My Family

2008-05-27T12:54:00.000-07:00

My family is big. I have four sisters and nine brothers. Right now I am living with my mom, one of my brothers, and three of my sisters. During the summer I live with my dad and the rest of my family. One thing I like about my family is that no matter where I go I always have somebody that I can depend on.

My Life At Willie Brown

2008-05-27T12:53:00.000-07:00

I have been going to Willie Brown for four years. I have attended 2nd grade, 4th grade, and 6th grade at Willie Brown. I think that Willie Brown is a violent but fun school. The school is violent because there are a lot of fights. I like going to Willie Brown because I enjoy going to school. My experience at this school has been really good. My favorite teacher is Mr. Roth. My favorite class is computers. Mr. Roth is my favorite teacher because he is the Computer lab teacher. He is a really nice teacher and he always gives us stuff. I really like computer class because we get free time.

Lil Malik

2008-05-27T12:52:00.000-07:00

My blog name is Lil Malik. I wanted Lil Malik as my blog name because that is what my family calls me. My real name is Malik. I really enjoy, sports, action, and adventure. My favorite video game is God Of War. I really like that video game because it has a lot of action, adventure, and a little bit of sports. The first time I played that video game was a couple of months ago.

My Community

2008-05-27T12:51:00.000-07:00

I live in east Oakland.
I live with my dad and step mom.
I live with seven people.
There are always a lot of people arguing in my house.
The arguments are usually about who gets to watch T.V. first, who gets to play a game first, who gets to eat something first, and who gets to use the bathroom first. I have lived in my community for five years. When I grow up and move away I don’t think that I will miss it. There is a park by my house and that is where I go to flirt with girls.

My Experience At Willie Brown

2008-05-27T12:50:00.000-07:00

My name is Dontae and I’ve been going to Willie Brown for two years. One thing I like about my school is that sometimes we go on field trips. Another thing that I like is computer class. We have computer class for one hour! If I had a chance to change the school I would make it cleaner and I would get better teachers. What I don’t like about this school is that people are really messy, students are always trying to do too much, and some of the girls don’t know how to act. Mr. Roth is my favorite teacher because he let’s us have free time on the computers. We get to play computer games and we also get to make music on the computer.

TaeTae 4

2008-05-27T12:49:00.000-07:00

My blog name is Tae Tae 4 because my mom calls me Tae Tae. I added the number four because my birthday is on the fourth day of the month.

My School

2008-05-27T12:48:00.000-07:00

I have been at Willie Brown for three years. This year I am in the sixth grade. My nickname at school is “lil sister” and some people have other nicknames for me. I would describe myself as an info booth for the school. The reason why is because if anyone comes to the school looking for someone I can usually find them. I think Willie Brown is an okay school. But the uniforms have got to go! Some of the teachers have tacky attitudes. The only thing that I really love about this school is that whenever I leave class I am really excited because I have learned something new. So remember if you come to Willie Brown and you need to find someone or you are lost come to me and I will help you out.

My Community

2008-05-27T12:47:00.000-07:00

My community is very quiet. In my community you will see the police, but not because anything bad is happening. In my community the police are around to make sure that everything is under control. My community is very clean there is no trash on the floor. There are two parks in my community. One of those parks has a view of the whole bay. I have been living in the same neighborhood since I was born. There is nothing that I dislike about my community. When I grow up I don’t want to leave or move away from my house because I love my community. There are a lot of different generations and people who have lived there for years and years. I like living in my community. It is very peaceful.

Tongan-girl*415

2008-05-27T12:46:00.000-07:00

The reason why I chose the blog name Tongan-girl415 is because my culture is Tongan and I’m a girl who lives in San Francisco.

My Family

2008-05-27T12:45:00.002-07:00

My family is from Samoa an island not far from Hawaii. Samoa is very hot. Usually the men in Samoa don’t wear shirts or shoes. Most men where something called an ie lavalava. Ie lavalavas are thin sheets with Samoan designs on them. During my last summer vacation I went to Samoa. I really didn’t pack that much because there was no use for all of the things I have here!

Samoan Joe

2008-05-27T12:45:00.001-07:00

My name is Jonah but all my friends an family members call me Samoan Joe. The reason why they call me that is because people always ask me where I’m from. When people ask me where I am from I tell them that I am from Samoa. When they ask me what my name is I tell them that my name is Jonah. And that is how I ended up with the nickname Samoan Joe. I am proud to be Samoan because I come from a culture of warriors.

