Kai's+Journal

=Kai's Journal= My English grade is really bad because I didn't know what to do because they had already been half way done with what they were doing. I also started falling behind when I didn't do my work in the beginning of the new semester. I need to do my work and homework in this class. I need to organize my work a finish it to turn it in when it’s do. I should do my work the night its do and do what I'm supposed to do with it instead of having my mother e-mail the homework I finish. I think the poem means that trees in the fall start bright colors like gold. The title means the certain yellow leafs on a tree can't stay forever. It cannot stay because yellow leafs only stay in the fall. They cut their hair to symbolize that they're starting their lives over. Johnny cut his hair because he became wanted in his old life for killing someone. Pony-boy cut his hair because Johnny told him to. Since johnny was wanted he decided to bleach his hair. My semester 2 grades are better than my 1 semester grades in some classes. My grades fell behind when I got a few new teachers and didn't know what they were talking about until I caught up. In my english class I have drop from an A to a D because of one assignment that I did not know how to do. I hope my grade will go up after this huge in class assignment on Thursday. My best class is PE because that is the only class that you can run around and have fun a lot.

Last weekend I went to four parties and they were all fun. I ate a lot of food and my stomach really hurt after the second party because I forgot I had three more to go to. When I forgot about the three parties I thought I wasn't going to eat the rest of the day so I ate as much as I could. My first party was more like a reunion because my whole family was there. I brought a couple friends just for fun because most of my family is either kids are 3 or 4 years old or 16 to 17 years old. The second party was for a friend who just wanted to throw a party. I had lots of fun there because they had it at the park unlike the first party which was around a canyon where my aunt, uncle, step-grandma, and grandpa live.

In P.E we have to run a mile or two. I don't know if we're running one or two because some people say they ran the mile and other people say we run two. It doesn't really matter to me because I know I can get a good mile time even if its 2 miles. I will be running with Michael. I’m glad it is a short day because primetime gets to go to the park every Wednesday and Friday. We don’t go every Wednesday because our staff are worried about the other kids who go to the park from our school. I ran with Michael and our other friend Nick. I got the mile time of 7:08 which is worse than my first time of 6:50. I went ahead of them most of the mile but I also waited for them to. At the end of the mile I started to sprint because I wanted to get a good time. After we just played basketball until it was time to change back into our school clothes. The rest of the day I was really tired and wanted to go to sleep but luckily I have P.E close to the end of the day. When the day is over I went to the park and ate a California burrito that my friend bought for me.

For my seat change I want to sit right where I am right now. I don't want to move because I don't see a problem with my seat. I like where I am and moving me anywhere else could more disruptions than there already is in this class. In my next class I have to present something that didn't study for and will probably not get a good grade that I needed because I have an F in his class that I need to bring up or else I might fall back into 7th grade. If I have to redo do all my classes I would be so mad. I would rather go to summer school than stay back in 7th grade. I can't wait for the summer because I am going to have so much fun doing whatever I want for 3 months. I will probably meet up with friends at the park a few times a week or go to the boys and girls club if there's nothing to do at home.

The difference of the book and the movie is that a lot of dialog was added. The movie showed us how great his hair was and how it was important to him. In the book it didn't say that it that the Soc’s and the Greasers were huge groups of 20 or 30. I didn't know most of the Greasers lived together in one house. I saw in the movie how bad Johnny's burns were compared to how I thought they looked.

Magic Word: Path
We had to do a summary about an article we chose. I chose an article called "Hearing Held on Bid to Form First College Athletes Union, QB speaks". This article is about students at college playing football. The article talks about students paying for college with money earned from football. The students are practicing for football to get money for college, but they are not focused on school education because the training. Teachers are saying they are students first athletes second. This is weird to me because in our P.E we were told that football players our age need a 2.0 GPA to play football. I currently have a 1.5 for my GPA. My grades bounce around because I am raising the F's but grades in my other classes are dropping. A grade I know I can bring up is my P.E grade. My P.E grade dropped because I wasn't filling out papers that were due. Now that we're back to physical activity I can bring my grade up easily.

We have a new activity called Newsela. Newsela is a website that lets you read an article and then do a quiz on it. Its not that hard because when ur taking the quiz the article is still up so you look over it while you're taking the quiz. The quizzes are only four questions long.

I got a 0 because I wasn't here for the day we started the teacher story. I didn't know what to do for it so I couldn't do the assignment. I don't know what the Language skill reflection so I didn't do that either and got a 0 on that to. My scores could be better if I paid attention to what we were doing instead of talking. The grade is fair I didn't do the assignments so I deserved a bad grade.

The blog post I read looked like it was rushed and last minute. It had capitalizations in the wrong places, and a lack of periods. I think it needed a grammar check. I would go over and edit the post if it were my post.

2. The speaker is talking about his mood. It is all about yourself as one. 3. He says the world he lives in. He might be a little conceited. He his telling readers that the best thing is yourself.

Today I went to the counselor today and she was really nice with the issue I had in my 2nd period class. The issue was that our teacher was being unfair with seating arrangements. The issue could have been resolved if he had switched a student next to the seat we wanted her in. A side problem was we were getting in trouble for things and other people did the same thing and didn't get in trouble. The counselor couldn't switch the seats herself so we were told just to ask at a different time with a different tone. I didn't make a time today because he is still bothering me.

In P.E my team has won all of games except for one. The one we lost was because I split my knee two years ago and anytime I run to much, get hit in the knee, or push my running limits.

I know my prefixes and suffixes very well. On the test I got 2 wrong because I spelled one wrong. I am very familiar with un, pre, less, and able. I started to learn about those in the 3rd grade and even back then I was still good at it. I didn't do anything for the holiday because my house is kinda boring until we start joking around with each other. I didn't go to sleep until 5:00 am so i'm really tired and just want to sleep all day. While I was staying up I started to get tired until I drank tons of soda. I was just watching youtube videos all morning until my mom woke up then I pretended to go to sleep so she wouldn't notice. I always go to sleep late because i'm a night time person. The daytime is boring too bright and hot. Unlike the night when it is cooled off and dark.

The book I am reading is called "Half Moon" by Eoin Colfer. In the book I am reading I was at the part where a boy named Fletcher Moon who is described as the youngest detective in the world he even has a silver plated badge to prove it. Over 11 years he has had a good run until a student asks for his help on a crime and ends up having his prized badge stolen from him. He assumes that it was stolen by the most notorious crime family called the "Sharkeys". While he goes out and looks for clues he becomes falsely accused for one of the biggest crime in the city.

During testing period I was really confused because my computer had to do a restart in the middle of my test and I thought it wasn't going to save all the work I did. After it restarted the only thing that was messed up was the question I was working on. I couldn't do one question because the sound on the computer needed to be low but I couldn't change the sound until I exit the test. I thought today was going to be a testing day but it wasn't there is one more test but I guess were doing it tomorrow or on Friday. I'm not really worried about the test because it doesn't go against our grades. Our test next year will go to our grade thats the one I will try on.
