What Happens In the Dark

3…9…5…2…

Those were the numbers that started this story and my nosy nose. It all started when I was walking down the street by my house. Abraham, my dad, just died from a mysterious disease. I was heading to his funeral with my aunt (because my mom died from another disease called CANCER) we were both sad but I was the saddest because that means I have no more parents. As we were walking I saw a man in white walking in the graveyard so I went to check it out. My Aunt yelled at me to get back but I ignored her then I it hit me that my dad was wearing the same suit!?!

DAD IS THAT YOU!!!!!

3…9…5…2…

I was running towards him yelling dad, dad, dad come to me I missed you I thought 79ou died. He looked at me and said IIIIII DDDDDDDIIIIIDDD. I… tho…ugh…t yo..u we…re……aliv….. e… LISTEN TO THE NUMBERS 3…9…5…2… I awoke to my Aunt saying, “Call 911 my nephew just fainted”

Then I fainted again…

6 hours later…

I awoke my to my Aunt reading me a book, Oliver Twist, my favorite. She asked me what had happened and I told her I saw my dad. For some odd reason I thought I shouldn’t tell her about the numbers. The very next day we went back to the graveyard where we were going to have the funeral. I saw a group of graves in a corner it turns out the people died from a cannibal massacre.

= = = = = = = The Intro =

= Government should help teenagers to stop smoking. For multiple reasons… For one most of the chemicals in cigarettes are bad and teens could end up with lung cancer and more. Another reason is the price of the cigarettes is really high and people keep buying them because they are bad. The last reason is that cigarettes are addicting and can stop you from doing things with your family. = = = = Reason #1 = = Some of the ingredients in cigarettes are Acetone, a nail polish remover, Acetic Acid, Vinegar, and Carbon Monoxide, a smoke in cars. These chemicals cause cardiovascular disease and many types of cancer including, larynx, esophagus and lung cancer. Some more of the chemicals are Arsenic, a rat poison and death row killer, Ammonia, a cleaning fluid, and Benzene, is a coal or tar used for barbecues. = = = = = = Reason # 2 = = If you smoke cigarettes, you are spending more money then you should. If you smoke for one and you live in California. You most likely smoke about 21 cigarettes a day… You know it cost you about 5.79$ a day for you. If you do the math, that means 40.53$ a week for you and 176.11$ a month. If you are a heavy smoker then you have smoked more than a year and that cost 2113.35 for cigarettes. If you don't want to spend that much money then stop. = = = = = = Reason # 3 = = If teens are smoking it gets more and more addicting. You might not think that nicotine has a motive, but it does… It gives the brain the chemicals to release adrenaline and that make more kids daring. If you see kids that are smoking you see them laughing messing around. If you smoke even more you want more and if you want more you get more adventurous. Once you have a couple you never stop until you can't afford it and get better over time. = = = = Conclusion = = If you are a non-smoker do your best efforts to stop smoker. If you are a smoker don't resist the people who are trying to help you. Smoking will always be a problem but maybe we can slow down the spread of addiction. It is addicting and cost a lot……………Thank you for reading. =

= Most Kids or Young Adults consume McDonalds about 4 days a week. They should not though because McDonalds has bad things in side their food. For example a singer named Jacqueline Simpson has been charging for a lawsuit against McDonalds because she found and ate glass inside of the chicken sandwich. = = = = This is not the first time this has happened. She lost her voice and is suing because of that. In the movie = Supersize =// Me // the guy who was hosting the movie found hair in his McDonalds Parfait. From my own experiences I have found bone inside my chicken sandwiches that I eat from there. I never go unless it is during the morning and I need a quick and easy breakfast. = = = = I know some kids that go to McDonalds as a regular; it has the same effect as being a regular at Starbucks. If you are a regular at Starbucks it is just the same as a regular at McDonalds because you get addicted to caffeine instead of junk food. It’s the same if you go anywhere that sells junk food because it makes you have the same affect as if you went to McDonalds or Starbucks because you get addicted. = = = = = = The Expert Kris Gunnars has written an article on how junk food affects the brain. She says, “The brain has a ‘reward system’” She also said that when you eat great food your brain releases a chemical called neurotransmitter dopamine. When this is released it makes your body feel good and makes you want to eat more to fulfill that craving. = = = = = = This is my article on Food on Your Body!!!! =

