In chapter six, one major event happens. Nyasha and her father get into a fight. The reason for the fight, is the disrespect that Nyasha shows Babamakuru. The scariest thing about the fight is Babamakuru threatens to kill Nyasha. After that fight, Nyasha is in a whole different world. She does not want to talk to anyone, or interact with anyone. I believe that this fight will change her forever.
In chapter seven, Tambu, Baba, and Nyasha go back to the homestead. She comes back surprised, to see her home is in bad condition. Her mother is home, and her father was with a man named Takesure. Also, Lucia is a new character. The names have been quite confusing in this chapter. Especially because they call some characters, multiple names. All in all, chapter 7 was about the family coming together once again.

# English problems
Right now, I have been pretty stressed out. I have had a lot of homework, and it has been mostly English. With the vocabulary cards, 150 minutes of reading, and nervous conditions questions, it has been hard to handle that, and my other subjects as well. I find myself trying to get ahead in other classes, but never finding the time to do more to bring up my grade.
Honestly, the hardest part of getting all of my work done is sports and guitar. I have baseball practice everyday, except for sunday. With so much practice, it is hard to get all of my work done. I take baseball very seriously, so I cannot just skip a day if I have to much homework. I have been trying to find time to do guitar as well, because it is a hobby that I really like. I really hope that the work load in English decreases some, because I have been trying to make time for many things that need to be done, and my other subject grades have been suffering lately, because I do not have as much time as I need to study.

Skyrim
Skyrim is a very addicting video game, and is also very fun. I think it is so fun because you can do almost anything in this game. You get to choose from many different creatures to be in the beginning of the game. Each type of character has different special abilities. For example, I choose to be an High Elf, so my magic is automatically easier to cast than others.
The game setting is in a place called Skyrim. Your main quest is to defeat Alduin, a dragon god, who is trying to destroy the world. It might seem like a "Nerdy" game, but it is very fun. I play it on the weekends, when I am bored usually. It is a very popular game right now. I hope that the game does not keep me from other important endeavors, but still keeps me entertained.

Nervous conditions
So far, honestly, I am not enjoying Nervous conditions. I am not saying that it is not a good book, but is is not really my favorite genre. I am still getting through the book though. So far, I have read up to chapter three. The primary focus of the story has been on the main characters brother, who died. It is a bit interesting though, to see the way that Tambu describes her brother.
Nervous conditions is not and easy read. Sometimes I find the plot is hard to follow. You have to read carefully in order to understand what is going on in the book. Also, there are many characters in the book, which is also very confusing. The last difficult thing to manage in Nervous conditions is the language, Sometimes the dialog of the book can be confusing, because they are from Zimbabwe. Over all it is a hard read, but it is manageable.

My room
My room is one of my favorite places in my house. I can relax in my room, and have my privacy. I like to just lay on my bed, and play music or just sleep sometimes. I have pictures of my good friends and family on the walls, along with some of my favorite sports teams.
When you walk in my room, my bed is sitting in the dead center. To the right in the corner is my desk where I do my homework. I have my bean bag chair in the far right corner, where I usually play my guitar. Next to my bed I have a dresser that has some pictures of my Family on it. I feel relaxed in my room, which is why it is my favorite room in the house.

Coal pollution progress part 2
I am currently working on my rough draft on my project. I believe it is going quite well. I have turned in my rough draft, and as I was reading over it, I noticed that my ideas did not flow very well. I need to work hard on my final draft, and fix some mistakes I made.
The process has been hard work. I have been working on this project for a while now, searching for good, useful information that I could put into my rough draft, that would be a good contributor to my thesis statement. I will continue to revise my paper, and work hard to get the grade I need for this paper.
