Dear Journal,
Today was blaah. We didn't do much. We went to Chabad to pick up somethings for Passover and we went to get some pictures framed. I had a bit of a head-ache so I didn't get involved with everything. But we came home and opened a box of matzah. Jacob just couldn't wait 'till Saturday and my dad was sick of his whining so he bought a box to have today. What we were picking up from Chabad was stuff for passover that we can't get here that a guy from Chicago brought. My mom sen a whole long list to this guy and he brought everything except pomegranate paste, which obviously is almost impossible to find considering we live in China.So when we came hoe, I had a matzah and sliced turkey sandwich for lunch. It was a good taste, that I felt a little lite-headed. It was like a dream. I now can't wait untill next week either! In a little while, me and Jacob have roller-blading class but since there was barely anything to do, I decided to write to yall there who are reading. I was gonna invite a friend over but it was too late by the time I was done with lunch.
Have a great rest of the weekend and week!!
Love,
Goldie
P.S. I might add more to this later so keep check my blog!!

Tokyo Friendship!
Dear Journal, March 22, 2008
There has been soo much going on that there was no time to write. I was still thinking about what to write for when I did get a chance to write. Here is one thing that I've been planing to do this coming week. Here it goes...
#1. Tokyo, here we come!
Next week is our spring vacation. We are going to Tokyo and the best part is.... that we're going to see the Red Sox play in the Tokyo Dome!! We are living to go on this coming Sunday, March 23, Easter. A coincidence, is that my best friend Caroline (I'll put a picture on the blog), is going too!!! She is going to the same game as us (except we have tickets to both games). She, her dad and her mom are going to Tokyo. I was soo excited when I heard that Caroline was going that I said, "What the heck. Even if the Red Sox lose, I'll be with my friend! And, I'll be in heaven with soo much sushi!!"
Hope you guys have a great Shabbat and week!
Love,
Goldie

Visitors of Shanghai and Xian
Dear Journal,
Last week I was in Boston and I saw my friends and family. The day before we came back to China, my friend Ayden Mallory left for Xian, China. Her father is going with a bunch of students to Xian to study and learn the culture of China. He took his family with him on the trip, that's why Ayden is there. They are there for 4months, or until May. I am hoping to see her in March and April, and in April they are going to come and spend Passover with us.
This week I found out that my grandma and grandpa/ Bubbie and Zaydie are coming to see us at the end of April; to be exact April 26th. This morning, me and my mom were writing a list of things to do with my Bubbie and Zaydie.

Massage! Here I come!
Dear Journal,
I said I would be back soon and here I am! I am waiting for a massage that I actually just had 5 minutes ago. So, I'm not really waiting but I really did have a massage about 5 minutes ago. We got shoulder and back massage and they put very relaxing music on to make us fall asleep. I was soo relaxed, exactly how you're supposed to act to a thing like this. Not much else has happened during the 24 hours that I wasn't on my blog. I went to school, heard there is no school tomorrow, came home on the bus, relaxed, had dinner, went for a massage, and look at where I'm standing right now (well you can't exactly see where I was sitting/standing, but you get the concept)! I am getting ready to pack. my packing day will probably be tomorrow 'cause I have no school, Friday afternoon, and Saturday evening. You know something kind-of funny, we have been here nearly 7 months, and I still don't have the sound to my computer in my room.
Love Ya!
Sincerely,
Goldie Davoudgoleh
P.S. Abby, yesterday, I didn't mean to hert you if I did.Say hi to Elijah and Odessa! Bye!

