Fall


For those of you who actually read this blog, thanks, and sorry I haven't written in a while. My life has been crazy.

Anyways, it is beginning to be fall. I love fall time. (Who doesn't?!?) The trees are turning red and yellow and it is chilly outside. Don't forget, pumpkin carving and pumpkin flavored everything. We can dress up and get free candy on Halloween and on Thanksgiving we eat lots of turkey and pie. 


Fall is a sign of winter. It's coming. But, hey, that is okay with me.

This poem is a nonet. It has nine lines and the first line has nine syllables, the second has eight syllables, and so on. Beach a cerulean horizon and glitter spouting from the sun's rays foamy waves breaking nearby boats drifting off to sea sand between my toes marshmallow clouds spotted shell fishhook sea

Work and Play

Image
Lately I have been thinking about work and play. I think both are important. This actually reminds me of a poem. Work M. A. Stodart Work while you work, Play while you play; This is the way To be happy each day. All that you do, Do with your might; Things done by halves Are never done right. I love this poem. It is short, but so true. When we are working, just work. Don't do half of the job.  I have a job at a garden shop. I just water plants and do other little jobs, but I really enjoy it. I like how I can get sweaty and tired. It makes me feel like I was working hard. I also think it is interesting how  M. A. Stodart (the poet) mentioned play. Play (in my opinion) is just as important as work. There needs to be balance though. Everyone can have different ways to play or have fun. For me, I find reading, crafts, and hiking fun. I think if we have a good balance of work and play, we can be happy. What do you do for fun?

Vincent and Theo: The Van Gogh Brothers- Book Review

Image
I really enjoyed reading Vincent and Theo: The Van Gogh Brothers written   by Deborah Heiligman. It was very interesting and easy to understand and read. This book is about the life of Vincent and Theo Van Gogh. Theo supported Vincent most of his adult life. Vincent would not have become the painter we now know without Theo. Although their stories had a tragic ending, it was so fascinating to read about them. This is a YA book, but it is good for all. I definitely would recommend this to someone who loves art. Here are some things I liked (+) and disliked (-) about this book: +Very interesting + The author's formant and use of pictures was original and so lovely + I learned a lot - I sometimes got mixed up with the different characters, but I think that this was mostly my fault - Sad ending - A bit long (409 pages) Overall rating:**** (4/5 stars)
