A Word that Defines Me..

A word that would define me is Laid-Back

Its kinda two words but its in the dictionary so i guess it counts

It means "having relaxed style or character"

To me it means taking life one step at a time. Not stressing over dumb stuff like girls or about whats going to happen next week if i do this or do this another week.

I think this is the best word that i can think of right now that can describe me. I'm not very good at describing things but thats the best i have. So hope its good enough :D

Poe Reader Response- The Black Cat

Death is the most memorable thing in this story. Death of the car by hanging it. (page 11). Death of his wife too. (page 15) Not just death by regular means, death in rage, murder! The way the death occured. Hanging of the cat so it will have no fear? The man seems gentle in this aspect, but in actuality he was way off his rocker. Cracked, crazy, rage issues, this guy should have been admitted to a mental hospital. Death of his wife is very memoravle or the way she died is. She was just trying to save the cat, but in doing so, she was struck in the head herself. Instantly killing her. All in rage too. Since the cat almost kelled him bye almost tripping him, and causing him to almost fall down the stairs which would have killed him, or so that was implied in the story. These are the most memorable parts of "The Black Car" for me.
This guy was or is redicuously crazy. That bassically somes up what he is. he does stuff in rage which he is inable to control himself when he gets that way. It also says his soul took flight from his body like he was no longer there. This guy cut out his facorite animals eye! That is not normal! Why his eye?? He was just a poor innocent cat! A black one by the way. Also on page ten. He was very tormented as well. aif you hadn't noticed that already, cutting out a cats eye. But after that he ended up hanging the cat! I can imagine this guy being dark and liked to be alone. But the story has no actual physical description of him, so I can only guess from his actions. It also seems he shows no remorse. He killed his wife and was fine when people were investigating.
This short story would be an extremely messed film. Or at least I would make it that way to give the story justice. I would put in that the main character got into bar fights all the time. Even though the story didn't say that. I would make sure people would be able to imply that this guy was an extremely tortured soul. Putting in that he vut his facorite cats eye out. Also I would make sure the hanging portion even that that was redicuously screwed up. His house burning down I would put in definatly since thats also a messed up part and people seem to like really messed up and gruesome things in movie which ussually do well. But family movies also well as well. But I can not see making this story even close to a family film. Can't see who would attempt to.

This is my reader response for black cat

TODAY IN HISTORY!!

Today in world history honors with Mr. Adams we learned about Napolean. We learned tha Napolean was an incredibly great military leader. Even though he was short. We learned that what ultimatly led to his demise was his decision to try to invade Russia and conquer that country. I kind of find that strange that thats exactly what led to Hitlers demise as well. But luckily Hitler didn't read his history books about Napolean. So anyways Napolean had the support of the whole French government and his soldiers trusted him with their lives. Like more then just regular soldiers. They were extremely committed to being with Napolean forever and come with him and fight for any of his conquests.

But ultimatly all great things come to an end and great leaders too. What ultimatly killed Napoleans army wasn't Russia army itself but the incredibly harsh winter, as well as Russias Governments dicision to lure Napoleans army into Moscow and burn the city, as well as take all the food and such, which ultimatly made Napolean retreat, which he should have done sooner but his pride wouldn't let him. Oh yeah Napolean was really stubborn as well if you couldnt tell. So we learned this and a little bit more about Napolean in World History. It was a pretty cool section I hope you enjoyed reading this.

TODAY IN MATH!

Today in math was extremly boring just like any other day -_- We learned chapter 7.1 today. It seems pretty simple I really have no clue how to describe how to do what we learned. It has to deal with sin, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant, and cotangent. Also it has a lot to deal with the fundamental trigonometric idenities chart. Once you understand the chart the rest of the chapter is just using the chart to plug in problems and solve them for the cosine or sine or one of those. Its not that hard to understand, at least not for me but still challenging. I'm not even understanding what i am saying. I don't even think that this is a picture of the chart that we used so if your going to do chapter 7 homework dont go off of that chart, because it will mess you up. Ask Mr. Zirpoli for one his are way better, while your at it, ask him to teach you all of the stuff that we learned today. So this is what i learned today in algebra 2 trig. Tah Dah! Hope you enjoyed reading it. goodnight.

A Book Everyone Should Read

This book was written bye Harold Keith. In my opinion this has to be one of the best books ever. It got my attention from the begginning, and kept me interested through out the whole book.

Its based in the Cival War era. Jefferson Davis Bussey is 16 years old when the Cival War breaks out. He can't wait to leave his farm in Kansas to defend the union against Colonel Watie, the leader of the Cheorkee Indian Rebels.

Throughout the story Jeff learns that there is much more to war then honor and glory. He's an infantry soldier so that means that he must march for miles everyday, watch his close friends die who march beside him and fight beside him, and face near starvation. He realizes that every move he makes could be his last. Jeff gets a different mission though, to infiltrate the enemys camp as a spy. As he does that he realizes that the rebels are just men and boys, just like him and the union. The only difference between them is their cause. Jeff, posing as a rebel waits to get the information he needs for the union cause. Once he gets the information, he is faced with a choice, he either sticks with the confederacy or go back to the union. Which he really cant make up his mind. You'll just have to read the book the find out more..

I don't see why it would be important for people to read, I just found it to be a very interesting book and maybe others may enjoy it as much as I did.
