My Favorite Villan

My favorite villain is Swiper from Dora the explorer. He is a great villain because he always tries to ruin the plans of Dora and her friends. The most evil thing about him is his unwillingness to not stop pestering Dora. Some characteristics of Swiper is he is a fox, which is not a very nice animal. He always wears a bandanna on his face, which robbers wear too and they are not very nice people. Swipers strategy's to get Dora is to usually hide behind a tree of rock and hopes no one will see him, but Dora always asks her viewers to watch out for him, and if they see him the viewers yell out "Swiper no swiping!", and after they say that he leaves. That is his only weakness. He usually comes to bother Dora when she is trying to get somewhere, she is always exploring with her pet monkey Boots and Backpack. Swiper tries to steal things from her too, hence the name Swiper and the bandanna.

Can we trust people to be good?

If people were stranded on a desert island I wouldn't trust them to survive because there is always one person who has to mess everything up for everyone then they all die. Even if there is food and water on the island somebody will need to step up and take change. If no one does that then they all die, or everyone want to be the leader of the whole group and there is a lot of arguing going on to find out who will be the leader. Only in a rare occasion one person will be the leader and everyone else will follow he or she. But eventually they will make a wrong choice and everyone will hate them. So they will try to pick someone else to be leader and they can't find the right person for the job. So they will not find food. they won't find water, they will start getting angry with each other, start fighting and all die. But i will never trust that people will be able to survive alone, even though it depends on a lot of thing most of the time they will not survive.

Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening

Whose woods these are I think I know.   

His house is in the village though;   

He will not see me stopping here   

To watch his woods fill up with snow.   

My little horse must think it queer   

To stop without a farmhouse near   

Between the woods and frozen lake   

The darkest evening of the year.   

He gives his harness bells a shake   

To ask if there is some mistake.   

The only other sound’s the sweep   

Of easy wind and downy flake.   

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.   

But I have promises to keep,   

And miles to go before I sleep,   

And miles to go before I sleep.

Last week I had to memorize this poem. I think what Robert Frost means in this in this poem is he stopped in the woods to admire the beauty of the woods. He thought his horse was confused because they stopped without a farm near, it was basically in the middle of nowhere. It was snowing and the wind was blowing softly. But he could not stay for long because he had promises to keep, and miles to go before he can rest. One of my favorite lines of the poem is the last stanza, "The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep." because I interpreted it the easiest, I think it means that he would like to stay for longer but he can't because he has other obligations to up hold to. And it will be a long time until he can rest.
What I learned from having to memorize this poem is that I can't memorize it in one night. I knew this beforehand so I decided to learn two stanzas one night and the other two the next night, and take the third night to memorize it all. This helped a lot because I got a B as a final grade.

Holiday Season

The holiday season is my favorite season of the whole year, because it's that one time of the year when all your family from far a wide come together to spend time with each other. I have family from Guatemala and New York; all my aunts and uncles came from there just for the holidays. Even the ones that I haven't seen in years came just for the holidays. This season is also my favorite because I get money and presents from my whole family, and my family is big so I get a lot of money. Every year I always get something super cool. One of my favorite things about this season is the weather. The weather here is always hot and humid, but now it's nice and chill. And the best thing about it is there's no school for two whole weeks. During the break I spent a lot of time watching T.V., sleeping, and hang out with my friends. I also went to Orlando the day before New Year's Eve. It was my family's first time not being with the family on New Years. We went to Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios both days we were there. And the day we left we went to play mini-golf at a pirate themed golf course. On the way back home it was a three hour drive so we obviously got bored along the way, so we decided to play some games which made the three hour trip seem like twenty minutes. Then the day after we got home we decided to go to the soccer field and play because I haven't played that much over the break and I had to get ready for school soccer too. That was the last fun thing I did over the break. So that's why winter break or the "holidays" are my favorite time of the year.
