Diary, About Bill Gate, ( read)

Yesterday started and finished reading a book called, "Who is Bill Gates". It talks about a boy named Bill Gates who grew up to become a billionaire. But do you wanna know who he did. Well, let me explain how. Bill Gates was born October 28, 1955, (now 61) in Washington, Seattle. Bill's parents were very smart and educated, Bill's father was a successful lawyer and his mother was a school teacher. When Bill was 7 years old, he decided to read the entire "World Book"! Then, when he was 11 Bill entered a contest at his church to memorize the "Sermon on the Mount". Whoever perfectly recited this got to have a dinner at the famous Space Needle in Seattle! And of course, Bill won!

When Bill reached the 6th-grade school started to get boring. That's why his parents sent him to a private school called "Lakeside" when he was in 7th grade. Bill didn't know it, but this school would be the start of his computer career! One day Bill and his class were taken to the computer room at the school. Since the school couldn't afford to buy a huge computer that cost lots of money they bought the next best thing. A teletype machine,  it was connected to the mainframe computer downtown with the telephone wire. That was when the teachers started to push buttons on a long spool of paper and the computer gave it an answer!

That was the start of Bill's fascination with computers. He started read manuals on the computer and spend any free time he had in the computer room. He even learned the language for "talking" to computers which were called "BASIC". With a few other boys at the school, the group started to teach their teachers about the computers! Now Bill found is life's focus, COMPUTERS! The group of six started their own club called the "Lakeside Programmers". Soon each of the boys was making their own programs for the computer. However, time for the computer at the school wasn't free. That was when a new company called "C-Cubed" (for short) came out they hired the boys to fix any flaws in their computers and in return were given access to their own computer!

Later on, Bill graduated from Lakeside and started to work with a man name, "Paul Allen". One day, Paul rushed over to BIll show him a poster that he found. "Popular Electronics, First mini-computer!". The boys were overly excited. They saw how the "Altair" was really good and wasn't even an actual computer. It was just the parts for a computer, the hardware. There was no screen or mouse to go along with the hardware. That's why Bill called the company (MITS) that made this "kit" and said he and Paul would create software for the "computer". When they agreed and wanted to see the finished product in one month Bill and Paul worked day and night to finish it. 

From then on Paul and Bill were very successful with their work. Sooner or later Paul decided to leave Bill to do his own thing and Bill respected his decision. That was when Bill made his own company called, "Microsoft". At first it wasn't even a company but as time progressed so did Microsoft and in the end, it became very successful and still is. Bill created software for the computer called "Personal Computer" that IBM had created. The sales went off the roof and many companies started to make their own versions of the "MS-DOS"(software). From then on Bill created his own browser for Microsoft and married. He was also popular for being the "Richest Man on Earth". Many people loved him and eventually, he gave his company to a man named, "Warren Buffet".

My journal 09/29/2017

Today when the bus dropped me to school it was around 8:40 A.M. When I got to my class only like 10 kids were there. I was thinking that maybe we wouldn't have many kids today. However at 8:50 A.M literally 15 kids just all came one by one and I was shocked. For my first period my class had Technology. When we got to the computer lab our teacher called us by rows to get our chrome books  Then wrote on the board which website we were going to get on and our password for the computers. The website was called, "NitroType". It's basically a typing website that shows us our "WPM" in a racing type of format.

It was actually pretty fun, after Technology was over my class lined up to go to Dance. When I say ,"Dance" I mean DANCE! We headed to the cafeteria and put our book bags on the wall. After that all the kids got in their warmup position and waited for our dance teacher to give us the directions. My Dance teacher is called, Ms. Marti and she graduated with a degree in dance and English Language Arts. Thats why she also teaches us Grammar  The warmup really stretched my body to it's limit because once it was over I could a feel a bit of sweat on my back. Okay, I'm just kidding but it was pretty hard to do.

When Dance class was over all the kids (including me) grabbed their book bags and got in line to go back to the homeroom. When we reached our class some of us went to our lockers to get home lunch and others just got back in line. For recess I played party tag with three of my other friends. Their names are, Jacob, John, and Lawrenclie (name hard to spell). We played until it was time for us to go back to the cafeteria and eat food. While walking back inside the cafeteria I was sweating a little, not too much but still sweating so of course I didn't like it.

After Lunch my next class was Spanish. All we did was watch a few videos about Spanish speaking countries and there capitals. For ELA, my class took our chapter 11 and 12 quiz and I think I did pretty good at it. Then we watched a video on CNN 10 and it was pretty good. For dinner we got barbecued chicken with barbecued sauce on top. It was really good and I was drawing while eating. For my 3rd to last period of the day I had Science , my class had to finish an outline or else it would be homework. Fortunately I finished way before class ended and continued to draw my manga face.

That was pretty much all I did today at school. When I walked home from my afternoon bus stop it was around 4:10 P.M. When I got to my house I saw my sister in the playroom and my dad making food in the kitchen. First I changed from my school uniform and then walked into the kitchen to see what my dad was making. It was scrambled eggs, with rice, and turkey. I know it may not seem that good, but it actually was great! When I finished eating my food I walked into the playrooma nd grabbed a book called, "Who is, Bill Gates?". That was the book I read and finished today. Anyway see you later!

September 28th 2017 Diary

While waiting for my bus I checked my watch and realized it was already 8:30 A.M. I was surprised and wanted the bus to come already so when I saw it down the street after 10 minutes I was pretty happy. The bus made me late for my first period, but only for like 3 minutes. Once I got to my homeroom I saw a different class because mine was already downstairs for Science. So I quietly walked inside to get something from my locker and then walked downstairs to class. As soon as I got to the class I realized that I didn't get breakfast, but by then it was already late to go back.

After Science class was finished I walked in my classroom line back upstairs to the Gym. For Gym we did our usual warmups (which involved pushups and situps). After that, we played a game. This game was called "Flip It", basically there were two teams and one team had to flip the cones down while the other team had to flip them back up. I was with the team that had to flip them back up and I already knew my team lost because knocking stuff down (especially cones) was a lot easier to do than putting them back up, it just is. And I was correct because when we played the game the other team won, twice!

That game really made me sweaty and I didn't like that so I tried to not run while at recess, but it was pretty hard. For lunch, I was eating some spicy chips with my friends and my mouth got really hot. I chugged a whole pint of milk and my mouth was still really spicy. So I ran outside to the nearest water fountain and drank the water for at least 2 minutes. Eventually, I drank so much water my stomach was hurting and I knew I would have to use the bathroom soon since I drank so much of it. When I walked back into the cafeteria I licked my fingers and only realized they had the spice on them until after I felt it.

During Social Studies class I was reading my textbook when one of the kids in my group was made me laugh. My teacher clearly told us we had to write 3 paragraphs after finishing reading the textbook and then 3 seconds later he asked how many paragraphs we had to write. Then at the end of class, he went up to the teacher and asked a question. I think the teacher was pretty annoyed because he called the kid's parents about how stupid the kid was acting. When it was "Dinner Time" a girl in my class gave everyone two chocolate chip cookies. That was honestly all that is worth mentioning at my school day today.

Today I finished reading a book called, "Confederate Generals of the Civil War". It turned out to be a pretty good book. It talked all about the generals on the Confederate side, the people who wanted slavery to continue. Something I found pretty interesting was that 2/9 of the generals actually didn't like slavery, but since their state joined the Confederate they felt like it was their duty to help the place they were born. That is all that really happened today. Anyway see you guys later, tomorrow its Friday and then the weekend!  

