"August to June"

"August to June" 

By: Zoya Bashwani

It all started in a split second

Mrs. Furr passed out our first project while I beckoned

The chills ran through my body while I panic

I felt I was like the people in titanic

Then I read the title of the project

It was called “My Life Map” which I respect

The second six weeks started and we received a book to read

It was called the “Touching Spirit Bear”, it was so easy to read I couldn't mislead

We did assignments to projects to even major tests with this book

I would recommend you to have a look

This was the best book I ever read in class

You can read this book anywhere even in the grass

We finished the book “Touching Spirit Bear”

And soon we got a project called Totem Pole, I swear

I did this project with a partner, name Cassie

We finished our Totem Pole and it looked really classy

That was the last thing we did with “Touching Spirit Bear”

I’m going to check this book out again and read it in New York at Times Square

The work got harder and harder except…

When we got to the easy project called 30 day Blogger that I accept

This was one of the most entertaining projects I ever did

If you do this project it will take off your lid

Each and every day I got home and started my blogger without a blur

I’m going to keep this warm in my heart like it’s my own fur.

Mankind is poised midway between the Goddesses and Gods

We started a new unit that was everyone’s new jobs

We went from taking notes to reading to a major project

Our huge project on this unit was to make CVMS teachers to Gods and Goddesses which was a big effect

I got a hundred on the project that I was proud of

This project was made out of one lovable dove

The last six weeks started with stress

Was I happy school was almost over? Yes!

This unit was about poets and poetry

We had done poet research and I was focusing

My computer ran low and slow

I was going to Ace this project with a flow!

Poetry on a Page

Spine Poetry

When I grow up :)

When I grow up

When I grow up
We travel from place to place
Meeting new people and exploring
When I'm grown up

When I grow up
A watch, a time turner, an hour glass
A new idea with support and encouragement
Can go a long way
When I'm grown up

When I grow up
A train had stop
And there you are at the place
Where you are expected
When I'm grown up

When I grow up
Everything is a competition or a struggle
We are always either winning or losing
When I'm grown up

Day 30: Reflection!

My reflection on this project was very fun and exciting! I always had to think of what to write and what kind of picture should I post, I just had to think very, very hard. When I first got this project I had no idea what to do, it was just so confusing! But than I easily got it. I took a snapshot of the app blogger because as usual I didn't know what picture to post! This is my 30th post! I wished we could have done this during the rest of the year. I'm very glad that we didn't have any blogs on the weekends because if we did I would have missed it every single time ;). Well this is my reflection post! I'm so sad that its my last post :(.

Day 29: Inspiration!

My inspiration is my best friend Alysha. She's my inspiration because she pushes me to do new stuff and never let go which I love her for that. Maybe if it wasn't her I wouldn't be a girl scouter. Alysha was one of my best friends when I moved here. She made me comfortable around people that she knew but I didn't. Sometimes she inspires me and sometimes I inspire her. I hope we never break our friendship and keep inspiring each other. Well that's the person that's inspirational to me. Can't wait to post more! :)

Day 28: Surprise!

On Friday Sofia surprised me by showing up at church. I haven't seen Sofia in like 2 weeks. Sofia is one of my best friends that I know. She is like a sister to talk to. I took this picture at my church when she surprised me. I love Sofia and no one can change that. I only see Sofia every weekend plus Friday. For some reason she didn't come last week to church so I missed her and she surprised me by coming this week which I love her for that. Well that's how I got surprised. Can't wait to post more

Day 27: Things I love!

The things I love are chocolate and cookie cake, but mostly cookie cake! Every year on my birthday I pick cookie cake for my birthday cake. I don't go to Walmart or Kroger to get my cookie cake, I get my cake from the mall at Great American Cookie place by the food court. Whenever I go to the mall to shop of watch a movie I always go upstairs and get a piece of a cookie cake. When I was little I always use to get the samples that are on the table a couple times. I just love how soft the cake is and the icing. Well that is the number one thing I love which is cookie cake! Can't wait to post more.

Day 26: Relaxation

Whenever I watch tv I always get relaxed. I don't know why I get relax when I watch tv probably because when I watch tv, I watch it when I'm done with my homework so that's how I probably get relax :). Whenever I watch tv I watch like dance moms or something else. Whenever I come home I eat, do my homework and then watch tv. Sometimes I don't have time to watch tv so I don't get relaxation! Well this is what I do when I want to relax :).

