ola (hola),
so i guess this past week was decently productive – read a whole bunch – among the highlights…
“bloody jack” – a BOB book – read it in a day – b/c it was bad and i was ready to be done with it:) i suspect most BOBers will enjoy the book b/c it’s rather steamy – the hammock sleeping was interesting – anyway, steamy for an academic competition – obviously not my pick – i still can’t figure out how that book was turned into a series…
“youth” and “heart of darkness” – i turned to the nook when i finished my books friday – both short stories are by joseph conrad – both about sea adventures gone wrong – “heart” is the more critically acclaimed b/c it’s about the african ivory trade in 1900s – and how Europe exploited the land – the stories are very well written, particularly b/c English was conrad’s third language
“the best of alf van hoose” – it might have had a catchier title, but that’s basically what it was – a reporter for the B’ham News – sports editor – for 40 years – the book was a collection of highlights – the best writing were pieces he did on special assignment – in Vietnam to compare his WWII experience with the “new” soldier – and in 1989 when he went back to europe and re-traced his route in WWII – i guess i liked those pieces the best b/c the issues are a bit weightier than what alabama or auburn did – although his finale to the barons old stadium – rickwood field – was wonderful
on a lighter note, i read a story this morning in “the economist” about male dancing as a way of attracting females – it seems that males who can dance better attract females better – and the better is when they use their three pivot points – like head, torso, and feet – they also found that head-banging is unattractive to women – and that the right knee’s motion is the most attractive to women – if only i’d known this sooner – oh well, there’s always the next school dance…

Hey Mr. Mayfeild,
Okayy so I read What Mr. Mattero Did and the one that I am goig to I mean for the journal thing is Author’s Purpose. So here we go!!!
Okayy so first off I am going to tell you about what I read and here goes, so these three girls named Jenna, Suzanne and Claire. And they take music class with Mr. Mattero and well see in study hall they were going to go down to his classroom and help him put away the Peter Pan play stuff. Well once they did there were two grownups already there helping so they were thelling the girls how to fold the costumes. Well once they left they thought it would be cool to try on the costumes for a minute. Well once they had gotten everything off Mr. Mattero comes in and starts to laugh and gives each of them a hug and rubs them on the back and touches one of them on the bra and one of them on the bottom. They felt uncomfortable about it so they reported it to the princepal and right away she had them split up into 3 diffrent rooms so they would not all say the same thing just so they could get out of that class.So once she got them split up she made them write a letter to them and they all said the same thing well they called Mr. Mattero to the office and once he got there he saw Jenna’s dad and well when he walked back into the Prinapal’s office and well Jenna told her dad that that was him and so he went back there and punched him in the eye.
So now I begin with the author’s purpose. Okayy so I think the author’s purpose for writing what I have read so far is that if you arre harrassed then you shouldn’t be scared to speak up those people are sick. And I wish the cops would take them down because from my point of veiw someone in my family knows how it feels.
-with care, Raychel:)
I am still reading ” Sermon on the Mound”. I am almost done with it so i only have one more book reaspons on it than another book to began. I like how the author has little quots on ever other page. He can make good quots too. ” in esscence, my coach Mr Barclay, was saying to me,” I trust you, son” it has bible versis to – Deuteronomy 31: 8 “The Lord himself goes befor you and will be with you;. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged”–2 Corinthians 5:17″ Therefor, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old is gone, the new has come. I am done for my blog today. Bye.
Not a lot of posts! ๐
I’ve been reading ECLIPS! (I’m not sure if it’s spelled right)
I think the author’s purpose 4 that section is to tell us how much Edward really cares about Bella, & not just him but all the Cullens/Hales. It was also written to tell us more about Rosaline’s human life. ๐ Jacob also cares about Bella too. That’s another reason this section was written. ๐
It was important for this section to be written or we would be confused by the rest of the book.
PEACE OUT PUNKS ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $
ps The Twilight author goes to my church but her building is located somewhere else. (I thought some people might have gotten that confused ๐ ๐ )
Hey its madalyn again..
Iam reading the 3rd book of the Unfortunante Events series.
I am now at the spot where aunt Joesaphine is giving the 3 children a tour of the house.. the first time they steped foot into the scary tall house the three were scared that they were going to fall straight thruogh the floor boards.. As the 3 kids walked slowly down the long hallway to the den they were super careful to not stomp around so that they would not fall or break anything.Then aunt Joesaphine came inb and gave them a little tour of their new home.. first she showed them the kitchen, the hallway, the den and finnaly the bedroom..The tree kids had to share a room because the house was pretty small. but the children had to be careful not to touch or use the door knobs because aunt Joesaphine said that the door knobs might come off and they wetre just to scary to use. and after dinner she gave the kids the rest of the tour. well thats all i got write next time. BYE : ) : X
Ola ๐
I’m gonna read Bloody Jack next, so don’t ruin it for me Maf! XD
Okay, so I’m going to only write one blog today because I’m tired, want to go write in my nanowrimo book, and I have to study for a geo test ๐
Alrighty. So I left off where Prim died. *cry cry* So Katniss gets hit by a spark or something and gets burnt up. She goes to a hospital and won’t talk. Ends up it was Gale’s bomb who killed Prim. JUST ANOTHER REASON TO LOVE GALE!!!!! Yeah, really hated him. Still do.
So Katniss is now a ‘fire mutt’ and so is Peeta. But at least the boy is alive. ๐
So one day Katniss tries to go and find Snow. She does and then the lady from District 8 lets her in. The room was filled with all of his creepy roses, and she speaks the first words since she has become injured
“I don’t beleive you.” because he said it wasn’t him that bombed the children with Gale’s bomb.
“Oh, Ms. Everdeen, I thought we agreed not to lie to each other.”
What does that mean? I will blog later.
Okay, I have to go study *blech*
Smiles,

