Records and Reflections

Today I saw, a couple on a motorcycle. When I was in the bus, going back home, I looked out the window to see a crazy family on a motorbike. They were doing the Chinese or Taiwanese style of riding a motorcycle with your whole family. First there was a girl. Then the father who was driving. Then a baby squished up in the middle of her father and mother, who was next. Finally, there was a boy that seemed about 10 years old, behind his mother. It is a pity that I couldn't take a picture but it surely was CRAZY!
 
Yesterday I felt nervous, knowing that today I would be going to a Year Five classroom. It felt like my tummy was itching and I kept on thinking I had forgot something which I didn't. It was crazy. But then I went to sleep and I calmed down. I just wished I would be okay.
 
Last week I learned some things about Slavery. In Topic last week we were learning about slavery and I was stunned by the number of things that you can learn about it. I knew what slavery was, but nothing about the history of it. We focused on how explorers and sailors went out of their way to capture slaves. Slaves that were captured would even help the 'white people' to catch other Indians so they could get money. After sailors captured slaves they would sell them! Disgusting it is.
Thank god in the 20th or 19th century it was stopped but even today it still happens.
 
Tomorrow I hope it will be as 'smooth' as today. I had a pretty calm and easy day and I hope tomorrow will be something of the kind. But I have PE and that means SWIMMING and that could shake things up a little. However, I think and hope tomorrow will be calm.
