr. Popper. It shows him carrying a ladder and pain buckets in his hands. His clothes look dirty too, but he still has a smile in his face as the kids around him look. Then it says that Mr. Popper loves dreaming about going to faraway places and wishes he could’ve gone somewhere first before marrying his wife “Mrs. Popper” and settling down with tow other children.

In the second chapter it says that when Mr. Popper gets home is children are put to bed and he sits on his couch reading a book called, “Antarctic Adventures”. While he reads the books Mrs. Popper comes in the room and  asks what book he’s reading. Then she asks why he always reads about the Antarctic and why he likes a place so ugly? Then Mr. Popper counters her back by saying the movie that came out last month showed the Antarctic and it was beautiful. Afterward Mr. Popper says he wishes he could have a pet penguin because he heard they were extremely intelligent. 

Suddenly he turns on the radio and listens to a famous explorer by the name of, “Admiral Drake” and gets informed that he will receive a very special surprise. In the third chapter Mr. Popper is awake and already in the next day. The all of a sudden the door answers and an expressman delivers a crate to Mr. Popper. He wonders what it is and finds out that its from Admiral Drake! This excites Mr. Popper so  he grabs his hammer and tries to break the crate with all his might. After a couple of swings at it Mr. Popper hears a weird sound coming from inside and feels like he remembers it. So he opens the crate and finds a ………… PENGUIN! 

He reacts to the penguin with shock and delight filling up on his face. This has to be the special surprise that Admiral Drake was talking about. With that being said Mr. Popper doesn’t realize that the penguin is already moving around through the house with curiosity. He read in a book that penguins are very curious so this wasn’t very shocking. The penguin practically inspected the whole house. He searched the bedrooms and the kitchen. Mr. Popper thought that it might have been best if the penguin had something cold around it because it used to be in Antarctica. Thats why he grabbed the penguin and put it inside the bathtub with cold water. 

Comment what you think will happen next. WARNING: I’m not continuing the story, thats why i called it a “First Look”.
