SBC Week Eight: Travel! ✈️🌆🌌

Hey EDU Blogs!
For the eighth week of the Student Blogging Challenge, I’ll be writing about travel. Enjoy!


Places I have visited before: 

– Japan

– Seattle

– New York

– Boston

– Virginia

– Chicago

– New Jersey


I’m pretty sure that is all the places that I have traveled to in my life. I’m going to explain why I went to these places.

  • I went to Japan more than 20 times in my life, because my mom is full Japanese, and my grandparents live there. It’s so fun to go to Japan, I never get tired of it. I can also travel here a lot because my uncle works at the airline company called, “Hawaiian,” so we get to stand by tickets.
  • I went to Seattle for my dad’s work. He had the choice of taking me and my mom, and so he did! I skipped some school, but I think it was so worth it. It was also my first time going to the West Coast.
  • For New York, Boston, Virginia, Chicago, and New Jersey, I went there with many other people I know. We all went there for a learning trip to the East Coast. It was so much fun, but we had so little time to do anything, and we were all super tired. It’s because all of us got home to the hotel at around 11:00 pm, and slept at around 1:00 am. Then we had to wake up at 5:30 am!

 

This is me on the East Coast!


Places I want to go (and why): 

– Paris, because I want to see the Eiffel Tower.

– London, for the beautiful structures. My cousin went there before, and she showed me pictures of London. It was so beautiful, and she said that the people there were nice too!

– Italy, to paddle instead of walking, and to see the colorful houses. My mom went here when she was younger, and she said it was so much fun! I always dream of going to Italy one day, and I even did some research projects about Italy.

– Indio, CA, to go to Coachella in the future. Coachella was on until just a few days ago, (the 21st) and I so wish I could be there! Blackpink and many of my favorite English artists were there too, and I was so excited when watching vlogs of other people going. 

– South Korea, so I can go to one of BTS or Blackpink’s concerts! Of course, I need to go to South Korea one day, that’s where my idols live!

– Los Angeles, to go to Universal Studios. I don’t need to go to Los Angeles, but it would be very nice to. I’ve seen many pictures and videos of Universal Studios.

– San Fransisco, to see the Golden Gate Bridge. The Golden Gate Bridge is so cool and famous, I really want to see the bridge with my own eyes!


That’s all the places I want to go that I can think of. I hope you guys enjoyed this blog post. Stay tuned, and see you next week!

SBC Week Seven: A Little Bit About Me!💕

Hey EDU Blogs!

I am so happy, because today, we have a wonderful choice between posting about celebrations or doing a free post. BTW: I did a Week Seven Thanksgiving post in the HMS 6th Grade Class Blog. Go check it out! Anyways, I think I’m going to write about myself a bit. I’m a pretty boring person, so don’t be surprised, haha! I thought I should do this because I realized yesterday when I was looking at all my posts, that I really don’t talk about myself much. I just think it’s weird to read posts from people you absolutely don’t know, so I hope today you’ll learn some facts about me!

Random facts about me:

1. My friends describe me as crazy, weird, nice, funny, and kind of smart. <— (I guess for the “smart” part😑)

2. I’m better at academics than sports.

3. I like to listen to music and draw/write in my free time.

4. My clothing style changes often.

5. My favorite foods are takis and japjae.

via “I hart nutrition” This is japjae!      via “pikfly” This is takis!

6. I like to wear scrunchies, necklaces, and bracelets.

7. My favorite subject is math because it’s the most challenging for me. I like the challenging part because if it was easy, I wouldn’t learn as much.

8. I really like to go stand up paddling on the weekends.

9. If I had to watch a sad movie with dogs and a sad movie with humans, I would cry for the dog movie…

10. I actually really enjoy making posts for EDU Blogs, even if it’s not free posts!

11. I’m late born because I skipped a grade when I was younger.

12. When I was small, I was super obsessed with stuffed animals, I had so many of them!

13. I have memorized about three to four k-pop song lyrics. (That’s not that much compared to other people though😅)

14. My favorite plants are monstera leaves and plumeria flowers.

15. I’m super lucky that I have a beautiful plumeria tree right outside my room’s window! Here are some pics that I took.

