Mae Jemison was born in Decatur, Alabama, in 1956.

In 1992 Mae Jemison became the first African-American women to be an astronaut.

Mae’s trip into space took place in 1992 aborad the space shuttle Endeavour.

Mae later moved to Chicago, Illinois.

Mae’s father was a maintenance worker and her mother was a teacher.

When Mae was a young girl she became interested in science and the world around her.

Mae loved to watch the television show Star Trek.

On that particular show, the star ship’s Communications Officer was a African-American women named  Lieutenant Uhura.

There were no African-American female astronauts in the 1960’s

Mae was very inspired by Lieutenant Uhura-even if she was just a fictional character.

Mae went to high school in Chicago.

Mae excelled in her studies, and when she was 16 she became a college student at Standford University in California.

Mae also went to a medical school called Cornell University in New York.

When Mae’s time in the Peace Corps was over, she returned to the United States to work as a doctor.

Mae also started taking additional courses in engineering.

A couple years later Mae Jemison started to imagine using her skills to take her to outer space.

For a lot of people, becoming a doctor and an astronaut would fulfill all their dreams.

          There was a big math quiz,

That could only be passed by a wiz.

It had multiplication,

It had division.

The subtraction was hard,

That you had to practice on a 15,000 page card.

You’re hands would hurt from all that work,

you would have to stop your job of being a clerk.

When you’ve lost you’re job,

All you can think is that you’re an unbeliveable glob.

THIS IS THE END OF THE MATH QUIZ!

          I am going to write about two magnificent stories I read. I will compare and contrast , ”Meet Kit” by Valerie Tripp and “Meet Rebecca” by Jacqueline Debar Greene.

There are some similarities in these two awesome stories . Both stories are about American Girls. The main character in both stories have a big imagination. For example in ”Meet Kit” , Kit wants to become a great journalist . In ”Meet Rebecca” Rebecca wants to become a great actor.Both stories have girls with a great imagination. In ”Meet Kit” She imagines to become a journalist and in ”Meet Rebecca” she imagines to be a actor.

          Although both stories have a lot on common , there are specific differences. First of all , both main characters and their families have troubles with their money. In” Meet Kit ”her dad lost his job during the great depression so her family couldn’t aford anything but their house. In ” Meet Rebecca” her family has enough money to pay for a lot of things except for sending Rebecca’s sick cousins on a boat from Russia to New York.

          In conclusion , both stories were terrific to read.I engoyed  reading about the girls and their time periods. My favorite was ”Meet Rebecca” because she seems more open to trying new things and how she loves to celebrate her Jewish religion.

Lake Tahoe is one of the biggest lakes I’ve ever seen. Lake Tahoe has deep shiny water. In Lake Tahoe I saw a myriad of dark green pine trees.They smelled sweet and juicy. Lake Tahoe was really hot over the summer. At Lake Tahoe there were small beaches that did not have a lot of sand, but had a lot of smooth boulders.

At Lake Tahoe there was a lot of winding bike trails. Me and my family went bike riding on the trails.The sunset was beautiful as we watched it over the shadowy mountains. I went swimming in the freezing cold lake. On the lake,  I also went kayaking. I had a blast. I went swimming in the hotel pool. It took a long time to get used to the icy water.

One night we went to go see some of my mom’s friends. On the way there I felt like I was leaving Late Tahoe’s  beautiful view. Once we got far over the mountains I saw a bear in a tree.

When we went out to eat, we ate food we have here in San Diego (like Subway). A lot of the signs that me and my mom saw said, “deer and bear crossing” some even said,”duck crossing”. At Lake Tahoe we rented a ski boat on a dock. I got to drive it but I drove it very slow. When we went out on the lake my dad drove very fast. I got really scared in the beginning.

At the hotel room, the window had a beautiful view of the golf course, but before it there was a road. After I left Lake Tahoe my mom’s friends told us that there was a mountain lion by our hotel we stayed in. At the airport there were a lot of people gambling. At the hotel in Lake Tahoe I went night swimming. I felt the pool water but it was too cold. So  since my dad was in the jacuzzi I went in to.In the hotel bathroom the bathtub was also like a jacuzzi because it had jets.When my mom told me to take a bath,she tried the jets on me. The sad thing was that happened was when my dad bought ice cream but we were leaving so my dad had to leave it in the hotel freezer.

On another bike ride my mom noticed that there was a little Old Town we looked in many old factories,schools,and homes.Lake Tahoe is full of wonders to explore.

My favorite week that I remember was in May 2012. Me, my mom and dad went to many different places in Mexico. I loved that the cruise ship was really fancy. I ate15 ice cream cones but they were little. We went swimming in the pools,  the water was warm. In Cabo San Lucas we went on many different boat trips.

In Puerto Vallarta we met some of my dad’s friends at a time share. All the taxi cabs that we rode in had no seat belts. At the last dinner on the cruise the workers played some music. We had a small rock-n-roll party.
