Art Eye Drawing

This is my eye drawing. While making this I had a little bit of a challenge while trying to get the wrinkles under my eye. It was also a little bit hard for me to get the colors right because I was only using black and different forms of grey.  I am really proud of this eye and I can’t wait to start the colored version on the iPad.

“But both of us know that their ways are strange, and there are unimaginable things to cry about, Phulan cries herself to sleep.”

 

I shiver, i’m cold, my teeth chatter, it is not cold where I am, but i’m drowning in a pool of cold tears. I don’t know how I can continue to live like this. Continue with my life being set up for me, not having a choice about how I will live. But I want to live well, I want to grow up and have as many sons as I please, I want to marry whoever I want. But I do not have that choice nor does Shabanu. Mother didn’t have that choice, that choice to be free, free to be with whomever she wished. I want to be free. But the thought of knowing that I can’t be free, and the thought of knowing that I can’t be happy with whoever I want. Slowly shuts my eyes and makes everything dark, it’s as if i’m seeing my soul and how dark, stormy and filled with sorrow  it is. But I know that it’s just my eyes telling me to relax and let go and to sleep a good night’s sleep. And to have some hope, in my mind and in my heart that everything will be okay.

HELP

My hands are grasping to Shabanu’s i’m so scared that I just don’t want to move but I know that if I don’t move they will get me, then after they get me I wouldn’t be able to move because I would be to scared to do anything. I look around and see if there is anyone who can help me and Shabanu, but it’s as if there is no one else alive, no one else living here or anywhere. But I know that people are there i’m just too scared to see them.  My heart is pounding i’m sweating and I feel as if i’m about to cry myself a whole river, for the second time at first I found myself crying a river in the safety of my own home, crying a river because I was afraid or worried. Now I find myself crying a river right here where everyone could see me I don’t know which one is worse. Which reason is worth crying for, all I know is that I can’t move but somehow I find myself moving. 

Science – Second Trimester

In the second trimester I think that I improved a lot in science.  Although jump rope hasn’t been updated yet, I know that I am doing better based on how I am doing on my tests,  and based on how well i’m answering questions in class and I understand everything that is going on. I challenge I have in science is working with others. I personally don’t like working with others at all.  I would rather do my own work and express my thoughts alone.

Knight Monologue

The flat side of the sword hit my shoulder, it slighty brushed against the side of my neck like a poison ivy leaf pleasant  to look at unpleasant  to feel. Be strong I said to myself i’m a boy now, boys don’t cry. At that very moment I had flashbacks of my young life before,  forget about the sewing forget about the cooking for get about the ideal life of a women. It’s over now things have changed, I have changed and I will never go back to who I was before. I have spent to many years preparing for this I have committed many sins all for this, all for what I want to do in life. All those years everyone thought I was in a guild doing what “girls” do. But I fooled them all I didn’t want to make things for men who are so self absorbed to even realize what’s going on. I wanted to save people so instead of working in guilds I started training. Harder and harder each day. It wasn’t easy but I wouldn’t give up.

Look at where I am now standing before one of the most powerful people the King. A king who doesn’t realize that I am his precious daughter who was so nice and kind who never lied. But he thinks she’s gone, him along with many others, he thinks a peasant killed her. Now a peasant is lying in a dungeon starving. But that’s what men get! They’re just so selfesh they don’t realize that they can be and do whatever they want. But I can’t.  I look at him and I want to say “Father” but I can’t. I would blow my cover, but for now I say father in my mind and I know he thinks of me everyday. 

My Code Of Arms

This is my family’s coat of arms. In the middle i have a shield outlined in black, I outlined it in black because black represents constancy. And my family is very faithful and dependable. On my shield I have a blue cross. I chose the cross because it shows that I am christian, I made it blue because blue means loyalty and my family is very loyal. In the left top hand corner I have a black and white panther. I chose the panther because it shows that my family is fierce but still care about each other. I made it black in white because it shows that my family has peace. Next to it I have a white rose which represents peace and sincerity. On the bottom of that I have a fish which represents  a true, generous mind; virtuous for himself, not because of his heritage; also unity with Christ, spiritual nourishment, a scallop’s shell  which represents that we love to travel to far places, a sphere which represents geographical or scientific reference, and a leaf which represents  eternal and affectionate remembrance. To the right of my code of arms I have a unicorn which represents  extreme courage; virtue and strength. And to the left of my code of arms I have IV fortunatus, numerus estin IV quod suus ‘ a numerus repraesentat nostri. Which means 4 is our lucky number, 4 is what represents us. I wrote this because in my house there are 4 people living there.

I Made…

At the camp I go to it is a tradition to have a special day dedicated to being creative, we’re called creative arts and athletics for a reason! Hat day is a day to make  hat of any kind of any theme and bring it into camp.

