A Slice of My Life

Image
An upcoming event that is coming up this weekend is my baby brothers' birthday! You may know about him I have talked about him in my blog before multiple times. I will recap a little bit about him so I can save the time of you going back and recalling all the blogs I metioned him in. So my baby brother is a little 2 year old, curly haired, crazy, sand loud little baby. He has so much character and he is really loving. He will make you laugh at any given moment (guaranteed). He is very athletic and  very smart. He gave me the nicknames "Lala" and "Lyla". He mostly calls me "Lala". I got that nickname due to him not being able to say my name "Laysa" pronounced "Lyza". I love him with all my heart and soul and I cannot imagine life without him So, back to the point my baby brother is turning 3 this weekend! And I am so excited because he is finally turning 3, I feel like he has been 2 forever. I'm also excited for his birthday b

The Dreamer- Pam Munoz Ryan and Peter Sis

Image
The book " The Dreamer" is about a little boy named Neftali and he has a very big imagination, he likes collecting things most people wouldn't, and he has a gift for writing. Although, his father believes he is sick in the head, he is not strong enough to be called a boy, and he will not amount to anything in life. Neftali is a lot like his deceased mother and that is part of why his father gets so short with him. He believes living life in pure profundity is the way to go, But according his father that is the complete opposite. In order to see how his life turned out you'll have to read the book yourself. I would recommend this book to people who like fiction and really relatable books. I would also suggest this book to people who would want to read soemething they have never read before. 

My Review On The Movie Freedom Writers

Image
The movie ¨Freedom Writers" is based of a book written by Erin Gruwelll and the Freedom Writers, the movie and the book is about a  teacher who is hired at a racially divided Los Angeles school and has a class of freshmen way below their grade level set point . Most with their lives at risk, others in gangs, and some who have already been to juvy more than twice. She perseveres with them to get them to their point, the class starts off rough but she does not give up. She explains that there is more meaning to them than they think. She gives them book that they can relate to and she takes them on trips that she has purchased with her own money. Once the students start noticing that they are making a change in the world, and their teacher won't be there with them for Junior and Senior year they find away to fight for their teacher to move up with them all their high school years.  I really enjoyed this movie, I would recomend this movie to people who like realistic fiction, t

What Upcoming Events I Am Excited For!

So to start, the most recent event I am excited for is the 8th grade Six Flags Trip! I am so excited I have never been to Six Flags before but this will be Mia first time and I hope it goes great. Everyone describes the rides and everything about it and it just gets me more excited. The following event is the 8th grade Dinner Dance. Basically, the Dinner Dance is a place where the sooo. to be graduating 8th graders go to dine and dance the night away. I am so excited for that because I really love food and I know there is about to be some of that really good food that you can not just go to the store and buy. I know there is not going to be that "family birthday" party food, where they have grill hotdogs and burgers and they bring that big Walmart  family size bag of chips such as Doritos, Lays, or Cheetos. No,no, compare that to the food that is going to be at that Dinner Dance. The Dinner Dance food is going to be so much better! There is going to be that catering food li

Why is Your Mom So Wonderful?

Image
I am greatful for many things and it is hard to just list them and not being able to explain the meaning of why I am thankful for them so today I have chosen one thing I am thankful for and go into full detail about it and so today's thankful blog is about my mom. I am thankful for my mother for many reason. So many I can't list them all without adding more and forgetting a few things. So to start, I am thankful for my mom because my mom and my siblings have been through a lot together she was our support and the person that kept us all together as one and strong. She is absolutely gorgeous, she has a beautiful smile and very eye catching eyes. She is not only beautiful on the outside but she is beautiful on the inside. She is very kind, intellectual, and happy. She looks for the positivity in everything, she makes you laugh no matter what the state you're in. She just wants to make sure that the people around her are happy. Now this might sound a little weird but my mom

What I Did Over Spring Break

Image
I really don't do much when it comes to breaks this year due to my mom having a new job. Although, I did read, watched my favorite shows on tv, eat delicious food, go to stores with my mom, and play outside. When next year comes my mom said that we will be able to travel on the breaks because she will be promoted soon. I can't wait because I only have traveled to Wisconsin and Florida and that was when I was very young like 5 or 6 so I eally don't remember much. If I were able to pick where we can travel I would say Florida, Wisconsin, New York, and Texas. We would only travel in state because half of my family is in the U.S. some are in Florida, Texas, and New York. I would like to travel to Wisconsin because it is closer and I hear good things about especially about Wisconsin Dells. Now I have a question for you my reader who is reading this very blog post right now. Where would you like to travel to? 

I Am The Messenger - Markus Zusak

Image
"I Am The Messenger" is a book about a guy who is 19 years old and does not live an eventful life. His life is pretty boring he is a cab driver, he plays card games (which to mention he is not really good at) almost every night, and he likes his best friend who he will never get. Soon his life gets eventful when he is caught between a bank robbery. That is when it all starts. Soon after the incident happened he gets a playing card in the mail it lists a few things. (I will not tell you because you need to read the book to find out.) After he figures out what the things stand for, he receives many more playing cards until he has all the aces to each suit.  I would suggest this book to people who like realistic fiction and mystery. Overall, the book was really enjoyable and I could not stop reading it, if you do think about reading the book I recommend that you do it in a time that you read when your entire day is free and all you can do is relax and read for awhile becaus
