Into The Wild

1. My initial impression of the book was confusion as I sniffed the area where the pages come together known as the books back bone. Over all I am responding well to events that the characters have gone through in the plot so far. I think that it is good to know someone writes a book about this stuff.
2. Daniel is very talkative. He is always telling stories from his past, like that time on the playground.
3. The author has clearly told me in his book that it is important to do what you want to do, and not to do what others want you to do because they don't even really like you that much. The author tells me in his book about the importance of independence and individuality.
4. I would say that Daniel is most like that episode of the Rugrats when they are all older than normal, and they are all standing by some river and Phil and Lils mom says I used to be a man, because Daniel is also a man.
5. When Daniel was talking and conversing and giving some words about the playground, I could relate because I used to play on the playground all the time. Sometimes I would get hurt on the playground during recess just like Daniel.
6. I think that this book so far most similarly relates to slavery.

Trivium-The Crusade Sucked

Trivium is a metal band from Florida formed in 2000, with four albums out including The Crusade realeased in 2006. This cd sucked. Trivium's two cds before this, Ember to Inferno and Ascendancy were great. Ascendancy was one of the greatest metal albums out. When Trivium wanted to become the new Metalica, which proved to be as bad as an idea as a crumpled up fork in a microwave at your own house. They didn't need to try and become the new Metalica since Metalica is still around and they shouldn't just try to sound like some other band they should come up with there own sound. On this cd they stopped sceaming and begain sucking. Their guitaring and other instrumental noises are too intense to be wasted by such unpleasant of a sandwhich sound vocals. In my opinion this cd is not worth the money to buy but is worth the time of returning.

Monkey Ball Video Game Review


I am reviewing Super Monkey ball 2 for my Nintendo Gamecube. The game contains a nice game manuel inside the case, lots of fun, about 12 mini-games anlong with the main game, and some mild monkey violence. In my opinion with the exception of the inspiring Super Monkey Ball Deluxe which is better but I chose not to write about, this is the best game that exists for my Gamecube. I like this game a lot and am really good at it. Here is a video of me playing Super Monkey Ball 2 on my Gamecube, click under the screen to watch in high quality http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHZs1X22PsM. The point to the game is to collect all the bananas that Doctor Bad Boon has so ruthlessly taken away, which he inconviently scattered across some difficult Monkey Ball courses. It is up to you Aiai, Meemee, Gongon, and Baby to collect bananas and the bunches of bananas I like to call banana packs. The main characters are Aiai, Meemee, Baby, and Gongon. Aiai is the best with his capital letter A printed on his orange colored t-shirt, but he is not the most fun to play as. Meemee is the girl monkey, who marries Aiai in a monkey church, but Doctor Bad boon is also in love with Meemee, but Meemee can't stand the sight of his ugly Doctor face. Baby is a little diapered monkey that slimes around in its monkey ball capable of tight corners, and skinny paths, and stuff like that. Gongon is pretty cool he is the biggest monkey and can hit stuff really hard because of his large big monkey body size. The programmer did a good job. The games got real good style and artistry. Sometimes the monkeys look like teddy bears.

Part Two

Obama is going to mess everything up in the next four years, so when I am 21-22 I will be angry at him for doing that. I think in four years I will be at college, and Obama will have socialized everything. I think I will die before 2035.

20 Minutes with the President

I would sit down with the president and tell him I don't like him, and then I would tell him I would rather have him not be the president and to go home. He wants to give more money to people who don't have to do anything, I would tell him not to do that. I would tell him its unfortunate that he exists, and to go home. Then I would stand on my chair and tell him I am taller than he is.

My Halloween Costume


This year for halloween I am going to be a character from Monkey ball, I am going to be Aiai, he is not the coolest monkey he is pretty good I guess. I am going to get some monkey parts like monkey arms and legs and put them on. And I am going to wear an orange shirt with a capital letter A right in the middle of it. And Then I'm going to have my mom paint my face so that I look more like Aiai, and then I am going to walk around in a giant clear ball.
Here is a poem by me
Aiai likes bananas are yellow not green
After I start sitting infront of my T.V. screen
A couple hours till I don't stop to keep playing
I don't just listen to what the bathroom rug cobra is saying
Just jump over it with the shower door
I don't think that it was there before
When we turn the game off
before we were talking and saying cough
If you can't shut the dish washer I'm yelling at you
Its not slow motion anymore its late like 2:00
If a round pizza comes pass it around too
dont climb the boxes is fun
through rocky road is a good run

