The poem that makes no sense

It is poem day.
so anything that rhymes may.
pay, lay, tray, lei
all go no need, hey.

??? I don't get it
Are you sure, not one bit?
Yes, I know that little bit.
Okay, where do you not get it.

The whole thing, just rhymes, it doesn't make sense.
What??? That makes you dense.
Why, you currently don't make any "cents"
So why should I care what happened is already past tense.

Now you are speaking right
Well duh, but it ain't black and white
No slang you say shall be right
How do you still remember? hang on tight!!!

What?
QUIET! CASHEW NUT!
But ...  but ...
Quiet, or this won't ever be cut

Cut what?
Cut short nut.
It can't go forever, "but"
Yes it can, "nut" who said "but"

No it can't, "but" who said "'nut' who said 'but'"
I can do that too, "nut"
Sure I can too, "but"
Yes it can "nut" who said ""but" who said "nut" who said "but""

See, I'm right, forever it cannot go on.
Yeah, you're right it will not go on.

How [not] to please my mom

It is always easier to skip the title. I think it will make things 10000% easier. When you can forget that you have topic constraints, you can pretty much write anything your imagination takes you. Today I plan to talk about my approach.

When I write my blog, I never can get my mom to like it. I think I am just typing random things, and trying to be funny. However, I think if I be a little more serious and do some planning, things could be a lot easier, well no, I could just please my mom more often.  I just finished my topic, normally I would try to save my self by switching topics, and rambling on and on. However, today, I will spend time thinking about it more. Oh, yeah, that is another thing, I have a list on how I write bad blogs:

1. I just want to get it done, without thinking about how good it is
2. I start my topic, I don't have anything to write, or it is too short
3. I switch and think if I be funny everything will be all write to write.
4. I fail, badly.

Well, that is how not to make my mom happy.

THAT IS IT, I HATE TITLES! I AM NOT DOING A TITLE TODAY! I hate titles, I wish I could just write a poem. What? Oh, yeah, I should right a poem, I mean rite a poem, I mean ...

There was a cat
It had a hat,
it ran from the mat
and said hi to a rat.

The rat ran away
The cat cried astray
A horse came and went neigh
and asked the cat to catch its prey

the cat said no
the horse then did a throw
the cat was not very slow
the rat needed to go

but the cat ruined its day
the cat had a horrible May
the horse ruined his day
and the happy horse said, "neigh!"

Catch on

I have nothing to write about. I do have an idea, but it is too short for it to turn this into a "quality post." My mom says she reads my blog every single day. I feel like, no matter what I write, it will be really bad. I remind myself that I have pleased her since she started making me write "quality posts", once. I try to copy what I did, but I never get it right.

Oh, by the way, did you notice how my titles are weird lately, it is because with no topic, my title is related to the topic of the intro.

Anyway, back to my original topic. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't have anything else to write on it! Yep, I can't do this without writing a story or a poem

Busy day

Is today a very busy day? I think so, so far I have not been required to do much. Eventually though, I know the stuff will build up. Right now, I don't want to do anything, I want to wait. I really want to do the fun stuff first. Today, I have to do piano, and really almost nothing else. Yet, because I'm wasting time, it feels like I have a whole lot to do. I'm also under pressure to finish things before my dad comes home.

Another problem, WHAT WILL MY TOPIC BE TODAY, I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING!!! Actually, my main problem is I can't think of a good topic. I mean, I can write about little mouses or something. Hmm, maybe this idea will impress her...

So I remember my first post, 9 cats. I will talk about mouses today! Not real mouses, ... duh, but the ones in my story. These mouses were very smart. They outsmarted the cats. Now when I look back it, I think it is very funny. I want to write another story, soon, maybe in 5 days, no make that 7 years... 

My goal of 20

   This month my mom challenged me to write 20, I waited to long, I may have to write 2-3 posts each day to reach that goal. It will be hard, but I think I have to. So, I will write 20 blogs, if possible. This is my second blog of the day, but I have no topic. So I will think hard, and waste time, until I finally have an idea.

20 posts is actually very hard, I have about 6 days left. WHY DID I WRITE THAT??? I STILL HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO WRITE, and this blog is getting weirder, and less "quality" Oh, maybe I should quit before it gets worse.

7 in March

My mom just commented how I only wrote 7 blogs in March, so what, Now I have EIGHT!! Yes, mommy, I'll make sure you know I wrote more than seven in march.

Today is the first day of my Spring Break! Next week, I have no school, today I also don't have to go to Chinese School, and not next week either. So, I have high hopes this spring break, normally we go on a failed vacation, I want this time to be perfect! This is the start, I hope today will be a good day. So hard ... I feel like I don't have a lot of time.

Off track

   I haven't written very many blogs recently, but mostly because I didn't finish them, and after the day I wrote it, most of the information is outdated, this blog may not actually be published, but I will try. There are many reasons this situation can happen, one reason, is I get distracted, and don't finish, other times I can't, and I don't want to make it up, I am also under the pressure of my mom looking at it, and it is bad, I wrote this for one reason, to clear up, I will write some more.

30 minute warning

   Sound familiar? Well, yes, today I have to write this in thirty minutes. I did that in my post about hiking called "hikeing", but whatever, basically, I have to write it in thirty minutes. Of course, it is possible, but after many complaints from my mom that my blogs are too "messy and simple", that may not be as easy as it normally is for me, added to the fact I want to do other things after finishing.

   Speaking of challenges, my mom has a challenge for us. My sisters and I have to be as good as we can be, the best behaved child at the end of the week gets to eat at a restaurant - and only them. This makes us pretty motivated to do things. Oh great, now I don't know what to write anymore, I don't even know what my topic is! Oh well, I guess I will just do challenges, but I don't have any other challenges to write about! Well, except the no-stopping-for-more than-5-seconds-to-stop-and-think-challenge, but if I have no topic to write about then that will be almost useless to write about! I'll just brainstorm some challenges real quick.

  Still nothing ...
Nothing
Nothing
Oh, I got one, I will use this in the future too, "type a thing that is not a poem that my mom will still like."

Restart ... please wait

    Sorry, before I may write more you must wait about 9 minutes. 9 minutes later, I'm sorry I miscalculated, that will be about 20 more minutes. 20 minutes later, that will be an extra three minutes. 3 minutes later, READY! me, "WHATEVER!!! YOU TOOK SO LONG, NOW I DON'T EVEN WANT IT ANY MORE!!!"   Anyway, today I had major delays, this took so long to finish loading, and then I had some more problems, and arguments, and yeah, it is true, I barely want to write anything right now anyway, SO FRUSTRATING.

    Now I have to think of something to write, no, it should be something stupid, so when I look back at this post, I would know I had a bad day, never mind, that has been taken care of. So while I'm typing this, I my mom is sitting next to me on her phone. I'm so sleepy, daylight saving time is sooo annoying. Ugh, now I have to sleep one hour earlier than usual, I'm already wayyyyyyy past my new bedtime of ... 9:00 P.M. Whatever, you must wait again, just kidding, I don't know how to end this, I want to got to sleep already!!! Wait, I know, goodbye. Nah, that is to simple, wait I mean too simpel, wait I mean .... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ... zzz

Write a poem

As many people can see,
and all will glee,
this is not a poem,
because I broke the rhyme.

What rhymes with poem?
I'm not sure.
I can check on rhyme.com
but I checked that before, and all work as much as "bomb"

So this isn't a poem
but I'll try my best
I'll type it up
and I hope I will finish this up.

hikeing

Don't bother with the title. I have to write this in half an hour or less.  So, I will try my type without stopping method to easily write long blog posts. I cannot stop to rest my fingers for more than three seconds and I will (read: try) to not keep myself in the challenge by thinking while I constantly type something than backspace it and repeat it just so I can think while being "productive". So yeah, I shall begin about my hiking trip today.

This is my second intro, 'cause I didn't want to put this in my first. I know, I have like 9 posts called "Hiking.", but this one is different, A: I have an intro (well two) B: I misspelled the title, and C: I didn't capitalize the first letter. Hooray! I wrote all this in four minutes, compared to sometimes I type one sentence in thirty minutes. Now on with the main post.

So today I went "hikeing" with my mom. I wanted challenge us so we decided to take a longer route than usual. Along the way, we talked about somethings, like my grades. This is different than many long hiking trips I take. (long meaning more than an hour; most of the time with a couple friends.) We always have to stop to take pictures, not this time, we sped right through. My mom talked about a novel she was planning to write. We turned back at 10:00. The way back was a lot quieter. I promised to do things. Then we went home.

Wow. The intros were longer than my post, oh well, bye.

