Kid Nation

We are watching a show to were these kids are going to try to remake a town. the oldest kid just turned 15 and the youngest just turned 8. They have a town council and they are in charge. Now they have to bring a wagon a couple miles down a fence line to another town. They are handling goats. Every week the student council will pick a favorite kid that gets a "gold" star. They cant tell anybody about the star because they don't want to cause any trouble. They are now pulling wagons across this road to this different town. When they get there, there is nothing in the town. They found a couple of thin mattresses that they have to sleep on. The leaders are turning to get every in order. Now they are trying to make dinner. They tried to make mac and cheese but that didn't work, so they dumped it out and actually went by the recipe. They are were very nervous about their food because it wasn't cooking. Now the youngest leader is having a tough time getting settled in. One of the kids are thinking of quitting and one of the leaders is really stressed out and disappointed. Now its day 2 and they are starting to cook breakfast. All of the kids are very hungry and some didn't get any food. A lot of kids are arguing an upset. Now the kids are thinking that the leaders need to get some order. During the meeting Mike was getting up in one of the leaders face. Michael got up and told the kids about the bigger picture. Mike and the leader had a talk about what happened at the meeting and they are still mad at each other.
      They kids are now making 4 distracts and picked the kids into their distracts. They all got settled in and they found Jimmy crying because he feels left out. The leaders are trying to make the kids feel the best at home. The blue team has written on some of the signs with chalk. Some of the kids think that the older kids have done it.
      They are trying to figure out who will clean the toilet. All of the kids are in a meeting with the head guy and he is talking about all of the jobs and stores. He is also telling them about the chore money and stuff. They are going to have a show-done to see who will get  the upper class. The Red distract won the upper class and the Blue won 2nd place. The Yellow distracts won 3rd place and the Green distract got last place. The whole team won the full reward because they finished the full game under an hour. They have choices of what they can choose; 7 out-house or a TV. It's something they want or something they need. They are trying to decide what to do. They picked the 7 out-houses. Now they are assigning jobs and doing their jobs. The Yellow teams breakfast was amazing. The blue team has all of the stores. The Red team passed out all of the money. All of the kids are going into the candy store and every other store. The blue team opened the stores. All of the Red team are spending their money. One of the Green team just bought a old fashion bike. She only had 10 cents so she danced to get some of the money. Jimmy is thinking of leaving so the boys are trying to convince him to stay.
        Now the leaders are and the council are at a their first Town Hall meeting. Some of the kids are speaking out and trying to make everything better. The main guy is asking if anybody wants to leave to go back home. Jimmy raised his hand, and he really wants to go home. All of the kids tired to convince him to stay but he really didn't want to stay. All of the kids didn't want him to leave.
      The council is about to give out the gold star. The council picked Sophia who is on the Green team. She really is happy about this and she feels good. The main guy says that the gold star is supposed to be $20,000. Now Sophia is allowed to call her parents and tell them about what has happened. Sophia told her mother that she won the $20,000. She was really excited.
     The council is getting everything in order and are having a lot of fun now. The kids are excited that they stayed. The kids are having a lot of fun.

Basketball Game

Last night I went to a high school girls basketball game at Jeffco. All of my friends were there but I couldn't sit by them because I was with my cousins and they didn't want me to leave. The game was amazing. I was so stressed out. I wanted them to win so bad. They lost 49 to 45. One of the girls on the other team was like 6'2! She was really tall and towered k over everybody. My meme and my papa took me to the game. We met my uncle and 2 cousins there. we had a lot of  fun at the game. Their season is over now that they lost against Battle. It sucks losing a game.

Something That Bugs Me

Something that bugs me is mouth noises, annoying people, and pen tapping. I hate it when people do mouth noises. They click their tongue or chew gum with their mouth open. Annoying people get on my nerves . I just want to scream shut up in their face. When people pen tap they think they are cool because they can make noises with a pen. They pen tap when the teacher is talking too. Its so annoying.

Disney World

Next summer I might be going to Disney World. I cant wait because we went one year but it was really hot and they have a lot more now than when we went. I am going to ask my mom and dad if we are for sure going and then I'm going to get us flights, find hotels, and plan what worlds we will go to on certain days. I would like to plan what we would do at those different parks. I love planning out stuff like this. I need to know what we will do on that certain day, what we would ride, how to get there, and just stuff like that.

Special or not

Picture From Here

I think that the U.S. is right. If everybody is normal then how will you tell people apart and if you love somebody then you could also be loving your neighbor. It would be the same thing. I think that you can be special but different kids of special. If we were all the same kid of special then it would be actually what the Europeans are saying. You can be whatever you want however you want. I think that the world wouldn't be very exciting if the whole world was the same and nobody was special. Special doesn't have to mean brain wise. It can mean like your personality and your characteristics. Always be unique.