Diary 09/27/2017

When I got to school today it was 8:30 A.M. This was because while I was waiting for my bus at the stop there was a traffic jam. That is the reason why I think the bus came late today. There were a bunch of cars in a pile and sometimes it looked like two cars were about to crash. Another reason why the bus was late was that on one of the stops the kids there didn't want to get on the bus so my bus driver left them saying it was their fault and I agree. However when she told this to one of the people at the school they told her to go back again and see if they would listen. 

Unfortunately, they did and I could hear them arguing all the way from my seat in the back. Anyway, when I got to my class I saw practically everyone wearing something related to a superhero. This was because my school was having a superhero dress down. It really sucked because I didn't have any clothes with a superhero logo or anything like that. I grabbed some breakfast from the back of the class and walked to my seat. Then I quietly ate until it was 8:55 A.M. That was when I got in line to go to my first class which was Social Studies. My teacher apparently wanted to talk about diversity and languages.

He asked everyone who knew another language to raise their hands up so I did. Even though I don't actually know how to fluently speak in my native language I still know a few words and it is my culture. Besides that, when he called on me and I said the name of the language he seemed pretty surprised and interested. After Social Studies class I packed up and held the door for my class. Then used the bathroom and walked to my homeroom. There, everyone was sitting in their seats listening to my teacher talking about our cheer. Basically, a cheer for our school is when we represent our class and teacher's college with a short rap or dance or song.

Our cheer was pretty cringy. We start out walking out room and getting in two lines. Then our teacher starts talking smack to the other classes while we finish. Suddenly he's supposed to howl and we all walk into the room in the two lines. Then he finish's his speech and we go back to our spots on the floor. I felt pretty awkward standing in the middle of the room with the rest of the class. When the period ended our teacher let us run outside and play until it was time for Lunch. For lunch, I had a cold cheeseburger with Dragon Juice (fruit punch) and an apple. That was about it for Lunch. After Lunch was done I walked with my class back to the homeroom.

When we got back to the homeroom it was time was Health! For health, we would have to present some questions that we asked our partner. My partner was a Philippines girl named, "Elisha". When we presented she did some type of move or dance that was in Japan and Korea. After this our last class was ELA. We watched some CNN 10 and then some TED. It was pretty fun and when it finished I went to my afternoon bus and got driven home. At my bus stop I said hi to my mom since she was still waiting for my sister and then walked home.

Diary 09/26/2017

Today at school I walked to my class and saw at least half the kids already at the class. This was because now my morning bus and afternoon bus has a new stop so it takes us another 5 minutes to get to school. Apparently my stop was the 3rd to last, but now it's the 4th. I only had a few minutes to eat breakfast and pack up so I hurried and then got in line for my first period. For my first period I had Studies Social Studies and my teacher was basically helping us grade our tests. I found out that I had made two mistakes on the back of my test so it should be an 75%, but because I got most of the extra credit in the front right it equaled 100%.

After Social Studies my next class was Gym. For gym my teacher said we would be playing a new game which is basically handball and soccer combined. When the ball is in the air you can grab it and then it turns into handball. However if the ball touches the ground it immediately becomes the soccer and the only way to turn it back into handball is by either kicking it in the air (experienced) or to grab it while it is in the air. The game was actually pretty fun. There were just two things I hated about it. When it turned into soccer everyone just constantly kicked the ball for no reason.

The other reason I hated the game was because when Gym finished I was sweating like crazy. There were only a few other kids besides me who were sweating like a waterfall. For Lunch the food was hamburgers, unfortunately the vegetarians got to eat cheese pizza and it was so good. Thats why I asked my Pakistan friend (since their religion means they should be vegetarian) if he could get me one of those and he did! The pizza was so good! One of my friends asked me for a piece so I grabbed a clean fork and cut off a piece. For recess I stayed under the playground talking to a few friends because I didn't want to sweat.

For technology my teacher gave my class chrome books and told us to go on this program called "Nitro Typing". If you get higher than 30 WPM (Words Per Minute) you can do whatever you want on the Chromebook  My first time that I did it I got 43 words per minute. Then I decided to try again and got 54. When I told my teacher this he said that was above average and I was really proud of myself. All the practice at home wasn't worth nothing after all. When done I played a game called, "Run 3" that I mentioned in a previous post and it was really fun. 

When I finished school my bus took me to my afternoon stop. It took about 10 minutes to get to my bus stop since the school added another one before me. I checked to see if my dad was still at my sister's bus stop, but apparently he already picker her up. On the way home I took off my sweater and hung it around my waist. At home my dad was making pizza with my sister and I told him about my 100% for the Social Studies quiz. He hugged me and said those moments when I get 100 is when he really gets happy. I guess that means I need to get more 100s? Anyway see you guys later!

Diary 09/25th 2017

Today when I woke up it was around 6:10 A.M. My dad over exaggerated a lot when he said it was 6:30 A.M. I walked downstairs with my sister and then went to the playroom. Thats where I grabbed the clothes that I would need to wear for my school day. Since I didn't have any Gym or Dance today I had to wear my usual school uniform which was very uncomfortable. I had to adjust it at least 3 times before it felt half decent. For breakfast I had some eggs and bread. I don't like always having egg, expecially with the bread I ahd with the egg but I didn't argue and ate it.

When I got to my school I saw that already half the kids in my class were at school. For breakfast they ahve us cereal and milk with crackers, orange juice, and an apple. That breakfast was way better than what I had at home. Unfortunately I wasn't able to finish it because my bus was late, because of that I only had 3 minutes to apck up and eat breakfast. Yeah I'd rather pack up and get ready for the rest of the day. My first period of the day which was Social Studies. For Social Studies my teacher gave my class and I a pop quiz. It was really a pop quiz since he told us we "might" have one.

After Social Studies my next class was Science even though I thought it was Technology. For Science my actual teacher wasn't there so we ahd a subtitute that did a pretty good job of giving us drections. For Lunch I had pasta, which is not what you think. You really thought that they would give us "amazing" pizza? Yeah, no they gave us a type of pasta that was like the size of a nintendo and some parts of it didn't even had sauce. That is why I had to mix it and they even microwaved it. For recess I was just talking to a few friends and playing some tag. That was all I did.

After Lunch I had Spanish and our teacher showed us a few spanish songs. Then we talked about a few events that were happening around the world (mainly spanish speaking countries). After Spanish my class ahd ELA. However we weren't able to use the ELA room since there was another class doing that. That is why my teacher wanted us to us the Technology room which also meant we weren't gonna have Technology class since teh schedule was mixed up. While in the Technology room I just read my book or talked to this girl who was sitting next to me about her favrote band since I was bored.

For the rest of my day we just did some Math and grammer. Once that was over I packed up adn left to go to my afternooon bus. While on the bus I heard a bunch of kids complaining about them being on the bus since they were the new kids. They said they were allowed to use their phones and drink and eat on the other bus, but not this one. I really doubt our bus driver and bus attendent would let them do that so either they stay on this bus or they can't go on the bus at all. After getting dropped off I walked to my house and then started this.

Dear diary

Yesterday, when I finishing my post my dad let me use my PS4. For the most part I played “Overwatch”, but for about 1 hour my time was on Naruto. In all honesty “Naruto Shippuden Storm Four” is a really fun game and you should definitely get it. After playing for quite a while my dad told me it was time to get off. I told my friends goodbye and then walked upstairs to where he was. Then I asked wether or not I could go to the park since he wanted me to go outside. Fortunately he said yes and I happily walked down the stairs to get ready for the park.