Day 25: Ordinary Moment

This is my ordinary moment because I always have school lunch and my snack for lunch is fantastic which I love. Whenever it's lunch time I get so excited because I get to eat my fantastic! Fantastic are like hot fries but more spicer. I had never had home lunch since I came to middle school I always got school lunch. I ALWAYS get chicken nuggets for lunch. I also ALWAYS get fantastic since I joined middle school. Not one day I didn't get fantastic. School lunch and fantastic is my ordinary moment. Can't wait to post more!

Day 24: My Shoes

These are my shoes. These are blue vans which are my favorite shoes. I don't wear these shoes a lot because I wear different shoes everyday. Today I wore my vans to school so my shoes for today is my vans. I got vans when I was in 6th grade and they aren't that dirty because I take care of my shoes. When I first got it I used to wear it a lot and than I let it go and wore it sometimes now. I wore my blue vans with neon pink socks. :). Can't wait to post more.

Day 23: What makes me Smile! :)

This is what makes me smile my dog! Whenever I wake up he's so happy to see me and I'm happy to see my dog. My dog's name is CoCo. We got him last summer. He's very hyper and when he's hyper he makes me smile. He's a silly dog which makes me laugh :). My dog is a wild dog. The day I got him I new he was going to make me happy. I took this picture in the morning when he was excited to see me. I took it when we looked like a model. That made me smile because it was hilarious. He even walks like a model. Well that's my picture. Can't wait to post more.

Day 22: Thirst quencher :D

This is my thirst quencher! I love coke because its just so good. I'm actually addicted to it because when I was in my Mom's stomach, my mom use to drink coke everyday because she kept craving it ad because of that since childhood I love to drink coke. Everyday when I come home and eat my lunch I drink coke. But don't worry at school I drink water and when I come home I drink coke and WATER! ;). Whenever I don't have coke I panic and go to my dad and tell him to bring some tomorrow and when he does I get happy I mean really happy. Well that's my thirst quencher. Can't wait to post more!!

Day 21: My Music ;)

Believe it or not but I don't have any songs in my phone because I don't have time to put music in my phone. I'm not the person that absolutely doesn't listen to music, I do but I listen it when I'm in the car listening to the radio! My favorite song is "Diamond" by Rihanna. I love that song because its very catchy. I hate rap music because my head starts hurting and it doesn't sound good especially people when they have a really bad high pitch voice and I mean really :/. I do love one direction mostly the song "What make you beautiful". I love songs but I don't have any in my phone. Well that's my music! Can't wait to post more!! :)

Day 20: My Closet :)

This is how my closet looks like. I actually have two sections of my closet but I only took a picture of one section. I didn't want to take the picture of my other closet section because it was too messy because I have a big bag that has all my clothes I want to donate and since there is a lot of clothes in that bag it started to rip so that section got dirty. That section has my church clothes (Indian clothes) and some of my comfortable clothes. The section that I took a picture of has all my formal clothes that I wear sometimes to my church and I also have my Indian clothes to wear on Fridays! Whenever I clean my closet which I like every one month you get more space which I like. On top of my clothes there are board games and towels. Sometimes I can't even reach to that spot and sometimes when I feel tall I can reach it ;). So, that's how my closet looks like. Can't wait to post more.

POHW: Character Development

At the beginning of the story, Hollis didn't have a family and right now Hollis has a beautiful family. She has five members of her family; a mother, a father, a brother, and two sisters. That's what called family. Whenever Hollis has something important to say she never tells anyone. She always keeps it to herself which is a bad thing in my opinion. Right now Hollis opens up to everyone and tells other people about her life. She also runs away from problems, she can never face her problems to herself. Hollis is now dealing with her problems and faces it to herself like everyone is suppose to do. Last but not least, Hollis use to dislike EVERYONE!! She always make friends and like everyone that is good for her. I'm very proud of Hollis right now because she cares for everyone and takes blame for other people which is called responsibility. This is how Hollis was in the beginning and how Hollis is now.

The similarities Hollis still has from the beginning and now is that she is still a beautiful artistic. The way everyone describes in the book I really want to see her drawings in person but too bad I can't. Hollis still likes the Regan family as much as she did in the beginning. I already new that she will like the Regan's family throughout the book by the way she was spending time with. Hollis also loves Josie from the beginning. Hollis loves Josie because Josie has token car for her whenever she came and that's why Hollis is so attached to this family. Last but not the least, she didn't like how she was abandon when she was a baby. If I had ever gotten abandon I would never forget and I would have never like what they did. I would feel the same way as Hollis Woods.

