Today I'm just going to give you a small passage about what I did at swimming class today.
First, I got ready and I was on my way to swimming class. It was the last class, and we were going on the water slide at the very end of class! And I found out something suprising!
When it was 12:00 we started our lesson and worked our way to success! We always do bobs first [you stick your head in the water and hold your breath], then we did the ring game. The teacher threw the rings, and we would swim over and get it then swim back to the teacher, so we could give it to her and let the next person go.
When the girl before me was going I practiced my freestyle. I ended up doing it correctly! WoW!
Then we go to the deep end. It is soooooo deep there. [it's 3 times or more my height] Of course if you are not comfortable they let you wear a life jacket. We float there because we need to feel what will happen if there is an emergency and we need to swim or float.
Then it was time for the......WATER SLIDE!!!! We had to wait for the life guards to turn the water on and then we got to go on. I was soooo excited and scared, I screamed a little bit at first and then I ended up laughing! It was soooooo cool. I went on it 4 times in like 1 min, then we had to leave.
My mom was super proud of me because I over came my fear. We got our certificate and it said we could enter level 3!!! After I was done washing we went home and I started writing this post/blog for you to read.
That is my little passage I want to tell you. Thanks!

My Dream pt1
One night I had 2 dreams, and the first one had to do with my hamster: Marshmallow. You must read my other post if you do not know her. Well, it all started when I woke up [in my dream]. I found out there were 3 hamsters in the hamster cage. I couldn't believe my eyes! I had 2 new hamsters named: Brownie, and Ice Cream. They were cute though very mischievous.
We had to put them on my brothers train table because 3 was alot to keep in 2 hands. Each liked different foods. I put a bunch in though Each hamster only ate 1 type or 2 types of food. they all wanted food first so I fed them in my hand. It was funny.
And when ever I put my hand there they would all go for my hand and try to get on. If it was my mom, then only Brownie and Marshmallow would run to her hands. If it was my dad only Marshmallow and Ice Cream would go to his hand. And my brother and grandfather wouldn't go try to touch. With friends it was different, the three hamsters would just hide from them.
Marshmallow was the first hamster. She knows every one better, though Brownie and Ice Cream were still getting ready. I think Marshmallow was my favorite. It's hard to decide when they are all SO CUTE!!!! Then the sad part was that Marshmallow died and after a half a year the others did too. It was so sad I couldn't believe my eyes. and now that happend in real life.

I Really Really Really Want A Cat
Dear Mom and Dad,
You got me a hamster named Marshmallow, then she died, you got me a hamster named Hershey, then she died. And the same with C.C and Lollipop. I really want a dog. I love pets. This is a big opportunity. A new dog could be the sweetest and cutest animal you've ever seen. If we spend time with him, all our electronic time would be used. I would feed him and play with him and do everything with him. I will also give him water. I won't forget to do the things I'm supposed to do. I already took super good care of my mice and hamsters! I know you'll have a little spark inside saying, "Sophie is responsible, she can do it" . You're probably saying we will have to feed him 3 or 2 times a day, we will have to get him a litter box, we will have to give him attention, we will have to get him a toy, we will have to find him a place to sleep, we also have to let him on the bed, and we will spend a lot of money, and lots of other things. And I see why there can't be a "yes" to this "want" situation, And I know it's hard. Though I just want you to feel how much I want it, and I know why you guys will not let me have one, but I just want a chance to play with a bigger animal/pet and have some fun.
Your daughter who understands you don't have to agree,
Sophie

Good bye, Marshmallow
During the past few days, Marshmallow behaved abnormal. She did not sleep much during the day and she bit us a lot. Yesterday morning, I found her dead. Both Sophie and I are very sad, we miss her a lot. Although she was just with us for a month, we are so used to greet her every morning, play with her during the day, say good night to her everyday. Sophie is too sad to write this blog, so I am doing it. Maybe we won't have a hamster for a long time because we just miss our own Marshmallow.