While putting on my shoes I was thinking about what I should take with me to the park. Thats why once I finished putting on my shoes I grabbed a yogurt and some water. Then I brushed my hair and left the house closing the back door very carefully so I wouldn’t lock it, but also so it wouldn’t open again until I came back. At the park I saw a bunch of my friends standing in a circle looking at something. Thats when I saw what they were looking at, a wasp! Or more so a “Yellow Jacket”. The wasp was on the ground practically dying so I tried to help it. 

However overtime I tried to pick it up on a stick my friend pushed me and did the exact same thing I was trying to do. Then he purposely dropped it saying that it was looking at him. Like one of the wasp’s wings were broken and I could barely see the stinger! Then when I tried to pick it up again he pushed me and almost stepped on it. Then grabbed it with the stick and purposely dropped it again explaining that it “looked” (key word) like it was going to sting him. And guess what? He grabbed the wasp and dropped it a third time. Then an 8 year old kid spilled water on it on purpose!

I felt really bad for the wasp because it did nothing wrong and is now getting tortured with. I couldn’t even move because one of its legs and wings were broken, each! Thats when I got full on triggered (really pissed off or mad)! My so called “friend” was acting like a real douche bag (meaning obnoxious or mean)  so eventually I pushed him and grabbed the wasp with the stick as fast as I could. Then I ran towards the grass and gently put him on one of the leaves. I almost had to fight him, but luckily one of my friends told him to relax.

The rest of my time at the park was either playing football or dodgeball. I decided to leave early because it was starting it get dark and besides that there were a ton of mosquitos. When I got home, my dad was on his phone in his room just relaxing on his bed. I told him I went to the park and he laughed because he already knew that. Then he let me use the computer and I watched a few lifestreams of people playing “Naruto Shippuden Storm Four”. That was all I did yesterday, see you later.

September 22nd 2017

Journal.

At school, the first thing that I did was of course walk to my class. Then I got my breakfast which was some white milk with crackers and Cheerios. Honestly the breakfast at school is not great, but its good enough to eat to satisfy in the morning. After eating the breakfast my teacher told us it was time for first class so I pack up my bag and got in line with the rest of my classmates. Then we walked to the Technology lab where our teacher let us do whatever we wanted with the computers.

I basically watched a video called “Light em’ up”. It was such a great video because the song was great and all the people dancing (all there was dancing) where either weirdly dressed or edited to look really cool. Either way, it was great, after watching the song I played this game called “Run 3” which may not seem any fun to you guys but for me and my other friends it was great. It's basically a game where the character you're playing has to run through many obstacles and try to reach the next level. When playing it with other people it is extremely fun.

Another period that I had which was fun was dance. For dance my teacher wanted us to go to the cafeteria since the tables weren’t set up yet and it sure was fun. For dance, we actually had a warmup and that was just too much. For starters, the warmup was like 10 minutes so 1/4 our whole period. Secondly, half the kids who were even participating in the warmup ( some kids couldn’t dance because they weren’t wearing their correct uniform for dance which was the gym uniform. The warmup was basically a whole bunch of dance moves altogether. I can’t really explain it because I don’t even know the names of the movies we did.

After Dance my class had Lunch and us for lunch it was disgusting pizza. Thankfully one of the friends gave a full sandwich that her mom made for her and another one gave me some pocky’s (a tasty stick shaped cookie with chocolate on top. For recess, I talked to a few boys and girls under the playground and got into a game of tag with a few others. I told one of the girls under the playground that I found the book she gave me, which made her happy. Besides that, she was really nice because when I told her I couldn’t find it on Friday she said it was okay and then when I asked her how much she cost she said I didn’t have to pay! That is one nice person!

When school was over I got off my afternoon bus and walked to my sister’s bus stop. Soon enough I saw my dad standing near the pole that showed whether or not you could cross to him another side of the street. He gave me his keys and told me that I could go back tot he house and wait for him and my sister when he picks her up. However, I already had my own keys and didn’t want to leave. That is when I remembered that it is better not to argue and just to do it if it doesn’t hurt you. That's why I walked home and changed my clothes. That's22/2017 all for today.

09/23/2017 Journal

Today when I woke up it was around 7:08. I don’t know the exact time. I walked over to my dad’s room and saw my sister watching a video with him. That is when I heard a noise downstairs, it was my Aunt! I know you might be confused as to why I seem excited about my aunt being downstairs so let me explain. She hasn’t come home for a whole week so my sister, dad, and I were worried. Now that she is downstairs I don’t have to feel that way anymore. I ran downstairs but quietly enough so my dad wouldn’t get mad at me. Then I walked over to the kitchen where I saw her praying.

I knew it was rude to disturb someone while they were praying so I just waited until she was done. After about a minute she finally finished and asked me what I wanted. My dad told me yesterday that the new iPhone 8 came out so I wanted to talk to her about that and see if she already knew. When I told her this and how the iPhone 8 costed a 1000 dollars she told me I was wrong. That just answered my question. Now I know that she found out about the iPhone 8 a while ago. She told me that she saw an advertisement on the iPhone 8 and it said that it was on sale for about $700.

After we talked for a bit in the kitchen she wanted to go downstairs in the basement and clean up her bed. I told her I would come as soon as I got my phone for upstairs. I I went to my bedroom and grabbed my phone. While walking back down the stairs my sister followed me and ask if my aunt was here. I told her that she was and my sister ran down to the basement. However when I got to basement she was hiding behind the door, probably because she wanted to surprise my aunt. But when I looked at my aunt’s face I could already tell she knew my sister was hiding.                                                           

But by being a good brother I decided to not tell my sister that my aunt knew she where she was. Instead I just charged my phone and pretended like nothing happened. It was pretty funny when my sister tried to scare my aunt because my aunt kind of jerked back like she was terrified. Then all three of us were together we watched some old videos of me when I was younger and some of my sister’s. You know what she told me? “How come you were so cute when you were younger and now your just a dirty old boy?”, my aunt said. That really hurt my feelings…..just kidding, I knew she was joking so it was okay.

Then after about another 30 minutes my dad called my sister and I go back upstairs. I told my aunt I would be right back even though I wouldn’t. Then I brushed my teeth in the bathroom with my sister. However while walking to the playroom my dad told me to go back to the bathroom because I apparently didn’t brush my teeth properly. I guess if you looked at my teeth it would be yellow so I didn’t argue and just walked back into the bathroom to brush my teeth. For breakfast we had eggs with bread and milk. The usual breakfast is always good with me and then I started reading, the end.

Diary September 21st 2017

At around 8:30 A.M my bus dropped me to school where I walked to my class. When I got to my classroom I saw a few other kids sitting outside their classes because their teacher wasn't there yet. I had to wait for about 3 minutes, but eventually my teacher (Mr. Correa) came and I dropped my book bag in my seat. After that I walked over to get breakfast near the pencil sharpener. At 8:55 A.M it was time for first period and I walked near the lockers to get in the line. Once everyone was in the line my teacher told us to walk downstairs to the Science room and wait for him.

Once the line reached downstairs I advanced (walked forward) into the Science room and sat in my seat. When everyone in my class sat in their seat our teacher told us to grasp (capture or grab) all the textbooks at your table and bring them to him. I volunteered for my table and gave the textbooks to my teacher. Then I walked back to my seat and waited for further instructions. After that he called each student one by one to grab their textbook and turn to page 12 in the textbook. That is when we started to read the lesson until the class ended.

