Trump has banned travel to the US on varying levels for eight other countries unless under certain circumstances. He put out new security measures and if they refused to commit to them or couldn’t meet the requirements most of their citizens aren’t going to be able to travel to the US for a while. Several countries didn’t meet the requirements at first, but found a way to meet them in the fifty-day span they were given and now they can travel to the US. So if you are from Chad, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Libya, Yemen, or Somalia you might want to rethink that vacation.

Today we went on field trip to mom’s womens study. It was fun, we played in there playroom. (It was at a family friends house.) But, between that, playing a game of chess, and going to the library I didn’t get all of my school done. After I got back from ballet, ate dinner, and showered I did more school so all I have left to do tomorrow is math, Bible, and electives.
In English I learned more about character development. I learned about all the ways they make the characters seem real. How they act, react, how others talk about them, and how others act towards them all make them seem more real and add up to make their character. So it is sort of more complicated than just describing them in more detail.
Harvey Ruins

On Sunday, the third of September many people in Huston went back to their homes. A majority of those people are sorting through what to throw away, and what to put out to dry. Officers are going to continue doing door to door searches until they have covered everything that they need to. Churches met, some in their parking lots. They are opening businesses and playing ball games. They are trying to make everything go on as normal as possible while they are picking up the pieces. Several fires happened at a chemical site that got waterlogged and the authorities are warning people to be careful as they are cleaning their houses and to try not to have exposed skin. They are trying to lower the water in overflowing dams. Life is continuing on in Huston.

Today Adi went to gymnastics, she can cartwheel now!!! It is really cool! And after only two classes! I took a video of her doing it, and we will have a ton of fun showing it to her when she is older.
In Bible we learned that if you want to make a habit of reading the Bible you must either choose no Bible, no breakfast, or no Bible, no bed. It is also good to cautiously paraphrase it so that you can remember it, it usually helps people remember things better if they teach it to someone else, or put it in their own words.
I learned about tone in English. You should never use the word that your tone is. Tone is the emotion that it is written in. In writing class I learned that your intro sets the tone for any essay you write. So if your tone is set in your intro, the rest of the paragraph makes more sense.
Petitioning for Police on TV?
by Vwala •
The little rock police department has a shortage on police. And a rise on crime, at the same time. According to officials, they are not directly related, though they are a bit inconvenient. They want about 80 new trainees to fill the positions, 12 of those already being certified police officers. To get the word out they plan to have a social-network wide call to duty. Including advertisements on Facebook, YouTube, and other social medias. The call to duty will also extend to television. It has been publicized on the front page of The Arkansas Democrat Gazette along with the famous “Harvey picture.” So watch out bad guys, the police are upping their workforce.

Today I didn’t finish school because I have a fever. We went on a field trip to Adi’s gymnastics, it was cool. We got color-changing cups with their symbol on it.
Did you know that peace means with, something? Well I guess that means with God!!! Isn’t it cool how much the Bible says and how much their is to still learn about it and who wrote it? Whenever I read a good book, (especially when it’s with C.S. Lewis) I wonder about and wish I could talk to the authors, well this book is one I can talk to the author of, and guess what? He’s my best friend!!!
I revised my essay for LA today and I think it turned out pretty well if I do say so myself.
Fast food? No, faster food!
by Vwala •
The fast food industry is becoming even faster, and sit-down restaurants are trying to catch up. You can now order your food on Amazon, as well as pay for it! You can also order food on Facebook and other social medias. Now that people want it faster, competition to be the fastest has started. There are bots that talk to you, and pick up counters are becoming even more crowded. So there are now no fast food restaurants, there are just faster and faster ones!
BOOM! -Ottis Amber (Week 1 Day 3, Whoopie!)

“Boom, boom boom!” You’ll be hearing this noise soon if Trump’s “tough talk” continues. Officials say that conflict is “avoidable” but unless China prevails in getting Korea to stop working on the development of nuclear missiles they have not revealed another plan. According to intelligence, Korea has not succeeded in forming a missile capable of hitting anything closer than the west coast and to our knowledge it has not been properly tested. But they are capable of hitting Guam easily, so who knows what lies in our future.

Wow! Three days of school already, it is going fast!!! I like making up puns for the number of days we’ve done of school. We went on a field trip to the orthodontist so that Reed could get a wire cut.
LA was easy today. I am writing a essay tomorrow, on the first week! I am probably going to do a lot of fun stuff this year! I actually get to read a bit more than a teeny bit this year for reading, yay! But it does mean that it takes a ton longer to do my reading.
Did you know that the Bible is actually for Christians, not non-christians? It is to tell us how to live, but it is also good for non-christians to learn about Christianity. The word Bible comes from the word “biblo” which means “book,” that really fits because the Bible is The book. The Bible was written in three different countries, with over 40 people writing in it!!!!! Now that is an awe-inspiring book!!!!! We are amazed by Jesus’ miracles but what we should really be inspired by is that He led a completely sinless life, because though He was still God, He was also completely human at the same time, so He was tempted just as much as we are. I know you’re saying “He had an advantage” but no, He really didn’t, He was just as human as we are. I know it’s hard to wrap your head around that concept, but He really was. “I am not afraid of the temptation, I am afraid of the fact that I am tempted to do it” -Vella Karman
In history we learned about the Spanish settling in South America. They stole around 15,000 dollars worth of money in gold from the natives!!!!! And thye forced them to mine it for them!!! I don’t know about you, but I would of made a few complaints about that!
