espn commercial breaks made for good red pyramid reading

peeps,
yo, it’s like another week – yo…

so i finished 20,000 leagues about thursday-ish this last week – it’s not nearly as classic-y as 80 days because there’s a ton of under the sea info that’s a bit TMI – but the character of captain nemo is pretty good – anyone psychotic enough to run a ship and wreck havoc on the high seas and yet cries at the drop of a hat is a pretty complex character

i started two books near the end of the week – haven’t finished them…

the maisel report – a book about college football written by a guy, ivan maisel, that i knew a bit when i was at bama – the book basically talks about the overrated, underrated college football teams, traditions, coaches, and such – the book came out two years ago so some of the material is dated (like he thought saban was overrated and that alabama was overrated because neither one had done much in 2007) but it’s an entertaining read – unlike…

red pyramid – a BOB book – not a fan – part of that is my fault – i’ve read part of the percy jackson series and this seems to be percy jackson in egypt – there’s also some eragon stuff in there where the words have power and magic drains you – again, all ideas that have been used before – so i’m struggling to get through the 500 pages – although i took the book to bryant denny last night and got about 50 pages read while espn was at commercial timeout (for those of you who’ve never been to a college game that’s televised, there’s an annoying guy in white with a red hat that steps onto the field at every commercial break – and cues the officials to restart the game – he’s like a God b/c of his power over the game continuing…)

do hope your reading is better

sincerely,
mafeld

  1. Yo, to you too Mr. Mayfield, yo! Loved your blog by the way, but Julie just told me on the phone that you are a lame-o for not liking red pyramid. Well, I for one have finished my book(playaway) and I would say that the ending was bad. -actually, it wasn’t like really bad, it says that it is book 1, so there has to be more!- I am just the kind of person that doesn’t like books to be broken down into more than one book- except for twilight!!!!!- Since I have finished my book(playaway), I will tell you how it ended.

    Okay, so I left off with Meg breaking the flags. Well on the news, they were showing the broken flags and Aiden saw and new that it was Meg. So he goes and tells the F.B.I agent but he doesn’t listen to Aiden. Well, later, this person said that they had seen Meg, but it was just a false alarm. It turns out that the kidnappers are holding Meg for ransom. How cruel right? So, they contact the Falconer parents and made Aiden give them-the kidnappers- $2,000. So that’s what Aiden did. Then, when Aiden had followed all of the directions that the kidnappers were giving him, the woman kidnapper-dressed as a clown in a parade- snatched the duffel-bag with the money in it and ran off. S Aiden chased after her, but once he caught her, she was holding a pistol against his chest. Then once again, the woman kidnapper was off, and Aiden couldn’t catch her. Then that’s when it ended!!!!! I am sooo going to have to get the next book if it’s in the library!!!

    Well I guess that’s all for today!!! I am super glad I blogged today. There wasn’t really anything else to do.
    Bye!!!!!

  2. Hey Everybody! Guess What??? OK i will tell you i went to the Alabama game on Saturday it was awesome Alabama Smashed Penn. State into the ground! It was a cool game though. I have been kinda crazy today so call me the……
    KOOKY KOALA (I think that one really fits me)
    OK Blog time Monday (I think it is monday not sure though)
    WEll i left off With the kids going in the waiting room and Count Olaf was the receptionist dressed as a woman who goes by Shirley so the children were scared and they got Klaus and they left but Something was wrong with Klaus again but they didnt know what it was so they go back to the mill and Violet figures out that the optometrist and Count olaf were using Hypnotism to get Klaus to do terrible things and that was why he had been acting so weird. So the kids right now are trying to find a way to fix him and SADLY that is where i left off at…
    Bye Everybody (Cant Wait to be a Hippie tomorrow) Luv, Julie or Jewels however you want to say it!!
    Bye

  3. I’ve been reading New Moon. This part of the book relates to change because Bella has changed how she feels. She now feels depressed and lonely. She is missing excitement in her life. Bella is missing Edward. Now instead of feeling depressed she feels pain. She feels hurt and abandoned. Charlie isn’t laid back anymore. He is now conserned about his daughter.
    Bella’s appearance has changed too. She is paler now, & b/c of her lack of sleep she now has purple circles under her eyes.
    Luv,
    Merritt
    PS. Edward is Ticking me off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:( 🙁 🙁

  4. Hey its madalyn again..

    I left off with when they are on the dock waiting on mr.poe….. I now start with, that the three Bauldilare children . Violet, Klaus, and Sunny are now meeting mr.poe at the dock right now as we speak. They are now , after the death of their nice and adventureous Uncle montgomey montgomery, the three of them are now haeding to their Aunt’s house in mr. poe’s car.. I will keep you up on their next visit or staying at their mysterious Aunt’s house..

