In Social Studies Class we're doing these current issues letter. We
have to pick a current issue that effects the majority of people in
America. When we pick our issue we have to decide if it effects people
in a national, state, of local level. We have to research it and then
depending on whether or not it's local, state or national we had to
write to that representative. In the beginning I thought that it
wouldn't be fun but the more I got into it I started getting more
interested. My topic was Jon Walker and Military Tribunals. It was so
weird looking up on all of this information and when I was finished with
all of my research and started typing it was like I had written the
paper in my head already. MY opinions just kinda went into the paper. I
just handed it in so hopefully i'll get an A. The papers that get an A
will be sent to who ever the representative was that the student wrote
to. I wrote mine to the president.

My grandmother just bought a new camped and she's keeping it at our
house because we have more land then at her house. She's moving out of
her little house and we're (hopefully) building a apartment above our
garage and she will move into it and one day she wants to drive across
country in it. It's cute but it smells and it's the ugliest shade of
green. It's like the green on pea baby food. But it's cute and My
grandma, me, and my bestest friend Sarah and going to the beach in it
this summer.
