The last movie I saw was...

The last movie I saw was the Godfather. I actually enjoyed watching both part one and part two of the Godfather because even though they were the mafia they cared about their family.

Journal Entry #1

My school experience this far has been okay. The first week of school started a little slow, but that only happened because we were just starting out school and that usually takes a while. But now we are kicking it in high speed for my classes I already turned in two essays.

Improving the Announcements

One way we can change the announcements is by put in things that interest the people of today. For example we can add a really poplar song and have the people watching the announcements vote on what song they want to listen to next time. Also adding a skit to the announcements to make it even more enjoyable then watching people just start at the screen and tell you what's going on.

School Days in a Nutshell!

The first few days of school for me have been okay. I was able to find my classes and finished my homework in class and turn in my papers on time. I'm really excited for the year to start so we can start doing projects in some of my other classes but for now it's pretty much okay.

Blog Post #1

For me summer started on the last day of school I came to school dressed up for opening night at Phoenix Comic-con. During opening night my family and I were able to wander around the con and buy things from the convention center. On the next day we came back and this time we were dressed in our old Fall Festival costumes but we tweaked them so they would look like a cosplay outfit. Later on at the con I went to a Host Club which is when you choose your favorite host and they will entertain and talk to you for an hour. Then on Sunday we came back for a third time to Comic-con but someone pulled the fire alarm and the con ended early. Throughout the month of June I went to basketball camp and in July I had volleyball camp.
