When you’re healthy then you might not have a better chance to getting these things. About 400,000 deaths per year that are associated with obesity. Did you know about 60% of American’s don’t get any exercise today. Even though that they restaurants may tempt you to eat my having toys in the happy meals, playgrounds, birthday parties, a character, and maybe cartoons you still shouldn’t eat it. You can eat it sometimes like once or twice a month. In the last 20-25 years obesity has doubled the numbers. The liver helps you filter things in your body and store the extra sugars and releases them when you need it but if you’re obese then you are damaging your liver.

SHORT/LONG TERM GOALS 4/8/14 Short term goals for me would be to pull up all my grades and have more participation in school events and with home events as well. Most the time in school I don’t participate and I should more and maybe that will make my grades come up and I will have a better time in school. I should get into more sports because now im only in 1 and I want to do 2 or 3. I teach the kids classes and i want to keep doing it for a long time because i think the kids really like it and it help me learn how to do with people.

Long term goals for school I want to make my grades A’s and B’s then keep them that way. I want to keep teaching the kids at my marshal arts that I do. I would love to help out around different places and maybe start work when im 15 or 16 not a big job where it takes up along time but like a job were I can get paid and still have time for my school work and have time for friends and family. Another one is to stay in my program and start volley ball and stay in it during high school.


 * Haley story from a point of view of an animal **

I stood up high reaching for the treesto have a great meal. My long neck reached up to leafy green leaves. My babycalf was born with a short neck and had a possibility of dying because of notgetting to reach up to the high tall trees. But each day she gets stronger and stronger but there is still a chance of dying. I try hard each day to be strong for her and support her. I then thought of an idea. I have a long neck and I can reach the trees and my baby calf. I don’t think a giraffe like me has ever thought of that.

It was then time to try my idea. I reached up as high as I can to reach the trees

and the leafy trees. When I got the leaves I then bent my neck down to give my

baby calf the food. She was very sick and needed something to eat, but I knew

that when I gave her the leaves she seemed very hungry and ready to eat. I then

gave her much more because she had a day of starving. I would do this every

morning when we awoke and also every night. I then saw my baby calf getting

better and better each day. Day after day she recovered from starving. I would

feed her each and everyday. She became healthy and her neck grew and grew

to the point where I didn't have to feed her and she would reach up herself. It

was a great change, seeing her sick to seeing her recover and grow.

Questions for the poem “IF” 4/21/14


 * 1) **1.** The hardiest conditions to be able to fulfill would be “being lied about don’t deal the lies.” That would be hard because if your getting lied about and you know who is starting it you would want to say something or make up something about it. Its not easy dealing with stuff like that and it could really mess things up with a friend or give you a reputation. The easiest one would probably be none I cant pick one in all of them you have to face a challenge and you can either be successful or fail up to you.
 * 2) **2**. (1) If you can think you – and not make thoughts your aim.

 * 6.** Can young people relate of course there is so much bullying going on and with this poem it can have them relize that you can either look good and become the popular one so kinda mean kids or you can be not so popular and be a really nice and respectful kid. Either way you will become a man or women and you have to decide what your going to be like in the future and where you want to go in life.

Two years from now I will be going to school at Madison High school and I will be in 9th grade. I’ll be at school going to all my classes and hanging out with all the same friends I had in seventh grade. It’s a cold wet day and I’m upset because my hair is getting ruined right after I just did my hair for the day.

The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton is an excellent book. It’s about a boy who’s parents die and he has to live with his 2 brothers Darry and Soda. Soda is the only one that understands Ponyboy and can talk to him. He and his brothers are in a gang and they are always getting into fights and Pony isn’t the fighting type. He doesn’t get along with his oldest brother Darry. He’s never happy with his grades when he has really good ones.

Ponyboy runs away during the book and after his friend kills someone he relizes he doesn’t like fighting and tries to have everyone stop fighting. When Johnny dies he really falls apart him and johnny were like best friends. It says that when darry yells at Ponyboy “ ponyboy usually just sat there and listen to him when he yelled but now hes starting to yell back”. This shows that the character is changing.