After Science my class had Gym. For Gym we started with a warmup that our teacher gave us. It was basically leg and arm warmups. After that we had to do 10 pushups and 10 sit-ups as well. I was trying to persevere (try and push yourself) and get past all those warmups. Fortunately in the end I kept at it and got past the challenge. Thats when I looked at my teacher and saw how vigorous (healthy or full of energy) she was and actually got mad. Okay just kidding, I didn't actually get mad because she did it with us. It was just that she was a lot more used to it then us kids.

The rest of my day wasn't all that interesting. I can say that my Math class was pretty productive (good progress or good use of time) because I was writing a bunch of notes and learning new things too. However the rest of my classes either weren't fun or there is just nothing to say about them. That is why I am just going to skip to my dismissal. For dismissal I wrote my homework down and then packed up to leave. When I got outside it was time to wait for a couple of minutes and I didn't know what to do. Thats when Is aw a group of my friends and called it the Asian Squad since they were all Asians. It was pretty amusing if I saw so myself.

Thats when my bus came and I walked towards it. Then I picked the closest seat that was available in the front row and waited until it was my stop. While waiting for my stop I Iooked out the windows to pass some time. Once it was my stop I got off and checked my sister's bus stop to see if my dad was there. However she wasn't so that must've meant that he already picked up my sister or was already late.  I decided to pick the better option and walk home. When I got closer to the house I saw him walking on the other side of the street and tried to hide. Unfortunately he already saw me so I didn't try. That was all.

Diary 20th September 2017

By the time I got up from my bed it was already 6:05 A.M. I woke my sister up and then we both walked downstairs. Once we reached the playroom the two of us brushed our teeth, ate our breakfast, and changed into our school uniforms. At 7:10 A.M we walked to her bus stop where I waited for about 10 minutes. While waiting I watched my sister playing with her friends and congratulated her when she won the game they were playing. After the bus came and picked up my sister I walked back to the house and kept on drawing until it was 8:00 A.M. That is when I ran to my bus stop. 

The reason I ran was because yesterday the bus came only 5 minutes after I reached the stop. That meant it was around 8:10 A.M. Even though the bus schedule said it was supposed to arrive at 8:13 A.M. However today it got to the stop at around 8:25 A.M. However it still was earlier than usual and I got to the school right before the kids outside went in to their classes. At my class the lights were still off so when my teacher came he turned them on. Then I walked inside the class to get breakfast and walked to my seat. At 8:55 A.M it was time for first period to start.

The first class I had was Social Studies. For Social Studies the teacher was talking to us about a family emergency plan adn what we should to be safe in case a natural disaster hits us. Even though I doubted a disaster would be hitting New Jersey for some time I guess it still would be good to have a plan or kit full of things we would need in case it actually does happen. After Social Studies class my class walked back to our homeroom where our teacher told us how we would do our class cheer (a cheer we make for every class/ chant). It was pretty what our teacher had planned for us.

Basically our teacher would tell us to go outside the big room and get in too single file lines. Then our teacher who is still in the big room would howl. Thats right I said it, Howl! Its a pretty funny already. He said the kids and teachers would think this guy was crazy and thats when we walked back into the room. There would be one kids who controls the music and when we entered the room that person would play the music and stop once we finished. Then we would all say for each class, "Be Humble, sit down!". All the kdis laughed when our teacher said we would be making enemies of every class.

The rest of the day wasn't really anything special. When I got off my afternoon bus I checked my sister's bus stop to see if my dad was there. However he wasn't so I walked home adn foudn him making some food while my sister was changing her clothes. When she finished changing in the bathroom it was my turn to switch into my home clothes and my dad finished whatever he was making. Some tortillas with eggs as well. It would be really good. Anyway that was my post, bye!

09/19th 2017 Diary

Yesterday, after I finished my post for the day. I went on youtubenand watched a few videos from my favorite Youtubers. Once it was 7:00 P.M I typed in "How to draw a manga character/male". The reason I did this was because I really wanted to make my very own manga character. I think it would be pretty cool and I could put on the front of my binder or locker. Also it looks really cool whenever I make it. That is why yesterday I typed this in and then looked at the first video that popped up, it was from a Youtuber called, "Sophie Chan". She draws really cool Manga characters and I her's a lot.

Today when I finished changing my clothes and brushing my teeth I turned on my dad's computer and started watching another one of her videos. After that I started to draw again, but didn't do all that well. That is why I also continued drawing while I was at school. Now besides drawing I did other things a school too. For one when it was Gym time my class played "Matball". Basically a safer version of kickball, however I didn't really enjoy it because the rules were a bit too complicated for me. In the end it was just a way to burn off calories.

After Gym my next period was recess and lunch. When I was at recess the first thing I did was play tag with my friend "Wade". Then I started talking to a few other people while I was doing the monkey bars. During Lunch the food they gave us was a hot dog and tator tots. I really enjoyed it since this was the only actual good food they had. The hamburgers don't really count because that is how almost every school makes them. Once Lunch was over I sad goodbye to a few friends from other classes and then left to go back to homeroom. While walking to homeroom I went to the bathroom to check my hair.

During Science our teacher gave us our first quiz of the year. It was 9 questions long with eaching question being 11 to 12 points long. Once he gave the class the quiz the timer started for 10 minutes. Once that 10 minutes was up almost everyone in the class finishing their test. The reason I say "almost" is because when he told us the timer was over I heard a few kids getting mad or saying, "Oh, Come on!". It was actually pretty funny, then we started to grade our tests. Everyone had to pass it to the person right of them. Since I was at the end of my table the first person would get my test.

In the end I got a 100 and felt pretty happy. Unfortuanately the person who's test I was grading got a 56%. I felt pretty bad for him, especially when the teacher told us that whatever grade you got was going to be the grade you start out with for the year. Since I got a 100% my science grade would be 11. However since he got a 56% his grade is now a 56 and that brings his grade down a lot! When school was over my bbus dropped me to my bus stop where I rian. It was soaking wet outside and I forgot my key so I went to my sister's bus stop hoping I didn't miss it. Thats when I saw my dad and knew my sister was with him. The End.

09/18th 2017 Diary

Today when I walked out my house it was 8:01 A.M and I was running to my bus stop. I don't really know why I was running, but I guess I did it because of exercise. When I got to the bus stop I saw a few kids. After about 10 minutes (didn't bring my watch so I'm just guessing) the rest of the parents came with their kids. At around 8:30 A.M I could see the bus all the way down the street and put on my sweater (it was raining). While putting it on I smelled it and realized just how bad it was. That is why I just held the sweater instead of wearing it because if I put it inside my backpack it would also smell.

At my school, I walked into the class and grabbed a breakfast. Then ate it until it was 8:55 A.M. That is when my teacher told the class to line up and we all walked down the stairs to the bottom floor where my first class was (Social Studies). Social Studies was one of my favorite classes because we had a pretty funny teacher. Sometimes he yells a little too much to make a statement or overexaggerates about some of the things in the class. Other than that he's a great teacher to have. His name is Mr. Gilyard and I think he is Jamaican. Sometimes he makes little references about supposedly being in the military, but never actually talks about it.

My next class was Science even though I thought it was Technology. I was a bit confused when I found out but realized that the schedule I was using wasn't correct and my teacher would give me a new one later. For Science, all we did was define some words and study for a quiz we would be having next class. Other than that I was kind of drawing a flower, but that was it. After Science, we had recess because for 7th graders our lunch was after recess. The cool thing was that we had lunch at 10:45 A.M, so early am I right? During recess, I just played tag and talked to some of my friends under the playground.

