Dodgers V. Giants 2016

                                                                  Dodger vs. Giants

STRIKE 3 AND YOUR OUT!!!

Okay so my Saturday was very exciting because I had my first volleyball game, my brother had his first baseball game, and over all I went to see the DODGERS V. THE GIANTS FOR FREE!!!  

 

In my volleyball game I came late because my brother had Saturday school, we had tov pick up my sister from church school, I had to get dropped off at my cousins/aunts house and she WASN'T READY!! My game was at 1:10 at Winnetka rec. and my brothers baseball game at 1:30 at Nordoff rec. I came late so my spot was taken by my team mate, big mistake. We where losing so many points, and we lost both games. My brothers game went well even though I didn't see it, my mom told me that my brother batted first and they got 5 home runs in total. My brothers team name is "the dodgers" They won 5-2

 

After all that my cousin told me that she would take me and brother to see the dodger play against the Giants(San Francisco) Of course we said yes. They didn't win but I had a great time. Oh and right when we where about to leave I turned around and BOOM Cory Seager hit a home run it was a great experience.

Malibu Creek State Park

                          
                              Malibu Creek State Park is Oh My God the 2nd best Place in the world, of course the 1st best place would be Home Sweet Home......In my opinion



When my family found out about this park my dad was all like " We have to go to this place it sounds amazing"  I love nature and dangerous things that involve nature, like climbing Huge rocks, trees, and mountains.  When we went the first time it was summer and there is a lake to swim in, and there is actually two lakes. A close one but it's really nasty with died shrimp, and a clean one with huge rocks you can jump off of but you have to walk far to get there. We went to the Far one because we were told that the closet one was really small and very nasty. When we finally got there it looked really pretty and had a little bit of people. When I first stepped in the water it felt really gross because of the moss. I saw people jumping off of the rocks. They where only jumping off the middle rock because it was the only one with the safest landing. I really wanted to jump off the middle rock, oh and did I mention I was like 8 when this happened. like  I said I like dangerous things :). My dad decided that he would try it first to make sure it was really that safe. It turned out to be very safe and I got to climb up that rock. It was a little scary because I was small and because I was technically plummeting 10ft  of the rock into water. Now That  lake is so filthy and gross.                                                                                                                                                                              
 

More father and father is a campground where they shot the movie M*A*S*H. M*A*S*H was filmed in Malibu 1972-1983. The final episode was on February 28 1983.

Malibu has many cool things that I really think you should go check out, if you do I recommend that you park outside the park unless you would ,like to pay 12 dollars for park per hour

Volley ball

           I am a volleyball player at Winnetka Rec. center, and have been for past 4 seasons. I love playing volleyball, but I enjoy football better. My volleyball try-outs where on February 15 two days after my brothers baseball evaluations. I am so much better in volley ball then when I started, my bumping, setts, and serving has improved.

A sett is when you  put your hands in a bowl shaped passion and push it up. If you hit it with your palm and just lift it up its considered  a lift, and the ref will/should call it. When it was my turn to show them how I set I was a little nervous because I didn't play volley ball since last season, and I don't play at school. I thought I was going to mess up bad but then I had confident in my self and I did great :) 

A bump is when you arch your back and get in passion to hit it with your arms. You have to arch your back in order to get a good hit.
Arch your back and your feet straight. If you don't arch your back its okay the ref wont call it but the coach will be like " ELBA GET PASSION!!!'' believe me it has happened. When it my turn to bump I wasn't that nervous because im da bomb in bumping, and OMG I was terrible in bumping at first I was the worst bumper. Like I thought I did amazing :)

A serve is when you jump in the air and you hit it hard. When your about to serve you need to get a good ball, have a big jump, arch your back, and swing your arm. You can serve during as game or if its your turn to serve in. There are two ways to serve. Big kids use the hard way,  little kids usually use the easy way but some use the hard way
When I was serving was super nervous because this is where I usually mess up. I missed the first one but then made the second  then missed the last one .

I think if you tried volleyball you will like it to.

Portola Middle School are told to lock down their schools by LAPD due to the threat

On March 6th, 2016 Portola Middle School and other schools nearby we're told  buy LAPD To lock down fully schools due to a threat that was made. A few months ago all LAUSD schools were closed due to another threat that turned out to be a host.


