Eek, Alaska

My first time going Eek in my life. I am going to take lots of pictures with my camera when we get there. I bet there will be a lot of people over there. EEEEEEEEE! I can't wait. I really can't wait it is going to be soooooooooo fun! I hope I will see some of my friends over there. If I get bored over there I could just bring my book, "Pendragon" I will never get bored.
There are other kids that never did Native Youth Olympics(NYO). And its the first time the NYO people went to Eek well some did I don't know. Their website is so.... "High tech!" Its sort of cool.

Why popular?/ people should start giving clothes to the poor all over the world.

WHY HEELIES? I mean why do people need foot wear with wheels just to look cool to get popular with kids. WHY DO PEOPLE NEED TO FIT IN WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE COOL, OR SMART, OR BULLIES? Why DO people need to get popular? We are all the same even though they are trendy with fashion designers clothes. Its really weird that people will wear uncomfortable clothing that looks "Stylish." Who would rather be a supermodel to be skinny, and beautiful just to fit in fashionable clothing that's so TIGHT to wear! Everybody is the same. I mean who would want to have clothes to only fit skinny people. All the people in the world need clothing and money. Like in Africa people really need food, clothing, all the things they need to survive. Fashion designers are just waisting good cloth to give to really skinny supermodels.

People should start to care for other people instead of themselves. The kids in Africa are working for their family to survive. Why do people only think of themselves instead of others? the world is crumbling because of some people are only thinking of themselves, instead of the poor all over the world just like Africa. I want the world to know that people are not thinking of the environment and creating more and more trash. Some big companies should donate a lot of money to the poor and the ones that are helping the poor then the others. This is why our money is only going to the army, the money should be going to homes that are for the people who worked harder then "The Big Shots" who are successful. those people should start giving money to those who really need it then them. The world is crumbling and we can stop it. If all the people in the world in the whole wide world could just really, really, really, think about those poor families that had been foreclosed from their home. And they don't have enough money for the whole family. I wish that someday my voice will be heard about poverty. All of us, all of the people are the same. We aren't that different from each other. I wish there was never war, poverty, everything that makes us worse than others. I wish people would just learn that everybody is the same. We can work together and fix our problems in the world. I am a dreamer, I am a wisher, I am a hopeful student who just wants piece in the world.

Learning about my grandparents on my mother's side

I know that my Grandfather, Matthew Stevens, did something good, and so that the people who built Qugcuun Memorial School, named it after my grandfather's name. I want to learn more about him and his past history, and his parents. I want learn how he did something good, or was he just a good person that was really wise. I really, really, really, really, want to know what he did he do to deserve a great thing to happen to him. I wonder if that he was a real good listener and really wise. I wonder if that he has the knowledge of the past and the old ways of a Yupik Eskimo. I have all these questions in my head all about my grandfather on my mother's side. I really, really, really, really, really want to know all about him. Maybe I could ask my mom about him sooner or later. Was he the only elder in the time when they built the school? It is really frustrating that questions that never get answered in my head. All I want to know is all about my grandfather I think he is really interesting because this school is named after him.
