Three Elements: Taxi car, old enemy, and Valentines day.

Short Story I wake up the same every day, I get up, get dressed, and then I wait for my dad to get up and take me to school. I never wondered what it would be like to fall in love but like my mother always used to tell me is that there’s a first time for everything. You see my mom died when I was 10 years old, now I’m 16 years old. I mean like every other girl I’ve had my share of crushes. They haven’t gone farther than a crush but that’s just because I haven’t found the one yet.

The perfect guy has to be willing to put my needs before theirs if their needs aren’t as important and they also have to be sweet and caring, but sadly society has shown me that not every guy is perfect I mean nobody is perfect right. For now I’m just going to stay single because I think I’m better of that way. All girls don’t need a guy in their life they need friends and family not some boy toy to mess with, all though lots of girls rather have a boy toy then friends. I honestly feel sad for those people.

Sorry that I’m getting so wrapped up in love, I haven’t even said my name yet have I. My name is Annabelle; I’m a 16 year old girl living in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. My father is a very hard working business man so I rarely see him except for at home of course. Of course I’m telling you this story about girl’s favorite month February. The month of love, romance, and of course Valentine’s Day. I’ve always wanted to have a valentine on Valentine’s Day but no guy has ever asked me for me to be their valentine, who am I kidding no guy has ever asked me out or asked for a kiss. I am an abomination to women all around the world at least they have an occasional date here and there.

Today is going to be my first day in a new school; you see my dad and I had to move due to his business. The first day is always hard for people like me. It’s mostly because it’s hard to make new friends. When my dad dropped me off I started to get this query feeling in my stomach, I was nervous beyond belief. I started to walk up to the stairs of the school and all I can see is people looking at me as if they knew once they saw me that I was the new kid. I walked in and there were so many kids walking around the school, I find my new locker and open it when some red head chick came up to me and said… “Hi, how are you I’m Kate that’s short for Katherine and you are”. This girl was quite the conversation starter I kept thinking but if I play my cards right I might make a new friend.

“My name is Annabelle it’s nice to meet you”, I said.

“Nice to meet you too Annabelle, wow Annabelle that’s a very pretty name who came up with that”.

“My mother she named me after my great-grandmother”. After I said that I looked at the person behind I couldn’t make him out at first but when she moved her head I saw him very clearly. He had dark brown hair, and brown eyes but it was his smirk that made me remember who he is. Of course I don’t remember his name but I remember that we knew each other in 4th, 5th, and 6th grade. He was to me not a friend no, he was my biggest enemy. He always used to put dirt in my hair or call me names of course I did all these things back at him but all we did was hate each other especially in 6th grade when he told my crush that I liked him right in front of me and all they did was laugh and laugh. “Hey, Kate who is that guy over there with the football jocks”?

“Oh the one with the brown hair yeah that’s Rider”. That’s right his name was rider, I can’t believe that I didn’t remember that.

“We used to go to the same school together, he literally was my own personal bully no one else made fun of me except him”.

“He is like one of the rebellious kids in school”, said Kate.

“Wait what if he remembers me and starts calling me names, and throwing dirt in my hair, or even worse tells the guy I like that I like him right in front of me again”.

“Well you guys were just kids then right, maybe he won’t even remember you”.

“Your right I mean that was years ago we wouldn’t remember me”. Or would he and the nightmare that was my three last years at elementary school become a reality.

After are conversation was over I realized that I made a new friend and that the bell was ringing and I still had to put my stuff in my locker. Kate went off to her first period class and told me to have a great first day and that we would meet up at lunch. Once I got all my stuff together I headed off to my first class. I opened the door to my history class and walked in at first I didn’t look at the class all I looked at was my teacher. “Late on your first day we might have to fix your socializing so that you get to class on time”. When she said that she started to laugh it was only a couple seconds later that I realized she was just kidding. “Okay everyone this is the new girl Annabelle”. She then grabbed me by the arms and turned me around to see the class my eyes fixated on one particular person in the back of the classroom. It was Rider he was to bust scribbling to look up.

