violin

I like to softly play the violin. When I play the violin, I happily feel the music. I take violin lessons at the Vernon Music School every Wednesday. My goal is to memorize every song I learn. The violin is one very interestingly amazing instrument.

Dear Mother

There are a ton of tough gamblers here but I have made one friend.  His name is Wong Fu.

The food tastes like cow dung.  I miss the nice soggy noodles and sticky rice from home.

 Last week the weather was burning hot.  Today there is a deafening lightning storm.

 Luckily it is Twelve people died, sixteen are hurt, and five are sick.   Wu Fi is sick but he’s getting better. 

 I have made $20 and Wu Fi has made $5. We have both made $260 but Wu Fi needs medicine and it costs $20 a pill. 

The work is excruciatingly painful. Five red beards have gone home because they think the work is too hard at the collecting water station

 a day off, but we only get one day off a week.  We have to work 24/7.

Love Your Son,

Wu Kwazi

I like this verse because it reminds us of the creator.

Jordan

     Jordan is my wonderful, athletic identical twin brother.  He is amazingly gentle with animals. He

also loves to fearlessly play sports like basketball. He also quietly works on school. I hope to stay

loving best friends forever. 

Toby

We got a new cat for Christmas.  He is a handful but he is really cute. We decided to name him Toby.  He is a natural born hunter.😻😼😽

Remembrance Day 

     Remembrance Day is a day to remember those lost in the war. We celebrate on the important day of November 11.  I went to a Remembrance Day ceremony. There was a moment of silence to remember the family members that died. The poppies are symbols of Remembrance Day. And that is what I think Remembrance Day is all about.
