The first period was Social Studies and I wanted to ask my teacher why he thought Donald Trump taking away the Iran deal was bad. This is only because my dad gave me some new information yesterday and I wanted to see what my teacher thought about it. However, I wasn't able to ask him anything because the curriculum that my class is in is about Isreal. In fact, we were supposed to watch "Black Panther" today because my teacher got the DVD but apparently, the computer that he was using had a very old DVD player. That's why instead we watched a documentary about "How Isreal was Founded". This is related to the conflict about whether Isreal or Palestine should get "Jerusalem" for themselves. Like I've stated before Donald Trump shouldn't put the U.S Embassy there because all he wants is attention. There isn't anything positive about this at all. 

After Social Studies my class had P.E and I got really excited. This is because my class is doing the Soccer Unit and today we were starting a tournament. I knew that today my teacher would pick 5 team captains and there would be 5 to 6 players on each team. I didn't want to be someone that kicked or passed because it meant I would have to give the ball to someone else from time to time. However, if I played in the goal it would let me practice at a much faster pace and besides, I like how hard it is to be a good goalie. My teacher had no problem with this, especially since I called it first, but something that really annoyed me was how people couldn't follow directions. For instance, the players weren't allowed to be in the little square that surrounded the front of the goal. But, of course, most of the kids would just stay there and when the ball came kick it in from like 2 feet away.

Thankfully, my teacher who was also the referee made it clear after the 5th time it happened. During Lunch, my class was supposed to go outside again, even though we were just dying from the burning heat a few seconds ago. I thought that was pretty dumb but tried not to be a sore loser about it. While in recess I was just enjoying myself in the shade of the school's courtyard when the lunch attendants said everyone was supposed to go to the field. I thought this was crazy because now we were forced to go in the heat. In fact, you know what happened today? I didn't even get to eat Lunch! Let me explain before recess was over my teacher told me and my classmates that we were picked to be the class that participates in a "test". Well, really it was an adult that was a candidate for becoming next year's P.E teacher. 

I honestly think that the dude we were with seemed pretty chill. He also didn't seem that physically fit but who cares! I mean, in my 3rd-grade school the lady wasn't that fit as well, but she still taught like a boss. We played a game called, "Speed Ball", so the game would start off with a person having the ball in their hands. They could only take a few steps before having to pass it to another person. However, if that person dropped the ball the whole game shifts to Soccer. So you would have to kick the ball to the other side of the field. I thought this was fun game but was confused at the last part. You see if you still had the ball and was close to scoring you needed to pass it to 3 girls on your team. Then, you could just kick it in.

Now I was extremely shocked when I read this post. Apparently, there was a woman that paid only $28 a month for her rent! That's crazy, I'm assuming this is because her apartment was trash and sure enough it was. But come on, she still had a fireplace, two beds, a shelf, and a bathroom! According to the post, the woman was 83 years old but died because lightning struck her. When she first lived in the building it was actually only $16! But then, the rent went a little higher until finally, it rested for $28. The landlord said that he and the previous owner of the building were both friends with the woman so they had no problem of letting her rent stay at $28. After she died the landlord said he'll fix everything up and make the rent $5,000 a month. That's crazy, but then again New York does cost a lot.