2/25/14 the monkeys paw  In the story "The Monkey's Paw," Sergeant Major Morris foreshadows the bad fortune brought by the monkey’s paw. When the White family asked about a 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 was for death. That's how I got the paw." In the story he also tells them “ and there was something special about it as he took it away from the son and placed it on the table.” When he really doesn’t want them to take it after they said they want it he starts dropping little hint like “ better where you are,” said sergeant- major, shaking his head.

Compare 2 different tv shows. The show //The Fosters// and //Jessie// are alike because they have foster kids and they have to make themselves feel at home and overcome being shy. They are different because in Jessie they get the kids when they are babies besides 1 of them he was like 10. In Jessie the parents are always gone and they have a nanny that takes care of them.

In The Fosters they get 2 twins (brother and sister) when there like 6 and 9. Then they already have 1 boy so then they have 3 kids. After a while then one of the moms goes to an officer and she is asked if she would take a 16 year old home and she said yes she didn’t know the 16 year old had a 11 year old brother so then they end up with 4 teenagers and a preteen. That’s how these shows are alike and different.

1/18/14 In my elementary school 5th and 6th graders had lunch on school grounds and we could listen to music sometime as well. We had recess, and at lunch we would play for 20 min then eat lunch for another 20 min.

In the seventh grade we have 7 different teachers and 7 different classes. In seventh grade we also have no recess before lunch. On the seventh grade school there are no play grounds. We have no music teachers and no music lessons. Sometimes you can listen to music in class with the teachers permission and headphones.

12/14 I fell that if Chris Brown and Rihanna get back together that will be bad because he hits her and she keeps going back. He is a abuser and no women should ever get treated like that. Women deserve to get treated with respect and kindness If a man really loves a women he would never lay one hand on her. I think she should have never gone back in the first place.

2/9/14 song Firework. The song firework has a great meaning it means that if your shy and scared you dont need to be everyones diffrent in there own way. Some people are short, tall, skinny, thick. Everyones there own person and nobodys perfect. When she says " baby your a firework comon let your colors burst" shes telling to theres no reason for you to be scared of life.

Reformatory means like juvenile hall. I say that because he said that he didn’t want to go to the reformatory.

Bewildering means fast and confused. Because in the book, he said that things were going by so fast, he didn’t know what was happening.

Corn-Pony means not that bright. In the book it said that the farmer made a little no sense as Hank Williams.

Premonition means scary and uncomfortable. In book Ponyboy said it was creepy in the church. Then he called it a “Premonition type of place” because it was abandoned.

symbols 2/3/14 The symbol of a foot ball team is to show thats who they are and thats them. Like the San Diego chargers, the charger bolt shows they are fast and can do it. The 49ers they logo is 49 that shows that they are the 49ers and they represent there home. Each and every team symbol they picked for a reason and that reason may have something to do with there home and who they are.

I will sit at my desk in my room and even if I don’t have homework I will study for a quiz we might have soon, reread things we did that day, and if I can even turn in work early.

I have a desk in my room so I can always go in there and do my homework instead of at the table. Also when we have test I need to study at least 30 min a night for that. In the morning of a test I can review with a friend while im with them and have them tell me what I can get on the test to see how well I will do. I will ask if there is any thing I can do along with the homework for extra credit.

__**//BEST WRITING PIECE//**__

How do these conditions affect your relationship? Yes, I have a couple friends actually. It doesn’t affect our relationship at all because I don’t treat her different at all I treat her as if she was just like me and had the same stuff as me. I think having a phone or not having a phone doesn’t matter or how rich you are or poor. We both had almost the same childhood. I think hers was little worse but that didn’t mean I only wanted to be her friend because I can relate. I chose to be her friend because she’s caring, nice, and has a great personality.
 * 1/15/14**
 * 1. Do you have friends whose social, ethnic, or economic backgrounds differ from yours?**

2**. To what extent does a person’s environment determine their success and happiness? Is it possible to overcome your environment? If so, how?** I think the persons environment matters a lot because what if they grew up in a place where there shootings. When people are at school I think they need to feel welcome and know there not an outsider and they fit in. I believe that people can get over there environment. How? Well you can work on talking to people more and feeling like they matter which everyone does.

