2/24/2018 Dear Diary,                   I recently saw a very sad documentary about children from the Holocaust, "I'm Still Here." It talked about the daily changes that children from that time period had to go through told through the diaries written by many of the children who lived through it. I was shocked at how cruel the Nazis treated children. They placed all Jews into ghettos. If they didn't work they would be deported to certain death. Many people died from starvation and disease. Children were treated no different than adults when it came to work, but children were much more likely to be deported to the death camps because they generally would not work as well as adults. I think that this documentary will have have a big effect on people. It will make them realize how hard it was for these children.

Imagine that one night at the dinner table you were told that you were moving. You would be moving far from the place that you grew up in, away from all your friends and away from your beloved home. Most of us be heartbroken at the though of leaving behind everything that you knew and loved. Then your parents told you that they got to design the new house. Now what would you say? Probably still mad right? But after thinking about it, I think that you would realize that you had no choice in the decision that you were moving, and maybe try you would even to accept it. Now you get to help design your house. What would you want in your house? What kind of luxuries would you want in your own room? It is a good question to always be thinking about; just in your randomly told that your moving.

Today I'm Going to show you some pictures of this that are very important to me. A few years ago along with my family, I went to Starved Rock. We saw many beautiful waterfalls and some amazing rock formations. All of those things were great, but my favorite part was that I got to spend and entire weekend with my family. Sometimes I feel very stressed or EXTREMELY bored. I find that the best remedy for this is to play or listen to some music. I believe that everyone has an inner musician, because of the many different types of music. For me its the Guitar.
