greetings to all, especially those that keep adding to my spam folder (you know who you are dave – why can’t you be un-spam-y like your older, wiser brother??? 🙂
“hope” – biography on a great comedian – if you’re new to this, all comedians, yes all, seem to these really tragic backstories – hope at least wasn’t moody – which was nice – but he wasn’t like a great dad or anything – he was probably the only entertainer to dominate vaudeville, radio, tv, and movies – all at separate times – so learning about him was learning about the 20th century – i definitely remember his latter specials – so that was fun to relive and think about
“steelheart” – one high school BOB down… the basic story of steelheart is “trying to defeat evil superman” – this book was definitely written for movie work – less about any character development and more just a rather fast moving plot – i say that, it really bogged in the backstory – but i finished – will NOT be reading the second book (of course it’s the beginning of a series)
my second graders on sunday are now planning evil things for my sixth grade – b/c they didn’t have enough lego people to play with – i blamed it on my sixth grade messing everything up, nice, right???

So, I finished The Fault In Our Stars today. I can honestly say I was deeply impressed. It’s a rare occasion to find a novel that can tell a story and make a point at the same time for you to be able to relate to those things. I’m going to write a book review because I feel that would be a good creative response.
John Green did many things good with his book The Fault In Our Stars. For starters, he did a very accurate job of leading the story through the point of view of a girl, which is not typically found from a novel written by most men- they tend to stick to what they’re comfortable with, which is writing through a character of their own sex. Furthermore, John Green expressed the reality that sometimes people have to live with the knowledge that even though they survived a cancer, they still won’t be able to lead a normal life and will eventually die anyway.
Of course, one can look at this book and consider it a love story. I believe it has a deeper meaning than being just a love story. I believe that this story is about the fact that everyone is equal, no matter what disease or disability they may have.
I’m starting a fun book tomorrow

hey i am back and i have my creative yay . i have had tuns of homework. i had to draw and color 10 pictures.
so Monday: Sherlock is doing what Sherlock does. he is studding a case about a man who was assumed to have killed his father.Sherlock is sure that he didn’t though. they found out that the murderer smashed in his skull with the assumed weapon the butt of a gun.(hehe guns have butts). but what i just realized is that that could not have been the weapon because the guys son dropped the gun and it would have know blood on it.
so that’s my creative Dave is out peace

The Big Fat Stone
The big fat stone was part of the big wall,
Unlike the other stones , this stone ate too much Kibbles ‘n’ Rocks,
He was the fattest stone on the wall,
One day, the stone ate so much he exploded,
And the wall came tumbling down.

Im going to analysis a political cartoon( or try to ).
This cartoon is saying that Obama is over spending on America and to say America they used Uncle Sam who is clearly obese and over weight so there saying that Obama sees the problem but chooses to avoid it and in doing this he’s making the problem substantially worse, I just noticed he’s sitting on big book labeled ” Budget” and the book is fairly large so he has a large budget so to say but his spending has gotten to the point were its out of control, so not matter how big his budget is its not going to compensate for how much he’s spending .
so i thought anna was gonna do an entire blog.
my mistake.
i’ll talk to her again after school today. 🙂
anywho, my blog this week will consist mainly of ALLEGIANT. i read a good bit of it this week, and it’s pretty insteresting so far. i honestly can’t believe they escaped the factions and went outside the fence! i think it’s fuuny, though, because once they get outside the fence, they begin seeing a lot of billboards advertising things they never knew about, like “Coke” and “booze”. and later afterwards, they learn that Chicago–which is the city they live in–is part of a a strange landmass called “The United States of America”, and that the section of the gov’t. that deals with warfare and things like that are in a remote part of Chicago (that they end up visiting) that was once an airport.
i also think it’s funny how when THE HUNGER GAMES came out, a bunch of other authors tried to do something on future utopian worlds, thus following to the DIVERGENT series. now (i’m presuming) that THE FAULT IN OUR STARS came out, a lot more authors are gonna try and do soppy love stories on cancer-stricken lovebirds. 🙂
here’s my creative.
“Books”
~by Blue~
Books are like wings.
To get somewhere,
You have to open them.
Books are like people.
To get to know them better,
You have to spend time with them.
Books are like candy.
Once you start eating it up,
You can’t stop.

well, i hafta go. bell rung. bye!

