There are so many people I would want to invite to dinner, but these are my top three: Elon musk, Mr. Beast (real name-James Stephen Donaldson) and Bernard Arnault. First I choose Elon Musk to eat with. I choose Elon Musk because he is the third richest person in the whole wild world. With this advantage I can buy any expensive cuisines without worrying of my empty wallet. I would want to eat expensive cuisines because not everyone can afford these expensive cuisines! But! With him I can! Expensive cuisines equals delicious food! I love delicious food! Next I choose Mr. Beast. I choose Mr. Beast because I heard his beast burgers is really tasty. I would want to try eating there because of how good people are saying about it. I can internally east there for free without any additional payments charges. Lastly I choose the most richest person in the world. Bernard Arnault! With him (richest man in the world) anything is possible! We will go to the most expensive restaurants everyday! I would want to go to so much expensive restaurant everyday because whats the point saving? When you’ve got billions of dollar! We can go to more expensive food restaurant! That means more delicious flavors! All three of us will go to the most expensive restaurant, Sublimotion in Ibiza! Average of two thousand four hundred dollar average per dish! I choose this restaurant because its expensive and delicious. This is a seafood restaurant! Seafood is delicious yet very healthy! I want to eat to satisfy my flavors! Not satisfying my stomach hunger!

For the month of March I have been reading a book called HEROES. The author of this book is by ALAN GRATZ. This is a historical fiction book about Pearl Harbor. A country that was ambushed attacked. And a friendship proven. December 6,1941 two best friends who were named Frank and Stanley who were with their dads stationed at Pearl Harbor naval base at Hawai. The two best friends enjoyed speaking in the water while writing and drawing their own comic books. While they enjoyed their time together, they did not know there was an incoming World War II raging overseas. So far America avoided the fight. December 7, 1941 war officially begun. Frank and Stanley were on a tour on a battleship when Japanese planes started zooming overhead. Bombs after bombs exploded as the planes dropped them. Explosion roared louder than a tsunami. Noises screeched inside the battleship. Sailors screamed but nothing was able to be heard. Frank and Stanley could not believe what was happening! Japan has attacked America! It was not a joke, it was official! The war has came to them. The disaster and danger was everywhere! Bullets flying everywhere in the beach. Submarines launching torpedo under water. Planes flying and dropping bombs everywhere! This was a madness! Because of this the boys struggles to find safety and shelter. After the war, the Americans lost to the Japanese. Stanley is suddenly seen as a “enemy”. Stanley who is a Japanese American faced discrimination and hate. His friend Frank is caucasian and could not understand the amount of hate and discrimination Stanley had to deal with. They both made it out in the infamous day, but will their friendship and dream continue? Or has everything they know will be forgotten?

Heros is a great book explaining the war during Pearl Harbor. Heros provided great dialogue between Frank and Stanley. As the friendship and bonding gets stronger as they face intense situation together. Heros was not only about pear harbor, but teaches you what a true friendship is! If you ever want to read a book that educational, but can one day help you with friendship bonding, read Heros!

My most favorite character is Stanley. Stanley is my most favorite character is because he is always brave and bold. An example from the book was on page 15. “Then we might as well die trying to do the right thing!” During this situation Frank said he and Stanley would die if they stayed a minute longer in the battle ship due to hundreds of Japanese planes dropping bomb. Stanley said it’s better dying for the right thing than escaping like a coward. This shows how brave Stanley is.

My most favorite quote from the story was on page 128. “Help means help, said Stanley. It doesn’t mean fight for me. It means fight with me.” Frank who is a coward, did not want to be involved with any of this war. Stanley pursued Frank to help him fight with a simple statement. He wasn’t forcing Frank to fight and protect him. But instead, to fight beside him! This is like a loyalty companionship! Instead of bossing someone to protect and fight for you, they fight beside you! This is different, but shows loyalty which each others! This loyalty goes both ways! Not just using one as a shield. They watch and protect each other’s back! One won’t die for another, instead they will die together. There’s a total of fifteen graphic. After the Heros story, it showed eleven pages of comic book stories on what Frank and Stanley wrote before the attack. The next two graphics was a picture of the December 7, 1941 Pearl Harbor map. The last two graphics is the front and back cover of the book. The front book cover is both Frank and Stanley standing in the dock watching as the japanese attacks the Americans. Bombs, shootings exploding graphics. Battle ships sinking and exploding and Japanese airplanes shooting everywhere at the battleship. Lastly the back page book cover graphic is a picture in a beach with an exploded battleship.

