yo,
so i was reading last week – i think – a few things…
“memoirs of a teenage amnesiac” – really good book – sort of twilight-ish at times with one of the characters – wasn’t as predictable as i thought it was going to be – enjoyed thinking about how i’d be if i suddenly couldn’t remember the last four years of my life
“the penultimate peril” and “the end” – wrapped up the baudelaires – i’d forgotten much of the final book – enjoyed the tie-in to “the tempest” – would love to see more books come out that are tied to that series
“still growing” – teenage star kirk cameron’s biography – he was a star on a show, “growing pains,” i watched growing up – enjoyed reading about him – and his sister – who was in full house – which i watch with my sister now on re-runs on sunday mornings
other things – i learned that the iceland volcano thing was big b/c volcanic ash can shut down airplane engines – never a good things – macarthur was an idiot and that’s why truman got rid of him in the korean war – and hilary clinton is taking a more active role now as secretary of state – and i finished colossians this morning
hope your week of journal writing is fun
sincerely,
dr mafeld
Hey I’m going to do one blog today because I’m sore from football practice and I have a baseball game tomorrow. I left off in Maximum Ride where they where all picking strawberries when all of a sudden Erasers jump out of the sky and starts to beat everybody up. Max does the best att fighting while Gasman is jumped, Nudge hits her head on a tree, and Angel is put into a bag. Shen tries to get up from being knocked down but is hit in the back hard. She turns around to see an Eraser staring down at her. It turns out that the Eraser is there dead parents son. DUH-DUH-DUH-DUH. They wake up and everybody is in a little room except for Angel. Everybody asks if she is fine and she says yes. Then she looks out the small window and sees a truck pull up and detects that Angel is in it. She tells her family that they must save her before and doctors do experiments on her.DUH-DUH-DUH-DUH
Monday-
I started reading The Lucky One by Nick Sparks, it’s very good. The author’s purpose of this book is to entertain. He does this by relating to the small town person in all of us. He uses words like ‘y’all’ and ‘ain’t’ in his characters dialogue, which makes you feel a stronger connection with the characters. Also, most of his characters are round, and they change in the end. My prediction is that Beth & Logan will change, and no one else; only because they seem to be the main characters.
Tuesday-
Ransom Note:
Dear Thighbault,
I don’t care who you are, or who you think you are, actually. Beth is mine. She is my ex-wife and it is my duty to watch after her, so I don’t know WHO you think you are coming into town, stealing my camera, and slashing my tires, then trying to get my ex-wife. Well I can tell you one thing buddy, you are in for a rude awakening if you think for one second that I’m gonna just give you Beth.
– Keith Clayton
Wednesday-
At this point noone of the main characters are really facing any conflict, except that Logan makes Beth very uncomfortable. Its because when he saw her, he realized she was much prettier than in the picture, and it stunned him. Beth & Nana can both tell he’s hiding something, just by the way he talks. They just can’t figure out what.
Thursday-
Right now, Logan jsut applied for a job at the kennel, where Beth works, and is training dogs with Nana. He just bought a house so that he could get all settled in. Beth doesn’t like it whenever Ben is around Logan, because she considers him a stranger. But Zeus likes Ben, and Logan likes Ben, and Ben seems to like both of them.
I am blogging on a new book for Monday, Where Trouble Sleeps, by Clyde Edgerton.
Monday
In the book Where Trouble Sleeps at the beginning Stephen, the protagonist or main character is taken to see the electric chair to see what happens when you do something bad. This is also a basic visit to prison. They describe it as a stool with straps on it to hold the prisoner to the chair and actually shock the person who is getting shocked. That is all that i have read tonight.
🙂 🙁 😛 😀 😉
I am reading… or at least rereading the book Maximum Ride School’s Out Forever in itthe flock is headed toward Washington, D.C., where they hope to find the answers to their origins. However, after Fang is gravely injured by an awoken from the dead, flying Eraser Ari and taken to a hospital, the flock is taken in by an FBI agent named Anne on the agreement that she is allowed to examine them. The flock enjoys a rare period of peace, but there are sinister things at work in the background. A major multinational corporation named Itexicon (Itex) is plotting to destroy the world, based on what Angel overhead when she was kidnapped back at the lab, and is also tracking down the flock’s movements. Anne reveals herself as the leader of the lab that created the flock and seeks to recapture them. Furthermore, Max must face her worst adversary yet–her own clone.