LOVE IS LIKE DONKEY KONG


Love is like Donkey Kong
It is powerful and strong
Sometimes you have to settle for second best
Like choosing diddy kong
Everyone knows he is worse than the rest
Love can be as destructive as D.K.s down B
When I’m playing super smash bros on the wii
Love can be easily destroyed
Like D.K. after a B-bomb is deployed
Love can be mysterious at the start
Just like getting an item box in Mario Kart

October 7th Blog

Today I was watching The Price is Right. On todays show Drew told one of the contestants that if he won the game he was playing on stage, that they would get a piano for the contestant to play for everyone at the end of the show. The guy won his game and the dinette set , acoustic guitar, and washer and dryer, then got to play the piano for everyone at the end of the show. Another weird thing on todays Price is Right was when the announcer was announcing while standing on his head and two of Bob's beautys held his feet up, after that he inhaled helium while announcing, maybe this announcer should get his own show.

Love is like a drive through

Love is like a fast food drive through. Because you don't always get what you want, but most of the time it leaves you wanting to come back for more. Its like a drive through cause you will like what you get out of it and it will make you happy.

Love Poem

Samuel Daniel

Love is a Sickness

Love is a sickness full of woes,
All remedies refusing;
A plant that with most cutting grows,
Most barren with best using.
Why so?

More we enjoy it, more it dies;
If not enjoy'd, it sighing cries--
Heigh ho!

Love is a torment of the mind,
A tempest everlasting;
And Jove hath made it of a kind
Not well, nor full nor fasting.
Why so?

More we enjoy it, more it dies;
If not enjoy'd, it sighing cries--
Heigh ho!

The theme of this poem is the power of love. A metaphor in the poem when it says love is a plant that with most cutting grows. This means that love is uncontrollable, and if you try to control it you won't be able to.

Poetry Critique

Wheels

Jim Daniels

My brother kept
in a frame on the wall
pictures of every motorcycle, car, truck:
in his rusted out Impala convertible
wearing his cap and gownwavingin his yellow Barracuda
with a girl leaning into him
waving
on his Honda 350
waving
on his Honda 750 with the boys
holding a beer
waving
in his first rigwearing a baseball hat backwards
waving
in his Mercury Montego
getting married
waving
in his black LTD
trying to sell real estate
waving
back to driving trucks
a shiny new rig
waving
on his Harley Sportster
with his wife on the back
waving
his son in a car seat
with his own steering wheel
my brother leaning over him
in an old Ford pickupand they are
waving
holding a wrench a rag
a hose a shammy
waving.
My brother helmetless

rides off on his Harley
waving
my brother's feet
rarely touch the ground-waving waving
face pressed to the wind
no camera to save him.
2. I picked this poem because it talked about cars, and I like cars.
3. The Title is wheels, this fits cause the poem is about cars and trucks and motorcycles.
4. it repeats the word Waving in between a lot of the lines, so you picture the guy waving a lot it also repeats how he is sitting in a different car or bike over time like on his honda 350 and on his honda 750
5. the poem isn't happy or sad its just calm and about remembering her brother

My Boat

I like to fish a lot, and on Saturday I bought my own fishing boat. I got a 93 15 foot Bass boat. Its blue and gold and sparkly. I got it sitting in my driveway right now. Its really fast too, we had it out on the Mississippi on the weekend. Its got a 100 horse motor on it, and I really like horses. This weekend I am going to take it up to my cabin where I am going to keep it. Its got all the good stuff you need in it, like two live wells, two fish finders, trolling motor, and all this other stuff too.

Titles

Three titles for my personal narrative are
Sneezer The Horse
Since I Became A Horse
and
How I Learned to Juggle

Music

I like to listen to music a lot. some bands i like are genghis tron, Animosity, the red chord, all that remains, avenged sevenfold, bullet for my valentine, protest the hero, the number twelve looks like you, mindless self indulgence, the human abstract, and a lot of other stuff. i like going to concerts a lot too. Maybe the best concert i've been to was when i saw All That Remains, but when i saw the red chord with cannibal corpse that was a good one too. And i like to fish.

Narrative Passage

Here is a passage from my Personal Narrative.

Before the creation of the Equestrian Artistry club, I was unsure, and thought that i was the only one who excessively drew horses excessively. Before the construction of the club my life was as lame as an unsound horse. Before the clubs formation the constant nervousness of guarding my drawings made it feel like a horse continuously cribbing on my brain. Prior to horse club being in my life I felt like a mere pony among stallions as I walked down the hallways, knowing that I was equipped with loads of horse drawings in my backpack. Then I realized that I had other schoolmates who shared the same passion for equestrian art.

I think this passage needs some work cause I am not sure if some losers will be able to understand all the horse terminology. And I think i need to finds words to replace before because i use that word a lot.
