Yesterday I was learning aboout Sweden and found out about the coolest thing ever! Once a year in a city call Jakasjarvi a bunch of archetects come to make a life size hotel made of ice!Whats really cool is that you can even sleep in a bed made of entirely ice every thing is ice! I also found out that the arora borealis can be seen from a hotel window (if you can stay awake long enough).

Testing

Last Saturday I tested for my blue belt it is the sixth belt and I only have four belts until black belt. It was quite exciting! My instructor told me I needed to write an essay on self control.I ended up two days before testing.Here it is:
Self Control
There are seven tenants of taekwondo they are: Honor, Humility, self-control, indomitable spirit, courtesy, integrity, and perseverance. All these tenants are extremely important to follow in our daily lives.
Self control is a very important tenant. The definition of self control is: restraint of ones actions, emotions or desires. To me Self Control means that you are able to restrain yourself from doing things out of desire or want. Just because you really want to do something doesn’t mean you do it.
Taekwondo has helped me with my self control quite a bit. Before taekwondo I would eat doughnuts, cream filled bagels, or any other pastries at any chance I would get. Now that I have practiced my self-control I don’t eat as many sweets as I had. An example is: when I deliberately turned down a cream cheese Danish even though I really, really wanted one. There are also two other ways I demonstrated self control they are, restraint of my actions or the restraint of my emotions. Another way that I demonstrated self control is when I controlled my desire to yell when my sister was pestering me
So, if it wasn’t for Taekwondo I really don’t know how well I would be controlling my desires, actions, or emotions. So I encourage others to become martial artists because it helped me a lot with my self control!

I thought it sounded goofy but it was still fine the way it was!

Pottery

Not too long ago I went to a pottery class and made two things a leaf plate and a ladybug bank.It took 3 steps to make sure that my ladybug bank actuly look like a bug and not a colorfull glop of clay.First I have to make my ladybug the right shape and bake it in the kilm.Second I need to paint my ladybug.Third I need to put a coat of clear stuff that makes the bug smooth.Finally I have to put it in the kilm once more. When it comes out my lady bug is finished!

Ants

A year ago we sprayed the foyer for ants apparently they came back. Because every time I see food on the floor there are ants hundreds of ants and all I can do is smash them with my thumb.Funny thing is that my thumb smells like coke afterward!I just hope they dont come into my room I cant imagine what it would be like if I had ants in my bed!

Peyote

Ok, remember when I was talking about peyote and how cute she was? Well,I have bad news yesterday she died.We started to notice her being sick 1 month ago and she went to several visits to the vet.So we took her to the vet yesterday around 3:00 and they said she was fine but they were going to run more testes on her. My mom left peyote at the vet because the tests were going to take an hour.While we were home my mother had goten a call from the vet.While she was talking I could tell somthing was not good because she looked pale and looked upset.Afterward she told me that peyote had adisences desiease it is somthing you are born whith and can not be cured.Since the desiease would kill her. Mom let the vet put peyote to sleep.The next day she told me that we were going to get a new puppy but not right away.But it so happens that that night we found a bach of mastiffs puppys someone was selling not to far from were we lived.There were two brindle puppys and to neopoliten mastiffs all of them were girls with sky blue eyes.when I was chooseing which puppy to take home one of the six week old puppys crawled up to me looked at me and licked me. OUT OF ALL THE PUPPYS THE NEOPOLITEN PUPPY WAS THE ONLY ONE TO PAY ATTENTION TO ME. So I picked that one. She gets LOTS of lovins.

Logs

A few days ago when I saw my dad choping well,trying to chop a log with an ax it looked easy enough.So, I asked my dad if I could try and he said "It is not as easy as it looks but,I dont see why you couldnt try."So, he handed me the ax and WOW it felt like it was 50 pounds. But I still am choping the same log I started with.I will make sure I will hack the 3 inches I have left today.

Bugs

I like bugs... but dont love them.My sister on the other hand hates bugs.It dosent matter if its a fly or a bee.If its an insect she hates it.When she sees one she will scream at the top of her lungs and head for the nearest corner.It takes SO long to get her out of that corner.Botom line she is terrifyed of any kind of insect except butterflys. :)

Copper

An hour ago I colected some copper from wires that were not being used,it was fun! I got a lot of copper. I am planing to make somthing out of the copper.So far I have an eye.

Our Tree

A few days ago I noticed that our tree had a split all along the trunk. Because of this we had to cut down lots of branches so the tree would not fall.The branches were HUGE. We decided to keep the wood to make cool things with it. But for now all the big branches are a playground for my siblings. They would climb on them as well as race on them. It was hilarious to watch them play on fifty year old branches.

Can music affect plant growth?

Well, according to all the research I have done it does affect plant growth. My friend tryed it with union plants and the one that he said mean things to like your ugly, you are never going to grow nice, and so on. Was in horrible shape.The one he did not say any thing at all was about average.The one that he said nice things to grew very healthy and strong.Also I found this website very interesting.
