This is week #6 of learning how to do an around the world with a soccer ball. This was the last in class time to learn the around the world and unfortunately I could not complete my goal of consistently doing the around the around the world but I did make a lot of progress of doing the around the world and am going to keep trying to do it. My friends told me that learning he around the world consistently took them months to do so it might be a bit out of reach to do it in just six weeks. I also made my board to present at the 20% project presentation night which was on the 15th. So in conclusion sadly I was not able to complete my goal of consistently doing the around the world put I made a lot of progress and hopefully in the future I can be able to complete it.
My Best Memories this Year
This year was so fun but here are my three favorite memories at my middle school this year. My first favorite memory is from my core class it is the 20% project. This project was really fun because I got to choose anything I wanted to do and I choose something that will help me in soccer, tonight we present our project to everybody which I am exited about. My second favorite memory is playing basketball with my friends at lunch. This is one of my favorite memories because we just have fun when we play. Last but not least my favorite memory is cooking apple pie in home economics this was one of my favorite memories because it was fun making it and it tastes really good because the teacher gave us vanilla ice cream to put on top which was so good. So in conclusion my three favorite memories were doing my 20% project, playing basketball with my friends, and making apple pie in home ec.
20% project Week 5
This week for my 20% project of learning how to do and around the world while juggling a soccer ball. This skill is so hard for me to do because you have to get almost the perfect spin on the ball so that you can fully get around the ball. I am so extremely close to getting the skill down but I’m not really sure if I’m going to be able to do it consistently and it is also going to be hard juggle after doing it as well, so that was the struggle for this week. There isn’t any adjustments I need to make except that it might be better for me to jump and get momentum to get fully around the ball as fast as possible. Hopefully in the last week off in class time to work on our 20% project I can get that final stretch and finally do the around the world.
For My Mom
My mom is the best mom I could ask for. My mom is the best, she is always doing stuff for me and my family. First of all she is making a green house is the front yard from scratch she has put so much time into it and is close to being done, she has set up plant pots and a water system for it to. She is also going to build a chicken coop next to just like what my aunt has, which is going to be amazing. Another reason why I have the best mom is because she takes me to practice almost everyday she doesn’t mind taking me and even when the practice is 40 minutes away or even in LA she still happily takes me, this also includes taking me to my games. Another great reason is the she always cooks for the family and puts us before her. She always uses the grill outside to make great food for us a lot she also makes sandwiches for us. For example after school the other day she made me a really good chicken sandwich. The final reason is that she also goes to work to support the bills and be able to get great meals for us everyday. So in conclusion I have the best mom ever because she is making a green house at the front of the house always takes me to my practice and games even if there very far away and makes me and my family food as much as she can.
20% Project Week #4
This is week four of learning how to do an around the world for my 20% project. Which is one of the hardest trick to do while juggling, it is when you kick the ball up and wrap your foot around the world and to continuing juggling. This was the most progress I have made because I was so close to doing the around the world and I think that week 5 will be the week I do it. This week had no struggles except that I wanted to start my poster board which I didn’t have time to start yet unfortunately. I am going to show the videos of all my progress and put it into a video app. This week was a great week for my around the worlds. Next week hopefully I am going to be able to do the around the world and start creating my video to show during my poster presentation.
Rad Reading April
This month I finished reading the book Gym Candy by Carl Deuker. The main character Mick is the starting running back for the high school football team, but there is another kid who is also very good and they are both competing for the spot. So Mick decides to start using steroids to get the advantage and starting split which is not allowed. One time after practice Mick gets called into the assistant coaches room and gets questioned about using steroids because his weight lifting and running speeds were much better than last season so eventually one of his best friends who is the quarterback finds the steroids in his bag and tells him that he needs to talk to him at the beach and when Mick leaves the house he brings a gun. This book was so good especially if you like sports there is so much action and it is almost unpredictable. My favorite character was Drew the quarterback is my favorite character because confronting him was right because there is no way for him to dodge the punishment. My favorite quote from the book was “It was Drew, just as I knew it would be.”we’ve got to talk” he said.” This is my favorite quote because this is the biggest moment in the book and one of the most well written endings I have read.
