The differences between //The Outsiders// movie and book are that they left out and added a few different scenes that weren’t in the book. One of those added scenes was when the kids came up to Dally, Ponyboy, and Johnny and asked for 15 cents.

Right now, I have a B in this English class. I used to have an A, but I got a 25 out of 50 on the PowerPoint Song Analysis. The reason I got an F on it was because I forgot to save it before I uploaded it and I lost all of my work. I am going to make sure next time that I save my work then upload.

It Has Begun….

“The date was 4/27/1964 when we were deployed. We were deployed in Laos, Vietnam. When we got there, with our troop of 80, I hadn’t gotten of the Chinook yet when the RPG’s formed a rocket brigade. It hit the Chinook with the worst sound. Berrik, Batowski, Leroy, and I had barely survived the shell shocking days in that camp,” “What camp?” said the guy shining the light at me. “One of the camps in Laos, you idiot.' I thought,” I shouldn’t have done that,' as he dislocated my last finger on my right hand. “ Tell me where the camp was!” said the man in the shadow’s. I was just waiting for the right time when he walked over to break my thumb on left hand. What am I going to do, what am I going to do…

All in one motion, I kicked the interrogator, turned him around, hooked him with my chain and broke his neck. After that, I relocated my fingers. That was not the first time I needed to kill someone to evade suffering, but I needed to. When I looked in the shadows, there were body’s that were either unconscious or dead, I couldn’t tell. I grabbed the interrogators knife, to cut off the chains, and his gun, to protect myself from the “inhabitants.” The inhabitants are people, who have been injected with a special serum to make them go crazy for battle, just like the Berserkers the fiercest warriors of the Vikings. They would eat special plants and herbs to make them high and crazy. But around here, the serum gives them ultra strength to break open their titanium cages.

Before I could leave, they already got out of the cages, smelling the smell of blood. Before the first one could touch me, Batowski was already outside of the spacecraft with his air lock suit, shooting through the plexie glass with an SVK-908 silenced with a laser. That enabled the titanium airlock seal to stop the space air from getting inside.

“ ** ¶§⅞ **∞ ** ΞΦΨξÄŐŤĕëÝȚŗüżş ** !” Said the leader inhabitant, he was obviously the leader because he had the most scars and he was the biggest. Just then, 5 big drills came through the floor,” There’s my Navy Seals,” I said,” Hey! Animals! Back off, unless you’re not scared!” As soon as I said that, they took offense and ran at me. Right under their feet, 5 more giant transport drills chopped them up into little, tiny pieces. 415 words.

After that, we went to the IGSP, Inner Galaxy Space Program, to meet Lt. Marcus Filler, my oldest friend and oldest rival. Ever since we have known each other, we have been trying to beat each other at anything from Ro Sham Bo (Rock Paper Scissors) to Artillery shooting. We went to Laos together, he was one of the Apache Helicopter pilots that were trying to protect my Chinook. At that time, he was a Sgt. and I was a Lt., but now I am a Capt.

Jack Justice 2/5/14 Prd. 3 Right now I have a B in English. Mr. Moss gave me a lot of #|credit for the second paragraph. I had an F in the class because I lied about doing homework twice. I am very happy that he gave me credit for the second otherwise it would take all semester to just get a D or C. The goals that I want to meet will be hard but I know I can do it with the help of my teachers teaching me and for me to do what they say and not lie.

The Super bowl

“He is running down the 30, the 20, the 10, and it’s a touch down!” I heard the announcer talking about the Seahawks once again. I really didn’t care who won, my Patriots were already out of the game, but in side I felt a tug for the Seahawks to win. I felt bad for them; they had never gotten to the Super Bowl and won the game. The last time they went to the Super Bowl, they lost, and my boy Brady had 8 Super Bowl rings (which was crazy). This year, it was Super Bowl 48. The score was between the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks.

As I was looking at the score at the beginning, it had been less than a minute and it was 8 to nothing… Seahawks. I was so happy, and then I suppressed the happiness when I saw Payton Manning. It looked like he was cursing to his other team mates. He looked really angry and sad at the same time. The reason that the score was 8 nothing in the beginning of the game was because the center hiked the ball when he wasn't supposed to and it went over 6’5” Peyton Manning’s head, then they got a safety. 215 words.

