My Heaven

If I were to die and go to heaven today, I honestly have no clue of what it would be like. We've all heard the sayings; streets of gold and that we'll all have mansions. I think that both of those are what could be there. I also imagine people singing in choirs all over the place, having deep discussions with one another, looking down on their family on Earth and worshipping God. If food was actually there in heaven, there would be HUGE feasts all the time with laughter and talking going on. There would also be time for you to be alone and able to think and have a quiet time to spend with the Lord. I hope that in heaven you'll be able to know the people you do today the same way, but if not, then okay. I want to walk through the gates of heaven and be welcomed with the "Hallelujah Chorus." This is what I want heaven to be like.

Perfect World

I think Susie's father meant that since nothing different ever happens in the snow globe, the penguin has nothing to worry about. Yes, he might be alone, but he also doesn't need to worry about anybody or anything doing something wrong, hurting someone, or anything to that extent. I don't think Susie's heaven is perfect for her. She misses her family very much and wants to be with them. I would think she considers herself "trapped" because she only wants to be alive and with her family again.

Shakespeare Language

Taylor, thou mealed with the merchant in a miching way. Thou hast baffled your family honor. Thus of your bale, thou art forfended to leave the house. Thou father head-lugged thee to thy house. Thee are now hand-fast to Bartimaeus.

"[Thine] breath stinks with eating toasted cheese.
I think Shakespeare is telling someone that their breath smells bad because of something they ate.

Quotes to Think About

- "We never know the worth of water 'til the well is dry."
This quote can mean many things, but what I take from it is that you never know what you have until it's gone. Such as maybe your friendship with someone, or a sibling that graduated and moved away to college and you used to take advantage of it and now you can't.

9.11.09





When 9/11 happened, I was living in Mobeetie, Texas. It was just before I went to school and my mom had turned on the news. I remember hearing so many stories about what happened and always seeing things about it. I completely think that in twenty years we will still be remembering September 11th. In my own opinion, I think that the terrorists chose to attack America is because we are the most independent and strong nation in the world. I don't know of anyone who was affected from this attack. If I were to write a story about this, it would be from an outside view point and I would write about how this tragedy affected our entire country in so many ways.

Which Is More Important?

Honestly, I think both friendship and my morals are very important to me. Only if I absolutely had to chose one, would I actually do that. Out of the two, my morals are just a little bit more important, but then again, if I were to lose my friendship with that other person, that would be very hard to do as well. So, unless that situation was happening to me, I can't honestly say what I would do about it.

The Lovely Bones

I think this book sounds very interesting. The whole mystery about the murderer and the questions everyone still has about this murder makes it interesting. Honestly, if we don't read this book in class, I might have to go read it myself. So I completely think we should read it during class.

Why Blog?

We can use blogging in the class to be able to know other opinions on different subjects. I feel that it's a good idea to say what you feel and read what other people feel about it, too.