20% project week #3
This week was another week on practicing the motion of doing my around the world. There were no struggles that I had this week, I practiced the motion of the around the world for a good amount of time. I can tell that I have made so much progress so far and I am getting close to actually doing the around the world. I didn’t expect it to be so hard and especially because I want to be able to do it consistently. I am going to start just doing the around the world the whole entire time and be very focused. I will be doing the around the world at school, practice, and even at home. But I’m going to need to figure out a way to incorporate time to work on my poster board during class which will be hard. So that is my plan to finish my 20% which is doing an around the world.
20% project week #2
Hi this is my second week of learning how to do around the world with a soccer ball. There were not many struggles this week except that most of the time I was shooting around with my friends who are also doing sports related things, which was my fault. But with the time I had to juggle I was learning the motions so most of the time I was dropping the ball on my foot and trying to get around the ball. Then I went into juggling and combing it with the motion. I got a couple of good attempts but nothing that close but it was good practice for learning the motion while juggling. I also am recording my self juggling to put in my presentation to see my progress every week. Next week I will be working on the motion of the around the world but I will be much more focused on my juggling instead of shooting instead.
My Favorite Room
Today I will tell where my favorite room is. This room surprisingly not in my house but at my uncle’s house. My favorite room in the house is the basement, they live in Illinois which is where it is common to have a basement. The first reason why this is my favorite room is because when you walk down the stairs is a turf soccer field. Obviously it is not a huge soccer field but it is big enough. We play all types of games like 2v2s or even 1v1s. We even creat games one of them is called the shootings game. Where you shoot from inside of your box at the other person’s goal and try to score you can also get a rebound and go 1 on 1 with the other person so this is the first reason this is my favorite room. The second reason this is my favorite room because of the golf simulator. Usually it is just me and my cousin playing on it, we simulate playing holes and were pretty even skills wise so it is always fun playing against each other. The third and final reason it is my favorite room is because of the ping pong table, pop-a-shot, and the couch down there. Everyone plays ping pong and the pop-a-shot which not as much as them play but it is fun to play both of them. So in conclusion my favorite room is the basement at my uncle’s house because of the soccer field that we always play on, the golf simulator where me and my cousin play against each other. And the ping pong table where we all play at, the pop-a-shot which we see who makes the most shots in basketball, and the couch when we need a break from these activity’s.
My Concert
If I could invite three people to perform at a concert here are the three people I would invite. First I will tell you about where we would perform, we would perform at rolling loud which is one of the biggest rap music festivals in the world. There would be so many fans there and the crowd would be extremely loud. The first person I would invite would be Travis Scott because he is the best live performer. When he performed he is so hyper and crazy to watch. When I went to his concert it was insane. The next guest I would invite to my concert would be Playboy Carti also know as just Carti I would invite him because he is also one of the most hype performers and when I went to the Travis Scott concert Travis brought out Carti so I would know that they would perform well together. He also features on a lot of Travis Scott songs including “Fe!n” which is one of the most hype and crazy songs it is also one of the most popular songs in the world. The third and final guest I would invite to my concert would be Drake. Drake has a lot of chemistry performing with Travis and Carti. Drake and Travis also have one of the most streamed songs of all time called “Sicko Mode” I think almost everyone who listens to rap knows the lyrics to that song and changed the rap industry. Drake is also arguably the best artist of all time and all of his songs are classics. He has a lot of songs with Travis including Meltdown, Fair Trade, etc. but my favorite song with them is called “Company”. So in conclusion if I were to host a concert at rolling loud and could invite any three guests I would Invite Travis Scott, Playboy Carti, and Drake.
