When I feel frustrated


When I feel frustrated,is when I have to clean up my room.When I my mom tells me to clean it or my grandma tells me,when I look at my room,I really see a mess.When I have to do my clothing like fold them I really get tired and get angry because I have to do all that folding and stuff,When my uncle tells me that he is going to work he tells me this,"I have to go to work.so can you do me a big favor,my clothes are in the dry machine,so can you fold them for me?"I really get really angry,but in my head I get really angry,but all I say is,"Okay there's no problem with that."When I'm finished with that,I have to do my bed,and since my bed gets really messy,I have to change the dirty covers and replace it to clean covers.That really takes a lot of time.After that,I have to put the things that are one to another for example,sock with the right sock,it's basically the combination to it like it matches to the other thing with it.Then I have to do the restroom,well I'm not really talking about cleaning it because my mom can do that for me when she gets off her job.I have to put my brushes,my hair spray,and my accessories for my hair and that really takes a lot of time because you have to match them and put them in order......I mean that just takes a lot of time,but that is using your time useful,but then you have homework to do,but that is another story.Anyways,that's when I get really frustrated.

Abraham LiIncoln




Lincoln warned the South in his Inaugural Address: "In your hands, my dissatisfied fellow countrymen, and not in mine, is the momentous issue of civil war. The government will not assail you.... You have no oath registered in Heaven to destroy the government, while I shall have the most solemn one to preserve, protect and defend it."
Lincoln thought secession illegal, and was willing to use force to defend Federal law and the Union. When Confederate batteries fired on Fort Sumter and forced its surrender, he called on the states for 75,000 volunteers. Four more slave states joined the Confederacy but four remained within the Union. The Civil War had begun.
The son of a Kentucky frontiersman, Lincoln had to struggle for a living and for learning. Five months before receiving his party's nomination for President, he sketched his life:
"I was born Feb. 12, 1809, in Hardin County, Kentucky. My parents were both born in Virginia, of undistinguished families--second families, perhaps I should say. My mother, who died in my tenth year, was of a family of the name of Hanks.... My father ... removed from Kentucky to ... Indiana, in my eighth year. It was a wild region, with many bears and other wild animals still in the woods. There I grew up Of course when I came of age I did not know much. Still somehow, I could read, write, and cipher but that was all."
Lincoln made extraordinary efforts to attain knowledge while working on a farm, splitting rails for fences, and keeping store at New Salem, Illinois. He was a captain in the Black Hawk War, spent eight years in the Illinois legislature, and rode the circuit of courts for many years. His law partner said of him, "His ambition was a little engine that knew no rest."
He married Mary Todd, and they had four boys, only one of whom lived to maturity. In 1858 Lincoln ran against Stephen A. Douglas for Senator. He lost the election, but in debating with Douglas he gained a national reputation that won him the Republican nomination for President in 1860.
As President, he built the Republican Party into a strong national organization. Further, he rallied most of the northern Democrats to the Union cause. On January 1, 1863, he issued the Emancipation Proclamation that declared forever free those slaves within the Confederacy.

I want to be a meteorologist



I want to be a meteorologist because you can present the news.I know the problem that when you get up there,you might get really nervous about the people that are going to talk of you that you didn't do it right,you didn't dress good,you didn't do it well,etc.The best part of being a meteorologist is that,you get to tell the people on what will be going on during the week about is the weather is it going to be cold,partly sunny,raining,or snowing,or anything else that has to do with the weather,but that is really my favorite part of telling the news or (meteorologist).The thing that makes me to be a meteorologist is that,you get really trained and when you present it,you wont get that nervous because I really think that when it's your first time doing the weather forecast,I think that they will tell you that is going to be okay or be fine,and that really relaxes you because the other people have already experience,and you know that you can trust them,Then when you do the presentation,you start talking,and then you realize that when you are talking it really feels good.It is also a good and easy job because the only thing that you get to do is to just talk until you get it done,but you will also be happy to yourself because,you are finally doing a job that you ever dreamed of,and that it really came true.My dream is to become a meteorologist.

My best friends

I can really tell you who are my best friends,they are Ashley,and Arlette.They sometimes believe me when I do really promise them something.They are really good friends,caring,fair,and to me they are really a gift that I really deserved those friends and they are like,really good with me and they always promise me what they are going to do.They are really different from the others,(it's really my opinion),but they are really truthful to me or to each other.The first thing that I really thought of Arlette,it's that,in my mind I thought that she was going to be shy and never was going to talk to anyone else,but herself,but that was really the beginning of the year.When I saw Ashley the first time,I really thought that she speaked more Spanish than English,well that was the beginning of the year,of course,but even if I didn't knew her,I knew that sometime she was going to talk to me.When they started to talk to me or to each other,they were really funny when I first met them.We usually tell each other secrets,but we tell each other to not tell nobody because then we will have to be in a fight and if we do tell we wont talk to each other for the rest of the year (school year,the whole semester).Well anyways I am really glad thta I have friends to care for,to look up to,and to have a good friendship.
