  My thoughts on Summertime are mostly the same as many people. I personally like Summertime for many reasons but my main reason would have to be swimming in refreshing pools and going to the beach with my family. During Summer it is also my birthday and I usually get to have a party since it is still on Summer break. Some other reasons I love Summer is because I get to go on vacations, I have the chance to relax, and because I am able to sleep in without being disturbed. Summer is also the hottest time of the year and I usually don’t like the heat which sometimes is a downgrade. Many people like Summer because there is no school but I disagree with them. Whenever there is no school, I tend to be bored and tired. School just keeps me awake and occupied.  Overall, I am pretty excited about Summer but I also have some things that I am not excited for. If I am going to be honest, I really do enjoy regular school days IN PERSON because I get to learn new things and have breaks wit...

Now that summer has officially begun, my school is off for a few monthssss. I have mixed feelings about this but I still am reflecting on how my different year went. There were many ups and downs during the third trimester but it was less stressful since school was getting closer to ending. The third trimester was probably the easiest since we covered most of the standards and we just needed to review and learn a couple new things. We did a lot of shapes and fractions in math. Most of the shapes and angles were the tricky part since we learned fractions before.   In language arts, we had a couple more writing tests and they were about things that we have learned before. We mostly covered character traits, continues figurative language, and learned some new vocabulary words. In social studies, we covered more on the 13 colonies and learned about all the acts and events that led up to the revolutionary war. We also learned about some important people and what they did. In s...

 As my school year is coming to an end, I am thinking through everything that happened this school year. So many things were different and at the beginning it felt strange and awkward. Thinking back to everything that happened this year, I’m still doubting if it was a good year or not. Of all the events that happened… It’s hard to decide. First Trimester The first trimester of my 5 th grade school year was probably the worst since we were still getting used to distance learning. This was also the trimester where my grades were the lowest and I was still confused on this whole distance learning format. The first day of school was probably the smoothest out of the whole trimester since we did not have to do work and we just got introduced to our teachers.   Since we didn’t have work, we weren’t asking questions all day and we just were kind of quiet and confused. This trimester, we did some fun things such as dress up days and also some drawings projects. Honestly, I do...

My mother’s day of 2021 has been fun, different, and of course loving. My sister and I made some gifts for her since she does so much for my family and I. My mom is very helpful and she helps my sister and I with so many things. This year, my sister and I bought a big canvas and come paint so we could paint a picture for her. We ended up painting some flowers that we had painted in. The painting is on our wall since my sister and I worked really hard to finish it for our mom. This wasn’t the only gift we gave her though. I pained a few rocks for her since I wanted to make something personalized for her.   Throughout the day, my sister and I tried to be as helpful as we could to let my mom have a day to be lazy. My sister and I also tried to not fight as much since we usually have arguments over very stupid subjects.   During dinner, we also bought food from one of my favorite dinner restaurants, Stonefire grill. We played some fun family games and it felt good being wi...

"Yay!! We're finally here!" Lauren, my best friend said excitedly. "I know!! I'm excited to go camping for the first time!" I told my besties, Sofia and Lauren. "Welp hope we don't get killed by animals" Sofia joked with us. "Hahaha'' Lauren and I laughed but something seemed different about her laugh. "We should set up our tents now, it is getting kind of dark." I told my friends. "Good idea" Lauren replied. Now, I don't remember much but the last things I remember were Sofia and Lauren fighting about something. They weren’t very good friends yet they never had argued like this before. "Woah guys CALM DOWN!" I said trying to break their argument. Needless to say, they weren't a good combo. "Sof something I don’t need to say your name correctly, Be quiet" Lauren said harshly to Sofia. "Stop!!!" Sofia jotted back to her. "You guys, this is ridiculous, you're 13 and y...

Ever since May of 2020, I have had a Youtube channel where I posted Roblox videos. Since then, I have only gotten to about 20 subscribers and most of them were my friends and people that I knew. But I still have a lot of fun recording a editing my videos even if I am a very small Youtuber. I decided to make a list of what popular Roblox Youtubers have that I don’t to see if I can become bigger on Youtube.

Spring break has sadly ended but during the break, I did so many fun activities. We had so much and we made many memories that I will remember forever. We went to Carlsbad for 4 nights and stayed at 2 hotels. On the first day, we stayed in the hotel room and planned all the fun activities we would do. We had Mac and Cheese for dinner and we took a walk around our big hotel. We explored all of the features our hotel had to offer and found some really cool places. The next day, we went to a nearby lake/lagoon and rode a swan boat. We had to “paddle” the boat with our feet like a bike and it was a real leg workout. We saw some private islands and felt the cold blue water. After boat riding, we got lunch from the Carlsbad outlets and went back to our hotel room. We ate lunch and my sister and I played some Roblox. After about 2 hours, we went swimming in the hotel pool. Our hotel also had a mini waterslide and water sprayers. We played in the pool for about 1 and a ½ hours, my sister l...
