Journal 67: Betrayal

Her friend simply left her in the dust and did not want anything to do with her, then she was left alone. She responded by morning about it. She did not getting super mad at her and saying mean things, but she did explain her feeling I mean this is how I know in the first place. It may have been an effective response if her friend that betrayed her saw what she wrote. She may have had feeling about it and changed her mind. I have felt betrayed by a friend once he led me literally into a pond and he mocked me on front of my face. At least I had a nice bath, I got back at him but that is another story. Or I can explain it now I responded with a hurtful blow including his room. He responded back with another hurtful blow this time it was my room. It just kept going on and on. Another time is when Steven (In Alaska, not the Steven we all know ) pounded me in dodge ball I mean wow. He was on our team and switched manually to the other team, I mean its now 13 to 11. A great battle was taken. Well, we lost but I can say it was a good experience.

Journal 71: Hints and Foreshadowing

He said that hes not insane but the fact that he opens the door slowly for an hour just to peak into the room and then leave is a little crazy. It explains that he wants to kill the old man and that it also showed that he is crazy because of how he talked I mean who would explain on the first words that he is not crazy? Its crazy to say that, he also stated that he has obsessed with the old man's eye. The eye is what he was always talking about. His mood is always describing how he is obsessed with the old mans eye. It is the eye is is worried about. He claims it may have some kind of power on him. He is also 'mad' through out the whole story. He talks in a strange way and he even acts in a strange way. This is also a reason the narrator is unreliable.  He talks like someone who is mad, even though he claims to not be crazy or mad. He still explains some stuff that gives us some clues that in fact he is mad. In opinion he killed a man for no reason at all only because he was obsessed of his eye.

Journal 70: Narrator

The narrator describes it in such a unprofessional manner and describes stuff like "Go get ya door". In others words this would mean "Go get the door." This is an example of unreliability. The narrator also explains stuff in a sorta of odd manner. The author probably wanted the reader to figure out what he is saying. It's like a puzzle, a hard puzzle. I have read cat in the hat a long time ago. The narrator seems to have a odd since of humor in the sentences. Any Dr. Sues book has strange sentences that make the narrator unreliable. I can tell how they act, if they are series and mad and I don't know them. Then they are probably telling the truth. If I know who they are and I know they cant be trusted I don't think I will believe what they are saying. I can also tell by how they speak, if they are depressed its a 50% they are telling the truth. If they are crying its a 90% chance they are. If they act like a punk then they are most likely not telling the truth. If it is a normal conversation then its a 60% chance of them telling the truth.

Journal 69: Scary Stories

I think the elements should unknown objects accruing out of no where. Some of the un-dead people would be an element. Also some nasty zombies might do the job a little better. Maybe a hand popping out of the wall maybe a little scary. Ghosts maybe included in this, but ghosts are getting a little old. I like classic death scenes or death mystery scenes. Also to be a horror story? It takes allot to scare me, but I think the main element would be a haunted house mystery scene, its old and classic. I don't really have any fear of really anything. Perhaps in Alaska the bears come out at night and they might tackle the tent. The fact that a robber was sneaking  into our house and ran out very fast was kind scary. There was also a time when 4 moose was in front of me, they could charge. I would not move a bit or it would happen. The thing that scarred me the most today was my worldly wise, a living night mere. I think its just the thought that its going to happen, scarred me for a whole week and when it happens its just OK.

Journal 68: My Style

My style is to dress where I am presentable and to look nice. I walk like a normal person... I eat like a normal person... I also think in higher expectations than a normal person would. An example of this is knowing how to survive in certain conditions in the wilderness. I am energetic some times but I mostly just want to lay back and play the Xbox or something. I am mostly neat an I clean my room once a day or at least though away most of my trash. I also like classic music and my mom plays it every time I come home, most people like rock but in my own words I think it destroys your brain and I am having enough trouble with Algebra already. I am not sure this is an opinion but can I be a cool computer nerd? I think I am one I may not be much of a Microsoft word nerd since I never really used it in the US for my work. I am however I am a total programming nerd. I am a nerd and I am cool at the same time and that is my final answer.

Journal 66: Real American

According to the poem, she eats an american food item. (For example, hot dogs)  He has a White girl as her friend. She was also born in america. She choose to include these details because she wanted to state that she was an american. They are convincing, born and lived in the ways of an american. The first thing I would say is "Look at the color of my face." and then I would show them my american passport. I would show them some products we bout in america. I choose these details because these are all relate to america. In fact they would find items that can only be bout in america. I showed the my passport to prove that I am an american. I would show them american items because some are rare and only can be purchased in America. I would also say to look at my face because this is the living proof I am an american. This is the best piece of proof I have that I am an american. The proof of american items is also helpful if I have one in my pocket. I really hope I have my passport in my pocket when this question comes up!

Journal 63: Camp Pictures

On page 471 the picture has a lightly clouded sky. A small mountain over the horizon. A few log cabins on the desert plains. Only few, but a few people walking outside. Large mountains of trash that almost cover the road. Power lines just across the road. A small but rare, stop sign for the military when they pass by. The houses are long but not very high. They have 3 pipes that have smoke coming out of them. Cant keep bragging about the stop sign since its so rare. It has 'Stop' in front and the top is red. The stem is yellow with red a red ribbon spiral. The place has ponds that do not glare in the sun lite. In fact, there is no sun at all, you cant see sun because the clouds cover it. Everyone is indoors for safety reasons, the reason I say this is because its day light and no one is even outside. Everyone has their windows open for the fresh air. Everyone is probably morning that they came to this place. This place has a few cactus there and there and you see shed that is white and small. Everyone right now only wants their sweet bed.

Journal 62: Spring Break

I mostly spent my time during spring break going to places in taipei. I went on the subway and went on a very very fast train. It was so fast that I took a few steps back. I went to Taipei then on.  My family and  went to Taipei 101 and there we went to the grand world market. Then we traveled to the top then we made reservation for the restaurant then we ate there. The food was very good, we could see our house from there! I did some things I wanted to do, but money stood in my way.  I could not go to the graduation trip because it cost way too much money to go there. It cost over 100,000 NT, this is what stopped me from going. I guess happy is not what I had in mind, I am some-what glad to be back in school, however the homework is sometimes hard. I am happy to finally come back and hope for the weekend. School is exciting some times, some times its well, boring. You can say I am in-between happy and mad about going back to school. I love school because of all the friends I have there. I am unhappy because of all of the hard work I need to do.

Journal 43: Elements of Poetry

Some elements of poetry are imagery, similes,metaphors and some use setting,plot and character. I like to use rhymes in my poem, in my opinion it allows the reader to be interested in my poem.Some poems use a fantastic beat in them, and some poems are like a puzzle. You need to place the pieces together to form the image in your head. Also in some past poems I have read, they have imagery. Imagery is the mental picture drawn into your head by words. They also have similes and metaphors, poems usually have a metaphor. This allows the poem to be more exiting. I like the fact of most poems rhyme with the word above, some poems extend the rhyme by the title rhyming with the last sentence of the poem. I think imagery is helpful in poems because it allows me to paint a mental picture in my mind, explaining what their environment or character may have looked like. For example, "The mountains are as bright as the sun and as white as snow". This paints a mental picture into your mind by explaining what the mountain looked like. This is imagery. So poetry has allot of elements, and there is more to be discover about the different kinds of poetry.
