The NVSF 5th Science Fair

       On Thursday, we had a science fair! And it wasn't just any science fair, it was a virtual one! It was called NVSF 5th, or NESA Virtual Science Fair 5th. Our science project was BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP. Not telling you, because you might copy our project for other science fairs! So yeah, for the whole morning (8:30 AM - 12:00 PM), people visited us. The first half was the judging part. We had 2 judges ask us questions, period. Not telling who judged us! That part was from 8:30 AM 'til 10:05 AM. Then we had our snacks and our recess until  10:35 AM. After that, some classes came and parents came to visit until 12:00 PM. I mostly did the talking, because my group mates wandered around to see other people's science projects. And so yeah, that's basically it for now.

Reading Week at my School

       This week, we had Reading Week! It was so fun, it felt like the best reading week in my life! So, on Sunday, it was Hat Day, and we get to wear crazy hats! I wore a sort-of-kind-of-like-a cowboy hat. Haha, I don't know if it even makes sense! 
       Then on Monday, it was twin day! Well, not exactly. You don't have to be TWINS. You can be triplets or quadruplets or quintuplets or... I don't know! Basically, you just plan with a friend or two or more to wear the same clothes. I was twins with my best friend, Michelle! We wore a red shirt, a white cardigan, black leggings, a white hair clip, and a green hair tie around our wrist! We were also the same nationality, so what a coincidence! Many people told us we really looked like twins!
       Tuesday was Tie Day, so we wore our dad's ties! Some people didn't wear a real tie, they just made it with paper. I wore a blue and red striped tie, with my matching blue outfit! 
       Wednesday was Pajama Day! I know some people spell pajama differently, but this is how I spell it. I wore the same pajamas I wore to the Girl Scouts sleepover, and you can see what I wore on my other blog post by scrolling down.
       Thursday was Book Character Day, but the fifth graders didn't participate. I'm in fifth grade, so including me. We had a science fair on that day, but I'll tell you that in another blog post. But if I were to participate, I would be Junie B., first grader. I loved to reading her books when I was in first grade. 
       Bonus News! We had a story-writing contest about a month ago, and I won an award on Thursday for writing the best story! Well, probably only in my class, but I won an award! It was the second book of Percy Jackson, and it had my name inside it! It was the best award I ever got. If you like my blog posts, then stay tuned in "cindalesdailyblog.blogspot.com" for more!

What Happened at the Girl Scouts Sleepover!