Finally

Today I got my first paid game! I used a gift card I earned from an auction. Anyway, I wanted this game for a long time. I'm happy I actually got it, I was worried about taxes and all that. So yeah, (my new favorite words), I'm pretty happy today.

Now I want to talk about my blog. Sometimes I like it, other times, I think it is a waste of time. I mainly like it, because I can post my opinions for other people to see (I just loved attacking Common Core), so anytime I want to give my viewpoint on an opinion, I hop right in and write my blog post about it. I also know I haven't done a lot of other types recently (all journals with an intro), so maybe I'll go for a story sometime. I discovered (When I was labeling this post), that I have had over 20 labels! I will try something new next time, you'll see.

Follow through

   Yeah, yeah, today I'm typing random stuff. I don't have much to write. I will keep on typing like I always do to find something interesting, but I CAN'T , there is nothing!!! Well, eventually I will find something, it will take a long time, no just kidding, it might take a long time. So yeah, I don't know what to write, so I'll follow through with the intro until I have an idea. I also don't feel like stopping to think about it, because the more I wait, the more tense and bored I'll get. Maybe I'll talk about my eating habits.

     I always forget things my parents tell me the day before, well, not forget but not following the advice, "You have a spoon, so use it." or "Remember to put the bowl in the dishwasher." Also, I very picky, I don't eat anything that I don't recognize, and I definitely do NOT eat certain vegetables. I like dessert and fried foods. Yummy! So I'll just follow through, maybe someone will comment about my eating habits. I don't care about posting them, I'm proud of them (up to a certain level), bye!

Be Discreet

Hi, I wanted to talk about being sneaky. are you sneaky? When you try not to be sneaky you aren't as sneaky, strange, right? A lot of other things affect your sneakiness. One of the sadder ones, is that the longer you be sneaky without being caught, the more likely you are to get caught.

I have just decided that is the intro, even though the title says otherwise, because ... reasons. I'm not going to tell you them. I just think that I don't have much to write about about the above topic. So yeah, I should do this more often. Anyway, now I don't have much to write here, OH NO! Well, this always happens, I'll just have to deal with it. Maybe I'll talk about math. I have an entire math book in my room. I just don't know. I have to do it a lot. I don't though. (You know what is coming next) Oh well, bye.

Back on track

Horrible, just HORRIBLE. I probably haven't written in a week :C. I'm so sorry, well, I was just too busy, just kidding, it will be a lot more busier next week, or next year. The title is just a lazy title, sorry. Also, I don't have a body idea, just an intro idea, maybe I should just call my intro my main post. This is all about getting my posts back on track, which happens (recently) every two weeks, that is just sad.

Anyway, (Yay I do have a main post), actually ... I can't think of much, I just had an average day, a nice day at the park and an afternoon shopping.

Forgetment

    By now, you know what I'm going to put in my intro, if I have a title, talk about how I found a topic before I started, otherwise, just say something random, after the intro, put an "Anyway, ..." and start the main body of the post. Basically I just wanted to say that yes, I have a title and a topic already thought out for today.

    At first I wanted to talk about how weird my computer is, I also thought about what to put in my intro, but in my haste, I forgot my original topic about how weird my computer is, and decided to talk about forgetting topics, for some reason, I was too in a hurry, I accidentally typed "forgetment", I always type weird words when I'm in a rush. Basically, this blog is about how easily "forgetment" actually is. So, most of the time, when you move a short distance, and while moving think about other things, you're more liable to forget.

lalalala lala

   Today, I had a successful "have title already known before starting to write" situation. The weird thing is, I wasn't even thinking about my blog post before I started. I just got really lucky.

   Anyway, I wanted to talk about how when you write a tune, you think that they know the tune, but once you stop and take a look at the situation, well, you probably know what I mean (fun fact, the title is the first part of a song that goes: "lalalala lala", oops I did it again). Well, it is the main song in Annie or something. I try to use spaces and whatnot to group together certain phrases that go together, in the lyrics, a space means a comma or a breath mark(Is there such thing in vocal music? I just said it, because it is a thing in wind instruments). So I wonder how many of these things you can actually get.

• nananananananana nananananana nanananana (It is some type of Holiday song, I think)
• hmhmhmhm hmhmhmhm lalala lalala nananananana nananananana hm hm hm hm hm hm ( Chinese or French song, I don't know which)
• taka taka ta ta (I made this up, the answer will surprise you)

Number one is a holiday song, I don't know the name.
Number two has two names, and I don't want to say both it would be embarassing
Number three is a rythmn saying, It has no tune, it is supposed to simply "keep the beat."

Reactions, reactions

   Today, I will continue yesterday's contest, only with a new topic: comments, ready, set, GO!

   I wonder what the reactions were to Yesterday's post, like I write posts while wondering the reactions, I go back and change certain things if I don't like the reactions. So, I never check comments, so I wonder what the comments were, I noticed people don't really comment much, oh well, I wonder the reaction to this one. btw: I know this is almost five lines long, so yay, I'm almost done, now I am. Whatever, I think I should continue, so I have nothing more to write about, so I declare the on-topic part of the contest over.

   So now, I'm thinking about the thinking process for a post, so first, if I can think of a title, and a topic before I need to write, then I will have a title. The rest, just comes to mind, and if I have enough on my mind, the contest is really easy actually.


BYE!

    And again, a no title post, I just did this because it will be much easier if I forget the title/ideas and get right to writing the post. So as you know, I always start with an intro. Also, since I still can't think of anything to write, I will just keep typing my intro until I can think of useful content that will count as an adequate post. Right now I'll talk about some of my blogging habits. One of the most common ones is to say a post is adequate if it is more than five lines long, so now technically I can call it a night and publish right now. However, I want to do more and will keep going to write some random stuff till I get there.

    I thought of what I want to write! I'll write about something weird. The goal for me is to not stop typing for more than 5 seconds but still keep writing and stay on topic. Also, I'm not aloud to type placeholders, meaning I can't erase anything except for typos(and not some weird string of letters while I'm thinking of a topic), but look, see I find this also amusing, I could be typing this over the course of many days and you wouldn't even know, hahahaha! I'm so good at this! Anyway, so basically my topic will simply be this writing contest with hardly any stops to rest, and right now I'll begin: So, I like this contest, I think writing about it is cool, is this appropriate as a blog post? Maybe, because the point is to practice writing, but right now I think I'm doing more typing than writing practice. However, I think this is too long. I want to stop now. OH NO! I forgot to say how long this will go on. Whatever, I'll just stop it now.

   SUCCESS I MANAGED TO DO IT!

The proper post

   Hello this is my proper post of the day, meaning it has my complete structure of a post. Aka, it has an intro. Just to be clear, this is my second post of the day too. However, this is the proper one. Since it is proper it is the best post ever! Well no, actually, it would be the one that makes my mom happy the most. Since, she wants me to write every day!

   Anyway, I want to talk about etiquette, STUPID THING, I can't even spell it properly. Who cares! It is just, etiquette, "This is the right way to do things, or else your not proper" See, that's why I hate it. I just hate things telling me what to do, and this is the example. So, I brought this up because I used the word "proper" in the title.

Long term wait

I like waiting for long term projects. It's just because I wish to do other things. I want to play and barely get regular homework done at times, or I use my free time on playing around. Well, I have a project due Friday, and I don't think I've even done half of it yet. So, I love waiting around. Even when something is due the next day I like to wait until 4 until actually starting. So, naturally I don't really like long term projects. I wait for it, because in the beginning you won't think it is as important. So in the future, your future self thinks, grr I HATE YOU PAST SELF!

    No title again, oh well, even if I do think of it later, I want the readers to be happy! So I don't have a title today. END OF INTRO.

    Okay, I have absolutely nothing to write about. So let's talk about intro's. I use it a lot, because it adds some excitement to my blog. So, I love them. I want to continue it for like 20 paragraphs. Anyway, (Any way is my keyword for "End of Intro"), wait NOOOO, this is still the intro. I should'v e know I couldn't resist continuing. Whatever, so I still have nothing to write about. Maybe, I should just count this. Oh well, bye.

Topic

   Topic is already decided, the topic is ... My day at Barnes & Nobles, my mother suggested it to me.

   So, I like going to that Barnes & Nobles on Sunday or any day I have a whole day of free time, and I spend the whole day there, paradise! Today I did it again. I've done it four times. Most of the time, I can get in a full day, and eat lunch at the shopping center. I got to read so many books. I love it! The library doesn't have every book I want at the exact time I want it, but at Barnes & Nobles, almost every book is there. Anyway, today I went again, I didn't even stop to eat today! I had a really good time.

Itchy finger typing

     Yahoo! No intro today! Intro meaning the opening speech before the actual post, wait nooooooooooooo! This is an intro. DARN!

