In 1999 many things happened. I finished 4th grade, started 5th grade went on trips over the summer and much much more.

First, I finished 4th grade. It ended on June 9th, 1999. It was sad to see all my 5th grade friends leave to middle school. Now I'm in 5th but I'm having a really fun time. Sometimes I have a lot of home work.

Over the summer of 1999 we went on lots of trips. One of them was the trip to San Diego. We went there because of a family reunion. I had tons of fun and so did the rest of our family. We also went to our grandparent's house in California. We had fun there too. We went to a couple of other places also. That's all the big trips we took.

I am in the student council. We organize events for the school. We have parties and play games too. I am the treasurer of the Crazy Critters 4-H club. We learn how to decorate cakes and we sold wreaths to raise money and have creative cooks contests.

I also turned 10. I had a very fun time. My friends and I went to a restaurant for my birthday. The name of the place was Casa Bonita. It has games, food, a big waterfall and cave inside the restaurant. I had tons of fun. I'm going on 11 now! I have been taking piano lessons for a year and a half and I started singing in the ward choir this year.

In 1999, I did many things. Here are some of the things I did.

I finished 1st grade and now I am in 2nd grade. I am learning lots of stuff in 2nd grade. Things like math and the Revolutionary War. I learned about space and how far light travels in a year. My teacher for 2nd grade is Mrs. Roe. It is very very fun to be in her class.

I like to read Harry Potter books and Hardy Boys books. Mostly chapter books or books about subjects I like such as Egyptian mummies, black holes and the moon, dinosaurs and disasters.

I'm playing on a basketball team in the Bruins league. It is hard but fun. I used to play soccer. Before that I ice skated. In soccer, my favorite position was being the sweeper who plays in front of the goalie and trys to block the ball and kick it back up.

I have lots of history in my family. Like my Grandpa in the Vietnam war, which was 30 years ago. My other Grandpa has done many things too, like re-doing his house and working as a test pilot at the air force base in Edwards, California.

I will be turning 8 soon, so I can go into Cub Scouts and be baptized in the Church.

I like people to be my friend because they come to school with me. My school is Willow Creek. It is a blue ribbon school that's because it has a blue ribbon.

At school I have letter of the week. Each time I get a new letter of the week. We make them and it shows you and we learn to read words but we have not graduated yet. My teacher is Mrs. Beguin. I am in kindergarten. I am 5 and one half years old. We have some centers. A house, blocks, game table, listening, a table with Mrs. Beguin where we read and draw. There is a book center too. We do math sometimes and we have two art rooms. One is a little kids and one is a big kids. We have lots of chairs and tables. We have specials. PE is gym, art, music and computer.

I take piano lessons and go swimming each time of day with Mom after school. I learned how to ride my two-wheeler this year. I do not ride my two wheeler now because it is too cold outside and the roads are icy. I like to play Pokemon and legos and I like to play with my beanie babies. I love to watch the History Channel with Harrison and my Dad. I like to play with my friends at school like Parker, he was in preschool with me and Peter and computer games. After Christmas it is going to be the year 2000. I don't know anything about the year 2000, maybe it is 2000 years.