       Yesterday (and this morning) was A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!! I had so much fun at the sleepover. Oh, of course I'll tell you about the sleepover. 
       So all of us met in a classroom at our school. We talked about all the fun games we would play and all. We planned that we would play some running games (like tag)at our school hardcourt before we could freshen up and eat dinner. 
       The first game we played outside was Rattlesnake Tag. The rules were: all of us needed to hold hands together. The person in the front tries to tag the person at the end. But if you let go of each others hands, you're out. Some people let go, but they didn't even GO out. Cheaters... but whateves. 
       The second game we played outside was Over and Under Basketball Relay.
The rules were: we all get divided into two teams (we were divided with colors, red team and blue team). Each team gets one ball. The person in front gives the ball to the next person over their head, and the person who got the ball from the first person gives it to the person behind them through their legs, or under. We keep repeating it over and over until the last person gets the ball. Once the last person gets the ball, they have to dribble around the pole in front of them and go back to the front of the line. The goal is to get the first person in the line to be first again. Blue team won (which was my team) but the other people cheated. So I would give the points to the red team, but they refuse. So blue team won.
       Whew, that was very long! Well anyways, the last game we played was Cat and Mouse Tag. The rules were: one person gets to be the Cat. The rest get in groups of 3, then we line up behind each other. Then, one person gets to be Mouse. The obvious rule is that the cat should tag the mouse. But only one thing: if the mouse gets into any random line (either their original line or anyone else's), the cat can't tag the mouse anymore. So since the mouse joined that line, the first person in the front of the line will be the mouse, and the cat tries to catch the mouse. When the moue gets tagged, then the cat becomes the mouse and the mouse becomes the cat. Since I became mouse only ONCE, I never got to be the cat.
       After that, we washed our faces in the bathroom. Then, we went back to get our stuff and put it in the gym. That's the place where we will sleep. We'll sleep on the gym mats. Then, we went to the cafeteria/canteen to eat dinner. There was a LOT of pizza there, but I only ate 2 slices. What I ate there was 2 slices o'pizza, 5 tiny chocolate brownies, some pasta, a slice of blueberry cheesecake, and a small chocolate muffin. There was no other main dish other than pasta. 
       When we finished our dinner, we planned some things for a scavenger hunt! Red team plans for blue, blue team plans for red. When the red team was placing their clues in the dark, we were writing some creepy things on the whiteboard. When red team came back, we went to place our clues in the dark, too! When WE came back, they ERASED our stuff! Hmmph, unfair! But whateves.
        After planning and placing our objects for the scavenger hunt, we had a nail polish game If any boys are reading this, I know it's weird for you. Just skip this paragraph if you want. The rules were: we would sit in a circle and number ourselves from 1-20. The 1st person who goes first picks a nail polish color, spins it, and whoever the gets pointed at by the nail polish, the person who spun it paints their nail, even if it points to the person who spun the nail polish. I never spun it because we didn't have enough time for the mo-- wait a minute! I never told you yet! 
       After a few minutes of the nail polish game, we went to the auditorium to watch a movie! We didn;t know exactly which movie it was until we all arrived there. Some of you may have seen it, and some of you may have not. It was... The Good Dinosaur! I won't spoil it for you, but I can tell you this: it's all about family. We finished the movie at 10:40 PM. 
       When we were done cleaning up and getting ready to sleep, it took me like 30 minutes to clean up. There were a lot of girls in the bathroom, so I had to wait until there were few people. I wore this pajama shirt that said "Dream Night and Day". And the pajama pants was grey, and it had black and purple stars on it. 
       Some of us were painting our own nails (not playing by the rules of the game, just well, DOING it). I painted my nails silver, but it turned out really UGLY! Well, only my left hand looks ugly, not my right. I painted my toe nails pink (with the help of one scout). I painted my left foot, while the other scout painted my right foot. And yeah, that's it for the nail polish thingy.
       I made my bed ready to sleep on and then the lights went out. I talked to my friends who're sleeping beside me. I mostly to to this girl named Malak. She was really fun to talk to. Before 1 AM hit, my eyes just automatically closed and all I could see was black.
       When I woke up at 7 AM (ish), we all brushed our teeth and packed up all our stuff into our bags and put it in the hallway near our school library. Then, we went to the cafeteria/canteen to eat some breakfast. I ate some corn flakes mixed with Coco Pops (of course as a cereal), a slice of blueberry cheescake (again), 1 a slice of pizza, and a small chocolate muffin. I also had some multi fruit juice. It was a very yummy breakfast! 
       Then, guess what happens next.............................................................
Scavenger Hunt! I told you that we prepared it so we could do the scavenger hunt for the next morning. The scavenger hunt for us was REALLY HARD! But we found most of the clues anyways, so yeah.
       When it was 8:30 AM, we all got our bags and went home. That's almost EVERY SINGLE DETAIL of what I did in the sleepover. So yeah, see you in my next blog post! If you like my posts, then stay tuned in "cindalesdailyblog.blogspot.com"

Girl Scouts Sleepover!

       I think I haven't told you about it yet, but I'm a Girl Scout! We do so many interesting things whenever we have a Girl Scout meeting. So far, we will have a sleepover next week on March 10! It's going to be really exciting! 
       Our Girl Scout instructor gave our parents the permission slip so we can attend the sleepover. Good thing my parents agreed! The permission slip was actually pretty cool. It had a small checklist of what to bring, and all the other basic information (like when we will eat dinner, e.t.c). Since our dinner will be a potluck dinner, I'm gonna bring some pizza, 'cause who doesn't like pizza? 
       So that's basically it. If you like my blog posts, then stay tuned in"cindalesdailyblog.blogspot.com"

Interesting Stuff From Last Week and This Week

       It's been a while since I had made a post in this blog, but here I am writing one blog post now! Well, what I will write about is about some interesting things that happened last week and this week. 
       First of all, me and my friend Michelle is planning a sleepover! We have NEVER been to a sleepover, so it's going to be pretty exciting (I think). We planned out everything that we will do during the sleepover. I might type a blog post about our sleepover. That's basically it about that.
       Second of all, we had a four day weekend last week! Since I go to school in Yanbu, the weekends are on Fridays and Saturdays. So, my school that I attend had no school on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! It was a bit boring to me, the four-day weekend, but not too boring.
       Third of all, I made a Roblox account! If you don't know what Roblox is, you better check it out! Yes, it is for kids, but it has really cool games! My favorite games are Escape the iPhone Obby!, Speed Run 4, and Hide and Seek Extreme. All thanks to Pieperson50, Vurse, and Tim7775. 
       Last thing: I'm sick! I have a small cold, a lower back pain, and a little cough. I was absent on Monday and Thursday last week, so I only had 2 days of school last week! If you don't get why I only had 2 days of school last week, it's because none of us had school on Sunday, I was absent on Monday, went to school on Tuesday and Wednesday, but was absent on Thursday. Yes, I'm lucky, but it was boring. I had nothing to do but rest.
       Make a blog post ASAP! (as soon as possible). If you like my blog posts, then stay tuned at "cindalesdailyblog.blogspot.com"

Valentine's Day Dinner

       Happy Valentine's Day! If you don't celebrate that holiday, forget I said it. Anyways, my dad treated us to go to Fuddruckers. The food was soo yummy! It's not my first time eating there, but the food I ordered was probably the best meal I ever ate there. 
       I ordered a Fish Fillet Meal (I'm not sure if that's what it's called, but something related to that). I also took a small veggie salad. In my salad, I only had pickles, lettuce, and some creamed potatoes. And so we ate there. It was the BEST meal I have ever eaten at Fuddruckers. 
       That's pretty much it for now. I will type a blog post soon. If you like my blog posts, stay tuned at "cindalesdailyblog.blogspot.com".
       