    My post title is called Itchy finger typing, because when I don't know what to write I just write things like "HELLO" or "HELLO KELLY" it just is a placeholder, I get rid of it later, but I thought it would be funny if I told you about it. Sometimes, I'm not even aware, I've done it so many times that it just comes naturally if I don't type anything for more than 6 seconds or so. Since I want to do something other than tell you about it, I'm going to continue my criticism of common core in math.

   The repeat thing is really big. DO THEY HAVE TO REVIEW PLACE VALUE AGAIN?! I mean seriously, come on! They really should look at last year's books, 'cause the standards are almost the same. Why don't they just get to the point with all the diagrams, models, and other random stuff? In real life, are you ever going to have a paper to draw a diagram? Do you really need to conceptually understand a skill, before learning the procedure. This makes lessons twice as long, one for procedure, one for conception. You get to less. Math books should definitely revolve around what teachers want to teach, if teachers go off the book to much, that is a sign the book is bad.

Laziness

Yay! Finally I figured out a title, before I wrote the content of the post!

Anyway, today I want to talk about how hard it is to write a blog post, most of the time I want to write a quick post, oh and, use a random topic, I also like to attract attention with funny openings before I get to the real post. And I'll always remember how I like to do something else while I'm writing my blog. (oh no! Now I revealed my secrets I can't use them anymore), just kidding I totally will keep doing this. Now I want to write something I wanted to do a long time ago:

Common Core-ugh, I hate it:
So, Common Core finally came around into Southern California two years ago back in September. I remember their advertising campaign: "With the worn down students, remembering the loads of criteria on the math agenda, we decided to fix one thing. We'll only put standards that are commonly used in day to day life."

Now I've seen the books I don't really like that. Well what did they change? Many things:
1. More word problems/problem solving
2. More explaining of how a problem was done
3. Loads more "visual representations"/ "conceptually understandings" as some call it.
4. Repeats, as in multiple skills in different books (Do you need to do "Basic Multiplication of Fractions" in Fifth Grade and "Multiplying Fractions" in Fourth) , and that's just the chapters. Some lessons teach almost the same thing, like once, they gave you one model in a lesson, and a different model in another lesson.

1. I'm okay with this
2. I HATE this
3. Is that commonly used in daily life. HYPOCRITES! (well fine they did get rid of telling time on an analog clock and counting money)
4. I don't like to do things over and over, you have a test, a homework sheet, and a million reviews, you don't need another lesson or even chapter to give you some more practice.

*All this was done without a single interruption of doing something else.

    Whatever, forget the title. That is all I'll say about the title today.

Now I have to do a thing in school known as the T.A.S fair. I like it, but I've to go into the millions of problems encountered of using a programming language.  First, I have to write, download something, test it, and then do a million other of confusing things, I hope this will be worth it, if not then, well, I'll get so mad!! Anyway, I might win, there are only eight projects and two will win, maybe I can, I never win these fair type things, but in this category maybe I can!

Omit the title, that is what I always do, by the way, it is funny how blogger works. If you don't give your post a title the content of the post is the title. So right now, you might be thinking, "ah Omit the title, what a nice title", so funny right. Oh wait, I could be wrong, oh well, I'm just saying, I like to Omit titles and put them in later, just for fun I won't put it in now, so earlier readers can still find the first part funny, if I'm right of course. Then again it might say "[untitled post]", anyway, for now I'm just going to tell you that the title would be... actually, I don't know.

Time

Time passes really slow, really really slow, especially when you aren't having fun or , wait ... I think that is a myth. Oh whatever, let me explain.

Yeah it is partly true, especially if you want something to be over, then time passes even slower. However, the exact circumstances of how time is involved in your situation is important. If, you are waiting for the bell to ring in five minutes it can be pretty slow, but not at the maximum amount of slowness. If you are already waiting for the bell to ring in 30 minutes or above, you will feel the need to do something and the next 25 or so minutes can be pretty fast. When you don't have time to bail you out, things can be much, much faster. Like when doing homework. When you are doing something that you can't get out of early, like music practice, you feel it drags on even more if you look at a digital clock and think "IT HAS BEEN 5 SECONDS, how come that DUMBO clock hasn't changed yet." Anyway if you wan't things to feel quicker, then if it is an assignment, that if you finish early you can do fun stuff, finish it! If you just have to stay longer than, you're in trouble, do your best.

Musical education

One thing I stress a lot about is music. Sometimes I ignore the fact that I need to practice, other times I don't take practice seriously.  I don't like practicing, I want to do a million other things. With the piano I mainly: on bad weeks: play to get a reward, play to prevent being shouted at, or procrastinate until my mom doesn't care if I play or not. On good weeks: I play for an "longer" period  of time, else I also just play for reward(I don't miss a single day of practice on these weeks, well no, only one or two, wait or three). With the flute it is way worse. On good weeks I "practice" (which is really just halfheartedly playing while thinking about something else) three times a week. Other times, I don't play at all.

So, as you can see I don't care about music as much as regular homework. I'm lazy, but I want to get a good grade. It is hard, I hope I can do it. I have a quick comment "I don't think music is important" oh well, practice anyway.

Back to the routine

Today, well yesterday, my dad said that today we would go "back to the routine" meaning Winter Break is over and the regular routine is back. Today I'm going to mention my bumpy road back to the regular routine. Well, it started actually way earlier than that, last week in fact. Those days, I felt like nothing was happening and I wasn't being really productive or anything. On Monday, I wasn't too worried thinking I still had, the whole week and the weekend which is a surprisingly long time. On Tuesday, I still was pretty happy. On Wednesday however, the trouble finally started. I was starting to think it was Tuesday, but knew it was Wednesday. On Thursday, I couldn't believe how fast the week had passed. I spent the whole day at Barnes&Nobles for a change. I was happy until I realized the next day was FRIDAY. I was even more upset when my mom made plans for a last minute vacation that totally took up all my Friday and Saturday. On Sunday, I was finally over SLAMMED, I had this one assignment. I decided to take the day at Barnes&Nobles, but I knew I had to do the assignment so at 4 o'clock (I actually said 3, but I got an extra hour ;D) I started reading a new series, I was so hooked up, but I had to go home, the rest of the day made me feel really productive, doing all that. So, when I said my goodbyes to the break, I realized I had a good break.

Now, today, as I'm writing this, I'm happy to say that I had a great break.

hi let's play

today we are doing something interesting it is called no shifts. as in no holding down the shift KEY. that one didn't count it was just something i like to call CAPS LOCK. so i will try to write something without pressing the shift key even once. I will have to remember to USE the CAPS lOck or just risk the fatal grammar arror, he he hee. ANYWAY, WHY DO I ALWAYS SAY THAT11111111111111  by the way, i can't use the number lock because it is not on my computer. WELL WE'LL  have so much FUN, YAY111111111 here it GOes.

we shall start with math. what is 10610000/ 'teacher, teacher,' said one of the students, 'don't you mean 10 raised to the power of 10000/' 'yes, yes i mean that.' 'then why don't you write that1' asked a student. 'never mind that just tell me the answer,' 'okay, it is 1 followed by 10000 zeroes.'

very confusing huh? try turning any page in a book into 'no SHIFT language'

well, today i'll try writing a short summary of what i did today.

'today i went to the bookstore. i read one of my favorite books. then i reread another of my favorite books, after that i ate macaroni7cheese at a place called 'corner bakery' after that, i went to finish a book i was reading, when i wasn't done yet my mom picked me up so we had to go home. then i ate dinner'

okay, so what have we learned about this new language. the part about not capitalizing letters is okay, but the special characters are all converted into strange things.

BYE, I KNOW, YESTERDAY I LOST MY BET. ANYWAY, GOODBYE11111111111

Title fever

I have don't like doing titles I want to name them something short, I have posts called "Jokes" "More Jokes", "Jokes, Jokes Jokes" and so on. I don't like naming creative titles because they are too much work, I'd rather work on the body than the title.

Anyway, (WHY DO I ALWAYS HAVE TO SAY ANYWAY) anyway, Today I had one of the most tiring hiking trips ever, in the whole world. First of all, going up made me sleepy, not tired, but SLEEPY. Going down was worse, it made me feel tired and scared at the same time. Though, as in all hiking trips, at the end you feel really really good.

