The Layers of the Earth

In science I had to do an assignment on the layers of the earth. I thought to myself  "I am very good at doing presentations with Window's Movie Maker" so I put together a slide show presentation and I hope you like it.

An Everyday Object

 I am in a photography class. My assignment was to take an every day object and think about the many ways I could photograph it. I could put it in places where it would not likely be found or take pictures from different angles. I thought to myself, "What is an object that I use everyday? A hairbrush! Almost everybody uses a hairbrush." I decided that I would put the hairbrush in places where I would not usually find one. I put my pink, silver plastic hairbrush in a plant, standing up on my bed and in a bubble bath. I also took close up pictures of it.

Pinhole Photography

What is pinhole photography?

Pinhole photography is the use of a small dark chamber with one small hole in it. Among other things, you can use a Pringles Can, a green pepper or a shoe box! How does a pinhole camera work? The light reflects off of the object and goes through the pinhole and is projected onto a screen and images look upside down. It is unique because you are using the earliest form of photography. Pinhole cameras have been used for looking at eclipes of the sun.

I made a pinhole camera out of a Pringles Can.

Here is the link to the instructions I used: http://www.exploratorium.edu/science_explorer/pringles_pinhole.html

Make-Up Creativity Design Project

The inspiration for my make up creativity design was my grandmother. She likes to do puzzles in the summer when I visit her. One time she bought a puzzle of all four seasons. I liked the idea of a puzzle face girl for my make up creativity design. But just a puzzle face girl was not enough. So, I remembered the puzzle my grandmother bought and decided to go for the four seasons idea. My design is a girl’s face with puzzle pieces on her face representing all four seasons. I chose the title, “The Seasons of Life” because in life things change.

Harry Potter

Harry Potter is a series of seven books written by a woman named J. K. Rowling. Harry Potter is a boy who is an orphan and a wizard. He lives with his aunt and uncle who are terrible to him. He also has a really mean cousin who bullies him a lot. Then, he goes to a magical school for wizards and witches called Hogwarts and makes friends and has many adventures.

I read the first book, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone,  this summer and just watched the movie. I am reading the second Harry Potter book. It is called, Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets.Every time I finish a book in the series I will watch the movie afterward.

When I am on Whidbey Island, I like to read while laying in the hammock at my grandma's summer house.

 It is fun to curl up with good book.

I like to read in bed when I just wake up in the morning.

A Night at Benihana's

I went to Benihana's with my father, my mother, my two older brothers and my parents' friends from Spain. There were 7 people in all and we had a fabulous dinner. I ordered rice with tofu and vegetables. The  chef made the rice into a beautiful heart.

Benihana's puts gourmet food on your plate and offers great entertainment.

My Girl Scout Media Journey Video
