From kindergarten to Elementary school I loved to read. My favorite part about reading when I was little is when my teachers and older people would read to me. I would sit there and picture every sentence they read. I remember when we used to have story time. We would all gather around on the floor as our teacher read exciting books to us.
When I was in kindergarten, I had my first experience with books when I was younger. Reading books not only helped me how to read, it also helped me how to spell and write too. When I started reading, it was very hard for me to spell and write too. When I started reading it was very hard for me because I am not good at reading or spelling so it makes it hard for me to read a book and actually concentrate. When I was younger I would read a lot more than I do now.
Elementary school was one of the funniest years of reading. All the books that I read were very colorful and they had a lot of pictures. My classmates and I read a lot of different kinds of books. There we mostly read kid books like The Cat in The Hat. My favorite book that I read when I was in elementary school was Where the Wild Things Are. This was my favorite book because I liked the pictures in the book. It was also easy for me to read.
I went to Glen Landing Middle School. At that school we started to read interesting books that would make you want to keep reading. Books that had good stories to them. I usually wouldn’t read on my own time in middle school. Whenever I would read it usually would be for language class and the books that we would be reading were boring so I usually wouldn’t read them. I didn’t read that much in middle school and I regret it now. I didn’t really have any favorite authors in middle school because I didn’t read that much.

Chocolate Chip Cookies
Since i love cookies and chocolate, I'm going to talk a little about them. I'm going to share my special recipe that i always make from scratch.
Some things that you will need for this recipe would be:
5 Tbsp butter
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp beaten egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp each baking soda and salt
6 oz milk chocolate chips
Now I'm going to tell you the directions:
Heat oven to 375°F.
Beat butter, syrup and both sugars in a large bowl with mixer for 1 minute or until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and egg and mix it all together.
Whisk flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl to mix. With mixer slowly add to butter mixture until combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
Using a cookie scoop, drop dough apart on baking sheets.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until just brown around edges.
This is how i make my yummy cookies, just how my momma taught me. i hope everyone enjoys my recipe!!

Enzymes
I had to do a report in chemistry about Enzymes, so i know a lot about them. I'm going to tell you some important facts about Enzymes.
Enzymes are proteins that boost the rates of chemical reactions. Enzymes change their selves into different molecules called the products. In some reactions, the molecules at the start of the process are called substrates. A substrate is a molecule where enzymes act. Pretty much all biological cells need enzymes or no important rates will happen. The amount of them in a cell determines which metabolic pathway will happen in that cell because they are selective for their substrates. They work by lowering the activation energy for a reaction, while a lot of others increase the rate of reaction. Enzymes are not consumed by the reactions they catalyze. They also do not alter the equilibrium of these reactions. But they do vary from most other catalysts by being much more specific.
Other molecules can affect the enzymes activity. Inhibitors are one of them. They like to reduce enzymes activity. A molecule that likes to raise enzymes activity would be activators. Activators like to combine with enzymes witch Leeds to them increasing their activity. Enzymes are able to catalyze only one chemical reaction or at the most two reactions involving substrates sharing the same general structure.
Enzymes are also in raw food. I think that it would be healthy for Americans to eat more raw food. I’m sure that people would notice that they have more energy and health if your started eating more raw food in their diets. It’s true that a lot of enzymes are killed by heat which means when you cook them. When raw foods are exposed to heat they breakdown. There for enzymes are no longer able to do what they were designed.
There are also enzyme supplements too. All living things need them to live. Your body depends on them to help your blood and to help break down fats. It cleans the colon and helps your energy level. These proteins are found in every cell in your body. Some people lack these proteins and need to take supplements to help keep their body’s healthy and strong. We have about 1,200 different enzymes in our body’s that helps keep our body’s disease free.
There’s also something called liver enzymes. They help speed up a chemical reaction in your liver. The liver is very important because it helps to keep away many toxins in the body. Which makes proteins that are used to help clot the blood draw fluid into our blood vessels. Enzymes are very important for our body’s and living things.

Burger King
I would like to talk a little bit about my new job at Burger King. So far i am doing pretty good there. I'm a quick learner and a hard worker. I do the cash register and i help push food. I haven't learned how to make the food yet but I'm pretty sure it will be a piece of cake.
I'm haven't problem there with the managers. Just one manager in particular. Even though i like to speak my mind i try and keep my mouth shut until i get home. The only thing bad about burger king would be the lack of respect for miners. I feel like they treat people differently depending on there age. Sometimes you gotta but up with things that you would rather not want to, too get what you want. And in that case it money.