The flock is headed toward D.C, when Ari returns from the dead, and injures Fang. He is immediately taken to a hospital where the flock meets an FBI agent named Anne. She decides to take the flock with her on the agreement that she is allowed to examine them. So, after spending a couple of weeks at her house, Anne enrolls the flock into a school. They go to school and Fang meets a girl, that Max calls The Red Haired Wonder, and he immediately falls for her. Max later finds him kissing her in a classroom and she finds out that she actually has feelings for Fang. Max then gets asked out on a date, Fang gets jealous. Then, after everything seems perfect, the principal of the school turns out to be a bad guy and the flock is on the run yet again. When they fly back, literally, they find Anne screaming at Ari. Max flies down and finds out that Anne is working for Itex. So they grab Total and fly away. The Flock goes to the Itex headquarter and Max is at the School in a isolatment unit where she had futher on in the story been kisnapped by Erasers and replaces with an identicle copy of the original Max. It ends in a battle of the Maxes were the original Max declares that she is stronger than the other Max for not killing her and then when Gazzy says duck she knows instantly to duck for he had skills in the arts of bomb making and vantriliqiusm( not very sure how to spell that at all!) then it ends up a whole in the wall with everyone ok except the white coats… all except for Jeb who if he died there wouldn’t be any action in the story now would there. Thst is it for this blog. Peace. 😉 🙂 😛 8)
Hey this one is not going to be as long as a usual blog because we had are first real football practice and had a baseball game which we one! So as you can tell I need sleep. I’m going to blog about Beowulf that we read in your class which was ewally cool. Sorry, I didnt get to read tonight. So we started at the end when Beowulf is going off to fight Gretel and is prepared to die. He goes to the entrance of the cave and tells his troops to stay at the front of the cave and he has to fight by himself. He goes in there with his sword and meets his first victim. He swings hard at its hard scaly body, but his sword shattered. This didn’t look to pretty for Beo wulf. Mean while outside the cave……. A soon to be warrior, Wiglaf, tells the army how they are cowards and won’t help there own king fight. He goes in there right when Beowulf is bitten by one of the monstors. He goes in there and watches Beowulf die. He gets mad and finally slays the monstor.
hey mr mayfield waz up or down or in the middle 😛 😛 😛
so i am still reading 39 clues the maze of bones 😮
so far i have read dan was trying to get some information but he was doing it very pitifully so the he turned his head to his sister *amy* and yelled jonah like a dang idiot
so then amy snatched him by the hair and dragged him behind the mozart family’s harpsichord then they cowered and barley daring to breath because they almost got caught because they were in a place where they were not suppose to be.
there were two guards one had a normal accent the other one had a italian accent
bye 😛 😀 🙂 🙁 😮 :v 8)
still reading mocking bird. well i think the way this story relates to confilict is the way so far the planning of the party is going becasue the cant decide weather which theme to do. another thing is the way that scout is being the nice guy of the friends and tht none of his friends are showing the same respect back so that could be a big problem in the way of the relationship.
OK I just finished FB practice along with Maximum Ride: Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports and in the third installment of the Maximum Ride series, Max is faced with the task of saving the world from the Itex corporation and the evil Director, who wants to terminate all recombinant DNA life-forms and cut the population of the earth by half. The Erasers were some of the first to be destroyed and have been replaced by the new threat of Flyboys (robotic Erasers that can fly). Further issues arise when Max invites Ari—the single remaining Eraser—to join the group, leaving Fang and half of the flock to split off in protest, with Max the leader of one group, and Fang the leader of the second. And in the midst of all this, Max eventually finds out who her real parents are. But she is stuck at a castle, fighting. Max beats off Omega (a thing that is seemingly perfect). As they are fighting they notice how helpful Fang’s blog could be. As the end of the story nears Max and Fang promise never to split up again. So there is obviously 😉 NOTHING 😉 going on there with Max and Fang so untill next blog. Peace. 😉 :{) 🙂 😛 8)
Monday
hey mr mayfield. i found out kirk cameron and his sis, being honest i thought it was dj to begin with. anyway as i hinted on last week leven thumps and the gateway to foo is much like peter and the starcatchers. it has a main charater boy who has little to no family. he finds a fairy/gremiln mix thing and saves what he needs save by doing what needs to be done which is also a charateristic in most books of this genre.