I finished the book i was reading about Vietnam and through all of the Vietnam war people in America strongly opposed the war and wanted nothing to do with it and that led to protests. What many Americans seemed to leave out is that we were going to win that war almost every battle we had against the vc was a victory and however many deaths we had you add a zero to the end of it and that was about the total of their deaths in the same battle. People in the United States protested so much that they were heard by the president who didnt want to make anyone mad and he started to return troops back home
Mary took his book to hear him recite.(Twain,1988)
she should of known tom didn’t know it as soon as she picked up the book,she should of told him to go back and study them.
Oh, Tom, you poor thick headed thing, I’m not teasing you.(Twain,1988)
tom is pitching a fit over not know the verse and Mary wont tell more than one word.
Please, tom – that’s a good boy.(Twain,1988)
Tom doesn’t want to put on shoe so he pitches a fit…really over shoes.
Answer the gentleman, tho mas -don’t be afraid(Twain,1988)
tom doesn’t no the answer so he say David and Goliath .
Tom claims the award of a Bible for knowing so many verses. Tom is introduced to Judge Thatcher, who asks him the name of the first two disciples, and Tom yells out “David and Goliath”
OK so here is my creative story.
One time One Direction were forced to do things they didn’t want to do .
“I don’t want to” said the leprechaun.
“oh come on.”enthusiastically curly said.
“Oh if he doesn’t want to do it he doesn’t have to ” mentioned Daddy Direction.
“Do it , do it ,do it ,do it, don’t be a wienie .” laughed the Bradford Bad Boy.
“Oi even Eleanor would’ve have done it !” exclaimed stripes.
“But i dont want to lick the peanut butter off of his foot.”
Note the spelling on that, not a door, not a dinosaur, a Dore. First blogger to correctly identify Vandy’s opponent (hint: check the SEC Network) win me not trashing them on the blog [yes this includes you to mythical alyssia, you can earn brownie points too]
I’m reading dork diaries
Line: but I just said it in my head so no one else heard me.
Commentary: this sentence is really important because she always says it when she gets mad and she wants to yell something mean mainly because she is already a dork and making a wierd come back will make her lose her chance of being in the CCP (cute, cool,& popular)
Line: 5foot roach
Commentary: When Nikki writes in her diary she mentions several times throughout her school year that if that day her dad is going to pick her up she is hoping her dad isn’t driving his bug extermination van that has the big 5ft roach (max) because she thinks she is and she is obviously going to be made fun of
Have you ever wondered what would happen if you changed the setting in dork diaries? This is what it might look like
At the city park the CCP were hanging out on top their favorite set of monkey bars in their designer clothing. Then when Nikki showed up and tried to play on them and asked the CCP group nicely to move they just insulted her. It was like she was invisible and it happened to her every day of the summer until school started back.
Thursday: so sherlock is investigation the case of the seemed to be innocent man. they have talked to him yet he knows nothing of what happened. they found out that he was madly in love with a girl but for some reason did not marry her. he did not speak of this to his father for his father would be very mad and wip his sorry butt. sherlock and watson will do further investigation.
sorry its so short its like 8:30 and i just got back from maxes football game.
Thursday:
First of all….WE WON tonight 26-6
Second….I finally abandoned the terrible book I was reading – Fire and Ice
Third… I started a new book today, The Mark of Athena
crunch, crunch, crunch (I’m eating cereal)
This book starts off with Annabeth and the Greeks flying over to the Romans to return their Preater (the leader or one of the leaders) and to get back their friend. Then there was an explosion on the ship and a statue appeared from the explosion (weird, right). Then the statue started talking – it told them to surrender and go away. Then they hovered over the city because they couldn’t land because the whole ship was a weapon and the city didn’t allow weapons. Instead of landing, they dropped rope ladders and they went down to negotiate.
Sincerely, Max
This is my creative 🙂 and no its not a Poem….this time
There I sat staring blankly the rain gliding of the window, outside looked dark and gloomy. You’ve been feeling horrible all day but your not sick you just can’t tell why. Your mom is talking on the phone while your dad is driving mumbling not so nice words under his breathe at the car in front of you. The rain really starts to comedown your little baby brother is crying in the back seat for some reason but you pay no attention to him your just anxious. Turning back your mom yells at you to help your brother you start to yell and protest back like any normal teenager then roll your eyes, huff really loud and do it. After you figure out what’s wrong and its his booster seat*
here is my creative story.
one summer day some friends gathered and played baseball. billy was up to bat and hit harry in the face and they thought he would be ok but the doctor came out and said that if they wanted to try to save him they could but it probably wouldnt work. so they said yes and so they did it but when the doctor came out they pronounced him dead
this changes the story because later on they get to being like best friends so this is why i did this
I can not believe I spelled it wrong!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙁
#Really I can but 🙁