If I could have any job in the entire world, it would be a landlord. A landlord is a person who owns multiple property and collects rent every month from their tenants. I would want to be a landlord because most people always have sleep deprivation because of staying up late for work or doing any other work related stuff to earn money. They would either do this for a salary raise or to avoid getting he/she targeted and later getting fired from the job. Most people work for the money than letting the money working for themselves. This means “to achieve financial freedom by using money you’ve earned before, to generate even more money ”. If you don’t understand the quote, it basically means to not chase money but let your money you’ve earned before, to generate even more money. It will take a while, but one of the ideas is to invest your money and continue investing throughout the years of your life to increase your wealth. By leaving your money in the bank without investing it, the value of it will deplete. Once you’ve retired from working all your money will only be enough for living expenses, food and clothes. While you invest your value of your money will gradually grow bigger and bigger. For example if I invested one hundred dollars, over thirty seven years I will have a total of one hundred thousand dollars which is enough for living expense and others! Imagine if you invested to a even higher value than one hundred dollar’s! If your still a kid and have a bank account? You still have time invest now! The value does not mater! The main point is the increase! Most people worked very long hours for their salary and yet used everything in life needs without being able to enjoy it. This is not applied to all works, but mostly it is. Additionally getting a raise at work is hard! And requires lots of your hours at work! But if you’re a landlord you can give yourself a raise! You don’t abuse it but when it’s time for a raise, you raise the price! Besides giving yourself a raise, there’s a lot of other benefits about being a landlord. For example you wont be afraid of getting fired from your side job. With the amount of money/income you receive as an landlord every month, you can use that as your full time job in case your boss fired you. Or if you want to retire and be a full time landlord and not wanting to do home repairs? Well you can just hire handyman to fix any repairs with cost. Lastly in my opinion being a landlord allows you to choose who you want to work with. Unlike a work environment where you have to work with people who you don’t like, but you have to pretend to like them to survive in the job and not be targeted and get eliminated. As an landlord you would choose who you thinks has a good personality with good income/credit scores to work with. You’re not trying to find a life partner but you have to find someone who you can interact with, and work with. You don’t have to pretend to like them. If you don’t like the tenant who you’re working with? No need to suffer feeling stress working with them and pretend liking them to continue working with them. Kick them out and find a new tenant that will suit your working style! But remember respect goes both ways. As an landlord you must do your part by being respectful towards your tenants. By having respect both ways, this will make your tenants to continue renting form you (long term renting)! Finally, Here’s how it would start as an landlord. As a beginner landlord you would start at zero and begin saving money up by working in a good salary amount of paying. Once you have enough you buy a house! Once that house is bought you save up you’re work money also, including your rent money that you get every month! As you get more house’s the easier is to buy another one. It’s like this if there’s a big mess and theirs just one person cleaning, it will take forever. But with with ten people’s help, the mess will be cleaned very fast (Just an analogy). This is just like buying houses as a landlord. Having just one property will take long to save up for the next, but as you continue saving and buying multiple property and listing them for renting, owning multiple property makes you able to collect so much more money in a faster time period for the next house for you to buy! For example, one house rent is worth one hundred dollars a month. The next house you wanted to buy is one thousand dollars. You may have to wait ten months to purchase it, but once you saved enough money you continue buying and expanding your properties and repeat the cycle! As a landlord you should continue expanding the amount of property you own. Once you get to five houses after saving a while, you just wait two months till you get the next house that costs (one thousand dollars). And that’s the main trick on being successful as an landlord (expanding the amount of your properties). Most landlord just buys one or two houses and stop buying. A successful landlord will continue to expand their rental houses collection. As simple as it might be, maintaining the houses is tough. The main key of being a landlord is to not fall asleep and be dedicated to every problem that’s out there. This means to always be dedicated and responsible for every problem your tenant reached out to you. Other wise they will take advantage of you. This means they won’t pay you rent, but still stay in the house. This will cause you to receive no rent money. If you’re not receiving rent for months then you must act quick. The worst case to solve this problem, you have to call a sheriff to kick the tenant out. Second reason why I want to be landlord is because you gain lots of financial knowledge. With this knowledge people will not be able to trick me easily with anything related to finance whether I’m making bill transactions, buying a house or making a financial deal with he/she. Third reason why I want to be a landlord because its nice collecting rent every month without doing anything if you’re lucky. Such as home repairs and tenant dramas. I basically collect free money without doing anything unlike real jobs. Real jobs requires hours and hours of your hard work and dedications in the office depending on you’re job level/role. I’m not saying being a landlord does not require you’re hard work and dedication, but it’s slightly different! Being a landlord is a whole new discussion of work. As a landlord it’s important to have time management, dedication, hard work, being focus at all times and not falling asleep on any problems. The main point that differs from regular work to landlord job is one thing, “you’re doing it to support you and you’re family not a company”. As a landlord everything is under you’re control which you have to be dedicated to what you’re doing, if you’re dedicate and hungry to what you’re doing, you will strive above and beyond to what you’re doing! It’s like this kids like playing video games, they strive to playing video games because they are dedicated to this! Another reason I want to be a landlord is because real jobs requires you to wake up at a certain time everyday and go to work early (such as going to school). if you’re a full time landlord you don’t have to wake up early unless there’s a problem to fix! It’s really relaxing being a landlord, but sometimes it can be really hard/stressing with an major house repair or recruiting people with good income/credit score to rent from you. Lastly my dream job is to be a landlord because with this amount of money and income I’m receiving every month, I would be able to help my family with any financial problems, or even giving them money for any kind of support. And lastly enjoying the money with my family by traveling all around the world. For me the main key of being a landlord is not just the money, but for me it’s always being able to stand by my family side being there to help them and support them, then being in the office for twelve hours! And what do you accomplish from being in a office for twelve hours? Getting a paycheck that will be spending every time you earn it!