“Well, say hi Annabelle this is going to be your history class until the end of the year”.

“Hi everyone I’m Annabelle”.

“Now everyone I will go row by row and when I point to you say hi to Annabelle”. She then pointed at the first girl in the row then she said hi and I said hi back, once she pointed everyone said hi to me except for when she pointed at Rider who was still too busy scribbling. “Rider”, when he looked up he was surprised, “I’m sorry is are getting to know the new girl getting in the way of your coloring session”.

“No, not at all”.

“So could you be as kind enough to say hi to the new girl”. He then looked at me with a shocked face like he was shocked to see me. Oh no he probably does remember me, and my nightmare is going to turn into a reality. But then he smiled at me like he was also happy to see me.

“Hi”, he said and of course I had to reply back to him so I said hi.

“Well now that you have gotten to say hi to everyone you can take your seat”.

“Of course the only seat that was available was the one right next to Rider”. 

Short-Term & Long-Term Goals Some of short-term goals are to finish the year with passing grades which I actually have a plan on raising up my grades in Science and English class, those are the only classes I am failing with at the moment but I am determined to raise both of these grades. Another short-term goal I have for this year is to end the year with no more drama, I don’t know why but I am always pulled into drama and I am honestly sick and tired of it because I want no drama I my life starting now I guess. One more short-term goal I have for this year is to have as much fun as possible sense there is only a couple weeks of school left. Some long-term goals I have are to become a really good dancer, because dancing is my number one passion in life. It would be really nice to become a professional dancer in the future. Another one of my long term goals is to become an actor. I love acting which probably sounds really lame but it’s my second passion in life. I have actually acted in a musical, did I also mention I am a pretty good singer, anyway I acted in the hit musical Oliver! I loved the movie and being a part of the musical was really special and I will never forget it. I think that I want to either act on camera like in TV shows or off camera like in plays and musicals.

The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones The book //The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones// has a big movie hit based on one of the many books in the collection. The author of the book is Cassandra Clare. The genre is romance/drama/fantasy. I choose it because I personal think it is way better than most of the romantic fantasy type of books I’ve ever read. I have had my fair share with romantic/drama/fantasy books but they don’t compare to how amazing this book is. The main characters of this book/movie are Clary Fray, Jace Wayland, Alec Lightwood, Isabelle Lightwood, Simon Lewis, Jocelyn Fray, Magnus Bane, and Valentine Morgenstern. The setting of the story takes place in Brooklyn. The first 10 pages start out with Clary on the phone with Simon talking about what they are planning on doing later for her early birthday celebration they then end up going to a poetry reading to support a friend and then she goes with him to a club even though she didn’t ask her mom Jocelyn. When they go to the club she meets the eye of a cute gothic stranger who then catches the eye for a cute and dangerous girl named Isabelle. He then walks over to where she is standing and Clary goes over near them to see what they are doing. Then when he notices the strange markings on her body he knows what she is when he pushes her away she whips out her electric snake and pulls him in while her brother Alec holds him down. As clary is watching she notices the handsome blonde guy in the hooding named Jace with a long sharp sword, he then slits his throat and as she screams all three of look at her in shock and all of them realize that she can see them when she isn’t supposed to. I would go on but then it would never end but this book is quite amazing.

1. I would like to meet the writer of “Me” I would like to meet him because in his poem he seems very content with his life and I would like to learn how to be content with my life just like him. 2. (a) The two things that Walter compares to himself are a tree and a flower. (b) the speakers first qualities he compares himself to is forlorn which means sad, miserable, or unhappy and the other one is a flower with dew drops which signifies he is miserable. 3. (a) In the first four lines Walter says he shall always be “him self”. (b)The message about people in general suggests that Walter wants you to see other people’s misery before you complain about things in your life that isn’t as bad as the things going in other’s lives. 4. (a) I think Walter feels like even if he screws up at something or someone tells him to change he is still going to be the same person. (b) A specific word choice from the poem that indicates that he is very miserable in this poem.