Now I know that I blogged about Bloody Jack last week , but i think I will go into more detail about the book this time.
When Rooster Charlie is killed by Muck, a corpse seller, Mary takes his clothes and poses as a boy, in order to get a job. Dressed in boy’s clothing, she go to the docks and ends up being hired as one of six ship’s boys on the British warship the H.M.S. Dolphin. Mary is hired on because she can read, and she signs aboard under the name Jack (Jacky) Faber. Soon she meets her fellow ship’s boys, Willy, Tink, Benjy, Davy, and Jaimy.
After some time on the ship, Jacky catches the Captain’s eye when she makes a new uniform for herself, and is asked to sew up more for the others. After a pirate ship is spotted and a battle begins, the crew boards the enemy ship, and Jacky picks up a pistol from a dead pirate. She sees a pirate making a path for the side of the ship and about to kill the one of the ships boys Jaimy that Jacky was starting to have feelings for. Then she shoots the pirate, who is carrying a chest of money, and gets the nickname “Bloody Jack”. It is in this battle that Benjy, a ship’s boy in The Brotherhood, (what Jacky and the other ship’s boys call themselves), is killed. The ship heads for Palma to get there ship repaired after the battle.
After the ship lands at Palma, the ship’s boys go to get a tattoo to show their brotherhood. Then the ship heads for the Caribbean Sea. While Jacky is in the schoolroom, Midshipman Bliffil starts to beat Jacky up, and only stops when the teacher yells at him. Jacky is put in the sick ward for her injuries. She convinces Midshipman Jenkins to stand up to Bliffil and teaches him some fighting moves. A crew member Bill Sloat threatens Jacky and her sea dad Liam Delaney he tries to protect her, which causes some problems. Jacky then begins to make plans of how she will tell the captain that shes really a girl. When Bliffil attacks Jacky again, Jenkins stands up to him.
Jacky begins to sleep in the rope locker because The Brotherhood is uneasy with all the blood around her, and this is when Sloat tries to rape her. Jacky tries to protect herself by stabbing him with her knife, but she injures him more than she had meant to, and ends up stabbing him in the stomach and he stumbles overboard. Liam is put on trial for the murder and he is going to be hanged. Jacky intervenes and confesses to stabbing Sloat. She is put in jail and thinks that she will be hanged to, but she is set free because she acted in self-defense. So that is all that I am going to go into about the book Bloddy Jack. ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ฎ ๐ 8)
some thing is wrong if you are being visited by fuzzy pink squirells . I definatley know some thing is wrong if you bought it from olive-A . anyways tonight i was reading the ook fear the night still and tonight she finally finished interviewing mr. Reyals and for some odd reason he knew pretty much everything that she was going to ask him like whether or not he had a type writer or if he knew anything about the letters that have been sent to mr. reppetto or if he liked going to plays movies or shows at the theaters and he said not really but then he offered to take her to a play if she wanted to go but she refused to go with him . so now she left him and was headed back to the station but then she was worried about telling reppetto about interviewing him so now i am just waiting to dee what happens next . see you tommorrow by.
Hellos!!!!!!!!!! I am reading *A Sea of Monsters. I think it’s cool, but it would make more sense if I had read the first book. But, as far as I know, this book is AWESOME!!!!!! I think the author is trying to entertain and teach about the old time Gods and Godesses, and they did a good job. The author seems very creative. I think that they may of had to do some research, but it must of been worth it. I didn’t know that it was a Percy Jackson book!!! But I really do like this book. The action is cool and the main purpose is awesome!!! You need to read this book. Bye-Bye!!!!!!!!!!!!!! โโฅ
Hey, I am still blogging on Series of Unfortunate: book 1. I promise you I will finish it this week. I left off as they moved to Count Olafs house where he has a thing with eyes, works the kids everyday until bedtime, a horrible house, and he works in a mysterious tower. One day he left them a not saying his theater troupe s coming and he wants them to prepare a meal for all ten of them. They don’t know how to cook so they go to Justice Strauss next door to look for a cook book. They go next door and Justice Strauss leads them into a huge library with tons of books. Klause is very excited because she says they can borrow any books they want. They stick to their task and after a few minutes of searching through they finally find a recipe they like.
Hola. Yes Mr. Mayfield, I see you have used that word, clever. Well I have been really busy lately so I have only read like 2 or 3 chapters of my goosebumps book, but that’s okay because I have finally gotten to the part of the book where the owner(Kris) says the magical words to make the dummy come to life. (I don’t know if I mentioned this, but when I was talking about Mr. Wood doing all of that bad stuff, it turns out it was just Lindy pulling a mean practical joke on Kris.) But anyway all I am going to do tonight is write a short summary and compare and contrast the first Night of the Living Dummy to the other ones I have read.
Okay, so when Kris got home from school, she went upstairs to practice her act for the school concert. Well when she was practicing her act she noticed a little yellowed sheet of paper-the one with the magic words- and read the paper. It read Karru marri odonna loma molonu karrano. So the night before the concert, the Millers-their elderly next door neighbors- came over for coffee and decided they wanted to see Kris and Lindy’s ventriloquist acts. So Lindy’s act was fantastic. But Kris’s on the other hand was mean and very insulting, turns out it was Mr. Wood doing it. Then at the talent show, it is the very same thing. Now Kris is grounded for 2 weeks and suspended from school.
And that’s how that chapter ends.
Now I move onto the compare and contrast. Well I know that the magical words are the same and in every dummy in the living dummy goosebumps book have the same effect on those words. They turn mean and fairly rude. So I also know that all of the settings are different and their isn’t ever the same character(or at least I don’t think.)
Okay I think that sums it all up for me. I’ll post back tomorrow!!!!! Bye! ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐
Hola, me llamo Memo, (upside down question mark inserted here) y tu? (I took Spanish ๐ ) People have been doing random things on the blog, so the Song for today is Young by Hollywood Undead. I read Ark Angel today, kinda sorta interesting. Alternate pov time!!! (Surprise!) Paul Drevin is Nikolei Drevin’s son, and is bathing in money. Alex meets him at the hospital while Alex is recuperating from a sniper bullet through the chest, but Paul is told it’s a bike accident.
“Alex Rider is a strange kid. He somehow was in an accident with a bike and yet his only injuries, other than various cuts and brusies, are on his chest. Weird. You’d think that they’d be on his arm or leg. Oh well, I’m going to sleep. (Time passes, Paul snores) Ahh. That strech felt good. I’m going to see Alex. Walking along… knocking… not getting an answer… A nurse came and opened the door, yet Alex is not here. I go to the exercise room, and there are bullet holes in the walls. (More time passes, Paul is discharged from the hospital) I told Dad about Alex, and he says that part of his building in Something Square burned down, but a boy was seen crossing the banmner between two towers. Weird. Just weird. Oh well, I’ll go swimming.”
Paul is rich, Alex is weird, Alex was kidnapped. Done.
hey mr mayfield

