8. Journal Entries

1. Journal Entry by "Sean Michaels"; a student, 16 years:

Today I got up early, because I went running before our family breakfast. That was very good to run in the morning, because it`s not to early and it always blows unnecessary thoughts away. That helps me to be better in school, because I`m able to get more information and to remember those information. Furthermore I feel more comfortable and I`m less tired. Okay our family breakfast was like every day. We had a good time and discussed the plans for the week.
In school I had quiet a few "fun" classes and a few advanced classes. I think my Spanish class is probably the most challenging one. My other clases are PE, Math, Dance, English, Sports Team practise, Photography and Design. My schoolday was pretty normal and many classes were fun.
After school I went to the sport team practised. Today we worked out really hard to get in shape, but it was fun though, because many friends of mine are on the team, too.
When I got home I were really tired. First I finished my homework and afterwards I took a nap. I woke up right before dinner. All my brothers and sisters and my mum and dad were eating together. I really like that, because then you can always talk about your day and that`s really enjoyable. I`m always happy to see my family again after a hard day! After dinner I met some friends and we talked and hang out. In the late evenings I came back home and now I´m writing this essay about my normal daylife.

Today was a special day! It was the day of Indepence of "Candyland". Nearly nobody had to go to work or school. All my kids stayed at home and my husband, too. We drove to the capital and we enjoyed all those flags and the nice mood, everybody was in. Actually I do really like our flag with our representive lion! It`s really cool. Anyways, we spent our day at the capital and we went as a family to a huge pool. That is kind of a tradition from our family to go to the pool on "Independence Day". Usually it`s really hot, because it`s in the summer. Today we had wonderful weather and there were about 100 degrees. My kids really enjoyed swimming and having a fun time. When we came back home we went to a nice restaurant for having dinner. At dinner we teached our children about the "Independence Day". Then we got home and everybody fell asleep, because we were very tired of the day.

§. Journal Entry by Robert Sparks; worker and dad, 37 years

Today is sunday. We decided that we`ll only have the dinner in the evening together and the rest of the day we can do whatever we want. My kids chose to hang out with their friends. My wife and I enjoyed the nice and quiet time without the kids. Actually the sunday is my lazy day. I used to go running in the mornings but the rest of the day I am lazy. Many people also go to church, but I don`t really like going to church, because I think that I don´t need to go to a certain building to be close to the "Father". That`s fine for me and all the others. In the evening after family dinner we invited some friends to watch the newest movie we have. I really enjoyed that and when everybody left, I went to bed early. I usually go early to bed on sundays, because then I`ll have mor power for the next working week.
