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.

      I like Gabe Blog on Stephen because he really goes into detail about it and the different parts that liked/ popped out. Like in his second paragraph he noticed that the first stanza really caught his attention. It says I see a little boy of four or five whose face lights up whenever we would play who made me feel its great to be alive and wish that time would never tick away. he really put allot of thought and meaning in his opinion of Stephen.
      
      I also like Santi comment on another sonnet for Stephen because he also put what he really thought the story was about to him. he also put who he think the point of view is from andb how it compared to the others.

Sonnet The Heats

Miami Heats can defeat any team
They're only fourteen & Six but they rule
When the Heat rivals play them the get creamed
When the Heats beat them it is very cruel
They only lost Six games but their still good
Their still good players even though they lose
When they win they give stuff back to their hood
Every new game they are the ones to choose

Dwayne Wade is my favorite player
Leborn James has the most points on the team
When he score it keeps going up like layers
If they lose to the Bull's it's just a dream

Cross over spin offs layups give you're all
The Miami team Heats will never fall

Leonardo da Vinci

     Leonardo DA Vinci was born in a small Italian town of Vinci in 1452. when DA Vinci was little he started drawing pictures of insects, plants, flowers, animals, and birds. Leonardo lived during a time when people in Europe were becoming interested in art. Leonardo was not only a great artist but he was also good at being an Architect, Musician, Sculptor, Scientist, Inventor And in Mathematician. Leonardo wrote his notes and plains backwards so that no one could steal his secrets. He studied nature so that he can use them in his paintings and make them realistic like the picture The Virgin of the Rock.

      The photo that I Chose was The Virgin of the Rock. I chose it because its very descriptive and it has a lot of meaning to it. the picture has rocks surrounding it on the outside and its like it could close in on them. In the picture it shows two women and two baby's and they all have halos except for one who has angel wings. In the back of the picture it has mountains and steam the steam makes it look like its a waterfall. One of the baby's have a golden cross in between his arms and hes on his knees with his hands touching like hes praying. the last detail that's in the picture are the flowers that's every where even on the mountains/rocks.

      I think porsanally that the picture stickes out because Leonardo made it so reallistic and peaceful. I also think that the halos angel wings and the golden cross helps it look so peaceful and magical. The river & the moutains help it look secretive like no one else knows about it. The flowers and the cloths that their wearing make it decorative.

    I like how Gabe had lots of questions to why Jason wanted to save Hera a Greek god. It also kind of connects to my story of self confidence on his journey to save her cause I think he Knows how tough its going to be to save her.

      I also like Sainties story because it was so detailed and he wrote allot about it, it was a  good writing piece.

Self Conffidence

      In the book The Cat Ate MY Gym Suit a girl named Marcy Lewis tries her best to get the best teacher she ever back working at her school because the principal fired her for not saying the pledge.

      Marcy tries her hardest to get her favorite ELA teacher she ever had MS, Finney back. Ms, Finney taught Marcy allot she also helped her make friends in a after school program she created named smedley. To get Ms, Finney back Marcy forms a group that also wants Ms, Finney back and they only have less thane a week to prepare and have a plain to get the teacher back. they have meetings at friends houses and everything but one kid at the school who didn't like Ms, Finney told the principal that Marcy and three other people were the leaders to get Ms, Finney back. Marcy and her three friends Joel Anderson Robert Alexander and Nancy Sheridan were called to the principals office. ll of their parents were there including Marcy's Mom. principal stone was telling the parents that your children are the leaders in a group to get back a teacher who was fired and multiple times I told them they she wasn't coming back but they keep on going on making plains. All the parents except for Roberts Mom was angry about what's going on every body else was glad that their kids were standing up for what they believed in. there for the principal suspended them for ten days no make up for the days they missed and it was going in their records. 

      this part of the story really shows how Marcy has self confidence and stand up for what she think is right no matter the consequences even if she got suspended. To me self confidence is really what Marcy did and stand up for what you believe in no matter what. People can have self confidence in anything it could be during a job, protests pretty much anything. You can be a desprite citizen that have bad people in your neighborhood and your scard to go near them even scard to be in the same building as them so you try to get them locked up for something they did even though they treaten you, you still have self confidence to lock them up.

never leave friends behind

      In the book the outside shot one of the characters Juice get stuck in a music store because their was this contest that he wanted to win, To win he had to guess how many jelly beans are in a jar.

      Lonnie finally went to sleep from a party he had when one of his roommate came in and woke him up telling him that Juice got stuck in a music store. At the party Lonnie was drinking so he was drunk so didn't know half the words he was saying. But Sly his roommate got him up and brought him to the store. when they got their Sly had an idea to carrie him through the transom but Sly was to weak to pull him. Since he couldn't pull him Lonnie tried he had enough strength to pull him but the cops pulled the curve and he lost his grip that's when Sly helped finally he got out. that's when they started to run Lonnie couldn't out run them because he was still drunk so they caught him Sly and Juice ran back to help him but two other cops came up behind them and arrested.

      In that part of the story it really showed their friendship and how they wouldn't leave  Lonnie and let him get arrested for something he didn't do.
