Turkey Day! (Thanksgiving!)

Ok,  first I go to North Carolina to visit my brother at his boarding school.  We have turkey for lunch and then watch a play called,  A Mid-Summers Nights Dream, by Shakespear.  My brother acted as a Moth Fairy.  After, my step mom, me and my dad go to a hotel called The Celo Inn.  The next morning we go down and eat a wonderful breakfast.  After, we go down to pick up my brother at his boarding home.  Then, we are back on the road.  We arrive at my step-great-aunt's house and are staying till wed.day.  Then  we will go to Virginia and have Thanksgiving there.  When Thanksgiving is over I will fill in what we will do in West Virginia.  HAVE A WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!!!!!

PS.  I didn't draw that.
PSS.  Go on google and search "turkey".
PSSS.  Hope you find the right turkey.

What A Wonderful Day

Isn't it such a wonderful day!  SOOOO  SUNNY!!!!

Writing

I Love Writing!  I write in a journal every day.  Well, almost every day.  I think it's great that I have a habit of wanting to write.  Some kids just sit inside all day and play video games, computer games ect.
I love writing because you can let all you wonderful ideas out.  Same with drawing.  If we didn't have paper and a pencil we wouldn't be able to make blue print's for buildings!  Well, got to go!  Have some homework that needs to be done!

After School

In my after school Eco Tech School,  we are trying to help these kids in La Oraya, Peru.  ETS has it's own blog.  Please visit,  www.ecotechschool.org  .

Math Unit 1

Math unit 1 was really good.  It was  great learning about square numbers.  The summer sort-of deleted all my memory about arrays in 4th grade so it was a great opportunity on remembering everything tricky I learned in 4th grade.  I hope that unit 2 will be as mind challenging as unit 1.

Where The Mountain Meets The Moon

In my class we are reading Where The Mountain Meets The Moon by Grace Lin.  We have stopped were Minlee has made friends with Dragon.  And the parents are getting ready to hear the goldfish man's story.  I think the parents are in for a treat,  I mean this guy might of told the goldfish the way to Endless Mountain!  And no body even knows were it is!  I think the gold fish man is the Old Man Of The Moon.  Because the Old Man lives on Never Ending Mountain.  These are my thoughts so far.

North Carolina (Summer, All Over Again)

Also, towards the end of the summer I went to North Carolina.  My best friend Stella, came with for 3 or so days before heading to Ohio.  During my time there I went clamming and got these huge clams about the size of my hand!  I also went kayaking ( with my dads help :) ) .  My grandparents own this little speed boat and had an awesome time getting splashed in the face with water.  I had a wonderful time with family and I  hope you had as much of a blast as I did in the summer. :)

Iceland In The Summer

In June I left to go to the plane to Iceland ALONE.  Usually I go with my brother but now I'm going ALONE!!!  ISN'T THAT CRAZY!!!  I'm on the plane talking to the person next to me and watching my personal TV for 5 HOURS!!!  When the plane lands I practically jump out of my seat.  Then I go through security blah, blah, blah.  I walk through a long hallway and open two huge doors.  "MOOOM!!!" I yell, racing over to her.  While there I went camping, swimming, cousin's house, family and Water falls.  HUGE  WATER FALLS!!!  (You might want to know I (heart) LOVE WATER FALLS!!!!)

Me

Hi!  My name's Solva!  I have a very strange background.  I was born in North Carolina, flew to Iceland at 3 months to live with my family and now I've ended up in brooklyn.  This blog will be about almost every thing that happens to me and my life of an Icelander in NYC! :)
