What we did for my mother we did a lot of stuff and it was fun. The first thing we did is make breakfast for her it was bacon,eggs,sausage, potatoes,and biscuits. We went outside and barbque and had chicken, peas, and french fries red. We watched a movie and then for dessert we had home made sundae’s it looked like my mom had fun and she loved the presents we all gave her. My sister made her a tea cup with pretend tea. My brother made her a diploma and a card. I germonie made her pictures and a mother’s day video. It was a fun day.

Music creates me when i hear it then sing out loud to show how i feel.  Music is my passion it’s like fashion to me but is is much better to feel like the designer  instead of am assistant, but what i mean is that when the singing is being special in your own way. When i  hear music i feel like a composer from an orchestra because music is so loud you have to sometimes feel it with your hands like: Guitar, piano, harp, saxophone, and a drum. The music is a deep feeling i n your heart and you always value your heart well you’re suppose to but that is how music is if you make it up by you’re self. And that is why i value music.

Why i want to do well on the CST? I would like to do well because it depends what happens in the next grade. The CST is a test that some  people should try to do better on i know i’am going to try and do better. i would like to do better because i would like to have good classes next year.The CST is like taking care of a dog you have to treat like it’s human or something i don’t know but all you have to do is focus and don’t talk so you’ll do fine.

I did a whole bunch of things when i was over the break. I went to six flags twice,  I went to the park like twelve times or more, I went to my cousin Marcel’s baby shower and we left are bathing suits. My dad had a concert but i didn’t go because i went to my Auntie Carolyn’s house. Her neighbor Phyllis got a new dog her name is DJ but she’s a Tasmanian devil she runs and runs and irritate’s my Auntie’s dog. When we where going to leave her other neighbor Carolyn has a dog named rosie and she jumped on me when i  was sitting down. Then i came home on Monday and spent time with my family. Everyday was really different some days where very boring but days i went somewhere it wasn’t.
