GREEK DAY

    Last week Thursday (depending on which day you have social studies)there was a fun event during social studies, Greek Day. We got to participate in Greek activities and try an assortment of Greek foods. Students were separated by city-states. For example, you could’ve either been in Thebes, Troy, Sparta, Athens, and more. For the first hour or so you trade your items that you made in the “Agora”. Similar to a market. Different city states would be able to trade/ sell handmade items for tickets. After that, you would participate in the Olympics. Discus, dash, chariot ride, and more were the games held. After all of that we had all worked up an appetite, so we came inside to our classrooms and ate Greek food while watching Hercules.

SLICE OF LIFE

  My slice of life. There's not a lot of my life to write about, because... I live a kinda boring life. Just being honest. But yesterday, I did something. So I was at my grandparents house. And, I had a lot of homework. But, I was with my whole family. That's very rare. Either my sister is working, or my dad can't make it. Whatever the case is, we're not all together. But yesterday, we were. Oddly enough. So, I was trying to do my homework, and block out the noise that I was hearing. But let me tell ya, that's very hard. So instead of trying to block it out, and distract myself. I just didn't do my homework at that moment yesterday. Instead, I ran into the kitchen to try and eat something. I ended up not even eating a full meal. I ate jello. But hey, at least I didn't starve. I really don't know what the point of this blog is, as I've mentioned before. I HAVE to do this.

BEST FOOD EVER!

  The best food ever... hmmmm... I don't really have an opinion in a favorite food. Unless we're talking about best restaurant, then its Olive Garden! So then I guess I do have a favorite food, fettuccine alfredo. But I obviously don't eat it everyday. A casual favorite food at home is spaghetti, yummm. But, NO MEATBALLS! Dang it, now I'm hungry. I don't know why I like spaghetti, but it's so delicious. The only one than can make bomb spaghetti is my grandma. Sorry mom.

HAPPIEST MOMENT

  My happiest moment was when I went to tour my sisters’ school, Saint Xavier. It was so fun! It was more like a party, than a school.  We wrote on her cool,  white board,  classroom. But, we chose a bad day to go. Weather wise anyway. It was pouring rain all day. But, it was teachers institute for her. So we didn’t have to wait for her classes to end. Luckily, she had a Starbucks on campus. So, we got nice, warm, hot chocolate. Anyhoo, long story short, we had a nice, long, fun day!
