When I first arrived in August, I expected I would do all of my homework on time and not just leave it and do it at or after the last minute. I mean there can’t possibly be that much more homework than last year, right. that’s what I expected, not what happened. I couldn’t believe it. there is five times more homework than last year. I can’t finish this on time if I tried.

By October I had no free time at all. I was swimming in homework and I could barely finish half of my homework. But eventually I figured out that there was a way to end all of the chaos, and that was to wait for June. June was my only escape route, my only savior, my only hope. I am almost there. Just a few more weeks.

In seventh grade I learned that no matter how hard you try homework will be my doom.

A long time ago in a country far away I spent thirty glorious minutes making my favorite toy, a Gundam. Now you probably don’t know what a Gundam is. Well, a gundam is a Japanese toy where you craft a plastic model of a robot.

I’m sorry, that didn’t tell you a whole much did it. Well you probably won’t get some of the things I was going to say so I’ll try to tell you so you understand. It’s all from based on a tv show where there are giant robots that people… I guess drive, kind of like in the movie “Pacific Rim” if you’ve seen that. Well, anyway those giant robots are called Gundams and are used to fight a war against people who have Zakus which are pretty much the same thing as Gundams except they don’t look alike at all. Well, anyway there are many different types of Gundams and my personal favorite and my first Gundam was the rx-78-2 Gundam which is one of the most basic Gundams and is the most well known in Japan. Anyway, here’s a short description of my Gundam; the rx-78-2 Gundam had a ray gun, two laser swords, a bazooka, a shield, and a small fighter jet. All Gundams are built the same way you would build a model car or a model airplane except it has the shape of a robot and you don’t need any glue. That’s pretty much all I have to say about Gundams. Goodbye.

Dinosaur bones, DNA statues, and evolution models; this is the Texas memorial museum. I honestly didn’t know what I was going to write about until I saw the shelf of animal skulls at school which reminded me of the museum. It has been a long time since I’ve been there but it still remained my favorite,partially because I haven’t really been to that many places in a while.

My favorite parts of the museum are the ice age animal skeletons and the Jurassic animal skeletons. I’ve always been fascinated by animals and I like extinct animals a lot because these are the only animals that I haven’t really seen before, and people have drawn pictures based on the skeletons but who knows how accurate they really are. But the skeletons are one of the closest things we have to actual extinct creatures. And the skeletons are interesting how there so similar but so different to modern human and animal skeletons. I also like the genetics and evolution statues and how humans were mutated from monkeys and chimpanzees.

This was my talk about the Texas memorial museum and how it is my favorite place in Austin. The end

End, come on end, went through my head. “This concludes the pep rally …” Said the principal. YES I’m free finally free. The principal’s voice came back, “I’m sorry someone tripped on the chord. Anyway as I was saying this concludes the pep rallie’s first two minutes”. IT’S BEEN TWELVE HOURS NOT TWO MINUTES. I’m going to go crazy and deaf. “There are still three hours left in the pep rallie”. That was the last thing I heard when … BOOM my head exploded and I died. Ok that might have been an exaggeration but the point is I hate pep rallies.

Let me paint you a picture, you’re on the verge of being deaf and you have to sit there bored and listening to people scream for hours. Yeah, not that great if you ask me. And it’s always about something people don’t care about like the … Sorry, no matter how loud it is I never listen to what they’re saying. Anyway, no one ever cares about what the teachers are talking about but most people just scream and make worse for everyone else.

Which brings me to the three different kinds of people at pep rallies. First let’s start with my least favorite,the screamer, this is basically the guy or girl who doesn’t care about anything but screams at the top of their lungs every twelve seconds. Then there are the enthusiastic people; these are the kids who actually enjoys becoming deaf and bored to death, they also yell but not like the screamers. Last are the ones that are like me and actually sane, these people sit in the corner trying to avoid sound and is waiting for it to end.

You may say “it’s not that bad you get to miss regular class”, well I’m with you on missing class but is it worth giving away your sense of hearing and dying of boredom just for less class, I don’t think so. You may disagree but I personally hate pep rallies.

When life gives you lemons you make lemonade, wrong, you fight back and make life take the lemons back. You got to stand up and yell “what am I supposed to do with these lemons you’ve given me life. I don’t want your filthy lemons, do I look like a lemon factory to you”. Then you and life get in an argument which turns into a battle that will last twenty minutes or so, and eventually life will win.

The moral of the story; when life gives you lemons you just got to eat them, and if you don’t want to eat them life will shove them down your throat.

None of that made much sense did it. Well you can’t just make anything sour and just make it sweet how does that even work people. So you can’t just sit down and watch while your life gets sour you got to fight back.
