Ted Talk

So there is this informative program called TED, but because I don't have much time right now, you can find out more by going on www.ted.com Once you look at the website you will understand this more. My class and I did a TED talk. We all these cool topics like Nanotechnology, Dark Matter, Bush Babies, Animal Cloning, Apple's Future, Social Insect Biomimcry, and The Top Ten Inventions of all time. It was amazing, and educational. We were put into groups of 3 or 4 and had to make a ten min. speech and slide show. First we had to become experts on our topic. Once we finished everything, the class and I performed them in front of some other classes and at night we performed in front of about 75 people. I was so nervous and I bet a lot of people were too. But when you talking about something you enjoy, the time melts away and you are having more fun than being nervous. I really enjoyed it and I thought I should mention it. Bye!! :)

Book Fair

So 3 days ago, my school had a book fair and my class went. There was a lot of cool, fun, and interesting book, but I got a poster and Percy Jackson and The Olympians book 3. The poster had a picture of an amazing white horse ( I prefer black) standing in a meadow and it says "Free Rein" on it. Book 3 in that series is called the Titan's Curse and 2 days later I finished it. Anyway the bookfair also had these guess how many popcorn kernels are in the bowl. It was like 600 something. I can't for the next bookfair!!

My Dreams

ok, so I'm just letting you know, I have a lot of weird dreams. Some of them are very odd and others are quite different. For example, last night I had a dream where I was eaten by a carnivores plant. It grabbed me by the foot and swallowed me. I was very disturbed when that happened. Another was when I was at the beach in a pink gorilla suit. People starred. See, I have a lot of weird things going on in my head. I'm glad I told you this! :):):):):)

Gulf Oil Spill

Have you heard of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico? There was a terrible oil spill and it is just turning the beautiful waters disgusting. First of all, it is endangering wildlife and right when everyone is trying to "Go Green", this happens. It is also destroying the seafood market. Fishermen,seafood stores, etc. are closing down, and what about you seafood lovers? What about the beaches? do you think anyone can go swimming in this mucky oil? Not really. Some of the places that are majorly affected by this oil spill is Louisiana, the state that was hit with hurricane Katrina. They have been through one problem and now they are going through another. If you want to help, then raise money. Raise money and donate it to this cause. Also, you can raise awareness. The more people how know, the more people will help. But really, the biggest thing we can do, is hope and pray.

iPad!

Guess what?! I got the Ipad! So far it is really cool and high-tech I feel like I'm on a giant Iphone, except you can't call people on this. Just if you are aware, I'm writing this post from my Ipad! The keyboard makes a clicking sound when you press a letter. I really am enjoying this. Bye! See you soon readers!.

Randomology

Do you know how to be random? It is simple. At a random time, say something really random. For example, Lolipop, Pickle, Hippo, etc. Just say something that is completely off subject. Remeber, randomness comes from the soul.

Newspaper Door

Are you ever bored with your bedroom door? Make it a newspaper! Write up some articles about favorites,what happens to you, what you think of things, ideas,etc! You can even make Ads!! Just get paper and type or write an article. Then, stick on your door with tape. When you want to get rid of an article, then take it down and put up a new one. Enjoy!!!

Animal Crackers

Have you ever wondered why animal crackers are called animal crackers? Why not reptile, mammal, amphibian, or bird crackers. It confuses me. Maybe in the future they'll make some. I sure hope so.

Hermit Crabs!!

A few days ago, my class got Hermit crabs! 4,to be exact. They are so cute and interesting, but they have a lot of needs. We even named them. Hermes, Dr.Phil, Pablo, and Uncle Bob. It is really fascinating. P.S. They don't like crowds staring at them.