For the month of February I have been reading a book called ALLIES. The author of this book is by ALAN GRATZ. This is a historical fiction book that’s about two boys named Dee and Sid. June 6, 1944: The Nazis are terrorizing Europe! This was a hard war! They needed allies and somebody they could rely on to fight besides with! The only way to defeat Germany was to bring the whole allied nation together to sworn German-occupied France. Dee is a young US soldier, riding on a boat towards the French coast (Normandy). Dee, riding on a Higgins boat terrified as a chicken vomits and wraps himself into a ball. A Higgins boat is a large boxed shape boat that can carry lots of soldiers with one singular motor which is very loud! It was going to be a hard war but Dee was not alone! Behind the war zone stood a girl in France named Samara. Samira works as a spy trying to help the US win by sabotaging the German army. A patrooper named James leaps in his airplane daring a midnight raid. Now the most important one, the medic! Henry is a medic that searches for injured lives to save! Sid had so much hatred to the German Nazi soldiers because of hitler. Sid was Jewish while Dee was German. Dee was German but left Germany because of the dictator ship of hitler. Allies was a form of alliance with France to attack Germany and defeat them together. Every second of their life everyone had to fight and face reality and complete their dangerous missions. With all the betrayal and deadly risks at every movement they encountered, they both had to make it out alive again!

Allies is a great way of learning the history while having some great suspense! Allies provide great fictional dialogue from two point view helping you build up the story on the two points of view on what they are doing to help form an alliance by sabotaging the Germans. Also with this information it’s helping you learn what the allies are? And how they took down the Nazis soldiers together as an alliance! Not only that but Alan Gratz did a great job teaching us the history of the war while including some realistic characters to add some suspense. Rather than a huge book all about the Nazi war that has no story line between human to human dialogue. If you ever want to read something that’s has suspense but that’s educationally at the same time? Read allies!

My most favorite character is Samira. Samira is my most favorite character because she is always caring and loving not only to only humans but towards animal! An example from the book was on page 34. “Samira couldn’t take it. She could not let the soldier shoot the dog, even if it meant to be captured herself.” This shows that she is even willing to risk her life being captured to save a dog from getting shot.

My most favorite quote from the story was on page 35. “She wasn’t going to do what her mother told her. She was going to do the exact opposite. Samira had already lost her father to the Nazis, and she wasn’t going to lose her mother too”. This is a meaningful quote to me because in this situation Samira mom was kidnapped by the Nazi soldiers, dragged by a horse in front of her daughter. With a screaming dying message her mom screamed in a different language (French) to escape! Samira could not afford to lose her mom! She went after her not wanting to lose her just like how she lost her dad. There’s a total of one graphic. Which is the cover of the book. The cover of the book is a picture of Dee in a Higgins boat landing on the war zone (France Normandy beach) ready to fight the German Nazi soldiers. A Higgins boat is a large boxed shaped boat that can carry lots of soldier with one singular motor which is very loud! As the door opens, explosions and gun shots occurred in the picture. Other graphics included parachutes, tanks, explosions and hedgehogs(6 sided pointed ball ish pike) that was used for anti-tank and anti-landing craft.  