=To My PEN PAL= = I was born in the year 2001,October First. When I was young I had asthma. My asthma sucked because I had to use an inhaler. I also found out that I was colorblind and I can’t see some colors.We found that out when I was in preschool. When they found out they had realized that it came from my uncle because he is color-blind too!I have brown eyes and brown hair. I wear braces now and use glasses. I go to Innovation Middle School in California, San Diego. I have lived the town Claremont for my whole life and sometimes I lived in El Cajon. My parents are divorced and I move in between them. =

=Hi I am an animal with to legs or flippers. I live in cold areas, like Antarctica, or Greenland. Some people know me as the bird that can’t fly. I wake up early in the morning because you know the saying “Early bird gets Worm” instead I get fish… I live around other animals like Fish, Polar bears, and Sea Lions. I live in Ice dens or igloos.= =I woke up early in the morning to get breakfast. I went and slid on my belly down a hill of ice but it didn’t work out well because the ice broke under my weight and I had to swim far out to get fish. The ice breaking is the effects of global warming or when the earth starts to get warmer all by itself. I will have to move and or adapt to a new environment. I have to move with my family to a better place. I will cross-breed with other animals.=

=When I move I will have to change what I eat. Some of us will die out sadly. I will have to make a decision of where to go. This is because my children are still young they have just hatched. I have to find fish for them more than me because if I don’t they will die. I have the reserve of fat on me too use for several months. Some of my kids are already grown up.=

=Our mating season is in summer through spring. I have am a species known as The Emperor. My wife is the Macaroni species. We cross breed to make our own children and family.=

=I will have to move on now without my family and find food I don’t know if I will survive in order to come back……………=

Epilogue
The Penguin was found and captured by hunters. They realized that he was an endangered species and brought him to the zoo. They took care of him and he became a star but, every night he would dream about his family and how they were doing.

The Penguins family moved on finding new grounds and finding more food. The hunters never came that way. They had a good life and always missed the Penguin. They always had food and were always moving like nomads. Hoping that one day they will find their father.

Mexico hopes to shed its obesity problem through a tax on soft drinks
Mexico wants people to stop getting soda and getting obese. They plan on adding taxes to soda so people won’t buy the soda and lower the 32.8 percent of people who are obese. They want this to stop because it causes diseases like Diabetes and Types of Cancer. The money they earn from the taxes will go to giving to the poor and needy. “ Mexicans would pay an extra peso (7.6 cents) for every liter of sugary drinks they buy.” is what the article said about the taxes. It makes it to where it cost more and people won’t be able to buy the sugary drinks and get obese. Mexico drinks more Coke Products more than any nation, the average person in Mexico drank 728 servings(THAT IS 5,824 OUNCES OF SODA) of soda in 2011. This is a lot compared to how much Americans drink per year, which is 403 servings(THAT IS 3,224 OUNCES OF SODA). Mexico is not the only country that wants to put more taxes, America is one of the countries that wants to do this. “‘A 10 percent increase in the price should result in a 10 to 12 percent decrease in consumption,’said Roberta R. Friedman of Yale University.” said the article about soda and obesity.

Hi I’m Bob Sheldon, I am going to tell you my part of //The Outsiders.// This one a specific day a little tiny grease was walking at the bleacher area at school. We yelled “Hey grease” and he looked back at us. “I don’t want any business with you guys” He said as he spat on the ground “We don’t want any trouble” I said with a grin on my face I cracked my knuckles which had 5-6 rings on them and we started walking toward the little grease. I yelled “Get him” He started running across the field but he wasn’t a fast runner because we caught up to him in seconds. We beat him to the ground as hard as we could. My rings did more of the damage to his face. His greaser friends and the cops came started to run up to him as we were beating him so we ran. I got picked up by the cops and sent home after I tried bribing them with the riches I have but it didn’t work they ended up telling my dad I got home to my house and my Dad looked at me said “What we’re you thinking beating a boy like that?” Or that’s what he should have said instead he said “I’m so sorry for being a horrible father and making you taking out your anger out on a kid” He said sadly and fast I walked away hoping that someday my parents will actually give me some discipline and not pity. I went to sleep…… The next day it was just another day in life… 2 weeks later My girlfriend Cherry Valance is mad at me about today because I got drunk like a hobo gets drunk. So she was mad because I got a lot of alcohol and got drunk and passed out on the floor at the park. Cherry has been ignoring me for a long time now; I'm going right now to hang out with my friend Randy and his girlfriend Marcie. We went to Dairy Queen which was across the way from my house; I got three Cheese Burgers and a Chocolate Malt. Some greasers came up to us and tried to pick a fight with us. When they threw the first punch we started attacking them like no tomorrow. The owner of the Dairy Queen kicked us out and banned us from going there.

