Fake it until you become it

 One thing I need to get better at is paying attention.  I dislike school as well as many others do.  But I always try my best to pay attention and to get my grades better.  I can start off by asking my teachers for help with things I'm confused on, and trying my best to keep up with homework. I'm Already getting better at this, if I were to compare myself from the beginning of the year till now, there's a big difference. Overtime I know I'll get even more better, and my grades will be way better too.

Propaganda Poster

This propaganda picture showed that Hitler's made it mandatory for all youth to follow him. He wanted all children to think he was the best, even if they didn't know what was going on. A 10 year old doesn't even pay attention to politics and would rather play outside or do other things besides following a person who think he can do what her he wants. The picture says "Youth Serves the Füher.  All 10-year-olds into the Hitler Youth" The picture was intended for the youth and their parents. To show that all young children should follow Hitler. This poster is trying to get all Hitler parents who support him to get their children into supporting him too. Since the children are so young, they can grow up and teach heir children about how great Hitler was as well.

Famous Person I would like to meet

If I could meet any famous person, dead or alive, I'd want to meet Anne Frank. Everyone always asks me if I related to her, because of our last names. If I could meet her, I'd ask her what experiences she had during the war. I'd also ask her how she learned to write out her feelings the way she did. I would just sit and talk to her about all kinds of things, from the war, all the way to her family tree. The most important part of meeting her would be, to compare pictures of our family to see if they look alike, and asking questions about what she knows about them. It would be so interesting to meet her, but I'd probably have so many other questions to ask her, but I just don't know them yet.

Best Advice

The best advice I have ever gotten was from my mom, she told me to always listen to her when she says one of my friends weren't really my friends.  Somehow she can already tell when someone is being fake and only "pretending" to be my friend. She refers to her experiences when she was our age. She always does the same thing with my sister, and she always ends up being right. This is why from now on I will always listen to my mother when she senses a fake friend.

Girl Stolen

Girl Stolen is written by April Henry and is about a girl named Cheyenne Wilder. She is 16 years old with pneumonia and she's blind. Back when she was 13 her and her mother were waking along an empty road, when 2 racing cars came and lost control running right into Cheyenne and her mother. Her mother flew far away from the scene since the impact was so harsh. Cheyenne bumped into a street sign and hit the back of her head, which caused her Brain to bounce off the back of her skull and caused her vision to go blurry.
           The beginning of the story explains how Cheyenne and her stepmother went to the pharmacy to pick up some antibiotics for her pneumonia. Cheyenne stayed in the car while her step mother went inside the store. Before her step mother left the car, Cheyenne begged her to leave the keys in the ignition. So her step mom did, in case Cheyenne got cold, she could put the heat on. A few minutes later someone came into the car, but Cheyenne used her other senses and figured out that that person that came into the car was far too loud. "Even the way the door closed hadn't sounded right. Too fast and too hard for Danielle. The breathing was all wrong too, speeded up and harsh", this is a quote from chapter one, paragraph four. It explains how all the little things Cheyenne could tell that it wasn't her step mother. Sooner or later the man in the car drove off, not knowing Cheyenne was in the back seat.
          Later on, the boys name was introduced, Griffin. Griffin took Cheyenne to his father and brothers to see what they should do. They found out Cheyenne's father was the president of Nike. They wanted a ransom in order for Cheyenne's father to get her back. But Cheyenne's fat her couldn't  give them the price they wanted in the little time he had. Cheyenne tried to escape many times, but failed each time.
          I personally love this book, I love the action and the story behind Cheyenne. Even griffin has a story about his mother. I recommend this book to anyone who likes a little bit of romance, action, and stories that make you never want to put the book down.

My biggest regret

One of my  biggest regrets is getting suspended in sixth grade.  The mistakes I made that day were  very immature and I will forever regret what I did.  That day I could've done so many things different. The only good outcome out of this suspension is that I've learned not to make the same mistakes again, not to do what I did again, and I learned my lesson.  If I could go back to this day I would have never did what I did I will should've kept my anger in and never wrote or said what I said. If you're wondering why I got suspended, which you probably are,  I wrote a "threat" to another student.  I put ""threat"" in quotation marks because to me it wasn't a threat, to teachers it was. From what I recall, it was letting out my anger on a piece of paper.  Little did I know a teacher would find that same paper, and I would get suspended.  So this is suspension is one of my biggest regrets because it will be in my files for every school I attend and I will always have that day burned into my mind.
