Hello my name is Lorenzo, for my 20% project i am doing cooking. My goal was to make scrambled eggs and learn how to cut with a knife properly. I accomplished the goal but I kind of struggled when I first started cutting with the knife I cut to unevenly on a apple and when I was cutting the apple instead of cutting a bit towards the left in the middle I cut straight down the middle and that cut the core in half and I had to restart. With the scrambled eggs I didn’t really have a problem but I did have a problem cracking the egg open I got a bit of the shell in my eggs but it was still pretty good. Next week im going to learn how to make sunny side up eggs and im going to make toast but not in a toaster to make it more of a challenge. Thanks for reading see you next week!
Favorite Room
My favorite room in my house would be my bedroom. My bedroom is so comfortable with my cozy soft bed. I could also play video games from my bed because my bed is in-front of my setup, so i can play while being in my bed if i connect a controller. I also have a mini couch in my bedroom that i sometimes lay on. I also have a shoe rack for all of my basketball shoes and my school shoes. Also on my door i have a mini basketball hoop i can play on inside of my room. I have LED lights in my room too, to change the color of the room. This is why my room is the best room in my house.

Rad reading March
This month i read the book “Rebound” by Kwame Alexander. In this book there are two really good friends Skinny and Charlie, Skinny is really good at basketball but Charlie isn’t that good at basketball. One day skinny and Charlie were out with there friends and they decided to steal a package of bottles at a old lady’s house and once they stole the bottles they came home and Charlies mom found the bottles in his room and told Charlie to apologize to the old lady but when Charlie did the old lady forgave him but she said if he can dog sit the dog and Charlie said no but Charlies mom said yes so he had to but Charlie was scared of dogs but he overcame his fear and did it anyways. After Charlie was done dog sitting his mom made him stay at his grandmas house since the mom was still not happy. Once Charlie got to his grandparents house he met this girl that was really good at basketball and he decided to practice with her to get better at basketball, after Charlie trained to get better they played a 3v3 with other people and it was tie game and Charlies team had a finally shot and they gave it to Charlie and Charlie shot it and it was good Charlie won the game for them. After they got home his mom was there and she told Charlie its time to go back home, but Charlie didn’t want to go back home because he was finally having fun but his mom didn’t care and they went back home
I liked this book because of the story telling and the plot. Because at the start of the story Charlie wasn’t that good at basketball but he got better and proved a lot of people wrong.
My favorite character is Charlie because he didn’t give up playing basketball he just practiced and practiced until he got better. When get got better he wasn’t cocky. And he still tried to get better no matter what.
my favorite quote from the book is “This is a team sport. You can surround yourself with people who don’t play by the rules, or you can surround yourself with those who do. But if you choose wrong, don’t start complaining when the coach takes you out the game. You hear me?” “Pg 374” Because he’s helping the team out and playing with his teammates and he’s saying play fair and don’t try to cheat your way into winning and you can ether surround yourself with cheaters or people that play fair.
Dinner
There are so many people I would want to invite to my dinner, but these are my top three. I would want to invite LeBron James, LeBron James is a professional basketball player that I would want to invite because he is very classy, and I would just love to see him. The second and third person would be my Mom and Dad because they were always there for me and they would like to meet LeBron in person as well. So I would love to have dinner with them with LeBron James and my Mom and Dad. These are the Three people I would invite to dinner.
Dream Job
My dream job is becoming a NBA player. I would want to become an NBA player because I always played basketball growing up and I still do so I love the sport and I would love to play it professionally. And I would also love to play on my favorite team the “Lakers.” Also NBA players get payed a lot so I would get good money working/ playing for my dream Job. I would also want to be LeBron James one of my favorite players of all time. I would also get to travel a lot from away games. I would also want to try different foods once we travel. This is why I would become a NBA player.
Invisible for 24 hours
One day I woke up invisible out of no where and I was confused I called my parents up to my room and they couldn’t see me so I got out of bed quietly so they couldn’t hear me so I went down stairs to make myself the best breakfast, warm pancakes with syrup drizzled over it and hot bacon with ice cold orange juice. After I demolished the food i went out to see if I was truly invisible and I was! No one could see me so I started doing pranks on people like tapping on their shoulder and they are so confused which is funny. Then I started to go to stores to mess with the manager and employees and started going on the speaker screaming and they had no idea what was going on. Then I went to the mall to get some food / clothes without even paying for it. Then I went back home to see all my stuff and they looked perfect. So I went out to do more pranks but when I was gonna do more pranks and my invisibility ran out and I realized it was only for Twenty-four hours and I got busted that guy called my parents and once I got home they went in my room and they found all the food and the clothes and I had to return them and I got nothing after that day. Thats what I would do if I was invisible for Twenty-four hours.
Abandoned on an Island
Life on my abandoned island is stressful. One day me and my friends were on a boat because we were fishing until a storm hit, the storm was pushing us east on towards a island then I fell off the boat. I couldn’t move the water was controlling me and by the time the storm ended I was stranded on the island. I set up camp next to the coconut trees since thats where the shade is. Luckily I had a survival bag so I have all of the essentials, toothbrush, clothes, water, first aid kit, and bagged food. Everyday I wake up brush my teeth, change into new clothes, and eat some food. The island is pretty small theres not that much space for me just to roam around theres sand surrounding the island with a bunch of coconut trees towards the middle of the island. This is my experience of a Abandoned island.
Perfect Breakfast
My mouth is drooling thinking about a perfect breakfast. I think that a perfect breakfast would have pancake with syrup drizzled all over it, with some soft but not too soft bacon on the side with the pancakes. The drink should be a freshly squeezed orange juice, there would also be freshly cut grannie smith apples on the side with some green crunchy grapes. Then i would eat all of it and this is what i think the perfect breakfast would look like.
My Heros
Somebody I look up to is my mom dad. I look up to my dad because he taught me how to play basketball. And my mom taught me how to cook. They also cheer me up when I’m not feeling that great. And if I don’t understand anything they help me which I appreciate they helped me with everything in life like helping me ride a bike, going places with me. Which i appreciate and this is why my parents are my hero’s.