Cherry started talking to me again. The greasers don’t treat us well, we have tried to let them in on our parties and things but, they always think we are there to hurt them. They leave us out of the activities they do so we go after them to take out our anger

There is this greaser that goes to my school his name is Ponyboy Curtis. I think he is the only greaser left in the school because all the other greasers are dumb and don’t like school

Every day I wonder why is there greasers and Socs in the world. I think it’s because I and other people’s families are in a feud, people think we are all tough and tuff. We are not that mean and or tough… 1 week later Cherry and me have decided to go to the drive-in movie theater, but when she realized that I was going to drink alcohol she left me and watched the movie by herself. A few hours later I found her walking with some greasers. We ran out and tried beating them up, but Cherry stopped me. They got into our car and we left

We were driving down the road by the park and we saw some of the greasers that were trying to pick-up our girls. We ran out into the park and tried to pick a fight. I told one of the people with me to go and drown the other kid. One of the kids brought out a knife and my end came. Everything flashed before my eyes and I was DeAd…

The book //The Outsiders// was a very good book in our opinion’s. This book has everything we would need to be hooked like: Suspense, Romance (very little with Sandy and Sodapop, and Cherry and Dally), and Action (the Rumble, Bob’s Death, and when Ponyboy gets jumped in the beginning). If I was a major book critic like New York Times than I would rate this a 9/10 or 9 stars out of 10 stars. This is mostly because we thought the book was good it just was too fast to read through. The book was going to be some boring book that people wouldn’t have liked but it turns out that people really liked this book. It holds the potential of other book in it, that is because people really like this book. It lost one stars from us because it had a couple of typos in the book

Dear Scientist, ===I think you guys should help by making people younger because if people live longer than more ideas are meant to come. If more people live than more take income will become for the government. We need more people in our population because than the Engineers that have died off would have stayed longer and USA wouldn’t need engineers. Another reason is because statistics say “that people who live longer are meant to be greater” and it means that people who live longer than they will make the world a better place. The Scientist should help because the people who have helped the world in some way can help us. Also because for our own entertainment for example people can have actors stay alive longer so people can see their favorite actor play in more movies. Another way of entertainment keeping singers alive so we can listen to their music that they produce.===

Next Semester

Next semester I want to have no F’s .If I have F’s I will get bad grades and then I will be grounded. Another goal of mine is to be good in class because I want good citizenship grades. If I get good citizenship grades then I can go to all the IParties. These goals are just some of what I want to do for next semester. I want to start doing my HW more because I won’t get a good grade if I don’t do these assignments. My grades affect what I get to do at home and what I don’t get to do what my whole family does.

I will do these by thinking about the last time I got bad grades (I got grounded for a long time). I could also show my parents my homework every night in order to get good grade and if I say I have no homework they can contact my teachers to ask them. I will also go to tutoring every day I can in order to get my grade up. These are my goals for semester two of innovation middle school.

===The Yin-Yang is a symbol to the Buddhist people of China. It represents the good and bad of people and life. It shows what people worship along with Buddha himself. They believed that the Yin means bad, disgrace, horrible. They also believe that Yang means that it is good not bad and that it represents the good in people. The Yin-Yang also defines what you are going to be when you reincarnate. The Yin-Yang means that you should be a good person because if not Yin will turn you into a cockroach or a rat for being a bad person in life. If you are a good person in life then you shall turn into something great like a president or a god. The meaning of this symbol is good and bad.===

I think the meaning of the song Beat-It (by Michael Jackson) means that you want to stick up for yourself but you don't want to hurt others. It also talks about how people are bullying in the song quoted here: You Have To Show **Them** That You're Really Not Scared You're Playin' With Your Life, This Ain't No Truth Or Dare **They'll** Kick You, Then **They** Beat You, Then **They'll** Tell You It's Fair So Beat It, But You Wanna Be Bad (I bolded Them, They’ll and They to define that people are doing this) This quote defines that you want to get stronger but you can’t because they tell you what to do and bully you.

