Cumbersome

You know about fat kids that are troublesome. Like bullies. So, cumbersome means troublesome and really hard to handle.Here are a few sentences:
1. Mostly they tend to be slow and cumbersome, and this is made worse when you're running inside a small virtualised OS.
2. That workaround is just not acceptable, its slow, cumbersome, and fools people when things change.
3. It was heavy and cumbersome, and she realized, in her unskilled hand, useless.
Ok, those were a few sentences. Today I need to go early to school because I'm going to The Academy of Sciences. I have to be at my school by 8:00. So, bye!

Culmination

Have you ever went hiking with your family, friends, or teachers? Have you went in front of them and bet them up to the  top. Well, that is what we call culminating.
It means : to be directly overhead
In astronomy it means : the culmination, at a given point, of a planet, star, constellation, etc. is the time within the diurnal motion when it appears on an observer's meridian.

So, I guess that's it for now. See you tomorrow!

Cubicle

So, you know what a cubicle is don't you? Here's some history: It was used in English as early as the 15th century. It eventually came to be used for small chambers of all sorts, and for small rooms or study spaces with divides which do not reach to the ceiling. Have you ever been to any of your parent's office and seen a cubicle?
It looks the same as how it's described here probably. If you have never been to any of your parent's office, look cubicle up on wikipedia. It will show you a few pictures of a cubicle. Ok? So, now that we have learnt about cubicle we can learn another word tomorrow.

Cryptography

Cipher machines were used to make cryptography. It was used to write secret codes. Many people used these during wars to send messages.
This is how a cipher machine looked like when it was used in World War II for encryption of very high-level general staff messages: It had many levers, pulleys, and other stuff like that. If you want to see the picture and other pictures of cipher machines, go to wikipedia. org.
Then, type in cryptography. Ok, bye! That's it!

Crestfallen

Once this boy in my class when I was in Fourth Grade... No names No names. We were doing P.E. We had this game where we had to jump over the cones. We all had to jump over the cones to get to the other side. Then, "the" boy was jumping over the cones and then his pants fell down. We laughed at him. He quickly put his pants back on. He told his friend that he wasn't crestfallen. But, I could tell by his red face that he was. Crestfallen was written all over his face.
                                                 The End.
This is an incident from school that happened. Not to me though.

Credulity

Guess what? Credulity means gullibility. Now, if you don't know what gullibility means, it means easily tricked. So, if you say to your young sibling like: Look, the police are going to atch and put you in jail if you don't listen.
If they think you're tricking them and they say No! That means they are not gullible. But, if they think you're telling the truth they are gullible. Ok so, I used gulible in every place I was supposed to use credulity. But' it's ok I guess. I'm sure you'd understand.

Craft

Have you been to an arts and crafts sale. Well, that's what craft is all about to me. I love to draw and would never sella great drawing of mine. Not even a craft that I made. I feel that art and crafts are  as precious as diamonds, and wouldn';t even trade the drawings I made MYSELF! That, would just be sad to me. I feel that everything I have has feelings. So, if I have to leave some thing behind that's mine or give it to an orphanage, it's a long struggle for my parents I guess! Ok, bye! I'm hungry to go to school!