Trust is something that you earn not something that can be given to you. When you can trust someone is when you can have the knowledge that they are keeping something like an item safe. Take this for example, you just got a really nice backpack for your birthday and you ask your friend to watch it for you while you go to the restroom, then when you come back you see that no harm has come to your backpack, that’s when you know you can trust them to watch your stuff if needed. You can also trust someone with a secret. Secrets are the one thing that you don’t want anyone to find out. Take this for example, you just told you friend that you have a crush on one of the most popular guys in school, she told you that she wouldn’t tell a soul about it, and she never does tell anyone, that means you can trust this person with something as bug as a secret. Now when you can’t trust someone is when you have the knowledge that sense she has let you down before that she can do it again. Take this for example, you just asked your friend to watch your backpack for you while you go get lunch, when you return you see that both your friend and your backpack is gone, that’s when you know that you can’t trust her with something as little as a backpack. Trust is an important key in things like relationships, friendships, and with your family.

Apple executives claim that on-demand music services have begun to eat into its download sales. They are pressuring the record labels to release music solely on iTunes for a brief window of time. Some Hollywood studios impose a similar window for films newly released for home viewing. Apple wants to offer new music through iTunes before other services can stream it. Music industry insiders spoke on condition of not being named. The digital market is changing, they say, and Apple’s push for the release window shows the tech giant is scrambling to keep its advantage. Apple is based in Cupertino; Calif. Apple’s iTunes online store is responsible for about 80 percent of all download music sales in the U.S. For the past 10 years, the iTunes store grew steadily. But in 2013, its digital song and album sales began to slide. Song downloads were down 12 percent through February. Digital album sales were down 13 percent, according to Nielsen SoundScan, a company that tracks U.S. music sales.

The article “Consumer groups urge Girl Scouts to drop Barbie partnership” is about how some people think that the girl scouts and Barbie’s manufacturer Mattel are giving little girls the wrong message about their campaign and are giving girls’ self-esteem issues, some girls are becoming anorexic. The girls feel as if their body isn’t perfect, they think that because Barbie is skinny, long legged, and small waisted that they have to look that way too. People wanted Girl scouts to drop their Mattel partnership, but they wouldn’t because they thought that the message given was that the girls get encouraged by the idea.

The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton is an amazing book. It tells us a story about the two rivaling gangs the greasers and the socs. In the story ponyboy who is one of the members in the greaser gang, is telling the story that changed his life. In the beginning he talks about how his parents died in a car accident and he lives with his two older brother’s sodapop and darry. The names in this story are very complex to me, like sodapop and ponyboy who would have thought of excellent names like that, but there is also a touch of simple names as well, like the names Steve and Johnny. The book tells us a story about how ponyboys life changes in a flash. Ponyboy and Johnny go through a tough event that involves murder, they have to run away as soon as it happens, but there is also a lot more deaths than this one. When Johnny and ponyboy run away to an abandoned church, the church catches fire with kids inside. Johnny, ponyboy, and dally who is another member of the greasers run in the burning building to save the children. Inside they save the children but suffer the consequences. Johnny and dally end up in the hospital with bad injuries from saving the children in the burning building, Johnny’s injuries are way worse than Dally’s. Johnny ends up dying and the greasers deal with it in their own way. Dally gets himself killed by a cop, the others are even more devastated then before. Due to Johnny and Ponyboy’s actions the boys have to go to court to find out if they can all live together or get sent to a boy’s home. The case of the dead soc is dropped and ponyboy, sodapop, and darry can live with each other like always. This book is personally one of my favorites.