"Hopscotch" Designs!
I am a very creative person! I love to do lots of types of art. Are you that kind of person then I think "Hopscotch" is a perfect app that you can use. I'll tell you why.
"Hopscotch" is about programing so you can make a project that others can try to play or watch. It lets you use different types of computer blocks that make the object do what you want it to do. Some of the blocks tell the object how to do it, some tell where the object do it the action, and some can even be programmed to draw the object! Once you're done and publish it, people can star or like if they think it's cool or funny or if they just like it. One last detail, it lets you be creative and use your imagination.
One day my mom told me she got a new app for me. I found out that it was a programing app called "Hopscotch". Since I didn't know how and what to do, my mom showed me how and what to do. After, we looked at some other projects other people made. Then I came up with an idea and started working on it. I was making a Chile flag. I needed to make the recipe so it can do exactly everything I want it to do, in which ever order I want.
My mom showed me what uses were the blocks for. I started working on my project, Some of the blocks I used were: set speed to, set line color to, set line width, set value........to, move with trail distance, change value...... by, and lots more!
Then I published my program, it will let you name your program and let you design your "Hopscotch" name. Once I published I got 3 stars in just 1/2 a minute! That's how you know if it is a good program or a not-so-well made. And if you don't have an idea you can look at the idea of the week by a group called the "Hopscotch Team". They will let you remix their idea and call it your own.
Now that you know what "Hopscotch" is sort of like you can download the app on your ipad and try it out yourself. Just be creative anything will do, just try to make some thing you want to do. Try ''Hopscotch"!

My Roborovski Hamster Named: Marshmallow
I have a super cute little hamster! Her name is marshmallow I got her on 6/26/2014. We were going to "Checkers" (a grocery store) and I saw this store called "Pet World". I've always wanted a pet, no matter how big or how small. And finally I asked if we could go look at the pets..... And they said yes! When we were checking out, one of my friends from Maryland called. {I just moved from Maryland to Kansas a couple of weeks ago}Her name was Grace/Bojie. I was sooooooo happy to talk to my friends!
We got to "Pet World"! It was so cool! The parrots cage had no roof! Neither did the other animals have any roof to their cage either! There were small amphibians and mammals! Like porcupines, chinchillas, and iguanas, not like the pet store in Maryland. And as always there are....fish. I told my friend all about it, but her mom said since we were at the pet store, we should enjoy looking at them. The time came when we were almost about to leave. My mom asked me if I wanted to hold a roborovski/robo hamster. I said yes, and she helped me pick her up.
My mom said they were sooooo cute and asked if I wanted one. I said Yes PLEASE!!!!!! Though she said if daddy also agrees we can get it. I asked him and he didn't look so sure, but said yes anyway. I was soooooo happy! I went to go ask a staff member and she helped us get all our things ready. The food, chew blocks, and tips to help us take care of the hamster. We didn't get the cage though, because my mom said that we can use a plastic box that we store our clothes in. The staff member told us one last thing. She told us she was 6 months old, then we went to check out.
When we got home I found out how to make bedding for her, gave her a name, gave her the chew blocks, made her a tunnel, a place to drink water, a place to eat and we got her a wheel a week after that.
Now I teach her tricks! She is sooo energetic. I researched again and found out she is the smallest and fastest dwarf hamster, and that you don't need to get a bag of hamster food, just some regular human food! Now I even put posts up about her, like this blog. I was very amazed by how quickly she learned her name!
I am pretty lucky to have a pet like her! Don't you think?

Pizza and Breakfast
I want pizza for breakfast and there are many reasons why. I'll tell you why right now.
First of all, pizza contains healthy ingredients, well some healthy ingredients, for example cheese that's from the dairy group, tomato sauce that's from the veggie group, sausage or pepperoni {if you have them on your pizza} from the protein group, and the crust which is from the grain group. Also because the pizza that we have is spicy. You like spicy things, so since my wonderful {who might give me pizza} mom likes to eat spicy things, don't you think that I should eat spicy things too just like my mom? Well I think so because then I can pass it down to my children.
Another reason is that we only eat small portions of the pizza.We don't eat that much! Well at least less than you because we're only children and I understand that grownups eat more than kids so you might only want to give it to children. And I am a child so maybe you should give it to me. There is a reason that follows along with this reason and it is my little bro. He is so cute! And I'm his sister so most of his cuteness comes from me. If I were his age right now I'd probably be cuter, doesn't mean I'm older I don't get less attention. And who can't give pizza to adorable children. At least I can't think of any people who don't.
Next reason is that, you can have pizza too! We just want some, I'm not saying you can't have any. Of course there is no limit. The other reason is when we're older we can earn money for you when you are retired and have to stay at home. Also, I'm your daughter. You can let your daughter get a treat once in a while. Next, is that I make you tons of cards and awesome presents even when it's not a holiday. Also, now I set the table, I make delicious smoothies, and cold popsicles for you.
Lastly, we love each other and care for each other and that reason I don't need to explain. I hope you think about what I said and how much love there is in this essay.
Thank you!!
