cheerleading is one of the greatest sports i have ever done. It is so great because being on a stage and seeing the judges faces, you know to do everything you were taught, and to do it right. For me, i am a perfectionist. If i do something wrong, i would get on myself and do it until i get it right. That's why i am a leader when it comes to stunting. when i go up and all the other flyers, i am the most reliable one known not to fall. Because if i do, i get in trouble more than any of the other flyers. If i don't, it's because one of the other flyers REALLY did something wrong. As a flyer i have to trust my bases. By that i mean to

year round school is a no no

          I think year round school is  bad because when  you have all of the breaks in  between, you might forget things acedemicly. For example, if they have a math test after there month long break off school, it won't improve the test scores because over the break they could have forgotten some of the things on the test "Many students wouldn't want to go to school year-round and would get tired of it, which would result in many drop outs." it says in an artical on the website pantagragh.com. I agree because if you have school all summer long then kids would soon get stressed and it would be stressful on the teachers.

     It's not effective, and it's more expensive to operate. It's been proven nationwide that it doesn't improve test scores." An article says in an (unknown) website. To be honest, I agree. If you are in school for the whole year, you would be learning new things and forgetting the old things. That is why it dosn't improve test scores.

        Another reason I think year round schools are a bad idea.

 dogs

dogs are loyal pets

but don't let them in the rain they will get wet

they are a man's best friend

you will love them and love them until the end

they are little or big

sometimes they are the size of a pig

they are the most of soft and fluffy

make sure you're not allergic, you will get stuffy

some dogs are as smart as humans 

he could probably be apart of the boats crewmen

dogs are amazing and so so fun

cats, move to the side because I know that dogs are number one!

year round school is bad

          I think year round school is  bad because when  you have all of the breaks in  between, you might forget things acedemicly. I also think that year round school is bad because people that have summmer camp can't do that because they are stuck doing things like school in the summer. IT also brings stress because of the amount of work you have to for the teachers. It also brings stress to the kids because they don't have time to chill out and kick back.

                                                               My Skinny iPad Mini
      "Are we going to somerset?" I asked my dad. It was just the start of my birthday and the reason I asked that question was because I was going shopping for my brand new iPod before my actual party!
"Yes we are going to somerset." My dad replied. 
  About five minutes later we pulled up in a gigantic packed parking lot with a big building that said "SOMERSET" in big fancy cursive letters. I started at the car door and climbed out. there was an employee standing next to my dad's car talking him into valet parking. Soon enough I could see the guy driving my dad's 2010 white Cadillac into the giant valet only parking space. About ten second later my dad and I walked inside of big fancy mall.

     "Excuse me, do you know where the apple store is my dad asked a woman with black hair and pail skin at the customer service desk."down by the Microsoft store and them turn to your left."

     My dad and I sped down to where the lady told us to go

      As soon as we got there I felt like was in heaven with so much technology around me. My dad and I walked up to a woman with dirty blond hair and what seemed like she had a good attitude .

  "How can I help you." She said.

   "I'm looking for an iPod for for her." He eye balled me in a you and you little ipod of yours cost a lot of money type of way.

The lady and my dad talked of what seemed like for ever. Finally my dad walked over to where the iPods were because I was by the iPods.

"They don't have any more iPods and I tried to get an ipad mini but the don't have that ethier." My dad said. My face went from the ends of my lips to my ears to the grumpy cat face. Right when we were about to walk out. Of the store I heard the lady's voice.

"Wait!" She blurted out. My dad and I walked back over to her. She looked at another employee. It was an old man with gray hairs and he had a smile as bright as the sun. The lady walked me over to him. He turned around with an ipad mini in his cold wrinkled hands.
" I have a granddaughter and her birthday is coming up so I need your help starting up this ipad for her." he said quietly and calmly. You dont have to rub it in my face that she gets an ipad and i don't alright old man? i thought angrily. he gave the slightily smaller ipad to me and we walked to the start up station and the lady told me what to do and how to activate the glimmering ipad mini. First I started with putting in and iCloud account. " I want you to put YOUR iCloud account on. The lady said. "I don't have and iCloud account." I said with sadness. Then I started to get a little suspicious. Why did the lady tell me to make and iCloud account for me? And why did they pick me to activate the ipad if it's not mine? I rember when my mom and dad got me a dsi xl for christamas when i was seven and they said that they probloby would not get me one when they did so now i thought they were going to do that again are going to do that same thing again

    Soon when we were done with the activation thingy stuff my dad,the old wrinkly man and the nice lady who helped with the actovation all looked at me with a smerk on every single one of there faces.

    " you know how I said that the ipad was for my granddaughter?" The wrinkly old man questioned. "Yeah." I replied. " well it's actually for you." The man smiled. 

   But I'm not his granddau-- THAT'S NOT THE POINT! I thought to my self so full of excitement.
  As my dad and I approched the cash register with the ipad in the bag wrapped around my wrist i started to think about all the amazing things i would do on it. download games and music and NOT have to share any part of my presonal ipad. And at times like this I want to thank steve jobs for making the best thing ever!
   After my dad finished paying we walked out the store and asked the same man who gave my dad the valet parking pass to drive my dad's car back to us and as soon as the man did that we walked out of the mall and drovae away in no time at all.

Birthday Party

today was the day. today was the best day of my life. Why you ask? We'll because I was turning ten!!! Turning ten in my family was awesome because I  finally get to be like my other cousins with double digits! As we packed up to leave I was prancing and dancing full of excitement but I was also a little angry because my Little cousin Chloe was celebrating her birthday with me! And it was my birthday party. I was also very happy because I was going to have my birthday at zap zone!!!! When we soon appeared in the parking lot of zap zone I swung the car door open and sprinted inside even though my mom tells me not to run across parking lots, but that's not the point

Zip Line

                                Zip Line!

     One sunny day at my one week sleep away camp I was probably the most exited person in my group! We were going to the zip line! "How much longer until we get to base camp?!?!" I said to my counselor Freddy.Base camp was where the zip line,the rock wall,the horse camp and the big swig was."About two more minutes." He said in excitement.

Two minutes later we were there!Just seeing it made me want to climb up the stairs and jump off! "Put on your harness and helmet everyone." Another counselor named Daniel said.I put on my brown harness and blue helmet as fast as a lightening bolt.It was a really confusing on where to put my legs in.Up the stairs to the zip line I went. Creak,creak creak the stairs creaked.The more creaking I heard the more nervous I got. I got this.chickening out is not an option! I thought to my self. Soon I was at the top of the steps. "Don't look down." I said. 

Daniel clipped me to the zip line and told me to go when ever I'm ready I could go. I started leaning forward and my feet were off the ground!Ahhhhhhhhhh! I screamed. The very beginning it was really scary but soon it was awesome.I was doing it,I was actually doing it! I felt like I was flying in mid air! When I got off all of my friends were laughing and telling me I did a good job. I had a lot of fun that day and that week I hope I could go again next year.
