New Title

Hi, so my dad didn't like my other title's "A day in Quarantine" so I have to come up with a new title. So for my next couple of blogs, I will not be talking about this is what I did today ... instead, these blogs will be much more meaningful. For example, for the next couple of blogs, I will be talking about the Corona Virus, summaries of different books I'm reading over the summer, or tv shows and movies I have watched. This blog will just be explaining what my next couple will be like.

Ender's Game #2

Hi, this blog will be my second summary of Ender's game. If you want to read the first summary I will leave the link below, but I will also summarize it in this blog.

Enders Game is about a kid named Andrew but his friends call him Ender and his sister and brother call him third. When the book started he had just gotten a monitor taken out of his neck, however, he is special because he got the monitor taken out when he six unlike the people around him who got it out when he was 3. However, thirds older brother is very aggressive and almost kills his brother and sister multiple times.

In the third chapter, a soldier comes to take Ender because he has passed the test. The test was to see what Ender would do if he thought the monitor wasn't there and why. What Ender did was beat up a kid for bullying him. However, he already won but he kept on beating the kid up. However, the reason he did it is because he already won the first fight but he would also win the fights after by showing them what he is made of. We then learn a little about his parent's background. By the end of the chapter, Ender chooses to leave with the soldier.

Here is the link to the summary of the first two chapters!

A day in Quarantine pt 13

Hi, so my dad said he is very disappointed in my blogs in this series because he says I don't put enough effort into it. So in this blog, I'll be talking about some soccer skills I've been practicing. There are three moves that my dad taught me yesterday they are ways to get past a defender.

The first move is to let it through your legs then you run and chase the ball, this is useful because it gives you time. Meaning the defender isn't expecting it meaning you get more time to run after the ball.

The second one is your back is facing the defender then you kind of use your butt to cover the ball you let it past you and you run after it. The advantage of this is also time because the defender wouldn't be expecting it and it also opens up space.

The third one is when the ball is passed to you you use your heel to hit it behind you, it has to be at an obtuse angle and then you run and chase after the ball. This one is useful because it's fancy, but also because it's really fast and the defender doesn't expect it.

These three skills help you get past a defender and go to goal very fast, I will be practicing these three skills over summer/quarantine.

A day in Quarantine pt 12

Hi, so I don't have much to blog about so I'll talk about my plans for today. So I'm probably going to do everything I need to do for the day. For example, piano, billiards, SAT and ACT practice, etc. Then once I am done with that I'll probably read more of Enders Game, and 舒克贝塔. Once I have finished reading I will probably just watch tv. Usually, my days would be more exciting but me and my family are still in Quarantine so we are limited to what we can do.

舒克贝塔航空公司 #1

Hi, so this is the eleventh blog in this series. This blog will be a little summary of a Chinese book I have been reading. The books name is 舒克贝塔航空公司, the story is about two mice however in the actual book I have only read two chapters so this blog will be my summary on the first two chapters. So far what has happened is 舒克 is introduced with his mother they go out looking for food however then these two birds start calling them thieves. They also say how mice are horrible and they shouldn't live. This makes 舒克 very sad so he decides to leave his house he finds a toy helicopter and he takes it and flies away. He also has a pilot uniform, while wearing this uniform he stuffs his tail into his pants so no one will recognize him as a mouse. He then goes on to save an ant and helps bees, by doing this he becomes friends with them. However, they do not know he is a mouse. That is all I have read so far.

Ender's Game #1

Hi, so there isn't much to blog about. Last night me and my little brother slept really late because he had to make up a bunch of his stuff. For example, he had to do 200 kicks, 100 sit-ups, 100 push-ups, and he also had to read 40 pages of science. While he was reading his 40 pages of science, I started reading a book my dad introduced to me.

The book is called Enders game, I read two chapters and it was actually a pretty interesting book. It's a book about a kid named Andrew but his friends call him Ender and his sister and brother call him third. When the book started he had just gotten a monitor taken out of his neck, however, he is special because he got the monitor taken out when he six unlike the people around him who got it out when he was 3. However, thirds older brother is very aggressive and almost kills his brother and sister multiple times. However, this is only the first two chapters, as I continue to read the book I'll write the summaries for the chapters on y blog.

A day in Quarantine pt 9

Hi, so this will be the ninth blog in the series of "A day in Quarantine", so the same as all of the other blogs there isn't much I can do. However yesterday I helped my dad by organizing his papers and putting them in binders, however, I had to make labels for the front and side of the binder, I then had to hole punch two huge books. The hole punching took me around 2-3 hours since they were each around 4-5 inches thick which is really big. Just think about how thin paper is.

While I was hole punching the hole puncher broke so I spent 15 minutes trying to fix it. Eventually, I did fix it which is good cause otherwise, I wouldn't know how to hole punch the rest of the papers. I actually found it pretty fun to hole punch, so it's like killing two birds with one stone. I wouldn't be bored and I was helping my dad.