Tuesday
hey hows it goin, spring training is fun hows your spring traning? i did well in the dash, evididently very well, i beat people who usually beat me by a landslide. i guess im just used to running under mor pressure than they r. anywho i skipped one part when i was catching u up on the story, antsel was planting the seed then he was attacking by hundreds of black moaning shadow monsters sent by Sabine whowants the seed very badly. so antsel dies a slow death, well maybe a sort of quick death, but anyway his heart cant take the pressure so his heart beats to fast and he dies. there i filled in the gap.
this the earliest ive ever done my blogs. :). still reading going bovine and now football practice has started. im am so close to finishing that i want it done now.
genre slip
dear gonzo,
i admire you for being so brave to go on i double dog dare you( a torturing game show). the last thing that they had they stuck a dynamite up its butt and blew it up. youre a dwarf, not being sizest, and you afraid of dying from hugging a teddy bear. i think what dulcie ment when you were gonna get something from the trip, i think that she ment you would actually gain some courage. you dont know it yet but everyone can see it.
Okay, so still blogging on Shiver-which i recomend….
Mon.- Okay well-hmmm-last week i left off where i was talking about his parents tried to kill him. (what lovely parents) so, i was going to tell you about the medow/wood scene. he took grace to the meadow to show her where he loved to come. well, they were supposed to kiss here, and of course, sam didn’t kiss her and she actually said ‘you were suposed to kiss me’ and he was like ‘yeah, i’m trying to get this right.’ it was comical *sigh*
Tues.- When they were in the wood/meadow scene sam had a flashback about when he was in the woods once. he had this neighbor who had these dogs that killed people. yeah, kind dogs-i need one- so he was really scared of them at first, but then he kind of wanted to meet them. so he never got to because his dad told him no. well, one day he was back in the woods and he heard this noise….. what is it? oh no! 😀
Wed.- So when he heard this noise he ran to go see what it was. (i would of run away, but you know-boys) 🙂 he finds that it’s one of the dudes he lives with during the summer and he really freaks out. his dad had taught him how to fight and he goes up to the…. guard dog from the dude next door!!! so he’s trying to eat his friend and sam kills him and then his dad comes up and finishes the dog off to make sure his dead.. then he finds out that it was the girl he lives with (aka white wolf chick) who opened the gate to let the dogs out. (she isn’t very kind, no no no)
Okay, well, my blogs for this week. bye 8) 😀 🙂 😛
I am still reading Where Trouble Sleeps by Clyde Edgerton. I still don’t know hoe the title fits the book but still I have no clue.
Wednesday.
I have figured out that Alease is Stephen’s mother and that Harvey is Stephen’s dad. Stephen’s crazy drunk uncle’s name is Raleigh. Also Raleigh got drunk and went to Stephen’s house and had to go to the bathroom. Harvey took him there he fell backwards and pulled the medicine cabinet off the wall. The cabinet hit the mirror and knocked it off. The mirror broke and fell on the floor. June Oden came over and helped clean it up. That is my blog for tonight.
🙂 🙁 😛 😀 😉
Wednesday
hey mr mayfield to wrap up Amelia has swapped babies and given the one to help leven thumps, the hero , on his quest to save the earth. she took the other baby and ran of course she was in an invisability cloak so she didn’t have to. anyways the baby from foo has all her knowledgefrom before she was turned into a baby- i guess that’s what happened- up until an hour so when the nurse says “Will you be okay?” because her mom has only smiled twice, refused to hold her own daughter, and is very ugly. she says”I’ll be fine.” Later
dear mr. mayfield
first of all wus up. second nice play on words , you know your title. ok well any ways i have now finished the book goose bumps series two-thousand. now she has killed the cat rip not 1 not 2 but 3 times. It ended with allison and her best friend ryan being chased down by rip and a gang of dead cat’s ghost. when life was fixing to be taken and used as rips own. ryan came running down the stairs like an idiot after he even so the ghosts and rip.
but now he was trying to pull some kind of romeo and juliet thing by saveing her life. but she had already been scratched by rip so he could not do anything to save her. then when he got down there to help her he started acting all casual and started just talking to her as if nothing was going on. then rip attacked ryan and scratched him all the way down his arm. crystal’s mom told her that every time you get scratched you become a little bit more like him. allison just randomly found a toy mouse and through it at rip this made the ghost cats attack it and they trampled and killed him for good because he used up all nine of his lifes.
then in the last paragraph of this book after they both had been scratched her dad cut the grass and ryan saw a field mouse jumped to his knees and grabbed it with his mouth and then allison and him started arguing over who was going to get the mouse. so yeah the story ended pretty wierd.
ps: I am going to count that as one of my journals this even though this took more than twenty minutes to type. oh and yester day momma mayfield was awsome . see ya tommorrow.
