A new start

I am going to write about a trip. A great trip i took with my friends. Last winter i went snowboarding with 3 of my friends, Cameron, stephen, and jj. We left Camerons house at 4 am on a saturday mourning. That night we didn't fall asleep till 3 and got about an hours worth of sleep. After we awoke we hopped in the car and drove about an hour and a half to pick up jj, we doesn't live in alameda. We arrived at sugar bowl at roughly 6:30 after a stop at denny's. We got out of the car and put our snow clothing on then walked over to the building and registration area, or watever it is called. After we all payed and rented snowboards we hit the slopes and took the first hill, it wasn't the bunny hill, and i forgot name and after we got to the top, i buckled my bindings and took off, after a short run, i fell, on my back, and sled down the icy mountain. I got up and tried again, and once again, the same thing has happened, i tried again, it took me along time to get down the mountain, and i fell many times. I got down and my friends were waiting for me, next was the bunny hill, which i did alittle bit better at. All day was hard for me because it takes a few trips to be able to go all the way down a mountain with out falling. I did almost all runs, there was a few black diamonds i wasn't about to try, but for the most part i felt i did ok, until the end of the day which was all bad.
So after we stopped for lunch at the overpriced cafe, we hit some more runs, they at a really long hill, where the more speed you get, the better, so you won't hace to walk when it gets to be flat, and it is hard to unbuckle, the walk with a snowboard in deep snow, so, i decided to get speed by going straight and i was going at a decent speed, i thought it was really fast, and the, the worst thing that could of happened happened, the side of the board dug into the snow, and then my face, acually, my forehead hit the ground really hard, and i couldnt move alot, so i went to the side with my friend and layed down for like 20 minutes, after that i we walked to the building then i sat down and we talked till we left, for maybe an hour. We walked to the car and drove home sfter that.

Better Blogs

Yesterday i was talking with my friend about my blogs and i realized that my blogs werent that good. Chris Maier inspired me to write about something that was more important and interesting to the reader. He has read my past blogs and stated how poorly writtten they were, i just wanted to get enough words but that wont help me and no one wants to read 300 words with no meaning. So i need to write about a good topic that i could write more than one or two blogs about. im going to write about more trips and everywhere ive been out of the Bay area. Im going to start with a short blog about my birthday this year in March.

So Its my birthday and im turning 15 years old and im going to a place that i got to pick out, pismo beach, with my family and family friends which was good because i like going riding with alot of people, and taking rides with the fastest riders is fun. Usally, i dont go out to far unless im with someone else, just in case something acually happens, or if my bike breaksdown, i have a way to go get help.okay, so after the 7 hour drive to get there we didnt get stuck in the sand, we had a truck and 18 ft. flat trailer with all the bikes and quads. It was kinda heavy but not too bad, because the heavier the load, the easier it is to get stuck. so we parked and unloaded and i started to ride around camp and its a beach, so i was riding next to the water to try and pull up saome wheelies, but i wasnt that good at holding a wheelie, i needed more practice. i am going to continue this blog later.

nEW BLOG POST FOR ME

Darn cap locks, lol. Okay i have decided that i am goibg to write about the art drawing i analized, fuck, I do, I have, I am. I think that Steinburg is trying to portray in this drawingh that there is three sepereate sections to a person. First off, "I Am", the base to this group of sections, is jus like the template, to who you acually are. Next is is 'I have', which is written like hanging cloths that is being dryed. Im not sure but, but i think this means what are your possesions and what do you own and questions like this, The cloths are materials ion the picture. The top and next question in this picture is "I Do", and it is like some kind of energy, kinda confusing. It is in the sky and and it is a bright array of colors, bright colors. I Do is, using energy to do something, i dont know what or if it matters what, but doing something. It is possibly to describe someone with these teree traits. Im making a ton of mistakes on this blog because i put the papr on the computer so i could see what im writing very good. Im not sure if this is enough words, i think itr is but john mah said its not enough words so i am continueing on in my blog by just doing this and keep on typing to say watever else i can to make this fit on a whole pagh`e, i just typed a bunch of words, but i dont think i have typed enough yet, i am typing kinda pretty bad, its not good but i dont know what else i can say about sometrhing on his blog, at least i got plenty of new friends at this school, its good, yeahh.

