AHW, going to the fair 2

last friday i went to the Saint Mary's fair. I went with my family and my friend Logan's family. When we got to the park me and my brother, mom and Logan went on the ferris wheel. we went around and around until it was over. after that we went on the longest roller coaster there. We waited in the line for about 5 minutes before getting on the ride. We tried to get on with my dad but he was to tall. So i went with my brother,mom and Logan again. After the roller coaster we did a baseball thing. My brother went, and for the final  one he guessed the speed right and got one of the really big blow up bats. When i went i was one mile off and i got a smaller base ball bat,Logan also got a smaller bat. Then we did one of those water shooter games. My dad ended up winning. He chose a prize and we went on. So we continued onto going on more rides. One ride was a hang glider where you lay down and you go around in circles. And me and Logan went into a house of mirrors fun house. I found the stairs first, so I ran up the stairs and went around the corner. I waited until my friend showed up, and when he got up i popped out and scared him. Me and Logan also went on a swing ride. We sat down and relaxed. Me, my brother and Logan went into the bumper carts as well. We went around banging into each other until the time was over. My dad, Logan, Logan's mom, my brother and i also went down a gigantic slide on mats. The final ride we went on was the hang glider again. But finally around 10:00 we left. We all had a really good time. 

Journal Response Entry 1

Journal Response Prompt. How are you alike/different from the main character? Be specific! 

5/28/14

The ways that me and Daniel from Jump ship to freedom are alike are. First we are both kids, and we both live in the USA. We are also alike because we both care about our family's a lot. Another way is we both think slavery is horrible. The ways that me and Daniel are different are. I live in Michigan and Daniel lives in Connecticut. Another way we are different is that he's African american and I am not. Also he lives in the 1700's and I live in the 21st century. Also his dad is dead and my dad is still alive. Another way that me and Daniel are different is he is a little older than me.So i think for one thing is that we are in more ways different then alike. Those are the comparisons between me and Daniel from jump ship to freedom.

AHW, getting our tetherball court

Today when me, my brother and mom got home my mom said there was a surprise. I tried to look out the window to see what is was, but i already knew. It was our brand new tether ball court! It was supposed to be done tomorrow but i guess they finished it early! Me and my brother were really excited, we had been waiting since mid winter. As soon as we parked me and my brother rushed to the tether ball court made rules and started playing. By the first game i won in two or three minutes. But when me and my brother switched sides and made new rules, it was about to start a very long game. After about 35 minutes of playing my brother won by a very little bit. I am really happy to finally have our tether ball court. 

AHW, Vegas roller coaster

A few years ago i went on my first upside down roller coaster. It was a indoor one in a hotel in vegas. I was pretty freaked out about it. It had two loops and a cork screw. I sat next to my dad, behind my cousin Ava and my aunt. Then the roller coaster started to move. The roller coaster took off pretty fast and went down a slope. Before i knew it i was going up a loop. it went around the loop and onto the next one. After the loops were over there was a sideways turn. We spun around the corkscrew, but i kept my eyes closed on that part. After that was just going to the end and a small turn. I was still pretty freaked out about upside down roller coasters, but this ride helped a little bit. That was the first time in my life i went on a upside down roller coaster.

AHW, being sick

Today i was sick. I started off the day with waking up with a horrible runny nose. Waited in bed and watched tv. My mom said i couldn't go to school, Now this might sound good to some people butit isn't   because its tough being sick. So eventually around 11:00 i went down into our basement and played castle crashers, which is just a arcade game on the X-Box360. But eventually i had to go with my mom to her office.  We were there until 2:45, but i had my phone with me and i downloaded a new free fun game on it. But there was no time to go back home after that. By the time we were down with her work, it was 3:20. That meant that we had to go pick up my brother at Quarton at 3:50. So eventually we got home but, yet again it was no time for a break,besides watching TV for 45 minutes. Though soon after that i had to start homework. That was my day while i was sick.

AHW, Going to a barmtisiba

Last Saturday i went to my cousin chases barmitsiba. In the morning at 10:30 we went to the service. But at 6:30 there was the party. I went with my cousin Ava, my grandma and my family. When we got there the adults were down stairs, while all the kids were on another floor. My cousin invited his entire 7th grade. So it was a bit strange at first. While my parents and grandma were down stairs, me,my cousin and my brother were upstairs.  we snacked a bit and waited around. eventually after all the parents were upstairs they showed a slide show. Then we all went and ate dinner. After dinner we danced,and also got cool stuff for dancing. Before my parents,grandma,brother,cousin and me left we took photos. One of me and my brother and cousin,one with everybody,and one with just my brother and parents. I had a really good time.
