Journal 65: General Conditions

The details I have found in camp harmony was that it was very plain and houses where all the same. People where very scared and kinda confused about the situation. You where only allowed to bring what can fit in your bag. Japanese interment camps in the US during word war II was very corrupt. The people did not revolt because they are just to afraid. Those camps are scarry and I would hate to be in one. Knowing that you would be killed before the war is over. Everyone should have revolted before it got to that point. Camps itself is just a place people are staying at. A camp is a group of people in one spot. This information is accurate because it is taken strait from the book itself. I also know for a fact that people where always killed before the war ended. I do not know of any self contained camps that people did not end up not being killed at the end. I do however know of some revolts that led to the escape of some people. I also know of some people that where smart and left the area before the matter has gotten worse. Before they where even contained.

Journal 64: Camp Harmony?

Harmony basically means peace or peace together. For example you say we are all in harmony. That means we are all currently at peace together. I do not think the name is appropriate, it is a death camp and everyone at the end was killed. Children and women was throne into that camp for no reason. The US thought they where so called 'spies'. She said "it was hopefully called camp harmony" because she hopes it is not as bad as everyone is thinking. She thinks it is as bad as its going to be. They don't know that but they want hope so they described that in that form. I would give a summer camp name "The number four" or I would give it "Camp 51". I called this camp 51 because it is related to area 51. Everyone in America talks about area 51 because its a cool place. Camp 51 is also a game that I am currently making. I would call my second choice "The number four" because have you ever heard "I am number 4"? I also choose The number four because it mostly sounds cool. Only people in America would find it cool or interesting and any English school in the world. I am sure Dominic has watched the movie.

Journal 82: My Last Journal Entry

Journal writing have been helpful to be because it have improved my reasons skills,. I have improved my spelling and even my language development. It has been helpful to me because it allowed me to learn all of the skills I have shown above. It has improved my social skills and it even showed me a few tricks. It has been helpful also because, its easy! All you need to do is do it! You get an easy A if you simply do it on time! When I look back on all the past journals I have done I see how my skills has improved since then. I see improvement since then. I see a long history, of my past. I also notice that if any random person where to find my blog they would know almost everything about me. Besides that point, it reminds me of the past. It reminds me of even the future, it reminds me of what I need to work on and it reminds me what I have achieved. The topics I have written about have been very interesting. Each one has been fun to me, one blog even made Dominic laugh until his stomach was sore. (In a good way) I usually try to make my journals exiting when a person reads it. I try to add hummer when writing it. These journals are a good and easy way to practice and learn for the future.

Journal 81: In Defense of My Treasure

Well I would do anything to defend piles of cash. I would only surrender it at a market or Nova. Or some store. I would buy something with it. Like games, pizza, soda, etc. The point is that I would gain something from it. Its a trade, its apart of the global system trade. The money is a circle of trading that people are constantly using in the system. However the people need to agree its worth something in order for it to work. If people say for example "Gold is not worth financial value!" then gold would skyrocket downward and become a useless object. It is only value if people value the item. There was once a native tribe that used sea shells for currency. Its not worth anything to us, but to them its forth at least some bread. Currency can be trade like a pig for 10 apples. Or pottery for 5 loaves of bread. The purpose is that if we value it it will be valued. If we don't it wont be. The US values paper because the people value it. The people value gold the same way. Will I protect what I value? Yes, yes I will.

Journal 80: My Treasure

My family is what I value the most. It is important because we grew up together. Lived together, developed a bond between us. My family is very important to me. I also value money because currently it is worth something to people. I cant spend it for food, water, toys, games, gaming devices. Even for a new computer. We spend the money and it goes into the circle of trade. Like Mr. McCool said, someone is going to get stuck with the money. One day someone will have one and don't know what to do with it. Its just say you have a gold coin. What makes it valuable is that its rare and its pure. Copper is pure, but also cheaper but gold is the best. Some computers have gold chips inside. Like supercomputers. In the medieval ages gold was worth value because you can melt them down into currency and sell it or buy land. It was also rare in those days that is why it was valued.  Anything can be valued if a person values it. There is a group of people who have sea shells as their currency because they valued it. Money is only valuable if you have value in it.