New style

Okay, for this blog i am getting a small dosage of writers block and i dont know what would be a good topic. But art least i am doing the blog this time, yeahh. so, eyy, ummm, well, o yeah, for thanksgiving im going to dumont dunes, but i already talked abut that. Wateve penis , ill talk about it some more. I havent got a new bike yet and im leaving tuesday, but i can ride a ktm 300, which is a big two stroke and i am going to get a paddle tire, but i am still hoping to get a cr250 dirt bike, which is a really bad ass bike. most freestylers use that bike. Well, i am super excitd for the trip and my best friend is going. Yep, this is prolly gonna ber the best trip of my life so far untill i gat older so i can go with only my friends which is gonna be awsome, just a guys trip going dirt biking but with girls too, it sounds really fun. I dont really know what else to write about but i think i am almost done with this hole post.Jerkin, ive been saying jerkin alot lately and i donrt know why, its that one song, jerkin, jerkin, jerkin. Its kinda catchy i guess but its alrteady gettiong old. And the people who made that song also made a dance called the jerk. Or jerkin, kinda wierd but not really that fun, just funny to do in froint of poeple. Okay, i need 40 more words in this post, or blog post to be more precise. I only need a few more words, what should i write about, umm\. im almost done with this blog, yEAHH. iM ABOUT TO GO TO LUNCH AND IT IS FOOD FAIRE DAY, BUT IM ABOUT TO GO TO MCDONALKDS WWITH ALOT OF MY FREINDS. iTS GONNA BE CROWDED THERER, LOOL, WATEVER, ITS GOOD THOUGH. gOOOD BYE BRUH. OPPS, CAPITOLS, MY BAD.

today is a brand new day

I am very excited for thanksgiving. This Thanksgiving is going to be my best one yet because of the trip and the place i'm going for Thanksgiving. Also i am taking my best friend on this trip. Okay , so we are going to a place , Dumont Dunes, It is a place for dirt biking and quad riding. It it miles and miles of sand dunes, so i use different tires, special tires with paddles for sand only. Also, i am getting a new dirt bike before the trip, a cr250. Which i am super excited for, like the most excited i've ever been. This dirt bike is the shit. Im gonna buy an 2002 model so it will be a green sticker so i can ride all year long. Im excited, okay, so new topic, my dad said if i can get all A's for the rest of high school, he is gonna buy me a nice truck, so i am really gonna try hard to do it, i know if i put a ton of efffort in i can do it, and if do it, i can get in a better college, but the thing is i can't be in easy classes, like spanish 1 or something, and i wont be in pe next year. It will be a struggle, but the goal is worth it. I wonder how many words this is so far. I have to do all blogs the semester. So i have 50 more words to do in this blog at least, so whats new with me is that trip i blogged about already. i bought crazy core skittles because johan mah always buys them, but i dont think they are as good as the blue, tropical skittles i usually buy, i don't even buy skittles much, i also bought some smores pop tarts, wow, im really writing about somme wierd things in this post, lol, okay.

What ive written

In the beginning of the year, my first couple of blogs were about dirt bikes, and my first blog also talked about my bad handwriting, i didn't have enough to write about, so i had to change subjects to think about more to write. I think i am better at writing blogs now because when i was beginning when i started i just named things i now and stated facts, and that kind of writing but now i write about things that are going on and things that are on my mind, before i explained everything thing in detail, but now i can just write things more like whats happening, you feel? lol , i have never said that. I still do that kind of writing i stared with, but its different. For the rest of this blog im gonna write about, idk? I dont know what to write about, im getting a little bit of writers block. Oh, yea, on my last blog i was talking about musicv, and maybe was also talking about ipods, i dont remember. i have these earphones i got at office max about 3 or maybe even 4 weeks ago. I listen to music alot, and these are good so far, they were 20 bucks, i kiinda want kicker earphones but they are like 60 or 70 bucks, and i dont want to lose them, because i have lost earphones. Huy Van Vo is my new best friend, idk, he smokes crack. Its not acceptable. What shall i do, he thinks hes sexy but hes a guy, i think. Hes crazy if u get to know him.Okay, back to subject. I think if i but them they might fall out of my ear alot, cause they are in ear. I might get them if my earphones i have now break. That was a wierd subject.