  5. What’s up every body? I finished new moon‼ I LOVED it. I think it was sad and a little creepy but awesome and romantic at the same time!!!!!!!!!!!! I think that the book is alot like *Twillight* because Edward leaves and someone is tracking Bella, again. But, Edward leaves longer in this book than in *Twillight*, and Jacob is a little, no, alot more involved in this book. In what I’ve read in *Eclipes*, they are alot alike because Victoria is in it too, and so is Jacob. But, Edward and Jacob kind of get along in *Eclipes*, sort of. In *New Moon* I didn’t like the part where Edward leaves. It makes me sad. 🙁 I like it that they end up together again, though. ♥ Anyway, PEACE OUT‼ p.s. Julie, did you really watch the REAL Alabama game at the statium?!?!?!?! ☺☻♥♦♣♠•◘○◙

  6. Yeah, the man is a God, right Maf. I mean, not fair, he has all the power. Sometimes he does a really bad job. But reading at a football game is a no-no. If your a guy, go check out cheerleaders. If your a girl go check out the ugly football players with mad skills.

    Kay, so still gonna blog about Mockingjay because it is really good. Even though I’m reading The Roar, which I really like. (So no holding anything against me tommorow, Maf)

    Mockingjay

    Mon.- So we left off where Katniss kisses Peeta, sweet sweet victory.
    So yeah. Then they shot a lady, crawled in her house and saw on the TV where they were like setting off all the Pods. Yeah so now they are all dressed using her makeup to cover up, they walked down the street to a lady who sold fur undergarments??? (What in the world, it’s kinda creepy) 😛 Yeah, so now we are at her shop. Her name is Tigris, and she looks like a cat. Who knew? So she knows one of the people in her group and they get to stay in her dungeon thingy.

    Tues.- They got to stay in her dungeon thing and Katniss heard Peeta and Gale chattin it up at night.
    So they were all like
    P: Who’s she gonna end up with
    G: IDK
    P: I wish I knew who she was gonna live with
    G: Oh, I know that, she’s going to live with whoever she can’t stand to be without.
    So it was like a slap in the face for Gale. *HAHA!!!!* He just practically told Peeta she couldn’t live without him. Doesn’t he pay any attention!?
    Grrr. Maybe not. So she gets all worried and they stay in their little dungeon until….

    Wed.- So they are opening pods now that are closer and people are leaving to evacuate to other peoples houses. The houses are all going to be filled with people. Yeah so Katniss, Gale, Peeta and the crew set off, hoping to kill Snow, while they are the rebels come. So they are all ready, and they have to dodge all of these dead people. So they cross this street and the floor opens up from under them. Gale gets dragged into a appartment by peacekeepers, and Katniss makes it up. But what’s creepy is that she sees down in the pit of people, and black figures are walking around killing people that survived the fall. Which was very eerie to me. It reminded me of the Grim Reaper. *shiver* X(

    Thurs.- Katniss makes it the Pres. Snows’ mansion. She sees a handfull of capitol children filling up the square. Then, a hovercraft appears and they see parachutes, so they think they are safe. So then the rebel doctors go in, and she sees Prim, who is too old, unless Coin let her go. She saw the parachute too, and she grabbed one. Then they exploded.

    Okay, so I was really upset that Prim died, cause she was awesome.
    I aspire to be her. Haha, JK, I’m a saint.
    To Merritt- New Moon wasn’t great, but Edward is better in the end. He does everything for the good of Bella. 😉

    Alright, I have to go eat. Yum… 🙂
    Smiles,
    Kaitlin B (Saint)

  7. Hey tonight I am reading the sea kof monsters thanks for letting me borrow the book Mr.Mayfield. Now Grover has gotten into alot of trouble. He has been attracted to the golden fleece because he thinks it smells like pan the goddess of nature. Now Percy and his new friend Travis need to go and save grover. Right now Percy, Travis, and Annabeth are on a cruse ship and everyone on the ship is under a spell. Thats all I read. Got to go.

  8. I am reading The Red Pyramid a B.O.B. book. It is a good book but people say its Percy Jackson in Egypt. I didn’t read Percy Jackson so I can’t say.

    Monday:

    In The Red Pyramid right now, they are led into an ambush with Desjaridus leading it. Zia uses her magic to create a fire stream that hunts down its enemy but leaves the magician who summoned it powerless for twelve hours after. They are at a salsa factory with a monster chasing them and they trick her into drinking gallons and gallons of salsa until she passes out and turns back into a cow. They drive in a sixteen-wheeler to Phoenix and go to Set’s Pyramid- the Red Pyramid. That is all for today.

