What A Day!
This is me, Cha’Risa.
Hello. My name is Cha’Risa, meaning elk. My favorite foods are deer and pheasants. The activity is dart the hoop, a game where you have to try to get a feather dart in a swinging buffalo bone hoop. I am nineteen, and I am turning twenty in five days. The tribe that I live in is the Abenaki tribe. One thing that happened yesterday was a storm. Yes, a storm. It was so harsh, it caused a flood that made us move from modern-day south Canada through modern-day Wisconsin to modern-day Missouri. Horrible, isn’t it? ☹. It was harder to find pheasants and turkey because we had moved and there was a scarcity of them there, since there was another tribe there that hunted mainly these animals. We had to hunt elk and fish, my least favorite foods. Later that day, we had a ritual with dancers celebrating the new sun and the change from spring to summer. After the ritual, we had pheasants and bird eggs for dinner. I was glad we could find pheasants. Once again, they are one of my favorite foods.It is past my curfew and I should be getting in bed. Good-bye.
