HEY!!!!!!

Well in world geography this week we worked on maps of southwest Asia. We are doing both political and physical, but we got assigned one on Monday and the other on Tuesday (I think I might be wrong sorry). I do not remember which one was first so I can not tell you. We also had a project due on Thursday. It was an African Mask project, where we had to create our own mask, and a ritual to go along with it. I made an elephant that was used by the Bamileke people in Cameroon. It was used for a celebration of a new leader taking position. Mine was not the best but I think (well I really hope!) I got a grade. We presented them to the class. I really did not enjoy this part. I don't like to talk in front of crowds, even though the classroom only had about 30 people it was still scary.

I do not really know what else to write. Yesterday (Friday) I hurt my foot, a little above where your ankle is and so today in dance class I had to sit out. That was not very fun, but all this week was great.

Ok well talk to you all later!!!!!

Hello!!!!

This week in World Geography we had a test. It was on Africa. I really hope I got a good grade. It had multiple choice, maps and essay questions. We also have a project. It is to create an African Mask. I am working on it right now. It seems like it is going to be fun! 

Last week was our Spring Break. We had no school for a week. My family and I went to the Nation's Capital. Washington DC. We stayed there the whole week. It was tons of fun. We went to different monuments, and museums. The Smithsonian Museums are amazing! They have so much to see. The Air and Space, Natural History, Holocaust, American Indian, those were some of the museums. Also I went to the National Zoo!! It was exciting. I saw PANDAS!! They were so cute. I'm going to put up some pictures.

See ya!

HI!!!!!

This week in World Geography we had a disscussion about the genocide in Rwanda. I think that it is a really sad subject. Also it is confusing. I did not get a very good grade because I do not like to talk in front of a lot of people, so I only spoke 2 times when each person was supposed to speak four times. But I have a chance to make it up this Friday with a disscusion on the genocide in Darfur, Sudan. Today we got assigned our African Mask Projects. They sound like a lot of fun, very time consuming. I am really exitced!!!

Ok! In my life today was a very stressing day. I woke up and went to a Dance Clinic at 7:15 in the morning. I went through school, then right after school I went to an audition for my schools dance team.  I got ready with make-up and hair and got dressed. At five or five thirty the real audition started. We (me and my other friends that tried out) stayed there untill about 8:10! I got home and at 9:00 I supposed to call a number to find out if I made or not. So I called it. And...I MADE IT!!!! I am excited, but it is a lot of work. And I know almost everyone that made it, and my friends Katelyn and Liz made it too.