In camp we have  groups of kids with a group leader. On that special day first thing in the morning campers would go to a table with a name tag and name their hat, since my hat was a beach theme I named it Under The Sea! After you named your hat you would go sit with your group then that hat day parade began! Everyone sat in a giant room and at the end of the room their was a panel of judges and a radio playing music. The judges had pieces of paper and they wrote down what they thought of each person’s hat! Since there are a lot of people in the camp, kids would compete with the kids in their group.

The judges would choose who they liked best! After the the judges saw everyone’s hat kids would go about their day as if it was a regular camp day. After lunch everyone in the camp would go the cafeteria and get ice cream so many delicious flavors and toppings! Then you would go off to their next class. At the end of the day everyone gathered and the winners were announced In my group I won!!! Each person who one got three packs of skittles yay!

 

You all heard about the actual hat day but let me tell you about my actual hat! At first I didn’t know what  the theme for my hat was going to be. I thought for a little while and I finally settled on a theme, many different themes all in one hat!  I was going to call my hat Another Kind Of Crazy ! I had everything planned out for my hat I was going to divide the hat with pipe cleaners and put the name of the theme of that part of the hat on the top with a mini chalk board. I was sure that I wanted to my hat like that so

I went to michaels. Once we were there my mom asked me the question “What is going to be the theme of your hat?” I looked around aimlessly and I finally came to the conclusion that my hat was not realistic so I said I don’t know! So she said well there’s a lot of stuff here about the beach maybe you could a beach hat ! A beach hat I thought to myself okay!

Let’s do a beach hat! First I bought a base for my hat I chose a brown foam cowboy hat. Then I saw a pack of sea shells and I decided to get those. Then I bought some Blue glitter glue, regular glue mini fish, sharks and dolphins. Then I saw the coolest thing a felt crafting kit! I got two kits one to make a crab and the other to make a purple clam. I also saw a kit to make a octopus! I glued all the things on my hat it took quite a long time to dry because I used a lot of glitter glue as the water. Once my hat was finished my mom said that it was missing something so we added some moss and rocks and then it was a real beach hat! https://drive.google.com/drive/my-drive

Summer Reading

This summer I read The Diary Of Anne Frank. Anne Frank is a jewish girl who sadly happened to be caught in World War 2, between  Adolf Hitler and his army of  Nazis against the Jews. Her diary was found in the attic in which she spent the last years of her life. Anne was born on June 12th, 1929 in Frankfurt. By this time Hitler owned most Europe. Her father Otto Frank did not wait for the the Natizs to force them out of the their country. In 1933 the Franks left Frankfurt. Mrs. Frank and her two daughters Margot and Anne joined her mother (their grandmother) Achen, near the Belgian border. Meanwhile Otto Frank went directly to Holland. There he became a worker in a food products business. In the spring of 1943 the Franks reunited and settled in Amsterdam.

Everything was going great Anne was living the life of any other Dutch girl. But all of the changed in 1940 when the Germans invaded Holland. That’s when  all the anti-Jewish rules were placed and Jews were sent to extermination camps. The Dutch protested and striked but there was nothing that they could do. In February 1941 the Nazis launched their first roundup of Jews in Amsterdam. From there they were sent to reception camps at Westerbork and Vught and from there shipped into eastward in Germany. The roundups kept continuing and that’s when Anne’s father made arrangements to go into hiding. On July 5th, 1942 the Germans summoned for Anne’s 16 year old sister Margot to report to deportation. The next morning they went into hiding.

After being in hiding for a couple of years they heard the good news that they were going to be rescued. They were so happy they even started making plans of what they were going to do when the returned to their normal lives. There were death threats against Hitler unless the Nazis surrendered. The Germans did not surrender.  Many other countries helped  the English defeat the Germans, but sadly they were not able to rescue everyone.

Everyone like Anne. Anne and her family were selected to be moved to Belsen in Germany. On there way there Annes mother died. Her father was lucky enough to be rescued by the Russians. In Belsen Margot got sick sick and died. Anne was not informed of her sisters death but once she sensed it she died shortly after. Weeks before the war ended.

What would happen if all the humans in the world disappeared?

What would happen if all the humans in the world disappeared?  Would there be anyone to take care of our animals? The answer is no!  The animals would have to provide for themselves there would be no one to feed them. What would happen to all the things humans strived to make ? Since there are no humans everything would stop working the world wouldn’t know what to do so it will just stop.

By Shariqua Ahmed on April 13, 2016

This is an article in which a man named Narayana Peesapaty in vented Edible  Cutlery in India.  He thought that using a fork or spoon once was just unacceptable.  That gave him the idea to make Edible Cutlery.  

He made them in different flavors such as…  Sugar, ginger-cinnamon, ginger- garlic, cumin, celery, black pepper, mint-ginger, carrot-beetroot.