New blog on new subject

Today, right now, i am going to switch up what i always write about. I am going to write about a new subject. Maybe on music, i really enjoy music, in fact i am lestening to my ipod right now. Everyday i always listen to it. Wow, almost everyone has an ipod, its amazing, there great. Okay, What i was going to say is when i do my homework or i am trying to fall asleep, i listen to some music. At home, if i am not watching tv, my tv is on everyday, i know, its unhealthy, I am lisetning to music. In my room, i have surround sound, so i can hook my ipod up to that for some good tunes and or i am using some old comouter speakers, but these speakers have a subwoofer and they are really legit, they have two setttings, treble and bass. The bass gets really lounda. For some old speakers, they are awsome. I really enjoy them. I listen to alot of diiferent types of music, my best friends are all in a band, and they play like, alternative rock, not hradcore stuff, but lighgter. I like it, they have done a concert at roosters once, and i went , they was alot of peple there when they had it. Wow, im typing really fast right noe, im usally nor fast, idk why. I need to keep up on these blogs, its easy but im missing 3. Which brought my grade down a whole lot. And my parents are ghoing to be really mad if they see it. I am missing An RDQ, or sumthing like that, but i havent made it up and i dont know what it is. I have been typing everything straight out of my brain, Everything here, i thought of as i typed it, lol, its kinda wierd, its surprising how there is peple who type like this for a living. Like, those people who go to starbucks with a laptop, there are always in there. i guess they dont want to be alone, wow, im in the computer lab, and i put both of these in ear buds in my ear and i cant hear my typing, I am not even looking at the screen, i really need to learn how to tpe with out looking at the keyboard, i know i would become alot faster if i did that. I tired, i just took a big test in my math class and i have a history test next. And yesterday in 6th period i had a big spanish test. This year i acually understand test more, like last year, i hadd alot of trouble in test and i didnt do alot of homework, but im doing much better this year, im also trying harder, its good. I think i am done with this post, it seems really long, ive been writing for like 10 minutes, i nedd to stop saying like so much.

Hollister trip

On sunday, i went to Hollister Hills in California. Hollister is a great place to go riding. There is a ton of tails and alot of different types and levels of trails, there is blue circle=easy, green square=intermedient, black diamond= advance. I went with my good friend Cameren and his dad. We left his house at 8am and got there around 9:30, the traffic was really flowing. When we got there, we looked for parking and the place was packed, its usually hella empty, but there was like a vintage motorcross show thing, and a swap met, so most of all the spots were taken. It was still very fun, and i had a great time.I was riding a very beaten old kawasaki 200. It used to be my dad's but he got a new bike, so i got to ride this beater. It's a 200cc two stroke, so for a old bike, it still had some power, enough to get me up and down everything i tried, and we did alot of black diamond runs, which are narrow, steep, and slow. My bike had bad front braker, and half way throgh the day i droppedit so the front brake lever bent, so i could only fit one, almost two fingers comfortable, so it was bad, but at least the back brakes were ok.

(2.) The impact of racism begins early. Even in our preschool years, we are exposed to misinformation[3] about people different from ourselves. Many of us grew up in neighborhoods where we had limited opportunities to interact with people different from our own families. When I ask my students, “How many of you grew up in neighborhoods where most of the people were from the same racial group as your own?” almost every hand goes up. There is still a great deal of social segregation in our communities. Consequently, most of the early information we receive about “others”—people racially, religiously, or economically different from ourselves—does not come as the result of firsthand experience. The secondhand information we do receive has often been distorted, shaped by cultural stereotypes, and left incomplete.

