Westons movie night!!!!!!!!

My friend Weston threw a movie party potluck thingy. The movie we watched was 12th night. So we got there and chatted until everyone showed up. Then we tried to play volleyball.......( not a success)! After our volleyball experience we went inside to eat! When we finished eating we played a few boardgames & then watched the movie!:D

SCUBA!!!!!!!!

For the past five weeks I have been taking a SCUBA class from Bob's dive shop! I has been amazing! I have had tons of fun! The class is easy to follow and learn from. First we read a chapter in the textbook. Then we go to the class and discuss the material, and finally we practice in the pool. I highly recommend taking SCUBA, it's lots of fun!

A Simple Biosphere

Supplies

  • A large jar with a lid ( make sure the lid fits tightly)
  • A small plant that can fit inside jar with some room to spare
  • An area in your house that gets lots of sun-light
  • Water
  • Masking tape or a marker

Since plants produce their own food they need not get it from an outside source. Under the right conditions, a plant is self sustaining.

A. Water the plant so the soil is moist
B. Put the potted plant into the jar, so that the plant is enclosed.
C. Mark the height of the plant on the side of your jar. Use the masking tape or a marker.
D. Put it in the sun. Check on its progress from time to time. You can keep it as long as you want
E. DO NOT WATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Drama!!!!!!!!!!!!!


For the past 6 months I've been part of a drama class. I had lots of fun! Drama is just like any of the arts. It takes lots of practice to pull off a performance. In the class we did everything from mimes to a six person spoken skit! For our last performance we met at northpark community church at 1:00 and practiced untill 6:30. Then we finnaly could perform our long practiced skits!
Everyone loved our skits! All our practice paid off! I highly reccommend taking a drama class. It builds cordination and concentration, and it's lots of fun! :D

Do Hard Things!!!!!!!!!

This is an amazing book! My family read it as a morning devotional. We really liked it! It challenges teens to "rebel" against low expectations. In America we have very low expectations of teens. If a teen does something even "above average" we freak out and call him/her exceptional! What does " exceptional" mean if we use it so easily? We as a country need to raise our expectations! When we do we will see amazing results!!!!! :D

Everyone should own a dog!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I say this because I love my two dogs & I know you would too! Dogs are protectors, they guard you. Such as my old dog Larry who watched over my brother & I when we were little! He would never leave our side either. Which brings me to my next point. Dogs are loyal; they will always be on your side! Another reason you should own a dog is is because they're funny! Both Eddie my Dalmatian, and Leroy my chocolate lab have they're own personality. They have made me cry from laughing so hard! They may be messy ,or destroy things, but you'll forgive them!!!!!!!!!!!

mission fest pref.


I have been practicing a lot. My drumming teacher had me go into Fresno 2 times one week, and three the next!!! Plus the normal practices! It was all for a pref. that the "Bembe worship project"
did for northwest church's "mission fest"! In Bembe we try to take current songs and mix them with traditional African and, Cuban rhythms! For the mission fest pref. we did several well known songs. It was a fun performance, we got to worship God in a way not many people can! By mixing traditional with the new! It was a blast!!!!!! :D

The Tech Museum

This year for Easter my family & I went to San Jose & visited several museums. One of the museums we went to was the Tech museum. When my parents told me we were going to Tech I was nervous. I thought that it would be row after row of computer parts. I was mistaken. It was one of the coolest museums I've ever been to!
It was very interactive,and fun! It had robots and games that explained in a fun way all the technology stuff. IT had a sound room, an Internet room, a earthquake room,& a astronaut simulation machine!It was a great museum and I highly recommend it! :D
