Interesting weeked

My Dad and I went to a very cool Bikers for Christ convention on Friday, September 25, 2009 in Raleigh. During the event my dad and I walked around and saw some cool bikes. One of the bikes was designed like a dragon. The kick stand was similar to a dragon's foot. The front of the bike resembled a dragon's face. The bike was painted green, the same as a dragon. The event was very interesting because I met some friendly people. I even met a man that had the same nickname as me. I also saw something I have never seen before. I saw a race car! I also saw a very funny thing. What I saw was a boy talking like a girl. That was a very, very awesome weekend with dad!

The Interesting Party

My family, aunts, uncles, cousins, and I went to the zoo for my cousin Jaedon's birthday. We went on Saturday, September 19, 2009. During Jaedon's birthday, we ate, we played, and saw some animals. It was very interesting because I saw animals I have never seen before. It was very funny because some animals were doing interesting things. They were putting mud on themselves. It was the coolest day ever!

All About Me

My name is Yosef. I was born on May 15, 1996 in Ethiopia. I lived in a small house with my Mom and Grandmother for five years. Then my mom had another baby named Mihret. So now I lived with my Mom, Grandmother, and little sister Mihret. When I was about nine years old, my mother died from HIV/AIDS. That was the saddest day of my life. After about eight months, my grandmother sent us to an orphanage because she was too old to take care of us. We stayed in an orphanage for about two years. While we were in the orphanage, we met many friendly people who took care of my sister and me. After two years, I got adopted by a blessed family who had one son and one daughter. So that means I have one brother and two sisters now. Now I have lived in North Carolina for over two years.

I like playing soccer and going fishing. My favorite subject in school is Math because I am very good at it. I passed my Math End of Grade Test my very first year in America. I want to be a soccer player when I grow up because I am good at it and it is an easy sport for me. I think it is easy for me because it is a gift from God.

This is me running to kick the soccer ball during a game.