IPledge Day On iPledge Day, I felt sorry for those kids at that school that got shot up by 2 kids. All of that happened just because those two kids got bullied and got shut out by their friends. The worst part about it was that their families wouldn’t see their kids ever again because they died at the hands of 2 highschoolers. That video that they played yesterday, it made a huge impact on me. Then, when he started talking about how he would never see his brother again, I couldn’t stop thinking about my Grandma Gwen, Grandpa Louis, and my old dog Taylor. I thought about them because I would never be able to see them again. One thing about Mr. Christopher was that he new how people feel when they are getting bullied because he got bullied himself, and he got bullied so much, that he had to bring a shotgun to school to make himself feel safe and protected. 168 words.

Contagion

 This is how the Contagion came to be. First of all, I’m Mike; My Character traits are tough, muscular tall and handsome. Well … they are actually small, built and not very handsome. But I try to keep things nice and fine, just sometimes it just doesn’t work. Well, this is how we created the contagion. We named it the Mike Coldwell Disease, well because I had it, and that’s me, Mike Coldwell. When I got it, I was sweating, I had a fever of 104.7, and I had boils everywhere. When we asked the doctor, he described it as an “unknown pathogen,” which really freaked me out. Then he gave me some type of gas that knocked me out, and I went out cold. When I woke up, I was in a military jeep in the back. Everyone was wearing a hazmat suit that had the words,” Special Disease Unit: #6.” My mom, my dad, my brother, everyone was wearing one. Then I guess the leader said,” Mike Coldwell, follow me. We won’t hurt you as long as you follow my commands, understood?” Then I said,” Yep.” He had the characteristic of a real military man. 203 words.

IT It was scary, horrifying even, when it looked at me, it looked through my soul. Oh I’m sorry, I’m Jason. The year is 2025 well it is now. This is my hologram for me to tell you about them. When I say them, I mean the chimps. This is the story of how they attacked Earth. The Earths core is full of Uranium. That’s how they made the serum for the process. The serum was supposed to make you smarter and more intelligent. When they gave it to the chimps, they were able to play checkers and chess. I am Sgt. Jason “Gunny” Grace. I was on the first infiltration gunship to take point on Project Green Monkey.

When they told me to take point, I was scared. I took point and saw 2 patrol groups looking for us. They had our armor and weapons. One of them saw me, good thing he was behind the group because his patrol commander would be painted in blood. When we took a look at his body, he had no head. I had shot it clean off. When he went for the second group of patrol monkeys, we tried to take them out by SOG knives but they raised their alarm. We got scattered in the forest. We each used the body system. Batowski was with me; he was our head survival specialist. 2 hours later, we lost our com-link with the rest of our team.

We spent 2 weeks in the forest alone before we met up with our other 3 buddy units at the ridge next to the chimp’s hideout. “ Jason, come get dinner dear.” “ Alright honey!” Sorry got to go, Jason Grace, signing out for the last time.

28 Weeks Later… Listen up, I need you to be quiet and listen. All right, I’ll brief you as fast as I can. When we left to go to Planet X, we didn’t expect anyone there. Especially with the readings we got off of our transmitter on the planet. When we got there, we found all of our trash there. Everything that we threw away, boom, it was right there, right in front of us. We expected it to be some kind of transportation unit. We found all of our quarantine units, our cures that we didn’t need, and worst of all, our re-animated dead bodies that were on earth.

The Quilt

Hi, I’m Jimmy, call me Jim. When my Grandma made it, it was the worst day the world had ever seen. Oh ya, that’s right, I’m just a hologram in the future, let me tell you how it all started. When I went to my Grandma’s house that frightful day, she did not seem like her self. She was walking in circles, and her eyes were black. But no one else noticed except for me, so I thought it was something I ate or drank. But when I saw the candles, the skull and the circle of “blood”, I was freaked out. I was seeing shadows on the walls of people who weren’t there, eyes in the dark, and worst of all, I had bruises on my back, arms and legs. When I saw the green eyes staring at me, I said,” That’s it! I am tired of this! I am going to the Church of Nazareth to protect my self and get help from the priest!”

