Journal Entry 39: Christmas Holiday :)

I think that Christmas is a holiday where magical things happen. Christmas is more like a religious holiday since it is the day when Jesus Christ was born, which is December 25. I am very excited for Christmas since on Christmas people get presents from Santa Claus, just kidding Santa Claus does not exist, since Santa Claus is just a chubby made up dude! Only nine more days left until Christmas YEAH so excited. Well in my family we do not really celebrate Christmas well the only part we do celebrate is the exchanging presents but we do not decorate Christmas trees and something like that. For the holiday I do not know what to do so I am just planning on sleeping all day long. Well right now I do not know what else to type so I am just going to type stuff to make this journal entry longer to two hundred words. I hope it is two hundred words right now. Oh wait it is not two hundred words yet. I am missing twenty-nine more words, what a long way to go. I like cookies. I AM EXCITED FOR CHRISTMAS! Umm I think it is two hundred words now.

Journal Entry 38: Mars :)

Mars is a planet in space next to Earth. Mars and Earth are totally different because on Mars there is no oxygen, no gravity, and no water but on Earth there is oxygen, gravity, and water. On Mars the weather is really cold, you could turn into a snowman on Mars, while on Earth the weather is normal for us humans. Well at least Mars and Earth have one thing in common which is that both Mars and Earth are both planets. I think people would not go to Mars since Mars is an isolated planet and there is not much to do there, unless you are an astronomer or a scientist you would go to visit Mars for investigations and missions. To get to Mars from Earth it takes like a very, very, very looooong time, about millions of seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, and years, okay maybe not that long but it might take years to get to Mars. I would not like to go Mars since Mars is a very cold place, I do not think anyone can live on that planet and Mars is also a very scary place since there are some creepy aliens living on Mars.

Journal Entry 37: Setting and Plot :)

A story's setting is related to the story's plot. For example if there was a struggle about two friends that take place in 2005 on a California beach in the height of Summer and the same struggle that take place also two hundred years ago on a farm in New England in December. There would be a lot of difference. First of all the clothing would be different because in 2005 people were like casual clothes while back two hundred years ago people were fancy clothes. Another difference is that in New England, people have a very funny british accent while in California they do not have that kind of funny accent. Another difference is that in 2005 not much people work in farms like back two hundred years ago they work in farms very often. Also in the Summer it is very hot on the beach while in December it is very cold on the farm. The events of the story will be different in a different setting because the story sort of depends on the setting, for example if the story took place on a mountain maybe one of the events could be a person falling of the mountain.

Journal Entry 36: Writing is Difficult :)

I find it really awkward of the author of the story called "There Will Come Soft Rain", Ray Bradbury because he says writing is very difficult but he chose writing to be his career, one possible reason is that I think it is because he might want to share his creativity, imagination, ideas and something like that to other people by choosing to write as a career and another possible reason is that he might write for the $MONEY$ haha. If I should choose a career, I would not choose writing because I think that writing is boring since it takes a long time to plan out stories, essays, and stuff. To me I think that writing is sort of a waste of time. I do not really like writing but it is mostly because teachers tell us to do, well sometimes writing can be fun but only sometimes. Writing can be very important since writing is a way of communicating with others. In order to have like a good writing, you have to be a creative person and an imaginable person. Like the story "There Will Come Soft Rain" it is very creative story because it is a story that Ray Bradbury imagined about the future since the story takes place in August 4, 2026.

Journal Entry 35: Chronological Order :)

The story called "There Will Come Soft Rain" was about a series of events happening in August 4, 2026 where humans were dead. The story is organised by a little digital clock that indicates the hours. The story starts out with the clock ticking for someone to wake up and breakfast being automatically made with eight pieces of brown toast, eight eggs sunnyside up, sixteen slices of bacon, two coffees, and two glasses of milk. After that the robots cleaned up the dishes and the robots cleaned up the whole house as well. The house was safely protected and not even a single bird may touch the house. There was a dog who survived from the nuclear war that was whining outside of the porch and the front door recognized the dog's voice and the front door let the dog come in the house. The dog went searching for human from door to door in the house but there was only silence. The dog eventually died in the story because the dog got crazy. The wind blew a tree into the house and the house caught on fire. The house tried everything to save the house but there was a great quantity of smoke and silence remaining.

Journal Entry 34: Irony :)

I find it sort of ironic in the story called "There Will Come Soft Rain" because it is such a perfect place, where they have cool machines doing stuff for them but there are still people fighting and destroying things. Well nowadays I think that this kind of situation is not applicable but people still fight and people are still jealous of others even though their life is perfect. I don't like this kind of situation and I think this kind of situation should not exist because if life was so perfect then why should people fight others, it is very stupid to fight for something when life is perfect, since they are causing themselves trouble. I think people fight because they are jealous and want to be the best, like people fight for land because they want the best land than other country. I think that there are things that are so good that people will fight others for it, but I think it is best to talk over things instead of fighting because fighting can cause a lot of trouble. Well I think that there are not much things to fight with other people for, people can just talk things out to solve problems.

Journal Entry 33: My Invention :)

Well ALMOST EVERYONE hates homework, oh wait I mean EVERYONE hates homework. So I want to invent a robot that can do homework for everyone, so everyone will be happy. Well this robot will be super super super small and I mean like SUPER small, so it will be very easy to take around with you. This robot will look exactly like a teddy bear. The teddy bear robot is made of cotton like all teddy bears and it will be furry, soft, and cute. It works like this, you place the teddy bear robot on your homework and press this big red button on the teddy bear's hand and bipidibopidi BOO your homework is finished in one second!!! The teddy bear robot can do any type of homework such as, math homework, history homework, English homework, expository writing homework, science homework, and much more other types of homework. You don't need any battery for the teddy bear robot because somehow it is very magical and it can work without battery. Well after you use this teddy bear robot for three years it will automatically explode itself, so that you will have to buy a new one. This invention will be called "The Teddy Bear Homework Robot".

Journal Entry 32: Modern Technology :)

Nowadays we have a lot of types of technology like low technology such as, crafts, tools and much more others low technologies and high technology such as, cellphones, telephones, laptops, computers, ipods, and much more other high technologies. Technology can affect a person's life such as cellphones and telephones makes it easier for us humans to get in touch and communicate with people far away from us. Also like laptops and computers makes it easier for us humans to write our homework, so instead of writing homework in hand we can just type out our homework. I think that in the future like about one hundred years later there will be a lot of types technologies that have super cool and super awesome abilities. I am not sure like what kind of technology it will turn out as maybe like robots and something like that which will turn out super cool and super awesome but that will be bad because then people will be very lazy since it is easy to do stuff with technology. It will also be more bad to the Earth because a lot of types of technology is not that natural so it will cause global warming and harm the Earth.
