college

i was very happy with my GPA because I met the required GPA for many colleges. but i also wish i was taking honors classes so i can take advantage of the extra points i can achieve. if i keep this gpa up until my senior year, i doubt i will have any problems getting a scholarship.

i learned that i need to take part in commuity service and do extracurricucular activities to be accpeped into high achieving colleges. i also learned that colleges like to recruit stdents from out of state to have a more diverse community. i also realized how expensive some of these colleges are, if i dont get a scholarship. i dont know how im going to get into a good college.

ive been thinking about what path im going to take for the last five minutes and realized that i have absolutely no idea. i probobly wont know what i want to do for a living until i graduate college ! all i know is that i want to make a good amount of money but not having to work every day for eight hours+. i can see myself being a lawyer. or an electrician. im really not sure.

touching the jello ;)

Please describe the feeling that you had when you were waiting to "touch" as well as the feeling once I dipped your hand in to the vase. You cannot mention the word Jello. It must be at least 10 sentences, using descriptive language and at least 5 similes/metaphors.

My heart was racing, as if i was free falling from an airplane. the only thing i could hear was Diana's faint footsteps grow louder and louder, then the footsteps were silent i can "feel" her standing next to me, my heart is beating faster now, faster than ever. i felt like a character in a scary movie being chased by a man with a deadly chainsaw, the only difference was i was completely still. suddenly she violently yanks my hand and has total control over my actions, as if i was a puppet. she slams my hand into a cold container then my hand finally dives into a mushy substance which feels like she dipped my into in open persons stomache. i can feel the intestines and blood flowing in between my fingers. my hands were then slowly removed from the chilled container i can feel a thick substance dripping from my finger. i try opening my eyes but the blindfold restricts my vision. i can hear the reactions of my classmates, all gasping in disbelief that they are touching this unforgiving substance i can hear the others hand penetrating the surface of the thick, mucky material.

sounds

u can hear the waves build up force and then suddenly crash along the shoreline and sweep across the sand. children try to escape the waves as if the wave was  a boat about to collide with the children. you can hear the sound of a child crying and cant make out her words and the crying turns into giggling. silence... the children have stopped playing and the waves have stopped forming until you can hear the distant waves pick up again, then the children let out a playful yell and run away from the waves. by the sounds of those children i can tell there happier than a surfer at the beach. you can hear the trampling of feet as the waves get closer and closer to shore. and when the wave slowly drifts back out to see, the children follow the flowing water back to sea, awaiting the next adventure

mwb part 3

i feel as if i am not part of a group when i get together with my friends Jarret and Tyler because they are both on a lacrosse team, and if they ever start talking about a game i just wait there quietly until their discussion is over. I mean i dont know anything about lacrosse. Another time where i feel as if am not part of a group is when mot of the people im with can already drive, when I dont even have my permit. It just makes me feel like a loner because i cant drive.

1) ? "Uno studies Danny's black eye. From his fist. A wave of regret passes through him." Why do you think Uno regrets the situation with Danny? Do you think that Uno will ever admit this to Danny? Why or why not?

2) Danny talks about how he would freeze up in front of the Leucadia Prep baseball team, why do you think he has an easier time in front of the National City boys?

1.)   Uno regrets hitting Danny because he realizes that he is starting to accept the fact that Danny is better then him. The only reason he hit him in the first place is because he was in a jealous  rage and couldn't accept the fact that this "outsider" was better than him. I doubt Uno will ever admit this to Danny because he is to proud. 

 2.)   i think danny feels as if he needs to impress the leucadia prep boys because in his eyes they are a higher rank in society and in national city he feels a lot more comfortable because he doesn't feel like he needs to impress anyone. At points he feels like he does need to impress people in national city, nut the pressure isnt as intense compared to leucadia.

During Mexican white boy, Uno punched Danny in the face supposedly because he accidently threw a bat at his step brother. Bt the real reason uno hit Danny was because Danny was getting home runs off unos' pitch so Uno just needed an excuse to beat up Danny, im not saying he didnt care about his step brother, i just think he wouldn't have been so violent if he didn’t get good hits off his pitches. If you have ever played a game and was being dominated by a person on the other team, you can understand how Uno felt.