My Family

2008-05-27T12:43:00.000-07:00

I have eight sisters and brothers in my family. One thing I like about my family is that we travel. Another thing that I like is that there are always friends at our house. At times when there is extra money in my family I get spoiled. One thing that I don’t like about my large family is that there are a lot of chores. When it’s time to do the chores someone is always whining or causing trouble. They say things like “I don’t want to do all of that,” or they will say, “That is too hard!” Another thing I don’t like is that I have a lot of brothers and sisters, which means that sometimes someone is lying, or fighting, or taking my stuff. One thing I love about having a large family is that someone always has your back. At this time I live in my house with one brother (sometimes two) and two sisters (sometimes three).

My Life At Willie Brown

2008-05-27T12:42:00.000-07:00

My name is Kaylyn Perkins I have been at Willie Brown for six years. I wish that we could change the uniform. The name of the school use to be 21st century and then they changed it to Willie L. Brown Jr. I played all of the 7th grade sports. I really like my friends at school. They are really nice to me. The school lunches are really nasty. My principle is Mr. Ross. My homeroom is teacher is Mr. Kemiste. My favorite class is computer class because we get to use the computers all day long. My stepsister and my God sister also go to Willie Brown. That is my life at Willie Brown.

Life In My Community

2008-05-27T12:41:00.000-07:00

Well were I live, in Sunnydale, it’s the projects. I live with my brothers, sisters, dad, and mommy. Sometimes my nephews, nieces, cousins, and God sister stay with us. My neighborhood looks like a fun place to live and it’s got a golf course and park. Sometimes it’s quiet but when nighttime comes it’s gang banger time. The gang bangers come out and shot. Sometimes my family members and me are scared. In the morning it is quiet. I have lived there for three or four years. When I grow up and move out I will miss all of my friends. This is what I love and don’t love about my community.

KPC 13

2008-05-27T12:39:00.000-07:00

I picked KPC as my blog name because it represents my name. My full name is Kaylyn Perkins-Council. I picked the number 13 because I am thirteen years old.

What I Don’t Like About My Cousin

2008-05-27T12:13:00.000-07:00

Whenever I go over to my auntie’s house my little cousin always bugs me. He will talk and talk about stuff that I don’t really care about. Even when I ask him to stop talking he continues. When I yell at him he stops, but then he gets mad. When it’s hot outside he likes to dump water on me. I always warn him about getting me wet. I tell him that if he gets me wet I will sock him. But he never listens. He gets me wet anyway.

What I Don’t Like About School

2008-05-27T12:11:00.000-07:00

I have been at Willie Brown since the 4th grade and I don’t like all of the teachers or all of the students that attend this school because they can be very mean. The teachers try to get students in trouble. The students try to start fights with other students. I don’t understand why they do that. Sometimes I feel like the teachers want to bag on me just to get me in a lot of trouble. Just a couple of weeks ago I almost got into a fight because someone was playing too much. Those are the things that I don’t like about my school.

My Neighborhood

2008-05-27T12:10:00.000-07:00

I live in Oakland in the lower bottoms. I have lived there for five years. My house is pink. I live across the street from the bart station. I like my community because it’s so quiet. What I don’t like about my community is that I live near public transportation and the trains and the bus are really loud.

G-Feezy/Young tu

2008-05-27T12:08:00.000-07:00

My blog name is G-Feezy/Young Tu. But my real name is Gre’tu. I came up with these nicknames last year. This year I decided to use these nicknames in my blog spot blogger. I like to play football. I practice playing football with my little cousin and my big brothers in front of my aunt’s house. During the weekend I like to play football at the park near my house. One reason I like football is because it’s kind of like exercise. I also like to play football because it’s a lot of fun.

I asked my mother if I could plan the decorations for thanksgiving. She said yes. It turned out so great. My family thanked me. We had the best thanksgiving ever. I felt so happy. It was like success shot me but in a good way. I felt so happy. I thanked my family for letting me plan the decorations. Then we sat down to pray.

Success

2007-12-09T21:12:00.000-08:00

Success

2007-12-09T21:11:00.002-08:00

Success means doing better on something that you weren’t very good at before. Then you become better at it. Something that I am successful at is math. I got 95% and 99% on my math tests. My mom was proud of me for being so successful in math class. My mom was so proud of me that she bought me a fish.