In the beginning it was really nice, except for the steep slope it felt good being out in the wind and getting the pleasure of hiking, after going down my problems started, I drank to much water and my stomach hurt, I was slowed down and started to feel tired. I eventually caught up again, but a new uphill slope slapped right in front of me created another huge barrier. Every break felt so good, sitting down made me feel like I never wanted to get up again. When I finally reached the end, a huge downhill grade made me feel scared, which systematically slowed me down, I was so slow I had the short cut just to keep me from falling behind too much. After that experience, I just wanted to go back to my bed and sleep forever. One last stroke of effort brought me down to the last downhill slope... and at the end I tripped. that feeling came again, I just wanted to sleep and never get up again. I did, my dad's encouraging words and the desire to go home and sleep (or play video games) brought me up what I thought was the final slope ... only to find another 0.3 miles to the parking lot. On the car, I felt proud of what I did. Thinking about it now, I know my dad helped me through the whole ride.

Books to read

Why do we read books? TO READ THE END, duh. Oh, sorry forgot about the bet again, oh well I can still bring it back, anyway, back to our discussion, Why do we read them well I think we read books because we are hooked, on the sequels we read to find something interesting that will surprise your head out, in my opinion the good stories make you read the whole thing, not just a few installments over and over again. Sometimes when you know the ending, when a character thinks something weird, you want to say, "No this will happen." because that is what happens.

I like to predict what will happen next because, when you are right you think you are so good at these things. Still, my parents like to drag me a lot saying things like, "If you like these books so much, why don't you write your own book." I can't do it, I don't even like my own books but I just LOVE reading them. BYE, by the way.

Yeah, I know I didn't follow the format but I just did with this closing. So now, I can finally say GOODBYE!! 

Secret Meadows

Once upon a time there was a Secret Meadow everyone in this world lived in it, from the smallest bug to the largest Giraffe. One day, some creatures decided to see the world above the tranquil place. At about the same time the meadow started to become less and less perfect. A rabbit named Hoppy was brave enough to come out and see the world around them. All she could see was the peaceful green grass and the occasional soft breeze that tickled her feet. Once she went out she couldn't see anything except barren yellow sugar. Or at least that was what she thought it was, one taste and she spit it right out. Traveling farther she noticed some smoke. What is that? she was thinking, what is this, and what happened here? She traveled all across the world and yet all she could see was yellow, it was so dry and hot, but it always rained just when she needed it. In the distance, she saw some strange creatures, one she never had seen before. They looked a lot like turtles only larger and older. She greeted them, "Hello, what are you doing out here?"

"We are staying here in this uncomfortable world, until our friends come back to get us." 

"Why?" 

"They are in space trying to bring water to our desert world." 

"Then come with me my meadow is paradise for all of you!!"

After that they went, but nothing changed, and soon the desert started coming in and overlapping into the meadow, and the creatures were forced to smaller and smaller areas. Finally, Hoppy lead them all into the desert. The rain followed them, and the water made the whole desert a happy place for all the creatures to play in.

Weird feelings

Hi today I'm going to talk about weird feelings, specifically dejavu (did I spell it right?). How does it work exactly? I don't like it. By the way, remember our bet yesterday? Now, you are probably thinking why I put this line of words straight into my post explaining? (I really like to guess what you think). Anyway (hey don't you see a pattern) now we shall go on to the main post.

I have one guess about how it works. First you put something small in your short term memory. After you hear about it again, you felt like it already happened because the short term memory has replayed in your head. My opinion is that it is something I would rather not have. I don't like that feeling of doing something over and over again.

So in summary (what did I say about patterns), I don't like feeling something that shouldn't be true in real life and not in a dream. Goodbye, oh, and by the way, if you see a post labeled "Story" it doesn't count towards the bet. Goodbye (For real this time).

Games

Yeah, yeah you know what I'm going to say, you think this is just a random post and I'm writing this just to say that I finished my homework for today. You think that I don't know how many repetitive posts. You probably also think that you can guess what I'm going to write ("I like games, games are fun,  I want to play them right now. In fact, I'm playing them right now. When I'm done I get to play them. Yay!" And what not.) But you're wrong.  Oh I can guess what you're thinking now. You probably still think I'm not putting much effort and typing random things just to get the job done.  You also think this will be like the other post when I said you were wrong, made a bet about not ending it, and stuff. However, whatever theory you believe you are WRONG!!!!!! (Except if you thought I was going to do theory one or two) Just kidding, no wait you are write if you guessed theory number 2.

Today I am blogging about creating games, a few times I tried and failed to learn a programming language, this time however, I recently learned a lot because I had the patience to read a long book, instead of assuming it would be fun or short, which, sadly it was not.  Then I tried it, yesterday and today I was trying really hard to make one, and I think I'm almost there. I hope I can do it.

From now on when I write something like this, the first paragraph will be an intro with lots of reader-author interaction. The next few will be the main post, the last will be a closing with goodbyes. (Also to make it seem more like a formal writing piece, even if the topic is Textese or Slang) My current closing right now is explaining how my posts will be from now on. In closing, I want to offer another bet: how long can I keep this new format. See you next time!

The "Library"

Today we went to the Richard Nixon presidential library. The idea was brought in by my mom. I decided to go because I thought it was an actual library. It wasn't, so I had to enjoy the museum. Our tour started in the theater where we watched a video about his life. After that we went seeing his birthplace, helicopter, burial site, and a replica of the White House room. I learned a lot, and enjoyed the feeling of the place. When I left, I was sad to go, even though in the morning I wanted to leave the whole time. I liked the ending and the quotes about it, so now I feel recalling it, I liked our experience today.

Our family athletic Competition

Today we went to the park to play. After a "crazy" ride on a tire swing, and a game of hide and seek where my sisters cheated in, our family had a competition to see who was the number 1 athletic person. The first contest was uphill running, which my sister won. My family started commenting that jumping over the fence (which I did) was not as smart as going through it (which my sister did), in which we tested and saw that I was not as smart as my sister. Then we did long distance running, I lost both rounds and Mom won both rounds. Then we had gymnastics everyone but my two sisters failed. After that we had a climbing contest, my older sister won. So in summary, my Older Sister won every contest except for Running. We deemed her the "fittest person in our family!!"

Another boring break

Hello, this is boring break 2.0 AKA, the current break: Winter Break. Just so you know don't expect me to turn around my feelings about my boredom on the last few sentences, which as you know, happens in every single post where I say something is really boring. Say "Great Job" to me because, in this post I am not going to do that. Now that you've congratulated me I'll tell you that it was for nothing: because, well ... you'll see in a while. Hmmm... maybe it wasn't so boring after all. See, that was it: I said it but not in the last few sentences!!! Wait that was almost the last few sentences. I guess the last 4 still does count as the "Last Few". Anyway, it is 5 sentences now. Whatever, on with the post.  First of all, we haven't done anything fun together. All it has been so far was: play, play, eat, work, eat, sleep etc. Also, we haven't had any events, wait we had one today, a park "playdate". I just realized another reason: it just feels like it! In the night I am waiting for morning: in the morning I'm waiting for night. Wow I guess that was a lot of sentences. I kept my promise!!

Memorizing poems

       How do people memorize things? It works in a strange way. Not all of it is based on length. Other factors such as: repetition, grouping, association, rhyming, sensibility (how much it makes sense), and the content of the poem affect how easily a thing can be memorized.

    Length probably plays the biggest role, however 20 words with equality of the other factors compared to 24 words might not be any different. On the other hand, memorizing 60 words with minor small word mistakes is over 100 times harder than 5 word of exact precision, simply because memorizing one sentence is nearly as hard, or even easier to memorize than a single word.

   Repetition plays a relatively small role, but it can make two lines seem like one. If a whole poem only changed a single word on the end (with all the other words staying the same) then it would be as easy as if it was a simple list. One big example is "If" by Rudyard Kipling.

    Grouping actually does the most when it is not used to much. One word per line (with many lines) is only slightly harder that one single long line. In small amounts, simply moving words around while making the poem seem longer is very easy to increase the difficulty a notch. In the end though, not that much of a difference.

   Association, the next one is all about how you can relate to it which ties into the content of the poem. One example is if you know a phrase, and that phrase appears in the poem you unlock the gate with one word and the other words just come naturally: effectively decreasing the poem's length.

    A poem that does not make sense is super hard to memorize. If a poem was entirely written of Old English or a language that uses the same words in different ways, or written from slang. Once you do understand you can use the story to direct the poem or memorize the front words and Associate the words with each other. You can easily memorize poems!

My 2015 Thanksgiving Vacation

First of all, let me get something clear. This is not not not not not not not not not  a Thanksgiving Vacation. I did it on Saturday and Sunday. So technically, you could do it on any other weekend. My other choice of titles could've been "My Vacation to Joshua Tree National Park," but I was there for about 3 and 1/2 hours. We spent 2 hours at a MALL outlet that sells luxury products! We spent 4 hours on the drive, 4 hours at a hot spring, 4 hours awake at a hotel, therefore we spent a whopping 1/4 of the time on vacation at Joshua Tree National Park. And that's not even counting how long we were asleep, not to mention the fact that we weren't paying much attention to the park but rather other forms of ... entertainment.

