Ask any question or just lie

If I were Jonas, I would ask any question because you can get anything you didn't know yet and it's also the right thing because you're being honest unlike to lie. It's also right because you can figure out the unknown and if you can't ask any question, you won't get answers so that's why it's better to ask any question instead of to lie.

Journal Entry: The very last.... i think

As for my last journal entry, I would write something that's good...... or maybe not. Still, like as always, I don't know what to write. I'm not in the mood for writing something anyway. Or am I? 

 I'm really nervous of the VPA concert which is gonna happen tomorrow and the day after!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even, if I'm still prepared of what music i'm gonna play, i'm somehow just nervous. I couldn't think of anything else to write........ I don't know wat to write. and at the tournament, my team ended up 2nd place. Couldn't think of anything else. I don't know what to write now, since summer is getting closer. Now with that coming, I could just sit back and relax.

Jonas' Journal Entry

Dear Journal,
It was confusing of how I got to be the next Receiver of Memory and I shall got it. It started at the Auditorium and it happened at the Ceremony of Twelve when we, the Elevens took our seat in our number order (Our number is our birth number). The Chief Elder called out our names by number except she skipped mine. I really felt humiliated that all of my friends, including Asher and Fiona had their own Assignments except for me. Then the audience was confused that the Chief Elder skipped my number, from 18 (Fiona's number) to 20 (Pierre's number) so the she called me out and she announced that I was the next Receiver of Memory.

Journal Writing: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Today, I'm gonna write about........ uh....... let me think. Aha! I'll write about Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! Today in Drama class, we watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (which was the older version by the way) and it made me so hungry! The wafers, the chocolate bars........ ugh, I'll feel sick after 5 bars I think. But we only watched halfway (to the part when Charlie discovers that he has the golden ticket); and I like the newer version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory because it has better graphics. But still, the old one was actually pretty good. Well, I think that's all I can tell you. Uh..... (how do I wrap this up?)..... ummm..... well, see ya down the road.

Psych

Last friday in class, we watched a TV show called Psych. It's about this guy named Shawn Spencer who acts as if he's psychic and he solves mysteries with his part sidekick, Gus. In this episode of Psych, there was a murder where a rich family's son died. Then, Shawn and Gus goes to the crime scene (which was a house to be exact) where he died. Shawn then, finds clues like a broken coffee maker, a gun and blood on the corner of a diner table. The rich family's son wasn't the only one who died in the crime scene but he's also accompanied by a friend of his who got killed too. Then, Shawn and his buddy, Gus found out that there was some kind of ransom and it was in the family's son's sister's bag.  She was about to give the ransom to a guy who works at a store (where they sell things that were donated to the store) until Shawn jumps into action and then takes the ransom bag but he was caught by the sister. She said that there was no money inside but Shawn denied it and he opens the bag but it turned out that there were clothes inside! Now that's a red herring! Then later, Shawn finds out that it was the father of the rich family who did it! How? In his mind, he finally brought all the puzzle pieces together. It starts like this, the father comes in the house and beats his son up to teach him a lesson. He keeps on beating him up until the son's head hits the diner table and his head starts spilling blood. Later the son's friend starts coming in and he saw that his friend's dead and the father killed his son. The father was too scared because the friend might go 911 so he immediately grabs his gun and starts pointing it at the friend. The friend of course starts putting his hands up and the father commanded him to sit down on the chair. After that, the father just shot the friend, and then, the father puts the gun on the friend's hand so the police would think that the friend shot the son. When Shawn finishes the story, he calls the police and they arrest the father. The crime is the murder of the rich family's son and his friend, the detectives were Shawn Spencer and Gus, the victims were the son and his friend, the villain was the father, the suspects were the son's sister and the father and the witness was the dog who saw the whole murder and it was watching from outside the window.

