I Finally Did It Classtopians!

Yessss!!! I finally did it! I cannot believe it! You may be wondering why I am so HAPPY. I am so happy because I finally got my grade of Chorus from a C to a B and now to an A. I am so happy. My family got so happy that they bought me a new sweater of Tommy Hilfiger and  a New Sweater. I love it when I get good grades because I am in a good mode and I get new stuff.

So Classtopians, What grades do you have in school?

The Wreck Of The Miranda

On November 15th, 2018, I will be performing in front of all the middle schoolers in my school. I feel so nervous, but when the day gets closer, I feel more nervous. Every Tuesdays and Fridays, My Chorus class and I  went to the auditorium to practice parts of the scenes. 

What do you do Mariana? I am a Greek chorus, flat mover, and hospital staff. I have three jobs and that is why I am SO nervous. The company that is helping us with the performance is LA OPERA. My Chorus class has to make them thank you cards. I forgot to mention that my performance is an OPERA performance. The show is called The Wreck Of The Miranda. The show is by Nathan W. and Matthew L. The performance is basically about 2 students in a magnet school, Angela and Eva. A fish trawler crashes and they lie that the ship came safely and that chemicals didn't spilled in the oceans, but chemicals did spill in the ocean. People get sick and Angela suspects something. She tries to convince her classmates that something isn't right. With the help of her teacher and her classmates, she will figure this out. 

I can't wait for the day. We had to vote of what to wear. The choices were to wear school uniform or wear all black. We chose all black because we thought it would be comfortable. (We wanted black because we didn't want to wear uniform.... shh) My Chorus teacher wanted us to wear uniform because since the scenes are usually in a classroom, she said it would make us look "better". So the choice was black. The performance will be during 5th period and it will be 49 minutes. I am so nervous!!!

Wish Me Luck!

Science Project

In October 8th, 2018, in my science class, we started a Cell Project. We have to build whatever we want, but we have to put cells inside it. Some people are doing a fair, library (I am doing that), Tilted Tower from Fortnite, and more. I am doing a library with my friend Jacqueline, and Tristan. Before we started to build, we had to draw an analogy. When we were done.... I almost forgot. You may be wondering, what analogy did you draw? I drew a sketch of what our Library project would look like. We voted on which one was better and we chose mine. We are being graded for this project. We are hoping we can get an A. We also have to do a digital presentation for it. We planned on rapping it, but we don't know how to rap. It will be turned in Friday October 26th. It was supposed to be turned in on October 19th, but since we got behind schedule, we moved the due date to Friday. We hope we get a good grade.

In my math class, we are also doing a project. The project is about Hidden Figures. We had to find a women scientist that changed the world. I chose Marie-Curie. I have always wanted to study bout her. She was a french Physicist that found 2 idioms. My drawing is perfect to me, but I don't know ho it would look like to others. I am making a movie poster. It looks like.. A title of what she did, a drawing of her, and our name in the bottom. I hope I get an A on that.

So Classtopians, Are you doing a project in school/home. Or a project related to school, if so, what is it about?

My Hidden Figures Project

My groups's Project

My Favorite Class

What is my favorite class??

I'd never thought about that until now!! My favorite class is usually History. My favorite class is History because I get to learn about Ancient history. What I have learned is about Hominids, Hunters, gatherers, Farmers, Sumerians, and City-States. 

You must be thinking.. What are Hominids? Hominids are prehistoric humans. There were 5 groups of Hominids. The 1st group was Australopithecus Afarensis or known as Southern Ape. Lucy was part of Southern Ape, but she was Biped.  The 2nd group was Homo Habilis. The 3rd group was Homo Erectus. The 4th group was Homo Sapiens Neanderthalensis. The last group was Homo Sapiens Sapiens. 

Sumerians are earliest historical region of southern Mesopotamia. A City-States is a city that with its surrounding territory, it forms an independent state.

I really learned a lot in History class. I hope I can learn about more ancient things.

So Classtopians, What is your favorite class in middle school??

Starting Blogging Again

Wow! I can not believe that I have not written a blog since June 5th, 2018. My last blog was about Ending Classtopia. I have so many things I want to share with you. 

Well, let's start with Summer vacation. I went to many places. 1st, I went to Fresno to visit my uncle because it was his birthday. 2nd, I went to Vegas because it was my god sister's birthday. 3rd, I went to the movie theaters to watch Hotel Transylvania 3, Incredible 2, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, The Meg (It was scary, sad, and funny). I went to the pool. I saw my BFF, Lindsay, sometimes I went there. I went to my police program. I went to the next rank, Corporal. 