It has been a tough few months for me and the greasers, after the silent toughing death of Johnny and the horrify death of dally; we boys have been in for a tough one. I honestly have no idea why it came down to just us five guys, sometimes I really do miss the seven of us. Either hanging out at a movie in the socs territory, or just throwing the old pig skin in the backyard. I now know that it was the whole feud between us and the socs that everything sadly fell apart. I do blame them for what has happened to both dally and Johnny. If they hadn’t tried to drown me in a fountain then Johnny would have never had to kill bob, and we would have never had to run away to windrixville, and they fire would have never happened and Johnny would have never have to save the lives of children to loss his own, then dally would have never pulled out that gun in front of the cops to loss his life because he could not handle Johnny losing his. I still hope that dally and Johnny are in heaven somewhere together and always. I have never thought about what I wanted to be when I grow up, but for now I’m just an outsider watching the sunset thinking of are dearly departed.

The day that I am writing about is the day I performed in my fifth grade talent show. I have always wanted to be a professional dancer ever sense I was a little kid and that’s around the time I developed the stage fright every time I tried to perform in front of people I always got cold feet. I always tried to get over my fear but I never knew how to. Then I decided to audition for the school talent show in fifth grade. The strangest thing is I can remember the entire night of the talent second by second and I still remember it to this day. When I first found out about the talent show I wasn’t sure I could do it because of my condition, but my friends thought I should do it and they supported me through it all. When I auditioned no one was there except for the guy putting on the talent show. He said that I was amazing and said that he would love for me to be a part of the talent show. I was so happy I rushed home to call my mom and tell her the good news. Then, it suddenly hit me that I had to start rehearsing in front of everyone else that made it in the talent show. The best part was that they also supported me and helped me through it all. The night of the talent was so real and scary I didn’t know that I would get so scared, but I went up on stage and I danced like I never danced before and everybody loved it and they said that I was great. I now know from this experience that it’s easy to overcome your fear.

In the story “The Monkey’s Paw” Sergeant Major Morris foreshadows brought by the monkeys paw. When the White family asked about the previous owner’s wishes. Morris replied. “The first man had his three wishes, yes,” was the reply. “I don’t know what the first two were, but the third wish was for death. That’s how I got the paw”. When mr. white asked Morris if he had three more wishes would you take morris said he did not know. Also when mr. white asked him for the paw Morris said no. Morris says and I quote “ I threw it on the fire. If you keep it, don’t blame me for what happens. Pitch it on the fire again like a sensible man”. He lastly says after he shows mr. white how to use it “ but I warn you of the consequences”.

Compare and contrast of: Nevermore and Divergent. Nevermore is written by James Patterson in contrast to the book Divergent which is written by Veronica Roth. The book nevermore has a lot of fighting scenes in comparison to Divergent battle and fighting scenes. Nevermore has a girl main character named Max in comparison to Divergent, whose main character is a girl named Trish. Nevermore has a romance between Max and Fang in comparison to in Divergent having a romance between Trish and Four. Nevermore has a group of good guys trying to save the day or someone in contrast Divergent having a group of people saving the whole city then just one person .Nevermore has a group of genetic bird-like kids in contrast to divergent having a group of normal kids learning how to fight their way to justice. In Nevermore they all live in a normal society in contrast to in Divergent they live in a not so normal humane society. Those are the compares and contrasts on the books Nevermore and Divergent.

The Compare and Contrast on Sixth Grade and Seventh In sixth grade we only had one teacher in contrast to seventh grade which has multiple teachers every day. In sixth grade we had one whole class in contrast to seventh grade which has multiple classes or what we like to call periods. In sixth grade we learned math which was kind of easy in my opinion which is somewhat similar to the algebra we learn today, but algebra is harder than the math in sixth, in my opinion. In sixth grade we would get grades like proficient, advanced, basic, or below basic in contrast to the grades we get in seventh grade which are A’s, B’s, C’s, D’s, and F’s, I honestly think that the A’s and B’s thing is easier to understand. In sixth grade we had recess, but in seventh grade we do not have recess. In sixth grade we didn’t have as many parties or fundraisers, but in seventh grade we have lots of parties and fundraisers. In sixth grade we did not get a cool iparty every time we get good grades and citizenship grades, but in seventh grade we do. In sixth grade we didn’t get citizenship grades, but in seventh grade we do. There are the compares and contrasts of sixth and seventh grade.