Monk

Yesterday in class, we watched a TV show called Monk. The reason we watched Monk is because we have a Mystery unit and also because we have to see if there are any elements of a mystery in it. In this episode of Monk, there was a baseball match (or was it practice?) and one of the baseball players named Petey hit the baseball which went flying up in the air (it's out of the park!) and over the baseball arena. The coach told Petey to get the baseball but when he was there, there was a cadaver (hands shaking) of an old lady named Mrs Murphy. You may think that's the crime but it actually isn't. And then a couple went to Mrs Murphy's house and they found a voodoo doll of her. A week later, the same thing happpened to Ralph Ferris because he got shocked by lightning and then a voodoo doll was sent to him. And then paramedic Angelines uncle died and there was a voodoo doll. She was weeping about her own uncle and she brought in good luck charms but Monk noticed that a horse shoe decoration was upside down (because the horse shoe acts as a bowl which holds good luck but since it's upside down, it pours the good luck out). Now that's the crime! It's up to Adrian Monk to find out who was the killer of Angeline's uncle. But his assistant, Natalie received a voodoo doll and she was scared! Monk tries to tell her that it's all fake. Still, she was still frightened. Anyways, their first suspect was the shopkeeper of this freak shop (which has voodoo dolls in it) but he said he didn't do it. Later, Natalie was still scared so the shopkeeper comes in and tries to check what's wrong. He said that she's cursed and he'll take it out. So he puts all these disgusting ingredients all together in a bowl and then Natalie started drinking it! The shopkeeper said that it's supposed to be for her neck because the curse was to chop her head off. Monk calls 911 and then the ambulance arrived. Then Angeline (she was a paramedic, remember?) and some other guy carried Natalie into the Ambulance. Then Monk finds out that Angeline was actually the killer and the voodoo dolls were red herrings and then he goes out to chase her with the shopkeeper. And then he catches her. So, yeah, the episode has a surprise ending.

The Plastiki

The Plastiki is a catamaran with a hull made out of 12,500 bottles filled with air, and it was set sail from San Francisco to Sydney. The voyage was lead by David Rothschild who was the founder of the plastiki and he is also accompanied by 2 of his crew.  On the boat, they have solar panels, a vegetable stand so they can have food during the voyage and many more things. They're trying to tell everyone to recycle their own plastic bottles just like they did. That's why they invented the Plastiki.

Journal Writing: Sick!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry bout the last journal writing i wrote. it sounded crazy and I'm not gonna try to make a think, think, think part 3 to all of you who hated my previous journal writing and I'm saying sorry to the people who loved my previous writing. Anyways, I think I'm  gonnna write what i did when i was sick. Starting from the day before, after spanish class, i felt really sick so i went to the nurse. they said that i had tonsilitis( which i kinda normally get when im sick). Tonsilitis is this illness where your tonsils hurt ( that wobbly thing that hangs above your tongue just like in the cartoons and when Buck from ice age 3 was holding on that thing to get out of rudy's tooth) and you get fever too. my mom told me to gargle with this glass of salty water and to drink ginger and lemon water. day 2 or tuesday, my fever was gone but my tonsils hurt really bad more than the one in the first day. I asked nick wats the homework and then i did the homework like as usual except i didn't complete all of them and then i rested a bit and then slept. day 3 or today, I felt completely well!!!! and that's how I ended up sitting on this blue chair, with my hands on the laptop in q2 in middle school in cilandak in jis in jakarta in java in indonesia in southeast asia in asia in the world. actually, it isn't that wobbly thing but it is between its two sides.

Journal Writing: Semester Break part 2 (only part of it)

I can't show part 1 because it's classified and the second isn't quite as secret as it is. The semester break I'm talking about is the one last year in October. That time, we landed in the Philippines (I and my dad only, my siblings and my mom are in Indonesia), and my grandpa was waiting outside. Then, we went to his house where my grandma and my uncle and my aunt and my cousin were. They actually missed us! We ate breakfast (It was 6:30 in the morning and we left Indonesia at 2:00) and I played PSP. I can't remember the rest, sorry about that.

Why is Haiti so Poor?

1) First of all, at 1930s, Haiti used to be one of the richest lands until other countries took over and they controlled it such as France.
2) The food prices increased which doesn't help the Haitians because they can't afford it.
3) Another reason is that they used to have popular coffee exports but soon, the worlds coffee prices went low and Haiti gets less money.
4) So, they decided to make corn, peanuts and bananas to feed and raise their families, until someone came to them and taught them how to make charcoal instead. They agreed but they didn't think about what would be the results, like less trees, less water and less food, and less forests.
5) Another reason is that they can't get fish because soil erosions swept them and the coral reefs away.
6) Their religion, Voodoo, causes them misery because they have to do painful punishments.
7)  In Haiti, there is less rainfall which makes the plants have malnutrition which makes the animals starve and they die leaving less food, and there are less trees due to soil erosions.
