Journal #1 QTR2 w/ picture

•  Brooklin (helps with problem in general
• Music (calms)
• Sarah (test)  

     The way Brooklin (my friend) comforts me is when I'm going through something hard, like at home or someone or even personal things. She is always there to help and give advice. I can always lean on her when I'm in a time of need. When it's a problem that I don't want to share or something I don't want to explain to anyone I always turn to music. Sometimes music is the way to go. If there is a song that relates to my problem I probably will repeat it over and over to try and find a positive side. Finally but not least I have my buddy Sarah there to comfort me . When I was worried about a history test I didn't study for, she told me not to worry about it and that is wasn't that big of a deal. So she is also another person I can lean on and she always boost my confidence ! 

"My Name" Poem

Lenaé.

Standing for lime or linden tree.
Limes are so sour just like me.
Green and strong as the linden tree.
Yellow me as the leaves of the linden tree.

Pyramidal shape like a diamond in a rough.
Deep rooted like my name I will never be ashamed, because my mom gave me this name.

Strong as can be, I will never show the weak side bending on a knee.
Stubborn and strong as the roots of the linden tree and the wind sets me free.

Lenaé similar to Jenaé, as sister is to sister, as my mother  would say.
As heart to heart, we will never be apart.
Just as the roots from the start.

Sweet and sour I will always be
Just like the lime or linden tree.
I would never be the same if I didn't have this name.

Journal Entry

     I wake up knowing that everyone else but me is an alien. First thing that comes to mind is my family. I go to check if they are all aliens too. Come to find out they are, even my little brothers and sister. I'm terrified. Trying to figure out what to do. I start packing a bag of clothes and personal items. Then, I sneak to the kitchen and grab as much food as I can carry. I then start to think, where am I going to go? I have to hide. I don't want the aliens turning me into some weird creature. After thinking for 3 minutes, I have come to a conclusion. I chose to go to the nearest water tower and hide. It was high in the air and I wouldn't expect an alien to look for a human being there. But of course the 2nd day up there I was caught and captured by the aliens and the brutally beat me because I hid. Then when that was over they turned me into an alien and I was their personal slave. The End !

journal entry #4

      It all began when I got delivered to this party place store. I got placed on a shelf just like all the other piñatas. I was afraid I would  never get picked because I am a panda piñata, and people usually always pick the horse or donkey looking ones because well that's the only kind u see at a kids birthday parties. As days go by I was  still sitting there. The shelves were getting empty again so the employers ordered more piñatas and of course they didn't order any more panda piñatas because I was still sitting there so they thought why buy more if we can't sell one. I felt so hopeless and useless just sitting there. It was like I was a waste of space. Days turn into weeks weeks turn into months. Until today a women walked in and said "I'm looking for a panda piñata , please tell me you have one? My daughter is in love with pandas and I've been all over the place and no one has one." The employee said "Today's your lucky day! We have only one in stock!" They walked up to me and I thought FINALLY ! IT'S ME BEING PICKED ! I get taken to the register and got rang up. The next second all I know I'd that I'm bring hit by a wooden stick till the candy is poring out of me and I've never been any happier.
