When I'm angry...
When I'm angry I usually like to go work out. The reason is I can get my stress out in a way that I am not hurting anyone and it benefits me anyways. I don't really get angry a lot but when I do, expect me to be outside sweating my butt of and lifting weights. I also like to punch a punching bag but I don't have gloves yet so I have pretty much no feeling in my knuckles anymore.

Movies Can Do More Than Entertain
I watched the movie "Facing The Giants" and it changed me. The movie is about a coach who is trying to bring christianity to his football team. When his team fanilly falls into the whole christianity thing, they make an unstoppable run to the title game against the best team in the world, the Giants. It was 64 players against the small 18 man team. The last play was a 50 yard feild goal to win the game, but it was left up to the rookie kicker who has only made 3/4 20 yarders. The kid doesnt believe it but when he prays to god that he would win it, the wind direction changed in his favor and blew the ball straight into the uprights winning the game. I've alway sbelieved in god, but this movie told me that I wasnt involved enough with god, I thought about getting baptised, but i am going to wait till im absolutly certain its what I want.
TU Tuesday - Presidential Speeches
Goerge Washingtons Farewell address impacted the world in the way like no other, it changed the country.
“...overgrown military establishments, which, under any form of government, are inauspicious to liberty, and which are to be regarded as particularly hostile to Republican Liberty.”
to me this quote would have sparked an arguement between republican and democratic parties. I feel that Washington wanted to stop with all the fighting and just worry about the country instead of killing people.

They definitly nailed the dot on the first bullet, we took almost half of our time there looking at every different group and learned about it. I never really had a problem with being a bully myself, but I was bullied because of my group. And me and the people in my group got to share how we felt and it felt good to let it all out. We didn't really talk a lot about the second bullet, but they definitly didnt forget it, we went over how you should act and what you should do. They taught us a lot of being proud for our group because we are who we are, nobody can change that. When Nadine and a couple others shared their stories, it was very brave and it showed me a lot, people are very cruel and don't reall;y care about others feelings and it hurt to know that someone could do that much damage to one person. We learned some hands-on tools like going to the administration (doesn't work) and going to your teachers and to let them know what is going on.
Green Blog
It's not easy being green
blending with the leaves
and when I walk by a shrub
Im just unseen
It's not easy being green
everybody thinks i'm very lucky
they ask me for my pot of gold
and ask me for a treat or two
and maybe even a couple wishes
I may be green but you know what else
what about the guy over there
the girl over here
or the lady over there
why does it have to be me
But something great about being green
I always have attention on me
I always have a couple bucks
I always have a lot of friends
I always have a pot of luck
Most of all, I like to be green.

TU Tuesday: Local
http://www.timesunion.com/local/article/Privatization-proposed-for-nursing-home-3384046.php
The article I read is about privatizing nursing homes. basically telling elderly people, we are not funding you anymore. After reading the quote that is above, I was in shock. If we are so out of money, why do you keep building things? We can pay billions in tax dollars and it can't even go to our relatives and elders? It's inhuman to take away nursing home fundings because they can't live on their own, that is why they are there.
"The reality is the county is close to running out of money. We need to borrow to keep cash flowing," McCoy said.

Guest Speaker: Janinne Cammarata
She gave the audience a poise that she was comfertable by the way she interacted with us and made eye contect with us. She also at one point walked around the room. She always excepted any comments. She pronounced words very clearly and she used very easy and understandable points and ideas to draw in us as the listener. She spoke loudly so everyone could hear and if someone couldn't hear, she spoke louder. She had very good tips on how to become a writer and what is the easiest things to do to create a character bio and to figure out what your story should be about. She has us help her describe a bunch of pictures of people from a magazine and then had as try and put a story together. She always put the peices together to try and let us follow her in the discussion and when she was reading from the book, she explained what was going on after she was finished with what she had read.
I gave her my complete attention and made eye contact the whole time. Whenever she asked if anyone had questions, I would raise my hand if I had one. When I asked my question, I said it very loud and clear. I thought of questiions to ask her throughout the conversations to try and keep a mindset in order and to really capture the knowledge and experience.

After reading about this author, I cannot wait for her to come in. I love reading about fantasy and fiction novels. They have always intrigued me and it is the only genre I will read. When i was younger i always read things about monsters and demons and things we all knew weren't real, but hey, everyone has their imagination.
“Janine De Tillio Cammarata dreams us back into an age of wars and intrigues among gods, mortals and faerie folk in old Ireland, and reminds us that ancient dramas can interplay with modern lives."
After reading that quote on the website, I knew i'd want to read this book.
"She and her family live in upstate New York with their lab/akita mix Zoey Shadow."
After finding out that she lived in the Upstate, I was thrilled to ask her questions on where she lived and grew up.
Where to you grow up?
What was your favorite part about writing the book?

W= Wendy's
Well wendy's is one of my favorite fast food places to go. One reason is because they have food that isnt fake and it is kind of healthy for you while at the same time resembling what is "fast food". Now-a-days, people classify fast food as something bad for you. Well any pizza place that you pick up stuff is fast food because just what "fast food" means, YOU GET IT FAST. I absolutly hate when people say "ew you eat fast food". Well duh! I dont want to wait there for it. Anyways, one of the best things on Wendy's menu is got to be the chicken sandwich. It has fried chicken, mayo, lettace, tomato, and then onions if you would like. Also another great thing to order is their milkshakes, I love their milkshakes.
