Golden State

Golden State is on of the out shined team in the NBA. For the first time 2011 golden state best record is( 15-25). Thats not the best record in the NBA but it's the best for Golden State. In the last few game before the season was over Golden State played the La Lakers. In that game Golden State beat them 101-88, for golden state that is very good and also so a hard team to beat.

Carolina Hurricanes Game

On February 1, 2011 I went to a North Carolina Hurricanes hockey game. They played the Boston Bruins. I went with my family and people from the Juvenile Literacy Center.

We had a suite with food and drinks. We had hot dogs, soda, chips, and cookies. We got to eat as much as we wanted.

I really liked the music they played. It was rock/hip hop. I loved when they fought. Everyone got hyped up and excited. When they played music, I loved the base in it. I also liked when they turned the lights off and had spot lights going around the room.

I had a great time at my first hockey game. They played hard, especially Eric Staal. Unfortunately, the Hurricanes lost 2 to 3, but it was still a exciting game.

War

I think that the war with Iraq is a waste of time, money, and is hurting family's all over the world. There is no reason to help a whole country of people who terrorize us and themselves. They do not want out help obviously and they are killing Americans everyday for no reason. A lot of men and women are risking their life but i do not believe it is for a good cause. Nothing ever gets accomplished when our soldiers go over there except for more deaths and chaos. I think the president should call back every soldier and end the war and if they want to attack us we will attack them back and that should cause fewer deaths for Americans. If they actually wanted help it would be different, but they don't.

Tattoos

" Tattoos are a visual manifestation of each person's approach to life and the journey they wish to take"

- Chris Rainer

Tattoos can show many different things. The tattoos I have seen do not show peoples approach to life or the journey they want to take. It does not make sense to me. For example, if someone wanted to be a lawyer they would not get a courthouse tattooed on them. There are a lot of other forms or tattoos as well.

I think a form of tattoo people get a lot is stuff that they believe in. Examples of this could be quotes, or verses. Many people get bible verses tattooed on them, for example.

Another tattoo that is common is the rest in peace tattoo. People like to get this form of tattoo to show respect for their lost family or friends. People also get this tattoo in memory for them.

Tattoos are in a wide variety, so people sometimes get tattoos of a design they like just because they like the way it looks. Also, people get tattoos of things they like such as sports teams as one example. People also can be addicted to tattoos.

Tattoos can show other things than just peoples approach to life or journey they wish to take. I have never seen any tattoos with those two things being shown. Peoples beliefs, rest in peace, and just designs or things they like are all examples of why i believe that tattoos do not show the things in the statement.

Tattoos

"Tattoos are a visual manifestation of each person's approach to life and the journey they wish to take."

Chris Rainer

I do not agree with that quote because people get tattoos for many different reasons. Some people just like an image or it's something to impress others or look like some one they're not. They might tell about where the person is and not where they're going in life. Later, people might change their minds about what the tattoo represents.

For example, Lil Wayne gets tattoos that he's not supposed to because the tattoos support different gangs. He does this because he doesn't know who he is or what he wants to be. He's just putting on a show. All his tattoos tell us is that he's a lost sad person.

Maybe for some people tattoos tell us about who they are but that's not true for all.

Crazy teacher

I always knew my teacher was different. I didn't realize how different til she held the school captive. It all happened when we were eating lunch in the cafeteria. I was talking to two of my friends about my summer vacation when I noticed the food tasted kinda funny. I was eating a cheeseburger. It tasted like medicine a little bit. That's all I could remember. When I came to,the other students and I were all in the gym. We were all piled up on the floor like somebody just threw us in there. There were teachers and students on top of each other. We were all confused.

I stumbled to the door and tried to open it. I couldn't because it was double chained. Each door was double chained from the outside. Everyone started to panic. The principle told everybody to calm down and everything is going to be okay. Then an announcement came over the intercom. It was the monstrous Ms. Thorndike, Home Econ. teacher. She said that she was doing this to get even. She told us that she has had to pay for the destruction and mess in her room. Every time somebody left the milk out she would have to pay for it out of her paychecks. Now today is payment day.

I put my hand in my pocket and felt the inner pocket have something in it. It was my spare phone., I always have it if my regular phone dies out or gets taken.

Then Ms. Thorndike blew toxic gas through the vents. When we came to again everyone was complaining that their electronics were taken. We heard Mrs. Thorndike's voice again. She said
"There is no help for any of you." I felt in my pocket and my cell phone was still there. I went to the gym corner and started dialing. "911, What's your emergency?" I said that we needed help and were being held hostage at my school. After that I gave her my address. She told me that she'd call me back in ten minutes. When they called I told them where Mrs. Thorndike was hiding.

In a few minutes I heard the sound of two gunshots echoing throughout the building. Two more gunshots sounded then I heard a crazy voice screaming "You're going to be in trouble! You'll all pay."

The door was kicked open. Through it came fifteen police officers dragging Ms. Thorndike screaming. "I'll be back" were the last words I heard from her.

I got a $500.00 reward for saving everybody. I used it to buy a new cellphone.

Aero TT


I want an Aero TT because it can go up to 400 km/h.I want one because it is very fast it is one of the fastest in the world. I'm also going to drive it everywhere, including the mall. I would get a custum paint job with my initials on the side in black and stitching on the headrest. It also looks like a Lamborghini but it's faster. When I would drive by it would catch everyone's eye. Unfortunately I need $650,000 to buy one so it may take a long time for me to get one. To get one I will be a successful engineer or NFL player.