I go to Portola M.S and I am a 7th grader, I was in my honors English class when the principal notified all teachers and students about the situation. My English teacher quickly closed all the doors. Some people where really weird because they have never been in lock down before, and my English teacher explained what it was, what your supposed to do, and told him that we are going to be alright.

After that we spend some time talking about people personal experience with being in an lock down. As time went by my teacher decided to close the blinds. We started to get off topic and really loud which we weren't supposed to, so we told to read our Outsiders book.

At 10:15 is our nutrition time and we where still on lock down during nutrition. My teacher gave us some snacks she had in her cabinet for the ones that didn't have anything. She had Ritz and cereal they give in HR for breakfast. Since it was HR we could play very quietly, and so kids started to play Heads Ups. 


When the bell was about to ring the teacher got an email saying that it was just a few more minutes. A minute or 2 later the principal said on the speaker that the lock down was due to a threat that was made, LAPD said that this threat was a host like the one months ago. All students where told to go to there next class when the bell rang. RING!!! RING!!! When the bell rang I went to my next class, P.E. In p.e we supposed to  run the mile run ,but because of this incident we where going to do it on Thursday. All classes returned to regular time and schedules.
comment one of your lock downs experience :D

to really its scary

          There once was a boy who would always get bullied because he has been living in south Korea for 5 years and still has 0 friends. " I wish tom and Bret would leave me alone for once ", said Erik. Erik likes to draw pictures of demons and conceder them his friends. Erik would have dreams about his friends that would fell so real, he would dream that his friends would scary every person who every bullied him every night and he'd enjoy it. There was the blob, the snow man, and the DUMMY. The dummy was Erik's best friend but also the worst one. One day Erik was sick and tired of always being bullied so he decided to show the bullies his friends. " you see t-this...this is your worst night mare and my best friends", said Erik. " whatever your such as loser ", said Bret as he walked away with Tom. That same night Erik had chosen that he didn't want to live anymore. " I cant take it anymore", said Erik as hen walked towards the window. "so I came to see you and you decided to die on me! ", said a voice. " w-who's there", asked Erik moving away from the window. " it's me papa ", yelled the DUMMY. " papa! Papa! Papa! Papa! " yelled the blob and the snow man. " don't hurt me please", cried Erik. " why would we hurt or best friend and are papa", said the snowman. " .....your m-monsters", said Erik " but also my friends ", thought Erik. Erik decided to take advantage of this opportunity. For the next couple of weeks Erik and his friends would spend hours scarring tom,Bret, and anyone else who had ever bullied him. The dummy would get the worst bullies, but the dummy wanted more. " so papa when are you going to make me like you ", said the dummy. " what do you mean son? ", said Erik knowing what the dummy meant. " wweellll papa I have been her for a while and I need to be like you"...." Don't you think papa", asked the dummy. "You know what son the sounds like a great idea but sadly I'm all done with scarring all these kids"...." But I'll bring you back", said Erik. " but daddddd" said the blob and the snowman. " but nothing, tomorrow will be our last day ", said Erik wondering where the dummy went. " hey papa I'm a human!!!" Yelled the dummy. " don't be silly a piece of s-s-s-skin doesn't make you hu-hu-hu-human"...." Where'd you get that", asked Erik. " from tom he had a lot", answered the dummy. " okay guys I really think you should all get back to my dreams", said Erik " " ha" ......" I don't think so papa", chuckled the dummy. " you have had enough fun", said Erik. " and creppy", whispered Erik. " LISTEN PAPA I WAITED ALOT OF TIME IN YOUR STUPID HEAD AND NOW IM OUT IM NOT GOING BACK IN!!!" Yelled the dummy. " okay then calm down l-lest mess with holly" , said Erik know that the only way to put him back was to burn him. " I WANT TOM AND BRET!!!" , yelled the dummy. " ooh your such a dummy", said Erik sneaking up on the dummy. Just as Erik was about to through the dummy in the fire the dummy quickly turned his head. " WHO YOU CALLING DUMMY!!" ..." YOU DUMMY!!!!", yelled the dummy. After that the lights went out and Erik passed out. Erik woke up an hour later and not on earth, not as a human, but As a dummy in a dream.