So many things to chat about all over the world! Especially in Boston, China!
Dear Journal,
We, as in my whole family, have been so busy with vacation, the holidays, and school, I have forgotten about my journal and how you guys love it! So i wanted to give a little (not) info on whats happening' here in china. First of all I am great and there is nothing t worry about 'cause me and my blog are staying' here FOREVER!! Plus, we are in the hands of my wicked-awesome parents!
Anyways, getting back to me and all that "stuff", I am about to share a little magic with y'all people out there reading this blog of mine (read this sentence in a Texas accent) (ye ha!):
#1. Awesome Vacation!
Last week we came back from freezing cold Beijing and more freezing cold Harbin. Beijing was more of a historical kind-of place and Harbin was more like a winter wonderland. In Beijing we went to the Temple of Heaven, The Great Wall (which wasn't very hard to climb because of the cable-cars), and many more places that I can't think of! Harbin although was freezing, was amazing! Winter wonderland (as in Harbin)had not statues but building's and sculptures made out of... actually, I am going to put a picture of what it's made out of n my blog later and whoever answers in a email first, may get a prize in February like I promised Amy Wald who emailed me first on the other entry when I did this with my dads gift. Anyways, everything was awesome.
The End
#2. Tooth Loosing Maniac!
As some of you know, my brother got his teeth late when he was a toddler. So he is just starting to loose them. He actually lost his 2nd one during vacation on the plane from Beijing to Harbin. My moms like, "Do you want it out in Beijing or Harbin?" And Jacob said to yank it now... and that's just what she did. Yank! The tooth was out and we were just going up into the air (and wave em like you just don't care!).
The End
#3. Almost with y'all in the USA!!
It is Sunday, January 27th, 2008 and I am getting ready for my plane ride to Boston in exactly one week! We, as in me, mom, dad, and brother Jacob, are so excited to be on our way. We can't wait to see y'all next week. And actually, we will be in Boston for the Super Bowl! You know what I like about the Super Bowl, the cool sweat shirts they sell at Decathlon. They have Decathlon here but they don't sell the sweat shirts because it's not a big event in China, you know. We are bringing many presents with us to fill a whole suitcase (not exactly). We are bringing fancy chopsticks and jewelry and jade turtles. They are really awesome; I hope all y'all will like the presents we bring to all of you.
The End
#4. Chinese New Year
This week we are coming to Boston for our Chinese New Year vacation. It is like our new year but a little bit more red-ish and fancy. Like dragons and door posts and things like that. Jacob will be talking about that in his little presentation to the second grade classes. He is going to read a book about it. I will be bringing in a slide show that me and my family downloaded to watch on a disk. It is a really cool video about what we are doing when we travel and what I do in Hebrew school. Jacob hates, well, not hates, but doesn't like going to Hebrew school. It's not his thing, you know. Or do you not know; at all??
The End
I hope you have enjoyed my little up date and I will be writing the next time my jeans fall from the sky and the earth splits in half! Kidding!!!!! I hope we all have had or are having a nice peaceful Sunday and see you next Sunday when I'm in Boston and the sky is falling! And Abby Elmore is laughing so hard, she is about to pee in her pants!!
Thank you all for joining me for Channel 4 News and have a good night!
Love,
Goldie Davoudgoleh
P.S. The Channel 4 News thing is from my Super Fourth Assembly that I will be performing Friday morning in front of the whole entire (except the sick people)fourth grade and the thing about Abby Elmore and the pee in the pants thing is true. Bye!

Motor and More!
This isn't a journal entry; this is just an up-date on the things we have been doing in the past couple of weeks when I was too busy to write.
First, How was everybodys thanksgiving? Mine was great. The Racquet Club had a fabulous thanksgiving feast at one of their restaurants with turkey, stuffing, salad, different kinds of fish, and rice. We invited my moms friend to come with us too; my mom felt really comforted when she heard yes from her friend because she was home sick during that week. She was missing going to my grandma's house and seeing her whole family there. Anyways, everything was supper-dupper good and I hope everbody everywhere who is checking my blog had a great thanksgiving too!(to email me back(who ever doesn't have my email), here's my number: goldiejune2000@yahoo.com)
Second,it was my dads birthday last Friday! We didn't give him much stuff, but we gave him lots of love.
Everybody sing with me!: Happy Birthday to you!(chachacha)Happy Birthday to you!(chachacha) Happy Birthday to Ira/Daddy!(chachacha) Happy Birthday to you!(chachacha oolalah!)
Third, guess what we got my dad for his b-day?
(email address above)
I'll tell after I get three to five answers from three to five different people.
(The title gives you a clue and picture gives a clue)
Fourth, I'm already getting ready for Hanukkah! My mom is trying to get me UGGS, my grandma is trying to get me American Girl things and books and I've given my dad recemendations on things I want. My UGGS are either going to be light-ish blue or pink. We looked online and there was a color called Mink. It was like a dark pink-ish purple-ish color in the picture.
Fifth, My class is trying to read 800 books and we're SO close. Only 40 left! That means we've read...drum-roll please...760 books! YEAH!! I have almost read 28. This kid in my class has read more than 100 books this year!

My...skirt...is...made!
Dear Journal,
I had a skirt made and it's beautiful!!! I love it!! It's a tad longer than my other jean skirt; and a tad darker in color, too. Me and my dad went to a Tailor and they said one week, but when we went there the next Saturday, it still wasn't ready. So a couple of days later, my mom went and pick it up for me. When I came off the bus, she said she had a surprise for me. When we got home I asked her where was it was. She said it was on bed. I ran to my room and POOF! The skirt was sitting on my bed, right, exactly where my mom said it was.
"My SKIRT!! Yeah!" I screamed it really loud and gave a screech.
And that's the story of my skirt.
Le Fin = The End
By Goldie Davoudgoleh
P.S. I know it is kind-of short but that's all I can say about my skirt I had made. You'll have to wait and see it in February. Did I mention we were coming in February? Well, that's a different story.
Bye!