   But enough on the title, now we can talk about what I actually did on this 2 day 1 night vacation. My mom had been planning for 2 days before we left so I could say that she was excited and didn't want to wait until the last minute. So, you can see that this vacation was already off to a bad start. On Friday I was confused, thinking we were supposed to go on Friday. So, I got a late start on packing. I caught up and did preparations.  The next day I woke up at 7:00 a.m.  I was not used to it because lately I had been sleeping to 10:00 in order to catch up on sleep lost from school. We managed to leave at 8:30. We drove 2 hours from our house and we landed in our destination, a town called Desert Hot Springs (Whoa, what tourist attraction would be here?). We ate lunch. Went to a hot springs. Then we went to eat dinner. Then we watched T.V. . We then went to a boring concert that started 20 minutes off schedule. Then we slept. I complained the whole time about the restaurant we went to. Boring day, but actually pretty fun, it was better than my other days during break. The next day we went to Joshua Tree it was actually not that exciting but I got to climb rocks. Then, we went to a MALL OUTLET boring, not a single bookstore. I was bored. All I could do was eat and shop, NIGHTMARE. But I found a map of the town I lived in, all the was upstate, WHOA! I was happy. The most significant reason that I like this vacation was not where we went but the map that I found. Anyway, I heard a theory that people only remember the vacations that areN'T perfect but the ones that had rough edges. I suppose that is true.

Sickness

   Once upon a time there was a world where all families were always sick. The nicer they were the sicker they were, but no one knew that. Until one day, a person was super bad and he was never sick again. This helped him conquer the land and he ruled over everyone else who was sick. Then a person went on a journey and changed the rules of their world's fate by asking everyone to make it reverse, the king died and everyone was happy.

Thanksgiving Break is so boring

   My first day of Thanksgiving Break is so boring. In the morning, I wanted to get in some extra sleep. That didn't work very well. By ten o'clock I was forced to go to the park. I refused and spent some time reading. Then it was lunch, I ate then played, then ate again, after that, I played a game where all I did was click. About at 3:00 I got some rest. At 3:30 I was back at playing. Now at 5:20 I am writing blog. I hope this day gets better soon. Ah, welcome back, I just finished Thanksgiving dinner right now. Yes, I know it is still Thanksgiving Eve, but my mom thought we were supposed to celebrate today. Yesterday I read an article about how turkey + sweets makes people drowsy. I think it is true I'm very sleepy. The sugar was from cake and not pie because it is my sister's birthday today! We had ice cream cake. Oh and one more thing tomorrow I will have another Thanksgiving Dinner. Oh what a change.

The new house show

"My bro bro is just so stupid, eh eh eh eh eh. Goodbye." You know these shows, right? They are all about what my sister does and says in my room. Now I will add a few points, anything quoted is my sisters words and anything in italics will be what she does. Right now she is not in my room, but she is playing piano "So,Fa,Mi,Re,Do, So, So, La, Fa, Mi, Re." Oh, come on! Now I have to wait a while before there is new news. "Mommy, Benlin only played eleven minutes!" Oh, I also have a new thing, whenever I talk it will be in single quotes. 'Eleven minutes, no way! She's lying.' She's back in my room and punched me in the side of my stomach by reading what I have so far. "No I'm not a liar!!" She opened my drawer "Why do you have stuff so dangerous in your drawer?" She is sitting next to me. Her hair just tickles. Ugh she's doing it right now. That reminds me once upon a time she used to cover up my eyes when I was typing she ain't doing it again.  Grr! She did it again. Though she only did it because I was writing this. Now she is jumping on my bed. She is so Stupid! She erased what I just wrote. All I wanted to write was, "She was singing 'rolling in the deep' by Adele" "Now would you please get out of that annoying font. " New format, my sidenotes will be in [text]. [She is so dumb, she should know that italics is not a different font. na na na boo boo!]  She is going away now to play piano again. Now I can write what I want 

BYE BYE!

Sandwiches

       Sandwich is a hard word to spell. I like them a lot. I like them a lot but I never can create a good one on my own. Most of them that I like are from restaurants, or pre-made in the store. Why? I try my best to get things but I end up with two things: cheese, and ham or turkey. It doesn't taste as good as thing in the restaurants. Mostly because I lack sauce, if I do have it I lack the bread, or fillings. I hope to get a chance some day.

        Now, why did I start the paragraph with a comment about spelling? I have no idea. Sometimes, I feel that entire  posts (mostly my journals) are way to random and don't seem to have a point. Also, what does this paragraph have to do with sandwiches? What does the sentence above have to do with spelling? I don't know.

       Anyway, back to sandwiches now. I love them a lot. This post was inspired by a sandwich recipe book about avacados? I might try to do better and imagine the best sandwich ever.

Chinese test

On Saturday, I have a big test. When it comes to tests like these I like to drag it down all the way to the last, last absolute last minute before starting. I like to do it because I think I actually can do it. Another thing is that when I do study I think I overdo it a bit. Though I don't always do as high as I would except I hope I can do it this time.

Wierdly Bright

Sometimes I feel uncomfortable when things that don't usually make me feel some way or do something are triggered by that same feeling. Like, when, I rub my eyes then my nose starts to feel funny, or when a bright light or no light has the same effect on my eyes. Sometimes very dim light is better. However, once I lay down and rest to read I feel much better than if I sit. My senses seem to be related one triggering another all the time. It is one of the reasons I can't sleep easily.

Noisy Fear

Lately, I developed a fear of noises. It is because I am always sneaking computer time when I am not actually supposed to. Every time I hear a simple noise I jump up and stop whatever I am doing and do what I am supposed to do. Anyway, now I should finish and get this over with, Bye!

Bloging concept

Sometimes before I start writing blog I do other things on the computer. I always will end up with a locked computer before I can finish writing it which is a bad thing because I will have to get the computer open again and type as much as I can before someone notices me. This is what I did today. As usual I don't have much to write about so I will simply write about anything that comes to mind and hope I can write as much as possible.

Slow churning

A stick slowly turns
while all else burns
if it goes faster
stuff grows cold
the longer it takes
the more it waits
the thing known as it
is filled with a bit
or everything moves
or it dashes
neverless a second
and it all goes by
no one will know
because it is just to slow.

Waiting for very long

     Ever tried waiting in a place with nothing to do for 2 hours? Today I did exactly that. First of all, I didn't wait at home (obviously) because I would play video games all day. Secondly, I had nothing but a book and homework. My choices after finishing home work were limited. I had another hour and a half to go through. One, I could go out and play by running all over the place or read in the area with minimal lighting. I chose to read and suffered about an hour of back breaking leaning in random positions sometimes putting the book on the ground and bending down my neck ugh! Finally it was over and I hope it will never happen again/

The lettuce

    Tony Rabbit and Angela Bunny were best friends. One day Tony decided to hop outside and bring back some exotic vegetables from the other neighboring fields instead of taking it from their meadow. Eventually, Tony Rabbit found the prize he had wanted a huge lettuce plant just sitting there however it was 3 times heavier than Tony could carry. Tony couldn't go back or else another hungry rabbit might steal the lettuce(Tony is not strong compared to other rabbits). However, he couldn't take it back without going back to the burrow for a wagon. So he decided to wait under the logic that when his friends came he could ask them to get the wagon while he guarded the lettuce. Unfortunately, they all forgot (there are many rabbits in Tony's clan who lived in a burrow) and only Angela remembered but never got the chance to tell anyone and also had a phobia of unfamiliar places.

     Soon, winter arrived and Tony slept around the lettuce for warmth and ate from it when he was hungry. Eventually after winter the lettuce was finished and Tony had no reason to stay around. However when he came back he learned that their burrow was suffering from hunger and Tony never came back with food. Only a few members of the burrow survived the winter and worked out a plan if this were to happen again.

Art

     There was a time that when I wrote blog posts I would always add an image at the end I haven't done that in a long time. I think that the reason I stopped was because it was hard to remember. I also think that I don't write as often because sometimes things get a little boring not just for reading but also for writing. It also can take a long time just to get the picture down. I hope I can start to write with pictures sooner or later.

Movie Night Camping Trip

    This year I went to my school's annual movie night and camp out. This is important to me because I didn't go to last year's event because I had homework. The movie is different each year; however, it is normally a popular movie in the current year or so. So by the time the movies gets to be watched, most people have already watched it.

