School Without School

Standard

School is empty; school is in session. We are social distancing, staying in our homes, washing our hands, and finding a new way of life. Days into our Spring Break, the coronavirus spread in the US, particularly Washington, California and New York. Within days, March Madness was canceled, NBA games were canceled, Spring Training was canceled and even Disneyland closed its doors.

The two weeks after our Spring Break, students did work packets at home while the teachers learned how to teach online. Staff meetings are now held via Zoom. Teachers each work in their own homes, figuring out how to move to learn online. They are learning about making videos while wishing they could be back in class with the students. So here we go with our first week of lessons shared only through Schoology, wondering how we will all adapt to the new situation.

Global Issues: Racism

Standard

Racism has been going on for a long time now. Racism is discrimination towards a group of people of a certain race. For example a white guy can make fun of a black guy for his skin color, its not like he can control what he looks like. Racism used to be way bigger, they had separate schools, bathrooms, almost anything if you didn’t look how they waned you to look like it was your choice. Racism is still here today but isn’t as big as it used to be. This issue is all around the world. It is a problem for everybody you can be made fun of for what you look like or talked about rudely because you look like something they don’t. This is a problem and people need to learn to get along no matter what they look like, it isn’t their choice and they shouldn’t be blamed for it.

jimi Hendrix quotes

Standard

Jimi Hendrix was a widely known electric guitarist. The rock and roll hall of fame describes him as ”arguably the greatest instrumentalist in the history of rock music.He inspired the legendary musician Joe Satriani who taught Kirk hammet. So without Jimi Hendrix there would be no joe satriani and without him there would be no metallica.

One of his most famous and REAL  quotes is:

2 – Characters

Standard

Name: Jordan. Species: Homo sapiens. Gender: Male

Meet Jordan, A.K.A, me. He may look like your average adolescent male, but he’s really been through a rough time. He’s also addicted to memes. And by memes, I mean the freshest, newest memes on the market. Like me. Oh, wait. HE IS ME!

Name: Lyli. Species: Felis sapiens. (it’s like humans and cats together because she’s ANTHROPOMORPHIC) Gender: Female

I met Lily when I was 12. The kids in class laughed at her because, well, she’s a cat. But not like your average, four legged, milk loving, meowing cat. She’s anthropomorphic. (Yes, you are reading what you are reading.) But I really like cats so it’s okay.

Name: Kaiden. Species: Homo sapiens. Gender: Male.

You know what? He’s a weirdo in a nutshell. He pranks all the kids at school and roasts the living heck out of Lyli occasionally, and one time, Jordan got sick of it. And that’s how the three of us got suspended. Lyli got suspended because she scratched him in self-defense.

Time for the story. Anyways, here I am in Greenfield, watching the news. When a news report comes on saying “Breaking news! Strange beings have been found seeking around Greenfield City. Locals advise to stay indoors at all times!” I didn’t want to make everyone mad again, but I couldn’t stress how bad this was. So I called Lyli.

Hello world! So for my next How-To video, I will be telling you how to make a magnetic makeup board! It is super useful for helping organize your makeup, or you could also use it to hang jewelry or anything that is magnetic! Hope you guys enjoy!

Materials:

  • Empty Frame
  • Sheet of Metal (the size of the frame)
  • Fabric of Your Choice
  • Spray Glue
  • Magnets
  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Your Makeup/Jewelry
  • Pill/Small Bottles (Optional)
  • Small Pebbles (Optional)
  • Paint (Optional)
  • Frame Stand (optional)

Procedure:

  1. Start by making sure that your sheet of metal fits into the back of the frame. This is the base for our board.
  2. Then take you fabric and spray glue. Follow any necessary steps for the spray glue (as written on the packaging) and spray it all over one side of the metal. Quickly place you fabric tightly down on the metal. (You may need someone to help you with this!) Smooth out any wrinkles before the glue drys.
  3. For extra security, you can hot glue the edges of the fabric to the back of the metal.
  4. Then take any of the makeup you wish to attach to the board and hot glue a magnet to the back. Now you can place it on your board! Continue until you have all your makeup secured to your board.
  5. If you also wish to store your brushes on the board, you can take a pill bottle and paint it or use a small container of your choice and glue a magnet to it. For an extra touch, you can add some small pebbles into the container to hold the brushes upward. (Make sure the container is not to heavy or it will fall off the board!)

NBA All Star Weekend

Standard

Instead of talking about the Warriors game last night like I usually do I’m going to talk about what is going on in the NBA. This past weekend was All-Star Weekend. On Friday is the Celebrity All-Star game and the Rising Star Challenge. The celebrity game is at 4pm pacific time. This game isn’t one of the main events but for some people it is their favorite event. The Rising Stars Challenge is rookies and sophomore NBA players either on the USA team or the World team. This game is very interesting as the rookies and sophomores take this game very seriously unlike the NBA All-Star Game which players do not play much defense. The next day there is three events. The Taco Bell Skills Challenge will take place at 5pm. This challenge is where the guys selected do a couple of dribble moves, pass it in the hole, take the ball up the court and make a layup, and then finally they shoot a three and they go head to head against another competitor. The winner was Karl Anthony-Towns. The next competition was the Three Point Competition. Klay Thompson was the winner. Then came the Dunk Contest. Zach Lavine won it again this year but went through many extra dunks against Aaron Gordon. The next day, Sunday, was the All-Star Game. The West set an all-star record of most points scored by a team in the All-Star Game. Russel Westbrook won MVP again going back to back.

Aqua 8’s

Standard

The Air Jordan Aqua 8’s came out originally in February 1993 for $125.00. They released them again in November 2015 for $190.00 and my dad got them. Michael Jordan wore  these shoes in the NBA All-star game in 1993 in Salt Lake City. There are also other pairs of 8’s like Chrome 8’s, Playoff 8’s, Doernbecher 8’s, Phoenix Sun 8’s, and Three peat 8’s etc. The aqua 8’s are probably my favorite pair of Air Jordan 8’s but comment what yours are. The Aqua’s are the only pair of Air Jordan 8’s my dad has and I hope he will get the Playoff 8’s too. The colorway is pretty simple its black, purple, aqua, and some orange in it on the tongue of the shoe.Most people resell this shoe too about $250.00 but these are shoes that i would not resell I would ware them around. Next week I will talk about  Bred 13’s.
