Life on the island is fine this year. The crops are growing well, and in a few weeks we will be ready to harvest. We will have a surplus this year. The storms have been mild this summer, and we are looking forward to a calm winter. I believe the nice weather is because of the numerous sacrifices we have made in the past few months. Csoi is pleased, and i can feel his happiness within the town.
Today went well, the waves were calm so that made the weeding easy. I like my job weeding the crops, I am not anxious to start the harvest. When I turn sixteen in October I will be old enough to begin work in the factories.
Today Marcus talked to me, I was very excited. He asked me if I will be joining in the harvest work this year, or if I will be working in the seam. I told him I will be out on the fields, he smiled and said "hopefully we'll be working in the same section". I am sure I blushed..
It was a fine day, I will write more tomorrow.

The Harvest is finally over, Heskoi is pleased, and we can all feel Csoi's pleasure. It was a plentiful year.
My family and I are planning to move to the other side of the island at the end of this winter. Hashli Is anxious, she cannot wait to leave this side of the island. The other side is upper class and we are ready to upgrade.
Hashli is very pregnant, and will soon be ready to have our baby. Beautiful little Malie is very excited, she dances around in the living room singing songs to the baby, then will run up to her mommy's stomach and put her ear up to listen. After listening intently she will step back and excitedly announce that "Baby claps for me!"
It is late, and Hashli is calling me to read to Malie.

School was boring today, we did a lot of math. I hate math. Mrs. Jimex scares me, she is a mean lady. Recess was fun, I played with Alex and Renic. We played cops and robbers, and I won! Alex fell off the swing set and scraped his knee, but he didnt cry. He was bleeding a lot, it looked really cool! My mom made me do lots of chores today, I dont like chores. It was getting cold today, I had to wear long pants instead of shorts. I'm going to go eat now.