    On the day of the movie, I got most of what I needed to do done. After that we lightly packed, and took off to the school fields. I helped pitch the tent. I helped but partly forgot some steps. After helping set up I took a trip to the bathroom and the water fountain. When the announcement came that the movie would start in seven minutes, the music started, it played 5 songs for approximately 15 minutes. It felt like so much longer partly because the managers had to troubleshoot for 5 minutes. After a never ending period of time, the movie finally started. I enjoyed it and realized things I hadn't the first time I watched it. At the end though, it couldn't last forever and we had to go to sleep.

    Sleeping was the hardest part of the event. I slept soundly, but I woke up at 5:00am to go to the restroom.  I even decided to hold it for 30 minutes until I couldn't resist it. After that I played some handball and other things to entertain myself. I never went back to sleep.

    Finally it was time for breakfast and I got the best food as I was almost the first in line. I ate a doughnut, a strawberry cup, some yogurt, and also a croissant. I then also drank berry juice afterwards. I helped clean up. After that, I played "What time is it Mr. Fox?" and "Cherry Bomb" with someone else. Then we had to leave.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA VERY funny author.

Why do so many numbers hate 8?
because 8 made many numbers a victim of cannibals.
There are 10 children at an elementary school Five Children just left. How many students are left?
9 students; Five Children is a single person.
Why can't people never not not not not not not not not not not eat pizza?
Never mind don't bother to count the negatives.
A tick-tock sound was heard throughout the classroom. Only one person can fix the clock. However when that one person was called to fix however he is the most normal person in class. How come only he can fix the clock?
because a different digital clock that ticked was in his private desk.

Sleeping late at night

    I wish I could sleep earlier at night. On a good day I can fall asleep by ten if I go to bed before 8:30pm. Even from 9:00-10:00 it still takes of long period of me rolling around in bed and changing locations before I fall asleep. In the morning, I'm wide awake, NOT. I'm so sleepy I may waste 3-10 minutes getting out of bed and changing. I cannot sleep early at all. The only times I ever fall asleep when I don't want to is during vacation return trips which in I end up feeling my med at 3 in the morning. Strangely I'm wide awake in the morning after it.  Well, let's say goodbye before I... doze off for the night.

[unknown title]

     I cannot write anything today. My mom told me I have to write something, anything, as long as I write something even if it is something as short as two sentences. She told me to write these two lines: "I cannot write anything today. I hope I can write something tomorrow!" Basically that is what I just did except for some stuff in the middle and the end. I hope I can write something tomorrow. See you next day!

Cake

It is a wonderful cake
That no one may take.
As tasty as it is
No her or his
Can take it
Unless all candles are lit.
This cake is made
Hand to hand by a thousand maids
It is as large as a lion,
And its covered with cyan.
Many can touch it
But only such can see it.
What is this cake?

Hint: not a real cake.

This Year's Spaghetti Dinner

        Every year, my sister's school has an annual Spaghetti Dinner event. It starts with an endlessly long line to get the food which is spaghetti, salad, and garlic bread. Then around the time the first people finish eating; desserts that people brought to the party are served to everyone waiting in line. Also alongside there is a lemonade station for drinks of lemonade. After eating is done most people go home or play in the fields. At 7:00 pm everyone goes home.

        I've been to two of these events, however I liked this one better for one no make that three reasons. When waiting in the super long line that actually snaked inside the building, I got to get my food already collected by Dad so I just had to make the no meat or meat choice on the spaghetti. I was one of the first ones finished and got dessert without waiting in a single line. To add to that I managed to get a second helping of garlic bread which I've never done before!

        I also played many fun games with three other people. We started with keep-away the ball from the other people. We then played monkey in the middle for a long time. Soon we got bored and played statues. We were all having so much fun that I forgot that at 7:00 we all  had to leave. As I left, I knew that I had had a great night. 

My sisters

I don't like my sisters
They always get along and work together well,
Each and every day
Whatever they do they don't like me!
They work together against me,
They favor each other.
However we sometimes work together,
Like when we watch videos.
As a brother, I help both of them
but rarely both at once.
We also make trades
Now that I think of it,
I love my sisters.

A recording of my sister and I

Hello, welcome to my sister's room TV. Oh, that was my sister she said, "Computer you mean. That's not how you spell mean, that's how you spell dumb. Now she reading a book called go girls ... "...sister spirit."She's been awfully quiet for a long time ... "BECAUSE I'M READING!!" I just asked her, "hello, can you talk to me now?" Finally she started talking again. That took like 30 minutes. See you next time.

Chess

I like to play chess. Today I went to chess camp. I played with 2 people today. I won one and lost one. On each game we learn at least two lessons. When I came we did a few tactics. I got 2/4 all correct. The others I got most correct. later I played a game and won. After reviewing it I was supposed to watch the little kids. After that we had a break where we played video games and watched tv. After that, I lost a game. Then we did 3 more tactics. I got 1 right. Then, we had another break.

Poems Poems Poems

Poems can be easy to write
especially if they don't rhyme
my sister writes short poems
so they take very little time.

When her rhymes are gone,
She does more than one,
her parents are very proud,
so she brags about what she's done.

No matter how much I've done
she says I only did a single
sometimes I don't do any,
but she can do many in the time of a jingle.

That is why today I write it short
I can get things over with
and do what i want,
till the day goes adrift.

Rocker land

   Once upon a time there was a land called Rockerland. Rockerland was a war torn world with vast empty, lifeless space everywhere except small fortified cities with little room for anything  Rockerland was full of creatures with a certain mark. This mark showed which alliance they belonged to. This mark could be changed if their alliance did. A change would give them the perks of that alliance. They also morphed into the host creature of the alliance if they were proven trustworthy. The alliances were one for each symbol in Rock, Paper, Scissors Upgraded. A few marks were laid on both wrists. These marks never changed so they could identify anyone if creatures wanted to.

    A groundhog named Burrow was born into the rock alliance, the dominant alliance of the whole world( which is why empty space is rocks and the name of this world is Rockerland). The groundhogs along with many underground creatures were considered servants of upper species. Creatures everywhere were given chances to rise to the top. There were only three chances to rise up a level from servants. The first was an academic test that could be taken anytime. The creature with the top score was passed into a upper class species as with all their descendants for a hundred years. The second chance was when they were in their middle ages an Olympics was held the winners were promoted with all descendants for a century. The third was a combination of both and could be taken anytime after the Olympics (Second chance.) Other "Alliances" had a different method but somewhat the same.

    Burrow's family was the only groundhog family not yet promoted in the century yet. The (natural) life span of all creatures was the same. The current war was everyone versus the rock alliance in an effort to overthrow them. However, those alliances did not trust each other and even though they worked together well a victory's spoils were not equally shared they fought against each other until the spoils were so small that all of it combined was less than each one had before.

   Often wars were short with a single battle up to 23 battles maximum. Most were over in a month. The time period between wars however was even shorter up to a few hours of peace.

   One day, Burrow decided not to work in any contest and gather efforts in stopping wars altogether. Peace efforts were made. All the alliances then turned on peace organizations. They were easily crushed by the alliances and Burrow and her friends were thrown in prison. Each day an animal was interrogated and tried, sometimes it was important, sometimes it was to make them choose how they wanted to die.

    The next day that same animal was killed. 5 died in the process before another war struck and each alliance took 3 members before turning on each other. After long periods of being held in prison, escaping, gathering the members, fighting again, and getting captured, Burrow tried a different approach and wrote on a surrvery. "Why do you fight?".  After no one knew the world became peaceful.

Our camping trip

    The last four days I went on a camping trip. We went with another family with 3 people (1 adult, two children) We had 6 people. The first day we went to Las Vegas. Normally, when we go to Las Vegas we go early (around 9:00 A.M. to 11:00 A.M.) The drive from where we live takes 4 hrs in ideal circumstances and 5-7 hrs with traffic. Once we arrived at 2 pm. This time however, we took off at 5:00 P.M. and with the traffic we arrived around midnight.  On the ride it was a fight until my sisters fell asleep. We slept at the Stratosphere Hotel. We went to the top of the hotel ( maybe) the tower is said to be 871 feet up from floor 108 the observation deck and a bit higher is 109 the roof assess deck with telescopes and 2 thrill rides. One where a roller coaster goes at high speed across a see-saw ramp. Another is an extreme version of a spinning seat ride which is very high up. Another on a higher floor where people ride up and down at almost double the height of the original floor. My dad tended to figure out how things worked by looking at it as he did with the Sky diving thrill ride.  We didn't want to go on any of the rides. (well, my sister wasn't too scared) We slept at 1:30 A.M. and woke up at 6:15 A.M. We also played with the luxury jacuzzi.

