THE QUIZ BOWLERS

                                      Have you ever been selected for a trivia thing where you have to answer questions on news around the world. Well I have, at our school it is called the quiz bowl. In third grade I was selected and Lisa Rozier. We did pretty good we worked together and took turns answering so I believe we were OK. In fourth grade I didn't make it but this year I did. Jake Scroggins and I went to the quiz bowl. Me and Jake were close friends so it would be easy to get along and maybe win. We mostly had to study at home because we didn't have time to study at school. This year was going to be hard we went against the smartest in the school. From Mrs. Tobler Alrondra Rios and Shawn Fryman,Ms.Hennings was Martha Guzman and Rocio Ventura,Mrs.Strangs was Jose-Juan Trujillo and Jorge Mendez,and last but not least Mrs.Emmert Derrick Barbee and Jake Scroggins. Our competition was hard but we still succeed. I would love to do Quiz bowl again any time.

THE AXE MURDERER!

         Have you heard of any weird murders this week. Well if you haven't you are going to now. Twenty year-old Paul Taylor will spend at least 23 years in prison for killing 15 year-old Anthony Walker. Wow can you believe that? If you thought  that was interesting wait til you hear this. His 17year-old cousin Micheal Barton, who supplied the murderer with weapons was sentenced to prison for 17years. Anthony was attacked with an ax while escorting his girlfriend to the bus. I can't believe that someone would attack a high schooler with an ax while he was escorting his girl. I wonder how the girlfriend felt watching him die right before her beautiful eyes so much agony and pain! The judge described this case as "poisonous!"

                                          HOW DO YOU DESCRIBE THIS CASE?

IF I HAD ONE WISH!

If I had one thing to give to the world it would be happiness and peace. For example when we declared war with Iraq Bush could of just asked did they have weapons of massive destruction. Then if he saw them or heard them then he could have sent the soldiers. Another one is the hurricanes. When the hurricanes happened everybody was shocked . This part makes me really think. When something happens to a family or a natural disaster cause a tragedy they blame the leader[president]. I mean it wasn't his fault it happened. I guess that I just don't understand. The way I would bring happiness and peace is by becoming a leader who everybody follows because I will lead them to the right path! See people just a few words can stop us from being a united country!      

                                                                    WHAT CAN YOU DO TO HELP OUR NATION BE ONE!

THANKSGIVING THANKS

     One of the things I am thankful for is my family! They help me when I am down and depressed. We lead each other to the right path. Even when they work extremely hard, and are very tired, they spend time with me. We have talked about many memories together and how we became a successful family. I am thankful for them and they are thankful for me. That's why I am apart of a heartwarming family!    

     I am also thankful for my talents. My talents are athletics. If it wasn't for my talents I wouldn't be who I am today. Talents can help you. Like say a cat was stuck in a tree and you, could throw a ball at it or if you could jump high you could use that abilities. See your talents can help you! But don't ever ever not use your talent because it is weird!

                                                       WHAT MAKES YOUR FAMILY HEARTWARMING?     

                                                         WHAT ARE YOUR TALENTS AND HOW DO THEY HELP YOU?    

RECREATING A NEW POST

This post is really about one of my post that were not really good so I am revising it. I thought, erased, I rewrote I did every thing to make this post better. I hope you'll like it.

       Do you want to know how much fat is in your lunch; well if I tell you you have promise not to fall out! There is an amazing amount of fat in school lunches. There is about 32%-33% of fat in hot lunches. Man and do you know about 86% kids and teachers get hot lunches everyday! Now bag lunches are way healther than hot lunches I mean way better! Now me on the our hand I am real skinny and I eat hot and bag lunches but mostly hot. I am not saying you should eat hot but watch what type of hot lunches you eat you don't have to eat every thing on your tray.   

                                   DO YOU THING OBESTY HAS GOT OUT OF HAND! EXPLAIN?

50CENT and EMINEM GET THEIR GAME ON!

   The Mobo Awards are like the Grammy awards for kids. The people I am talking about are the most award winning rappers. The first one is 50CENT. He won three awards, the best R&B rapper, BEST SINGLE for his grand hit IN DA CLUB,THE BEST album GET RICH OR DIE HARD TRYIN'. Wow I can't believe it; those are the hardest awards to get! You can tell he worked hard to get to the top. One day I will make it to the top with my great athletic abilities!