(3.) Some examples will highlight the process. Several years ago one of my students conducted a research project investigating preschoolers’ conceptions of[4] Native Americans. Using children at a local day care center as her participants, she asked these three- and four-year-olds to draw a picture of a Native American. Most children were stumped by her request. They didn’t know what a Native American was. But when she rephrased the question and asked them to draw a picture of an Indian, they readily complied. Almost every picture included one central feature: feathers. In fact, many of them also included a weapon—a knife or tomahawk—and depicted the person in violent or aggressive terms

After reading these paragrpahs from the novel" Why are all the black kids sitting together in the cafiteria", I annotated it. How i annotated it was by using the folowing methods, chunking and getting rid of redundency. Also, i added my own opinions and underlined what i thought was important. what i find useful is circling key words and underline the sentance, and then write my thought on the subject. I think annotating is easy, because im just writing my opinions and thoughts on the paper. In these articles, i annotated alot because it is showong the effects of the world, kind of, to a preschooler, because they did a survey with preschoolers and most of them drew what they thought of a native American. And what they thought of was aggresive men with tomahawks andf other dangererous things in their hands, and fethers in their headban. This shows that evern someone at the age of 4-5 can prejudice.

More on dirt bikes

Hello, well, im going to write more on dirt bikes.There is alot of differnet types of bikes in America, most bikes are from Japan or, there one major brand from Austria, KTM. there are also brands and compony from China, but nothing big, there have brands that replica and copy otheres. I have a ktm 85 2 stroke, which is a race bike, and really pipy. My next bike is going to be Honda 2 stroke 250. There is either 2 stroke or 4 stroke engines they put in bikes. Four strokes are like car motors and they rev up like a straight line on a graph. A two stroke has a powerband, so when it gets to a certain rev it gains alot of power and acclerates alot faster. i like both, but there are people who only ride one type. National event requires most bikes to be 4 stroke because it has better emmisions, but there is still some 2 strokes are aloud to race, but not nearly as many as 4 strokes. Except for drag racing, where there is alot of 2 strokes. I like Ktm and honda the most, but they are all good.Everything from China is cheapely made so it will break, and its usally hard to get parts for them. Freestylers in the x-games ride 2 strokes, because they are light, they have great accerlerations and easy to manuever in the air. for ridings, such as desert racing, they use large displacement 4 strokes because they can rev up really high, and in the desert, its all about going really fast. Also, there is sand riding, which i do alot of, there, i have to use special paddle tire, and low gearing, because sand robs horsepower from a bike, because the tires are always spinning. I like all kinds of differnt riding.

umm, i like taking trips

well,i like taking vacations, and trips.im acually taking a trip to L.A. this weekend, so i have to write before i leave. i am going to a off road event, the orange county fairgrounds will be full of sandrails, and dirt bike, and trucks. i am interested in all of this. then i am goiung to diseney land for my sisters birthday, and i am really excited for california screamin, every time ive been there, i was too little or scared but i came over my fear and now i love rollasr coasters, then, im juiced for the orange county flee market, there is anything you can think of and over 1000 venders. its gonna be awsome. i went one year ago, and it wasone the best trips of my life, and this time its gonna be better. i just passed my permit test today so im really juiced, but i cant driveon this trip because i dont have insurance an i have to go to one lesson of driving school first. i think this counts for my post, maybe next week i will talk about my trip, and how it went.

Why I Ride

Why I want to write about dirt biking is because it’s the thing I’m best at. I like to work on them, to ride them and to talk about them. I’ve been riding since I was like 6 or 7, and I’ve been around them forever. It’s m main interest , everything to do with it. I have spent a lot of time saving up for one, and my dad matches what I make. I’ve been going riding a lot, not recently because of school, but throughout the summer. One of the reasons I enjoy dirt bikes so much is it brings people together, my family and friends. When I go riding I go with a lot of people usually. I want to write about this topic and I think I can say a lot about it, I know a lot about dirt bikes. I used to look up new bikes, and race bikes. I can say that this I s my favorite thing in the world.

Also, I need to improve my writing, I have really messy handwriting. I usually get an idea and try to write everything down as fast as I can, but I need to slow down. I do okay with punctuation, I have to review what I wrote and edit, I do make a lot of mistakes. I move sentences and words to make it flow better. I think I’m an average writer, but I need to expand my vocabulary, for example. Use bigger and better words.
