Jump Style

I’m planning to learn how to do jump style. Jump style is a style of dancing that you have to practice every day or you will forget every thing that you learned.

At first when you start you will not be good at it and if you dance for a while your legs will get really sore. When learning jump style dancing, it will help you to draw a square on the floor. You need to stay in the square while you dance.

It is really hard to do, but if you take time and practice you will learn it as you go.

There is a duo jump where two people hold hands. If you do it wrong then you can be really badly injured.

Don’t try it until you know how to jump style really well.

2004 Beslan School Hostages

September 1, 2004 was distinct. It was the first day of the school year. Russian people hold a ceremony to celebrate that day every year. But something horrible happened that day. School number one in the rural North Ossetia town of Beslan was attacked by terrorists. As the people were gathering, they didn’t know that the school was abundant with bombs. When they went inside the school, a horde of Ingush and Chechen terrorists were waiting for them. They detained about 1,200 people hostage and took custody of them in the school gym; some fathers were killed. The gym was filled with bombs. If someone tried to escape the terrorists would bomb the entire school. Then the terrorists said they would shoot anyone who moves, and crying babies and their mothers would be shot. It degraded on the third day.Two explosions set off allowing some of the hostages to vacate the school. That made the terrorists angry, and they set fire, causing the Russian military to fire back in a hectic response. Then the Russian military went in the school and freed some people. At least 385 were killed and nearly 800 more hurt.

I was really sad, because I was celebrating the same holiday at my school on that day. When it showed on the news everyone was so sad because of what had happened. And now every one still remembers what happened. And I still remember it to! It was so horrible that it is so hard to forget.

The Picnic Day

Tomorrow I’m going to the picnic with my family. My dad’s company invited the whole family to this picnic. And Dad said that we can bring Beanie Baby with us. There will be free cotton candy and a lot of fun. And we will get to meet new people from my dad’s work, and their children. That is so fun sometimes if they’re nice to you and you are nice to them. That how people should treat each other and show some affection to one another.

Naz Cafe

This Friday, I and Ticklish Princess might go to Beanie Baby’s house. This thing that we will go to is called the Naz Café. We usually go there once a month to spend some time with friends and play games. We always have a great time together and we like doing that. I hope that we go and have a great time.

Indian Powwow

Tomorrow I and Ticklish Princess and Beanie Baby will go to an Indian Powwow, where Indians dance by the fire and make weird noises. I apparently don’t like that. But I’m going to see my second cousins if they go. They are really funny and I like to spend a lot of time with them. They always know how to cheer up a person if she is in a bad mood.

Day at the Bible Quizzing

Today I’m hoping to finish my school and then go to Beanie Baby’s house to do Bible Quizzing. I’m going to be there for two hours. But the fun thing is that I will be spending time with my friends. The other thing fun about Bible Quizzing is that you sit on the pads and the quizmaster reads you a question and then you jump up to tell the answer. If you are the first to jump, you have thirty seconds to tell the answer in the book. You also have to study hard every day to know the answers and memory verses. You get points for correct answers. If you answer four questions you get extra points. You also get points for your church and by the end of the year they see who got the most points and then they give out trophies. It is so fun to be in Bible Quizzing.

The Fun Day

Today I had fun with two of my friends, Ticklish Princess and Beanie Baby. I love my friends they are funny and can cheer you up when you are down and sad. That’s what friends should do for you and you do the same for them. That’s what friends are for and you should respect them. I had fun when we went shopping, and we were laughing and talking and trying things on. We were there from 12:00 to 5:00 and that was the fun time we spent together. It was like we were separated for a whole summer we didn’t hang out a lot but now we are back together and I’m happy.
