=Friday, February 5, 2010= 2. Journal Writing: Your OWN PTV story.

If I could make my own PTV story, I would make it about the top 10 best teachers and worst teachers. It would describe the teachers in homework amount and quality, niceness, average times you saw them smile/frown, how much classwork they give you, how much tolerance they have, their personalities, and other interesting things. They could 'interview' the teachers on the list about what drives them to their cause. They could choose one teacher every episode and find out some stuff about them, such as their favorite book and animal,or if they prefer spinach or lasagna. It would be really funny and PTV's 'views' would go up sharply.

Submarine
1. At first everything was dim and black.

2. As soon as some lights came on, everything was really colorful and pretty.

3. Colors started disappearing. Light colors like red and yellow disappeared really quickly.

4. Fish started following the submarine because the diver was giving them food.

5. The diver had a plaque that said "Welcome KIS!" How nice!

6. The person told us almost everything about our trip.

7. Our trip was only 30 minutes or so.

8. We went down about 40 meters.

9. It was a bit damp in the submarine.

10. We didn't get to see any starfish! :(

Orange Plantation
1. There were a lot of spiders. Big spiders.

2. A lot of oranges were green.

3. We cut oranges with the scissor things.

4. The greenery was too thick to get to the ripe oranges :(

5. Some disgusting people tried to cut the spiders!

6. We only stayed 20 minutes :(

7. We got to have 4 tangerines when we left! :)

8. Somebody walked right through a spider web! Hahaha!

9. I saw a couple of caterpillars - eww!

10. The tangerines were sour, but I like them that way :)

Sunrise Peak
1. It was very steep.

2. I made it to the top!

3. There was a small souvenir shop there.

4. It was a beautiful view on the top.

5. We didn't get to see the sunrise :(

6. There were over 100 steps! (I tried counting but I lost count)

7. There was a lot of greenery and plants.

8. I saw some pretty purple flowers here and there.

9. It was hard work climbing up.

10. I noticed that you could go farther up, but there were no steps, so...

Waterfall
1. We couldn't go inside the water! :(

2. The waterfall was small, but it made a great picture.

3. There were many souvenir shops near there.

6. There was a sign that said that there was evidence of humans a long time ago.

7. We had to walk a little.

8. It was a beautiful view.

9. There was a rock temple-ish place. You could put a rock on a tower of rocks, and you could wish something.

10. I tossed a coin into the river, but I missed my goal!

Observatory
1. We saw a lot of stars even without the telescopes.

2. Somebody jumped out at me!

3. It was cold.

4. The stars in the little telescopes were really pretty and close up.

5. In one telescope, it looked like a white desert.

6. The big telescope was bigger than me!

7. Inside the big telescope was a giant star! It looked like it had 4 colours.

8. The presentation dome shows were realistic.

9. The constellations, drawing and realistic, were really great!

In the Jeju trip, I'm looking forward to the orange plantation. I like to look at orange trees because I have a good memory of an orange tree. When I lived in America, in my house, there was an orange tree in the back yard. We always picked fresh, orange oranges instead of buying the stale ones in the store. They were very good and I loved them. I was very sorry when I moved to Korea. I am looking forward to tasting fresh-picked oranges again!

Chuseok is special for me because every Chuseok, our family goes to our grandparents' houses. The thing that is special for me is that I go to my favorite cousins to

stay for at least a day. They are a family of 6, including a mom, dad, a boy my age, a girl one year younger than me, and twin sisters that are about 1st grade. Their

mother always makes interesting dishes like wet seaweed wrap, homemade garlic bread, and cured ham. I really like being with them. That is why I like Chuseok, and

why it is so special to me.

Today is conference day for my mom. Anyways, I get to stay after school today if the teachers let me. Cassie's conference is today too, so we'll meet up as soon as the

rings. Maybe we'll hang out in the library. Or we might go to the soccer field. It all depends. Anyways, today is a promising day! I really hope I have fun.

= = =Friday, September 18, 2009=

Something that annoys me is school. That doesn't count for everyday, it just annoys me today. For today, I go to Irene's house as soon as school's over. I can't wait for

school to end today. The classes are dragging by and I am so bored. But maybe it's time I should be annoyed at. I don't really care, but anyways, today is DEFG day,

and a Friday (Then activity block is Advisory, and I hate Advisory) and DEFG days are boring. I can't think of anything to type anymore, so bye!

