Sailing On Our Lake

On Friday the 4th, Ruma J went sailing on our lake. It was really fun as the instructor was funny and nice so he made it fun to learn. I was in the first group, the beginners group, we left in the morning so there wasn't as much wind. We then got asked about our names and if we were a fruit which fruit would you be. I thought that this was a weird question. When we finally got on the water it was really fun and exiting. Our instructor towed us out deeper in our lake so we could sail easier. My favorite part was doing all the fun challenges like the L'Oreal challenge wear we had to dip our hair in the water and then flip our hair and say "because I'm worth it". Next time  I would like to be on the lake for a full day.

Are You Feeling Lucky? Logo.

Recently we have been learning about money. Miss J gave everyone a banqer account. Banqer is a bank simulation that gives people the feeling of owning a back account. To earn money we all made companies that perform different tasks. My main company is called Are You Feeling Lucky? it is a lotto company that gives people the chance to win big! We had to make logo's for our companies, this is my logo. I chose this design because these two dice represent the two dice that are rolled to get the winning numbers. The blue stands for trust and loyalty so you can trust Are You Feeling Lucky? to perform fairly. Next time I would make it neater.
