I was on a ship and all of a sudden the ship crashes onto an island. I found a small cave in the middle of the island. It wasn’t that spacious but it would do. I settled in and got some supplies from the crashed ship. It wasn’t much but it was enough for a few days. The next day I scouted to see if there was anything in this island that could be useful. As I scouted I started hearing random sounds around the island. I was starting to think that I wasn’t alone. The next day I started a routine. First I would try to look for food and the next thing I would do is find water. The last thing I would do is try to upgrade my shelter as much as possible.

If I had to pick a favorite subject it would be math. The reason my favorite subject is math is because you learn real life skills. You need to know how to do measurements or pay bills in real life when you grow up and most jobs require you to do math. The second reason is it makes you pay attention to the class because you are learning different forms of math. Sometimes you need to do different types of math to do different types of things like fractions and decimals. The third and final reason I like math is because it’s fun to learn about new forms of math. Much people don’t like math but I’m the few that I think math is pretty cool.

Dumbledore once said, “We must all face the choice between what is right and what is easy”.  What this quote means to me is in order to grow you  need to get out of your comfort zone and do the hard work. This relates to me because I am more focused on doing my homework than doodling around because doodling around doesn’t produce anything. The second way that I read is if you do what is the best instead of doing what is easy for example like making fun of other people than you are showing your true self to people and showing who you are as a person. The third and last thing that I learned from this quote is to never give up on your dreams and keep fighting for them.

The person I greatly admire is my dad. The reason I greatly admire him is because he has always been supporting me. He gives me advice on my soccer games and he also helps me get better at soccer.  The second reason I admire him is because he is a great role model as well. He always tells me to do my chores and disciplines me and teaches me things that I don’t know how to do. The third reason I greatly admire him is because he always pushes me to do new things that either I’m scared to do or don’t wanna to do. And ninety percent of the time I end up liking it and it changes how I see it.

this month I read a book called The Fort by Gordon Korman. It’s about a kid with a past that he wants to forget about and wants a fresh new clean start and they tell each other their secrets in order to help each other out. The reason I liked this book is because It unlocks a lot of secrets about the characters and who they truly are and they also reveal their personality’s. One of my favorite quotes are. “ it takes pretty amazing friends to risk the greatest thing they’ve ever had to help you when you need it.” This quote is meaning full to me because it really takes amazing friends to sacrifice things for you even if they don’t benefit from it. One of my favorite characters is Ricky. The reason he is one of my favorite characters is because he has a great personality and he is important to the plot.

This year I am going to focus on the word focused. The reason I wanna be focused is because I wanna get higher grades than last semester the higher the better. The second reason I wanna focus on this word is because I also wanna be better at other things that I’ve been doing recently. The third and final reason I wanna be be focussed is because I don’t wanna face any distractions because last semester I can say that I was kinda distracted a lot which would impact on how I do things during school and at home. So this year I wanna focus on the things that matter and on the things that don’t.

I have been told that I was gonna be principal for a day! Here are the top five things I would do for the day. The first thing I would do is play soccer with everybody in the school because soccer is my favorite sport in the world and I think that it would be a great way to socialize with everyone. The second thing I would do is invest more playing equipment that way everybody’s morale is boosted. The third thing I would do is have P.E for the whole day. The reason I want to do this is because everybody needs to take off some stress off their mind and relax. The fourth thing that I would do is have more electives for the school. The more the better and plus, it’s good for every one to explore different things. The final and last thing I would is have more lunch options. The reason I would do this is because if I’m being completely honest, the lunch options here are pretty mid. Therefore adding more options would add more of a variety of choices to choose from. For example: adding Mac n’ cheese to the variety would make the lunch system SO much better and this what I would’ve done if I was principle for a day.

I am thankful for many things this year, but here are the three top things. One of the things I am thankful for is my family. The reason I put my family at number one is because they have been there for me through thick and thin and they always supported me for everything I was doing. The second thing I’m grateful for is my dog. The reason I’m thankful for my dog is because he is a very protective dog and the thing he’s most protective of is my sister. Third thing I’m thankful for is my video games. The reason I’m thankful for my video games is because they are the backbone of reliving my boredom and stressfulness I only play on the weekends which I don’t mind that way I can focus on school and not lose track. That’s my list for the top three things I’m thankful for.

Wow! I was granted three wishes! The first thing I would wish for is to go to Mexico for vacation. The reason I want to go is because my parents work so hard and they need some relaxation. They go to work every day just for us. The second wish is for my grandpa to get better from his current sickness which relates with to his brain. The third wish I would like is for everyone. I want everyone in my family to live forever because I love everyone in my family very much and I would hate for them to pass away. These are the wishes I would want if I was granted three wishes.
