April Precept

April precept: What is beautiful is good, and who is good will soon be beautiful. – Sappho

A way I would explain this is, that it does matter if you are like August or anybody else because when you have a positive attitude, you are always beautiful in the inside. And in the future you will have more friends and know one will care if you are look like August.  anyone else can act different or mean around you, don’t worry because keep being nice (good) to them, after your friends will help you. Also everyone is the same but in a different way and we just proved that.

A second idea I have is karma. If you stay good to people then you will have more friends people will treat you the same because you proved that everyone is the same, but in a different way.when you are working on something then your friends will come and help or if you don’t need help they will respect that. Now those are my ideas of what I think of the quote.

 

Langley and Maple Ridge

Just last Sunday I went out to Langley and Maple Ridge to look at some houses because I might move one day. We didn’t want the houses. The one in Langley was too old because it was built in 1977. The one in Maple Ridge was an apartment. We didn’t take it because my grandma was going to live with us when we move, but there was no room for her in the apartment. But my mom is still searching for houses that might be good.

Words

I would like all you to know words hurt more than you think, words can kill and words are slowly eating away at me if I didn’t have my friends I would just be a mess but my friends are helping get through the bullies, words, sometimes even life in general, but when I think about the things that go on in this world I realize someone somewhere is going through the same thing I am and that is depression I don’t understand why people make people hurt with just a few words, I hope all of you reading this  didn’t go through depression.

Spring break

On spring break I was sick, but I still had a good time. I liked Easter because there was a trail of chocolate eggs starting at my room and going all the way to my prize. My prize was marshmallow chicks. My grandma was there too.

Spring break is over…

Spring break started, and it ended. Tomorrow I have to go back to school which makes me mad because it reminds me that Spring break is over. However, I did go on a vacation to the Philippines and I passed a diving course so now I’m an average diver and soon I’m gonna get the certificate for diving and then I will be able to dive almost anywhere I want, except in caves because that’s technical diving and to take that course I need to be 18, which is a bummer, but hey, beggars cant be choosers. On a side note I also did my first real dive that wasn’t a training dive, and I saw a lot of fish, and an electric mollusk, and I also saw a fish that looked really close to a lionfish, though I’m not certain, and some of the other divers that went with me saw a stingray, but I had fog in my mask because I forgot to clean it out so I MIST it (bad um tss… and no, I actually did miss it, I just put a pun there cause why not), and the last “coolest” thing I saw was a small slim eel (and the reason I put the word “coolest” in brackets is because everything was cool, its just that I’m writing about the major things that I saw during that dive). And then after that I left Philippines and came back to Vancouver yesterday. I gotta say the plane ride was 11:00 hours long or so but to me it felt like 2 hours or less (probably cause I slept). I also lived on an island so I had to take a boat to get to the main island, and while I was on that boat I saw flying fish jump out of the water. Needless to say, I probably had the best Spring break of everyone in my class, unless someone went to the lottery and won a million dollars, and what are the odds of that happening any time soon? But now, I ran out of things to say, and I would’ve told you a skeleton pun, but you probably wouldn’t find it very “humerus” (ba dum tss)