                     

  The other person is my dawg EMINEM. Ring tones are cool right. Well if you like EMINEM you won't hear him on your phone. Here is why, with DERRICK with the insider. His lawyers said they get thousands of dollars every year and this is a big business. They went to court to sue the phones and the karaoke companies who don't have a licenses to sell his music. I am surprised that a rapper like him doesn't want his music in karaokes or In phones.                     

                                                  Would you take this serious or not explain!

WEIRD THINGS ABOUT FROGS

                                                                            THREE-HEADED FROG           

    Don't you think frogs are your normal nice kind of amphibians? Well after this you might not think so! Kids at a nursery were shocked when they stumbled across a three-headed six legged frog croaking. I wonder what happened; I think it got like that because of the climate or pollution in the environment. I have heard of three-headed animals, but a frog I just can't believe it. The nursery thought it was just three frogs together, but when they saw they  were attached it was a whole different story. I think that was an awsome sight for some young kids like them to see something so amazing. It was a good chance for them to enjoy themselves. When they grow older, they will probably tell their kids the sight they saw.

                                                                        

                                                                         KILLER FROGS ATTACK   

   

     Killer frogs are ramping across Britian and no animal is safe from this vicious animal. They eat fish, babybirds, and other frogs. What type of animal like a frog would eat it's own kind? I think that is crazy. Experts are so worried that if the public sees any they want them to tell them. I would love to see a the frog in action. Wouldn't you want to see it? The frogs are about the size of a pencil case. With the amount of frog spawn their could be thousands of them soon!

                                                                         TELL ME SOME WEIRD THINGS YOU HAVE HEARD OR SEEN!

WITHOUT YOU"LL THERE WOULD BE NO ME

I am so glad that I have friends and family that care about me. I usually don't think of the things people do for me. The first thing I want to talk about is my family. My family is important to me because they show me the right path to victory.

    My friends are like brothers and sisters to me. We care for each other and help them when our heads are down. When we get done fighting or arguing we make up an do our special hand shake. I am so glad to have friends like that.

     Last but not least I care about weblogs. Weblogs matter to me also because with out weblogs I would be a horrible writer. Also without weblogs I Wouldn't be able to change the world with my marvelous writing.

                                                What would change your life if you didn't have it?

THE HERO OF THE GAME

It was on a very sunny Saturday afternoon. We were at NEW BIRTH Football Field for the 5Th game of the season. I was starting at WR [wide receiver]. I was the main WR that meant I would get the ball the most. The beginning of the first half we where up 14-0. I was so excited, but not to excited. I didn't get the ball. So I complained to my coach, and he said I would get the ball! So the beginning of the 3rd half it was 1st and 10 at the 30 yard line. I was so nervous my sweat began to pour down my face. The quarterback was in the pocket scrambling. When he through the ball I ran so fast I began to fly. At the last second I caught the ball. When I got tackled it felt like thunder striking my body. Then when I got up the crowd was roaring like man eating lions and the cheerleaders were cheering their best cheer. The exact play got us a touchdown. The final score was 26-0. I will never forget the day I became a hero in the game.

   

                                                                   COOL!                                                                                                                                 

Deadly Disasters

There are a lot of things that have been happening this week that were dangerous and here are the ones that I wrote about.

                                                                 LOINS LET LOOSE BY KIDS                  

                                                                           Just by the title that should scare or make you jump up. This is how it happened. A group of kids untied a circus rope and a lion was in there and by the way it is a female lion. It just roamed around the city looking for food while people were panicking around it. People had to go indoors while the lion trainer tried to get the lion. After this tragedy the people tried to sew the owner for not making sure the lion was secured in it's cage.

                                                              SHARK ATTACKS GIRL                                          

                                                                      Fifteen-year-old Bethany Hamilton from Hawaii  gets bit by a shark and here is the insider. She got bit by a tiger shark the most dangerous and deadliest shark in the world. She was wearing a wetsuit  three times thicker then her other ones. Also she wanted to become an ace surfer but when her arm got bit off her dreams failed, oh though we think. Even though she could not make her dream came true she found a new goal. She now writes books about how she survived the deadly attack.

                                                               I woneder what it felt like when she was about to get bit or why sharks bit people. Think it is because they are scared of but sharks scared of humans I thought they were the kings of the. I wonder why those kids untied the rope and why didn't the lion eat any of the people if it was so. I just wonder why do things like these happen.

                                                              WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THIS HORRIBLE EVENT!