Hey everybody I’m going to blog on Maximum Ride. I had football practice today and I’m worn out!! I also just got back from church. So we left off where they where all out side picking strawberries when the Erasers come out of the sky and the Erasers beat them up. When they all wake up they are in jail cells and Angel is missing. She looks outside to find out that Angel is in the truck outside and they need to stop them before they do experiments on her. They rip ouut of the cell with great strength. As they all fly in a tight formation, Fang picks up a dead tree limb and drops it on the trucks windshield. it swerves and the wind shield rolls down. A gun points out of the car and starts to shoot. Fang grabs another limb and drops it on the windshield again. This time the truck swerves in the mud. They notice that they where going to take Angel on a chopper that was 20 yards away from them. Fang gives her a nod and she flies off to save Angel.
hey mr mayfield hi what is your name yeah i am talking to you
well i am still reading 39 clues one false note
so far i have read that a panel of wall sweeping back and forth and because of that they could see the plexiglas chamber which was filled with water and with a loud thrumming noise it was all sucked away as it was opened the air tight hatch hissed as it opened
but they *Amy and dan* thought it was a trap and by that they thought it was a deadly one at that but with evil dudes running torddes them on both sides
so they had to climb up the latter with dan going first while amy was motivating them so they would not get caught
p.s dan was thinking (where did all of this water come from)
bye
😛 🙂 🙁 😀 8) 😮 ;\
8-D 😯 😀 :-?? :3
hi it is me again
i am still reading the same book
now i have read that amy was very very very very confident that Jonah and janus would show up any second now but it was to late for them because dan light up the gas and launched them up in the air soon as jonah and janus boat arrived
and out of luck dan and amy landed on the bow of the boat :O
so then they started to navigate through the grand canal
sorry i have to go
bye
Thursday
yo mr mayfield ive been readin’ another book called house of the scorpion. it has change because the drug lord has been changed because he has a clone and loves his clone liky himself-which it is. Another is everyone tries to change from the drug lord being in power to the people over-throwing the “crown”. The people mostly trying to over-throw the “crown” are his power hungry family who will do anything for power a.k.a. power hungry. that is why i think house of the scorpions has our class theme; change.
I am reading Where Trouble Sleeps by Clyde Edgerton.I have figured out the reason that the title plays into the story.
Thursday
Like i said I have found out where the title comes into the story. The title is called Where Trouble Sleeps because Train, the owner of Train’s Place owns a dog named Trouble. Trouble can predict weather. The way he can predict it is where he sleeps. If he sleeps inside it is going to rain. If he sleeps out side then it is going to rain. That is what I have found today.
🙂 🙁 😛 😀 😉
In the book Maximum Ride: The Final Warning Max and the flock hold a funeral for Ari, Max’s half-brother, and Jeb’s son. After that they go to a meeting with the American government who are trying to decide what would be best for the flock. This meeting does not go smoothly and ends with the flock flying away to Dr. Martinez’s home where they are currently staying. But then are forced to leave when an unexpected bomb in the form of a pizza arrives at their doorstep shortly after attending the government meeting. They flee to a safer place and there Max is thrown into a world of longing and confusion as she is kissed by Fang for the second time. Because Max runs from him, afraid to display her feelings, the atmosphere between the two grows cold and unfriendly.
Max and the flock are asked to go on a special mission – all the way to Antarctica. They agree and are more than shocked when they get there at just how cold it is there. The point of the mission was to record data on how the world was changing due to global warming and pollution. The flock meet up with a crew there including a young, pretty scientist named Brigid Dwyer, who immediately takes a liking to Fang, much to Max’s growing jealousy. Certain members of the flock gain more skills – Iggy can feel colors, Nudge can attract metal, Gazzy develops a way to release almost toxic gas, Fang gains the ability to blend in with his surroundings and Angel gets yet another skill – she can change her appearance. Plus Total, Angel’s talking dog, grows wings.