**Do you have friends whose social, ethnic, or economic backgrounds differ from yours? How do these conditions affect your relationship? ** Some of my friends are Mexican some are African American, thus it affects our relationship in many ways. For example some of my friends can’t speak fluent English and sometimes I can’t understand them because of their accent. Another thing my friends have that differs from me is they are having more wealth than me and they have parents that work as CEO’s of big companies. This affects me because my parents can’t afford all the fancy things my friends have so therefore I can’t talk about it with my friends. **<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">To what extent does a person’s environment determine their success and happiness? Is it possible to overcome your environment? If so how? ** <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">A person’s environment affects them in different ways for example if your parent hits you and abuses you then you will not like school and you will start to fail all of your classes. It also dictates how you act at school and how low your self-esteem. And on the other end if your parents encourage you to do well and want you to have good grades then you should do well and have a high self-esteem. It is possible to overcome your environment because you could just stop going to school when your parents want you to, or you could call your parents out on hitting you so they stop and learn to behave. **<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">How is a gang like a family? ** <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">Gang is like family because you have lived with them all your life and you look up to some of them as family. They always have your back and are willing to protect you at whatever stakes if needed. I could compare my family to a gang because my brothers would stick up for me if they needed to. **<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">What do you think it takes to make someone a hero? ** <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">I think it takes doing something like saving a person from a fire or convincing someone not to jump and kill themselves these are examples of what people like policemen and fireman do for a living. Most of these people are considered heroic because they did that. Someone wouldn’t care if you did something like that if you are a hoodlum in your neighborhood or if you don’t do anything good for the community. I also think you need to be a well-liked person in the neighborhood or people wouldn’t care if you did something heroic. **<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">What is your definition of an “outsider?” ** <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">My definition of an outsider is when someone is left out of a group activity in class. Another definition of outsider is not being the one to have a lot of friends or not like having friends. You also be an outsider when you can’t be like everybody else for example you are African American and have an accent and everybody speaks English normally or you have a body part that is deformed or you have some sort of disease. A person who does not belong to a particular group or believes the same things the other people do therefore being excluded from doing things and becoming an outsider.



**<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; font-size: 48px;">Scrooge Questions ** <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">I think that the meanest thing he did was say that Christmas was not his favorite thing. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">A) Jacob Marley was Scrooges friend that worked with him in his Counting House B) Marley tells the Audiences that he wasn’t a good man in life C) They both didn’t want to give to the poor they wanted all their money to themselves <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">A) Past shows Scrooge his childhood, him leaving the school, and how him and his girlfriend split apart. B) All of his memory are good except for one the third because tat is when his girlfriend and him split C) It made him a man of no love he didn’t like anyone after that <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">A) He talks with his nephew and Mr.Cratchit in the start of the movie. B) The main purpose in all of his visitors was to show us how he reacted to people. C) Scrooge’s attitude toward people is not very nice; he is more of an person that wants to be by himself. A) Scrooge values life and money the most because he doesn’t have anything left B) Scrooge is a happy man because he has started to like Christmas and people have started to like him <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">A) He appears to soften when he see’s childhood memories. B) I do believe that people can change dramatically.

Scrooge Description “Mister Scrooge” said the little boy, “I’m just waiting for my father” “Well that’s going to be awhile” said Scrooge This is just an example of how Scrooge was in the beginning of the movie. He was a mean selfish man that didn’t care for anyone other than himself. He was very stingy about his money he didn’t spend it if he didn’t have to. He didn’t like anyone besides himself. He is a man of work and business, he didn’t like to waste coal.

Scrooge is a mean old person. He was also someone who doesn’t waste but he re-uses all his things like candles. He doesn’t want to do things for other people but he does business with people. He is stingy and doesn’t want to be helpful to other people.

There were some good things to him for example he did not like to waste which could be good for him financially. These are my impressions of Scrooge!!!! . `

Literacy Analysis (Warning this is a SPOILER ALERT) The theme of //Act of Valor// was to always have each other’s back.This is proven when the squad leader dives on a grenade to save his fellow teammates. This theme is also proven throughout the movie when you see all the Navy Seals help each other up or encourage them to keep going. Another theme of this movie is that to be supportive and have the courage to do something. This theme is proven when the second in command is shot over and over again but he still gets back up and eventually kills the guy.

Another theme of this movie is to know when to fight and when you shouldn’t. This is proven when two of the squad people start arguing and then they get broke up by the squad leader.

The Monkey’s Paw Critical Thinking Questions

The irony is that when the son died he got 200 pounds from his death. It sets the mood of a scary story in my opinion I predicted it when I saw that someone’s third wish was death and they had already made a wish. I thought that she would when she started yelling the “monkeys paw the monkeys paw”. She ran home and used it to wish her son back alive. I think that Herbert was not outside because you can’t bring the dead back to life no matter what you do.
 * 1) Define irony. How is the fulfillment of Mr. White’s first wish ironic?
 * 1) How does the setting of the cold, wet, night and the warm, cozy fire set the mood of the story?
 * 1) At what point could you predict that Herbert is killed in an accident? Use specific examples for support.
 * 1) At what point could you predict that Mrs. White would ask her husband to wish her son alive again? Use specific examples for support.
 * 1) Do you think Herbert was really outside the door, or was it just coincidence? Explain your answer.