1 S.E. Hinton was born in Tulsa, Oaklahoma. 2 She has always enjoyed reading but wasn’t satisfied with the literature that was being written for young adults which influenced her to write novels like The Outsiders. 3 The outsiders was published in 1967.

My symbol…

The symbol that I’m going to write about is on books. Books are a symbol of education; we use books to learn new and old things. The books we read will help us have a successful future. We can read books about things that we learn about or we want to learn about. We can read books on math, English, science, history, or world languages. Or you can read your average everyday book on mysteries, romance, drama, or etc…. I like to read mysteries and romance novels. When I read books I feel like my brain is working faster and filling up with information.

My life in 20 years. I hope that my life in twenty years will be full of dancing. I have been dancing my whole life and I would really like to take up a career in dancing. I remember how when I was little I would always put on dance routines for my family. I would pick a song do a little rehearsing and preform in a little cute outfit. Now, when I mean dance I mean hip hop dance. I only want a profession in hip hop dancing. When I am hip hop dancing I feel like a completely different person, like I’m not even me anymore. Hip hop dancing is a way to express myself; also it’s a lot of fun. The only thing I have to do before I start actually full fill my profession is get rid of my stage fright. Even though I have performed in front of my family I just can’t perform in front of friends or people I know. Let me tell you a little story. In the fifth grade I performed in the talent show. At first it was all going good because ever body that I rehearsed in front liked my dancing and I felt ok dancing in front of them. That was until… the day of the talent show came. I performed and right after I did I almost had to throw up. Long story short I have some things to work on before I make it my lifelong profession.

Amaya S. Period#7 1/27/14 Goals and strategies for semester 2 For the next six months my goal is to keep my grade in English as high as possible. It will be a challenge but it won’t be impossible. For me to be able to keep my grade as high as it can go I will have to start making sure to turn in my assignments on time and studying for any possible tests that we might have. I will make sure that I complete my assignments and put a lot of thought into the things I write for my assignments. I will lastly make sure that I make my homework assignments more creative instead of boring. I hope that I can reach at least a B if not higher. My recent grade was a C and I’m not so proud of it. If I can reach up to an A then I will make sure to keep that A up. If not I at least want to earn a high B. I to make sure that I can try and get these kinds of grades will have to turn in my homework assignments and try to get good grades on tests and quizzes. I am hoping that I can get good grades this semester because then I will be able to graduate. These are my goals and strategies for semester 2.

1 my friend thuy and I have different social, ethic, and economic backgrounds. For one she has a social life online and of line I am not allowed to have a social life on the internet. Also she lives in a nice house and I live in a nice little apartment. 2 I think that you can overcome your environment and have success. You just have to put 100% effort into having success and happiness because those things do not just come easily to you. 3 well gangs and families always stick together no matter what also they support one another, gangs love each other like a family. 4 they have to be nice, caring, and supportive to become a super hero. You do not need powers to be a super hero. 5 someone who isn’t welcomed or someone who can’t be included.

1 He declines his nephew’s invitation to come over on Christmas day for dinner. 2 Jacob Marley was scrooge’s old business partner. His personality is kind of the same as scrooge’s he is stingy and disrespectful. They were both mean and rude towards people. 6 He has accepted his nephew’s invitation to have Christmas dinner with him, he buys Mr. Cracketts family a big goose because they are in need of money, no because it takes more than three spirits to change your personality. **1/6/14** **Amaya S.** **Period#7** **What do you think?** **Yes: 1. Sports are embedded in schools in a way they are not almost anywhere else in the world. Yet this fact rarely comes up in conversations about why America lags behind other countries academically.** **Yes: 2. The state had threatened to shut it down for financial problems and academic failures. So superintendent Ernest Singleton made a bold decision, he canceled sports…//All of them.//** **Yes: 3. That first semester without sports, 80 percent of students passed their classes, compared to 50 percent the previous fall.**