A day in Quarantine pt 8

Hi, so today's blog will be about billiards also known as pool. Ever since Quarantine started I have been practicing billiards a lot. For example, I do a bunch of billiard drills, I also play games against my mom dad and little brother, I also learn different trick shots.

Billiards is actually kind of fun and it has to do with angles and basic physics. For example, if you want to hit the ball in you either have to hit it straight or hit it at an angle. I feel like over quarantine I have truly grown as a billiards player.

A day in Quarantine pt 7

Hi, so today is fathers day! This blog will talk about how my family and I celebrated fathers day in quarantine, this blog will also be an appreciation post for my dad. So this morning me and my little brother and mom made breakfast for my dad after we ate breakfast we played a game of Uno I'm guessing for the rest of the day my little brother and I will do the rest of our stuff then at night we will probably eat hot wings and watch a movie. There isn't really anything else we can do since we are in quarantine.

I just want to say, I really appreciate my dad. My dad does everything he can for my family and I. He is always working, coming up with ways for me and my family to do fun things. Everything he does is for the benefit of me and my family. There is so much I can say but I just want to let my dad know I really do appreciate him and everything he has done for my family and me!

A day in Quarantine pt 6

Hi, so today is Saturday and I don't really have anything to do since I am in quarantine. However tonight there is a party but of course, I'm not going because I'm actually responsible. I wish everyone would realize that as long as people self-quarantine wash their hands, and actually try to be responsible the virus could go away faster. Everyone wants the same thing for the virus to go away however they aren't doing the necessary things for the virus to go away. Anyways because of these selfish people many people are dying. Anyways that is all for this blog thanks for reading!

A day in Quarantine pt 5

Hi, so the same as all of my other blogs in the "A day in Quarantine" this blog will be very boring and short. Mostly cause I am in quarantine and I can't do anything. But here's something even more boring, I have started SAT prep and it is actually pretty simple. I don't really have anything to do so that is why I have started SAT prep early. That is all for my blog today.

I have a picture of mountains because they are pretty, that's really it!

A day in Quarantine pt 4

Hi, so today will be a part 4 of the series "A day in Quarantine". I don't really have anything to blog about since I am in quarantine and I don't really have a lot of things to do. Basically I don't have anything really exciting to blog about, so I will tell you about some of the activities I do at home. For example I play pool mostly cause I am required to, I also play ping pong with my family, play soccer, and go on walks together. That is all for this blog!

A day in Quarantine pt 3

Hi, so you might be wondering why I skipped a blog talking about "A day in Quarantine pt 2", well I did do a blog with this title however I accidentally deleted it because I thought it was a draft even though I had already posted it, and I am too lazy to reblog it so I just skipped it but I did blog about "A day in Quarantine pt 2". So that is what this blog is about how stupid blogger is.

A day in Quarantine

Hi, so I don't really have anything to blog about today since I don't really do anything since we are in quarantine. So today, I woke up ate breakfast, got ready for the day, and now I am downstairs blogging. Since summer started I have been waking up pretty late because there's no need to wake up early anymore. For the rest of the day, I am just going to do everything I need to do then probably just watch tv and just relax. That's really all I do for my days in quarantine.

My day

Today I don't really feel like blogging but I have to blog because my dad is forcing me. So I don't really have anything to talk about because it is summer and I'm in quarantine. I feel that quarantine is really boring and I'm sick of my little brother. I also miss seeing my friends and being able to go outside besides my yard. That is all for my blog today.

Rainy days

Hi, so today I don't really have anything to blog about so I 'm going to blog about what the weather is like today. Today it is really cloudy and kind of windy, to be honest, it's really nice since it's not so hot anymore, but I also wanted to tan today but now that there is no sun I can't tan anymore. But I still feel like it's really nice today since it's cloudy so it's not that hot. Basically, that is my blog today, thanks for listening!

Tanning!

Today, it was super hot so I decided to tan. The tanning lotion I use is Maui Babe browning lotion. Today the temperature was in the high 70's, so it was super hot. I spent around 2 hours tanning 1 hour for the front and another hour for the back. While I was tanning it was super hot so I was sweating really badly. I feel like there was an improvement in my skin tone because I could see the tan lines from my swimsuit. Right now it is about 30 minutes after and I still feel super hot, even after I showered.

The tanning lotion doesn't smell very good but it does work when you are done tanning you can take a shower then put on the lotion that comes with the tanning lotion. Anyways that's all for today's blog.

Thanks for reading my blog!

First phone!!

Recently I got my very first phone! Recently I did really well in my grades for spring term so my parents agreed to get me my very first phone. The phone I got was the iPhone 11, in the red color. I really like it because it's super nice and pretty. I got a wildflower red butterfly case to go with it, I feel like it looks super nice. Plus I have my very own phone now! Sorry this blog was super short my dad is making me blog so this is what I chose to blog about.

Anyways, stay safe during this scary time!
