My Name?!

     In Ancient Hebrew, my name means "Yahweh has given." Yahweh was a ancient Hebrew god. According to the Old Testament, Jonathan was the eldest son of Saul and had a strained relationship with his dad due to his close bond with his father's rival David. David is my actual dad's name.
     At home my name means I'm in trouble, at school my name means answer the question that's on the board, and with friends it means what up.
     My name actually came from a movie my mom saw called "Tuck Everlasting" in 2002. The original movie came out in 1974. During 2002, my name was one of the top five boy baby names. I wouldn't change my name for a million dollars. 


      
      

If I Worked At a School

     I really had to think about this because I had to think a little bit more about myself and how I am as a person on this one. What subject would I work best at? I narrowed down to a school counselor, a P.E. teacher, or a technology teacher.
     For a school counselor I am a very vivacious person. I have both sympathy and empathy for others and am very open minded when it comes to understanding someone. I can relate to others on how they are feeling or what they are going through. I feel like having sympathy and empathy is key when it comes to issues in someone else's life because you could help them out better and more easier.
     When it comes to sports I can never pick a favorite sport. I play all kinds of different sports which is something a lot of people don't do. Some people just favor one or two sports because they are good at them, but I play variety of sports even if I'm not that good. But I always tell myself that team work is more important in a game than individual skill. As people say, "There's no I in team."
     On my dad's side of the family, we are tech savvy. My dad is really into computer science and technology, and is always showing me short cuts and new software. I always learn something new everyday about technology whether it is something to do with my laptop or my phone. Learning new things about technology is something I enjoy and find extraordinary, incredible, and phenomenal.
     When it comes to my conclusion, I would be a technology teacher for middle school kids. I picked middle school kids because that is the time where kids are getting laptops, phones, and other cool technology devices. By this time, kids have a general idea on how technology is and works.

What Am I Thankful For?

I'm sitting on my bed in my room. It's currently 10:27 p.m. and I'm blasting my music on full volume with my headphones on. I'm currently listening to "Don't Mind" by Kent Jones. I take a sip of my Pepsi look at my candy bag from Halloween and nod my head. I have so much to be thankful for. 

1. I am thankful for dinner because that is where my family has the most conversation, spending time, and "family time at the table."

2. I am thankful for my family that I have because some people don't have a family to love and cherish. 

3. I am thankful for the education that I have at GMS.

4. I am thankful for my mom's cooking because even though she doesn't have to cook for us, she does. But I don't complain because she can throw it down when it comes to cooking.

5. I'm thankful for my parents because without them, I wouldn't be here today where I am and I wouldn't have anybody to provide for 
me.

6. I am thankful for Netflix because the days that I'm bored, I can kill time buy watching a movie or my favorite shows.

7. I am thankful that I am healthy and have no health issues with my body.

8. I am thankful that I have friends who have my back and look out for me and one another.

9. I am thankful for today's technology and software because it helps with everyday needs and education for kids.

10. I am thankful for books because they improve intelligence, knowledge, and an increase in vocabulary.

My Go To Restaurant

I love going to Chili's and getting their famous mac n cheese. I always loved their mac n cheese as a little kid, since I was five. No restaurant can top theirs. The flavor is just on point, and they make their cheese from scratch. My favorite desert they make is the hot fudge, ice cream brownie. It is so delicious that whenever I eat it, I feel like I'm in paradise. It is a perfect desert for someone who has a sweet tooth. Basically it's a brownie with fudge inside of it with vanilla ice cream. Then they take more hot fudge and caramel, and pour it on the ice cream. I love it when they bring it, and you see the steam rising from the fudge brownie and the ice cream melting.

The Best TV Show Ever

My favorite TV show as a kid was Drake and Josh. I used to watch all the episodes that came out. I always liked movies and shows that would make me laugh so I would watch Drake and Josh. My favorite character was Drake because he was so much cooler than Josh. Drake would get all the girls, he was very popular, and he was in a band. Josh wasn't that popular, he was a nerd, but would get lots of attention. One of my favorite episodes was when Drake and Josh got trapped in a tree house because of their little sister. To bad they stopped making the show though.

Where Would I Be 10 Years From Now?

In 10 years from now I will be in college. I want to to go to college to get a really good job that I love and yet has good pay. I want to do something with animals like a veterinarian and a zoologists. Always as a little kid I loved animals and always wanted to have multiple pets, but this always changes to a doctor or chef. As a teenager I want to work at a restaurant like my brother and sister.  

Worst Plane Ride Ever!

     Last summer, I went to Puerto Rico. I was really excited because I had never been there so this would be my first time. I would be taking a four hour flight straight from Chicago, to the island. Going would be my mom, my aunt, my grandpa, my two cousins, and I. Our flight was at 6:30 AM, so we got there an hour early to check in.

     Once we boarded the plane, we took our seats. My cousin Jayden, mom and I sat together, and my aunt, grandpa, and my cousin Amaiya sat across from us. Sometimes I get a little nervous from flying cause every time we fly, I get a massive headache, so I made sure I took two Advil before we took off. "Hello ladies and gentleman", the Captain said. Please fasten your seat belts for take off. Then the engines roared. 

      When I woke up the plane was shaking and bags for flying off the shelves. I had no idea what was happening. The Captain spoke on the monitor and directed everybody to fasten their seat belts again. "Sorry ladies and gentleman, we are experiencing a little turbulence." Jayden's pop spilled all over his bag and hat. I was laughing even through the turbulence. Then everything stopped.
       I knew this was going to be a good summer vacation.

   

My Favorite Quote

Be a leader not a follower. Be bold, be brave, be mighty, be powerful. Sometimes life gets hard and you hold all the weight on your shoulders. "Throw me to the wolves and I'll come back leading the pack" means be optimistic and don't let anybody get to you because you are who you are.
