11/23/2017

Yesterday was Thanksgiving and I really enjoyed it! When I woke up I heard my sister talking to my dad and headed over to the two of them. Then we were all just joking and having fun for about 20 minutes. At 8:15 A.M my dad told me that I wouldn't have to do any homework because it was a holiday. This made me really happy and ran downstairs with so much excess energy. I immediately ran to the suitcase in the living room to get my games but it was locked. I was going to ask my dad but didn't want to disturb him or make him angry since he was making breakfast. I guess I should tell you what he made, eggs and rice. I was going to "fried" rice but knew that it was white and not yellow. 

After finishing the breakfast my dad took the games out of the suitcase and let me play . Once I played for a decent amount of time my dad came downstairs from his bed and told me that we were going outside. I was pretty upset about this but after a while I got over it. When everyone was dressed up and ready my dad took my sister and I inside the car and we started driving. Since he didn't tell me where we were going my brain was thinking of places he was most likely to drive to. Another 5 minutes went by in the car and I was thinking that we were going to Jersey Shore. However he made a sharp turn and that was when I realized our destination, "Newport Mall". 

During this time I was still mad about the game situation so I didn't ask any questions bu before I entered the entrance to the mall there was a huge line of people outside of JCPenny. Immediately I thought, "BLACK FRIDAY". That was also the reason my dad took us to the mall. First, we walked upstairs to the food section. A lot of the stores were closed and I think this is because it was Thanksgiving so the owners were giving them a break from work. The only place that my sister and I actually liked was "Subway". Usually we would go to "Panda" because of the chicken and noodles (it was closed). My sister ordered the regular, Italian bread, tuna, swiss cheese, lettuce, and ketchup. I got the same thing so I wondered why we didn't just order one large one.

The next thing that we did was go check Sears and JCPenny (other entrance). When that was all done all of us walked back to parking lot. While walking the line grew so much longer! It was like 200 people before, now its like 600! I'm literally not even lying. Anyway, as I got to the car my dad walked right past it and then I realized that he was going to ShopRite. He told me that he wanted to get a Turkey for us to eat at home. Unfortunately, they had none left because they ran out. Then my dad decided to get some chips but saw the line. It was almost half the length of the JCPenny! I wasn't that surprised because they did say the store was going to close soon. Thankfully, my sister walked over to us and held a bag of Donuts that one of the lady's at the store gave to her. 

That was as much as I can tell because I want to talk about Google News. This one story's title was "The Future Looks Bright: Light Pollution Grows on a Global Scale". This seemed like a pretty funny pun and it took a while before I understood it. Anyway, the story covers how light pollution has increased and many countries. Especially, in Germany and Italy. Austraila's lit area has lessened due to many wildfires which I have covered in previous posts. A scientist had said that the more light that brights up the sky also affects your sleep. That means that if we don't act soon, there won't be any such thing as day and night. Just day, and day only. I know the government can do stuff like turn off lights on the streets and that could dramatically decrease the light pollution but its always good to be careful.
