Planning Your Game ( Got The Title From Genebeef ) .

Um ; I played a game & it was really boring & it made no sense at all  & I think that they should take that game off cause it makes no sense & its getting annoying ! . The title is The Snoring Game . Ughh ; Thats like a weird name . Haa ; just playing ; the game was boring ; but it was okay I guess ; but like all you had to do was just make the elephant awake & things like that basically . So yeaa . Thats mostly about a game that ive never reallly played in my life ! .. (: .

Bee's .

For past couple of days ; we have been watching a movie about bee's disappearing like for no reason . They tried to find many ways why the bee's have just been disappearing out of no where . I was like OMG ; Why are they disappearing . & they had said that they found many other reasons why ; but that they werent the reasons to be exact . Those were just options & thats just mostly it (: .

My Topic : Bullying /: .

I chose this topic because there's A LOT of FREAKIN' Bullying STILL going on in this world . Its really STUPID to be bullying somebody that isn't even doing anything to you . & I feel really bad for the person who is getting bullied because they dont even deserve to get treaten like that in the first place . It makes no sense  . Um ; there is a lot of links were I got my information from . There's ; http://www.youtube.com/  ; http://www.radicalparenting.com/2011/02/23/first-step-to-stop-bullying-tell-someone/ & many more .

Darfur Is Dying /: .

I learned M A N Y things while watching the movie & playing the game . Like for instance ; I learned that the people on Darfur are getting treat like nobody on this world should get treaten . They should have WAY more respect then they are given . & Especially this has been going on since 2003 /: . THAT SUCKS BIG TIMEEEE /: . I think the Most Effective Way to teach is The Movie because it shows ACTUAL people from Darfur & they share their stories about their life's . & Also because it shows ACTUAL footage & all those ACTUAL things ! . I Think The President allows us do write letters to him because he wants to probably know what we think of this & give him some ideas so he help the Darfur people . Yes ; it inspired me BIG TIME cause now , I think more about these people & how they are getting killed & beat ; & raped . They don't deserve to get treaten like this .

Children Of Heaven (:

 Children Of Heaven is about this little boy name Ali , Who misplaced / lost his sister's shoes after just  fixing them . He gets like SUPER scared & hesitates to tell his sister about what had happened to her shoes . He tells her & she gets all sad & Ali said that he would share his shoes with his sister as long as it takes to get his sister's shoes back . He finds out that there is a race & that 3rd place prize  is giving out a NEW pair of shoes . So he's definite that he is gonna win but , he ends up coming in 1st instead .
 Yes , It fitted quite the same as the " Single Story " . Umm ; It Fitted like how the women wore the scarfs over their hair . & Also ; The way some people were very poor . & They couldnt afford much . Someays it didnt fit was like , some of the Arabian people lived in REALLY BIG houses " Downtown " & ima be straight up honest , I though that Iran & all them other country's full of muslims & all that would be poor & not have alot of opportunities like we do in the US . I learned MANY things about Muslims & how they treat each other & how their religion is . I think that Ali is a very kind & gentle person . I Know b/c he acted like he was .
 Ummm ; Here's a link about  http://www.cultureofiran.com/ <------ , This page is important because it talks about Iranian people & their culture .

Danger Of A Single Story .

To have a single story means when people / someone assumes something about you or a group by seeing what you like ; dress like ; & anything like that .  Ummmm ; People make assumptions everyday about me & my family . Like I was walking to H-E-B with my Mom & I'm dark skinned & my mom is White complected . ; & We were walking by these white people & I heard thems saying " She must be adopted ; cuz she looks nothing like that other lady . " . Ummm ; I've Heard alot of people's story & how people assume things so easy .

Cyberbully ; The Movie .

Ummmm ; Ive learned many things about Cyber Bully the past week ! . Including like what I need to do if I AM a victim of bulling ; Mmmmm , & Like also what I need to do if  I see another person getting bullied any kind of way . No , I haven't bullied somebody online cause its just a waste of time to be mean to somebody who didn't even deserve it in the first place ! . Yes , Ive seen people getting bullied ; Like in Elementary School ; I think in likee 3rd Grade ; There was this girl that got picked on by older kids . She was obese for her age . She had NO friends . She got picked on at school ; & when she walked home , I tried sticking up for her , but I couldnt because I was little & I was useless at the time . One day , she didnt come to school ; & I wanted to have lunch with her ; I asked my teacher where she was & She said that " She's Gone ! " . Ever since then , I feel really bad because I couldve done something when I had the chance . ! & I'm pretty sure that once in my life , I got bullied . But I have no idea . ! . Umm , I could likee tell the teacher , stand up for the victim & tell an adult ! . To prevent Taylor from getting bullied ; She could of logged of the Clicksters likee her Momma told her & Also , She could of blocked the " JAMES " person . ! .

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart !

                                                                  By : Yona Zeldis McDonough .                                                                                             More than 200 years ago , there was a little boy who learned too play musical instrument at the age of 3 ! It was called the Clavier , which was an old  fashioned stringed instrument that also had a keyboard . By the time he was five , he was composing BEAUTIFUL music all by himself . At e8 , he learned too play two more instruments , the Violin & the Organ . His father was a musician too . He wanted everyone too pay attention too his talented son . But sometimes people back then , had a hard time believing that a small little boy could be very talented . & they also thought that his father written the music for him . Or that he wasnt a child at all , but a small adult .  Papa Leopold Mozart was a very strict Dad . He was a composer & violinist in Salzburg in Austria . Everyday , papa leopold came home everyday from work , teaching his son & daughter how too play instruments ! & Wolfgang , he was more talented then his sister . Wolfgang was born on January 27th , 1756 , In Salzburg Austria , 6 children had came before him , so he was the baby of the family . But Wolfgang & his big sister , Maria Anna , lived past their first birthdays . Back then when babies or young children go sick , there were no medicines like there are today . So sadly , it was common for children too die .  Wolfgang had a long name , so they called him Wolfie for short . Later on , Wolfgang became SUPER famous & even met Empress Marie Theresa ! He & his wife , Constanze , had 6 children , tough only 2 sons , Karl Thomas & Franz Xaver , lived more than a year . him & his family was a very happy family & enjoyed life . Until one day a strange man came by the door , He was wearing nothing but BLACK , he had dropped off a letter that was unsigned . It said too write a Requiem , a Requiem is a peice of music composed to honor somebody who has died . & the letter promised Mozart alot of money , & they needed that too because they hardly had any money ! Mozart worked hard & hard for the past several months , but everytime he tried , his health go worse & worse . Soon , he came too the point were he could not get out of bed . On December 4th 1971 , he asked his friends too join him at his bedside / bed . Together , all of them sang parts of the Requiem . On December 5th Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart died . He was only 35 . They Requiem remained unfinished , though the pats he didnt finished are known as the beautiful music he ever wrote . He was buried at Marx Cemetery , & there was no grave stone or mark too  were he was buried . In 1856 in 100 years after Mozart had been born, there were celebrations in Salzburg.Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart wrote more than 600 works this was a great number for any composer. It was more astonishing when we think about how young he was when he died. Here are some of his works : 41 Symphonies , 27 Piano Concertos , 5 Viloin Concertos , 27 Concert Arias , 23 String Quarters , 18 Masses , & 22 Operas . Thank You !