While in Antarctica a member of the research team is attacked by a leopard seal and killed, only the flock find later that she is an imposter. A mechanical imposter created by some unknown enemies. Max and Fang’s relationship gets steadily more and more strained and the flock faces big problems when Angel goes to find a baby penguin in the middle of the blizzard and they are captured by a big group of genetically enhanced beings. The unknown enemy suddenly becomes known. The flock must face the inhuman, emotionless Uber-Director, whilst trying to escape a hurricane. They manage to defeat the Uber-Director, who falls to a messy but quick death in the midst of the storm. The flock is offered the opportunity to attend a school, but they turn down the offer and fly off into the distance.
So there is that Western Ending with the ride in the distance, Peace. 😉 🙂 😛 8)

Hey Mr.Mayfield I’m going to do my last blog for this week on Maximum Ride. We left off where the Erasers came and beat the whole family up. After that they figure out that they are outside and Angel is missing. She comes up with a plan to save her. They fly of and Fang drops a dead limp on the windshield of the Truck holding Angel. A few seconds later guns point out at them and start to shoot. The Erasers get out of the truck and carry Angel to a chopper 20 feet away. They chase after them and they start to take off with her. Max jumps up and spreads her wing. She grabs the railing of it. Ari there old parents son points his rifle at her. She releases from the chopper and falls. She gets to the ground with her family around her. She tells them planB and takes off for the chopper. She gets to a tall tree and stands on the tall part of the tree. She looks for the chopper but it is no where in sight. She gets really mad and starts to beat a tree with her bare fists. When she’s done she flies back to her siblings and tells them all the plan. They all fly back home.
finally finished mossflower. it was the prequel to redwall, and since i’ve already read redwall, i’m reading mattimeo which is the sequel to redwall. i’ve only read about 50 pages today but i’ll finish off the summary for mossflower and then i’ll start on mattimeo.
alright. when martin and all his crew escaped on the ship from salamandastron, the oar slaves (the people who work the oars under the deck) are freed. they are mostly squirrels, mice, and shrews. one of the mice, timballisto, is one of martin’s best friends and they have finally been reunited. all of the shrews were once under Log-a-Logs command, and now they are under his command again. they go back to mossflower and they anchor the ship right where the flood tunnels are. they get on shore and meet up with the corim. martin decides to take all of the leaders with him to kotir to make a deal with tsarmina. when they get there, tsarmina sees martin in full armor and with a new sword. martin tells her that if she doesnt want kotir to be destroyed, then she can leave before sunset and none of her soldiers will be harmed. tsarmina, noticing that all of the opposition’s leaders are right there, sends her archers to get ready. when martin is done making his statement, she tells the archers to come out. martin is not surprised, and he tells tsarmina that there are squirrels, hares, moles, and shrews in the treetops with weapons pointing right at her. she fumbles along until she finds her own set of bows and arrows and shoots martin in the side. he is unharmed, and still stands. he finalizes his offer and leaves.
back at brockhall, they are tending to martins wound. he tells them to stop and get ready for his master plan.
they all go to where the ship is anchored and tell the otters that are protecting it to sink it. When they do, the clog forces water into the flood tunnels. The water goes pouring into the kotir castle, and it starts flooding. back in the woods, timballisto is shooting off boulders at kotir with a catapult he calls a ballista because he made it himself. tsarmina is aurprised by the attack, and the roof of kotir starts crumbling in. the castle keeps flooding, and the boulders keep hitting until the whole place is in ruins. as the woodlanders fish kotir soldiers from the newly-formed lake, martin spots tsarmina swimming off on a table. he hobbles over as fast as he can on his hurt side, and faces tsarmina. they go through an epic battle, and at the end they are both badly wounded. martin keeps walking toward tsarmina, who is now down on her knees backing up. he keeps walking until tsarmina notices she is in deep water, and she drowns. martin collapses under exhaustion and doesnt move.
the woodlanders notice that martin is gone, and they go looking for him. they find him limp, but barely breathing. he is whispering to boar the fighter about the fight. bella has to run a very long journey to where gingivere and his wife are to get abbess, the healer mouse. she ties abbess to her back and runs all the way back. abbess gets there just in time to save martins life.
