my second day was the worst day ever cause I had homework but fun homework and what else I don't like about it is that we have 2 teachers and what else I don't like about school is that recess is before lunch I mean I like changes but it is very hard for me because I have been here ever since it was built and things have changed a lot from what I was doing last year and the year before and the year before that even 2 so it has been very hard on me and so next year I really want things to change next year in the 5th grade so it won't be so weird for me and what else I really really want to change is our school time in the morning cause I really don't like waking up at 6:00 am every morning and it starts at 7:50 am so I really want things to change ok.

On my first day of school I was sooooo excited! I mean come on I was going into the 4th Grade, and we got to switch classes. But when I realized that we weren't going to switch on the first day of school I was kinda bummed, but it was ok. My new teachers are very nice they're like kids but my teachers. Most of my friends on my soccer team were in the other class, but i still had a lot of friends in my class. The most awsome thing is that we had recess before lunch. I'm always hungry at recess , but i went to lunch eventually. At lunch I got to sit by one of my best friends.I ate some of Taylor's beef jerky but she didn't mind. but after that we went back to the classroom and we learned some stuff. Then at the end of the day we packed up our stuff, and went home. When I got home my mom asked how was your day, and I said awsome!!!