** Scrooge description: scrooge is a stingy and disrespectful person who doesn’t care about anyone but himself. For example he declined an invitation to spend Christmas with his nephew and family. Also, he would not donate any money to charity and he would lower Mr. Cracketts paycheck even though he really needed the money because his family wouldn’t even have been able to buy a goose for the holidays let alone but a big goose. The fact that he does not care about Mr. Cracketts problem shows that he is disrespectful. Thankfully in the end he changes his ways now that he knows what will happen to him if he decides to continue be stingy and disrespectful. He donates a lot of money to charity, sends Mr. Cracketts a huge goose for the holidays and accepts the invitation to go have dinner with his family. **

Amaya silvas 12/16/13 There are differences between Mr. Scrooge from //the Christmas Carol// and Mr. Baldwin from Disney channel’s //Fish Hooks.// Mr. Scrooge is a disrespectful and stingy person who doesn’t appreciate what’s right in front of him. He takes his employee for granted and rudely declines his nephews’ invitation. Mr. Baldwin is a mean teacher who is sort of rude to his students. In the show he plays a sea horse in contrast to Mr. Scrooge who plays a sort of wealthy business man. Sometimes Mr. Baldwin is nice and helps his students. Mr. Scrooge in the end turns into a nice guy that donates to the poor and accepted his nephews’ invitation.

Scrooge persona: At first Mr. Scrooge is an ungrateful and stingy. He is ungrateful he wouldn’t give bob crackett a raise when he really needs one because his family is so in need of money they can’t even afford a big goose. He is stingy because he wouldn’t give money to the poor for charity. In the middle of the movie he does change a little when he starts to care about how little Timmy (bob cracketts son) is ill and may not live. When he is taken through his past, present, and future he learns that if he continues with his ungrateful attitude and his stinginess that he will eventually die. In the end of the movie he has change tremendously, he has gave bob crackett a raise and a huge goose for his Christmas feast, he gave a huge donation to the poor and needy, and he has taken the invitation to celebrate Christmas with his loving family. Now you see how he has changed throughout the movie.

//The Christmas Carol// and //The Pearl// both have their similarities and differences. First of all both //The Pearl// and //the Christmas Carol// have rich people and poor people, like how in //The Pearl// they had the rich and disrespectful doctor and Kino and Juana who are poor people in search for a magical pearl, in contrast to Mr. scrooge is rich but doesn’t use his money to help the poor and needy and how in his town there are lots of poor people who are willing to become thieves just to support their families. They both have a lot of similarities but they also have lots of differences to like, Mr. Scrooge eventually learns his mistakes and is willing to change but, in //The Pearl// the doctor doesn’t really care about his patients problems he only cares about money. Also, in //the Christmas Carol// they talk about many different poor and needy families, in contrast to //The Pearl// where the only poor people they talk about are Kino and Juana. Now you know the differences and similarities to //The Pearl// and //the Christmas Carol//.

There are both differences and similarities between the two books //Hush, Hush// and //Nevermore//. First of all in the book //Hush, Hush// it talks about an epic romance between Nora and Patch and how patch is a fallen angel who is doing anything he can to keep Nora safe. In contrast, in the book //nevermore// it talks about a bunch kids who are angels trying to stay alive because they are always being hunted down by people who want to do experiments on them. I know that both books talk about angels but a fallen angel and an angel are two completely different things. Also in the book //Hush, Hush// it only has one angel in contrast to the book //Nevermore// which has multiple angels in it. Similarly both of the books have epic romances and lots of action and adventure. Like in the book //Hush, Hush// they have an epic romance between Nora and Patch, and in the book //Nevermore// it talks about the main character who has fallen in love with a trader and someone who was literally made for her. As you can see both of these books have similarities and differences.