    At 7 we went on the car. This trip was from Las Vegas, NV to Page, AZ. We went from I-15 to cross Arizona and Utah border respectively. We then transferred to highway 9 at St. George and US 89-A at Hurricane. We crossed the border a couple times before transferring to US 89 (the GPS called it 89 loop for some reason) after that we crossed the border to UT again. Then back to AZ at the Colorado river bridge. We took a tour of the Upper Antelope Canyon which had many cool takeable photos because cameras distorted distance and light. We slept at Wahweap Campsite. I played chess with my friend and I lost the first game and drawed on the second with a neat trick.

 We then left and drove to Antelope Canyon Marina. We rented a boat that could seat 10 people. I learned how to drive a boat and swim with a lifejacket. We looked at the view and swam from time to time.We also played chess we were tied at the end of the day.We camped at a very spiky area with very uncomfortable conditions. The next day we hiked at Rainbow natural bridge national monument. I learned much about it. We then played chess he beat me 2-1. So he won one game more than me in the total course of the vacation. After returning the boat we told jokes and ate at Burger King before sleeping at home at 2 am.

The cotton field

  In the only country in a certain planet, there was a cotton field. The cotton field covered nearly the whole country except for lakes, rivers, seas, oceans, mines, mountains, and the forest. This world traded with another world with separate nations. They suffered in times of war because everything besides cotton, ore, oil, coal, wood, apples, and water was imported. They traded cotton because it was high quality and no person outside of the country could match the care that made it super high quality. In return they got, food, glue, airplanes, car, and almost everything they couldn't make or manufacture.

   The last world war in the other world brought a halt to its economy and its dependence on the other world caused many people to die. The people there avoided extinction by adapting and surviving so that they only needed to eat apples.  Tribes appeared and the nation split into many parts. The cotton field was destroyed over the wars. Over time the country had many resources by trading seeds and since the cotton field wasn't there anymore they had time and space to develop. However, the peaceful era of the cotton field was long gone and was went on and on taking a break for 3 years or so from a peace treaty, then restarting the fight.

   A boy who lived in the small nation known as sticks and stones were least developed. The boy worked hard with his tribe to rebuild the cotton field and sold cotton to other nations. They joined again as one and had all necessary survival resources and peace.

Graphic Novels

Recently, I prefer graphic novels over regular books. I think it is because they are quicker to read. Even though some pictures can show you what is going on, my dad says that you often only look at the pictures if it is specifically written that you should look at the pictures because it will help you understand the story or if the notes talk about the illustrations. He also said that it might be indirectly stated in the dialogue to urge you to look at the pictures. I think that if it was a short comic strip you may look at the pictures because the words don't show much in 9-12 scenes.

The cockroach song

   Once upon a time there was a cockroach this cockroach was very lonely but very talented. As the loneliest cockroach in the world not a single could acknowledge his ability and the cockroach sung lonely songs of sadness. The people who lived near her cockroachy house hated her sounds and called the cockroach Greennoying. Greennoying liked that name and used it in her songs. She learned the languages of many nearby animals and was fluent in 35 different animals' languages all of the species and subspecies included.  She translated her songs into all the languages, and one song she called, "Human language" was filled with insults to humans but when translated (somehow) the words got blurred up and it seemed like pure flattery to the language an animal heard it in except humans saw it with many, many, insults. "You're so dumb you made a scarecrow instead of shooting the crow. To a pig that doesn't know how to build with straw heard, "Ouya areyay osay umbday ouya ademay ayay carecrowsay insteadyay ofyay illlingkay ethay owcray!" While everyday the pig was fooled by crows. Most lines of the song were like this but way more extreme. This caused the humans to go crazy and move out. The cockroach had a party inside the home with all of his friends and lived there as if they were the owners.

   They had their first problem when a person bought the house from the original owners and moved in. The scared animal friends attacked trying to prevent the old lady from getting in. However she moved in unconscious to the fact that she had furry "visitors" in the house. She however was constantly attacked. When the animals were caught she said, "Stupid animals get out!" The cockroach yelled, "No, yo stupid, thought I couldn't understand you?"  They settled down and became friends the lonely woman had animal friends and learned the languages when she was dying of disease the animals sung lovely songs for her and she died under the care of the animals who did the funeral. They tricked people into not coming in the house and the animals sung day and night living a life in a strange house. 

Music Magic

 Once upon a time there were 5 musicians. They played music with special abilities. The first one played rock and roll music which literally created rocks and made things roll. The second one played lullabies and could charm anything. The third musicians played classical music which could create classics and do anything with them. The fourth played jazz which made people zzzzzzzzzz. The fifth was just the best musician in the musician's world. They never met each other. They were admired by people around them. The four "superpower" musicians created a team. They clearly weren't the best musicians but were good enough that their power were useful. The fifth musician longed to join them but was refused. "Goodbye, Titi!" the 4 musician teased. Titi worked hard and managed to become as famous as them. They still didn't accept him. So Titi, made up his own power which was using music skills. With piano's and pedals and high pitched instruments he made annoying frequencies. He also used different dynamics to change mood. Also playing sudden notes to scare people. He still wasn't accepted because people claimed anyone could do that. This inspired Titi to make his own group of good musicians to do those things and be "superheroes"

The cats

 Once upon a time there were two cats. One was kind and and very poor, a slave to a dog. The other cat had purr-fect behavior and looks. One day they met each other. "Why are you wearing... nothing?" asked the rich cat. "I'm can't afford anything!" replied the poor cat. The next day, the rich cat gave the poor cat a nice looking robe. The poor cat's master took it away from his slave. The poor cat with her kind-nature let him take it. The poor cat received robe after robe and the master sold each. They thought up of a plan. The rich cat almost sacrificed all his riches and the slave owner became so rich, but then citizens started crowding in the store to buy all the robes and other stuff he collected from the poor cat. Due to the many customers,  he ran out of stock. No one went to his store because they never had what they needed. He owed money to the landlord and advertisers. He sold away his slave to the rich cat and the rich cat set the poor cat free. The two pets lived happily ever after.

Base Builders (part 1)

Once upon a time in a world far away,  there was a place filled with wildlife it was far from civilization. Then people started building bases and attacked each other. They had afraid refugees seek shelter in the bases. One base was so poorly defended not a single person attacked it. It was owned by the Forest Tribe and inherited to the person in the main family of the clan. They actually owned little of the Forest which was owned by the Jungle Tribe. Then it was inherited by Simon Forest. He recognized how to make it better and stuffed holes with cheap materials so the base was actually safe from arrows despite taking 35 hits in total. 20 if used by a sword 5 if an axe. It had 6 inhabitants. He tempted a nearby village with 20 villagers to attack. They had arrows and needed 35 hits to break a hole and actually come in. The six tribe members used the situation to their advantage and killed 15 villagers and the other surrendered and became members of the tribe. Simon added a side to the left to make more space he then added a farm surrounded with a fence so 3 people could farm and supply food. They had leftovers and now had enough money to replace the materials with better ones which could take 70 arrow hits 40 sword hits and 10 axe hits. They also bought more land to increase the general size and make a wall with four towers where people can sleep inside the walls. In the courtyard of the walls was the farm which could fit 5 people. More refugees came and it gained popularity. It improved faster than other villages and quickly became a city. Rival powerful villages were ignorant to that fact and kept fighting each other. Soon the city conquered the entire forest and became groups of cities. Other cities also conquered small villages and took over their entire terrain. They still fought each other as the forest tribe took over their small cities. Even when they learned about it they neglected it because they all feared if they focused on the small villages they would lose the fight. So small cities rebelled and created a group that focused on destroying bigger cities. It had pact with the forest tribe. By the time the war was won and all the terrain was for the desert tribe it was small as the small cities eventually ate it up and changed its name to the axes tribe and started fighting the forest and lost. The forest tribe ruled that world... until it was attacked by other worlds. 

A night with my sister

Slowly, in the silent night.
The room is frozen in silence.
Up til 12, a single light.
From a sleeping girl and a boy.
Counting coins all night long.
A single song,
makes the whole thing start again.
Which night is this?
The night I write a poem.
Which Poem?
This.

game theory

For many reasons, I think that most games are a "the more you play the better you get" style. However, it makes the game seem fun at first but boring when you think about it. In multi-player games there is more competition. Even in some math games it is also this style. The only other style is a repetition type which is normally waiting and goes on and on usually getting harder and having high scores. You can get better advantages but in general you need skill.

Rock, Paper, Scissors Uprgaded

New items:

Fire: Fire beats paper and grass but loses to water. Hand signal: make a diamond with hands.

Water: Water beats rock and Fire but loses to grass. Hand signal: curve hand upward to represent waves.

Grass: Grass beats scissors and water but loses to fire. Hand signal:  put up three fingers.

Basic Elemental Destroyer: beats all basic elements (fire, water, grass) loses to rock, paper, scissors, wind,lightning or iron. Hand signal put hands together as if about to clap.

