freedom fighter - Julian Assange

I've seen they are trying to lock Julian Assange for good. He is still stuck in the embassy, but he is now without internet because of pressure from the US. Ruxandra says such actions are wrong. Freedom of speech and transparency when governing should be something the US strives for instead of striving at closing the mouth of the press by killing a very capable person who tried to change the world. I am American and I am ashamed America takes decisions like this. The America I could be proud of would hire Julian Assange and learn from him instead of shutting his mouth off. He was mistreated enough that it's hard to go back and be fair now. Still so much money is being spent on mistreating this one person that could be put to better use. If I can understand this, and I am eleven, why can't the rest of the world? why can't the (old and boring) people in power understand? perhaps they are too old, too boring, too bent in wrong directions to take just decisions?

My pig-like day

 I ate like a pig, and grandma is cross. I made some small and ugly crepes. They were very tasty.  Then grandma made fries and I ate nearly all of them. I did give a selected few to grandpa -- intentionally -- without pepper,  and he said they were not good. I liked them very much myself with or without the condiments. Grandma was unhappy I kept contriving to eat as much as possible. I hope she will take me to tennis. I did go to tennis even though it was rainy. After awhile all the children left. I stayed and played with the teacher. When I called grandma, she came to pick me up and we went to the market. I ate a donut there. When we got home, grandpa wanted medicine. His lungs get clogged because he spends too much time in the horizontal position. When we put him on the armchair, he requires to be put back to bed only 2-3 minutes later. Grandma bought antibiotics from Lugoj, and gave them to grandpa for a whole week. It's been 6 months since grandpa's stroke an...

Mishaps

  I fought for ice-cream.  Grandpa loves ice-cream. Since he is bed, and cannot enjoy much beyond eating, grandma buys it for him, and also tries to cook what he likes. This means I've been eating lots of ice-cream, too, and plenty of fried chicken. From the first box, I was greedy and ate 7 small ice-creams. Grandma, grandpa and I are in Chizatau with the goats and Ruxandra and Edward are in Lugoj. When Edward came to visit I became very angry when he tried to eat his second ice-cream and swore I've only had one. He had dropped haft of his first on the floor, and still felt entitled to more. He took another one independent of my protests, and dropped it again, and then a third. At last Ruxandra had to intervene to stop the fight. He was wasting them. I broke the glass from the door with a brick. Even though I am 11, I still throw pretty bad temper tantrums. I was supposed to go on a school trip to a pool in Orastie with Frau Roxi and the rest of my classmates. I wanted a...

Pacala, God and the origin bugs on Earth: stories from school

When I came home from school, I searched for and found Piki, our tortoise, again. It has grown a whole ring since she's been free. I think it eats grains and chicken poop, which is why I keep finding her in the chicken's enclosure. She pooped in my hand and it was very yucky! She also bit me. I don't think she likes being found and would rather be free. Then I had homework in Romanian. I had to do one more test. It had been a text about Pacala who sold his cow to a tree. The poem says it interpreted the wind as the tree bargaining -- Pacala first asks for 70 lei, then 40 lei, and ultimately leaves the cow there without forcing the tree to pay. Grandma says he simply left the cow by the oak tree because Pacala was too lazy to take the cow to the market and told his mother he sold it for nothing to cover himself. I am inclined to believe grandma's interpretation. I spend a lot of time moving form bed to bed and let grandma do all the work around the house. So, I unders...
