11/29/2017

As seconds went by I was wondering when first period was going to start. While waiting I was eating breakfast that the school provided in the morning. It was the same, Cheerios, apple, crackers, orange juice, and a carton of milk. At 8:55 A.M my teacher announced that all kids walk downstairs to Social Studies. I was one of the first period seemingly because I was just waiting for him to say that. During Social Studies we talked about a mix of different stuff. Even though, my teacher said that he wanted to start with J.F Kennedy we ended the class talking about the Doctrine of Discovery and what Trump calls, "Lets Make America Great Again". My teacher asked us all, "How far back is when America was apparently, great..". 

I wondered the same thing but wasn't able to ask him anything because it was time for Community Circle. All the 7th grade classes lined up along the walls until our principal gave us permission to go inside the room. Then everyone sat down and waited for her (principal) to start talking. For today's community circle two things were going to happen. One, the school has a dance group that were specifically chosen to perform in front of the whole grade. They have been practicing for a pretty long time considering how they give up their recess to get ready for their performance. Another reason I'm excited about this is because one of my friends is part of the group and he has been working pretty hard as well.

Lets just say, the dance was amazing! I really enjoyed it because of the way they implemented all of those modern dances that have become extremely popular. However, the people who were in the performance were complaining a lot. One of the girls said that a boy pushed her really hard by mistake and another complained he thought he was too slow compared to everyone else. I don't know what they were talking about because it was amazing but then again, I wasn't part of the people actually in the play. The second thing that took place in the community circle was about tobacco. A woman who I forgot the name of, came into the room and had a ppowerpoint explaining why tobacco is bad for you.

She explained the new types of ways that companies are selling cigarattes and how they want younger people to get addicted so they have higher sales. Almost 480,000 people die everyday from smoking because of lung cancer. The top three ways people have been dying in the United States is from 1.Heart Attacks, 2.Lung Cancer, 3.Something else. I can't remember but for some reason, when I type in "Top Three ways people have been dying" its says stuff like heart disease and stroke which isn't what the woman says. I'm going to say that woman needs to get her facts straight because the internat almost always has the right answer when you need information about something.

Google News! One of the newest and most popular games of the year, Fortnite, has added 9 new weapons to its game. Before, it only had stuff like pistols and regular guns but now it has hammers and energy rifles! That makes me even more excited, especially with a new sniper. Now, I don't want to go to indepth with this because I know my dad likes actual news. So on the news it talks about how North Korea says that they aren't going to talk to the United States about their nuclear weapon system until after its complete which sounds like a pretty mean thing to do. Many people are concerned that when North Korea is "Done" they will have a very strong and scary nuclear weapon power. Anyway, see you later.
