People running into my bedroom without knocking.

Wacky Web Tale

A Crazy Night at the Library

One night something really funny happened at the library. The characters in the stories started jumping from their books!

Molly climbed into Charlotte's Web and started dancing with Wilbur the Pig! Sammie wandered into an encyclopedia and ended up lost in New Cross!

The craziest part was when Roland wandered into All American Girl and said, “Cookie, I don't think we're in Kentucky any more.”

Then Ms. Libson walked in and said, “Wow! Everybody back in place!”

The characters hugged around the room. Just in time! The students in grade 9 came in to get books for their reports, but it was safe. All the characters were back in the books where they belonged.

Weekend Post

Hello, this weekend I went to Red Lobster after I picked up my sister who is home this weekend for her spring break. On Saturday, we stayed home to watch tv and talked for hours. Finally, on Sunday I visited some family friends visiting from England. I hadn't seen them since I was a toddler so it was good catching up.

Martin Luther King: The Other America

Martin Luther King jr. talks in his speech "The Other America"about Racism in America. He describes two Americas, the white America and the Black America. Though he wasn't as direct, he still talked about the actions of people in both America's. Racism in the U.S.A can be seen as Whites not wanting to be served in the same areas as Blacks, or whites not getting paid more than Black co-workers. America's problems are different to the ones they had in 1967 because America is less racist than it was before. With a Black President elected, America has also become less prejudice.

Weekend Post: News & Media (Weather)

This weekend it snowed a lot. We had the day off on Friday and so I slept late and played video games and watched tv. I also went shopping on Saturday. Hopefully it will snow a little bit more so we can get days off but not too much because our vacation could be cut short :-(

Flavanols

"While flavanols are naturally abundant in cocoa, unless you are specifically measuring and carefully handling a product throughout the manufacturing process, there is just no guarantee the product contains meaningful levels of the flavanols," said Mary Wagner, General Manager at Mars Botanical, a scientific unit of Mars, Incorporated dedicated to flavanol research and product development, and which recently launched CirkuHealth™ in the United States, a cocoa extract based dietary supplement.This quote is from the Chocolate Industry. This company makes Chocolate or Cocoa that sells throughout the U.S.

Weekend Post (Popular Culture)

This weekend is sadly my last weekend of my vacation. I had a lot of fun this past week especially Thursday. On Thursday, I went to the movies with my friend and we saw the movie Valentine's Day. It was really good and I would see it again., I'd also recommend for people who like comedy to see it. Here is a link to the reviews: NY Times Review. BTW in my last post I mentioned the olympics.I still haven't watched the 2010 Winter Olympics. As far I know, sadly G.B has only won 1 gold medal but I know they will catch up. Luckily, America is in the lead with 7 GOLD MEDALS , GO TEAM U.S.A !!!

Weekend Post

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY !!! Today is one of the most romantic days of the year so take the time now to spend with your significant other. This weekend was fun and right now I am eating all my favorite chocolate just like we should all be doing. Also the winter olympics is coming on and is surrounded by many people getting involved to support their country. Go United Kingdom, Trinidad, Grenada and U.S. !

Weekend Post

This weekend I didn't do much. It snowed a little bit in NY so I stayed in to watch it. I didn't have any homework so I went to Kings Plaza Mall to get clothes.It was fun and I also watched the SuperBowl. GO SAINTS !!!!!!!!!!! My topic is education. Many people traveled to Florida to get to the Superbowl and support their teams. Instead of worrying about their lives they were watching football. People especially young boys have decided they want to become football players and quit school. This is a bad decision because education is important and helps determine your career based on your advancement level. I think more football players should come to schools and educate people about education and smart choices.

Podacast on Issue in Pennsylvania

A Taser is an electroshock weapon that uses electrical current to disrupt voluntary control of muscles.

My Opinion: I think the police took it too far when they brought the dogs in to chase after him. They should've had better security because things have happened before at basketball games especially between rival schools. Tasering him was also unnecessary.

Further Info can be found on Fox News and Pittsburgh News.

Regents Week

This week was regents week. It was for a few advanced freshman and sophomores, juniors and seniors in High School. This past week I slept late and went shopping a few times. I went to the movies and saw Avatar, the highest rated movie ever. It was good and in 3-D which made it better. I think I want to go the movies at the end of the week again.

Long Weekend

Today is Martin Luther King Day. Dr. King was one of the world's most well known legendary figures. He was a hero to many and helped African-Americans to become desegregated,. If it wasn't for him, Rosa Parks and the Civil Rights Movement, we would still be sitting at the back of buses and see inferior to white people. This weekend, I goofed off and did homework. I have a cold sadly so I had to stock up on Tylenol, Vicks, Inhaler, Halls, Orange Juice and Vitamin C at the store. Hopefully, it will go away soon
