The sound of my alarm wakes me up. Finally it's Friday thank the Lord! I get up and start getting ready.

Dear Lord I pray that you would lead and guide me today Father, that your will would be done.

I pray as I'm brushing my teeth. After I'm done with that I put on my clothes today I decided to wear some jeans and a Just Pray shirt with my converses. I also decided to wear my hair down and natural for today.

I also pack my bag to stay at Aunt Jamie's.

It's starting to be fall!! I love fall it's my favorite season the way it goes from hot to warm during the day and in the evening it gets cool.
I love to watch Hocus Pocus and Halloween Town. Just the feeling, it feels like fall.

I pick up my devotional and read the one for today.

August 30

TRUST ME, and don't be afraid. I want you to view trials as exercises designed to develop your trust-muscles. You live in the midst of fierce spiritual battles, and fear is one of Satans favorite weapons. When you start to feel afraid, affirm your trust in Me. Speak out loud, if circumstances permit. Resist the devil in My Name, and he will slink away from you. Refresh yourself in My holy Presence. Speak or sing praises to Me, and My Face will shine radiantly upon you. Remember that there is no condemnation for those who belong to Me. You have been judged NOT GUILTY for all eternity. Trust Me, and don't be afraid; for I am your Strength, Song and Salvation.

After i read it I get a message. It's from Bell.

Bell💗: Good Morning!! Aunt Jamie said she would just drive you here after school so go wait in her office when the bell rings. Mamas gonna drop me off at 3:30. Love you! 

Brooklyn: Good morning!! Okay sounds good. Love you more!

After I get off the bus I walk to the cafeteria to meet Sherwood. I walk in and see Sherwood at a table, I walk over to him and see he's on his phone.

"Hey." I say.

"Hey." He says as he puts his phone up and stands up to walk to class.

We start walking to class. Miss Scott's class was good. We then went to maths, we listened to Promises by Maverick city on K-love. It really helped me do my work. It gave me the motivation to push through even if I was struggling. I knew some of the curriculum though.

When class was over me and Sherwood parted ways.

"See you later." I said.

"See ya." He says as he walks toward his next class.

I then begin walking to Miss Swans class. I wonder what we're gonna learn today. She actually makes learning fun, which some teachers don't do and their class is boring. We always write or talk about something interesting.

I walk in and see her writing something on the board I don't pay it too much attention though. Today she is wearing some black dress pants with a black crew neck and back heels. Her hairs also in a bun today.I take my seat and look at the board. It says I want you to think about a theme in Matilda and we're gonna discuss it in today's lesson.

"Okay quite down, it's time to discuss today's lesson." She says in a cold tone.

"So what do you think the themes In Matilda were?" She asks.

"Education?" James says.

"Love and family?" I say.

"You're right Brooklyn but you're missing one." She says.
