Slice of life day 11

My dad woke me up at 7:50 , I don’t have a phone so right now I’m not responsible for waking up on time. I got up and stretched a bit, I didn’t actually get up till like 8 I went to the bathroom and washed my face- brushed my teeth- and let down my hair. I went back to my room, put on some music then started getting ready. I guess music always helps- it wakes me up and makes me feel good. Once I was done getting ready I went to the kitchen to grab something before I go, I grabbed apple sauce and an energy drink. Literally my favorite breakfast haha. After that my dad was yelling at me so I left and I was on my way to school with apple sauce and a spoon in my hand.

Slice of life day 10

I was so excited I thought we were going to get an early dismissal. But once I went into the hallway and tested out the water fountain, I knew we were going to be staying. I honestly don’t know what I would’ve done though. My friends and I wanted to hang out but either way my dad was home and he would’ve been expecting me.

Slice of life day 9

Yesterday my mom picked me up so I slept at her house. She lives in Chicago, so when I woke up this morning I was kind of tired I didn’t feel like going through traffic, once I got ready we left and we got on the highway. I hate being on the highway in the mornings, especially hearing the morning podcasts, for some reason I just really hate it, that doesn’t mean I don’t like mornings, I do I just don’t like this specific scene. Just the vibe isn’t to my taste.

Killer Whales (blackfish)

These whales are one of the smartest creatures in the world. They are very clever and can outsmart almost every creature. It’s too bad that this brilliant species is currently endangered. They would rarely attack a human and their main prey is pretty much any fish in sight. Orcas are found in all oceans around the world, but are most common in the Artic and Antartica. They are often spotted off the west coast of the U.S and Canada.

The movie was very convincing I must say though, when I watched the second video my mind and perspective on the movie immediately changed because I think the movie was to draw attention and cause trouble. The man in the second video talks about the story behind the scenes. He talks about how they purposely try to make you think of the worst.

I would rate the movie 2 out of 5 stars.

It was convincing but false.

2019 Word

My 2019 word is “glow-up”

        This is my word because I really want to get in better condition this year. Meaning, losing weight, growing out my hair, fixing my nails, eating healthier, and etc.

       Of course when it comes to tiring to lose weight- I already got two checked off the list. I have to start eating healthier to lose weight. I’m thinking salads-smoothies- fruits- and vegetables. Which is good because I want to get a new wardrobe too- so maybe if I had a slimmer body I could look better in some new clothes. I’m actually pretty excited for that.

       When I say I want to grow out my hair, I mean like fix it up. Right now it’s a little all over the place-overgrown bangs- layers- bald spots ( because I flip my hair) and it’s just driving me crazy. So I’m going to try to grow it out and just overall make it look neater and healthier 😁.

       Next is my nails. I bite my nails. A lot. It comes to the point where I make them bleed. I try to have nice nails but no matter what I do, I always end up biting them. Therefore- this year I don’t want disgusting, bitten down nails so I’m going to try to grow them out- get rid of my nail biting habit, and go to the salon to get them done☺️

        I know I mentioned getting a new wardrobe. That’s probably the most exciting part😇. I wanted to go to the mall and shop on my own or with friends but now north riverside has just recently added a new rule saying any person under the age of 17 must be accompanied by an adult and if I bring my parents or whatever then I’m most likely not found to get clothes I like😬. So, instead I just decided to start shopping by my moms because she lives close to Block 37 and The Roosevelt Collection.

So that’s my word for the year and why! I’m trying to become a better me🤗

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 🎃

“Middle School The Worst Years of My Life”

This book was alright. I have to admit there was some times where the book was slightly suspenseful but it’s not really a huge trill. Even the ending was kind of lame, no offense I just wish something bigger happened. I get it, it’s 6th grade how big can things get? Whatever, I guess what I’m trying to say is that it’s not an awesome book, but it’s not an bad book.

Not something I would read. It was pretty cringy. Like, what’s happening in the book happened to 6th grade kids in the 80’s.

Boring book.