This was a great book! :)

Day 19: My Lunch

This was my lunch today. These Hot wings were really good and yummy. I usually eat my lunch at 4:30ish because when I come back from school I eat right away with my family. I usually eat Indian food that my mom cooks. Since my mom had work today I had to eat something we already had. We had hot wings in the freezer, so I ate it. In school I eat chicken nuggets but I eat it at 11:40ish which is when I eat breakfast so I come home and eat my lunch. That was my lunch today and it was fantastic!!

Day 18: In my Bag :)

This is what's in my bag. In my bag there's my theatre binder, my ELA binder and my math binder. I also have my Texas History composition book and folder. Sometimes I have my science notebook only if I need it :). Usually I put my notebook in my science class. I put everything in my backpack because I never go to my locker. My bag isn't that heavy because my binders are very light. On Wednesday's my backpack is very very light because I have only my reading binder and my Texas history composition book which isn't heavy. So, that's what I have in my backpack (bag). :)

Day 17: Someone I love

These are the two people I love a lot, Cassie and My Mom. They do everything for me especially my mom. I love my mom. Sometimes I just want to do something special for her like how she does for me. On her birthday/Mother's Day I always give her gift because I love her. Cassie, Cassie, Cassie where should I began. I love her to death. I tell her everything and she tells me everything too. I love having classes with her. Whenever I come to reading she always makes a smile on my face. She makes me laugh by telling everyone to Sush ;). I'm glad we got close this year :).

POHW: Making a Difference

One adult that made a positive difference in my life is my aunt. She lives in Euless with her 2 kids. My aunt made a difference in my life by taking care of me. When I was little my parents had to go out of country for an emergency while my aunt was here taking care of me like I was her real daughter. My aunt is like my second mom. Whenever it's Mother's Day I always give her a gift too with my mom. My aunt always has my back. I love her to moon and back :). Since she moved to Euless I can only see her probably once a month :( which is the only problem. That's my adult that made a positive difference in my life. :)

Day 16: Transportation :)

This is my transportation. The blue Honda accord is my Mom's car. The white Honda van is my dad's car. We got both of these car last year since our both other cars were dead -_- I like both of these cars better than the old one. Even though we had both of these car for 1 year, we have spent a lot of memories in it. My mom drops me off to school in the morning with her blue car and my dad picks me up with his white van. Inside of these two cars is very cozy which I like :). That's my transportation. Can't wait to post more :)

Day 15: Guilty Pleasures

This is picture is bubble gum. I love bubble gum. I have addiction to chew bubble gum, I can't help it. I love to try different flavors. Whenever I go to restaurants and I'm done with my food, I always go to the bubble gum machine like a little girl which I'm ashamed on. I love the bubble gum machines except whenever the flavor is out, it gets hard, I mean really hard -_- I still love bubble gum especially the brand name Extra. I'm so happy that our school is aloud to bring bubble gum :). Can't wait to post more.

POHW: To The Mustard Lady

Dear Mustard Lady,

I think that your choice of sending me away is a very bad choice. I really enjoy it here. The reason I don't go to school is because Josie has been showing me things around that I dreamed of. If you want to blame someone please blame me and not Josie. I have to and need to stay with Josie because she is a friend to me and she needs me know. If you take me away from her you will regret it. I love to spend time with Josie. I will go to school know so I can't stay with Josie and not go far from her.

Sincerely,
Hollis Woods

Day 14: 11:11 Viewpoint

This is my viewpoint for 11:11. I was in reading when it was 11:11. That time is when it's a passing period and the 6th graders get to go to lunch -_- but only on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays. In reading we were reading Pictures of Hollis Woods. I wasn't here on Friday so I had to finish my make up work which was easy. I took a picture of Cassie and I because I always talk to her during passing periods. Can't wait to post more!! :)

Day 13: Fridays

This is my Friday picture! On Fridays it is a special day at my church, which is called a jamatkhana. Since it is a special day, we wear traditional clothes. My best friend Alysha also goes to the same jamatkhana as I do. After our ceremonies, we do some individual prayers, and then can socialize with each other and our friends. I'm glad that my best friend also goes to the same jamatkhana because we can attend the ceremonies together!😊❤. Hope you enjoyed learning a little bit about my religion and my Friday ceremonies! Can't wait to post more pictures! See you soon!

