-      Spring break is almost here. We have only one more day until have a whole week off. These last few days have seemed so long. I am looking forward to many things during the week. I will be at my dad's house that week. My dad dosn't live in Fresno so I look forward to seeing him.
     I also can't wait for Friday because my church's youth group and I are going to San Fransico. We will be driving up there tomorrow night. We will be having so much fun. We are going to take a tour of Chinatown. We also will be crossing the Golden Gate Bridge and going to Alcatraz. I think that we will be having such a good time because we are all such good friends and we all get along well. So I really can't wait to get out of school Friday afternoon. 

I Think that my favorite topic from the middle ages was learning about popes and kings and how they fought for power. What i thought was interesting was that during this time the pope was more powerful than the king. It was this way because the people thought that the pope could either make sure that they go into heaven or don't. So the poeple thought he was more inportant. 
My favorite story was when the king thought that the pope shuldn't pick the bishop so he picked his own. 
When the pope heard this he excommunacated him from the church. THis was not good. The king rode to the pope and then neeled in the snow for three days