    🙂 🙁 😉 😛 😀 8:

  9. wuts up mayfield
    I wonder how many blogges you have had since you started this blogg site i am sure you have had over three thousand just in the past two years. well tonight during my reading in the book fear the night reppetto the main character is now showing some of his more intelligent side instead of just guessing blindly in the dark. how strange he is guessing in the dark and people are being killed in the dark. I can relate this to now days because one we have plenty of phsycopaths nowadays and now (some) people think that they know every thiing that their is to know about their job and really they are just completely blind about the subject so to speak. that sounds like owen. but anyways that is not just with young people adults are just as bad as children sometimes worse. w ell today i was not introduced to any new characters this is all i have for now so i will see you tommorrow. SSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEE YYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  10. Hey Mr. Mayfeild,

    Leah:

  11. Hey, I’m back and I just got back from football practice. I left off with book one of Series of Unfotunate Events Book number one but I finished the other 100 pages on friday and now I am on book number 2 so I’m kind’ve confused because i’m reading number 2 and I’m only halfway done with number one. Anyways I left off with the Bauldlaire children finding out their parents died and they have been living in the miserable home with Mr.Poe, his wife, and two abnoxious children. The day comes when they have finally found a relative close enough to them that they could live with him. The next day they pack up and drive at least five minutes to the street on which Count Olaf lives. They park in front of a beautiful house with nice scrubbed bricks and a clean porch. They walk up to the house thinking that it is the house they will live in when it really is the house of Justice Strauss, the nice judge who ive NEXTDOOR to Count Olaf. She says by and directs them next door to the ugly and dirty house of Count Olaf.

  12. Hola! Tonight is a bit of a weird night for me. It may be because tomorrow is Hippie Day!!!!(Go Hippie’s!!!!!) I am so exited, I may just form my own team just for Hippie Day. Team Hippie!!!!! Okay, now that is a little weird. 🙁 So anyway, I like just started another goosebumps book-Night of the Living Dummy- like 20 minutes ago but I kept getting interrupted while I was reading so I only got to chapter 3. I know I know, it is fairly sad, but I have learned a little bit about the book already. So hear it goes.

    Well so far, the 3 main characters are Lindy and Kris-twin sisters- and of course Slappy the Dummy. Slappy hasn’t really come alive yet- I have seen this episode and have read some of the other Living Dummy books. Plus the title kind of gives it away. LIVING Dummy. Hello?- but while Lindy and Kris were walking back from checking on the house that was being built next door, Lindy found the dummy in the dumpster and named him Slappy. So now Lindy wants to keep Slappy that way she can do ventriloquist acts for children.-by the way, Lindy and Kris are 12 years old-

    So that is all I have read so far, but I will most defiantly read and write(type) back tomorrow!!! Bye!!
    🙂 😉 😀

  13. hey mr mayfield
    right now i am reading pearls of lutra
    so far i have read sagitar sawfang was bigger than most searats he was lean and sinewy with a mean disposition
    whilst the rats under her command patrolled sampetras harbor and taverns
    while keeping order among the sea vermin
    sagitar leaned on a jetty station watching waveworms grow small on the eastern horizon bounded to mossflowers
    grasping for her trident haft resolutely and she allowed herself a grim smile of satisfaction
    bye 😛 🙂 🙁 😀 8) :G

  14. I am reading a book called “Sermon on the Mound”. It is a really good book and it talks about god and how baseball was created. IT is a really good book if you like baseball and are religious like i am. God had to create baseball, if only to reach me it says. I have to go catch the bus so bye.

  15. Tuesday:
    Mayfield, this is my very first time blogging but here goes well I’m still reading HUGE. In chapter 7 Melanie annouces that each camper and their roommate will do a Trust tumble Wil and her roomate April have to do the trust tumble together before Melanie tells them to Wil made a smart remark. When everyone was getting ready to do the trust tumble melanie calls Wil to the side and tells her that she needs to see her after the trust tumble is over in her office. When the trust tumble is over Wil goes to Melanies office and melanie tells her to have a seat when Wil sits down Melanie tells her that her behavior is not excseptable and that she is getting a demerit for her behavior not 5 seconds later Wil told Melaine that she didn’t care which of course got Wil another Demerit.

  16. Hello, instead of going to the dance I decided to take the day off and go sleep. So, I give a big shoutout to coach miller for giving us football players breaks. I left off where the three children move out of Mr.poes house and go to the other side of the city to a distant relatives house known as Count Olaf and they then learn that Count Olaf is her next door neighbor. They look next door to find the hideous and scary house of Count Olaf. They cautisouly head over to their new home where they find a huge eye on the front of the door which is used as a peep hole. They knock on the front door and a tall ,skinny, ugly man staring at them. Mr.Poe introduces them then leaves. His house is very dirty and old so the children aren’t really feeling at home. He takes them upstairs to their room.

  17. Hey its maddie again,
    I just read the rough faced girl.
    I think it is a great bookbecause in all the time when the youngest sister was treated awfully, her heart stayed sweet,kind and thoughtfull. I think the thing I think about most when I read this book is that it does not matter how you look on the outside. I know that the only thing that someone could love is just for you personality and just how much you care too for that other person.