When I went to look for my sister, I saw her next to Grandma, watching her make a quilt of darkness.

“ Come on Lilly, lets go see the art at the church, how about that? You love art.”

“ No, I want to stay here with Grandma !”

She looked at me with the same eyes Grandma had, all black and darkness in them. So I went to the church, alone, and asked the priest for help. "Father Homer, I need your help to defeat this evil in my grandmothers house." "What has it taken its place as?" "My grandmother and sister, Father Homer." After that, he told me to wait to come to my Grandmothers house. He told me to wait at the church until he came back with news. After about 8 hours, I got impatient and went to my grandmother’s house. When I walked in, there was smoke everywhere, then, I saw the priest go around the corner. When I asked him to me what evil was in this house, he told me," An ancient evil, older than Abraham would ever know, as powerful as God himself. The demon that is here in this house with us is the Archangel himself." When the priest turned around, he had 1 regular eye and the other eye was black. It turned out he was battling the evil with his belief in God.

The next day I went back to my grandmother’s house, it felt different. It felt like something had lightened the mood. When I went to talk to the priest he said,

“I removed the evil by bathing the house in holy water.”

I thought that was the end, it turned out I was right, for a while.

2 Years Pass…

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Times; font-size: 16pt; text-align: center;">There was a huge earthquake, according to the news; it was the largest the world had ever seen. It was so huge, that it opened a crack in Russia. They say that black objects with wings flew out and dragging humans into the “underworld” with the “Evil Foe.” When I saw it, it was the scariest thing ever. It still scares me to this day. We didn’t know what was going on at all. To America, it was just an earthquake in Russia. To Russia, it was the worst thing since the Cold War. Jack Justice 1/6/14 Prd. 3

My winter break was awesome! During my winter break, I went to my grandmother’s house in Bellflower, L.A. and helped her clean the house. When I was up there, it got so late that we had to stay the night. Then we drove back and I got my gifts for Christmas. My gifts were: Call of Duty Ghosts, Call of Duty Black Ops II, Assassins Creed Black Flag, a new controller called AFTERGLOW, and Jeep Cap (a beanie with a brim like a baseball hat). 90 Words

This week I am going to read my favorite books, Naruto. The book Naruto is about a child in a village that tries to become the most powerful ninja in history. But he has a knack for mischief (this book is a Japanese manga series). In this story, he has a master named Hatake Kakashi. He is one of the most powerful ninja in the land. The village that Naruto and Kakashi live in Konohgakure, or Konoha, for short. They have master ninja called Hokage. Naruto, even with his lack of self-focus and his knack for mischief, he promises to be the villages next Hokage. They have very many enemies, but the one that stands out is called the Atakaski, which is a group of highly trained ninja assassins. They despise Konoha because of Kakashi. They despise him because he has a special eye called the Sharigan Copy Wheel Eye. This Sharigan eye has the special ability to see the persons Chakra (energy to make jutsu) flow the persons body. They also can see attacks that haven’t even been produced yet. - 181 words.

This weekend, I had my cousins come over to my house. When they started talking to me, they said," We want to spend the night here!" So we asked my uncle and he said yes, so they spent the night. In the morning, we had pancakes. Then we went on a walk around the block with my mom t walk the dog. After that, we went to the Verizon downtown so we could get new phones. We got there around 12:00. Then we left at 4:00! I went home with my grandparents to help them with their new iPhone 5S. When I got home to my house, we watched Modern Family until 8:00. Then I read my Naruto books until 9:00.

Mr. Moss graded my Pearl Essay and gave me a B. I think that I did a great job on my essay, but I could have done better. His comments said," Good claim & quotes, but it should be clear how your evidence connects to your claim." I understand what he means and thats why I say that I could do better.

"Hey Kino, how much do you think that pearl is cost?" I asked

" I don't know, I hope it is worth enough to live in the city," Kino whispered

 * The Money Poem, I think, is saying that money is what makes the world go around. It can buy all of these fancy items and it can do other things. But there are things money cannot, like love and friendship. It also cannot buy happiness and** exceptince.

