I Just Didn't Use My Head

“I JUST DID NOT USE MY HEAD



Are you the kind of person who hates Monday morning? Well I am one of those people, and I can tell you that a way to ruin my day is by stealing things from me. It was early morning 6:15 AM, and the first thing I heard was, “ALAN!!” roared out by Ezy  I did not want to answer him because I thought it was the same old joke from my brother Ezy, until I realized he was wearing my new favorite shoes. The first thing I knew then was that I couldn’t let him escape.



His first reaction when he saw me was to throw my shoes out of the window and run away into the house, “Noooooo” I screeched and of course I started to chase him. There was a point where he went around the whole house  about five times as fast as he could, until he locked himself in his room. I swelled in anger and my fist got crunched up and went directly into the door. ”Boommmmmm”!! The door cracked  from top to bottom, and my brother started crying. I was excited because I thought I had already caught him. Until I saw my mom with her big black eyes staring at me and my whole body stopped. I thought about what I was doing and then started to shake. “Mom but but he stole my sho” I cried back She slapped me as hard as she could and told me that I had to pay for his door plus taking off mine and giving it to him. I thought this punishment was not fair since children like me also have private things to do and need a door,  not just adults. Also  I spent my money often so at that time I was pretty much broke.       

What I learn from this is that from now on I will always use my head and think before acting. I hate losing my money and doors. I also felt a bit disappointed by my actions because I should have stopped and thought about it and maybe that wouldn't have happened. What was I thinking when I broke his door? From now on I would not care about what Ezy uses that is under my control. For the future I will change all my reaction and what I do when I don't like when they do something I hate I will try to be more positive and concern of what I am doing

I Am Poem

“I Am”
I am positive and charming
I wonder what would happen if my parents wouldn’t have married
I hear people shouting at me to follow the right path, right now
I see how my parents are always there with and beside me all the time
I want to have great friends, great family, a great environment and  a great community
I am positive and charming

I pretend I am my dad, and act as if I was him, and pretend I have all his problems
I feel that people think I am a great person and have great attitude
I touch the humongous Western wall with all my future in it
I worry that I will be destroyed and in a depression for a year if my parents died
I cry when things remind me of my best service lady who was always there for me for 12 years
I am positive and charming

I understand how my home country is not the same as 20 years ago and I always have to listen to my parents
I say that Venezuela will have an incredible change in about fifteen years
I dream I will become a famous person and donate money to the people who will need it most
I try to maintain the same strong relationship with my family because there is nothing better than your family
I hope all of us could live forever

I am positive and charming

Pre Algebra Arts Integration Project Reflection

This is the arts integration project for math. This was a fun project to do, mine turned out really good and I think I did a good job on putting the right coordinates, so that the person would have a similar drawing as mine. I think I could make it a little bit more clear on the paper what the person was supposed to do, and overall they look alike. I am sure that it was creative to draw the empire state building.

Pre Algebra Chapter 3 test reflection

In this particular test I was away for one week, so I missed the test and needed to take it after school. I also needed to catch up with the rest of the class. I did my best and I think I got a good result.  I could have checked more carefully question number 5 but in general I did the test checking all my answers carefully. I think I did a good job and I feel happy with my grade.

Pantomimes


The thing that I would have improved on is that I could have been more serious and more quiet and try to be more of how the object, and we should try to make the scene like in real life, to make something that looks or feels like something real.

Moss has strong potential to global warming

Mosses have strong potential to acclimate to global warming, study indicates

Tropical moss of the species Leucoloma Cruegerianum at a study site in western Panama.

Researchers from the University of Oldenburg, Germany and the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama, collected 15 individual plants each of 9 common species of moss or bryophytes  found growing at cool higher altitudes in the tropics and transplanted them at lower altitudes where temperatures were warmer. 
Higher temperature can reduce a moss's photosynthesis and cause it to die, but this experiment proved otherwise.
For an experiment, some scientists planted some moss at different temperatures and the most tested species survived most at higher temperatures. And that is what is happening to the earth. The temperature is rising.

 I think that this is an interesting article because it is proven that global warming is bad for our planet, but it is good for one type of plant. And it could be hard to live with so much moss around us. So we need to be careful about global warming.
