This week I listened to Micheal Jackson “Thriller.” This album gets a nine out of ten due to hits like “P.Y.T” and “Thriller.” The overall replay ability is close to none.. I love the vibe of the album. I like this album so much because I expected it to be okay. I thought it wouldn’t be that good. Now I understand why it’s the highest selling album of all time. A struggle Im facing is what albums to do. I only get to listen to six but I want to listen to ten. Also I couldn’t listen to Kendrick Lamar “Pimp A Butterfly.” Due to not being able to. I am planning on listening to it this week

My favorite room in my house is my garage. My garage is a gym and a little tv station. It’s me and my dad’s man cave and we love hanging out in there working out and stuff. I always put on the UFC fights for entertainment. It has a boxing station too which is fun to use. On the door is a mini basketball hoop that I love to play with. The whole vibe is really nice. The chances are slim since I live next to elders, but I’m always paranoid someone is going to break in. I always thought if anyone does I would run to the garage and grab one of the many choices of yard work tools like an axe or shovel.

For my 20% project I am ranking albums. This week I listened to “Miseducation of Lauren Hill” by Lauren Hill. My struggle with this album is I’m not really a big fan of it. The whole album is basically five minutes of repetitiveness. It sounded like a musical, and nothing is wrong with it sounding like a musical, it’s just I don’t t like musicals. Although it’s not my thing I do love her vocals on the album on songs like “Ex Factor.” This week I’m going to listen to “To Pimp A Butterfly” by Kendrick Lamar. My goal for this project is go through all of musics genres most popular albums. When I searched up what is the most popular rap album almost every time it said to listen to “To Pimp A Butterfly” I’m really excited to go deeper in this project.

In the novel “New Kid” by Jerry Craft we follow the character Jordon. Jordon love to draw and is going to his dream art school. But there is a problem. Jordon doesn’t fit in and he’s is the one of the only black students that attended the school. I liked this book due to its comedic nature and real life experiences Jordon goes through. My favorite Character is Jordon because I can relate to him with his situations. My favorite quote in the book is “OMIGOSH NBA 2k and it’s the new one.” This quote reminds me o when my parents got me the new NBA 2k on Christmas so it hits close to home for me.

I was with my child hood best friend and when we were about eight me and him would watch scary videos together. We would walk over to his great grandma’s cold dingy house because it fit the vibe and she lived across the street. We were watching the videos and boom she flashed up, La LLorona. Me and him brought a horrific screech. But Briggs [the friend] wasn’t the reason I screamed it was genuine and pure. Not like the ones in horror movies. We decided to stop watching the videos and we never brought it up again. Until now. Me and my friend were on a hiking trail. Off the trail was a sewage tunnel. We threw rocks down the sewage tun for pure amusement. SPLASH! We threw a couple more rocks down to hear the satisfying sound of the rocks slapping the water until I said this. “We summon you La LLorona.” I said jokingly. Legend has it you can summon her with just a specific amount of water. Reason is because she drowned her kids due to the grieve with the loss of the husband. He laughed but I knew he had felt uncomfortable me and we’re sitting in front of the tunnel. “Make a noise to make your self known.” BANGGGG! Me and him sprinted. He pulled out his phone to record and we walked cautiously back. My mom was on her way to pick me up so I said let it be known that whatever were talking to it may not follow us home then we heard a wailing shriek. We ran to a neighborhood then it hit me. I remember from the video that if you here a scream from far away it means she’s close. I brushed it off thinking it might’ve been a dog. It didn’t mater. There no way a the dog she decide to shriek as soon I said the ghost not to follow us. She was using the dog to talk to us.

If I could have dinner with three it would have to be with Jesus Christ, LeBron James and Tyler, the creator. Out of the three i would want to have dinner with Jesus the most. Jesus is the son of god. One reason I would like that is for answers. There’s a lot I don’t about but if he doesn’t show up I would have the answer to if he is real. Next is Tyler, the creator. Tyler, the creator is a musician who inspires me a lot. I have tons of personal that he has and he expresses that in his music. I would treat it like an interview and a therapy session. Next is LeBron James. LeBron is considered to be the best player to ever touch a basketball. I would love to talk about his legacy and basketball.

Ever since I could remember I always wanted to be any sports player but preferably would want to be in the MLB. I love baseball and it’s my dream to play for the Los Angeles Angles. Maybe one day to go down as the greats and be called “Mad Max” would be a dream come true. I would be playing right field and second base. After every game I would give a little kid my game use items like batting glove, jersey baseball cleat anything really. But as much as I want to be in the MLB I want to play for team USA one day. When I make it Ms. Moffat you are going to be like “I thought that kid.”

I woke up invisible. I sprinted out the house and took my mom’s car and left a note that I will be back. Then I will take her car keys and ride it to my sister’s work at the movies. She in real life she has been playing horror games a lot specially the paranormal. She would have a night shift. She would be a perfect target to mess around with due to her paranoia. I would first make a screaming noise and lock all the exits. She would be freaked the heck out. I would then scratch her (lightly) and push the slushy machine and turn off the power. I would then push her in a movie theater and play on a horror movie. I would take off my invisibility cloak off and turn off the movie and slowly creep up to her. And scare her I then.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid – RODERICK RULES Jeff Kinney is about a kid named Greg and his struggle of being a middle child. With his brother Rodrick always starting chaos and his younger brother telling on Greg, I liked this book due its playful tone and funny one liners. My favorite character is Rodrick because he is hilarious. Naming his band loaded Diapers. My favorite quote is from Rodrick asking “Where is the space bar again” I love this quote because it is funny

I live on an island. Im there for government research and testing. It’s sort of a doomsday base. After five days I was supposed to be picked up. Although I have weapons I’ve been paranoid. Like something is watching me, a group of people. I usually sleep in the middle of the island where it’s kinda like a jungle with shady trees I use for shelter. It feels like one hundred and ten degrees. Since I’ve been weirded out I’ve know been sleeping on the shoreline since its cooler. On day three I saw what looked like ten to thirteen people with spears. I thought I was going insane. Then did my daily swim stargazing and hunting. It’s hard to hunt when you feel like you are being hunted. On day five I waited for six hours for the government to pick me up. Then it hit me. The government didn’t send me here but I was too late. I got attacked by the tribe.