After Lunch and recess, I walked back to my homeroom. The whole class got ready for Spanish and our teacher for the class checked our homework. Once she was done the whole class watched a song on youtube called "Se Chevere". It basically has a bunch of "Cognados" (vocabulary) that we can use to copy in our notes. I really liked the song because it talked about how to be a cool teacher and was pretty funny. Okay not about the cool teacher part but mostly because it was funny. I really enjoyed it and now its kind of stuck inside my head.

After school, my bus dropped me off at my usual bus stop and I walked over to my dad. He was talking to another parent and told me to go to the house to change. Once I finished changing I saw my dad and sister outside the window walking towards the house so I opened the door for them. Then I washed my hands because I knew we would be eating food. The "food" that we were eating was called "Momo" and it was pretty good. I helped set up the table and put the plates. While everyone one of us were eating I grabbed three napkins and passed it to each of us. That was my day and see you later.

September 17th 2017 diary

For today's post I am going to be making up my own story. It is called, "Orphan". 

Orphan

Hi, my name is Dana and I am an orphan here at "Goldstate Orphanage". I am 10 years old and have been here for about 6 years. Now I have gotten used to it and don't disobey my headmaster. Her name is Maggie and she is mean and stubborn. Out of all the kids in the orphanage I am the one she hates the most. Fortunately if she kicks me out she will not get any money for taking care of the rest of the kids. Unfortunately that doesn't mean she has no other ways to make me feel bad. One is that while the other kids eat lunch I have to clip her toenails and that is something you don't want to do.

Anywat let me tell you my story and how I became an orphan in the first place. It was all during 1998 when I was 4 years old. My dad had ideed from a fire and my mother didn't know what to do. Thats why one night she wrapped me in a blanket while I was sleeping and took me to this exact orphanage. Then she gently layed me down and pulled a note that she had written on before. After laying me down in front of the door I she put the note inside of the blanket and ran away. I had started to cry and thats when Maggie opened the door. She grabbed me and put me in one of the beds. 

Thats how my life started in this place. I can still clearly remember my mom's face and wonder if I would ever see her again. However after 2 year of staying in the orphanage Maggie got a phone call from the government stating that my mother died. When Maggie told me this I was crying knowing that now both my parents had died. After another 4 years here I am now. Not crying anymore. Right now I am eating lunch which is some oatmeal with water and spinach. I know its a weird and disgusting lunch because for one, oatmeal is usually for breakfast and two , spinach is disgusting by itself.

I mena this orpahange is a mess, really! The food is disgusting by itself and the rooms are even worse. Once I saw a whole colony of ants crawling from the bathroom, downstairs, and into teh kitchen where the food was. Lets not even call if food, I mean if you think a couple of buckets of expired oatmeal and terrible spinach is food then go right ahead and eat it but I don't! This orphanage is practically falling apart! One time an inspector came to check the place and Maggic got this news 2 days earlier. As soon as she got it all teh kids were ordered to clean the place up before the inspector came. That was the one time this orphanage was actually clean.

One day a few adults came to adopt some children. I didn't know that they were coming because Maggie didn't tell me. However everyone else got the memo and were dressed up and ready to go some possible future parents. I feel like Maggie didn't tell me on purpose because she wanted to continue torturing me. I felt like this place would be where I live for the rest of my life until one of the parents (man) looked at me. At that moment I ran up to the and said hi. From then on he adopted me and I lived a great life with his wife and daughter. The End.

September 16th 2017 Diary

Today when I woke up it was around 7:00 A.M. However during the night it was so hot that I kept on waking up. That is why I was a bit sleepy when I got up from my bed. I heard laughing in my dad's room so I walked over and saw that he was tickling my sister (as usual). He tried to tickle me too, but I endured and didn't laugh (I just wasn't in the mood to laugh). After 10 minutes he told my sister and I that we would have to go ahead and take a shower. I really wasn't in the mood to take a shower, but knew that after taking the shower I would feel a lot better and cleaner. 

Since my dad knew that I would not like to go first my sister reluctantly walked over to the bathroom and took a shower. For the next 5 minutes, I was just laying down on the bed and looking at one of my dad's phones that he got from Asia. The reason I said "one" was because he has an iPhone 6 and an iPad as well. I wish I had that many devices. For the most part, he only uses his phone from Asia whenever he wants to go ahead and talk to one of his family members on this app called, "WeChat". I don't know whether or not this app used to be one of the most popular apps or its just for Asians, but it is pretty neat.

Once my sister finished taking her shower my dad called me and told me that it is my turn. After about 5 to 7 minutes I finishing taking my shower and brushed my hair. I was asking my dad for a towel but didn't know that he was already downstairs with my sister. That is why a grabbed a towel and wrapped it around me while holding my dirty clothes. Then I walked downstairs and put the dirty clothes in the laundry. After about a good 2 minutes I grabbed some new ones and put them on in the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror again and brushed my hair with the closest comb I could find.

For breakfast, I was eating some Tibetan bread with eggs as well. I didn't like the fact that it was really buttery because it made my fingers feel weird whenever I tried to grab my fork. That is why I took my napkin and tried to clean my fork. Sure it helped a little bit but when I touched the bread it was like I never even used the napkin. That was why the breakfast was pretty frustrating to eat. The only reason I finished my plate was that of the milk I had on the side and the fact that I didn't want to waste food. If there was no food would have definitely never finished it.

After breakfast was finished I decided to start my homework so I took the book that I read yesterday and kept on at it. Once it was 30 minutes my dad notified me and I stopped reading. After that, I turned on my computer and typed in the password. I knew that the computer would take a minute or so to load so that is why I decided to go ahead and brush my teeth. Once I finished brushing my teeth I walked back to my computer and turned on my wifi. With that being said I typed in "Blogger.com" and started my typing. That is all for today guys and see you later.

September 15th 2017 Diary

Today when I woke up it was 6:00 A.M. I walked downstairs to the kitchen where I checked to see wether or not a note was on the table. There wasn't, thats when I decided to go back upstairs and tell my sister to wake up. Then the both of us went back down and started to change our clothes. At 7:10 A.M I took my sister to her bus stop and we waited for about 15 minutes. Thats when the bus finally came and I ran back to the house for excercise. For the rest of the time before it was 8:00 A.M I just ate cereal and sat on the living room couch since my dad took every electronic device in the house.

When it was 8:00 A.M I walked to my bus stop, but I turned right even though I was supposed to go left. This is because I needed to buy a snack before I went to school, especially since we would be having pizza (school pizza is really bad). Thats why I got a drink and some cookies. Then I ran to the stop and waited for the bus to come. Once it came I got on and then sat in the first seat I saw open. It was about 10 minutes before the bus got to the school. While sitting in my seat I was thinking about everything that I would be doing  today. I knew the first period was Technology so I was excited.

Before walking into the school I knew that there were 4 teachers near the doorway who always check to see if you tucked in your shirt. Usually I just pulled my sweater down so they wouldn't see, but lately they've caught on and now are asking for people to take off their sweaters. Thats why I pulled up my sweater and tucked in my shirt which was kind of hard since today was the first day I was wearing a belt. After about 2 minutes of trying to tuck in my shirt I got it in and walked into the school. At my classroom everyone was getting ready for Technoogy.

During Technology I waited for the teacher to give me my chromebook and went clicked on the guest icon. Then I went onto Google and typed in "Kahoot". Kahoot was a website that most teachers used where you pick a topic like logos of different stores or cartoon characters and then the people who are playing go on kahoot and type the code thats on the board. When typing that they will be able to pick a nickname and from there thats all you have to do. Once everyone is ready the host or teacher will click start and then there will be a series of questions. Whoever answers them the fastest and correct wins!

