Rad Reading – January

This month I read the book The magic finger by Roald Dahl. This book is about a girl who gets angry at her two friends Phillip and Williams for hunting animals and ignoring her when she told them to stop. She gets so angry she gives them the magic finger. The magic finger is a magic power that the  girl has that turns people into something and Makes them learn their lesson.

    I really liked this book because it was very strange in a good way but also kept me intrigued. I also liked it because I thought it had a really good theme and overall message.

My favorite character is girl yes that is her name they never say her name in the book. I liked this character because she is very feisty. One quote that proves this is, “ Well, that did it! I saw red. And before I could stop myself I did something I never meant to do. I PUT THE MAGIC FINGER ON THEM ALL!” this shows that she is feisty because the magic finger is something that is very bad so for her to do it so easily shows she is a little feisty.

I really enjoyed this book. My favorite quote is, “ four enormous ducks, as tall as men, and three were holding guns In their hands.” I like this quote the best because I find it so funny it is ducks that are as big as humans I can just envision it and laugh. I really had a good time reading this book.

Zany the Zebra

It was a beautiful day in the Amazon rainforest. Zany the zebra was enjoying his meal. Zany is a very interesting creature he would always sing and dance. But he wasn’t good at it. His meal was a beautiful plate of leaves and seeds but he noticed it tasted funny there was pink stuff all over the leaves it made the leaves sweeter. Zany didn’t think much of it until he took a shower he was doing his daily shower singing and he had noticed that he was able to harmonize better, sing higher notes, and just overall sounded prettier. He also tried to dance and noticed his kicks suddenly became higher and his turns had more power in them. He was wondering how he suddenly became so talented. It took him a second but he finally came to a conclusion that the pink goo he digested earlier must have been a magical singing and dancing goo. He decided he should take advantage of this magical gift. He went in the center of the town and just started spinning and singing. All the animals were very  impressed So impressed they started giving him money. Finally after two long hours of spinning he stoped. He was shocked to sere how much money he had earned. He had so much money he tried to pick it up and take it home but he got tragically buried in it. By this time all the animals left And Zany was alone left to suffer.

Dumbledore Quote

The quote I chose was “Happiness can be found even in the darkest times, when only one remembers to turn on the light.”- Dumbledore. To me this quote means that even when times can seem super sad there is always that one someone that can make things happy again and brighten you up. This relates to me because sometimes I am feeling really sad and one of my friends will make a hilarious joke and make me feel better. This is a fabulous quote and I really like the meaning behind it.

My hero

I really admire my mom. I admire her because she is a fabulous woman who manages work and family time very well. She has a great personality and she is very funny. My mom always knows how to make me laugh. She also does very kind things for people like one time when I was in kindergarten I wanted to bring a stuffed animal for pajama day but I told my mom I didn’t want it because I wanted to seem mature but she could see right though me and she brought me a stuffed animal in the middle of the day because she knew I wanted one and it made me very happy. I love my mom very much and I hope to be like her when I grow up.

Rad Reading-December

This month I read the book The Summer I Fell For My Enemy by Sarah Jane Woodley. The story takes place at the legacy Inn hotel in the mountains. Two students Kiara and Johnathan are both very big rivals and hate each other but they suddenly have to start working together because they both apply for a photography job at the hotel and they become coworkers. they then need to start putting there past of hating each other in the past.

I really enjoyed this book. The author did a great job of making me feel like I was right there with the characters. I could feel the emotions of everyone whether they were full of joy or full of sorrow. She also does a great job of describing the setting and the surroundings in detail.

My personal favorite character from the book is Johnathan. He is a very kind and caring person one quote that demonstrates this is “ Watch it Lucas,” Johnathan said. He raised an eyebrow and looked at me. “You good…” this shows he is kind because he is checking up on the girl when his friends accidentally bumped into her. This shows he is kind because only generous people do things like that.

One of my Favorite quotes from this book is “She just seemed … effortlessly confident.” I really like this quote because it is when Johnathan kind of starts to develop feelings for Kiara. It is the beginning of a sweet romance. That is why I liked it. I really enjoyed this book and can’t wait to read the second book.

 

 

My Word of 2025

My word of intention for 2025 is balance. I would choose this word because I want to study more and do other things less but I still want it to be balanced and equal. I also want to choose this because my goal is to have more of a calm balanced mindset. I want to study more because I want to get straight A’s this semester and if I have balance in my life I can achieve that goal while also still having fun. Balance is something I always strive to have but this year I am gonna try extra hard to achieve it.

Principal for the Day

I would love to be principal for the day! The first thing I would do is go have breakfast in the teachers lounge. I would want to do this because there are many foods in there and I’ve never been in the teacher lounge. The next thing I would do is I would go explore all the areas of campus that students aren’t allowing to go to. I want to do this because I have always been curious what those areas look like. Something else I want to do is get someone to really deep clean and redecorate the bathrooms because they are disgusting. The fourth thing I would is I would build a Chick-fil-A in the school so we can have better food. And the last thing I would do is I would eat lunch in my newly built Chick-fil-A.

Rad Reading – November

This month I read the book The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han. This book is about a girl named Isabel, who spends her summers on the beach every year with her brother, mother, her mom’s lifelong friend and her two sons Conrad and Jeremiah. he has secretly had feelings for both of them for many years and they have never payed attention to her. But one summer things start to change she starts to feel and look prettier, and she notices the boys pay more attention to her. Now she is faced with a love conflict of choosing which one she likes better.

I really liked this book. I liked this book because it was funny at some times and also romantic at other times. the author did a good job of describing. There were multiples moments where it felt like I was right there with the characters.

My personal favorite character was Jeremiah. I really liked this character because he was funny but also sweet and relatable at some times. one character trait I would give him is humorous. in this quote Jeremiah is making a toast to someone and asks what his name is and the guy he asks gets nervous and accidentally says his name twice and Jeremiah responds with ” Your name is Cam Cameron? Dang, that sucks, dude.” this proves his character trait because Jeremiah he obviously knew the man made a mistake but still, he decided to make a funny joke about it. that shows he is funny because funny people make jokes.

I had many favorite parts in this book. my favorite part is ” as we got closer and closer to the house, I could feel that familiar flutter in my chest. We were almost there. I rolled down the window and took It all in. The air tasted just the same. The wind making my hair feel sticky, the salty sea breeze, all of it felt just right. Like it had been waiting for me to get there.” I like this quote because it has good description, and it is a good way to start off the book. I really liked this book. I enjoyed reading it.

What I Am Thankful For.

I am so thankful for many things. One thing I am super thankful for is my family. I am thankful for my family because they are always there for me. My grandparents are super sweet and they bring me so much love. I am also thankful for my family because I like spending time with my sisters. The next thing I am heavily grateful for is how healthy I am a can walk, talk, and I have no sicknesses. The last and final thing I am thankful for is my bed. I really like my bed because it is so comfortable and whenever I have had a long day I just lay down and all my stress goes away. I am thankful for many things but these are just a few.

 

My Three Wishes

I have been granted three wishes! My first wish I would grant myself is the power to control peoples minds. I would want this wish because if I wanted something from my parents I would say things like can I have a thousand dollars and they would give me it. My second wish would be to have unlimited money. I would buy things like a giant house, a golf cart, a car, a dog, and all the clothes I want. My last and final wish would be to talk in every language on the planet. If I knew all the languages I could go to many places and learn many new things. I would also want that wish so I could know what the nail ladies are talking about when they do my nails.
