8th Grade

I am nervous for 8th grade but excited too. There are many more opportunities in 8th grade, so it will be a different.  Next year we also get to do cooler science experiments like dissecting animals and stuff like that. We also get to go to Six Flags next year for band. Six Flags would be fun because we would have a concert and then we would go on some rides while we were there. In 8th grade there is also harder classes too because all of the upper level kids do Algebra 1.

Hogwarts

I would go to Hogwarts because it is a mysterious place. It would be awesome to be a wizard at Hogwarts too. If I were to end up in Hogwarts, I would stay in the school and learn to be a wizard. Being a wizard would be an amazing feat because of the power I would have. I would meet Harry, Ron, and Heremoine if I were to go there. Who knows, maybe I would fight Voldemort or something like that.

They took everything except one odd thing

The robbers took everything! They came last night and took everything except for that one thing. My mom's diamond ring that she got for her anniversary. It lay right in the middle of the floor. The police saw nothing about it, but I was suspicious. Why take everything in the house even if it's not expensive and leave a diamond ring?

YMCA Basketball

After school basketball ended this year, I signed up for YMCA basketball. I signed up because my dad encouraged me because I didn't get much playing time for school basketball. My team isn't the best, but I like how I get to play 3 quarters of each game. It's not very fun when you don't score any points or your team loses, and it is sort of frustrating because you think in your head that you didn't try hard enough or you should have made this shot etc. I'm playing with a kid who was on the Windsor 7th grade basketball team, so it's not like I'm the only one who played school basketball too.

Who turned the lights out?!

During this years Super Bowl, the power went out and everyone was caught by surprise. The Ravens were winning by about 25 points, and then the power went out. It took them about 30 minutes to get it completely back on. The 49ers came back to the game and scored about 2 or 3 touchdowns while the Ravens were in the dust.The Ravens ended up winning, 33-36, but they were definitely close to losing. It looked like the Ravens would run away with the game by halftime, but it was a lot closer than most people thought it would be.
