Two weeks ago we were assigned a project to create a bag filled with stuff that represents our personality. One week ago, we shared these projects with our classmates. We learned a lot of things that we never knew about each other.
I brought in a little key chain because I sort of like to collect things like that. I think that they are really cute. I have about ten of them at home… and I usually put a different one on either my lunch bag or my backpack every week. I brought in a notebook because I really like to write about things. I am really good at writing horror stories with a little hint of romance in them. I am working on a comedy/mystery story right now, which is a little out of my league, but that’s okay. I brought in a blue pen because I like to occasionally illustrate my stories that I write, and because I really enjoy drawing things, even though I am really bad at drawing and painting.
I brought in a plate with yarn wrapped around it because I really like to do crafts, and that is one of the numerous crafts I have made. I made it when I was at an ice skating camp three weeks ago. I made it during our craft hour, and finished it while my mom was in an one hour long meeting. It was really fun to make. Even though it took two hours to make it, it was totally worth it. I brought in a pair of swimming goggles, because on hot days, I love to go swimming at the pool with my friends. I have had these goggles for a long time, and they work really well.
Lastly, I brought in a headband because I love doing hair. The story behind it:
My church does this sort of carnival thing for special needs children. I got to work in a hair styling area, and it was a great experience. I really loved doing it. After we got home, I begged my dad if I could do it again, and he agreed. I am so happy that I get to do it again!