I am logical when it comes to writing notes and doing homework. I have evidence to show that he is not guilty. I had to infer that she was doing her work correctly. I have to imply that he did his work incorrectly. I told her that she has many personifications. I had to make a list of metaphors for homework. I had to synthesize some brownies for a bake sale. I used many apostrophes in my story. I had to write the theme for the story that we previously read. In school we learn lots about literature. My mother, father, and sister are coming to dinner tonight.

I like learning English, but it makes me tired.

My sister was taller than me when we were young, but now I am the tallest, and it is fun.

I love school, also I love learning, and my teacher is nice.

I don’t want much for Christmas; I just want some chocolates, and a toy car.

Blue is my favorite color because, it is the color of the sky, the sea, also it reminds of my favorite insect, which is a butterfly.

When I get older I want to have a big family, because I like big families.

We usually leave at 11:00, but today is different because we are leaving at 10:30.

I like Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and I like Fridays because the weekend starts on Fridays.

We should get moving, because there’s no time to waste.

Nevermore: In this epic novel finale, James Patterson has proven himself to be an amazing writer. He has made a tremendous ending to the maximum ride series. The maximum ride series revolved around a group of angels who were trying to live a normal life, but they were always facing challenges, mostly because of their incredible ability to do things that most normal people can do. They are being hunted down by scientist on a mission to do experiments on them due to their amazing abilities. Even though they aren’t normal they still go to school and sense no one knows about their ability they have nothing to fear.

1. The town is compared to a rich people town. I think that he compared it to that because the way that he lives. 2 it affects each a) b) and c) because they all have different reasons to want to take the pearl. 3 because everyone wanted the pearl.  4 Because when every saw how he got the pearl they hated him just like how the scorpion hated him.  5 he will but them a house and have coyotio go to school and that kino and juana will be married.  6 because when it senses evil it wants to be a part of it.

WHAT WOULD I DO WITH A MILLION DOLLARS$$$ If I had a million dollars I would mostly put it to good use like, I could donate to charities that need the money, or I could just give money to the poor and homeless civilians that are in need of money. I could also give the money to the corporation who are trying to cure cancer. All I know is I would definitely do the nice and responsible thing with a million dollars$$$

I was avarice when I took more candy then I was supposed to.

She sent her consolation by giving me a hug.

He was reassuring me by telling me that nobody was hurt in the incident.

Also the new project is due this Friday. I continued. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">You do know that George Washington was the first president, I stated. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">All students must remember that tomorrow is decade’s day, I announced. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">You have to make sure to multiply before you divide, I asserted. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">You did great on your public presentation, I commented. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">I think that you did not do this problem right, I declared. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">I saw that you did not do your homework when you were supposed to, I observed. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">You need to capitalize your sentences, I remarked. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">I saw that Tim pushed Kevin at recess, I reported.


 * <span style="font-family: 'Cambria','serif'; font-size: 18.6667px;">What is Victor’s goal in creating the creature? In what ways does he succeed and fail? His goal is to create life, he succeeds and creates life but the monster feels unloved and turns evil. **


 * <span style="font-family: 'Cambria','serif'; font-size: 18.6667px;">The creature claims, “Only misery made me a fiend.” What does he mean? Do you agree? Explain. He means that sense nobody loved him not even his own creator so he felt lonely and sad and the slightest thing can make him upset, I guess I could understand why misery turn him into a fiend but I couldn’t agree with him killing people out of rage. **


 * <span style="font-family: 'Cambria','serif'; font-size: 18.6667px;">Mr. De Lacey says, “Most people are friendly—unless they are blinded by prejudice.” What prejudice does the creature face? What does the play say about the effect of prejudice? People think his is a freak because of the way he looks. Well when the little boy was prejudice to frank he got so mad that he killed him. **
 * <span style="font-family: 'Cambria','serif'; font-size: 18.6667px;">Why does the creature want a companion like himself? Do you agree with Victor’s refusal to create one? Explain. He wants someone to love and that will also love him back, also having someone just like him will not make him feel lonely. I agree with victor’s refusal because if he created another one they would both kill people and victor would have worse guilt. **


