Chicago History Project

I chose Walt Disney- as he was born in Chicago.

I find him so.. interesting. The first version of Mickey was just so unique and something definitely eye-catching. But behind all those animations, there was a man. With a life. And with a story.

This One Fantasy...

11/7/18

                So I guess living in Chicago; especially downtown, for 7 years has got you thinking about the countryside like a beautiful wonderland. Which is the absolute truth, me. particularly. Has got me thinking about the countryside like a fantasy.
               Everything about it just seems so great. The trees, the leaves flowing through the wind. The beautiful sunsets and sunrises..don’t even get me started on the starry night skies. Wow... I can just imagine walking through the grassy fields towards the sunset, with my dog right on my side. Then just falling back and forgetting about all my worries.
               Living in a small cozy cabin, toast and tea.. what’s there not to like?

              Then when I moved here to Berwyn, I got this huge obsession with starry night skies and I started painting them. Once I realized the best places to find those starry night skies in person, my obsession only grew bigger..Alaska.
              “ Alaska..,” I say. Where the air is pure, the trees are tall, the snow so.. white. Walking through the mountains so much to explore. If I think about it too much, I drop down and start to cry like my world and life is either complete, or just beginning..

I don’t really know... those are two of my huge fantasies I’ve been holding onto for while, but trust me, I have so many more.

Halloweeennnn BOO 👻

         Right after school, I went to my best friends’ Jasmins house. So there, we figured out our plans for that night. We decided that I was going to go home and get ready and she would stay at her house and do the same. She FaceTimed me and we got ready together on the phone.
         Then she came to my house and I did her makeup. My mom showed up I caused a scene, she left then Jasmin and I left for trick or treating. We went from house to house asking from candy, along the way, laughing, talking, and smiling together.
        At one point my phone died and I know how mad my dad would be if he had called me and I didn’t answer because my phone was dead. So I charged my phone and Jasmin and I touched up our costume. My dads girlfriend came to my house and bought me some false eyelashes and glitter hair spray.
        Jasmin and I went back outside to trick or treat some more. At our last house of the night, there’s was an elderly woman at the door giving us candy, and all of a sudden a man was coming up the porch stairs with a creepy mask and me, Jasmin AND the elderly lady got scared. Jasmin and I started backing up on the porch it was until the lady started closing the door, I pushed it open in fear haha. Jasmin and I ran off the porch and the man went inside the woman’s house. Jasmin and I kept running and running until we got to her house; it was really funny😂. We actually never knew what happened after we left so I mean I don’t even know.
      Jasmin, me, and her mom ate candy and watched a movie at her house which was fun, but eventually it got late and I had to leave, so I did. Actually, my dad picked me up, lol. I was scared it was dark outside😂. Then my dad, his girlfriend, and I got pizza. Went home. Ate it. Then went to sleep.      
       

  • The End.
  •                                                            Happy Halloween 🎃
