last Coming of age

     the book that i finally Sunrise over Fallujah is mainly the same as real life.

     the main character and his friends discover things that didn't happen before they wen to the army. Robbin had bad memories like seeing a child die he was always trying to get that out of his mind. He had friends that he couldn't trust but ended up trusting them at the end. Although being in the army was sometimes fun he always worried if something bad was going to happen, whether if his friends would turn on him or people would attack the force. He always wrote to his uncle just in case something went wrong or he if he needed tips
   
     This book taught me that if i  ever want to serve my country think twice before how you want to serve it. It could be being an marine bomb diffuser or helping to cure chemical diseases. you should also think twice because just like Robbin seeing a kid or close friend die could change you.

Coming of age blog 2

In the book I'm reading sunrise over Fallujah my character just witnessed a little boy die.

My character was shocked he kept on wondering why the little boy kept on running he also asked himself why his partner killed him. He tried to get past the fact that he was dead and block it by telling himself that the boy was probably a boy that hated and wanted to kill americans. He looked at his team and saw that all of their hands were shaking in shock wishing that it never happened.

I think that when people want to go to the army they forget about things like kid dieing. Also when they see it they get shocked and don't want to stay no more cause there scared that the same thing might happen to them. That's why if you want to join the army navy or be a cop think hard think about how you might be putting yourself in danger.

comming of age post #1

      The comming of age book I chose is written by Walter Dean Myers called Sunrise over Fallujah.

      So far the book is about a man named Robin who is in the army.  His best friend Jonesy is in the army with him.  Everytime Robin goes to a new place he always get jumpy and nervous because he didn't know what was going to happen while he was there.  He wants to be in the action but at the same time he don't want to be in it.  The people in his unit are Major Spring Session, Captain Coles, Captain Robert Harris, from Dixx Hills, New York,Corporal Charlie Jones from Stone Mountain, Georgia and Corporal Eddie Evans from Stormville, New York.

      Pvt. Robin Perry is learning the bssics about Operation Iraqi.  There are four phases Iraqi to the operation.  The first phase is to understand and make an assessment of the area, the second phase is the preparation of the battlefield, which means bombing the enemy, the third phase is to forcefully remove the present regime in Iraq and neutralize their weapons, the fourth and final phase is the building of a successful democracy in Iraq.

      At Camp Doha in Kuwait, there was always this one person that stood out from the rest of the people in his unit.  Her name was Marla.  Robin didn't really know if he could trust her because she always picked on by making jokes about him.  Robin's unit had to decide who was going to be riding in the humvee with him.  He chose Jonesy and Cpt. Coles but while he was deciding on the last person Marla jumped in.

1       My two favorite blogs are Gabe's and Oscars Gabe's on pythons and Oscar's on plagiarizing.

      I like Gabe's because I also think pythons are dangerous and people don't understand the damage they can do when they grow up instead of throwing them in the wild they could give them to a reptile zoo are so. I thought that Oscar's blog on plagiarizing because you could go to jail or worst for it and he's right if your going to copy it cite the web site and who wrote it, just write about the topic in your own words differeent.

      I think that i could improve on writing longer paragraphs and including beater details on my blogs. I think i could do what oscar did and write in seperate paragraphs like making body paragraphs. and last i think i could do like gabe and write all the posabilities of what would happen or might happen.

2     M.S. Galang is right allot of teachers are right they do reconize plagiarizing. They can eseacially reconize it if you write like an child and when you write sophisticated. He/ she could've wrote the source at the bottom of the page near the article. there are three ways to avoid plagiarism is for one don't think about copying something of the computer the teachers will find it. Second always write the web site you fond the information or write the person you got the info from. The last way to stop plagiarasm is to do your own work if you have a hard time ask a teacher for help.

Much ado about nothing

      I thought Much ado about nothing was funny and interesting play. the play had some funny parts that kept me interested in it and even though there was some funny parts they kept it serious so there could be some sad and some important parts too. the parts that I liked was when the detective's came out.During the play a part that I didn't like was the beginning of the play when they were being introduced. lastly I thought that when the people tried to frame the mans daughter made it more interesting.

      Act 4 in Romeo and Juliet we meet a new character Friar Lawrence, in scene 1 Juliet is kinda wondering if she should or shouldn't marry Paris but Friar is helping her with her decisions. Scene 2 is about when Capulet and lady Capulet are talking about a party the next day, to get 10 cheifs that are good ornaments and what they should wear, Juliet and Nurse enters and Juliets talk to her mother saying that ive sined and lady Capulet says how instead of the party your going to church. Scene 3 Juliet tells how she feel to meet god the next day and she takes a vial thats supposed to help her but she probaly thinks that Friar got to it and poisoned it. Scene 4 when Capulet make sure that the food is alright and they talk to Paris Nurse wakes Juliet and trims her. Scene 5 Nurse tryies to wake Juliet but she thinks shes dead then she calls everyone else and they all try to wake her but she don't wake up. 

Romeo & Juliet

      From act 1 scene 1 in Romeo & Juliet  It really shared allot of info on it with how all the characters act and how they care for or hate the others around them. like with Gregory and Sampson they were the first two characters in the book and it showed that they are two servants for the Capuletsand they want to kill the Mountagues and rape women. Tybalt is a mean man who really wants to kill Benvolio, Benvolio is Romeos cousin and he really care for his family but he still can fight if he needs to. Lady Capulet is Juliets mother who wants Juliet to marry Tybalt, the Nurse Is like a second mom to juliet and she really care for Juliet. And last Abram is the Mountagues servant who fights Gregory and Sampson.
