Grahams Several Sentences

My name is Graham and for my twenty percent project I chose juggling while riding a unicycle. I chose this as my skill because my uncle bought me a unicycle for Christmas and I wanted to learn how to ride it. This was my last week to learn the unicycle for the project but I was unable to do it because of two problems. One my coach changed the practice and games a week from four to six so I had much less time to work on this and the second reason I was unable to conquer this skill is because riding a unicycle is actually really hard. I kept fall over and over and over again and eventually ran out of time to finish this. One thing I had to adjust to even come close to doing this is fix my work habits. My procrastination often got the better of me and I ended up just sitting down after practices instead of riding the unicycle so I had to start trying harder. But even after I did fix that I didn’t even have enough time to finish the project and I failed.

My rad reading book for this month was The Iron Queen by Julie Kagawa. The plot for this story is basically a continuation of the last book.

She saves her dad from a crazy faery girl who kidnapped him and find out that the current iron king is an imposter and needs to be stopped. I think that this book had a lot of good parts but I think the coolest part is when they go to live in this awesome invisible cabin by a creek that’s basically my dream house. There are also a lot of good characters but my favorite one is Puck. Puck is my favorite because he always uses funny yet passive aggressive comments to break tension. A quote that well demonstrates this is. Like on page 305 when Meghan is ordering them to go to sleep after a days worth of hiking Puck says “My, aren’t we bossy today,”