I was like the 20th person in my class and there are 30 people in the game so I did pretty bad. Good thing this is only a game and isn't worth anything for your grade. If it was anything academia I am pretty positive I will do good. The rest of my day wasn't so bad either. For dinner I had spaghetti with meatballs and it was pretty good. The public school food is so much better than my school's food and I just don't get why. Aren't charter schools supposed to be better. On second thought it really depends on the school's background or teachers sicne both schools are free. Its just that for charter schools there are limited spaces. The End.

09/13/2017 Diary

At 5.54 A.M I woke up from my sleep and turned off my alarm so it wouldn't make any noise when it reached 6:00 A.M. Then I walked over to my sister's room and made her get up. I felt like sleeping a bit, but walked downstairs anyway. The reason I felt like sleeping was because my sleep wasn't all the best. At 8:30 P.M I was telling my sister to turn off her light, but whenever she turned it off 10 seconds later it magically turned itself on (sarcasm)! I was really mad at her and eventually had to unplug her lamp just to stop the chaos. In addition to things making me mad it was so hot in my room so I didn't use any covers.

The thing that really triggered me was that she "supposedly" had to go use the bathroom and while walking she tried to plug the cord back into the outlet. Thats why I had to go ahead and unplug it again. Then after 2 minutes she flushed the toilet, but didn't turn off her light. And guess what? She literally tried to plug it back in. So then I had to unplug the cord back again. When she turned the bathroom light off I got so mad because my sister tried to turn it on again! Thats when I was done, I yelled at her to go back to her bed, but not high enough so that my dad would come into the room.

I think thats enough of home. I'd rather talk about what I did at school today. When I got to class I ran to my seat, but didn't get a chance to eat my breakfast in the homeroom so I had to bring it with me to the next class which was Social Studies. During Social Studies my teacher was showing my class a video called, "Journey of Man" and I really liked it. Okay to be honest I didn't really like it because it was really old. Almost ten years, and it was on Youtube. So that meant whoever posted it must have done it when Youtube had its old layout.

After Social Studies my next period was community circle. The leader of community circle for my grade wasn't any of the teachers (I don't think so). The reason I say ,"Think" is because the person who was talking for about 95% of the time was the school's vice-principal, "Ms. Dalieon". I don't know wether thats how you actually spell it, but thats how it sounds like. For Community Circle the first thing the vice-principal talked about was how one of the kids in my class actually got a poem of his published in the newspaper. Apparently the whole summer he was trying to get one of his poems published and eventually it did.

For the rest of the school day it was just either boring or the usual. I mean the only thing that was good about today was the food. For lunch the school had hot dogs and that was great. Remember when I talked about the "Dinner (D.E.A.R)" well for "Dinner" my class had pasta! They literally gave us pasta. Something that was actually good. I felt so good when I ate it. I just don't get why they didn't have white milk and only chocolate. When school ended I got on my bus and it drove me all the way to my bus stop. Then I met my dad and we waited for my sister. Thats all that happened, see you later!

Diary September 12th 2017

When I woke up today it was 6:10 A.M. However I was feeling more tired than usual so I rested for another 10 minuntes. At 6:20 A.M my dad opened his door and told my sister and I to go downstairs. While walking down the stairs my dad told my sister to come back up and take a shower since the bathroom downstairs doesn't have a curtain. Because of that if you take a shower down all the water will get past the bathtub and make the floor wet. Last time I got the floor wet my dad got angry so I don't want that to happen again. 

After my sister finished taking a shower I took mine and then changed my clothes. For breakfast my dad made eggs and then heated up some bread to along with it. On the table there was butter and some special type of cream cheese called, " Cream Fresh". That isn't what it is actually called, but I don't know what the actual name is. Apparently its from France and supposed to be really good. My dad told me he got the cream cheese from some French men who were selling it outside of his work. He got a sample and thought it was great so he bought some for breakfast. 

After finishing my Breakfast and watching some TV I grabbed my bag and walked to my bus stop. I purposely didn't run because I knew that there was no need to be in a rush. The bus for my stop always comes at around 8:40 A.M and is supposed to some at 8:13 A.M. While I was walking it was only 8:01 A.M, because of that when I got to the bus stop there was no one there. I waited for 10 minutes and eventually some of the younger grades started to come. At around 8:35 A.M the bus came to the stop and I got on to take my seat. They told me to look for my name on top of the seats, but I couldn't find it so I just sat anywhere.

At school I jsut found out that I was in the advanced class. When I found out that I was so excited to tell my dad. I wondered how excited he would be. Unfortunately when I got home and told him he didn't even care. On second thought he may have cared a little, but I couldn't see it because he barely gave a reaction. Another thing that happened was that my teacher let me sit closer to the board so that I could see. It isn't that it was blurry for me, but because the people in the very front were blocking the bottom parts of the board. Now I could actually see the last few words of a sentence or the subtitles to a video.

Besides that nothing else really happened. When I got on to my afternoon bus, my friend wasn't there so I was stuck to doing nothing. When I got out of the bus adn walked home I saw that the door was locked and I didn't have my key. That is why I knocked onto the front door and then waited until someone opened it. Suddenly I looked to the other side of the street and saw that y sister was walking to the house. My dad was right behind her as well. That was actually really weird because when I got off my bus and checked my sister's stop I didn't see my dad, anyway thats it for today.

09/10/2017 Sunday

When I woke up the day before it was around 7:22 A.M. I could see that the light was shining outside, but my sister and dad were still sleeping. Since I didn't want my dad to get angry that I woke up early my instincts told me to go abck to sleep. At around 8:00 A.M I saw that my sister was not in her bed and could hear my dad watching something on his phone. Since I didn't have anything to do I just walked over to his room and looked at what he was looking at. Apparently he was on Facebook and was watching a movie that someone posted. The movie was about archers and Tibetan culture.

At 9:00 A.M my dad told me and my sister that it was time to go downstairs. I didn't want to go down, especially when he told me that we were going to go outside for breakfast. Thats why I talked him into sitting down and explained why I didn't want to go to. Eventually he said I could stay home, then walked downstairs with my sister. When the tow of them reached downstairs I checked my phone to see how much battery it had and brushed my teeth in the bathroom that was nearest to the room. After brushing my teeth I walked down the stairs and into the kitchen where I saw my dad making breakfast.

Since I was curious as to what I would be eating for the morning I walked over to him and tried to see what he was making. Apparenly he was using hamburger buns as part of our food. When he put the hamburgers buns on the plate they were all black on the bottom because he kept them on the pan for too long. This caused the bottom to smell bad and he put the plate to the side. Because of this my dad took another 5 buns and left them on the pan, carefully inspecting them for the right moment to place them on the plate. After 2 minutes he quickly grabbed the buns and threw them on the plate.

However buns (bread) aren't good unless there is something in the middle of them. That is why my dad also made some eggs with spinach inside of them. If he didn't put spinahc inside of them it would have been good, but as long as I can't taste the spinach a little something extra is always acceptable. After breakfast was finished I walked over to the playroom and started my homework. That involves the usual 5 paragraph post with reading as well. Once finishing these two my dad told me I could use my PS4. It was a long time since I used my PS4 so thats why the first thing I did when I got on was play Naruto Storm Four.

