My favorite memories of seventh grade are the Knight At The Museum, the march madness finals game, and lunches. The Knight At The Museum night was a great time with people from all over coming to school to see all of the social studies research projects. The only downside was the set in stone script, which had to be well thought out. I didn’t actually play in the finals game, but I got a good place to watch it. The team I wanted to win didn’t have a chance, but it still fun to see them try to win it. Then lunch, the longest break of the day. It was always fun to hang out with friends after eating my meal. We would play basketball, or just run around doing nothing really. Just enjoying each other’s company.

This week I started working on my trifold for my final project. I got decoration and a name done because everything else I had to get printed. By the time those accomplishments were finished, it was time to leave. On Monday and Tuesday I am going to finish up the trifold, I hopefully won’t need Wednesday, but if it comes to that, I’ll use it. All I need is just some stuff printed and then I’m finished. Those are all the adjustments I will make, no real, big struggles. And finally I did end up achieving my goal, finding an equal list of the pros and cons of video games.

My mom is very special to me because of her kindness and that she cares a lot for me. She is always there for me and always wants me to do my best in everything I do. She is very supportive and always helps me succeed no matter what happens. She always cares and helps me whenever I need it. She is also very protective in the good way, not the helicopter parent kind of way. She wants to know what I do, for safety purposes. She sacrifices so much time for me and my sister, I can’t imagine how hard it is, yet she does it. That is why my mom is one of my favorite people in the world.

This week I accomplished refining the notes I took on the doc before I left early. I fixed some grammatical errors, and turned them into more of a sentence structure. There were no real struggles and next week I will work on the trifold for my final project. I ended on finding the note taking and refinement of them.

This month I read Alex Rider – Point Blank by Anthony Horowitz. It starts out as Alex retuning to school with a cover up story of being out sick for 3 weeks. Then going on a mini tangent after school by finding the hiding place of a drug dealer that comes to the school and using a nearby construction crane to grab the boat and drop it in front of a police station. Then he finds himself in front of the chief of the MI6 in England again for a new mission. The MI6 was suspicious of a man named Dr. Hugo Grief who is the headmaster of a Swiss boarding school for troubled boys. After a cover name and cover story was made, he is sent to the school, at first glance it doesn’t seem off, but the boys are. One day they are troubled and don’t care what anyone thinks of them, the next day their quiet, hardworking men. Alex does a little searching, and finds that Dr. Grief is a madman, sick person who’s master plan is immortality by cloning, he cloned himself into the form of babies, then had them grow, and then Grief bought the school for a very specific reason. He would take in troubled boys of a certain age in, then replaced them with his clones that a master plastic surgeon changed there faces. Will Alex stop this himself? Or will he need a little help along the way.

What I loved about this book is the nonstop action and great descriptions just like the first book. The spying action and dialogue that says a lot but doesn’t give it all away. I would definitely recommend this book to read if you like actions and suspense, but you should read book 1 first.
