AHW-Skiing

Today I learned how to stop, and turn on my skis. I fell down a total of 4 or 5 times, which is pretty good for someone who never skied before. When I got off the charter bus I got my ski stuff and went into the lodge to get my skis and boots. I first had to fill out a slip for the ski rental and the boots. Then I had to put them on which was kind of complicated. Then I had to go to my first ski lesson. It was on the smallest slope of all of them and we had to ride a 'magic carpet' to get to the top. We were learning how to stand correctly on the skis first then how to bend your knees and made a wedge if you want to stop. At the beginning I wasn't that good but I got better and now I'm pretty good. The only problem I have is that I can't turn my direction very well. By the way to clarify I'm turning before I'm moving. I can't wait until I go again next week!

Snow Club

Tomorrow I'm going to go skiing for Snow club. Snow club is a club where you go to either go skiing or snowboarding on Pine Knob. I never went skiing or snowboarding in my whole life so I'm really excited for this trip tomorrow. I packed everything I need for skiing in a big gray bag. I honestly can't wait! But I'll have to!

Open House Intro (AHW)

I walked through the doors of the school clutching my black spiral science notebook. Today was Open house and I was so excited to give a tour to incoming 3, 4 and 5th graders, who might go to BCS next year. I went into the hallway and got my bright yellow, 'Ask Me About BCS!' sticker with my name printed on it as neat as a typewriter. I went to my locker bay and tryied to open my locker. Click, click, click, swish. When the lock as I spun the dial 3 times and lifted it up hoping it would work. It did. Just as smooth as fudge melting in your mouth as you bite into it. I went to the front and saw Ellie with her sister.
"Hi Ellie." I called.

"Oh, Hi Shin Be, I brought my science notebook." She showed me her black composition notebook.

"Great, lets go work on it." I replied.

I walked with her to the lockers again. We were going to check we had the same things in our notebook. We also had to make the data chart.

We sat down on the scratchy carpet and I got out my 4 rulers and carefully chose which one I wanted to use. In the end I chose my blue metallic ruler. I let Ellie use my blue plastic ruler. We made our data table and as soon as we finished; "Hi Shin Be, hi Ellie."

I jerked my head up in surprise.

"Oh hi Ania." I replied.

I walked into school a dozen things on my mind. Just like a animal in the wild running from its predator, it has so many things to worry about. I was worrying about my science test scores, my math test scores, whether I was going to do good on the social studies test and whether I was going to have any more test this week. I was so occupied I ran into a 3rd grader. Well the 3rd grader actually ran into me. But he didn't even say sorry. How rude. I walked into my locker bay surprised at how quiet it was. No offense to anyone in my locker bay but it gets pretty crowded and noisy. I quickly put my stuff in my locked expect for my iPad, my book and my pencil case with a picture of Snoopy the dog on it. 

"Anyer!" I heard the voice of Vivian call out. I walked into the hall and saw Vivian.

"Oh hi Shin Be, have you seen Ania? She was walking with me one minute and the she was gone."

"Nope haven't seen her." I replied.

"Thanks, I'll check her locker." Vivian said back.

I looked back into the hallway and and saw Ania there. 

"Hi Ania, did you know Vivian was looking for you?" I asked

"Really I didn't know, I just stopped to talk to my friends." Ania said sounding mildly surprised.

"Fa, la, la, Jingle Bells-" I sung very merrily.

"Vroom, VROom, VROOM! Went the vacuum cleaner.

I was decorating our Christmas tree with my dad on the day of thanksgiving. I hung up a silver, sparkly, acorn and hung it right in the middle of the tree. 

"That looks great, what do you think?" My dad shouted over the noise of the vacuum.

"I think that look fine to me, can we start cooking thanksgiving lunch?" I asked, very excited to cook the stuffing. Kind of. Not really, I would just help. But it would still be fun. 

"Okay, let's go get everything out." My dad replied.

"Yes!!" I said exclaimed. I could barley wait until I sat down to eat the delicious feast that was thanksgiving dinner. 

I ran into the bathroom to wash my hands 2 times, just to be sure. I raced back into the kitchen and said: 

"Can I cut up the mushroom?" I begged. I loved hearing the squishy sound of the knife cutting the little pieces of mushroom.

"Sure, but don't cut yourself." My dad warned me.

"I know, I'll be careful." I said back knowing that's what he said to me every time I picked up a knife to cut food.

My teeth:

I woke up still very, very tired. I slowly turned my head towards the faint glowing red light of my alarm clock. It read: 6:43am. I switched off my alarm clock and went to the kitchen to eat. But then when I took a bite of my oatmeal I realized that I teeth were aching from the visit to the orthodontist😭.  My teeth were so sore I couldn't even eat a bite of oatmeal! Oatmeal is soooooooo soft, but I couldn't even chew that. All through the day I was very hungry because it took a long time just to eat 2 small beef pancakes with veggies. When I got home I ate half of my leafy over lunch then worked on my science and social studies tests.

I was at the orthodontist's office sitting in one of the plastic chairs with earbuds glued in my ears. I was breathing in deeply smelling the gross, yet intriguing smell of the dentist. I was on my dad shiny white Iphone 5s. I was watching a movie and waiting until my orthodontist came out. It was so long I started to get super tired and slowly, slowly my eyes started to close. I jerked my head straight up, as if I just had a drink from a highly caffeinated soda. I saw my dad had just tapped me to let me know that I had to go in to my orthodontists office. I slowly took out my earbuds and took off my heavy, puffy purple coat. I walked into her office while she asked me 

"How was you're thanksgiving?" She asked me.
"It was fine. I replied. How was yours?"
"Oh it was great, thanks for asking."

Later I got some blue rubber bands to move my teeth closer together when I got my 4 adult teeth pulled out. They're kind of tight but they look like this: 

 

 

The blue rubber bands are only on the bottom teeth.
