Do Now 11/30

The first person I am thankful for is my mother. She works five days a week for us and does her best to please us. She pays for almost everything and is an amazing mother. My mother raised us well and is smart of the decisions she makes. I truly look up to her. Without her I will not be the person I am today.

I am also thankful for my grandmother. She cooks for us every single day. If you think my brother, sister and I are a handful, my grandma watches over three other younger ones. She cleans around the house, drives us everywhere, and pays for the groceries. We would be lost without her.

I'm very thankful for my best friend. She's by my side within a second when I need her. We laugh together and cry together. Our list of inside jokes can go on forever and ever. She is one of my favorite people. I have her back and she has mine. I wouldn't trade her for the world.

Do Now 11/9

           Over our short four day break I sat at home and watched movies and shows on Netflix. I finished up season one of The Vampire Diaries. Alongside of my lazy day, I was babysitting my younger cousins. Those were what took up my Thursday and Friday. Babysitting and Netflix.

        On Saturday I went to watch the last home football game. They lost the last five seconds by one point, unfortunately.That night, my friend Bella and I went to watch Paranormal Activity. In my opinion the movie was terrible. It wasn't scary at all. It consisted of jump scares and a creepy black figure. My Sunday was filled with little children dressed as knights and princesses. My family and I went to Medieval Times in Lyndhurst to celebrate my little cousin's fifth birthday. The show was lovely, the food was great and the knight gave me and my sister flowers.