Wednesday, Mountain-that-walks season, 20,000 BCE

Dear Mom,

I never knew that living alone in a cave is so fun! I actually enjoy it, and if it were not for Ram, my very best friend, it would be quite lonely. Now, I know I shouldn't

be writing to you, because the evil spirits shall be angered, but I feel like I have to. I've heard a lot about you from Kala, and she says that you are a nice person.

My real point of the letter is a secret! You will never guess! Maybe I will tell you.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Did you guess? Of course not! So I'll tell you: I want to be a cave painter, and I'm getting apprenticed by the greatest master ever, Graybeard. I like Graybeard, but he

often loses his temper at the wrong times. You probably know this, and because of my terrible bad leg, drawing is taboo for me. Please give me hope and faith for

my journey!

Best Regards, Tao

If I were to write a story about myself, the setting would be in America. I say this because I spent a lot of my life in America. The time would be in 2000~2007. I would

include the times I spent in Korea, too. I would include things like tiny restaurants, small cafes, friends' houses, and other small things. Maybe I should write a story of

myself.

On the weekend, I will go to Irene's house while my mom goes to my aunt's house in Seoul. If I had my way, I probably wouldn't go to church.

It is so boring, but I have to go because my mom makes me. On Sunday, I will probably just lie around and play. I would just do computer and play badminton or play with

my cavy. He is cute, but all he does is eat. I hope I have a good weekend.

If I were Tao, I'd feel kind of happy living in my own cave. I've always wanted to try that. It would be a good relief to take vacation from the world even for a few days.

I won't get lonely, because I have a nice little wolf dog to hunt with. Each day, I would go out hunting in the Slough, and draw pictures of all the animals I saw. I am

expecting Graybeard, because he might teach me how to paint. I would have a schedule too, like hunting today, gathering tomorrow. I might even make a few things

for my cave! That is why I would definitely like to live in a cave alone.

If I could go anywhere in the world, then I would go to the arctic to watch aurora borealis. I have never seen it before, and it would be cool. I think that aurora borealis

would look best in the arctic. I really want to see it. Aurora borealis would really look nice on a video camera. Whenever I wanted to see it, I could just look at a video on

the computer. It would be great! That is why I would want to go to the arctic.

If I could change one thing about middle school, then it would be being able to do computer games, chatting, and music videos. I don't really watch the music videos,

but I just put it on there for no reason. Class does get boring after a while, don't you think? Plus, all the teachers are allowed, except they can only make dumb excuses

like "for educational purposes" and "for comfort". Very pushing through and through, yes? If we were allowed to chat, then we could talk even if we are in different

classes. It would be nice for the students. So that's what I would change in middle school if I could.

The person I admire the most is Mr.Schwagler. The reasons I admire him are because he doesn't get mad easily, he is nicer than all my other teachers, and because

he doesn't get mad when you don't do your homework. When you walk into English five minutes after the bell rang, he doesn't get mad like Mr. Morton. Mr. Morton is nice,

but Mr.Schwagler is nicer. For example, all the other teachers kind of growl at you if you did something wrong, Mr.Schwagler doesn't do mean stuff to you. When you don't

do your homework or if you forget it, Mr.Schwagler doesn't really get angry. He actually believes (or tries to believe) excuses from dumb kids. When I grow up, I want to

be a nice person like Mr.Schwagler.

If I had a super power, then it would be the ability to turn into any animal. The reason I chose this power is because then I can fly

and become a snake if I wanted to. If you could be any animal you wanted, it is also very handy because you can disguise yourself

as a bird to do secret things. You can also be stronger, have more stamina, or be faster sometimes in your animal form. Grizzly bears

are stronger than humans, seals have stamina, and leopards are faster that humans. You can also breath underwater if you tried.

So that's why I would choose to have the power of turning into any animal if I had a superpower.

Today nothing happened much. I went to BCDE blocks today, which is social studies, computers, science and english.

Plus, today was the 1st day of clubs. I was thrown in the singing club. I thought it was going to be terrible. It was not bad,

since I did not have to sing ~ yay! Instead I'm the videotaper, which is so fun!

Later: The dumb IT office guys did something to my computer! I was so angy that my mom got mad at me just for being mad.

How unfair!!!