  18. I’ve been reading new moon. It’s groovy! 😉 The author’s purpose for writing this section was to let us learn more about Jocob and how he feels about Bella. It also prroves that Jocob has a stronger stomach than Mike. 🙁 The purpose was also so we could see how much Bella misses Edward and how she wishes he were here. It tells us that Mike is jelous of Jacob. (big suprise) I think that her main reason for writing this section was to better introduce us to Jacob.
    Peace Out HIPPIES!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 😀 😀 😀
    luv
    Hippy Merritt 🙂

  19. wuts up mayfield .
    tnight while i was reading the book fear the night and tomight I was intrduced to a new character named reyals (these people have some wierd names, but very creative) they think that he might be the murder bcause he was a trained marine sniper and one accident ended his carrer and they thimk he might be trying to get revenge. the accident was that he accidentaly shot a little off target and hit the hostage instead of the abd guy. and he has his own sound proof room so they think that he might be set up in that room so the people around him do not hear him shooting but then it echoes off of the building so noone knows where it came from so i will let you know later if they convict him as the killer. PEACE

  20. After seeing a newspaper article addressed to children with special gifts, eleven-year old Reynie Muldoon goes to a center where he and many other children take a written test with many strange questions using to logic, bravery, etc. He is the only one in the room to pass this exam, and, after all the other children leave, he is invited to yet another center for more tests. He goes there the next day, and meets Rhonda, a girl who lost her only pencil for the test. Reynie breaks his pencil in half to give Rhonda to use, and Rhonda offers him the answers to the test they’re about to take. Reynie refuses this, and walks into the testing area. There, he and many other children sit in separated desks, each getting a test. All of the test questions are impossibly hard Reynie notices, some of the other children even start to cry. But Reynie realizes that each of the question’s answers have questions in different part of the tests that give the answers. Reynie realizes it is all just a big puzzle.

    Because of the skill he showed, Reynie together with three other children named George “Sticky” Washington, a boy with photographic memory, Kate Wetherall, a resourceful girl who ran away to the circus, and Constance Contraire, a stubborn little girl who likes to recite poems, is later invited to the home of Mr. Nicholas Benedict, who gives them all with a task to do. He tells them that by using messaging hidden in television a man named as the “Sender” can make people believe such things. One example of a hidden message is “The missing aren’t missing, they’ve only departed”. Benedict tells them that the one sending these messages is a Mr. Curtain, the principal of L.I.V.E. institute: a school on an island off the coast of their city of Stonetown.
    That is all for today. 😉 🙂 😮 😀 😛

  22. jsyk, i found a website about mayfield….http://www.shelbycountyreporter.com/2010/09/07/students-take-teachers%E2%80%99-words-to-heart/

    kk so i left off aftac at holly on a roid rage (hehehe) kk, so pov time! Butler hasnt been done yet.

    “This isn’t good. One spinning kick, one neck snap, and one bodyslam takes out 4 zombies. 4 out of 1000’s. Yay. Juliet climbs on my shoulders and I launch her onto the beam above us. She crawls on, I drop a smelly fat fan, and that mesmerizing fairy face keeps laughing. I’m taken underneath a wave of zombies as Juliet releases the winch that holds the screen up, letting it slam into the wall. It breaks the spell and I throw all the dazed people off of me. Juliet slips off the beam into my arms. For now, we are safe. But why did Artemis send me here without any reason? It seems he really has lost all his marbles (What?). I should go get him.”

    Butler is sent to mexico by artemis/orion. orten (mixed names ftw) and co. talk.

    author’s pupose to entertain and make $$$$$. They talk, and it’s revealed that a prisoner from holly’s past is controlling people with runes to break out. easy, bye!

  23. I finished Red Pyramid. It is a cool book but apparently exactly like Percy Jackson in Egypt.

    Tuesday:

    In the Climax of The Red Pyramid, Sadie, Carter, Zia, and Amos go to Set’s Red Pyramid in Camelback Mountain, Phoenix. They march into the Pyramid then Set’s spirit comes out of Amos and they find out Amos was possessed by Set. Sadie and Carter find a balance with Horus and Isis. A complete balance where Sadie and Isis are one and Carter and Horus are one. In this way they defeat Set. Sadie has the feather of Truth and Set’s secret name. She almost destroys him (being encouraged to do so by Isis in the process) but doesn’t finish, instead she puts him in the Duat and forces him to promise to never fight except for them. Sadie can control Set because she has his secret name. Osiris returns to his throne also. That’s is it for today.

