Noon: We started with lunch at a Chinese Buffet in Steinway. During weekends from 1- 4 pm and at Noon, the prices are very cheap. From 4 - 9 pm, the prices are higher. I sat down and quickly stood up to get my food. I picked up shrimp dumplings, sticky rice, steam buns, shrimp balls, sushi and frog legs. Everything was good. (Photo: New Grand Buffet Restaurant)


1 pm:  We walked from Steinway to Forever 21 to buy clothes because it was Black Friday. Things were on sale at very cheap prices. The mall was very crowded and their were many folks walking around looking for stuff to buy. Lucky for me, I brought a nice warm sweaterhen found my Aunt and Uncle and sat down for a chat. It was very boring. Linda and I wanted to leave, but we couldn't, because it would be disrespectful.

My classmates Jackie and Keyur asked a man near the purple flowers in the Korean Gardens if we could take a picture of him.

"Hello sir!" " Do you mind if we take a picture of you with the flowers?"

We are very polite children. We also respect our elders. My group also didn't get straight to the point we greeted him unlike other groups.

Another time, when the group had asked a lady if we could take a picture of her and she started waving her knife meaning no, Keyur said, "Some people old people over react over nothing."

Sometimes some people do overreact. It opens my eyes because this quote is saying that old people do overreact when there is nothing big to overreact to. It's basically that they make a deal of nothing. Now keeping this in mind, my reader does agree with me because this experience has happened to her before.

I recently read pages 74-94 in The Color of Water and I enjoyed the book. It was really interesting to me. I learned a lot of things reading the last previous pages.

Two versions of Meadow Lake

These images were taken at the same time and place, with different exposures. This is early in my 3.5 mile run to school each morning.

Same Old, Same Old.

I look to the right, the same old house.
I look to the left, the same old bridge.
I look up, the same old  bird.
I look down, the same old gum stuck to the ground.
Life, have you noticed.
Is BORING!
Everything is the same, nothing new.
Maybe a new building for new people.
That does not count.
Life here is old.
I breath,and I taste the foul air.
I sniff, the horrible smell.
I see, the same old filth, and disturbing graffiti.
I hear, the same old foul language in the street.
I feel, the same damp air from the sewer system on a hot summer day, anywhere in NY.
Life in Old New York Is Old And Boring.

Living in Queens for sixteen years provides nothing interesting to look at, to do, or to experience and I bored to death with it.

Confusion of the World

I walk home, and what do I see?
Tax, lust, blood, and lies. 
The government, is hungry. Hungry for our money.
I don't understand why, they lie through there teeth.
