Guanajouato (day 30)

Guanajuato is a university mountain town in Mexico. There are barely any tourists here. This is mostly because there is no beach nearby and the whole town is on a mountain. The streets twist and turn randomly, and it's easy to lose your way. The town is very nice. All the buildings are painted bright colors. Right now, I'm sitting over the city, listening to the sounds of the city. There are barking dogs, birds, and an occasional rooster. The church bells will clang wildly at the hour. This was the first time I have woken up to a rooster. Overall, I am loving the city with it's  crazy environment, and fun people.

Languages (day 29)

I was thinking about all of the different world languages and what might happen with them in the future. This is what I thought would happen.

China becomes allies with the US and drops mandarin
Quickly after, all symbolic languages are dropped for easier typing use (Japanese, Korean, Arabic)
Following this, the dominant languages become Spanish and English
Spanish is the street language and English is the scholars language (it's already used for math)
All other languages become obsolete and are spoken only by natives along with Spanish/English
An alien threat causes all nations to be unified under one language
This language is english (because of the US's military power)
We join a galactic society and the system is renewed

First Impressions (day 28)

Today I landed in Queretaro Mexico. This is a mountain town in central Mexico. As I landed, I immediately tried to place it to another place. It has whether and environment like LA, it's streets are assembled like Spain, and the food style is like China (lots of street food). We also went out to have some tacos. The mole here is amazing, and so are the tacos. I also had one strange type of taco. It's called "Chapulines". These are pickled grasshoppers, and they taste exactly like what they sound like. A bunch of dill pickles wrapped in a tortilla. Overall, my first impression is that the place is very unique and unlike anywhere else I have been.

Some Chapulines

If video games were real (day 27)

I have made a list of all the differences if we lived in a video game

-All your stats would be known
-You could get experience points
-You could level up by getting experience
-You could change how you look whenever you want to
-You could get achievements for doing cool things
-You could re spawn indefinitely
-It would be possible to be the best at life
-There would be no physical limits on inventions
-You could exist in any time you want
-You could just change "disks" if you were angry or bored
-Suicide would be impossible (you would just re spawn at the last checkpoint)
-World peace could exist (everyone could live in their own world with only NPCs)

My Computer's Fan is Broken (day 26)

My computer's fan broke. Now I can't use it for anything without the computer overheating, and shutting down. So now, I have to use our family computer, which is from 2001 or something, and my parents use it all the time, so I can't really play games on it, and whenever I am doing homework, I have to sit almost in the kitchen (which is really loud) and try to work. All we have to do to fix the fan is buy like a $4 fan and screw it in, but we can't because we haven't bought a fan yet. So for now, I am left using my family's computer.

Ender's Shadow(day 25)

This book is a retake on the book Ender's Game, but instead focusing on the character Bean. This makes the story much more interesting by learning about a character that was never really described. It makes me like Bean more than Ender as characters.

Overall, I really liked this book. It made me excited about a book I already read. I would recomend this book for anyone in AS that liked Ender's Game.

A poem (day 24)

Smile!

The clown is laughing
No one else is

The camera flashes
No one moves

Smile
No one smiles
