Thank God It's Friday


 Today I am going to my grandma's home a.k.a Mamiloqui's home. She only lets me call her that. Well anyway, I am going to go to her apartment and I will play with my friend Daniela. I also pretend to practice a tango for the nexrt party I have in my house. In addition, I pretend to stay up late watching CSI Miami and Cold Case.                                                                                                                                  So far everything has been okay, but I suspect we will be having a fire drill with all this snow. Luckily, we were told to grab our coats. As I am typing I am in computer class. Now I have to leave see you later alligators.

Silk!

Dear viewers,
  Today from school. Yay. I read " The Story of the World." I found out that the person that discovered silk was Lei Zu, wife of the emperor, Huang Di. One day she was under a mulberry tree having lunch. She was about to drink her tea when a silk worm cocoon fell into her drink. She unraveled the cocoon to find a thread so light that it floated in the wind and shone like the sun. She picked some more and gave them to the tailor to make into a robe for her husband. That is how the Chinese made SILK!!!
               Love,
      Lila