A gang is like a family because they take care of each other and are always going to look out for each other. They always will be there or make them feel better after getting bullied in this case mugged. A member of the gang can feel like you have an older brother/sister or even younger brother/sister. They will do anything for one another and will love them.
 * 3. How is a gang like a family?**

To make someone a hero you have to prove to people you’re loyal and responsible. You also have to do something no one will forget. If you save someone’s life or multiple people’s lives its stuff like that. Everyone has a personal hero it can be anyone to an actor to even your own mom and dad. It’s all up to what that person did and how you will remember it and tell people when they ask you.
 * 4. What do you think it takes to make someone a hero?**

An outsider is someone who is unwanted or feels like a misfit like they don’t belong. They feel like a tagalong like they HAVE to be there with them. Someone who has an older brother or sister and like mom says come on take you little brother/sister with you. When they go everyone makes them feel like a tagalong and they can’t do what the older kids can do.
 * 5. What is your definition of an “outsider?”**



12/18/13


 * 1.In your opinion what is the meanest thing scrooge does in act 1. Explain your answer**. In act 1, scrooge was very mean to his nephew. When his Nephew tried to say marry Christmas he would say “Bah! Humbug!” Mr.Scrooge was judging his nephew on how he was married and Scrooge didn’t agree to that kind of stuff.


 * 2.Who is Jacob marley? What clues does Marley give about his pearsonality as a living person? When Marley was living in what ways were he and Scrooge alike?** Jacob Marley is a spector. Jacob gave us many clues like how when he was alive he acted like Mr.Scrooge. Mr. scrooge and him were alike because they both only cared for money and wanted there work done and they both were greedy.


 * 6. What hints are given the Scrooge may change for the better? Do you think people personalities can change dermaticly?** When ghost of Christmas future comes to talk to Scrooge and takes him to the grave stone you know something bad is going to happen. Once Scrooge asks to show him who it is and he see’s his name he knows he needs to change. I think people personalities can change dermaticly it depends on the person. If they are nice and sweet or mean and grumpy all the time.

12/16/13
 * Compare Christmas Carol to anything.**

The //Christmas Carol// and //Pretty Little Liars// are alike because they both have a really mean person that changes at the end. One of the main characters in Pretty Little Liars is mean and threating the other main characters. In Christmas Carol the main character is mean and doesnt want to do anything for anyone. For example Pretty Little Liars they will get gifts from A and there not good gifts. In Christmas Carol Scrooge is a bitter old man.

Another way they are alike is because they both have someone that is hurt and was on the verdge of dieing. In Pretty Little Liars there are 5 girls and one is about to die. In Christmas Carol the little boy Tim Cratchet has a bad leg and has to use a cane and he isnt doing well and if he doesnt get money to pay for it and if Scrooge will pay him more.

10 hard word with guesses. pg. 600-608 1; Specter = pearson that inspects you 2; Legatee= old term for cool 3; Solemnized= a type of term for something 4; Wheezing= what you do when your sick 5; Pitifully= faking like it/ someone 6;Bedlam= something that attaches to your bed 7; Parliament- a argument 8; Occupie- type of business 9; Destitute- telling people things 10; Abundance- a lot

12/10/13 Mr.Scrooge change alot through out the movie. When he got visted by 3 ghosts and the last ghost of Christmas future, showed him his grave stone. He changed and begged to ghost and told him he will change. So Mr.Scrooge changed and gave tim and tims family a duck for there Christmas dinner.

Once Mr.Scrooge relizes that being mean and when he turns down donating to the poor is wrong and had a talk with the ghost, he relizes what he needs to do. So the next day he donates, is wishing everyone a Marry Christmas and being happy. He knows he wont be alone and that good wishes will come to him.

Compare Christmas Carol and Pearl. The Christmas Carol and the Pearl have a lot in common. They both have a greedy man and then a very nice man with a caring wife and children. Mr. Scrooge and the #|doctor in the pearl both are mean, bitter, and only care about them selves. Kino and Bob Cratchet both try to #|support the family and care for the family. The thing they have different about the movies are that at the end Mr. Scrooge changes and the doctor doesn't. Once Mr. Scrooge finds out whats going to happen he changes because he doesn't want to be hated and he wants to live a happy life and not die like the ghost says.

12/5/13 E. Scrooge

Mr. Scrooge was a cheep,and a little bit rude. You can tell because when a man asks him to donate to the poor he says " what there are no prisions"? Thats how you can tell he is a cheep and a little bit rude. When he was a kid he was neglectied by his dad because his mother dies during child birth so him father was like mad at him, and he had no friends. He #|loved his books and on Christmas when he was a kid he was in the church all alone and only had his books.