Day 12: My Handwriting

This is my handwriting. Sometimes I love it and sometimes I hate it. My handwriting is horrible when I write in a rush. If I take time it turns out good. I'm a righty. If I try to write in my left hand, I write very bad and sloppy. I can't draw either. I think I write better than I draw. Anyways that's my handwriting! Can't wait to post more :)

POHW: Josie's feelings

I feel really happy that I received Hollis today. She is a very bright kid. We both have a common trait which is drawing. I'm looking forward drawing with her. I feel really sorry for her because no one listens to her feelings which is sad. I want to be the foster parent she ever had. I'm really glad that me and Hollis are bonding like mother and daughter. Wish me good luck with her. :)

Day 11: My Locker :)

This is my locker picture. My locker is red and everyone else is also. I don't really go to my locker a lot because I have everything in my backpack. The only thing I have in my locker is my textbooks. If I have to go to my locker, I have to go for my literature book or put my athletic clothes away. Sometimes I forget my lock combo. My locker is really easy to open. Can't wait to post more!!

Day 10: Colors

This is my colors picture for today. I did this picture because I love rainbow colors. This isn't an exact picture of a rainbow but it I still like it. I love to draw in markers that's why I did markers for my rainbows. Red is the color of fire and blood,Orange combines the energy of red and the happiness of yellow. Yellow is the color of sunshine. It's associated with joy, happiness, intellect, and energy.
Green is the color of nature. It symbolizes growth, harmony, freshness, and fertility.Blue is the color of the sky and sea. It is often associated with depth and stability. Purple combines the stability of blue and the energy of red. Purple is associated with royalty.Black is associated with power, elegance, formality, death, evil, and mystery.
That's what kinds of colors represent. Can't wait to post more!!

Day 9: Mondays :)

This is my Monday picture because mostly every Monday we have a creek valley basketball game. Today we played against shadow ridge. So far C team lost and right now I'm in the middle of second quarter B team. I love to support my friends and watch them play. This was a home game. I love home games better than away games. Well this is my Monday. Can't wait to post more! (:

Day 8: Shadow :)

Hey everyone! This is my shadow picture! The peace sign and the heart one were taken on the bus, and the full body was on the ground. Here's a riddle for you: What is the part of a bird that is not in the sky, it can swim in the ocean but always stay dry. The answer is... It's shadow! Hope you enjoyed that riddle! Have a great weekend! I'm so excited to post more pictures!

Day 7: What I'm reading now

This is what I'm reading. It's a very good book. I think this is going to be one of my best books ever. This is about a girl who wish on her birthday to make all her wishes come true since day 1. The next thing she gets a horse in her room and she wished that when she was 4. Everything comes true but when she was 15 she wished something really bad. To know what she wished read the book it's really good! :)

Day 6: Family

This is my family. I love them so much. They take care of me feed me and etc. I have one sister name Anum and one brother name Hairs who is annoying! I am the youngest out of the family. They support me through thick and thin. I don't know what I would do without them :). Can't wait to post more!

Day 5: Morning Picture 😊

This is my morning picture because this is what I eat every morning! I always eat cereal because its a light breakfast an also good for you. I eat cookie crisp with cold milk which is very good :). I knew that everyone would take a picture of a morning sunrise or a class that their in but I wanted something different and I pick this. I hope you like this picture. I can't wait to post more

Day 4: Best Friend

These are my best friends. I could never pick either to be my number one best friend. I love them and I always will love them :). My four best friends are Sofia, Mehak, Alysha and last but not the least Cassie!! They are like my sisters that I could talk to whenever I need to. I love them to death and they love me to death too. I hope our friendship never breaks and always will keep going :). Can't wait to post more.

Day 2: Fashion Sense

Hi guys!! As you can see, I don't very like dressing up... Well not at least at school. I love to dress out on special occasions :). I like to wear just t-shirts and jeans or yoga pants to school. I also love to wear my vans because they are very comfortable and sometimes I wear flats too:). Well, that's my fashion sense. Can't wait to post more pictures!!!!

Day 1: Self Portrait :)

Hey! Well, this is me and as you can see I'm in the car. I smiled in this picture because I love to smile. I also love making other people smile :).

I am looking forward to this project because its all about taking pictures and I love taking pictures :).
