   My favorite song at the moment is “Nice for What” by Drake. I heard it while I was with my sister on our way to the movies. I like how smooth it sounds, but yet so uplifting. I’m not sure why, but the song just makes me feel like I’m in summer.

   I don’t really have a favorite poem. I don’t like poems. But just for this grade, I’ll choose one. And it is, “Sweetheart, Marry Your goals, remain committed to success, be loyal to your dreams, choose to be yourself.” I like it because it’s implying to choose happeness.

    My project is on John Wayne Gacy. He was a serial killer and rapist that murdered 33 young men and boys. Most of them were buried in his home under the crawl space. He was born on March 17, 1942. Died on May 10, 1994. He struggled with his sexuality and being abused as a kid. He was sometimes referred to as the “Model Citzen” in town. He lived in Chicago, IL. He dressed up as his alter ego, Pogo the Clown for parties. On December 21, 1978 he was arrested and found guilty in 1980. Yet he started killing in 1972.

    For 4th quarter I wish to participate more. It’s been a goal of mine every quarter and I’ve slowly been improving. I’d like to work a lot more on participating in classes because I feel like I haven’t been working as hard as I could. Not only do I want to participate more, I want to improve in math. Math has always been my weakest subject and I believe that’s because I haven’t really been paying attention. It just seems to last forever. 

    Over spring break I did something that was expected. I celebrated my older sisters’ 19th Birthday. On Friday we went out to dinner. All three siblings came including me, parents came and paid, my aunt and uncle came as well, and lastly my sisters boyfriend came too. The weekend was pretty calm including Easter. My mom worked while my dad, brothers and I hung around the house until she got back. We didn’t really celebrate this year. On Monday night I slept over a friends house. Many funny moments happened and they were all caught on camera! The rest of the week I went back and forth to my grandparents’ house. The final two days of spring break hit and I didn’t do anything. Oh but wait, I did do something! On Saturday my friend and her cousin came over. Sunday hit and I tried to get everything together for today, school. 

  Over spring break I am going to celebrate. A lot. On the first day of spring break (March 30) I’m going to celebrate my older sisters’birthday! The six of us going out to dinner. Reservations have already been made. My parents are trying their hardest to come through with her wishes. So far, things are looking good. But of course other than my sister’s birthday, possibly my whole family is going to celebrate Easter! Where it’s going to happen still remains a mystery. My family doesn’t even know if all of us will be available to celebrate. My mom might be working that day. On the bright side, we’ll get free food! Anyhoo, that’s all I know for now and times up anyway. 

  If you didn’t know, there was an ELA “Go for the Gold Challenge”. Containing multiple skills and lessons you needed to do. Including a couple articles that needed to be read. Of course it’s not a challlenge without a deadline. We had two weeks to read four Newsela text sets and complete 16 IXL’s. You would land in one stage of the challenge depending on what you’ve done. For example, there would be silver, bronze and gold. If you made it to gold, congrats! Each student that met the gold stage got a chance to go into an incentive room- which happened last week Friday. As well as you got 80 falcon dollars, and a morning where you’d get to switch excels. Fortunately, I got to go into the incentive room! Whoop whoop. Anyhoo, that’s the end of my blog. :)
