Second Semester Technology
I have learned a lot in Second Semester Technology. I have learned how to cite pictures. We did it so many times I can probably do it like the back of my hand. I have also gotten a lot better at typing. Typing Web really helped. I liked how there was a constant stream of projects ready for us to do. There wasn't one day when I just sat there and didn't do anything. Something I didn't like about this class is that as soon as we stepped in the classroom, if there was a blog post on the week, we had better be ready when the bell rings. Another thing I like about this class is that we had a free blog post every Thursday, so we could finally express ourselves and not have all of these requirements. Mrs. DeBolt is a pretty cool for being able to put up with us rowdy teenagers while she is pregnant.(:

Summer 2013
I'm more excited for this summer than past summers. It is probably because I'm not only going got Chicago, but I'm also going to Texas! This summer is probably going to be a hot one, so the only downer about this summer is that because it is going to be so hot I'm going to get a really bad sun burn. My brother plays select baseball so most of the summer (especially the weekends) are going to be devoted to watching 11 year old boys play baseball all day is gonna be a bit of a downer. Because of my brother's baseball though we get to go to Chicago for about a week! It's really exciting because I have never been to Chicago before and we get to go to Six Flags! Then, after we get home from Chicago my mom has to hurry up and do the laundry, so we can pack for Texas. Part of our family lives down there and my cousin is graduating so we are going to stay down there for about a week as well. Then when we come back from Texas it will be my birthday and I will officially be 14! Yay!

Humanity
If I were to explain how terrible humanity is in one word it would be: Hitler. Hitler was from Germany and he got the brilliant idea that anybody who was not the same race or religion as him must die. That mainly applied to Jews. He built encampments to "store" them in after his men captured them. There wasn't hardly any food, nothing to drink, their shoes and clothes were taken from them. A lot of the time if you were put into an encampment, you were going to die. You could die of starvation, thirst, being gassed being shot, and even overworked. Families were often separated. It was very cruel. Eventually Hitler tried taking over other surrounding countries. He even got some other countries leaders to agree and fight with him. He ended up killing thousands of Jews in only a few years!

Being Ditched for Choir
Today is the choir trip to Six Flags! Yay! The only problem is: I'm not in choir and all of my friends are. I have nobody to talk to all day. Even the majority of band is gone because they are in both choir and band. Right this second I am not only the only girl in this class (besides Mrs. DeBolt(; ), but I am also sitting all by myself. Social Studies wasn't that bad because I had Sarah, but now I am gonna have nobody! I am going to be sitting all by myself in writing today too. This is not cool!! All of my friends said they were gonna text me while they were there so they could still talk to me, but there is one little issue. I can't text in school, so that causes a bit of an issue.

Something Worth Knowing
In school they teach us a lot of different things. The Pythagorean Therom, parts of a frog, the different ways to spell to, and even the different hardships Abraham Lincoln went through in writing the Emancipation Proclamation. Something we don't learn though is how to get out of a sticky situation with your boss or how to tell if a person is safe when they come to your door asking for help. We learn a lot of unnecessary things in school, but what about the things that we really are going to need when we get older. What if a girl wants to be a stay at home mom? There are still things she needs to know in order to fulfill that requirement and it is things we are supposed to be taught.