    GO RED PYRAMID!!!! 🙂 🙁 😉 😛 8) 😀

  24. hey mr mayfield wuts up……………….
    so far i have read that the weather in the spring can change on a dime (like the example they used in the book) like a mind of an old mouse wife picking mushrooms
    and that morning the weather was so soft and fair and abbot durral decided to have their first spiring season party outdoors
    and poor durral 🙁 he spent most of that night in the kitchens cooking and baking with his friend higgle stump but higgle was one of the wine cellar keepers of the family stump but he wounded up in redwalls kitchen friar and once again durral was once a lowly kitchenmouse but now he is father abbot of all redwalls
    and the was a humble old man that never lost his passion of cooking
    bye 😛 🙂 🙁 😀 8)

  25. I am reading “Sermon on the Mound”. It is a really good book and i recommend this book to all the people that are religious and enjoy baseball. This book there is nothing really to write about except authors purpose and and some sentences i really liked in it. The anthers purpose is to more then likely tell about how God had to of create baseball. The author said “I would write about his two favorite subjects, God and baseball.” “God had to of crated baseball, if only to show the world He had not lost his touch.” Another one is ” The game belongs to God… so do we.” Those are some really good quote things i am not sure how i should call them. Thanks and bye.

  26. Hey im still on the sea of monsters. Tonight i am going to talk about change. One thing that has changed in this book is the setting. First percy is at his house then at his scool then camp half blood next he gets on some ships and then finally to the sea of monsters. Another thing that has changed is Percy’s family he finds out that a cyclops is his brother. The final thing that changes is how Percy feels about being poseidens son. He wonders if its an honer or a cruel joke. The reason he feels like this is because people make fun of him because his brother is a cyclops. Well time for bed bye.

  27. Hey everybody I was really busy yesterday and was out till at least 10:00 at night so there was no blogging last night yesterday I was a hippie but I looked Tacky too So i guess you could have called it Hacky day (well never mind it sounds like somebody throwing up) but you get the gist. So yesterday I was the…
    TACKY TARANTULA but today I really dont know what I was so I will be a Lemur Again but instead call me the
    LOST LEMUR!! haha
    So i have to blog for ten minutes I have a timer beside me so here goes!
    Tuesday and Wednesday
    I left off two days ago with The children trying to figure out how to fix Klaus Well Violet Figured out how she could fix Klaus Sort of there was a code word that somebody would say then that would enable the person who said it to control Klaus. Whoo! I dont know if that is how hypnotism really works but it says it right here in the book. So it is the middle of the night and Violet and Sunny are inside the Library with only 3 books in it but they are in there and they start hearing very strange noises and it was the sound of one of the machines but why was it going at night when everybody was supposed to be in bed? So Violet and Sunny go all the way to the building where the machine is and they see Klaus operating the machine and the Evil nasty Foreman is controling Klaus (Hint Hint) what on Earth was going on so Violet then looks over at the machine and tied to it is a man named Charles who I never told you about but in as little words as possible Charles was a good guy and he was about to die right before there eyes!! Oh no I think I might cry! JK!! but that was where I had left off on Tuesday so now I need to tell you what I read Today. OMG Get Ready!!
    Wednesday
    ok so we left off well you know where i left off cause if you have read this far then you should know what has happened unless you have Short Term Memory loss but you dont have that. SO Charles is tied up and is fixing to die and violet is trying to think of what the word is to uncontrol Klaus. She is Racking her brain for it but she cant find it in there. So Charles is Screaming and The Foreman is Screaming and Violet is Screaming and Sunny is Screaming and Count Olaf is screaming wait What Count olaf when did he get in there well he showed up somewhere cause it says so in the book. then the little Lightbulb in Violets head want off and she thought of what the word was and that was inordinate I dont know how Violet knew that but it says so in the book that she knew it. Sadly that is where I stopped and plus my timer just went off so bye Everybody
    Luv You all, Julie or jewels however you want to say it!!!

  28. I am reading The Roar a B.O.B. Book 🙂 I’m only 28 pages into it and so far it is not a very good book.

    Wednesday-

    In The Roar, the main character, Ellie, has been kidnapped from futuristic London, England. She has been taken to outer Space on an orbiting Space Station.
    There is also The Wall which is constructed around Northern Canada, Northern Russia, Northern Europe and Greenland. This wall was constructed to keep all animals out because in the past there was an animal plague that killed many people. London is in two-layers, a fancy layer on top and a poor flooded layer on bottom. The Thames is basically black mud and most of the apartments are gross and moldy. Most of the buildings in present-day London are flooded by now and only poor people live there. That is it for Wednesday.

    🙂 🙁 😉 😛 8) 😀

  29. Hey Mr. Mayfield, i did not write in my journal Monday so I am just going to blog for 10 minutes today YIPPEE :P. Anyways….. OK so in huge chapter 8 all the campers do not have to do exersizes and things because it is the Fourth of July. Melanie told April that she had a package in the lodge and that she could go get it after she finished talking to the campers.When she got in the lodge she saw where they had been setting up for the party they were having so far all they had out was some low fat (of course) blueberry,raspberry and plain yougart parfaits. So April keep going down the hall way until she gets to the mailroom and she tells the woman behind the counter her name and she gets her package. In her package she found some of her mom’s peanut butter chocolate bars and on top was a note her mom wrote in pretty cursive it said i am so proud of you!!
    Well that was fun. Now it is time for Church.