Mr. Scrooge was also cheep because when he was selling his corn he had meet with some people and they had agreed on a price but at the last minute he raised the prise and when they said no he walked away, but they said " Scrooge deal" and he got his money. E. Scrooge was viseted by a ghost and he has this saying " bad food makes you see things" so thats what he thought about the ghosts.

12/3/13 a show ive watched is pretty little liars, its a very good show and has good detail and good climax, and problem and solution. Another show that is good that is just like that is The Vampire Diaries. they both have the same kind of meaning and idea. In the Vampire Diaries they do many thing like 2 people are in love but the brother gets in the way and messes the relationship up. In pretty little liars the student and teacher are in love but he is bad and is mean to them.

Pretty little liars is a good show and so is The Vampire Diaries and they all mean the same. A couple things differant is that in Pretty Little Liars, is that A girl is in love with the teacher and no one is trying to mess with them but he is bad. In The Vampire Diaries 2 people are in love but the brother is trying to make them split up. So they are simialar shows and kinda have the same meaning its just a few diffrences.

Scary story 10/20/13 The missing boy

Mom yeah I can’t wait for an hour! My game is today. Yey good luck I know your goanna win. Thanks mom I love you. Hey if you win I will take your whole team out for pizza then ice cream. OK!! Ok Devin lets go to your baseball game we have 30 min to get there. Ok im coming. Mom we won are we going to go. Yes lets go. Come on guys lets go to get pizza and ice cream. Ok the team said. This is the best after part ever. Can I have some friends over mom? Sure why not she said. So the team came over for a sleep over. Its 10 guys maybe we should go to bed. Ok they say. So everyone lays down and all they hear is BOOM BOOM BOOM and they scream like little girls.

Devin what is that? I don’t know but im scared. DEVIN DEVIN COME HERE says this voice no one has ever heard before. No go away go away. Please. NO YOUR MINE. Mommy helps us help us. Mrs. Fifer help us help us. What is this why did he pick us why. Please help. The thing goes away and then they fell asleep and they hear it again. What is that noise? Or who is this please just leave me alone. im only 10 please go away. "NEVER YOUR MINE". "Ok ill do what you want just leave my friends and family alone".

Mrs. Fifer ran into the room and all the kids were sound asleep nothing wrong and everyone there, so she thought. This kid named jimmy that was on the team was gone. He has brown hair, blue eyes, and he was kind of chubby. When Mrs. fifer had counted and thought she saw everything for jimmy it was a body buddy. So everyone stays sleeping for the night and when they wake up in the morning its about 9 am. They notice jimmies gone and Devin runs to his mom and she starts to freak out because she lost someone’s kid. So she calls all the moms for each kid and they all come.

When Jimmy's mom arrives its not good... she was freaking out because she couldn’t find her baby boy and she was already having a bad enough day. She told they mom " my kids are never coming over here again and they are not to hang out anymore even at practice. " listen I had no idea this was going to happen when I came and checked on then at like 1 they were all there sleeping". '' Well there not all here now are they!!" "Calm down we will find him I promise,” said Devin. So half them go outside looking and the others stay at home looking and seeing if he will come back. An hour or two passed and there was no sign of Jimmy everyone was very sad and so finally the mom called the cops and they came down to the house as fast as possible and a helicopter was out and a such team. That day passed and so everyone went home sad and his mom went home crying.

Later that night Devin hears the voices again and then it says " I have him you want him give me something in return" and so he did. Within that hour he was back. So he ran to him mom-saying mom Jimmy's back. So she called Jimmy's mom and she came over ASAP and cried because she was so happy to see her son. They went home and they moved out of their house and they never were bothered again with anything like that. Devin stayed in baseball and him and his team was cool. Everyone was happy and they made it to the biggest championship game and they won 45-12!

5 years later….. they are all 15 now and devins friend jimmy is expeiancing the same this as when they were 10. But this time it was his girlfriend. She had came over for dinner with jimmy and they go upstairs to watch a movie. Then jimmy goes to the bathroom and comes out his girlfriends gone. They find the body on the kitchen table then call the cops but she has no marks or anything. Her death was never salved and it remaind a mystory.
