6A Whats a name?

My name means to go forward or to ford. In comes from old English. I really like my name the only thing i do not like about it is that it gets confused with Wayne a lot and i do not like that. I was born on February 12 which is Abraham Lincoln’s birthday so my parents thought about naming me Honest Abe, which i would not have minded. My parents would have named me Violet if i was a girl. I would have liked Clyde because of the horses and how they look. I would rather keep the name my parents gave me.

Week 5A " If i were..."

If I was a car i would have to be a brand new 09 Dodge Ram 2500, Cummins engine, with extended cab, long bed. I would like to be this truck because it would be an awesome truck because of all the work you could do with it. I would use it for everything you could think about because i live on a farm. I would put huge mudding tires on and a lift kit. Since it is a diesel i would also put big stacks on it just to make it look cool. I would drive it each and everyday because it would be awesome.

Week 4a "nature vs. nurture"

I believe that our greatest determining factor in the way we act is how our parents and older siblings brought us up into the terrible and cold world we live in today. Like some parents believe that we should attend church regularly because that is how they were raised. I believe that if we are how we are today because of our genetic heritage would be impossible because of all that cannot shape who you are. By having your parents teach you your entire life on how to act, the rules that they engraved into your mind will always be there as long as you live and are sane.

3a A star is born

If i had to be the main character in a movie it would have to be Luke Skywalker. I would like to be him because he has a awesome part with a whole bunch of action movie. i would have to learn how to do flips and turns really fast and how to use a light saber. I would shoot it in Africa because of all the different terrains and all of the desserts. I would were a long black wardrobe with a mask i could put over my face to keep my face from being sun burnt. My costars would have to be my two younger brothers because they are very good at fighting with light sabers.

Week 2a Creative costums

The best time of Halloween is all the candy. One time i got a whole bag of candy and was very happy with my self. My best costume would have to be when i was batman. My mom made me the best cape out of felt. It was jet black and very long. When i would run the cape would fly out behind me. It would make me feel like i was flying. Another time i was Indiana Jones. I had black cowboy boots. A long rawhide whip, black leather jacket and a hat. It looked really cool and i loved it.

week1a Musics Defines you

The music we listen to in our society today is very different and diverse. It explains how the average person in America lives, or the hard life of farmers or soldiers. Other music is about how a certain person loves these one other person and is explaining how they love them. The music in some ways is the same as slave songs, because they could be explaining how they love or hate these certain things. Another thing about the music is that most slaves knew almost all of the songs. While there are so many songs know, it would be impossible to learn all of them.

Week 6 Making a comback

I have been through many setbacks. For example, this summer i was helping my dad drive fence posts with a post driver. I missed with the post driver and silt my arm open down to the muscle. It really hurt and my mom rushed me to the hospital. It ended up that i had to get 21 stitches in my arm and 5 in my hand. I was not supposed to get it wet for 24 hours. i would not be able to get them out for another two weeks. When i finally got them out my arm was week from not using it. I had to slowly rebuild the muscle. I got through this setback and many more to come.

Week 5 Grizzly you

For the next 6 months I plan on spending my time in the wilderness on the outskirts of Armington. My dad owns farm ground around there in the country and we have timber ground there. I expect to see all sorts of different types of animals and plants. I will probably see deer, rabbits, coyotes, mice, moles, ground squirrels and much more. the plants i expect to see are a whole bunch of trees, poison ivy and many more. When i come out of it i will be a changed person. I will not kill birds with my bb gun.

Week 4 Dumb laws

In Alaska there is a law that states that you can not view moose from an airplane. How is this possible? You can not help if you see a moose through the window of an airplane by accident.
In Arizona it is illegal to be under the age of 18 and have more than one missing tooth when you smile. How could you help from getting in an accident or in a fist fight and accidently get two front teeth knocked out?
In Connecticut, a pickle can only be called a pickle if it can bounce. That is a stupid law because of a pickle will taste the same if it can or cannot bounce.

Week 3 About my school

my school is located in the middle of a corn field out it the country. The best thing about our school is that we have lots of different actvities that we are able to do. The worst thing would have to be the long bus rides all of us have to take because of our big school district. We always have Homecoming, prom and many others things that we do. For example we have kiss the pig during homecoming because of our ruarl based area. There is a whole bunch of different types of dress manerisms throughout Olympia Highschool. There are the FFA members who have hick clothes on, then the instyle clothes, then there are the sport people who were sport clothes.

Week 2 Special Meeting

The person I would like to meet the most would have to be my dads’ dad or my Grandpa. My parents had not even met before until after he passed away. I have always heard that he loved to work and I love to work and help my dad in any way possible. If he was anything like my father, then I would have loved to meet him, just to sit down with him and hold a conversation with him about all the things that have happened to him throughout the course of the years on the farm. Some times I feel left out because I only have one set of Grandparents, while most people have two.

Week 1 Hows School?

School isn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. It still isn’t the best thing in the world, but is doable. I would much rather be at home helping my father work on the farm. My least favorite class would have to be Spanish because I don’t like studying a foreign language. I like the teacher, Mr. Hireo, but not the class. My favorite class would have to be Drivers ED. because of all the fun things we do in it. My favorite teacher would be Mr. Brigham because he makes things that I wouldn’t normally like into likeable and enjoyable things.
