I’m Just a Bill
My Dream Job
At one point of life everyone has to make a decision. They will have to follow their dreams to get the right job. My future will probably end up being an engineer.
I will make new car parts for all the customers I get. The parts are going to help so that when your car runs out of gas your battery will give your car fuel. Another part would stop all the smoke coming out of your car and polluting the air. Speaking of pollution, one part I know I’ll make is instead of fuel your car would run on air pollution. I know it will take some learning, but I am determined to make a new car part. Next I would fix all the parts of cars I know about. I would get to go underneath bunches of cars to examine them. Once I knew how to fix cars in the back of my head, I could help my family when they are in need. My family would also get discounts at the dealership.
Even if my future doesn’t end up being an engineer, it is most likely to happen.
Texas Bluebonnet
This year we had to research a wildflower in Texas. Mine is the Texas Bluebonnet. Its scientific name is Lupinus texensis and its classification isFabaceae.It grows in all regions of Texas and is the state flower. It blooms in the spring and grows 1-2 feet tall. It needs to be in full sun and well drained soil. I found the info at Aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu.

Right now they are in the middle of winter. This is my favorite part. Lissete is pregnet with a baby. Papa is fetching for Frau Kaufmann.

Hot-Air Balloon
Today my class got to learn about how hot air rises with ReMax Realty. They brought their hot-air balloon to our school. The first thing I learned is that hot air particles spread out when they get hotter. This causes the balloon to fly. Second I learned that a hot-air balloon was the first aircraft known to man. It was created in the 1700s and was made in France. In a few years they came to America and was wittnessed by George Washington in Phillidelfia. Next I learned that there are different types of hot-air balloons such as the helium balloon and the hot-air balloon. After that I learned that hot-air balloons have a flap which enables them to land. Finally I learned that to inflate a hot-air balloon they turn it on its side and fill it two-thirds with cold air and one-third with warm air. After today I learned stuff I never knew before.

Water Conservation
Here are some ways to save water at home easily. Tell your friends to save water with you. Also do it at school, work, and your grandparents’ house.
First try to take shorter showers each day. Use cooler water, but not freezing water when showering. Make sure it only takes you five minutes instead of ten minutes because about thirty gallons of water is wasted showering already. If you drink out of a plastic bottle try to refill it until the plastic breaks. Try not to drink out of a plastic bottles anyways because it takes twenty-four gallons of water to make one pound of plastic! Always finish the water before you throw it away. Finally put a bucket outside to catch rain water to drink. You can also use the rain water to water plants. When you’re done drinking the rain water, put it in the frige to drink later. You can also give it to your pets, wash your mom’s car, or water the lawn. If you do water the lawn, do it at sunrise or sunset.
If you do all of these things, you will save gallons of water everyday. You will be a savior all around the world.