 * <span style="font-family: 'Cambria','serif'; font-size: 18.6667px;"> Was it justifiable for the creature to murder Victor’s loved ones as a means of revenge? Explain. I do not think it was justifiable to kill his loved ones because it just made him feel bad and heart broken of his loss. **

 * <span style="font-family: 'Cambria','serif'; font-size: 21.3333px;">The day started like any other day except for this particular day was different in a way, a way I just couldn’t explain. I woke up and got ready for school but I just couldn’t help that it felt different then a regular day then, “hey girl” said Lola the only one I could trust with any secret anything in general, so I knew I could tell her about how I was feeling. “Hey, can I tell you something” I said nervously. “Anything, what’s on your mind” she said. “Well, I’ve been feeling weird this morning”, I said. “Do you feel like you are going to throw up”, she said. “No, I’ve just been feeling different like something is different with my regular day. “Maybe it’s the way you parted your hair, I mean I love the old parted to the right but the daring parted on the left is so bold and daring”, she said laughing at the same time. **


 * <span style="font-family: 'Cambria','serif'; font-size: 21.3333px;">The one thing I knew wasn’t going to be different is my day at school. I know high school is good for you because these are your final grades so you can get into a good college, but really is it worth it. I mean the only thing that can ruin my day is… “Oh if it isn’t little Katrina” said Carly. “Oh look she thinks that parting her hair on the left is going to make herself look cuter, wait what am I saying she was never cute.”, said Lindsay. Oh I’ve hated them sense elementary school. They would always tease me and taught me. “Come on leave her alone”, said Louis, now I’ve known him sense the third grade. “Hi Louis”, said Lindsay acting like she likes him just because I like him, see with Lindsay whatever I wanted she wanted and she wanted Louis and I am not going to let that happen. **


 * <span style="font-family: 'Cambria','serif'; font-size: 21.3333px;">“So did you catch the game on Friday”, said Lindsay twirling her hair like she’s a princess. “No, I’m not a big fan of sports, can you believe it”, said Louis totally rejecting her. “Ok then”, said Lindsay walking away like she didn’t care even though I knew I killed her inside. “Hey Louis “, I said hoping that he would reply. “Hey Katrina”, he said smiling while he went in for the hug. “Thanks for saving me back there”, I said as we started to walk to class. “Oh it was nothing I’m just doing my duty as life saver”, he said as he put his arm over me. I mean I know that right now we are just friends but I seriously think I’m melting inside. **


 * <span style="font-family: 'Cambria','serif'; font-size: 21.3333px;">It was lunch time and Lola and I always sit at are usual table but for the first time Louis and his friend Sam sat with us. “Hey guys”, said Sam all excited like he had something interesting to tell us. “So did you hear about the haunted house in our area?” said Sam. “You do know that ghosts aren’t real, right”, I said. “Listen to this, a loving couple move in to a nice welcoming house only to be found dead”, said Sam. “That’s not proof that’s just gossip”, I said. “Well get this, the house originally was owned by the Jenner’s, it was set to believe that one day they all went crazy and started killing people and then eventually killed themselves so they believe other people think that something or someone killed them”, said Sam. “Wow, you actually believe in that junk”, I said. “Yeah, man you don’t actually think that stuff is real, do you?” said Louis looking at me and smiling. “How about we find out for ourselves, if you don’t believe me then I bet you can’t last three hours in that place”, said Sam. “Oh I’ll take that bet”, I said. “We all go to the Jenner house tonight…” he started to say until. “You guys are going to the Jenner house tonight, but that place is like haunted”, said Carly. “Can we come with you guys?” said Lindsay looking and smiling at Louis. “Well um actually”, I started to say until Sam had to say “Sure two more guests won’t hurt anything”, said Sam. “Great, will see you guys tonight”, said Carly walking away with a smile on her face. “See you later Louis”, said Lindsay walking away laughing. **