  30. I’ve been seeing double 😉 😉 and reading New Moon. If this part of the book was from the point of view of Edward we would know where he and his family moved and why they didn’t take Bella. We would also know how Edward really feels about her. We would also know more about his family and how they hunt. 🙁 We would also know all about Esma. Right now we don’t know anything about her.
    See ya Twins l8er!!!!! 🙂 🙂 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀

  31. im still reading gone of course. its a long book and the way im reading it doesnt look like ill be done this year. i read for an hour but i always read over the same page like three times. so this week i plan on doing my summary.

    from the beginning:
    one day, like any other, sam was at school learning. out of nowhere all of the adults in the world disappear. all students rush the hall in glee. within ten minutes theyre all freaking out. with no law all of the kids decide to rob all stores. sam, astrid, and quinn go in search of their parents. they soon find that they are all gone as well. sam goes last in the order of finding their parents and finds that his mom is gone too. he also finds that he has his own power to light things up. they travel to the plaza where all the kids in the city have gathered to not intentially find a leader. well when sam, astrid, and quinn get there the apartment buildings are on fire. sam, the hero of bus wreck, runs in with a group of strong, jock kids. once inside they ditch him and he has to save a child that is crying for her mom. when he gets inside the baby is shooting flames from her hands at sam. she misses one time, hits herself, dies. well when he gets outside astrid meets him outside and tells him that they need to find her brother. they go to the private school/ hotel to find her mom, where her brother might be. they get to the tennis court and there is a barrier blocking them from the outside. it is just the one town. that is as far as got today. toon in tomorrow, 7tth period, for my pov story of my fbi undercover homecoming investagator story

  32. Hello everybody!!! How are y’all doing today. If you are doing good then good, if you are doing great then great, but if you are doing awesome like I am then you are soooo awesome!!!!! The reason I have felt and been so awesome today is because today was Twin Day! Also, I’m really excited to blog because I get to blog for 10 whole minutes. Plus, since I didn’t get to blog last night( the reason for that is because I got home around 5:00 and had a lot of homework!) I get to blog even longer today! Well last time I blogged, I was only on chapter 3 in my goosebumps book, but now I am on chapter 12. So I am going to summarize what I have read so far.

    Well, in the last 9 chapters, there has been a little bit of change. So when Lindy started doing her ventriloquist act, Kris began to feel jealous of her sister. So she begs her parents to buy her a dummy and later, when Kris got home from school, there is another dummy sitting beside Slappy and Kris names her dummy Mr. Wood. So now Lindy and Kris both have dummies, but lately Mr. Wood has been acting a bit strange, like when he started calling Kris names, or when Kris and Lindy get back from school and they saw Slappy laying upside down and Mr. Wood laying over him, looking like he was strangling Slappy. But later on ,Lindy just got offered to perform on TV. And Kris has been offered to perform with Mr. Wood in the talent show. Well at the end of chapter 11, Kris gets up out of bed and accidentally wakes up Lindy, but she was just going to go and get some water when she screams.

    And that is how that chapter ends, so I really can’t wait to find out why Kris screamed. I’ll blog later!!!!!
    P.S Mr. Mayfield, this is my 3rd blog this week and even though this 1 was for 10 minutes, I still may blog again tomorrow!!!

  33. Read PJTLO (acronyms ftw) povs also ftw, Thalia Grace is a daughter of Zeus, and a Hunter of Artemis, 1st liutenat (Spelling errors ft… ah, you get it) She also sees the discussion between PJ and a Titan. Here goes…..

    “Why won’t this Titan guy shut up? Geez, he’s like a talking fountain. Wait, why is he reaching toward Percy? Why is Percy sweating and shivering? Is this some kind of joke? I hope this arrow hits the immortal in the mortal spot…. Oh, wait, he’s alright. That Ethan demigod is starting to freak me out. At last, we can leave! (At this point, Percy describes the dream the titan gave him of Luke (good guy gone bad), annabeth, and thailia at luke’s house, when his mom loses it and tells about lukes future.)……Weird……”

    K, so thats it for another journal, next imma do some comparisons. PJ and Alex Rider both save the world, but PJ does it with gods and alex with gadgets and MI6. Both wind up in a relationship with a complete mortal, but pj ends with a demigod (SPOILER).

