The Simpsons
May 29th, 2008 by davidsesin
Since I was small these yellow, funny, and big eyed people got my attention. They seemed really funny, so one day I started watching them. At the beginning they were really funny, but there were some jokes I never understood. One day as usual I was watching in it when suddenly my mom passed by. She shrieked as she saw me watching it. ” David that is not for kids!” So she quickly changed the channel. I was really scared at the reaction she had when she saw me watching it, because for me it had already become normal and usual to watch it. Some time later I asked her why she took it off, and she told me that, the show was only for teenagers and adults. Then when I turned nine she said she would let me watch the program of the yellow people again.
I was not interested any more on it any more, but one day I was switching the channels and they were showing the “yellow people”, I watched it and I understood the jokes better. Soon I started watching it a lot because it was more funny than before, and with time I stopped calling them the “yellow people” and started calling them The Simpsons. When I turned 12 or 13, I don’t remembered, I watched them less because they were not as funny as before, and they showed repeated episodes so I stopped watching them. For some time I watched other shows and other stuff in the television. Suddenly The Simpsons Movie came out to the theaters. I was really anxious to watch it because I remembered I liked the show a lot. So I watched it, and it was funnier than all of the episodes I had ever watched. Soon after that movie I started watching the show again. A new season had began so their were new episodes and they were funnier than the old episodes. So now a days I see The Simpsons when I have time, but I haven’t seen them recently these days or months.

Geography Fair
May 22nd, 2008 by davidsesin
Yes! Today is a great day, I’ve been waiting for this moment all day. Now I am really close to it. I’m going to an awesome event. There are many reasons it is awesome. First of all and most importantly, because there is free food from many different countries. Second of all you get to tease and challenge 7th graders by asking them hard questions, and take their food after that. I remember when I was in 7th grade I had the Geography fair too. And I also got the country I less expected. I didn’t even know it existed! Well it was pretty nice to get the country Moldova because I learned many new things. The hard thing was to get the information. I mean this country is so unknown that my spell checker, checks the word as if it was wrong! But there was many good things out of that. Sometimes when I was writing my report I couldn’t find information. The good thing about not finding information, was that when I told my teacher about it she said it didn’t matter and I didn’t have to put that information. The most challenging things were writing the report and then giving the oral report. What I didn’t like about this geography fair was that you had to work really hard on the report and when it came to the day of the fair you had to organize your booth and come dressed up, but then when people pass by they barely notice your report. I got kind of disappointed when people just came to your booth and they didn’t even notice the report. Something that I felt was really funny was that all the people ask the same questions. ” Did you like your country?”, ” What was the most interesting thing about it?”, ” What was the most challenging thing?”. And if people didn’t ask those questions they would just come into your booth get a flag and food and leave. Which I thought was kind of awkward. The next day you have to wake up and you are really tired. The good thing about the second day was that we had a grape fight when the teacher was not watching. Also the good thing about the second day was that we leaved early and I went to a friend’s house. The geography fair is a really cool fair, which I learned a lot from it. I think it was a really good idea to have this fair, because it teaches you how to work independently, and also you learn a lot of research skills.

50 cent is a great rapper, but some people don’t know his real story. His real name is Curtis Jackson, 50 was born in Queens, New York. 50 cent was born on July 6th, 1975. He grew on a broke home with his hustler mother and dad. His mother was murdered only when he was 8 and soon after that his dad left him. He was left in hands of his grandmother who took care of him. As a teenager he followed his mother’s steps and became a hustler selling crack on the streets. He soon started encountering with undercover police men, and was sent to jail for 2 years. After that he started singing hip- hop and met Jam Master Jay, who gave him a beat CD and told him to rap over it. 50 cent did as he was told and when he gave back the CD Jam Master Jay was impressed. 50 cent signed a contract, but it wasn’t so good. Later on he was affiliated with Track- Masters, which resulted really good because Jay-z and Naz were also affiliated. After that Track- Masters affiliated him to Columbia were he did 2 albums. The albums were called Thugs love and How to Rob. After the How to Rob album was released 50 cent was stabbed, but it wasn’t anything grave. Then on May 24th 2000 before Columbia released his new album the Power of the dollar he was shot 9 times! 1 shot went threw his cheek the other one in his hand and the rest were on his legs and thighs. He barely survived and after Columbia heard the news they didn’t want to be affiliated with 50 cent anymore. 2 years later 50 cent continued with rapping with Jay-z Lloyd banks. After a while Eminem a really recognized rapper said in a radio station that he admired 50 cent. So Eminem and Dr. Dre affiliated 50 cent and carefully worked on his new album Get Rich or Die Tryin’.

Manuel Antonio

On Wednesday the 8th grade trip took place. These field trips are not common trips, because they only happen once a year. They are normally about 3 days long. Commonly these trips are educational and we have to write on a journal the things we learned, but this time it was different. Since this year we graduate and we move on to high school, it was a fun trip. We didn’t have to write on a journal or learn anything it was all fun. We had to be at school at 6:30 am, I woke up at 6:20, I was really scared I was not going to get their on time, so I took a fast bath and then they took me to school. I live a bit far from my school, but surprisingly there was no traffic at all, so I got there at 6:30. Most of the people had not arrived to school yet so I was really relieved I did not come late. One by one the people came, and after a while we were all there. The bus ride was really calm, everything was peaceful, and their was no trouble at all, until we were half way their…. There was a weird sound that came from the motor of the bus, the bus driver ignored it and soon it was making noise again. The bus driver got out of the bus to see what was the problem and this fire belt, or something similar was damaged. He said that we couldn’t continue because that part of the engine was really important. Suddenly another bus popped out of nowhere and offered us he could take us to the place we had to go. We went to this canopy called ”Superman”. They put this suite that holds your legs and body, because you go on this line as if you were superman. It was kind of scary at the beginning when the canopy guides were about to launch you off. It felt unstable, but then it was not scary at all and was really good. After that we went to a pretty nice hotel, and in there they gave us our roommates. My roommates were really cool and we spend a good time. The next day we went rafting! Rafting was my favorite part of the trip because it was really fun and fast. The guide gave us the instructions of what to do in case you fall, before we went rafting. After that we were all set, and we went rafting. It was really funny to see the people falling in the rapids. I never fell in a rapid; I just threw my self out of the boat. Something really funny happened during the rafting. My friend fell off the boat in a rapid, he was “drowning”. He was not really drowning but he looked like it so I supposed I should help him. I did something the guide warned not to do, jump off the boat to save somebody. Any ways, to make the long story short, I went to “save” him but instead of saving him I saved his rowing utensil. After that I got back on the boat and helped him up. After the fun rafting experience, we went to the beach. It was a really nice beach because it had big waves and it was nice and hot. In there we played Football, and it was really fun. The only bad thing about it is that many people had injuries because we were playing tackle Football. The next day was the last day of our trip. I was really sad because it passed really fast and it was nearly time to go. What we did was go to Manuel Antonio National Park, and do community service. What we did was only rake leaves off a path. After the leaf raking we went back to the beach. We played more Football and also went “body surfing” on the beach. After the beach we ate in a really good restaurant and then we left to the hotel. There we took a bus back to school. Overall this was the best school trip I’ve gone, and it would be really fun to do these activities again.