which is from where she sat in the rocks the deadly otter commanded an uninterrupted view of the shores miles around
and she had slain five sea rats and their bodies lie of the sands by the boat
and each shot with a green feathered arrow

Hey everybody, I am still reading HUGE. Tomorrow is the day all of the campers go home but today is the dance and April see’s that there is only cool people left at the dance and she is one of them. She tells one of her new friends that she is happy her roommate Wil is not here because she is annoying but what she does not know is that Wil is standing right beside her. April turns around and she sees Wil what april did not know was that Wil was upset that April thought that she was.
Hey lalalalalal I am so sorry I didnt Write in the blog yesterday but I have something Called a life and yesterday I was enjoying it so Unfortunately I didnt write Yesterday. Today I was very weird so call me the…….
GOOFY GORILLA (lame I know) Well I am not reading anything interesting right now so I will just write about a book That I have been reading while I get an interesting book so drumroll please……. I am reading James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl
Tuesday
Ok so the Story of James was that he had Grown up having a good life (Sounds like somehthing that would happen in the Series of Unfortunate Events) but then his Parents died (sounds like Series of Unfortunate Events) because A Rhino ate them up. Yes I know a very Compelling story so James has to live with Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker (Once Again Like the Series Of Unfortunate Events) I guess you could say I am comparing the Two Stories while Summarizing. Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker were Terrible people (like Count Olaf) and they were greedy (like Count Olaf) They made James do chores all the time and they never fixed him any decent meals (like Count Olaf) So one day James is doing his Chores and a strange man comes up to him and hands him Crocodile Tongues and the man says they have great power to make somebody happy dearing the saddest of times. So James takes them and he wants to use them so badly but while he is carrying them up a hill he falls down on a tree Stump which makes him Drop the Crocodile Tongues and they started sinking under the ground While James is trying to catch them but they are too fast. Yes i Know The Crocodile Tongues move. This is a weird book and I feel the need to say I saw the movie when I was little and it is what I call an “acid trip” if you used this Phrase in a sentence you would say The movie Alice in Wonderland is an Acid Trip. So the movie was an Acid Trip and I dont like the book at all. So i Cant wait to get a better book. Well The Crocodle Tongue gets inside the peach tree that has never grown a peach before and a Giant peach grows up out of the Tree. Hints why the Book is called James and The Giant Peach. Well I have Actually Believe it or not Written for 10 minutes which I didnt Plan to do but now that means since I didnt Write Yesterday I Have my other five Minutes done now and I dont have To make it up Yeah ME!!
Well I am going to go bye Everybody!!
Love, Julie or Jewels However you want to say it!!!
I’ve been reading ECLIPS!!!!! ๐ ๐
I think that if I read this book through Edward’s point of view then the book would be completely different.
We would know the real reason why he is so worried about Bella hangin’ out w/ werewolfs. We would also know why Edward keeps secrets from Bella. We would also know how he hunts. ๐ We would also know what Jocob said to him while they were on the phone. We would better understand why he fell in love w/ bella. ๐ ๐
SEE U GUYS L8ER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐

ps The Twilight Series is NOT lame!!! ๐ ๐ ๐
(MR. MAYFIELD) !!!!!!!!!!!!! ๐ ๐ ๐
Mr.Mayfield, did you call Twilight lame? Arg! I am reading *The Sea of Monsters*, I am at the part where Percy, his brother, Annabeth, set off to find Grover and the Golden Fleece. You know that guy that can’t eat that took the awesome teachers job? Does he seem suspicious to you, like, tree poisioning suspious?!? Well, if the story was told from his point of view, I bet it would go a little like this, ‘ A these stink’n half-blood kids, messing everything up, espcially that Jackson kid. Oh, when I get a hold of him I’ll….oooo! Dounuts!!!’ He’s not very nice or bright is he? Well, I’m gonna go, Bye!!!!

Hey,
I wanted to tell you to add to your love of teenage sagas about hot guys who could kill you; there’s a knew book of the Twilight saga talking about life from Bella’s duaghter’s point of veiw! [Hint Hint] Christmas is coming up!!! lol jk. Anyway I read your post, and I wanted to now if the last story was fiction or non-fiction, because some of the guys known through histery where “headbangers” If girls weren’t actually attracted to that, then were they in it for the money, the fame, or are they different from the word… Was life greener on their side…
I am reading The Roar. It is a B.O.B. book but it is not a very good book. Apparently most of the B.O.B. books are not very good.
Monday:
Mika has been suspended for throwing Fit Mix Juice in the headmaster’s face because he thought they were trying to poison him. He has to wear a “detention collar” sort of like an invisible fence for a dog, if he walks out of his apartment he gets an extreme shock. He also has to do the sorting beads which are tiny and round so he has to pick them up with a pair of tweezers and he cannot squeeze them because they will slip out. If he loses one he has to do the whole thing over again. He gets a “goodie bag” from the Youth Development Foundation.
Tuesday-
In the goodie bag was an infomercial in the form of a memory card. The infomercial contained info about the Pod Fighter game that was “coming to an arcade near you”. When it arrived the Pod Fighters were simulators that moved in sync with the controls the players pressed inside. Mika tries gunning but isn’t very good at it so he tries flying and is instantly good. Kind of the same thread as other books, the one they least expect is the one who is at the top of the game. He and his partner, Audrey, make it to round three of the Pod Fighter game competition. That is all I know so far.