  37. Hey, just got back from church. I left off with the orphans moving to the trashy house of Count Olaf where they will be spending the rest of their lives. They come to the front door and find the peep hole which is in the shape of an eye. He comes to the front door and Mr. Poe says good bye. They walk in and the whole house is a pile of junk. He led them upstairs to their room and let them stay in their. The room was horrible, it was one small matress laid on the floor, A refrigrater box for a closet, a pile of rocks to play with, and curtains balled up on the groundfor Sunny to sleep in. So it was pretty miserable for them. That night sunny slept in the curtains, Violet slep on the mattress, and Klaus slep on the hard floor.

  38. The point of view on “Sermon on the Mound” is the author is telling the reader that how God had to of create baseball. I can tell the author is probably religious. The author said,”It is difficult to ignore god when you’re flat on your back, seeing stars and counting angels.” I really thought about that that and it made perfect sense to me. This guy knows really good words to say when he talks about God. He said” While i was winding the rope around that ball and glove, attempting to shape a rudimentary tool to help me achieve whatever small goals and dreams I then understood God was doing the same. He just didn’t bother to mention that i was the tool he was shaping.” That all im going to right. BYE!!

  39. Yo Bananas! 😀 😀 😀

    4. Bella isn’t Edward’s girlfriend anymore. 🙁
    5. The Cullens moved. 🙁
    My time is passed over.
    SEE YA CRAZY BANANAS L8ER!!!! 🙂 😀 😀
    3. The Cullens moved.

  40. Hey Hey Hey!! I am so excited because I have finished the Miserable Mill I had totally forgotten how it ended I really dont like it that much it was ok I guess Today I am the

    Inordinate that is the secret word well Violet says Inordinate then tells Klaus to stop the machine then the Foreman Says inordinate start the machine then violet say inordinate stop the machine and well that went on for a while then Count olaf had to be smart and he says Inordiante dont listen to your sisters.
    Which made Klaus not listen to his sisters. so the machine kept going and charles got closer and closer to his death. FUN FUN FUN FUN!!
    Well Violet runs to try and push Charles off of the track that is leading him to his death but the foreman grabs Violet and she cant save Charles well Sunny goes over to Count olaf and she bites his leg and then they get into a sword fight and while that is going on Klaus has managed to try and stop charles well he gets a hook and gum and he somehow manages to save charles which is a good thing and lets just say count olaf got away and his partners and now the kids are going off to boarding school The End
    Now I have to go Bye all my G.T. Friends
    Luv Julie or Jewels however you want to say it!!

  41. Hola!!!!! I am almost done with *Eclipes*. It is awsome!!!!!!!!! I am in Love with it!!!! J.K. The book is about Bella and Edward, and Jacob, DUH!!! This time Victoria creates an armie of new born vampires, and they’re after Bella. ( She has REALLY bad luck ) But the Cullens and the werewolfs join forces to defeate the army. Edward takes Bella and hides with her in the mountins, and while they’re there guess who shows up, I’m not telling. But it’s really exciting and really awesome, and if you don’t read it your a loser!!! J.K!!! But seriously, this story is really sweet and has a good meaning in it, it kind of has a purpose. P.S, during the battle someone gets hurt. Ssssshhhhhh! Anyway, the author is incredable and has an amazing imagination, like a child, but, also like a teenager, and an adult, all at the same time. Oh, and F.Y.I, this is for the last 4 days, I’ve had alot on my mind. I think that the author wrote this book, not only to entertain, but to show what love and life is really about, faith and hope in the ones you love. The sencearness of one person should be juded by their thoughts and deeds. Now, I am going to tell you my favorite parts, one is when Victoria comes, because it’s exciting, and I like it when Jane comes for the same reason, and because it’s interesting to see what new borns are like around people. Anyway, Gabby needs the computer, so I’d better go, BYE!!!!

  42. hay its madalyn,

    I left off with the three children meeting mr poe at the dock. But, i just read that mr. poe called them a taxi and then they drove up to their aunt’s house.. And also, that i should tell you that her house is at the weirdest place … well, do you want to know where it is?
    their aunt’s house is on top of the mountain!!! And guess what? She is also scared of lake lachrynose!!! I think it is because of the recent death of her husband who i think drownded in the lake. But anyway her house is on the top of the mountain and it is held up by skinny metal rods.. I would even be scared to walk in that house!!! But, I will wright back soon. and mr. mayfeild i also wrote 1 thing too. but i might not be there tomarrow just to let you know but i am not completly sure so k bye

  43. I am blogging on The Roar a B.O.B. book. I think it is not a good book.

    Thursday:

    In The Roar, Ellie is found in the river in her Pod Fighter and gets lifted out of the river. She is in The Shadows. Mal Gorman forces her and her pet monkey into a coffin so the rest of the world will think she is dead.
    Her sister is going to school and he says the school is drab, covered in mold and concrete. He says that the school’s classroom doesn’t have heating or teachers. They’re teacher is on a television and they have only a supervisor. He starts seeing a counselor because of his nightmares and they start a Fit For Life program. That’s it for today.

