October 6 was my little cousin’s birthday. His name is Jayden, and on that day he turned 5 years old. It was really fun. We dressed up in our Halloween costumes and we play games. One of them was hot potato, freeze dance, musical chairs, little kid hit the piñata. Everyone was jumping to get all the candy. It was cool and I jumped to get the candy too. I also bought something to to make my hair purple. The day went really fast, but at least it was really fun

Dear Journalism Star,

Some students in school don’t always get their homework finished. In some cases, they say it’s too hard.  Sometimes students are just lazy and just don’t do it. A lot of the time, people forget their books in school.  But I remember my books and I am by no means lazy. My problem- I am addicted to video games. Please help!

Sincerely,

Addicted T. Games

You can balance your playing time and your homework time by making a schedule for each day of the week. This way you can get your homework finished AND you you can play your video game. You can desigin the schedule yourself, or ask your parents for help. Having a schedule makes it easier to get homework finished and still lets you have fun.

Good luck,

Journalism Star