Should Kids Be on T.V  Kids on T.V. shows should not be on T.V. shows because they will get so much money that they will either get sewed or they will start taking drugs for the rest of there lives. They might also use up there money and then be on the streets for the rest of their lives. We don’t need anyone else on the streets.

Another thing is that they will sew their parents for more money. Then they will get greedy and move away and keep on doing movies/T.V. shows so they can get more money. If anything, they need education, not money. They need to be smart enough to be able to realize that they don't need that much money.

The Virus Hello, I’m Daniel Marshall, people call me,” Dan” or Danny.” This is the story of how it started. It stared one morning when I thought every thing was normal. It turned out I was wrong. When I woke up, Sally wasn't outside to say,” Hi.” When she was doing her morning jog. Fred wasn't outside mowing his lawn like usual. In fact, no one was outside at all. I guess it was like a day of reckoning. I ignored it. That was the biggest mistake of my life. When I drove to my job, the light was of in the mall. So I tried to unlock the door, but then I realized that it was clawed open. I was starting to get a little freaked out. When I heard my name echo through the hall. I realized it was my brother, Shaun. He was in the military, why was he here? He told me that there was a virus attack and everyone was killed, except him. I was scared to death. I tried to pull him in my car. But he died in the car half way home. When I went back to the mall, I found my best friend Roger. He was bit in the leg. He had a weapon in his hand, am Roger and I the last ones alive?

He asked me if his wife and his son were okay. I didn't know, but I said,” They’re fine, you are going to get home and be free with them, okay?” but all he said was,” I know that your lying, I can tell in the tone of your voice, but I see the light. I am going to be fine, I am going to see my young boy an my wife in the right place… I hope…” “ Roger… ROGER!?!?... I’m sorry… I am so sorry. Forgive me.”

I went and buried Roger and Shaun in the fountain. I got some rocks from the rock merchant store, and just buried them. I paid my respects to them and went to the military base with a backpack, for ammo, a flashlight and food to survive. When I went there, I didn't expect anyone to be there. I was dead wrong. Ha ha ha… I crack my self up sometimes. I found a secret base of about 1,000 people, and this is where I am now. Talking to a computer. Whatever, well this is my story and its coming to an end. So logging off, forever, hopefully. Thanks for listening to my story.

The Second Apocalypse

I don’t have a lot of time to tell you the story, so you better listen up. The Virus came back, no one knows how, but it did. We have been fighting it ever since… well ever since I went to get my turkey sub. Yes, hahaha, but no. Last time I saw someone eating my turkey sandwich, I kicked him out through the window and into the rain. This was different, I saw one of my squads eating it, but his eyes were green and his skin was bubbling. As soon as I set off the alarm, he looked right at me and ran towards me at un-believable speed. I only had enough time to grab my knife and stab him. By the time the HAZMAT unit got here it was on the ground, dead. When they picked it up, it started to spew yellow liquid out of its mouth. As soon as it touched Mike's HAZMAT suit, the part that got the liquid disinigrated.

My questions would be,” Was your life hard on you when you were a sheriff?” and,” Was it hard on you when Doc Holliday and your brother Morgan died and your other brother sent away to Texas?” //

The Day I Didn't Get Enough Sleep The day I didn't get enough sleep was about 2-3 years ago, I was with my friend and we stayed up until 8:30 A.M. So that day we did a lot of stuff, but we didn't get it all finished so we went to my house and stayed up until 3:00 A.M. The next day, we forgot that it was the first day of school. From 9:00 to 3:30 we were so tired, we fell asleep in class. I looked at the clock before I dozed off, it was 10:35. When I woke up, the clock read 11:54. I was asleep for 1 hour and 19 minutes! That was the last day I didn't get enough sleep.

__ Favorite Stuff __

My favorite books are:


 * __ Lord of the Rings: The Series __

// This book series is about a little Hobbit (small man) on a journey to save the world from a monster named Sauron. Sauron is…. actually no one knows what he is. All they know is that he can and will destroy the world himself. 7 men answered the call. They called them “The Fellow Ship of the Ring”. The Ring refers to the one and only power ring to control all the rings that Sauron gave to the three kinds of the world, Man, the Elves, and the Dwarves. Read the books for yourself and decide. //