a few days later, martin awakes to a victory party. gonff has married columbine; and the woodlanders have let the soldiers loose and banned them from mossflower.
then the book goes into the near future, and there is a knock on bella’s door. gonff, the son of gonff and columbine has come to get his son. back at salamandastron, a new badger by the name of sunflash has arrived. the hares that stayed instead of going to mossflower introduce themselves. sunflash says he is the son of bella of brockhall and he is a traveler. the hares say that it is written that he would come and be the ruler of salamandastron. they all walk into the cave. then the book ends.
mattimeo- slagar the fox has been injured by redwall abbey warriors and he is seeking revenge. he has sent vitch, a rat, off to redwall to pose as a newcomer. mattimeo gets in a fight with him, and they both get in trouble. so far, mattimeo is just a trouble making mouse who has to try to live up to his father’s name, Matthias. slagar is at the church outside of redwall hiding out until the time comes to attack
mom heard a noise, i had to shut off the mac so she could figure it out 😛
okay, so giant flying partying statues take them to san fransisco, they catch a smelly fat hobo/son of poseidon (had to look up how to spell that 😛 ) he jumps in the water, tries do drown undrownable percy, gives up, and tells them that the MONSTER they are looking for is close. he leaves, the MONSTER that percy freed (aka bessie). grover speaks to bessie, and learns that she’s actually a dude, and an Ophiotaurus (sea cow thingymajigger). they go to zoe’s old pad, the garden of hesperides (i think that’s right. hmm) a dragon named ladon bites zoe and poisons her. atlas (titan who must hold up the sky, dad of zoe) forces the curse upon luke, who forces it on annabeth, from which artemis takes from her. huge battle, percy holds sky, atlas tackles percy, accidentally taking the sky from him. luke falls off a cliff, but survives (Dang!). zoe dies from her poisoning, artemis turns her into a constellation. they go to mt olypus, where they vote on how to kill percy. he lives, but bessie must die. Poseidon gets Hephatitus’s help to build an aquarium to store bessie, he lives. athena doesn’t like percy liking annabeth. poseidon reveals luke lived, great book. ttyl
Monday
I have been reading Number the stars. It is very interesting book. A summary of what I read is that at her uncles house. They are getting everybody on the boats and Ann Marie and Cirtsti are the only ones left in the house. when Ann Marie wakes up in the morning she is worried because her mothr had not returned to the house. She walks over to the window and she looks outside. she sees a blurry object in the path and she wipes her eyes. She looks again and notices that it is her mother laying in the middle of the path. she runs outside and her mother is ok!
Tuesday
I think the author’s purpose is to entertain and to inform because the book tells you about what it was like in world war 2. So its realistic fiction. The book tells facts, yet it is very interesting at the same time. I like books that are not all facts, but I don,t like that many books without facts.
Wednesday
I think the book relates to change because Ann Marie changes throughout the book. Her friend Elen also has to change her jewish act and start to act like normal people, otherwise the nazis will kill her. Thats way she is hiding at Ann Maries house.
Thursday
This book is like another book I read, called life on the plains. They are alike because they are both based in the 1940s and both of them are about war. One is about a boy and one is about a girl. both books are really good. bye
Monday-on the ones I gave you monday 🙂
Tuesday-
I am reading The Rescue. The name really does fit the book, because the main characters-Taylor and Denise-really do rescue each other. Taylor actually rescues Denise when she is stranded in her car after she swerves off the road. Denise, in return, rescues Taylor in a different sense. Taylor is a 30 something bachelor that has been lonely since high school. He never saw the need to date. But now, since all his buddies are starting to settle down, he wonders what it would be like loving someone. Then, he meets Denise.
Wednesday-
I think the authors purpose of this story is to entertain and to send the message that everything happens for a reason. Maybe God gave Denise Kyle because he knew that Kyle would make her stronger. Maybe Denise had that wreck so she could meet Taylor. Maybe Taylor’s dad died so he could realize how to be a father. This book has many lessons in it. To never give up is one. Denise works with Kyle’s language everyday and never gives up or quits when he cant say the words.
Thursday-
Denise is really starting to open up for Taylor. She tells him all about her struggles and her happy moments. She wants Taylor to do the same in return but doesnt know how to talk to him. Then, after experiencing a life or death situation when going on call, Taylor freaks and only wants to talk to one person. Which would be Denise. He finds comfort in her voice and the way she listens. She feels the same about Taylor which is kind of ironic that they both are falling for each other but dont tell one another. That would probably be a motif because that happens alot in stories and movies.
