My Mountain Project

Last week i had to make a model of a mountain for my Social Studies project..... My brother told me about paper machete and my mom decided to use paper machete as my mountain.


It took about a week to completely finish my project. The first 4 days were putting paper machete and drying it. The last 3 days were researching for my paragraph, painting, and touching up.


The teacher asked for a short well typed paragraph explaning what the model was so mom decide to make a 400 word paragraph..........


In the end one of the hardest part was just transporting the thing to school.

We had to go no faster then 50km because mom was worried about damaging the model that I had "put so much effort in to" so we had to wake up really early.


Below is a picture of my finished model

Running

It's funny.
The more you do it the less you hurt.
But, at that time it doesnt seem so.

Running.
Running really hurts.

I had my 4 lap run yesterday ( almost a mile ) and im going to run my mile on friday. My four lap time was 6 minutes and 35 seconds so im aiming for a 8 - 9 minute mile time. My previous mile run time was about 10 minutes........

Im just hoping ill do well on my mile run.