After about 5 hours my told me to get off and go return some books to the library. Then he handed me the library bag we have with the books inside and told me to go. Fortunately my sister went with me so I wasn't alone for teh whole walk tot he library and back. In total it took about 20 minutes to get to the library on foot, but once we got there I felt pretty relieved. We walked over to the front desk and gave the woman at the counter our books. After that the two of us looked around at the library for about a few seconds and then left to go back home. Once we reached our house my sister asked my dad if we could go to the park. That was the whole day so see you later!

9/9/17 Saturday

Yesterday was Friday and that also means the last day of school for the week. With that being said I started my day off by waking up at around 6:05 A.M. I did not want to have to start a fued with my sister  as soon as I woke up so I gently tapped her shoulder to wake her up and the two of us went downstairs. Once down I walked over to our bathroom and started to brush teeth. I wanted to aim precisely for the yellow parts of my teeth. However that doesn't mean that I ignore the rest of my teeth. 

You see, whenever I brush my teeth I brush ever tooth because if I don't it will feel dirty. For my sister and I it is customary for the both of us to eat cereal for breakfast whenever we are by ourselves. We both ate Cherrios since we didn't have a large variety of brands to choose from. After finishing our cereal it was around 7:00 A.M. I grabbed my shoes and took them to the living room where I could put them on. She did the same thing and at 7:10 A.M we both went outside and cautiously crossed the road to her bus stop. 

At the bus stop I took her to the other side of the road where everyone else was and we waited for the bus. As soon as the bus came I said goodbye to her and ran back home. At 8:00 A.M I ran to my bus stop because it was good excercise. While running to the stop I couldn't see anyone from my stop there. Fortunately though once I turned the corner I saw all the parents and their kids in a group standing near one of the stores. There were two sides in my bus stop. One side was for the 6th graders and the other was for the 7th graders.

While in bus to go to school I had to endure all the noises coming from the younger grades. I felt almost lucky not to be deaf from how loud they were once I got out of the bus they were just so obnoxious! At my classroom I saw that the seats were still as random as ever and my teacher let us pick wherever we wanted to sit. During ELA my teacher gave my classmates and I a new book to read called, "Hoot". I can't give a summary about the whole book since I juse got, but I hope to continue reading it.

When my school was finished I got onto my afternoon bus and was taken back to my bus stop. I remembered my dad telling me how crucial it was for me to go to my sister's bus stop as soon as I got dropped off. This was because he would still be at work and my aunt would be at work. However when I rushed to her bus stop my aunt was standing there talking to one of her friends that she made at the stop. When my sister's bus came all three of us walked home where I my dad was waiting for us. I say that I would comemerate myself for a good day!

9/07/17 Friday

At 6:04 A.M I woke up, I walked over to my sister's room and turned on her light. Then I told her to get up and go downstairs. Fortuanately she didn't argue with me and we went downstairs without an arguement. As soon as I reached downstairs I headed into the living room and turned on the TV. Then I watched it for about 50 minutes. When I saw how it was 6:50 A.M I rushed into the bathroom to change my clothes and eat cereal. At 7:10 A.M the two of us walked to her bus stop and waited for about 10 minutes. 

When the bus came I ran back into the house and continued to watch TV. At 7:50 A.M I brushed my teeth and then ran to my bus stop. At the bus stop I saw that everyone there was 6th or 7th grade. That was because the little kids (5th and below) had to start school earlier than the rest but they went home faster. Once I got to my school the first thing I did was head to my class. My bus was 20 minutes late, thats why when I got there everyone was already about to go to first period.

The first class that I had was Science. I went to my old classroom from last year because thats where the Science class was being held. I also had the same teacher as before. For some reason I feel as though ELA is so much longer than all my other classes. However I mostly feel that way only because it was half a day. After tomorrow I would no longer have a full half a day week. Once it was Monday I would start to have Math and Technology classes more than usual. Other classes like P.E and Social Studies would stay the same.

Once Science was over I went to P.E and did some activities. My teacher told the class that we would have to do warm ups at the beginning of class and at the end everytime we have P.E. I was actually pretty confused when we did the warm ups because I'm not good at remembering my left and right's. We just did some small little activities for the period and I didn't like it because it wasn't like last year where we did so many fun things. I just didn't like P.E today. There wasn't any point to even where my gym clothes.

The rest of my periods were the exact same, boring or just not of interest. When school ended I went into my bus and sat with my friend. He went onto his phone and got on youtube. Then typed in "Sad Satan" in the search bar. One of my other friends this morning told me something about "Sad Satan", but I didn't know what he was talking about. Turns out its some game that is super creepy and actually very scary. It will definitely give you nightmares. I can't even discuss it because of how scary it is, anyway thats it for the blog.

09/06/17 note

For me today was the second day of school. Now I know that some kids have just started school and that kind of makes me mad, but I'm not going to say anything. When I woke up it was 5:59 A.M. I was kind of surprised because my alarm clock was set at 6:00 A.M so it was only one minute before I should have woken up. I walked over to my sister's room and turned on her headlight. As soon as I turned it on she woke up and looked all grumpy. She even went back to sleep! However the both of us went downstairs and into the playroom where we started to get ready for school.

I actually just watched 30 minutes of TV, but once it was 6:30 A.M I started to change my clothes. I wore my red shirt today because yesterday my vice principal of the school told me students couldn't wear the blue shirts since they were for winter. As soon as winter started we would get to wear them. When brushing my teeth I saw that my hair was messed up so I put some water on it and then brushed it. For breakfast I didn't eat it at home, but at school I knew they would give me breakfast anyway. Once my sister and I were done we went through the back door and walked towards school.

Once my sister and I got to the school we headed into the front entrance. When i tried to get into the school they wouldn't let me in because it wasn't time for the 6th and 7th graders to go to school. Thats why I had to wait outside in the rain for 30 minutes. Once the bus came they let everyone who was outside come in. At my classroom the first period was Social Studies so my class walked downstairs to the class as a single file line. The school can sometimes get really cramped because there were 3 classrooms in one hallway today. 

Today for recess I saw one of my friends from last here who just came. He died his hair white and it looks really cool! One of my friends were chasing him because he looked like a K-Pop star. It was actually pretty funny and he was also getting chased by 3 other people. I was going to ask him if he wanted to play tag, but since he was getting chased I went onto the playground and used the monkey bars. Once recess was over I had to walk back into the building with all the other classes and eat lunch which wasn't good at all. A cold cheese sandwich with some ham as well.

When my school day was finished I got onto my bus and got dropped off near my house. Once I got off the bus I ran to my house to see if anyone was there and also because it's MY house. Unfortunately no one was there. That was until I saw my aunt's bag sitting on a chair in my kitchen. Thats when I realized she must be waiting at my sister's bus stop to pick her up. Once I took off my backpack and grabbed my keys I ran over to my sister's afternoon bus stop to see my aunt just standing there. I surprised her and then waited for the bus with her. At my house my dad came and my aunt told him about how my sister and I walked to school. So my dad took my sister and I into the car adn we drove to the school where we got the bus stop list. Thats it for today.

When I woke up today it was around 7:00 A.M. I heard someone in my dad's room and assumed it was him so I went back to sleep. After two hours I woke up again and went inside his room. Thats when I saw that he wasn't there. After that I heard the TV downstairs and thought it was him. But once I went downstairs to the living room I saw it was only my sister. That meant that he went to work. This surprised me because I didn't know he had work today and he didn't tell me.

 As I went into the kitchen I saw a note. It was from him, it said that he was coming back at around 2:30 to 3:00 P.M. That was the usual time he came home before Summer. The note also said that if I wanted General TSO Chicken I would have to take the money on the table ($7) and buy it from the store. I took the money and put it in my pocket so that I could use it when it was lunch time. However I didn't use the money anyway because it was raining outside and my sister didn't want food.