  44. Hey i’m writing for two minutes since I didn’t do this yesterday.

    I am going to do a POV. The point o f view in in the sea of monsters doesn’t change but i want to talk about how the book might be if it was in the cyclops’s point of view. I think the book wouldn’t be about the sea of monsters i think it would be about how Tyson lived on the street. In the real story it said that Tyson was a baby cyclops. Tyson also said that there were many bullies on the street. The story could tell about Tyson’s life and how he was abandoned up until the point that he meets Percy. It could also tell how he found a place to live. The book said that he slept in a cardboard refrigerator box. One interesting thing that I want to know is how he knew that Poseidon was his dad before Poseidon even claimed him. Also I want to know why he didn’t stand up to the bully that was being mean to him. If it was me then I would stand up to him.

    see ya

  45. In the book ” Sermon on the Mound” the authors point of view has changed a little bit. He not only is trying to teach people about god and how he had to of create baseball he try’s to teach some rules on baseball. Now, not only is this book good for people who are religious and love baseball, if you want to learn some more stuff about baseball you can read this book. This book is basically a biography, its about Michel O’ Conner’s three loves, Baseball, his wife, and God. This is not really minutes but this morning i wrote for about minutes so it should cover. Bye.

  46. Hey, Just got back from the football game. We finally won we beat the Montevallo Bulldogs 22-12. WOOOOOOOO! I left off with the kids coming to the the horrible house of Count Olaf. They came and they were led to their horrible room which has one lumpy mattress, refrigarator box for a closet, pile of rocks to play with, and curtains for sunny to live in. The next morning Count Olaf went up to the forbidden tower. He left them a large list of chores for them to do for the rest of the day. The next few weeks they did the same thing everyday which is doing chores for the whole day then going to sleep. One day he left them oatmeal and a list of things they need to do to make for Count Ollafs theater troupe

  47. Hey Mr. Mayfield ,
    OK well i am still reading HUGE so far April and Wil do not get along and they are roommates Wil does not want to be at wellness canyon but April does. April saved up Christmas and birthday money to come and Wil’s parents paid for her way in. the reason i think they do not get along is because they grew up in two different worlds : April grew up in a world where she had to work for her money and things she wanted.Wil on the other hand grew up were she did not have to work for anything she wanted. April really wantr=ed to be popular and Wil did not really care about her size that is why she has two shampoo bottles full of Reese’s pieces and M&M’s.

  48. hey whats going on
    i am still reading the same book

    and then the long tongued lizards followed them and watched them
    and thier flat reptilian eyes apperising his trembling form
    he doi not know if he needed to feel relief or fear when 2 of them entered the barbac and hauled him off for an audiens with the emperor
    bye
    😛 🙂 🙁 😀 8)

  49. Ok so far in the book Bloody jack it is about a girl named Mary who is a begger and also a gang member who lives on the streets untill her best friend dies and she goes to become a ships boy. the only problem is that she is a girl and if they caught her then she would be hannged. So far she is doing well and keeping her head down and is also a helper in the school room to help since she was taught to read by her father before he was killed. So I haven’t goten very far yet. 🙂 😀 😛

  50. I have been reading the book, taken. its about a girl who is kidnapped by a group of mexican paramedics. She flashes back many times to happy times. she even had classes back in her school about kidnapping because there were so many. she lived in the safest neighborhood in the usa and still got napped as she would call it.

    Dear taken girl(your name is never mentioned),
    As always i put myself in your position and talk. If i were you i wouldnt care if i got shot leaving the ambulance. You knw that they probably wont do anything because if they do the deal will be off and they dont get money. also, how many people can an ambulance hold five or six. there’s not that many so i would atleast make a break for it. if they shoot you, they shoot you. theyre not going to make you suffer so it will either be a one shot one kill or they just dont shoot at all. boo yah. i may have just saved the day for you. but theres still a whole lot of reading to be done so i will soon find out if you follow my advice.

    i think that the reasoning of this book was to tell the reader to always be prepared. dont go into anyones car if you dont know them. if an ambulance comes make sure that your mom, dad, or guardian goes with you. make sure to check the ambulance’s personel license. remember to alwyas be prepared and never ever go into an ambulance. tell the driver that you want to ride with your parent. also, if an ambulance comes to your house for no reason and says that they got a phone call that the girl is sick, this is for you parents, dont let em go.

    i think that this book compares pretty well to the movie taken. who knows if they made the book or movie about one or the other. they both have basically the same plot. plot is the things that happen in a story. i saw the movie and the girl is kidnapped at the beginning. its the same for the book. but the story in the movie is told from the dad and the book is told from the girl. in the book the girls dad is hardly ever home but in movie the dad takes action and saves the girl. the thing the story is about is being kidnapped and they both have that in common.