Okay now the book I am rereading is one I have already blogged on before so I might as weel go into more detail about Bloody Jack. Now where I left off is tat Sloat i just murdered by jacky who was acting in self -defense.
After that she is welcomed back by into the Brotherhood but the feeling is still weirds. Jaimy admits to her that he has strange feelings for her, and that is when Jacky asks him to hold up a dress so she can mark it, and Jaimy learns that she is really a girl and that she has feelings for him.
Soon after they arrive in Kingston, Jamaica. Jacky and Jaimy go out on the streets, and Jacky wears a dress that she bought. They eat at a cafรฉ, and Davy and Tink see them. Davy and Tink do not know that the girl Jaimy is eating with Jacky, and she leaves and changes back into her ship boy clothing. Then they set sail again and hunt for the pirates.
They soon meet LeFievre, a pirate, at sea. There is a battle, but LeFievre gets away, and the Dolphin is damaged and sinking but men are at the pumps pumping out water, but land is sighted, and they stop there. Soon, Mr. Tilden the teacher wants to put Jacky on a kite and fly her up so she can see more land, but the winds were blowing so hard that the tree she is tied to is ripped out of the ground and after many hours of flying she lands on an unknown island. She stays there for a few days and uses smoke signals to try to get the attention of HMS Dolphin. A boat crew from the Dolphin comes to rescue her and she finds out that LeFievre and his pirates are on the island with her and waiting to ambush the rescue crew. She tries to lead the rescue crew away but the pirates catch her and hold her for hanging and money. She is hanged, but is so scrawny and skinny that she just hangs there choking. The HMS Dolphin rescue crew lands, and Jaimy quickly cuts the rope she is hanging on, and Jacky survives.
Then she is finally discovered to be a girl. She is guarded by someone everywhere she goes. She is confined from almost everyone on board, including her old mates, but they secretly sneak over to the grating above her room to talk to her. She is told by the captain that she will be enrolled in Lawson Peabody’s School for Girls in Boston, and then the book concludes with her stepping off the ship. Now I know that some people on BOB don’t really like this book, but it was intresesting enough for me so hopefully by Monday I will have the second book in the series( Curse of the Blue Tatto). ๐ ๐ :p ๐ฎ ๐ 8)
hey i hate it when i forget to do this. any way im doing 10 minutes tonight on the hardy boys. well there has been alot of stolen cars on shore road and the boys try to solve the mystery. not only that there friend is accused of stealing the cars because the real person put one of the stolen cars in their yard. also their friend was looking for a treasure that their great grand father had. they suspect that a man named slagel might have framed them because he was fired by the hardy’s friend. the hardy are real close to solving the treasure when they finally find slagel and they chase him to a hotel.they find out why they couldn’t find him at any hotels during the day. apparently he had been coming in at about two o’clock everyday. he had also been going under a fake name. they go to the police and find out that the car he is driving is not a stolen one. then they see he goes into the paint store and see that he is buying a whole bunch of paint. i think that he is steeling cars and painting them. that would explain why he comes i so late because he stays up so late to paint them and how they cant find the stolen cars. thats all bye.
Hay! The song of today is The Boys of Fall by Kenny Chesney, awesome song. I’m kinda busy, so I will do author’s purpose. I finished Ark Angel, so the purpose is not only to entertain, but also to inform, as the end reveals several lessons in physics as he manuvers around Ark Angel. What is Ark Angel? Find out for yourself, cause I’m not going to do it!