Have you ever eaten at Fuddruckers? If yes, what is YOUR favorite meal at Fuddruckers?

February 12, 2016 Blog: 15-Minute Write

       Hello again, I will tell you about the interesting things about today. Same thing as before: start from the morning 'til the end.
       Not much happened in the morning really. In the morning, I woke up at 7:30 AM. I was the last one to wake up in my family. So, I looked at posts in Facebook and went downstairs to play with Play-Doh with my little sister. I just started playing with play-doh yesterday. The play-doh set that I have is the one where you can make ice creams and sundaes and all that. It's pretty interesting to me. I got it for Christmas, but I never really used it that much. That's pretty much all that happened in the morning. 
       At around 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM, my dad and I went to the Sports Park again to walk. I tracked how many steps would it take to walk 2.5 kilometers by using my S Health (yes, I own a Samsung phone), and I got 3,340+ steps! I don't really remember the EXACT number of steps I walked, so I just estimated the number of steps my dad and I walked. And again, I crossed the finish line before my dad did!
       That's pretty much the interesting things that happened to me today. If you are interested in my blogs, stay tuned in this site: "cindalesdailyblog.blogspot.com".

My Short Autoiography

If you don't know me yet, I'll tell you some things about myself. Let's get started!
      My name is Cindale, and I am 11 years old. I am the second child in my family. I am from the Philippines, but I live in Yanbu, Saudi Arabia. I'm currently in 5th Grade, and I attend this school called "Yanbu International School" or "YIS". Now that the basic things are told, I will tell you a few more things about myself.
       The colors of the rainbow are my favorite colors. I have 2 sisters, and no brothers. My favorite book is "Maniac Magee" by Jerry Spinelli. I like Star Wars movies, especially the new movie, "Star Wars: The Force Awakens". It's just really cool, with lightsabers, jets, and a lot of other stuff. My favorite hobbies are baking, singing, and swimming. I don't really know how to bake, but I love to help my mom bake cakes, cookies, or cupcakes. I seriously LOVE to sing a lot. Plus, my voice is pretty good (hey, I'm no trying to brag here. Just saying). I usually swim in the Philippines, but I sometimes swim in Yanbu, too.
       My favorite holidays are Christmas, New Years Eve, and my birthday. Well, my birthday isn't really a holiday, but in my book, it is. I love to play instruments such as:

  • Piano
  • Recorder
  • Ukulele
  • Drums
In my spare time, I read books, play with my little sister, chat with my friends in Google Hangouts or Facebook Messenger, or clean my room. I sometimes watch movies, too.
       Well, that's basically the main things about me. If you want me to add some more things about me, comment down below and I will make another post about it when I DO have comments. 

My First Blog

       Hello, I am just going to tell you about some interesting stuff about what happened today. Well, it's not much, but it's just right for my very first blog.
       Let me start at the beginning of the day. At around 8:00 AM through 10:20 AM, we had a brownout at our house. I have no idea if other houses had a brownout, too. My little sister and I played a LOT together in our living room while the brownout was ongoing. I pretended to play some songs with my dad's guitar (pretended because I don't know how to play a guitar yet), played with Play-Doh, and I finished reading this book called "Maniac Magee" by Jerry Spinelli. You guys HAVE TO read that book, it's really good (in my opinion). I don't want to spoil the book for you, so instead, just read some reviews of the book.
       The other thing is that I watched a movie called "Holes". It was originated from the book "Holes" by Louis Sachar. I don't wanna spoil the movie for you either, so you guys should watch it, too. I read the book first, that's one important thing you should know about this part of the blog.
       Last thing I will tell you is my Sport Park walking experience. Well apparently, it's not my first time in there, but it's one of the best experiences in the park. I walked with my dad for 2.5 kilometers, and we met our really-close-family-friend of ours. My parents knew them before I was even born! So yeah, I listened to music while walking, rested when we were near to the end, took a few pictures of us at the park bench and walked all the way to the end. I was the first in my family to reach the end! It was the GREATEST experience in that park. If you were there, you'd understand.
       So yeah, that's basically the interesting things during my day. If you are interested in my blogs, stay tuned in "cindalesdailyblog.blogspot.com"