Dear Mr. Trini Roderigez,
We have captured several important files/people who are willing to go against you in court, as well as a warrant for you in the state of Florida for the killing of 12 innocents. If you turn yourself in, you may get time off. If you continue to run, we will add several years to the sentence for many different felonies, as well as any cops’ life that is lost because of you.
Signed,
The Entire Nation Law Enforcement
#2
The author’s purpose of the book, Reckless Abandon is to tell how law enforcement works, how to explain someone’s quest for want of excitement, and to explain a guy’s want of a woman and how far astray it leads him from his normal life. It also tells how some of the mafia works, and how they do business. And of course, like all fiction mystery books, it is meant to entertain the reader and make him/her buy more of the author’s books.
#3 There are quite the character’s in Reckless Abandon. For instance, you have a guy name Stone Barrington. He is an ex-military, ex-NYPD lawyer who is helping a “friend” track down a criminal from her( notice quotes around friend(: ) jurisdiction( area of control). The “friend”‘s name is Holly Barker, and she is police chief of Okinwa Beach in Florida. She is tracking down a mafia man who killed more then 2 dozen people, and more than a dozen at one time. The Mafia guy’s name if Trini Roderiguiz and he is pretty scary, almost killing Stone and Holly several times.
#4 Fact: Holly and Stone get kidnapped by Trini. He gets some men from the mafia to do it for him, all while he is working with the FBI to take down a Terrorist group who the mafia has been trading with. But then he messes up when he kills 2 FBI agents, which sets off a national search. All while Stone and Holly are stuck in this cellar type thing. But then, right before they are killed, an old friend and Don of a mafia, Don Eduardo, saves their lives.
Opinions: I think that Trini is the kind of guy that you dont want to mess with. And I definitely dont want to get in his way, or on his good side even cause he might like me too much then kill me. And if I were Stone and Holly, I would be thanking Eduardo for the rest of my life (which wouldnt have been very long if not for Eduardo).
Yayy!! The blog page worked this week:)!! My Chinese Followers won’t be mad at you again.. They Tweeted about that!! Sorry I missed Thursday, I had a fever and was flat out SICK! But I’m back now:)
Monday- Got a new book! Called “Sahara Special” The reason I got the book was b/c I thought it resembled me:) But I quickly figured out it didn’t!! So I saw the word special and was like OMGEE!! I can relate to this book… BUT….. No, the special the book was talking about is like Special Ed (sorry if thats offensive don’t know how else to put it) and even though people say that I’M NOT! (sorta) So I don’t relate to this book at all so far, which I won’t have the chance to finish it anyways b/c it was due Thursday and I got it MONDAY!!! But anyways not gonna live in the past..
Tuesday- About Sahara~ She’s like a very interesting person, because first to me when I hear the name I think of that girl off the move “Ring” b/c that freaky little girls name and the girl and the books name are the SAME! Sooo bad choice of a characters name. Sahara has some problems in school, she doesn’t quite understand whats going on, her and her mom get called into I guess the principle’s or who ever in the school keeps the school records… They start talking about how that Sahara doesn’t do her work and turns in incomplete work and the school thinks she should be put in the special needs class. Her mother AGREES!! and lets them place her in a class with only two people and the teacher,
Wednesday- As Sahara and her mom walk out of their office her mom ask if she will try in this class and Sahara’s like umm, noo promises. So in this SPecial Needs class all they pretty much do is ploay games and talk about things, but the person she’s in there with like not the teacher but the other student is a BADDD little kid!! He tells her all these crazy things and Sahara believes him!! Of course everything this Kid is Telling Sahara is getting back to her mom, and after like 3 weeks of this her mom gets MAADDD and has a little pow wow with the school people..
Thursday- Did the “Epic of Gilgamesh” Old Man storyy:)

Conflict
The conflict of the story where I am at now is between jecca and cameron. She has finally found him at the party house and is threatening to call their mom and dad and tell them whwhere he is. He has been on the run for a few weeks and everyone is making up stories about them being terrorists and crap. He’s all mad at her for even thinking about doing such a thing. But they make a deal. She will give him a days head start. By then he will be long gone. Resolution to the conflict between bro and sis. 🙂