Normality: beats rock paper or scissors. Loses to any element( basic or advanced). hand signal: with one hand show scissors the other paper and the scissor cutting the paper.

Wind (Classified as advanced element) takes two turns to form( meaning the first time it does nothing but second time shows its effects beats everything except grass and rock. Note: if someone does grass or rock when you do wind on your first reload you lose. If they do grass or rock when you do wind on the second reload it is a tie. Also you do not have do the second reload directly after the first. Hand signal: make wind with your hands.
Lightning (Classified as advanced element) takes two turns to form, beats everything except fire and paper. Note: if someone does fire or paper when you do lightning on your first reload you lose. If they do fire or paper when you do lightning on the second reload it is a tie. Also you do not have do the second reload directly after the first. Hand signal: form claws with your hands.
Iron (Classified as advanced element) takes two turns to form, beats everything except water and scissors. Note: if someone does water or scissors when you do iron on your first reload you lose. If they do water or scissors on the second reload it is a tie. Also you do not have do the second reload directly after the first. Hand signal: grab both hands together so it looks like a giant rock.
Advance bug: Beats all advanced elements loses to anything else except for Basic Elemental destroyer and Normality. Hand signal; hold up two fingers and do bunny ears.
Please add any new ones you would like to add in the comments.

Overlook

Once upon a time there were two girls. One was named Inferred the other was named Ultraviolet. They both were funny. To most people they looked strange. However they had a strange way of solving problems. One day, a crazy person attacked a building. They found out and did the most crazy thing that most people would have overlooked: Make a joke. They saved the building. They had lots of cool ways to solve problems. Over time, they were respected as great solvers and new to always try something simple before other things.

The notebook conquest

Once upon a time there was a notebook. It saw everything and everything on it was a picture of the world. It was useful for commanders because they could see if the enemy was hiding something. It was also good for firefighters and police so they can find hidden items or people. So it was prized to everyone.  However, the notebook cannot be edited. If a page was even touched the person who touched it would have bad luck until they are unable to touch it again. Later by studying the notebook one person realized that it told what would happen one second before it did. When someone studied it 5 years later they realized the stuff in the book happened 1 minute before it did. 5 years later an hour, then 60 hours, then 3,600 hours, each time it increased by 60. Later, people did not like how it was 100% unchangeabley correct of what will happen years later. They burned it and hoped it would be gone however one person got a glance that a person would use it 5,000,000 years in the future and passed it down. Over time the secret was passed down. It was later revealed someone accidentally created one 5,000,000 years in the future with a one second interval. It became a cycle of new notebooks and burnings. One, day people were fed up and abandoned the area. This happened as a slow process new areas being deserted and then people lived on a small island many people died off and the entire human population became 500. The notebook started to take over when suddenly a person went to protect his friends from the menace of thought and was hit in the head in the process. He woke up and realized it was just a dream.

The Backpack Pownables

Once upon a time, there was a school. In the school were 4 best friends: Abcde, Fghij, Klmnop, and Qrstuvwxyz. One day, they were being bullied. Suddenly all four backpacks shrank to the size of an ant then when the bullies were about to pummel them the backpacks turned into a normal size and went crazy saving the four friends. While the friends were still wondering what had happened the backpacks started moving on their own and at certain moments almost crashed but miraculously dodged it. They eventually headed toward the outskirts of town and saw a building a sign read, "Backpack Pownables Training Area" They met a person who called himself "Mister Backpacker" He told them about Backpack Bully prevention which was the use of backpacks for protection. He told them that people may pay them for saving them and gave them all roller backpacks he told them that they would eventually get better at it and taught them a few moves. The next day they used skills and earned money. They learned about strategies like strapping on rockets or putting in weight. Soon they had good super backpacks they were heroes and loved backpacks ever since.

The coded world

Once upon a time there was a world where everything of high level intelligence was spoken in code. Beyond 8th grade academics was spoken in code. If someone tried to pass along any supposed to be communicated code info they, for unknown reasons would get sick and the words would sound like they were in a code. The more times done the more severe the illness was. Over time, people learned to live by it and people were often prized for ability to encipher and decipher codes. Most of these people were peaceful, but some took advantage of their ability to win wars and make things go their way. They often tried to destroy other people good at codes to rule. They often failed and were punished severely. One time, however one managed to become the only one and easily conquered the world. He established a system that whenever one baby with code talent was born he took custody of him/her he tried to either turn them or if not loyal to him by age 12 would be executed. He forced a couple of scientists to make all his children have the same abilities. This repeated and before their first child was born the current ruler of the world would have children with the same ability. The family reign lasted for 1299 years before the downfall. It started with a child named ice cream. At age he was sent to the palace for the code process. He refused to go with it and resisted until he was 11 years and 363 days old.  Then he decided to escape. One day he saw his chance during lunch he noticed the window was open. He ran out of the lunch room... and was chased by a legion of guards. When he peered down he saw it was at least 2,000 feet down but the vigorous guards kept chasing with swords, spears, and clubs. The seconds ticked by second after second was wasted when the guards were so close that a sword could've impaled him he jumped right down... into the moat. The guards looked out the window and laughed jeering about how stupid Ice Cream was. Despite the fact that they were very interested, right after the guards stopped looking a downright dumb guard threw a rope to try to whip Ice Cream. At that moment Ice Cream caught the rope and started spinning in circles knowing if he let go at the wrong time he would go flying when the guard was tired and let go Ice Cream threw the rope around his waist and for some reason got tied there he knew now he would fall and break a couple of bones but then he threw the guard up into the air and went flying with him luckily they landed in some bushes out of sight and survived. Ice Cream took the guard and dragged it along until he found his home village. He left the guard in custody of the police and told his parents all about life in the palace. Ice cream shared his skills with everyone to beat the king and now had a much more fair system to live and the code curse was gone.

Write Blog to play chess

Lately, I have been playing in chess tournaments. I really like to play chess, but, however my mother says I can't go unless I behave well about writing in my blog and playing piano. Likewise, I often hope I will get better and like to watch videos about chess tactics. Every day, I hope that at the end of the week my mom will let me go. Also, since other people play chess on Thursdays I can only watch and wait for Sunday to come.

The secret base

Once upon a time there were two kids. They liked acting out games in real life. Their interest started when they built a tree house with their farther. They modified it a lot and it became the most treasured tree house in the neighborhood. They built a bunch of tree houses and connected each house with tension bridges secured by sets of ropes. This allowed a system of leaving a house easily. As the kids became better engineers the tree house system connected cities. Many people thought of these bridges as a pedestrian walkway similar to a subway but provided a view. Some families would try to walk across countries sleeping and eating at the tree house "stations." Certain people even created restaurants that spanned across a couple of bridges with the main kitchen in a building and waiters delivering food. The bridge network often went over major hotels and were connected with them. Later, more and more big cities adopted the bridge network. However none had trees tall enough to match the height of skyscrapers. The children of this city thought that they could place the bridge out at a lower level to connect with the skyscrapers. As technology grew the bridges were as cheap as possible but also as strong as possible.  The bridge was so good that people began to set tolls if people wanted to enter at a certain entrance. Now, buildings were not only priced for their quality but also the number of bridges that intersected at the station. Generally, the bridges followed the routes of freeways or highways. Sometimes, smaller bridges were funded by building owners to increase the number of bridges intersecting. It later had great organization so that only certain routes would be tolled. Certain cities also developed around bridge stations they were often named after the children originally with this idea.

Writing Daily

Now, from this point on I will try my best to write posts more often. I can feel like this is my first post in this blog because the statistics are different. I know some people may keep checking for new things. I hope again to get into the habit of writing at least one post daily. I really want to have a month where many people see my blog and it will rise up again.

A girl and dog

One day a girl fell off her bike;Her knee scraped the ground.
The impact made a sound,
It made a dog run
It ran right into a gun.
The gun fired into a fake face
The dog ran in a faster pace.
It bumps into a wall.
Suddenly, the girl gets back up from the ground.
She started making more sound;
The dog loved it and barked.
The dog was healed.
The girl adopted the dog,
and they played in the field.

The Vegetable Monster

  Once upon a time there were a bunch of vegetables each were tired of being food for animals. They bunched together and scared small animals like rats. However rabbits weren't scared and half the time couldn't even see the vegetables that were all piled up. To larger animals the vegetable pile was crushed and became the original build up vegetables and were the next thing the large animals saw. One day a carrot stowaway-ed into a plane and landed at a huge carrot farm the carrots joined together many ways and figured out how to poke holes into each other and stick. The carrots were so big that the farmer thought it was a Scarrotrow and didn't terminate it. The design was so good that animals promised carrots freedom and other vegetables copied their strategy.