 * Frankenstein Questions **
 * 1) ** What is Victor’s goal in creating the creature? In what ways does he succeed and fail? **


 * Victor’s goal was to create a creature that would help other people can use to help the world **


 * 2 .The creature claims, “Only misery made me a fiend.” What does he mean? Do you agree? Explain. **


 * He means that he feels miserable and nobody is giving him attention or any nice actions towards him to use so basically he has never been showed anything nice **
 * 1) ** Mr. De Lacey says, “Most people are friendly—unless they are blinded by prejudice.” What prejudice does the creature face? What does the play say about the effect of prejudice? **


 * The creature has faced people thinking he is a monster that wants to hurt people because he was ugly and because he tried getting the attention that he needed, but he was trying to fix himself, but nobody believed he will change into a person that will be used to their benefit. **


 * 1) ** Why does the creature want a companion like himself? Do you agree with Victor’s refusal to create one? Explain. **


 * I think the creature wants a companion like himself because he wants to be able to get the attention and love he wants. I think it was cruel to not make a companion for the creature because he could have them all alone so they can get the attention they both need. **


 * 1) ** Was it justifiable for the creature to murder Victor’s loved ones as a means of revenge? Explain. **


 * Nothing he felt bad after killing Victor’s loved ones. He thought it would make him happy to make someone else miserable, but that didn’t work. The monster only did this because he didn’t get the attention he needs, but after he wasn’t angry anymore he felt bad for making his very own creator suffer. **

The kids are setting up the most original prank ever…TP. They are going to TP the house where the party is at, but as they were opening the package of toilet paper a guy named Pyro came at them with a centimeter of C-4… The very next day they were found dead. The deaths were not explainable until they had a group of scientist scourer the scene and it turns out it was caused from a very little amount of C-4. The very day of Christmas another incident happened except there was a survivor. The survivor explained to the police that he came up from behind and stabbed his arm and blew up his friend just by flicking his fingers. Valentine’s day…another attack has happened. When the cops came to the scene there was a box and it said “Happy Valentine’s Day” they opened it and boom a trigger bomb. A few years later and he was never found … Till Now…</range id="461844686_1">

“Who are you…are you bit…you’re not dead right?” We said our names are Wilfred and this is my sister Polly. He looked surprised because he thought that all the children would have died.

He looked at us and said“where are your guy’s parents”.

At the same time like we were in sync we both said dead even though we didn’t know for sure. He said “Oh, sorry I didn’t know”. I said “It’s OK” We sat there for a long time staring at each other wondering what we should do and just as I was about to say something He said ”I need to talk to you privately" We walked into a room without my sister.  He said” I’m heading over to a city called San Francisco in California”.  I said “We have a family in Colorado so I think we will head there”

“Well you can stay with me for a few weeks until you’re ready to go” He said with a sigh………………………

“Wait I never got your name” I said curiously

“I will tell you my name” He said sadly I said “OK then what is it”

He said” Dr… Tzc…es…ky…”





Hi I am an animal with to legs or flippers. I live in cold areas, like Antarctica, or Greenland. Some people know me as the bird that can’t fly. I wake up early in the morning because you know the saying “Early bird gets the Worm” instead I get fish… I live around other animals like Fish, Polar bears, and Sea Lions. I live in Ice dens or igloos. I woke up early in the morning to get breakfast. I went and slid on my belly down a hill of ice but it didn’t work out well because the ice broke under my weight and I had to swim far out to get fish. The ice breaking is the effects of global warming or when the earth starts to get warmer all by itself. I will have to move and or adapt to a new environment. I have to move with my family to a better place. I will cross-breed with other animals.

When I move I will have to change what I eat. Some of us will die out sadly. I will have to make a decision of where to go. This is because my children are still young they have just hatched. I have to find fish for them more than me because if I don’t they will die. I have the reserve of fat on me too use for several months. Some of my kids are already grown up.

Our mating season is in summer through spring. I have am a species known as The Emperor. My wife is the Macaroni species. We cross breed to make our own children and family.

I will have to move on now without my family and find food I don’t know if I will survive in order to come back……………

Epilogue

The Penguin was found and captured by hunters. They realized that he was an endangered species and brought him to the zoo. They took care of him and he became a star but, every night he would dream about his family and how they were doing.

The Penguins family moved on finding new grounds and finding more food. The hunters never came that way. They had a good life and always missed the Penguin. They always had food and were always moving like nomads. Hoping that one day they will find their father.