I also have a crown flower tree by my plumeria tree. Lots of butterflies and caterpillars live there! The third picture is how messy our yard gets… Poor dad because he has to clean it. Sorry, dad!

16. I have very light brown eyes compared to everyone in my grade. I like them!

17. My mom told me that I should grow my hair out because, with shorter hair, I look more kiddy?!

18. I have A LOT of masking tapes. I can’t take a picture to show y’all because all of them aren’t going to fit in it.

19. I can do the “Woah Challenge,” which isn’t surprising because most people can do it.

20. I HATE mushrooms so so so much. ughhhh!


Thank you so much for reading! I hope you guys enjoyed all the pictures and facts about me. Bye, see you next week!👋

SBC Week Six: MUSIC!^﹏^

Today, I will be writing about music for SBC Week six. This post will be very similar to SBC Week five’s post because I also need to do two tasks/prompts. I’ll be doing tasks three and four.

Task three: For this task, I will be telling you guys about three instruments.


Piano

  • The piano was invented in 1709 by Bartolomeo di Francesco Cristofori.
  • Before, the piano only had 6 keys. Now, the piano has 88 keys.
  • The most expensive piano is worth 3.2 million dollars.
  • Pianos are considered as percussion instruments, not string instruments.
  • The largest piano took four years to make- it’s 1.4 tons and 5.7 meters long.

Violin

  • The violin was invented in the 16th century by  Gaudenzio Ferrari.
  • The oldest violin is 273 years old.
  • There are only two types of violins.

  • Over seventy different pieces of wood are put together to make it.

Trumpets

  • The trumpet has been around since 1,500 BC.
  • It came originally from Egypt.
  • A trumpet can play 45 different notes.
  • There is an actual trumpet-playing robot!

SBC: Week Five!

Hey EDU Blogs!

Today’s post will be about the SBC week five challenge. I will be choosing two tasks to write about in this post from a list you can find here. Anyways, the two tasks that I will be doing are going to be tasks two and four. 


Task two: For this task, I will explain my everyday school day.

  • How do I get to school? I get to school by car. My mom drops me off, and my dad picks me up. It’s also very convenient that since I moved into a new house recently, it’s very close to my school!
  • What is my schedule like? Do I have any set subjects at certain times? My schedule changes very much every day. Depending on what day it is, we have different resource classes like Japanese, Personal Fitness and Physical Education, Technology, Research Skills, Art, and Taiko. I have certain subjects at different times of the day all the time. Fun fact: I completely memorized the entire schedule, even the other class’ one too!
  • Do you have one teacher or many? I have one homeroom teacher, but there is also one more teacher for sixth grade as well. In total, we have four main teachers for each core class- Language Arts, math, science, and social studies.
  • What time do you begin and end school? I begin school at 7:45 am and end at 2:45 pm.
  • Do you get to choose what you learn? Sometimes, we get to decide who we want to work with for group projects and also get to choose what topic we want to cover with our group. Most times though, we just have set topics to learn in class.
  • What technology do you have at school? We have a wide variety of devices and technology offered to us at school. From fourth grade and up, you need to purchase your own device to work with. If you forget to bring it or it is disabled, you can always just borrow a computer from our technology class. We do many online games to help us learn things like vocabulary, concepts, and studying.

Task four: What happens at break times?

  • Do you take home lunch or eat school lunch? I always used to take home lunch when I was younger, but my family has to wake up really early to have enough time to make it in the morning, so I just get school lunch. This is a picture of school lunch from last year. I honestly don’t know how I found this in my photos!😂
  • What do you do at break time? Are there any popular games, sports, or activities at your school? At break time, my friends and I usually hang out together by playing games on our devices, eat snacks, study/practice for upcoming tests, and do extra homework. A lot of people at my school like to play basketball and volleyball, but I don’t.
  • What precautions do you have to take from the weather at break times? Hats? Sunscreen? Snowsuits? Is school ever canceled or do you ever have to stay inside? From where I live, it’s always very hot, so some people might put on sunscreen, but most people don’t. We don’t get snow, sadly, so we don’t have any school canceling.

 

That is the end for both tasks. I hope everyone enjoyed this week’s post! It’s getting pretty late where I live, so bye EDU Blogs! See you next week😘