Journal 79: My Background

I was born in Organ, United States. After I was born my parents stayed there for at least 4 years and then we moved to Singapore. This is why I remember so much about the place. All I remember of Singapore is it was very clean and spotless. It was however very very hot. The air conditioning was breathing hot air. We lived in a 5 star apartment, there was a large swimming pool with waterfalls and everything. Shortly we got tired of the heat and took a vacation to Ireland. We were treated like kings there. I mean like the kings and queens of England. We stayed at the top of the castle and looked down below. There were guards and a king and queen chair. I remember a very very long table with at least 50 seats each side. We even had servants that ran up and town the top of the castle. My parents were the kings and queens of course. In speaking of my parents, my dad was in the army for 7 years and was a combat engineer. He found a way to speed up the tanks to like 30 MPH extra. It was a part on the bottom of the tank that was built there to slow down the tanks.

Journal 78: Style

I think the style is quite the same in opinion, but this is probably a statement from a boy and a girl narrator. In other words 'Raymond's run" is written by a woman and "The Treasure of Lemon Brown" was created by a man. Now my conclusion of all of this in opinion is that the style is basically is slane and formal writing mixed.

Journal 75: Fighting Words

I believe the words are not enough to fight over. I have been, my brother certainly. He said well 'things' about me. Including the zombie warfare thing, yeah I don't want to talk about it. I think the zombie thing 'could' happen. When hail freezes over. Yes it is very necessarily to fight over. I will defend my quest for Zombies! Would I defend my brother? If its not about the 'zombie thing' then yes I would fight the person with my own words. I would certainly defend a friend, maybe Steven. Hmm, we will see. WHEN HAIL FREEZES OVER! (No offence Steven, (The one in Soviet Russia) It is sometimes necessary to fight over words spoken to you. If a guy said, "You are... Under new management" and its a fat with two mean body guards with guns. I guess it is sometimes necessary to do so. Also it is also not okay to do so because if say like is Dom said "Move" you are not to go all Karate on him and karate chop him. You move and run away. Then Dom starts chancing you then you scream. Yeah then you like get caught in a corner, then you are doomed.

Journal 72: My Tell-Tale Ending

Louder! louder! louder! You say that I am crazy but in fact I wasn't at all the ground shaking the ground moving! It got louder! Louder and louder! I feel a pain in my chest and it only got worse. Worse! Worse! And worse! I start to hear noises, strange noises indeed. I start to shake and tremble at the sounds. I start stomping and stomping. Covering my ears from these noises! It sounds like a plastic bag when you squeeze it but this gets faster and faster. And faster! I scream "It hurts! It hurts!" but how strange. The police officers already left out the door. They are mocking me outside I thought. I run at them as fast as I can saying "You can't mock me, I will tear you apart!" The officers seemed to not have seen me coming. I guess they would have not guessed a positive mad with a clear mind running at them with a stick would just be behind them as they stand. They where just on the hill. A few feet away the house. It may have taken me 10 min to get to them. The roar of my foot steps must have scared them off. I mean it was already morning.

Journal 71: Hints and Foreshadowing

One of the first sentences describes ",but why will you say I am mad? The disease had sharpened my senses" This gives us a clue that he is not in his right mind. He also described "It took me an hour to place my whole head within the opening". This sentence describes that it took him an hour to look inside the room. He a certainly insane, he also said "but I found the eye always closed; and so it was impossible to do the work." This states that because of the old man's eye was closed he would not finish his work. All of these three sentences shows and prove he is truly  insane. This sentence shows how he was obsessed with the old man's eye "One of his eyes resembled that of a vulture---a pale blue eye, with a film over it.Whenever it fell upon me, my blood ran cold;" The over all feeling of this story was mostly obsession. He killed the old man for no reason, only for his eye. He could have just stayed away from him. There was allot of things he could have done besides that. It was also greed, greed for the eye. This story was also unhappy and mad at the same time.