I was granted with invisibility for twenty-four hours and here are four things I would do when I’m invisible! If I was granted invisibility for twenty-four hours, I would rob a bank. To rob a bank I will not smash the window or anything to get the money. Instead I would wait for an approved guard or someone depositing their money to open the heavy armored door and I will quietly go with them. As they open their vault I will take everything and run away! Secondly, if I was granted invisibility for twenty-hours I would dine and dash. Usually when people dine and dash they always get caught, but not me! Since I’m invisible I will order my food through my phone and tell them to leave the food on the restaurant table. As I arrive to the restaurant I will gobble everything and run! Another reason if I was granted invisibility for twenty-four hours, I would steal from expensive stores such as apple. I would steal from apple so I can always get the newest IOS device without even getting caught. Lastly if I was granted invisibility for twenty-four hours, I would jump-scare all the punks at my school!

Imagine being stuck on an abandoned island. That is my life! Boom…! I just came from the sky. I landed onto the salty waters that filled my eyes into tears. The sand and rocks tickled my feet as a started to walked down the dead island. There was nothing but a palm tree and sand. The sun beamed at me as I climbed the eighty feet tall coconut tree to get many coconut. By the time I got my coconut I was very thirsty. If I was thirsty I would drink coconut. Therefore ocean water was not drinkable. At night I found nothing but small crabs. No fish. Just crabs. The salty juicy crab meat flavored my mouth as I started chewing. I felt like I was eating salty sand then meat. But it was still food. For shelter I dug an hole and sleep using the coconut tree as my blanket. Once I woken up I caught more crabs and ate them. Lastly for lunch I ate the same food which is crab. There was nothing but sands and trees. But I had to make it alive there.

Imagine being with your friends and then stepping on their shoes. You would expect them to look down at their feet convulsed and going back to their work. Or you saying sorry and they say “that’s alright”.But getting reported to the office is just overacting. During math class we were able to sit with anyone such as friends etc. One of my friends joined me, and so did a random kid. We were yapping here in there until I accidentally stepped on his shoes(by stretching my legs). I later said sorry for stepping on his feet. He was convulsed and went back to his work. As he started to get annoying while me and my friend were talking together I decided to play with him by sneaking attack him by tapping his shoes, not stepping, just tapping. He went insane and wrote my name down his “Criminal Case Booklet”. He then wrote a whole paragraph about me plus my first and last name. This “Criminal Case Booklet” is where he document every little things kid did to him. He threatened me that her would report me to Mrs. Swain as I told him I was just joking. He told me stepping on his shoes was equivalent to stepping on his face. So here it is.

The quote shown below explains we must face what’s right and easy. For example this quote means to me like this-when you see someone drop their money on the floor it’s the easiest to just take the money and profit. What’s hard is doing the right way by being honest and confronting the person who dropped it. This situation is always tempting, but this is not the right way. This quote relates to me for a situation that happened in real life was when someone asks my help to carry chairs. Instead of declining on helping, which is the easiest to do (one less thing to worry about)! I helped and did what’s right.l

Somebody who I look up to as my hero is my mom. My mom is my hero, instead of always going out to eat she always cooks every day for me and my family. Everyday my mom is always cooking breakfast, lunch and dinner for my family to eat. Even though cooking breakfast, lunch and dinner is a lot of work. She always makes all of her cuisines with a lot of love. When you eat from a restaurant they always try their best to make their food great! And you know why? It’s for money and good business! But your mom’s food will always be better! And you know why? That’s because her food is always filled with love! Another reason why my hero is my mom is because how clean the house can always be! For example instead of playing with her phone, shopping or wasting time. My mom is always cleaning the house as clean she can to make the whole house spotless! Lastly my mom is my hero because she will always give me hugs and kisses no matter what. As a child we always make mistakes that disappoint our parents, but my mom is always the first one to forgive! Mom always does everything for me! She is my hero.

Instead of making a New Year’s resolution, I am going to focus on one word. That word is helpful. I am going to focus on being helpful around the house because I am already big and do not need to always be spoon fed by my parents. I will start by helping my parents, such as preparing the food when it’s done or helping on any other chores. Another reason why I want to be helpful around the house is because my parents have already done a lot for me, and they deserve a break with help. Lastly I would want to help my parents because my mom is always cooking, doing laundry and cleaning the house everyday for my family. Because of this she is always exhausted. Therefore I would like to be more helpful and try my best to reduce her work so she could rest. My main goal is just to be more helpful around the house.
