Fitness Test

I'm having a P.E. fitness test on second block today. Today is the Pacer, Push up and sit ups. 2 days ago, I did the Mile Run and the sit and reach, and I decreased on Mile where I got 8 minutes 24 seconds. My best score was 8 minutes 6 seconds. On the sit and reach, I increased where I got R : 12.5, L : 11.5. We just had to increase in one leg, and I increased by 0.5 inch because I got 12 last time.

The Pacer is where you have to run back and forth by the recording. It will say how many laps you are on. Example : 25! 26! 27! etc... Also, there is a sound like "BEEP! Then you have to get to the line before the beep. If you don't make it 2 in a row, you are out. When 7 laps are finished, there will be a weird sounding beep and the beep will then become faster.

To get an A for P.E., we have to increase in 2 things out of 5. Those five are Pacer, Push up, sit up, Mile and sit and reach. Since I increased in sit and reach, i have to increasll e in 1 more thing. My Pacer score 2 fitness tests ago was 66, and the fitness test before I also got 66. I have to get at least 67 to get an A, which is one of my goals for my fitness test today. For the sit ups, I got around 50 last time, so my other goal is getting more than 50. Also, my last goal is to beat my push ups, where I got around 30 last time, and trying to beat 30 today. I don't really mind if I increase in just 1 thing, because I could still get an A. I think it is hard to increase the Pacer and the curl up, but I think I can make it to beating my push ups and getting an A.

Monk

We watched a movie called "Monk" in English class today. The reason of watching this movie is because we were on our mystery unit, and this movie fits this topic perfectly. This episode was called the Voodoo curse, which is a black magic which some people believe only.

One day, a old woman was hit by a baseball while she was passing by. She died immediately and Monk, his assistant Natalie and 2 other detectives came to solve this problem. Then, when the detective went to her house, there was a voodoo dall that was packaged. In the package, it said that it was sent 3 days ago before this baseball incident. The doll looked like the old woman, and it had a baseball that was stuck on the dolls head. Monk and the other detectives tried to solve this crime case, and right after this one, there was a newspaper article that said that a lightning killed a golfer. In the golfer's house, there was another doll sent which said 3 days ago and had a wire lightning sticking out of top of his head. It was a voodoo doll, and Monk's assistant Natalie thought that it was the Voodoo's curse, and she believed it. There were some more incidents that was similar to this, and one of them was Mr. Robert, Angeline's uncle's case. Mr. Robert already had a heart disease, and one day he died of heart attack in his house and there was a voodoo doll on the desk with the heart taken off. Angeline said that the doll killed him. After that, a similar case happened to Monk's assistant, Natalie. A voodoo doll was sent with Natalie's name on it and the head cut off. Natalie got really scared, and couldn't sleep. Because of that reason, Monk calls Mr. Reverend to uncurse Natalie. He makes a potion with all the weird ingredients and when he was saying something, Natalie became unpatient and drank the potion right away even though she was supposed to rub it on her neck. Mr. Reverend called 911 right away and the paramedic and police came. When the paramedic got on the ambulance with Natalie alone, Mr. Reverend and Monk rode a seperate car behind. Then, Mr. Reverend found everything out. He knew that Angeline was one of Mr. Reverend's Voodoo doll custemers. Angeline mailed a package to herself, makes the dolls, and put it in the package. She makes a package that says that it was sent 3 days ago, and mails it to the victims house after she gets the keys of the house. She also killed her uncle Mr. Robert by putting drugs into his mouth and she knew exactly what to put because she was a paramedic. Then in the ambulance, Angeline and Natalie started fighting, until Monk and Mr. Reverend comes out of the truck and opens the ambulance door.