The rain really starts to comedown your little baby brother is crying in the back seat for some reason but you pay no attention to him your just anxious. Turning back your mom yells at you to “help your brother Annie” you start to yell and protest back like any normal teenager then roll your eyes, huff really loud and do it. After you figure out what’s wrong and its his booster seat*huffing* you say ” Mom its not clicking” she hangs up the phone unbuckles her seatbelt to fix his. It just happened so fast you saw head lights and then a crashing noise. When you wake up your in the car but its up side down you hear a car speeding away. Looking out you see your mother laying across the pavement not moving your dad is still in his seat belt his right hand has a red stream coming down and hitting some broken glass. You suddenly remember you brother he’s not in his car seat you stop and listen* sirens far off* you don’t hear him crying a tear rolls down your eye.*coughs* “Hello”* shakes you*” Annie time to take your medicine”. A man in scrubs hands you a cup with four or five pills in them, you ask the man who you are? How do you know my name? Were is my family? “Annie we go over this everyday my name is Samuel, and your a patient of Bridge wood physic. ward your family died in a car crash over ten years ago”. ” What happened?” said Annie ” Was it a hit in run?”. ” If you must really know it wasn’t you have convinced yourself it was because you couldn’t handle the guilt”. * Looking confuse*Annie asked ” The guilt of what exactly?”. *sighing*” You caused it, you pulled on the wheel of the car but we never figured out why” Shocked and rid with denial she teared up and put her head into her pillow and slowly went to sleep. There is sat blankly………..

(Then Dell dropped the cage on the desk and boomed….)
“I told you to get out my next patient is here!!!!” Then the girl stood up fast and yelled, “DONT YELL AT US! IF MY BROTHER WANTS TO FINISH HIS COLORING BOOK THE HE WILL!” Dell did not say anything after that he just looked at her, Willow was very uncomfortable sitting in her chair she had not been used to all of the yelling! _-_-_-_ Then Dell just said here is the surprise! And Willow was thinking “All I said was my parents were allergic to animal hair and he feels the need to bring in his stupid CAT?!” (I think she should be more appreciative!) Then As they were all talking the cat took off outside the door and then…
That is all!!!!
I am the worst speller EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry for late journals got home late last night. BOOK: MY LIFE AS A BOOK
BEGGINING: The boy goes in the attic because he’s bored and opens up a big crate and inside there was a lot of old news papers but one of them say’s,”Girl found washed up on local beach”. So he takes it to his mom.
BEGGINING: He asked his mom, “Do you know what this is”? The mom responds with,”No”, she just turns her head, By this ,he knows something is going on, He goes back up in the attic to find what else was in that crate.
BEGGINING: What he finds is nothing but more newspapers. So he goes back down to his mom and say’s, “Why do you have so many newspapers”?
She say’s in a scared way, “You can never have to may scraps…for crafts?
BEGGINING: He say’s to his mom, ” YOU HAVEN’T DONE ANY CRAFTS WHAT SO EVER!!”, she says alright..alright its just me and your dad had a like for news papers. The son says,”Whatever”.
