Today was Gifted and Talented and P.E! I was really excited about this while getting ready for school. Unfortunately, my mother could not be in the morning to drop my sister so my aunt said she would do it. I decided not to take a shower because my dad said it wastes too much money. Instead, I just washed my face a lot more and wet my hair (in order to brush it again). For breakfast, I made me and my sister some "Cinnamon Cereal". I told her that I didn't make it for her (lied) and she got really upset. My excuse was that she never makes it for me, which by the way is true, and she yelled at me. Eventually, my sister said sorry after seeing how I actually did make it and left to go to her bus stop with my aunt. I could understand where she was coming from considering how I usually get mad at her too.

At 8:00 A.M I put on my jacket, locked the door behind me, and ran to my bus stop (while making sure to be careful in case of slipping). There were two girls who got there before me but I was 3rd place. The other kids at the bus stop (who were 6th grade) came a few minutes later. I was wondering where the bus was because it took longer than usual. However, I started seeing it down the street and got ready to get inside. While on the bus I started re-reading the chapter of my book called, "Christmas Eve". Today I was supposed to take the quiz but didn't (will explain later). The first period was Social Studies and I honestly forgot what the teacher was talking about. Oh wait for nevermind, we reviewed a letter made by a former slave called, "Abraham Johnstone".

Apparently, the man had made the letter right before getting hanged in a courtyard at the prison. This happened in 1797, the man was convicted of murder and to this day no one knows whether it was true or not. In the letter he wrote to his wife Abraham says he is innocent but is ready to quit this world. Then, in the letter, he writes his will, basically what he gives to certain people. It seems really sad if he was actually innocent and someone framed him. And just so you know, this happened during the American Revolution, where slavery was growing massively and everyone wanted some black slaves to work for them. After Social Studies was P.E! My class started our Fitness Tests and today we did the Push-Ups and Sit-Ups. 

I know I definitely didn't do the best but improved greatly! Last year I had gotten around 10 Sit-Ups but this year I got around 36. The pushups were the same old same old. Just minor improvement, today I just did an extra 2 pushups which when you really think about is basically nothing. I'm going to skip Lunch because we didn't even go outside anyway. The technology class was a really good period because there was only a small assignment given. It took approximately 5 minutes to complete and I spent the rest of my time playing, "Bullet Force" with my friends. Once class ended most of the students left. However, I had Gifted and Talented and stayed here. It was a fun period because my team was building some type of park. I genuinely enjoyed it and hope to do some more next Tuesday.

Google News

The story I read and watched a video about is called, "Self-made billionaire Jack Ma: How to be successful in your 20s, 30s, 40s and beyond". Jack Ma is a "Chinese business magnate", meaning he is the owner of a company, he's Chinese, and is very wealthy. The man has a net worth of around 50. 5 billion dollars! Now, I know I'm the best-looking person out there, but this guy doesn't look "professional" at the very least. The one thing that stands out about him is the small eyes and a weird haircut. Besides that, his shirt and tie make him look, "business-like". Anyway, this post talks about how the man himself states you should "live your life". According to him, when your 20 to 30 the first thing you should do is try and find a good company and learn. Then at 30 to 40 you need to do something yourself because you can still afford to fail. Thw hole age group goes on and on. At 60 years old and higher, you need to stay with your grandkids (thats what he says). Thanks for reading and see you later.
