POST#18: 5TH GRADE, HERE I COME!!!



WOOHOO! I just found out that I pulled off straight A's (as I do always!!!) AND, I got a "Certificate of Excellence"! I got evaluated for 3 criteria: Service, Effort and Academics. And that certificate, given to students from 4th grade up, is the highest honor a student can have, EVER. So, as you can imagine, I was very honored. And I deserved it.. why? I have a 99 on Religion, a 99 in English, 95 in Spanish, 90 in Math, and a 99 in both Science and Social Studies. So maybe now you know how I received that certificate and got promoted to 5th grade...


Have a great weekend!

POST#17: STUDDING!


Today, I went to Ouna's Closet for a craft party. In the party, we brought our jeans, shorts, and skirts. The craft we did was to stud our stuff. Trust me, it is not as easy as it sounds. It's fun, but you need to have patience because it is not like you just glue the stud to the clothing. You need to get your pliers, studs, and clothing. Anyway, it was really fun because we talked and had fun!

Have a great weekend!

POST#16: THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT!!


Hi! I just found out that my blog has been viewed in many countries. Those countries are: Canada, France, Taiwan, Macedonia, Russia, Panama, USA, Puerto Rico, Latvia, the Netherlands, and Germany. And the country with the most views is : Puerto Rico, with 457. The other countries are: the USA with 359, Russia with 28, Panama with 19, Germany with 14, the Netherlands with 7, Canada with 2, and France, Macedonia, Latvia and Taiwan, all with 1 view. I never, ever, EVER expected that my blog would get so many views in so many countries. And I just started the blog for fun, and running a blog is SUPER fun because you get to choose and control everything from your laptop or computer. Anyway, I never thought THAT would happen in just 16 weeks.

Thanks, Merci, Gracias, спасибо, Bedankt, Dank, Paldies, благодарение, 謝謝.

POST#15: ARECIBO LIGHTHOUSE!



On Tuesday, my class went on a field trip to "Arecibo Lighthouse and Historical Park". It was AWESOME! We went by bus, and the bus trip was long, obviously since we started in San Juan. But, it was nice when we finally got there. A little secret, I slept on the bus! First, we went on a tour around the park and we bought souveniers. Then, we ate pizza for lunch and played for a LONG time in the playground and saw the mini-zoo. I was sad when we had to leave, but I had a TON of fun on the trip. The tour guide was really nice, and the lighthouse museum was great. Plus, I bought a LOT of things in the gift shop.


Have a nice weekend!