I just finished “Sermon on the Mound”. It was an interesting biography. e talks about when he was a kid playing baseball for little luge. At the end of the book is says –1 Corinthians 13:13-” And now these three remain:faith,hope, and love. But the greatest is love.” –1 Corinthians 13:13-. If any one wants to go to his website called http://www.improbablepeople.org. it has some Christian music and lyrics. That is my blog for the night. Bye.
i just read what I wrote and i accidently wrote wuts uo mayfield< but i meant to say whats up mayfield its because i text toooooooo much.
Hey, my baby brothers birthday so I am very worn out. I left off with them getting the list that they need to make dinner for Count Olafs theater troupe. They go next door to the cozy house of Justice Strauss, only to find a library. They then find a recipe they like called putaneggo which is a pasta sauce. Justice Strauss gives them money and walks the over to the market where they get fresh ingrediants for there pasta sauce. Once they are done they headed back to her house where they told them they could borrow any book they wanted. When they went back to Count Olafs house they took all their ingrediants out and started to make the sauce. Once they were done they made noodles and prepared for his theater troupe to come.
hey mr mayfield

So Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker being As greedy as Count Olaf they decide to make people pay a lot of money to see the peach because they want money and people will give away all their money just to see a peach. So this goes on for a long time and James is still being tortured in case you didnt know that. Then one day when James was doing a chore he was given He walks around the peach and he starts to think about how good it would taste. (even though personally I hate Peaches) but he finds a big hole in the peach which is just big enough for him to climb through. SO James doing his james thing walks (Well Crawls) into the hole and keeps crawling into the peach and then…….. HE sees his dead parents they havent died after all just kidding it wasnt that interesting giantBugs!! Yeah how cool is that??? Not very. Personally at the thought of seeing Giant bugs I thing I would have ran out of that peach as fast as I could
out of all the ways to get out of trouble runnimg away is the best. but James stays and he realizes that the bugs can talk!!! once again this story is an acid trip. But I have written for Five minutes and I dont want to Write anymore about this Terrible Book so Bye Everybody!!!

This is Noah Reece, coming to you live from Mr. Mayfield 7th period classroom where Mr. J.T. Lee has allegedely sold his journals to Ms. Caroline Lowe
Alternate Ending- Jack ran through the crowd of Berserkers, hoping to get lucy. But he was to late, Lucy had been killed by the berserkers. Jack couldn’t help but weep. He had figured there was no point to even try to escape, his life was already ruined. Jack wasn’t thinking straight. Something made him start to see blurred visions. He turned and saw the berserkers bard conjuring up a spell. He swung with a violent blow and slammed the bard into the ground. He saw his chance and jumped off the boat. Only thing wrong, he forgot they hazdn’t docked
I’m still reading The Roar. A B.O.B book. I think it isn’t a good book, but that’s just my opinion.
Wednesday –
Right Now in The Roar Mika has won a vacation in a simulated Carribean Complex. The animals are fake and everything is plastic, even the sand. His parents are vacationing while he is training for Level three Other “Pod Fighter” Game They start their training and guess what? It isn’t even in a Pod Fighter game simulator. It is in the fake ocean which is only twenty feet deep. They practice and finally it comes down to the real competition. More on that tomorrow.

