Hello! Today I don't have my pitchers today.^^ I'm sorry, its my first time and I've been really busy this week. On Monday I had to put up the Christmas lights for my house because my parents were too busy to do it. As usual I get a lot of homework from school and ODC. Just in case you didn't know ODC is a art program for those who have past their test. I took my test in the 3rd grade. Too bad ODC stops when I get to 8th. Any way on Tuesday I put up the Christmas tree with my family. Wednesday I cleaned up the back yard with mt mom. It was the usual, rake the leaves, help plant the flowers, sweep the concrete floor. Yes, I have a concrete ground instead of a wonderful porch. Yesterday I just wasn't feeling good. Those are the reasons why I don't have my drawings.
Lets talk more about ODC!^^ This Tuesday I'm going to see the Lion King in Chrysler Hall! Jiezl, who is also on the Brandon on line magazine, is coming with too, along with all the other ODC students! I'm so excited! ^^ I'm so excited I can't type fast enough for my thoughts! ^^ LOL The only bad thing about it is that I have to dress up! I don't like dressing up!
Something else that I'm doing in ODC is that we're doing a play. The dancers of ODC are going to do the dancing, we're just making the costumes. We're doing the story called Jambuti. It's about a turtle that plays the flute wonderfully. When the forest animals here the flute they don't like it because it reminds them of all the tricks that Jabuti played on them. For example the Cheetah remembers how he tricked him into chasing his tale. All the animals except the birds don't like him. When he plays his flute they all dance and sing with him. The only bird that doesn't like him is the vulture because he can't sing like all the other birds. The king of heaven invites all the birds to come and sing for him. Jambuti wants to go too so the vulture says he'll take him. When there half way there the vulture drops him. Jambuti breaks his shell on a rock and brakes his shell. The birds come down and look for his shell pieces. When they get all the pieces together they each have something special.The humming bird got his bright green stomach, the toucan got his beautiful orange beak, and the macaws got his orange tips on his stomach. That is the story. Next time I'll tell you what costumes I have to make!Bye!
