Tears of A Tiger: Internal & Extrnal Problems

int he book tears of a tiger ( the depressing book that we have to read in this class) the main character Andy has just survived a drunk drive crash were his best friend died in now he’s going through all these problems both on the out and inside. It’s so bad he has to see doctor about it. For example he’s right now going through this whole guilt phase were he think he killed his friend on the inside. And on the out side he getting into fights with his friends and parents. So far the only way this book can end up in the end is like Romeo and Juliet a.k.a suicide. Those are my thought s on tears of a tiger so far this is your writer WHY signing out. 

New Year New Problems

Bliar is very impressive i mean this place is huge just their 9Th grade is the size of my intire school. and then theirs Northwood its smaller and not as impresive  but they have the kind of electives i like pluse its my home schoool.I wonder wich one i’ll get into.

Kids and Prison

Today in class we read horrible article on how this 13 year old boy my age killed a man at the age of 11 with a rifle and that he might be trialed as a adult. The prosecutor stated in the trial that “he knew the gun was loaded and how to use it”. The defense said “that if you give a child a gun they will probably shot it”. After this  we listened to a radio cast that stated some facts like ”kids under the age of 13 or so that their brain has not fully developed the sense to  think things through”. While also saying that he did know what he was doing at the time. In my own opinion I think that kids should never go to adult prisons for many reasons such the kind of stress that is in adult prison. Also I don’t think kids could deal with hardened adults. I think that this kind can sort of to the book monster that we are reading in class because Steve is only 16 but that is still under the normal age andthat is still young in the long run. He to is on trial for murder and is being treated as an adult in many similar ways. That is the main ideas of the artical that we read in class today

Monster the book

The setting of this story is mainly a New York prison and it’s about a prisoner that goes by the name of Steve Harmon. Now Steve Harmon is in there on murder charge and on role for death penalty. Now so far the story circles around Steve and how he might or might not die. Steve might only be 16 but he already way over his in trouble. Along with this other character named James king. My prediction for this book is that Steve won’t die but he will be in jail for a long time. That’s what I think about the book MONSTER.

Poems I write continued

dragons

come here,  come here
and I’ll let you hear the greatest tale of all
the tale of the dragons of old
the dragons they roared as they soared
as high as the m.t.’s peek
there riders they cheered with no fear
there enemies they will vanquish
and even the sire still did fear
the dragons firey breath.
 
so young and old
I”ve told my tall tall tale
the tale of the dragons of old

Peer Pressure

Today in class we read this article on peer pressure witch now kind of matters since were in 8th grade. I think the main idea of it was to show us how peer pressure is bad and at the same time good. The writer was writing from the parental view saying how peer pressure effects your child and all. In my opinion peer pressure dose start in middle school. I think this because I’ve seen it in effect kids ganging up on others to make them do stuff.But not all of it is bad stuff I mean I’ve kid come to their friends defense help them to get out of bad stuff.I think it’s hard for some kids to resist because they just really want some respect. Honestly I ignore most of it and shut-up to the rest of those punks. If you trouble with stuff like standing up to them just walk away don’t even say anything that’s my advise about peer pressure.

High School Visits

Today in class we had a video conference with some high school kids at first it really did not work out well. We had some tec problems. But after that we ask them some questions  like :  

Q: Do you have a good relation sip with your teachers?  A: They said that they got along with their  teachers

Q: How hard are the S.A.T.’s? A: The replied that they are hard but that’s why you study.

Q: Is high school stressful ? A: They said that it is  some times.

After we asked the questions they gave us some advise ” If you want to make it in high school you really have to study a lot. Also watch who you hang out with some times they change. And lastly don’t do drugs.”That what happened during the high school video conference.