Okay I have just started a new book called The Enemy by Charlie Higson. The Enemy begins a year after a worldwide sickness has infected all the adults turning them into canabalistic zombies. Surviving children have formed a number of groups throughout London in order to better defeat these adults and to increase their odds of survival. The book opens as a survivor named Small Sam is kidnapped within Waitrose, a supermarket, by adults and taken away. The other children led by a boy named Arran and his second-in-command named Maxie have increasingly grown tired as this has become something of a regular occurrence. The adults are becoming smarter and as a consequence the children are being picked off one by one. Earlier a scavenger party, comprised of Arran, Achilleus, Ollie, Freak and Deak explored a building with a swimming pool to find an old vending machine, however it was a trap. During the battle Deak was killed and Arran was bitten by a woman whom he recognized as his mother.
After the party returns, later that night a boy in a patchwork coat named Jester rushes into the building for safety and claims he made the journey from Buckingham Palace where a group of kids are holed up in a safe environment. He claims that if they travel there, they will all be safe as well. The majority of the group like the idea and soon set off through Camden to the palace along with another group of kids from Morrisons who share the same feeling. A lone kid named Callum decides to stay behind. Meanwhile, Small Sam awakes in a grown-up base made at Arsenal Stadium. He escapes and heads back to Waitrose to find only Callum. Callum wants nothing of Sam and sends him off the next day to find the other kids. That is all I have read so far in the book. ๐ ๐ :p ๐ฎ ๐ 8)
KK, the song of today is Love The Way You Lie by Rihanna and Eminem. So, i read Ark Angel, think ill copy Noah and do alt. ending. Alex gets invited to Drevin’s place, and he explores. its kinda slow, so how about….
Alex is caught in the bathroom, dropping toothbrushes into the toilet. He is captured and forced to listen to Ms. Partridge teach (What happens on the blog page, stays on the blog page). He uses flashbang earbuds to blow his eardrums out, then sits there until the school day is over. They go in to collect his body, but find that he is alive. He then uses fiberwire shoelaces to choke the guards, then takes the extremley powerful paintball guns from them. He then gets in a huge fight with Drevin, that somehow ends with Alex holding a pointy umbrella at Drevin’s throat. He stabs it in, letting his rich blood run over the tiles in the kitchen. Paul drevin then walks in and slams Alex’s head into the wall, watching as his brains smear the walls, then calls a servant to clean it.
That was… akward……
Bye!
P.S. Noah, we have 6th period Mayfield. Fail.
To start off my blogs- Peace, Love, & Ankles
Anywho, I am still gonna blog on Mockingjay, because I have to finish my blogs on that book. As long as I don’t leave anything out like John Daniel. ๐
Tues.- Katniss finds out they plan to kill President Snow, but she suspects that Coin was the one who dropped the bomb. (I dropped a bomb on you!) ๐ So Katniss isn’t surprised. They send her out to kill Snow, but she shoots Coin instead. (Yes!) I didn’t say that. So now Coin is dead and everyone was sad *cough cough*
Wed.- BTW, Snow was either trampled or someone stabbed, shot, or some other form of murder. (Oh darn!) Katniss goes back to 12 with Haymitch and he’s all like “You want to know who’s coming back too?”
Katniss- No.
So they get back and of course Gale doesn’t (Jerk) and he is in 2 with a fancy job for the military. Katniss is sad because no one is there and she wakes up screaming one night and walks around the house and Peeta is standing there. *Ahhh!*
Thurs.- Katniss is really angry, but he’s planting Primrose and she gets all happy with Peeta but angry inside and then it just says Buttercup comes, she screams as him, he starts to cry, because Prim is gone *sniffle*
But then, the ending lines are awesome!!!
Get ready ***drumroll*** This is AMAZING!
You love me, real or not real? -Peeta
Real. -Katniss
Ahhh, so really great book. I LOVED it!!!! I have to go read or save and animal or child or something.