Now let's talk about school. I started school August 14 and some schools started August 15th. When I got to school, I was nervous because I saw people knowing each other and hugging each other, but I was sad because I didn't see any of my friends yet.  I was looking for my homeroom in a white paper, where everyone' name was on it, but I didn't find my name. Sooner, I found out that it was by last name. I saw some of my 5th grade classmate's name, but they were in a different school and some were in this school. I saw Katherine's name, Bianca's, Daniela's Jessica's, Yasmin's, Jesse's, Nathaniel's, but they go to my school. The names I saw that are not in my school were Lindsay's, Elizabeth's, and Diana's name. 

I have 7 periods. My first period is math, second period: Math, third period: science, fourth period: English, fifth period: Chorus, sixth period: Ancient Civilization (History), and my seventh period is P.E. I got my schedule changed because there were to many kids in the class, but it wasn't just me, it was other people too. I met a new friend, Jacqueline. She is my BFF. She helps me understand things I didn't know and she is always there when I need her. I am with her in all my classes. Even though we got our schedules changed, we still have the same classes together. I am with Daniela and Katherine in my 4th period, English. In 7th period, I am with Jesse, but we don't talk to each other. 

I got my 10 week report card and I am so happy. I have in 1st period:ASS, 2nd period, AEE, 3rd period: AEE, 4th period: AES, 5th period: BSS, 6th period: AEE, and 7th period: AEE. Every Wednesdays in P.E, we have to run the mile. The mile is basically running the whole P.E field 2 times. I have an A on that. 

I forgot to mention that a few weeks ago, there was a school dance in my school. The tickets cost $5.00. I begged my mom and dad to go and they said yes because I brought 3 A's from Math, History, and Science. We had to wear a wristband to wear free dress. We had so much fun. We danced, ate, and laughed. The songs they played was Caballo Dorado (Golden horse: A Mexican dance), In my feelings and more. 

In my school, there is this event that is going on about Halloween. The events there are is: Door Decorating Contest, art contest, and costume contest. We also had a day where we had to vote for student bond president. The students that I chose were 3 students and they won. 

I love my new school. It is my homeschool. If people told me what was your favorite schools, I would say my elementary school and my middle school. 

So Classtopians, Do you like your middle school? And Why?

My Band Raises Oaxaquenias

I've already told you that I joined a band in late June. But what I didn't tell you was that I have stayed in the band, and am still going. Some exciting things have happened, so read on to find out more.

As you know, people can hire us and we go play at a party for a determined amount of time. So far, I've gone out to play my clarinet 4 times. 2 of them were for free, but the other two were paid. I am supposed to get paid twice a year, or something like that. Of course, I'm not going to get like $1000 or something, because there are about 17 kids in the band, and the money has to be divided between all of us. So I'll probably get $20 for every 3 hours. I guess this is really cool, since now I will be able to buy something here and there, or just save it all. But the best part is, playing the clarinet is not THAT hard, so I don't have to put much work into earning $20. (Not that I don't try to play good.)

So now you know what I will most likely be doing on the weekends.

Middle School and A Sprained Knee

Middle School and A Sprained Knee

Most recently I started Middle School. For most people this can be a nerve-racking experience. 

                  For me I racked a few nerves. Okay, it was nerve racking, but let me tell you why. At first, I felt ready with all the practice my elementary school teacher gave me, and the things to do in  middle school. When I got there I found an old friend that was in 7th grade and I knew him from a magnet class at my school back in 3rd grade.

                  So I find my class (Ahem Ahem my advanced accelerated classes) and wait for the bell to ring so I could go to my class. nothing really happens for these past 5 weeks until the 3rd week. I was in my regular schedule until after lunch recess. I was doing pull ups on a pull up bar when someone who I am going to call James, said he could help me with my pull ups and I replied "No I'm fine I don't need help with anything".

                  When I got back on the pull up bar he pulled my leg and I had my knee bent when I had my knee fall on the floor so I assumed I had broken my leg or something, because my tissues were exposed.

                 Anyway I couldn't get up so they called the school nurse for a wheelchair. They helped me get up on the wheelchair. They called my parents and told them what happened. My dad took me to an urgent care hospital. While he filled out a form. He told me a few jokes and my dad was questioned about my medical problems. When we were done with all of the questions. I was taken into a room where they would take X-Rays.

                  They talked to my dad about how I actually didn't break or fracture my knee I sprained it. I can't do P.E for another week or so.
