What is your favorite thing to do on a Saturday?  Why?


My favorite thing to do on a Saturday is hang out with my friend. During this activity I usually walk half way and meet him in front of the office to walk to his house.  When we get to his house, boys 6, we get comfy on the couch and watch football. When one game is over we find a new on to watch. I enjoy doing this because I love the reactions of guys and football games, it entertains me. I hope to do this activity again because it bring fun to my Saturday life at San Pasqual Academy.

Dragon Den #9

lePrompt A:  Why do you play video games?  Think about how they make you feel.
Prompt B: Why do you engage in lengthy texting conversations?  Think about how it makes you feel.
Prompt C:  Why do you sleep in the afternoon?  Think about how it makes you feel.



Prompt C:
                I sleep in the afternoon when I have the chance too. I would rather sleep than do homework, because it’s not stressful to sleep.  Sleeping helps me get away from the outside world, where I count as a foster youth, where I have to ask to go buy things. Sleeping is the only way out for me at San Pasqual Academy. I am also tired by the end of the school day, because I would learn a lot in school and its hot up here a lot so I get tired very easily. Another reason why is because I play sports and I have to work out a lot so my body needs it rest, and most of the time I do homework around 9:00PM.

Are friends or caring adults more important to you? Why?


Caring adults are more important than friends. Adults are more important because they can help you out more. If you get put in jail you’re going to need an adult to get you out. If you’re having problems with friends an adult is going to help you. If you need someone to talk to an adult is going to be standing next to you.  Adults know more about life than your friends would and adults won’t tell other people want you say. Friends are helpful at times but not all the time, adults should be more important to anyone.  This is why I would choose a caring adult over any friends.

Would you rather be smart or pretty for the rest of your life?
I would rather be smart for the rest of my life. I would rather be smart because than I would make more money and graduate collage a lot better than just a pretty girl. Being smart is better to me because than if someone likes you, you would know they like it for you and not for your appearance. Also being smart is super great and you won’t need to copy of off other people, you would pass all your classes easy. Being smart to me is making life easy because no one picks on you for being stupid or dumb, you probably will make more money than other people that are only pretty.

Dragon Den #6


This week, our new football field, Field of Dreams, was officially dedicated.  It was built by the donations of many people and organizations.  Last week you received donated school supplies at Shop til You Drop.  How do you feel about the people who donate money and supplies to San Pasqual Academy?
 
The donations to San Pasqual Academy are very generous and helpful. I am very grateful and I appreciate all the things that give to us. When shop till you drop come and we get called in and I see all the clothes, supplies, and when it’s around Christmas the gifts that the raffle out, I get very excited and take a lot of things so that they don’t go to waste. Another special thing that is given to us is the thanksgiving dinner with Jammer, they feed us great food, and a dance crew comes to perform for us, they also have the drawings and side activities that include pictures with the football players.  The field of hope is a big deal for the campus, I am really happy that we have a home field finally. We get to play here and anyone who lives here including the staff get to support the football just by walking across the street and not having to drive to another field.

 What life lesson did you learn the hard way?

A life lesson that I learned the hard way was not to take money out of your saving account when your not allowed to. I learned this when I took out twenty dollars, out of my piggy bank in my house. I now know not to do that because I gained twenty dollars, but then when I was caught, my staff two two weeks of my money earnings as a consequence. I found out that in my saving I had forty-three dollars. I now feel stupid because I gained twenty but lost twenty-three in the end. That is the life lesson I learned, and I now know that I should have not done it.

Dragon Den #3

What was your experience during the major power outage on Thursday night? Write a narrative paragraph with a beginning, middle, and end.  

On Thursday evening, I was at football practice when coach said that they had to go figure out the electrical issue. At the end of practice before we had our team dinner, coach said to the whole team that the power was out. They had generators up at the café though so our dinner wasn’t cancelled. Later that night they opened the café for everyone to hang out at, it was boring up there and really loud so I spent most of the time with Jennifer. I also went to sit in my room where I couldn’t see anything, but out the window. Everyone was allowed to sleep in the living room and I slept near Ems, I was on the mattress and she was on the couch. The power came back around 2 a.m. and I was still asleep, the lights didn’t wake me up.

What is your favorite brand of shoes?  Why? 

 
My favorite brand of shoes is high top Vans.  The high tops that I like are comfortable and look awesome. I have two pairs of Vans that I wear the most. One pair is black and white the other is grey and pink.  I do wear these shoes on a regular basis because they go with a lot of my clothes, like grey and black. I really do like these shoes because they last for a while and don’t cost a lot. If I saw one of my peers wearing this shoe, I would think about buying a pair like them if I didn’t have a pair yet.