Success

2007-12-09T21:11:00.001-08:00

Oh, I also feel successful when I got to school. I also feel successful at drawing.

Success

2007-12-09T21:09:00.000-08:00

When I finished my story I got a certificate. Another time I was successful was when I took a spelling test and I got a successful score. It made my parents very happy.

Success

My whole family was very happy. Another time my family felt successful was when I won best picture colored during summer camp at the Excelsior Boys and Girls club. I won a free ice cream sundae!

Success

2007-12-09T21:08:00.001-08:00

What success means to me is that you are good at things. A time I was successful was when I won an award for finding lots of birds. I think I got at least 18 or 17. I have lots of things like baby sitting or being at school on time. I wonder why people are good with different kinds of things?

Success

2007-12-09T21:06:00.000-08:00

Success means to me that you always try your hardest. I’ve been successful in a lot of things. I got awards for being successful.

The tournament was last summer. Another time I was successful was in first grade. I got a trophy in first grade. It was for an art project. I won 1st place. I was so happy.

Success

2007-12-09T21:05:00.000-08:00

Success doesn’t mean that much to me. I like to win. But I feel bad for some people when they loose.

A time I was successful was yesterday when I won a scavenger hunt at the Academy of Science. First I said “It is going to be easy.” But then I saw that they moved some of the stuff around. I love some of the animals we had to find. One of the animals was an electric eel. Another animal that I liked was the anaconda snake. It was not as fat as the one at the zoo. We had to find some stuff like a meteor and a Chimpanzee skull. My partner and I pretty much knew where all the stuff was located. At the end we all had to meet where the penguins were feeding. I only needed two more items. I finished. I won before anybody left. I felt weird.

Success

2007-12-09T21:04:00.000-08:00

I think that success means that I go through a lot of tough stuff and maybe that is why I think I’m successful. I am successful when I help my mom and dad. I help my dad because he needs help. Sometimes when I help my parents I get a lot of stuff. Sometimes I get a lot of money. Sometimes I get presents for my birthday. I help my mom because she needs help and the things that she has to do are very hard to do. But even when it is hard I still do it. I have a wonderful time when I help my mom. I like helping my mom work on some stuff. Successful effort is a good thing. I am successful.

Change at School

2007-12-09T19:22:00.002-08:00

When I was in the 2nd grade I wasn’t that smart. In 3rd grade I was still not that smart. But when I got to 4th and 5th grade I felt smart. I came from China to San Francisco, so that is why I didn’t feel smart in 2nd and 3rd grade. This is a change that I have felt from 2nd to 5th grade.

Change at School

2007-12-09T19:22:00.001-08:00

When I was in 4th grade no one copied me because I was new. People always thought that I was copying them. I am in 5th grade. There is a new girl in my fifth grade class. She copies me and everybody else. When I get mad I stomp my feet on the floor. She copies me when I get mad. She likes one of my sweaters and she told me that she is going to buy one just like it. She also likes to copy my hairstyle.

JSRangoon

2007-12-09T19:15:00.000-08:00

My blog name is JSRangoon because my grandma took me to Rangoon when I was very little. Rangoon is near Thailand. We went to Rangoon because my grandma was to cold in Japan and she was scared that I might get sick. I was born in Rangoon. Rangoon is located in Burma. I was happy when I was in Rangoon because my family was there. The J in my blog name stands for my first name and of course S stands for my last name. When I was in Rangoon I stayed at my aunt and uncle’s house. My other aunt likes to go shopping a lot. Rangoon is really fun.

The change in my family was when my big cousin gave birth to a baby. One day when I came home from school my auntie said my cousin was in the hospital. My cousin spent four nights in the hospital. I was very happy. At night we went to visit my cousin in the hospital. She was lying in the bed. Her stomach was fat. We talked for a while because she said that she wanted some company. She said that she was bored and had nothing to do. My auntie and my grandma slept at the hospital. Four days later, my cousin came home with a cute little baby. We had a celebration.

2007-11-20T11:54:00.000-08:00

I chose Amber as my blog name because that’s my favorite name. It also kind of reminds me of a crystal. I also think that it suits me. My birth name kind of sounds like my blog name, only my birth name is more difficult to say in its original form. My birth name in English is Amerist. I don’t know what it means. A lot of people call me Amerist so I am starting to like it.
