Poem Analysis

The connection I see between “You want a social life” and “Contents of a Dead Man’s Pocket” is choosing the right and wrong things in life. In the poem “You want a social life” the writer mentions that you have choices but only some will ever help you into the future. Love life, friends or work but making the right choice will help you in the future. I would choose to have my job, then my love life, then friends. There isn’t really time for friends but if they were true friends they wouldn’t go anywhere. In “Contents of a dead Man’s pocket” Tom Benecke chose work over his love life. In the end he regretted not spending quality time with his wife. In life you can go both ways but you need to spend your time equally. From my point of View I would choose school work before Marcus, but when I’m done id spend time with Marcus.

Yellow Paper Paragraph

The most possessive thing that I would risk my life for is the picture I have of my grandma. I would risk my life for this picture because my grandma past away when I was only 1 years old. I didn’t know her very well because she died when I was a little girl. I regret being born so late so that way I could have met her. My mom always told me stories about her being a great mom and telling her stories when she was little. I would be so hurt if I lost the only picture left of my deceased grandmother. I’d do anything for that picture to stay safe under my responsibility. It means so much to me even though someone who I barely know is sitting on my dresser as I sleep at night.

Contents of A Dead Man's Packet

Tom Benecke chose to go out and get the yellow piece of paper. In the end it caused him to get trapped outside of the window with out any help while his wife went to the movies. Instead of going out onto the ledge I would have left the yellow piece of paper outside the window. I wouldn’t want to put my life at such a risk. The plot of my decision would be different from Tom Benecke’s decision because mine would have been less intense as his was. I do think that Tom Benecke was brave because he risked his life and after everything he regretted not spending more quality time with his wife.

Friends or Studying

Id rather study than to hang out with my friends. I think it's smarter to choose homework over friends at the right time because no one can help your education as much as you can.Hanging out with friends during school days will only distract me. If I happen to have time after doing my homework then there is a small chance I will decide to hang out with a friend. If one of my friends is trying to help me in a positive way to help me finish my homework then of course I would love to hang with them. Most of my friends distract me so I decide to study on my own.

Paralyzed By fear

The most recent time I rember being “ Paralyzed By Fear” was on my way to basetball practice. We were walking from the barn after watching a replay of an recent game and I was walking down with Tierra and Becky. We decided to walk ahead of eveyone else and take the shortcome. As we were turning the Marquise was coming aroung the same corner. He screamed and the the only thing that came to mind was a cures word. I cursed, Tierra screamed, and Becky just stared laughing. My heart was beating fast and in the end all I could do was laugh. We went to practice and the entire practice that was all I could think about.This was the time I was “Paralyzed by fear”. 

T.V Show

This weekend I watched an episode of SpongeBob Squarepants. Mr.Krabs runs out of his secret recipe so he orders a new shipment. He tells SpongeBob that the brief case that the secret recipe will arrive is his life and if he lost it to never come back to the Krusty Krabs. SpongeBob goes out to the swat team truck get the brief case the recipe will arrive in. He gets the recipe and come back inside the Krusty Krabs and notices that the recipe is missing. He doesn’t tell Mr. Krabs that the recipe was missing because he didn’t want to get fired. He tries to retrace his steps to find the recipe. He can’t find the recipe so he finally confesses to Mr. Krabs that the recipe is missing. Mr. Krabs calls the police and as he pulls out his cell phone he pulls out the recipe that was missing all along.

Free Post

Today was a pretty normal day. I was having a good day all the way up until 5th period. I don't know why I let people get to me and ruin my day. Then I came home and did community meeting and I ate an hot dog. I started texting someone a simple question and it was kind of un-necessary but I didn't let that ruin the rest of my day. So I went home to finish the rest of my homework I hadn't finished in class. Once again I had Volleyball practice and it was the same as yesterday’s practice. That was my day,Kind of boring and no excitement. 

Free Post

After school I did my homework in B5. I slept for about an hour then I went to Volleyball practice. I had volleyball practice after a couple of weeks. In the beginning it was fun but towards the end it got a little boring. It was fun because I had Jessica and Mary there to make me laugh when I got bored.  Me and Mary made up a handshake and we couldn’t stop laughing because we took part of it from Napoleon Dynamite which was kind of cool. We got to play a scrimage against our teamates and it was really challenging for the people who haven’t played the previous years. After practice I went to B5 to hang out with Marcus. He walked me home then I went to sleep.

Most Memorable Birthday

My birthday is October 2nd. My most memorable birthday was when I turned 14 years old. On the day of my birthday I walked outside of my room to see what time it was and all the girls were up already and told me happy birthday. I remember asking myself if that day was my birthday because for some reason I had forgotten. After I realized it really was my birthday we all laughed. I went to the cafe and for breakfast and Shane song "happy birthday" to me. Everyone gave me my presents that they bought for me and I enjoyed opening them. My best friend at the time gave me $20 and I thought it was pretty cool because I was thinking in my head “ If I were him I wouldn’t be giving me $20”. After school my housemate bought cake and Ice cream for me and I decided to share it with everyone inside of the cafe. I hung out with my brother Jabriel and Chelsea and they took me shopping and we came back at 9:45 at night. That was my most memorable Birthday. I had fun and I enjoyed spending time with family and friends.

My most Embarassing Moment


My embarrassing moment was actually recently. It was a couple of days after my boyfriend came home from his summer trip. I was coming from my house after dropping my food of from the café and I was going up the stairs and out of no where I tripped. I was so embarrassed because the person I’m shy to do anything in front of just seen me trip over myself going up a couple of stairs. Marcus laughed at me and told me it was cute only because it was me and he had never seen me do something so silly before. I laughed with him but in the inside I was embarrassed.

My weekend

On Saturday morning I spent some time with a couple friends on the football field. We were watching the boys practice for football and we got bored. I brought up the idea of helping my friend Liz practice her pitching to help her with her boredom. Liz, Mary and I all went home to get our softball gloves to play catch but then it started to get hot. We then stopped playing softball and went to listen to music under a tree with lots of shade. We got so caught up with the music that practice was already over. Lizbeth and Mary went to walk their boyfriend’s home but I just decided to walk my close friend Adolf home since my boyfriend wasn’t on the football team. Adolf thought it would be a great idea for us to go off campus. After I walked him home we went to the office to see if we could go and campus and eventually we did. We went to Petco, Panda Express, 7-11 and the 99 cents store. I went to Petco because I wanted to see how much my bearded dragon was. My bearded dragon was $50 but I didn’t have quite that much money on me so e went to panda express to buy some orange chicken. We went to 7-11 to buy chips and we went to the 99 cent store to buy soda because those were the cheaper stores. That was my fun weekend with Adolf, Mary, Liz and I.

My first day back to school

Today I was extremely exhausted so I thought the first day wouldn't go so well but it did. I love my classes and everyone in them. I can't wait for the middle of the school year to get use to the schedule so I won't get embarrassed walking into other classes that I don't even have. My favorite class so far has to be Ms.Priester because I never really got along with Walker, Beedle, and I don’t know Ms. Davis good enough to judge her. I hope this year goes great. Overall today was a great first day of school.
