This week in geogrpahy we learned about Africa. We also took a test on Africa on Wednesday. this was our first test in a long time, so i had to get back to my study habits....even though i didn't want to. This was our first test with an essay and map questions on it. We usually have a separate map test and we never have essay tests. This was a lot to study for in one night, since I didn't study at all during spring break. I think i did pretty well on the test, but i am still nervous about what my grade will be. I'll be getting the test back on Monday!!! We also learned more about Darfur. We alreday had a socratic seminar over it, but we never watched a movie about it, so that's what we did this week. It was really good. It gives you a better perspective and picture of what is going on in Darfur.
This week had so many stuff happening in it. I went to a basketball game and a costume party. The costume party was part of a jewish holiday. Most jewish holidays involve praying, but this one doesn't. It is pretty much a bunch of parties. It's really fun. the holiday is called Purim. This is one of my favorite holidays. I could celebrate it because i was off from school. Good friday fell on the same day as Purim! I condsider this very lucky. I also went to a basketball game this week. it was between the San Antonio Spurs and the Boston Celtics. I was going for the Celtics even though the Spurs are a texas team. The Celtics won by one basket. I was so excited, but my brother was not. It bothgered me at first, but then i just told myself that he would get over it, which he did. This week might have been really busy, but it was really fun!!!!
This is the basketball game i went to, Spurs=white Celtics=green
