Zachary's Weblog

De' ja vu

Have you ever forgotten anything important? Once at Georgia State University’s Technology Night I forgot something. It was my webloging folder. I freaked out; I thought I wasn’t going to be able to do my best. I said “Awww…man! Now I can’t type my weblog.” But my mom said “It’s okay. The words will come.” That’s exactly what happened too. De’ ja vu!

But I did better anyway. Well at first it was hard to type from scratch but after a little while I started typing like a mad writer, I typed so much my brain couldn’t keep track. I was really going at it; good grief!

Pretty soon I had finished my weblog and I was ready to go. But I got more experience on writing by scratch and I am good at it now!

I am glad that I forgot the folder now! The lessons I learned are making sure that I double check for my things and don’t depend on my parents and to stay calm and things will turn out okay.

The blogs were Backbreaking Backpack Blues and Resolutions in Writing. Well, I’m closing now but I’ll make an even better post next time!

An Unforgettable Day

I experienced a great thing last Tuesday. I went to Technology Night at Georgia State University along with Jose-Juan and it was fun. The first thing I did was responded to a couple of comments on my weblog. Then me and my mom went to get a coke, it was old fashioned by the way. I was amazed of how gigantic Georgia State University is. After I finished one of my blogs I went to get my caricature done and it looked exactly like me too! When I returned Mrs. Davis brought me in a quiet room and asked me a few questions. It was neat how she recorded my voice; the device she did it with was some sort of digital recorder. I saw people in suits, I guessed they were legislators , but I never found out. There was this one guy who was just hanging around the laptops me and Jose-Juan were typing at. He was wearing a black suit and he had a name tag. I don't remember his name though. The food was great, I wish I could eat more but sadly, I can't. It was fun but at 6:30 PM me and my parents had to leave (my dad ate more than a hungry elephant). We left the room then went out the door, I was tired out by the time we were leaving and happy to be going home but we were actually not going strait to my house. We were going to Hobby Lobby. So I said goodbye to the city, got in the car and headed back home.            

                               How cool do you think Georgia State University sounded?

Back Breaking Backpack Blues

I am going to tell you how backpacks can give you shoulder and back pains. While wearing your backpack have you ever had the feeling when your heart beats fast and your shoulders are hurting. If so, take off your backpack. I've had that feeling before. It really hurts, but I just take the backpack off. Scientists believe that heavy backpacks are the reason for shoulder and back pains at a young age. Scientists are also thinking of future backpack designs: wider straps, and advanced pockets. Here are 2 tips to stay backpack safe: keep heavier books in the back pocket, and get smaller note books.

Resolutions in Writing

I am writing a post about my new years resolutions. I have a lot of them but if I tried to write all of them in one blog I would take the whole page. But they are: to create a post with over 50 comments, to make a post everyone in the world would read, and to make a post with over 100 words. That isn't all of them but I could not possibly write all of them. But the big one, the awesome resolution is to get an A+ in writing.    

I am going to achieve my goals, the way I will get 50 comments on a post is by writing a very good blog with no errors. I will make a 100 word post by paying attention to my newspaper article and writing like MAD on my computer, and I will achieve getting everyone in the world to read my post by just being open with my thoughts and showing the world that I have a voice! I will pay more attention in class and show the teacher my best work. That's how I will get an A+ in writing. Well, I'm finished with my new years resolutions but remember to achieve your goals and have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!    

                                          What are your new years resolutions?

The Longer Life

I am typing about how people in Japan can live longer than some other people in different places. A kid named Schuyler made a post. He said:

The TFK team has been trying to discover how people in Okinawa, Japan live 7 years longer than an average person.

I was thinking man, what a good post. That post is good. I was amazed of how good his post was. I thought, Man that's impossible how could that happen.

He also said:

I think it is really cool they can live longer in Okinawa, Japan. Maybe I should travel there when I get older so I can live my life longer. Ushi Okushuima is 103 years old! That is really cool. I hope I will live that long.

Good Idea!

What did you think of my post? What do you think makes people in Japan live longer?
