Journal Entry 7: Three Little Piggies :)

This is a retold story of "The Three Little Pigs" by an unknown author. Once upon a time there were three little piggies that live on the street together. One day the oldest piggy said to the other piggies "lets build our own house before winter comes" or they will be freezing outside the street. So the first little piggy built her house with grass because she did not want to waste a lot of time on building her house. The second little piggy built her house with cardboard because she was also lazy like the first piggy. The last little piggy built her house with metal because she thinks that metal can last forever. One day a big, hungry wolf came to the first little piggy's house and said "I am a ninja and I will kick your house, HEEY YA!" The first piggy's house got destroyed so the first piggy ran to the second piggy's house. The big, hungry wolf came to the second piggy's house and said "I am a ninja and I will kick your house, HEEY YA!" Then the house got destroyed so both piggies ran to the last piggy's house. The big, hungry wolf came to the last piggy's house and said "I am a ninja and I will kick you house, HEEY YA!" The last piggy's house wasn't destroyed so the wolf try again and again but the house never got ruin so the wolf finally gave up. So all three piggies lived happily ever after like all fairytales.

Jounal Entry 6: Imagine a Place :)

It was an cold freezing night when I was about to go home but I accidentally went on the wrong bus and it led me to a desolated town that I was not familiar with. When I came off of the bus I had to find a place to stay immediately since I was freezing in the cold weather. I saw a fancy sign a few blocks away from me, it says "Bed and Breakfast." I went to look through the window, it looked like a nice and peaceful place to stay. I saw alot of people in the lobby, not like the street outside since it was empty. I could hear people laughing joyfully and talking in the lobby. I could also see that pets were welcomed in the place because there were dogs and cats playing together happily. On top of the counter there were yellow flowers in a white shiny vase and also a bowl of peppermint flavored candies to take. Next to the counter were three golden colored elevators. I also saw a white comfy sofa where there were people sitting on while watching the television. The wall and floor looked really fancy because the wall had an attractive pattern and the floor seemed smooth to walk on. That place seemed welcoming so I stayed at "Bed and Breakfast" that night.

Journal Entry 5: Advice :)

Dear Stephanie Chen,
 I am Alfonso (a boy for sure) from the book, Elements of Literature. I like this girl at my school called Sandra but I am not sure what to do to make her like me. I hope that you can give me some advices or you can help me choose some of my ideas I thought of. Here are some of my ideas I would like to share with you. My first idea is that I might try to fix up my crooked teeth and color my hair to look better. My second idea is that I might help her out more so she will think I am a very generous and kind person. My third idea is to take her out on a bike ride but I might have some problem with that because my bike has a broken chain and my brother, Ernie doesn't really want to lend me his bike. So which idea do you suggest the best or do you want to give me your own advice? PLEASE HELP ME AS SOON AS YOU SEE THIS.

Sincerely,

Alfonso

Journal Entry 4: Girls V Boys :)

I think that girls and boys are fundamentally different. The difference between girls and boys is that girls act more mature than boys, more quiet, not violent and girls don't blurt out things without thinking about it. Boys are more childish, more noisy, like to humiliate themselves, act more violent than girls, and boys blurt out things without thinking about it. The reason that I think girls and boys act differently is because girls and boys have different horomones, so it affects their thoughts and actions. I think that the differences between girls and boys will change over time because in the past when girls and boys were little kids, there weren't much differences because boys and girls mostly act the same and think the same, but when boys and girls are teens their thoughts change and they act differently, so when girls and boys become old people (grandma and grandpa)  their thoughts will be the same again just like when they were little kids.

Journal Entry 3: Popular or Intelligent?? :)

Being popular is good and bad in many ways. The good thing of being popular is that you are famous, attractive, and have alot of friends but sometimes when you are popular it is also bad because you can't have your own private time (people will bug you), people will also talk behind your back, and sometimes people might use you just to get popular. Intelligent, basically when you are intelligent there are alot of advantages and disvantages, when it comes to advantages people think you are smart and you are really successful in school subjects. The disvantages of being intelligent is that dumb people will get jealous and sometimes people will think you are nerdy or wimpy. When you are unusual at school, people will think you are a freak, weirdo, outsider, or a monster but it is also good because some people will think you are unique, special, or extordinary. When people want to fit in, the sacrifices they make are betraying  their real friends and go hang out with some cool people which are not their real friends. They will also try to dress differently (pretty) then they use to or they try to act more cool to fit in more. Well I think that I fit in and I would like to be the smartest kid because when your smart you can figure out a way to be popular and being smart is useful  for me to get a job in the future.

Journal Entry 2: Teen Feelings :)

After reading the story "Broken Chain", I think that most thirteen and fourteen year olds care alot about what others think of them and how they look. Most teens have zits/pimples and they care alot about it because they think that their classmates might laugh at them or it might be embarrassing for them to go to school with a zit/pimple. Like most thirteen and fourteen year old girls care about their clothes and hair because they maybe want to fit in with the other girls or they don't want people thinking they are wearing ugly clothes or having a weird hairstyle. When teens care about their appearance they sometimes can't focus in school. For example if they get bored in class they might start thinking about their appearance and loose focus on that subject. I think that appearance is not a big deal because even though if you are really ugly it is not like a person will come up to you and shout in your face "YOU ARE WAY TOO HIDEOUS TO LOOK AT!". I think that thirteen and fourteen year olds should focus more on education rather than their appearance because it is sort of a waste of time.

Journal Entry 1: Introducing to me :)

Hey everyone, my name is Ting! I'm writing in this blog because I want to introduce myself and it's also because it's my english class assignment. Well, I'm an asian girl with straight black hair, small eyes-like all asians haha-, and yellow colored skin. I'm pretty shy when I don't know a person very well, but after I know that person I'm open-minded. I'm the only child in my family and when I was little my family and me traveled to the States, then we went to Europe. I can speak english, chinese, taiwanese, and danish. I like to go shopping, doodling, playing the violin, and playing the piano. I hate all insects and bugs because they're distgusting, evil and they also have super powers, such as mosquitos have the ability to suck human blood. I also hate punctuating because somehow it doesn't make sense to me. When I grow up I want to go to Europe and be a fashion designer or artist. I think that writing in this blog is fun because I get to let the whole world see it which I think is really cool.
