Topic: Weather
So I personally think that the weather is way to cold. It’s insane that it is only in the 60s or 70s in early September, when it should be still in the 80s. I thought it was way to cold this summer too, especially in July.
I think this winter will be extremely cold, just because it is so cold now. That’s okay, because I personally like the cold weather, which makes no sense since I’m always cold. I think that it will probably be snowing by the end of October, which is to early for snow if you ask me, because even if I like the cold weather I don’t like snow.
Something I worry about with the cold weather is, if it’s so cold now and it gets extremely cold during winter, how much school we will end up missing. I do NOT like missing school because of snow because I don’t like making it up at the end of the year. I would rather just go through the whole school year with maybe 1 or 2 snow days because then we don’t go into my summer.

September 1, Entry 1
Topic: School Flooding
We were sitting in out seventh hour study hall, when an announcement came over the intercom for all bus riders to go to their assigned classroom in the high school. When the elementary students started arriving to the class they had no shoes on. I turned to Kayla and asked her what was going on, and then the elementary students started talking about how there was water coming into the elementary classrooms through the windows. Then all the non-bus-riding students were told to go to the commons.
When I got out there I saw my little two little sisters, Madi was crying and Savannah was with one of Madi’s friends. Madi was crying because she couldn’t find Savannah, and Savannah was crying because she was scared. When I go over to Savannah I hear a loud whistle, when I turn around my mom is announcing that the city needs help sandbagging.
My friends and I pile into my moms van, we go to my house to change but the road is closed because of all of the water in the ditch, so we have to go all the way around and cut through people’s backyards.
When were done changing we all pile back into my mom’s van. We drive halfway to the sewer plant, then we have to walk over the railroad tracks and through a ditch full of water. When we got there they had already filled all of the sandbags and were loading them up. We took a different way back. First we had to go through waist deep water, I had to go first, then we went over the railroad tracks again, finally we had to go through thigh-deep water that had a fast current.
When we got through all of that we piled into the back of a truck and got a ride back up to the school. After looking around for my mom, we piled into the back of my dad’s truck and drove around for a while. At last we drove home. We were all a mess.
But I will say it was the most exciting day of school EVER!!