Okay
Smiles,

Hey Mr. Mayfield,
Okayy so comtining with my last book which was entitled: What Mr. Mattero Did. Well sisnce I already did a summery once this week I am going to da a pov change.!!! so here we go !!!:)
Okayy so this is it, so I am going to do the povc for Mr. Mattero’s daughter and her name is Melody. Okayy so this is how her povc see at first she thought that her dad did not do what the 3 girls had said and was totally confused by the whols situation, and then her mind sort of shifted to saying that maybe just maybe her dad did do it and she wanted to belive that that was not true, and finally we are at the stage where she is totally confused doesn’t know what story to belive and wants it all to be over!!!
-well that is me Raychel:)
hey today i read the hardy boys again. i am going to talk about change one thing that changes is the setting. this is one of the only books that i have read where the setting changes and then goes back to the original setting. i think that if the pov changed to the hardy’s friend chet then he would be thinking about how hunry he was because he is on a diet. i wish the story would change from third person to first person. well there goes my five minutes see ya later.
Hey, a long day at church today. I left off when they went over to Justice Strausses house and they saw her library. They got a recipe for pasta. They went to the market and got all the ingrediants they needed to make the sauce. They went home also with a couple of borrowed books. They made the sauce and prepared some noodles to go with it. They heard a knock at the door and Count Olaf invited in his odd theater troupe. Their was a man with a hooked hand, 2 women with powder on, a very tall man, a man who looked like a girl, and Count Olaf. Count Olaf walks in and sees the sauce they made and starts screaming at the children because he wanted roast beef. When he is done he goes and sits down and the children feed the weird theater troupe.
wuts up mr mayfield
i am still reading the same book
so far i have read that the spiral stone staircase from the cavern hole and the great hall up to the abbey dormitories needed only the lightest skim with a broom
and they were passably clean before tansy began her chore
and the stairs above from the dormitory to attics and which intrigued the young hedgehog maid
and she was sweeping her broom along the bedroom corridor and glancing nervously to where the upper stairs were situated at the end of the passage
bye
Hello everyone!! It is now about 10:30 and I am multitasking. Right now I am typing on the blog and finishing up my spelling contract. Why am I doing that? Because I got home around 9:30; because I went to the fair with Julie!!! It was soooo fun!!! But I think that I’m just going to get to my point here. My point is, is that it is kinda late and I am going to blog for 10 minutes(and that’s because I didn’t have enough time to blog yesterday.)
Okay so tonight I am going to do a short summary of what I have read lately and I am going to do a POV change.
Well I’m not really sure, but I think I may have left off with Mr. Wood coming to life and everything. Alright so after the concert (the one at Lindy and Kris’s school), and after the twins went to bed, Kris woke up to a door creaking open. Well it turns out it is the closet door where Mr. Wood was. Then guess what happens after that. Kris’s starts talking to the dummy and he tells her that she is now his slave since Kris awoke him from his sleep(p.s she did that with the magic words on the piece of paper). So now Mr. Wood is running around their house saying that it’s his and how Lindy and Kris and their parents were all his slaves. It’s actually pretty entertaining to read.
Okay now I move onto the POV change. Well I would love to read the book even more if it was actually from Mr. Wood’s and Slappy’s point of view. I mean if it was from Mr. Wood’s POV, then things would be like very mid-evil and stuff; and if it was from Slappy’s POV, then he would be like man, I wish I could do that, make me talk! Or maybe, man, what a freak. But I think that that would also be fairly entertaining to read.
Alrighty, looks like I’m done. I will try my best to blog again tomorrow!!! Bye!

