Favorite Quote (Not Challenge)

My favorite quote is from Walt Disney. “It’s kind of fun to do the impossible.” I like this quote because you working hard and having fun while trying to do the impossible. You know like staying awake all night, it’s possible but you think it’s impossible. I’ve stayed up all night a couple of times but once you do it you feel proud. There are a few other quotes but the one I chose is my favorite. And it’s by a person who I admire for his work.

Chicago History (Not Challenge)

You know about the Chicago Fire? It was one of the most terrible fires in Chicago history. It was from 1871, October 8 to October 10. Rumor has it that a cow started the fire when the cow knocked over a lantern and the whole city caught on fire. Some people jumped into the river, but the water was so polluted that it caught on fire. It killed 300 people and left 100,000 people without homes. It was 200 million dollars in damage. The fire stopped when it started raining in October 10.

TV Shortage (SOL18 5)

So around 2009 my brother and I were in the living room. We were a couple of little boys and weren’t strong, not at all. We were playing Gallina Siega which is just like Marco Polo without saying anything. The blind chicken is looking for you while their eyes are closed. For some reason he got a tennis racket which was too heavy for him. He was in front of the TV. He fell backwards at like the speed of light breaking the TV screen. That TV was mildly expensive (it was 1100 dollars). It was so loud for my little ears back then. He got in trouble and got grounded.

Cutie the Shoe Thief

Ok so one day in 5th grade my brother and I came back from school. We walked back home but we stayed outside to pet my dogs. After I pet my dog Snow I sat down on a bench just looking at Snow. We have another dog called Cutie was looking at my brothers feet. I knew something was about to go down but it was more tragic. So Cutie started sprinting to my brother Uriel. While Uriel was scared Cutie was circling him making him fall down. My dogs are bro and sis so Snow started doing it with Cutie because Snow does what Cutie  does. Once Cutie got Uriel’s shoe she has eating it. Uriel was screaming and crying help but I was just there trying to help but I was too scared. We got his shoe back at the end but it was all chewed up so we had to throw the pair away.

Kite kidnapper (SOL18 3)

Ok so in 2009 I was in a park with my dad, but I was flying a kite. Lucky me it was windy, too windy. I was enjoy flying my kite for the first time it actually worked. Later on there was a gust of wind so strong I was flying. The wind was carrying me away from my dad while he was jumping to catch my feet. I was scared of falling so I held on the kite. The wind got softer gradually making me landsafely. I was so lucky I didn’t get into the trees. I remember screaming so much but my dad got me in the end and we went home after that.

Classroom Switcharoo (SOL18 2)

So on the first day of me going to Emerson Elementary School I went to the “right” classroom or so I thought.  Apparently I went to a first grade class thinking “Oh cool, I’m the tallest one!” There was this girl who was also there for her fist day as well. Through the whole day I was doing first grade thing like counting when I was supposed to be multiplying. After music class my actual classroom looked at me, every single one of them. I didn’t understand what was happening. My actual teacher said you my student.” So I went to the right classroom and went to music again.

“Perfect” Paint (SOL18 1)

Ok so one time in kindergarten (this story is embarrassing) I was very obedient but one time I was drawing a flower I think but got some paint on my shirt so I hid. I was hiding for the longest hour of my life. My teachers called out “Pablo, where are you?” But all I can do was make my mouth shut. I don’t remember this like crystal clear but I think the cops came and at the end of the day I confessed my “crime.” “Please don’t tell my parents, I’m a good kid.” (I was on the verge of tears) My teacher said “It’s okay if you paint on your shirt, but don’t ever do that again.” “Ok.” I said. And I never did that again.
