            So today, we have a rally going on during eight period, and the theme this month is 80's.  The whole leadership crew are responsible for the rallies, so we thank them a whole lot. About one fourth of the school dressed up, but we still look good. I like have rallies, because all the classes are shorter and in eight period, half of the short schedule is just having fun.
            So far I have been to one rally, besides today, and it was awesome! There was lots of fun activities that the students and teachers get to play and the rest of the people watches who wins. There are two rallies, rally A and rally B, because we can't fit eight-hundred students at once. When its students and teachers turns for their rally we are separated by grade, seventh or eight. On the activities, it's a competition between the grades. It's fun beating the eight graders because it makes us look better than them.

China Peak

            One day there was a girl named Shasha. The main thing she wanted to do in go skiing on China Peak. She wanted to do this since she was seven years old but her parents don't have enough money. She always tried to save money, but her parents had to spend the money on bills. So on one week before Christmas, she was at the grocery store and she saw Santa. She ran to him and waited in line for her turn. When it was her turn she told him what she wanted, to go skiing on China Peak. 
            Two days before Christmas, while Shasha was sleeping, her parents were planning a three day skii trip for her! They raised money from their jobs and money from a large garage sale they had when Shasha was in school. They want to surprise her by saying that she's going to her grandmother's house. So the day after right before Shasha woke up, her Aunt Kendall came to watch her while Shasha's parents buy her skii gear.

Thanksgiving for Mallory.

            It's six o'clock in the morning and I am awake waiting for my cousins to arrive from North Carolina. A few things that pop up in my head when I think of Thanksgiving is food, family, joy, and laughing. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays because I get to see family members that I don't see very often. And having them on a great holiday is delightful. I also love Thanksgiving because of how my big sister brings her delicous, home-made turkeys. And my Aunt's soft home-made corn bread muffin. I am glad that we have Thanksgiving on a week of vacation, because when my whole family is in town, I want to spend every second with them. Because I don't usually see them, and it's fun catching up with my cousins and exchanging events that happened. 
           Thinking of all about Thanksgiving just makes me so anxious to start my day. An hour has passed and my cousins were supposed to arrive in California 3 hours ago. I thought something was going on. I think their flight crashed or something?!