I am still reading The Roar, a B.O.B. book. This is still not a very good book. l did and out where the title comes from though.
Thursday-
The title comes from the power coming from inside Mika and Ellie’s head. They call it “The Roar” or the anger inside their heads allowing them to destroyer move things with their minds. Mika discovers “The Roar” when he is mad at Rubin for making fun of his mutation when Rubin is also a mutant. He also discovers that Ellie and Puck are at Cape Wrath along with him and the other winners. And he finds out dreadlocks Leo has a tail. They have to wear white uniforms at Cape Wrath and everything is white and sterile. That’s all for this week on journals.

Hello!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have FINISHED *The Sea of Monsters*. It was awesome!!! It is about Percy Jackson, who is the son of Posidion, (Duh!) and he and his friends go on a quest to find the Golden Fleece and save their friend from marrying a cyclopes. (Not Duh!!) Their friend, Grover, (the one who is going to marry a cyclopes) is part goat. Percy’s fried Annabeth is the daughter of Athena, and Tyson, is a cyclopes ( who doesn’t want to marry Grover,) is his brother. They make a pretty odd team, don’t they? Well, They go into the Sea of Monsters to save Grover, ooops! I should tell you that most monsters would like to have them for lunch, so, not a good idea. Anyway, this book is really cool, and I want to read the first one. Yeah, I read the 2nd one first. But still, read this book, or, sit at home and be a loser, waiting for killer, vampire gummy bears to eat your brain!!!! J.K!!!! Anyways, PEACE OUT SUCKERS!!!! J.K.

hi it is maddie again,
I am reading about AMAZON PARROTS
and i want to tell you about the part about the amazon parrots favorite food..
Some are their favorite foods are fruits:apples, pears, plums, cherries, grapes are some of the fruuits that we mostly eat.. but here are some tropical fruits they like for instance:oranges, bananas, mangos, and kiwis.. and also some other red fruits and other kinds.. ๐ ๐
hi it is maddie here to talk to you about amazon parrots..
my grandmother has one so i am now starting to learn more and more every day about the amazing and interesting tropical bird..
i will now share some of my knowledge about the parrots that i have learned so far..
babys and small children (from ages 3-7) should not be left in the room by themselfs with the bird out of the cage without supervision.. it might be dangerous for the child and bird. Also you should not leave a large dog or a cat out when the bird is out unless you are also in the room at that time. you also need to put the bird up when you leave the house or if yuo leave the room for more than 5 minutes b/c the bird might get into something important or dangerous. well, that is all for now bye.. ๐ &)
hey im still om the hardy boys. but im almost done with it (yea). i think that change in this story is not limited at all. thanks to the boys adventures the setting changes alot. another thing that changes is the hardy’s friend chet. he used to be a really big boy that ate alot and now he’s on a diet. another thing that changes is the hardy’s dad.usually he is at home but now he is in new york working on a case about a person smuggling guns into the u.s. well i got to go bye.
