dragons den saturday
My favorite thing to do on Saturdays is to hang out with friends. It doesn't really mtter what I'm doing as long as I'm with people. Normally I go to someones house, the movies, the mall, sometimes a show and sometimes I just have people over. When I'm not with friends I hangout with family or sometimes go shopping. I like laid back Saturdays.
’Typhoid Fever’– Present Tense Childhood Memory.”
When I was 6 years old, my sister and I were playing in my backyard,or 'our secret spot.' My mom would always look for us and she never could find us because the the weeds in the yard grew about 4 feet high and we made a trail from the side of the yard to the middle so she couldn't see. We hid there all the time and brought snacks and played games and one day i heard this loud rumbling noise while I was in the middle. It turns out it was my uncle with the lawn mower. That day my sister and I wouldn't come out of our rooms and made it very obvious that we were upset. We had no where to hide or play anymore. It turned out that the weeds grew so fast that we had somewhere to hide out not too long after that.

’The Storyteller’ - Memorable Books from My Childhood
The Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister
Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak
If You Give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Joffe Numeroff
Jumanji by Chris Van Allsburg
The Little Engine That Could by Watty Piper
When I was little my favorite book was If you Give A Mouse A Cookie. It is about a mouse that starts off by getting one thing and she ends up wanting everything. This was my favorite book because my mom would read it to me before bed, and always compare me to the mouse. I would also read it in class in 2nd grade. I remember going to the library and hiding in the corner while reading it over and over.

House Parent Point of View (Janson)
As I walked into girls 8 today, I realized that everyone is in a good mood. It is sometimes overwhelming because of my new born son, but the girls make it easy to take care of him and them at the same time. They are respectful and I can trust them to be alone for a few minutes while I need to take care of some buissness. I made dinner for the girls at 5:30 and made sure to help them with their homework at at 6:30. the rest of the night we all relaxed and talked about everyday things. they all did their chores before ten and were in their rooms at 11. I then got off shift and turned in the comm logs to te office. the rest of the night was mine to relax with my husband while my son Elijah slept.

Kim the Rec Therapist
Most people expect a rec therapist to be in a suit and be all about business but not Kim, she’s always ready to be active and always has a smile on her face while doing it. The first time I met Kim I could tell by seeing the way she carried herself that she was a very respectable person. Shes full of vibrant colors and very spiritually balanced. Kim goes above and beyond meeting her job requirements.
In the cafe this summer, I was sitting at the table alone on 4th of July and Kim noticed me so she walked over and asked if she could eat with me. At that time, I realized she cared about doing more than expected. Normally staff sit with other staff, but Kim enjoyed eating with us. She didn't bother even talking about the problem, but instead talk about fun things to get my mind off of the problem. By the end of that lunch I had felt so much better and left with a great attitude.
My sister and I decided to go on a kayaking trip with Kim in August for sister day. It was in La Jolla, over by the cove where all the snorkalors go. I have always been really afraid of the ocean and I only went on the trip for my sister cause she loves the water. I was scared to go in the water so Kim told me a story to help me get over the fear and went with me and we did it together.
Once the school year started, Everyone kept bothering me to do something outside of school so I went to Kim and asked her what I could do and she told me music lessons. I told her I wanted to play the guitar so she made it happen. I was very grateful that I had someone that cared about me enough to get me not just what i needed but what I wanted to.
Kim is important to me because she keeps me balanced and before i get upset shes always there to talk to. She helps me find a better place and makes me realize that nothing is ever that serious. Kim is caring and important to me because I’ve never really had someone that cared like she does and she isn’t even family. Even if kids on this campus don’t notice it, she really does so much for us, and we wouldn’t have a lot of the things we have if it weren’t for her. When we all leave this place and move on, Kim will be someone that we remember.

Academic vocabulary week 11-health care
Americans should not have the right to free health care for many reasons. There are many ISSUES with immigrants paying taxes nowadays. It is not fair for some Americans to pay taxes and immigrants to get free health care while they aren't paying anything. There is EVIDENCE that it will never truly be free because people are paying through taxes anyways. In SUMMARY, not all Americans should have the right to free health care.
