    I wish that my Dad was an Egyptologist, because then I would have him take me with him as his apprentice. I would like to learn the fantasy culture of the Egyptians. It would be fun.

    I started reading Freaky Friday by Mary Rodgers. I am glad that I am not the main character Annabel in the book because she had a fight with her Mom about freedom so she wanted to be her Mom because that way she could do whatever she wants instead of being told what to do all the time. One day she really woke up as her mother. The day started out really weird for her father and her because Annabel woke up and went into her mother's bathroom to see how she looks like. Then, she looked through her mother's make-up and put some on. After, she went outside the bathroom and punched her dad's shoulder to wake him up and then she asked him how she looks. Her dad was surprised because Annabel's mother never puts on make-up before breakfast and she never asks him how she looks.

      I guess that's why sharks eat so much... they need all that energy to keep swimming.

    I read Ivy and Bean Doomed to Dance by Annie Barrows. I would not want to be Ivy and Bean because they are trying to get sick so they do not have to dance on the stage as squids. When they were walking to school, Ivy and Bean touched a few kids that were sick. Ivy touched a girl with a big rash and Bean let a boy with the cold sneeze on her. I think they should have told the teacher and asked if they could be something else in their dance recital instead of getting sick.
