I am in a club called the purple ribbon club. The purple ribbon is for animal cruelty. What we do is help out at animal shelters and attend a meeting every Wednesday. Helping out at the animal shelters is a lot of fun. You get to visit and play with them whether you like cats or dogs(I am a cat lover). They need homes and if you can't afford one helping out is aneasy way you can still care for pets. I mainly stay in cat rooms because cats just like me better and I like cats better. Smetimes though I will go and play with the dogs too.
          For some reason I am really good with cats. Maybe I just smell like cats from home, or I am just naturally good with cats. At the shelter we got to spend time with the cats first and I would just let them leave while I stayed there. I always feel at home with a cat on my lap. The cats normally really like the attention and are happy to have someone like me there.

              Tommorrow I am going to Monteray for the weekend. My family owns a townhouse there. The reason that we are going is because we are going to remodel the house soon. My family had that house when my mom was little, and they need to change it. My grandparents are coming up, too, so they can add in their word.Since, it is right up against the beach I think there should be like sea green walls downstairs, and upstairs thee should be a rich royal blue. The carpet should match a color of sand or mud to get just the best amount of under-the-sea feelings. Who knows maybe we can find some little fish trinkets to put around the house. Downstairs in the garage we should either keep it the way it is or paint it black. The bathrooms should make you feel like you are in a clam or abolone shell. I would suggest that the bathrooms will have a shiny silver color.
               I am also going to spend some time at my friend's house. In the morning we are going to go to the new exhibit at the Monteray Bay Aquarium. The new exhibit is about jellyfish. They used to have an exhibit on jellyfish, but they replaced it with one on seahorses.

                     In science we are learning about how to make wet mount slides, that you can take and get rid of and is not permanent. We have studied many things under a microscope. Earlier we took onions and peeled off the skin, just so we couls see the little cells. We drew a picture of it. Then we stained the skin with a blue dye. This made it easier to see the nucleus inside each cell. Yesterday we took our own skin cells from the inside of our cheek. What we did was take  a toothpick and scrape in our mouth some of our  skin cells. Then, we swirled it in a couple drops of water. We veiwed the slides under the microscope. We veiwed them under low,medium, and high powers.
                      After we finished the slide and veiwed them we drew pictures of what we saw in the microscope. Then we dyed the cells and saw a more clear view of the cells. We drew another picture of them and then finished a set of questions on a paper on

       When you are lost in a crazy frantic dream running from some unknown creature what can you blame for scaring really bad? Yourself. That is who you will blame for all that nonsense. It is all about you imagination the thing that lets you be creative. If you are an artist this definately something you will want. Your imagination comes when you think of something unrealistic and give it qualities so it can chase you or play with you. It could be two regular old animals that you morph in to something bigger and brighter. Take a dog and a plant and you would get a plog. Or a chicken and a blanket, which would result in a chicket. That would end up being a vast amount of imagination.

             In science today, we did a wet mount slide. A wet mount slide is a microscope slide that is used with water. To make a wet mount slide you have to put a drop of water on a slide and put a piece of newspaper over it. Then add a coupke more drops of water, add a coverslip and then you have a wet mount slide. We had a worksheet about viewing the slide under a microscope. If you don't know how to use a microscope, there are three places where you can adjust to see a larger maginification. There is the course adjustment knob and the fine adjustment knob, that help you to

               
In school I am learning French as one of my electives. A couple days ago I had
aposter that I had to do for French. It was on what I like and what I dislike.
Then we presented them to the class. Some kids knew exactly what to say and knew
what they wrote. I went today, and mine was really rough, since I hadn't
rehearsed what I was going to say. What had on my poster was that I loved cats,
loved cheese, liked to do baton, liked to roller skate, liked to bike ride, and
I liked to dance. What I disliked was running, football, soccer, snails, and
tests. After I was done I gave it to my teacher and picked the next person to
go. When I went up there I was really nervous with about twelve questions in my
head that have no answers. Will I mess up? How do I say this in French? Do I
know what is on my board really well? I didn't know answers to any of these
questions. Luckily my board presentation went really well and I didn't do a bad
job.

                    
Next week the quarter ends, and everyone is getting nervous about their grades(
not that they weren't already). My core teacher knew  about the stress some of
us were in. She talked to us about our grades, and about some other small things
we needed to know. One of the things was that if you don't understand something
you need to get help from one of the teachers that actually teach the subject
you are in. If your teacher is willing to help that is the best way to go. Some
schools will offer help in some rooms at lunch, before school, or after school.

                   You step out of your house early one morning, and smell the crisp clean air all around you. Probably you are thinking about what would happen without this morning breeze. Many things can happen to that nice cool air. The biggest problem that is threatening that is the smog people put out from factories, fires, and etc. Now wildfires happen, but when you light a nice warm fire in your chimney can be prevented. I'm sure you can find some ways where the fire isn't lit. Many factories produce a lot of smog, too. One thing that I have not mentioned is that carbon dioxide is in the air. When you exhale, the carbon dioxide is blown out of your system. If you have to much of this, you will suffocate (this mainly occurs in small places where there isn't much oxygen). Now before you stop breathing, let me tell you there is a helpful living thing that is all around us that will help. Trees will be our superhero, in this case. Trees take in our carbon dioxide, and release what they can't use; oxygen. Before you go outside and hug a great tree, there are some things that trees put in to our envirement, too. Pollen may help trees, but it is terrible for us. You know how when it is spring and flowers are growing, and you have an allergy? The pollen may be causing you to have that allergy. So remember, that even though you may want to light a fire or chop down a tree, think about what you want to be breathe.

              Imagine you are in a majestic place surrounded by millions of swimming fish, then imagine your at a riverbed where waterfowl and other small creatures are watching you. Then everything is gone. This will be one of the effects of pollution. Pollution is what humans do every single day, it could be dropping a piece of litter on the ground, or creating to much smokefrom a factory. Just that small piece of trash could end up rolling right in to the river where animals will mistake it as food. Or will collect with other pieces of trash that other people have dropped on the ground. Do we want this to end up happening? It could destroy our water supply and kill off millions of animals that are needed in that ecosystem. Pollution can also be horrible for the world.

On My Digital Life, I have learned about plagarism and identity theft. Plagarism
is a way to steal other peoples ideas or works of art and calling them your own.
I f you find something that has some really good information for an essay in
school, but you don't want to plagarise site the source. When you site the
source that you took some information from you are giving the author some credit
for his work. Identity theft is where a person or people try to take over your
account for something. It could be a twitter page or an E-mail, but people could
still steal your identity!

Some tips to try to prevent that from
happening are these, Always change change your passwords frequently. If you need
help to memorise the passwords each time you change them, why not write them in
a journal. How do you know if your password is safe? Just make sure you have
scrambled letters (uppercase and lowercase), symbols, and numbers.
