 * 1)  Yes I do have friends that have more money than me. Sometimes when they have something that I don’t have I want it but I don’t get it but we are still friends. I also have some friends that are different ethnic from me and sometimes when I want to go to their house I can’t because they are doing something.

Bryan Rios 12-17-13 Scrooge Questions > 6. He will change because he sees what the ghosts will do to him and sees what will happen to him. Yes, because if they see that people will be nicer to them if they are nice to them.
 * 1) I think the meanest thing that Scrooge did was when he yelled at his nephew, because he is part of his family, and he doesn’t have to yell if he said Merry Christmas.
 * 2) Jacob Marley was Scrooge’s partner at work. Marley was a very nice person when he was alive, because it said kind stuff about him. Marley and Scrooge had stuff in common like they both had the same job, and they serious at work and about work.

They are hated the same three people named Brady, Thomas, and Seth. They lived in Boston. They all know themselves since preschool and had always hated each other. They live in the same neighborhood and their parents were friends. The three friends would never talk to the other three friends, because they don’t even try to know each other. When they were old enough to go to college, since they didn’t know the plans of the others. They all decided to move to San Diego for college. They never thought they would be in the same college but it happened to be that was the best college in the world at the moment. They were so alike that they choose the same career. One day Max, Bob and Chase noticed that some of their new friends were not going to school and wondered why. They called them and they said they were hurt, and sick. Then one day they saw that Brady, Thomas, and Seth were the ones that were hurting their friends. So they went over to them and asked them why they were hurting people. They said because it was fun watching other people get hurt, cry and run home. Then they asked why their friends and they said because they hated them. Chase asked them why they didn’t hurt them. Seth answered because they were too strong to get bullied. Bob jumped in and said let’s fight after school and see who’s stronger. Thomas accepted for his squad. So after school they went to Brady’s house because it was the closest to the school. When they got there they didn’t fell like fighting and Chase said let’s play a sport to see who’s a better athlete. They made a pact and whoever was the winner will tell the loser what to do. They all decided to play soccer because there was a very nice, good soccer field in the university and it was a sport they play since they were younger. It was a big event they invited all his friend, they even have cheerleaders for each team. On the big day they got a soccer ball and went out to the beautiful soccer fields. They played 3 on 3 and up to 10 goals. Brady’s team started out winning 5-0. Chase’s bounded right back and tied it. It all looked that Brady’s team was going to win because the score was 9-5 and then that’s when Chase’s team got better and turned the whole game around and won 10-9. It was the best game it could have been ever. It also had the best ending ever, because it looked as if Brady’s team was going to win. The ball was on the line and Max saved it and passed it to Bob and passed it to Chase and he made a goal. Brady, Seth, and Thomas had to stop bulling Max, Bob and Chase friends. They even became friends for a while. They would go to each other’s houses after school. Little by they started become better and better friends. One day Max, Bob, and Chase notice that they were acting very wired like they were animals, but they like their friendship, so after 3 years in San Diego the 6 friends were about to get out of college and get to move on with their lives. There were still going to be very good friends even if they didn’t see each other frequently. They were crying when they got out of the school because it was the best day of their life. They were very happy because all of them had just got through all their school years with their best friends. So when that day ended they all left to different city. One day they all called each other and deiced to hang out for a day or two in San Diego because they had loved it there. They all agreed to meet and that night they brought their tickets to San Diego. When they all were there they almost got there at the same time. They deiced to go to the beach because it was a beautiful day. Max, Bob, and Chase just change and go in for a swim; Seth, Thomas, and Brady however do not change and don’t do it. Then when Max, Bob, and Chase came out and ask why they don’t go in. They answered because they didn’t like water. So when they were sleeping Max, Bob, and Chase went up to them and tossed them into the water. When they got wet people discovered new stuff about Seth Thomas, and Brady that they were animals. Bob, Chase and Max asked why they didn’t tell them they were animals they answered because they didn’t want too. Chase, Max, Bob got mad at them and attacked them. Thomas, Brady and Seth were prepared and stopped them. They all broke up and fought against one another. Then Thomas, Brady, and Seth got the others stuck in a net. It all looked as it was about to end because they were taking out the guns to kill them. All of a sudden they got out of the net. They went so fast at them they took the guns away. When they shot and hit them nothing happened so Chase’s team would have to find another way to hurt or kill them. When Thomas’s team was walking backwards they got trapped in their own net. Max team got a bomb and put it by them and Thomas, Brady, and Seth died. After that day they all went back to where they lived and every now and then they would meet with each other. They lived happily ever after. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 32px; text-align: center;">The End

My characters would be Max, Bob, Chase would be the good guys. The bad guy would be Brady, Thomas, and Seth. The setting would start at a school, them go to the beach, and end in the street. The goal for Max, Bob, Chase is to stop Brady, Thomas, and Seth from effect the city. They are going out and hurting people. The rising action is when they find out that Brady, Thomas, and Seth are also animals and cannot die by getting shot by bullets. The climax is when Max, Bob, Chase get trapped, and Brady, Thomas, and Seth get ready to kill them but they get out. The Resolution is that Max, Bob, Chase go at them from different part and trapped them and put a bomb and Brady, Thomas, and Seth die.

Bryan Rios 10-15-13 Why steroids are bad ==A future mlb pitcher dies but why. Taylor Hooton hangs himself and dies because he was using anabolic-androgenic steroids. He had developed acne and was going to a psychiatrist because he was becoming moody and depressed. Steroids gave acne on face, back, and chest. It also gives you permanent baldness, stunt growth, liver damage, cancer, and heart disease. They can also lead to change in your behavior, and irrational thinking.== ==Steroids are banned in professional sports. They are banned because it is performance enhancing drugs. Athletes use them to build muscle and endurance. There are a lot of athletes that have used steroids like Lance Armstrong who was banned for cycling for the rest of his life. Roger Clemens was also caught using steroids, Mark McGwire, Alex Rodriguez, and Barry Bonds. Even a lady was caught using steroid which was Marion Jones a track runner.==