For today I read a book called "Wings of Fire: Escaping Peril". The Wings of Fire series is one that I will never forget because it is really creative. Okay so I know a lot of people may not agree with me when I say ,"creative" because the whole talking dragons concept has been going on for quite some time now. However I don't know any other dragon themed book that is as great as this one. I really wish they would turn this into a movie, but know thats not gonna happen. I also don't know how the movie would be made.

I kind of wanna talk about the book, but know you probably won't understand anything because you may not have read it. So I will summarize the main points of it. There are seven types of dragons in this book. The names are "Mudwings", "Sandwings", "Seawings", "Icewings", "Rainwings", "Skywings", and "Nightwings". In this book there was a war that happened having eventually ended. The reason this war ended was because of a group of dragons called, the "Talons of Peace". They stopped the war and saved countless lives.

During the beginning of the war a dragon by the name of Peril had been born in the Skywing Palace. It was a kind of dragon that could destroy or kill anything in its path, this is because the scales of this dragonet was pure fire. The Queen Scarlet decided to keep this dragon as a weapon to keep. When she was old enough Queen Scarlet put Peril in an arena where all of Scarlet's prisoners would have a chance to fight her. In the end they all died because Peril was too strong. Now Peril is free from Queen Scarlet, but what side will she choose, good or evil?

For today's post I am going to be talking about my first day of school. Its kind of unfair though because all the other schools in my area are open next week, during Thursday or Wednesday. I don't get why my school can't just be like the other schools. Anyway when I woke up it was 6:00 A.M. The reason I woke up so early is because of my school. It starts at around 8:30 A.M. However for my sister is starts at 8:00 A.M. The first thing I did was take a shower. This was because I wanted to be clean for the first day. I also just wanted to test the new conditioner my aunt got from BJ'S.

When finished with the shower I checked my watch and saw that it was 6:30 A.M. I knew that didn't give me a lot of time to brush my teeth, change my clothes, and eat breakfast, but I did it anyway. Fortunately I finished brushing my teeth at around 6:40 A.M and then changed my clothes. I was worried because when I tried on my clothes before it didn't feel comfortable. However when I put it on I felt relaxed and ready to go to school. For breakfast I had cereal with my sister, we were watching some TV.

Now time for school, when I got to school I went to my old classroom to see if anyone was there. There were people there, its just that they weren't 7th graders. They were 6th, thats why I asked my vice principal where 7th grade was. She told me they were on the 2nd floor so I went upstairs. She was right, all four classes were at the end of the hallway. I had to look at the classes from outside the door to see where my teacher was. The classroom that I last checked was where I found him so I entered it.

I picked my locker from all the ones that were left since some kids were already at the class. Then I unpacked my book bag and sat down. My first class was Social Studies and since I didn't have to do work for the first day I just breezed through the classes. It really wasn't hard since the only real work we had to do that day was write our names and parent information on a notecard. I was kind of sad since most of my friends from last year weren't in my class. However there were a few new ones that I made today while on the bus or during lunch. 

Before lunch started my teacher told me that now we were going to have two times where you can eat food. The first time was after two periods. ONLY, two periods which is like 1 hour! That means at like 10:00 A.M we have lunch. That is really so great! Then we have a second time to eat which is during 1:00 P.M. They call it "Dinner Time" which I don't know why since its still only the afternoon. Unfortunately we weren't able to experience "Dinner Time" because it was only a half a day. Today was by far one of the most interesting days I've had in my school year! Thats all for today!

Yesterday I went with my aunt to Newport mall. The reaosn we went to Newport mall was because she wanted to go and pay her AT&T bill. The reason I went with my aunt was because I was bored and had nothing to do. My sister just didn't want to be alone so she went iwth us. The three of us went to the bus stop and waited for a good 15 minutes. While waiting we had to use our umbrellas because it started raining. 

When the bus finally came I got on the bus and sat on the first seat I could find. There were a bunch of anonymous people on the bus that I didn't know, but I tried my best not to stare and just talked to my sister. There was a guy in front of my sister and I and looked annoyed when my sister tried to take my phone away from me. I can't blame him, my sister made a lot of noise. I was simultaneously using my phone while trying to count my money in case I dropped any.

Once we got to Newport mall my aunt noticed that my phone didn't ahve a cover and asked me if I wanted to get a phone cover. I gladly said yes because I didn't my phone to turn like my sister's (not working anymore). Only a minute of walking we found a booth where a guy was selling phone covers. I decided that was the place where we would get my cover and we walked over to him. There weren't an abundant amount of choices, but one of the cases looked really cool so I got it.

After the cases my we went upstairs to the second floor to the AT&T store. That wya my aunt cna pay her bill, when she finished paying her bill I asked if I could check the iPhone 6 prices. Turns out that they were only $200. My aunt told me at the store where she fixed my phone there was a used iPhone 6 that costed $100. She regrets fixing my phone and said she could have gotten me an iPhone 6 for only an extra $10. She must have been infuriated, but once we got some ice cream she calmed down.

Lastly we went to McDonalds because I wanted lunch. After that all of us went to BJ'S to get snacks for the house since we don't have any more. While getting the snacks my aunt looked around the store since she hadn't been there for a while. While waiting for her to finish I went on my phone and then sat on a couch. Thirty minutes later they came back and payed for the snacks. My aunt also got somethinig for herself and conditioner. It was raining outside so I was pretty depressed when we got home all soaking wet, anyways that is it for my trip.

September 2nd post

Today the time that I woke up was around 7:30 A.M. My sister went to my dad's bed and he started tickling her. Because of that my sister kept on laughing and I couldn't sleep. However I still stayed in bed because I knew she would stop eventually. As soon as she did, I closed my eyes and got comfortable in bed. Then my dad told her that they are going downstairs. As soon as I heard that I panicked and didn't know what to do. My sister had already got downstairs, but my father was using the bathroom. 

After that he told me to get up, wash my face, and brush my teeth, I am not exaggerating So I got up and walked downstairs to the bathroom. From there I brushed my teeth. Once I finished brushing my teeth I cleaned my mouth with some water and a towel, then went back to the kitchen. My sister told me that my dad was making some chapati so I was a bit excited since I adored it! I went to the living room so that I could charge my phone. Then went back to the kitchen.

My dad was putting the plates on the table which already had eggs on them. He also put the bread on a plate that was in the middle of the table. The majority of the chapati was at the bottom of the plate because on top there were regular pieces of bread. Thats why I had to grab the chapati from underneath the rest of the bread. Anyway my breakfast was pretty good and I really enjoyed it. While eating I heard a knocking on the door and since my sister was talking to my dad I got it. 

It was my aunt. She came back after a week. She told us that she went to a monastery to pray and now that she finished she's happy. My dad put a plate for her and told me to get a cup. Then he poured milk into the cup for my aunt and kept on eating his food. My aunt took her food and went to the living room where I was reading my book. She asked me it was okay if she watched TV while I was reading and I told her yes. On the news I saw the hurricane "Harvey" and was devastated!

That hurricane would cost a massive amount of money to repair! On the news they said that hurricane "Sandy" cost about 160 billion dollars to repair. That is so much money and to think ,"Harvey" will be 190 billion dollars! Wow, good thing the U.S government makes the money. Or else we would all be in some trouble. Once I finished reading my remarkable book I went to the computer and started typing this. As this very moment my dad and sister are watching TV in the living room, that is my day.
