Humility

This is how I feel about humility. Being humble means to realize you’re not the best at something, or to realize someone is better than you. I think being humble is extremely important because God favors humility and hates pride. I struggle with humility in math, I find it hard to ask others for help when I know I should and when I help others I feel proud that they asked me. When others aren’t humble to me I feel angry. When they think they’re better than me they won’t listen to what I have to say, even though it could help them, they just decide to do their own thing without considering things.

My Favorite Books

These are my favorite books. When I was younger my favorite book was Duncan the Dancing Duck, because my name is Duncan. Obviously it’s about a duck named Duncan who dances. My mom would read it to me before I went to sleep some nights. My favorite book now is The 39 Clues. It’s about two orphans who search the globe to find the 39 clues. I really like these books so I am always happy to see the Dancing Duck in my room or to hear a new 39 Clues is coming out.

My Personality Profile

This is about my personality profile. Last Thursday Mrs. Cindy Rich came into my class and gave us a personality quiz. We had to answer questions about which trait is most like us in a row of character traits, giving the one most like us a 4 and the least a 1. At the end we added up our score in each column and whichever one had the most points would give a letter to describe us. My letter was “C” which basically means I like to think carefully before I do things, I like to work carefully and organized, and I like to work with like-minded people who can get the work done. I learned that I need to tell people what’s wrong with me instead of just thinking about it and bottling it up.

Things that Anna Needs to Know about Crown

This is what our new student Anna needs to know about Crown. First off, the teachers don’t go home every day, they sleep on the roof each night. Also, every day at two o’clock a hobo comes in and breaks all of our windows. She also needs to know that we have another student named Anna so we need to find a way to identify who were talking about when we say their name. They do have one major difference though... The new Anna is older by a couple months. That’s pretty much all she needs to know, except that we have fire drills each day where we set the kitchen on fire and evacuate the school.

My Chapel Yesterday

This is about my chapel yesterday. Yesterday my school had a guest speaker over for chapel, most of us call her Mrs. Trisha. She gave us candy for just being awesome people, and she kept on hitting me. I usually don’t get picked for audience participation. She gave out handfuls of candy at the end and they were very good. She was a very nice guest, and she was okay with people not always having to give a correct answer to every question.

My Day with my Little Brother Scott

This is about my day with my little brother Scott yesterday. Yesterday I stayed home to do my work so I could watch my little brother Scott because he might have been sick, we had a good time. He was watching Octonauts, Mickey Mouse, and Veggietales nonstop. We played a bunch of different games with each other and he liked to play with my fedora. When he saw some people headbutt on television then say, “ow” he touched his head to my stomach and said, “ow” over and over; it was very cute. One of my favorite parts of the day was when he fell asleep at 2 o’clock, giving me the rest of the day to relax.
