My name

What I found out about my first name is that it stands for "defender of mankind". I didn't know it standed for this and I was suprised. I kind of know what it means but still is kind of confusing. I wonder how the person who made the name or thought of it. Overall I think it's cool how my name has a meaning and how it has a powerful-like meaning. This is what my name stands for.

What I did that was kind in the Break

What I did that was kind/thoughtful this break was that I helped clean my house. I think this was the one thing I did was kind over break because I didn't do much the whole break. My break was good because I got to sleep a lot and got to play basketball. I felt that the break was fast but at least I had time to rest. This is what I did that was kind and what I did generally over the break.

The favorite gift I've received for Christmas

My favorite gift was a new phone. I got the iPhone 7 and I was suprised that I got it. It's my favorite gift I received this Christmas because I needed a new phone. I would mostly get clothes which is fine but I think that the phone was better than clothes. I hope that the ill get good things again in the future. This is the favorite gift I've received for Christmas.
