Fun Zumba Party

My mom and I went to a Zumba class at the Fitness 19 gym. It was a special class to celebrate Christmas. Most of us wore Christmas-themed clothes and hats, and I wore my festive ugly sweater with bells and lights.



Our Zumba instructor, Myrtle, played some Christmas music. We danced to all the Christmas songs. I danced very crazily, yelled very happily, and danced with a very nice old lady. I was sweating and uplifted.




After the dance, we had a fun raffle. I won a gift bag of beauty products. I was so excited. 


After the raffle, we had a potluck. There were pork, fried shrimp, cheesy potatoes, noodles, samosas, spring rolls, and rice, along with some cookies and coconut pudding. It was so delicious! 

 


As we ate, we chatted with friends. I even made a new friend, Randy. What a wonderful Zumba party!

Five-Colored Fried Rice

Image
I made the fried rice with five ingredients: seaweed, shrimp, edamame, eggs, and brown rice. These ingredients have five different colors. First, I cut the seaweed into small pieces on the big plate.  Next, I put the cooked shrimp and edamame next to the seaweed. Then I beat the eggs in a tin bowl and fried them first. After the eggs were cooked and fluffy, I added the remaining ingredients to the pan.  At last, I added salt and sesame oil for flavor.   I enjoyed colorful fried rice with  apple slices. It's savory and fragrant.

Sleepover at Cal Academy of Sciences

I joined my scout’s sleepover event at Cal Academy of Sciences on Cinco de Mayo evening. Ms. Helen took Selina, Jenna, and me there, and we met other scouts at the entrance. First, we put our stuff down at Piazza. Then, we started exploration. We walked around to see the white alligator and went to the African Hall. I saw many animals, including leopards and giraffes. At the end of the hall, I saw penguins. Later, we watched a movie called Expedition Reef. After the movie, we went to the aquarium to see fish. We also went to the living roof at night. I saw a Ferris wheel far away. We listened to a storybook that was read by the museum staff. For a snack, I ate a cookie with apple juice. Finally, it was bedtime. I set up my sleep stuff first. I laid out my beach towel on the floor. I put my yoga mat on it.  And I placed the sleeping bag on the top. I went to sleep after I washed my face, brushed my teeth, and wore pajamas. The following day,  the loudspeaker woke us up. We clea...

Chinese New Year Party

On Saturday, I joined my friend Grace's Chinese New Year party. We were celebrating the Year of the Snake. Grace's mom bought Panda Express food for us. I ate orange chicken with fried rice and beef, and I  also ate chow mein. I drank root beer and apple cider. For dessert, we had a delicious chocolate cake.  As a guest, I brought a bag of coconut rice cookies and a bag of sesame cookies.  They are unique for the Chinese New Year. We played  Mario Cart on Nintendo Switch. We played all the games. We watched the lion dance on TV. We laughed together, and we had a good  Chinese New Year Party. I got a lot of red envelopes. I enjoyed the food.  I had a blast at the party.   Happy Chinese New Year, everyone!
