Quotes and explanations

Quote #1
“The essential sadness is to go through life without loving. But it would be almost equally sad to leave this world without telling those you love you love them.”- Unknown
Explanation
I think this quote is saying that if you pass away without telling people that you love you love them .That it would be painfully sad. Almost as sad as going through life without anyone to love. If you die lonely while you love someone it
would be hard to forget that person. So you will be sad forever.
Relation
I think this quote has taught me to at least tell the person you love in the world that you love her or him. If you do not you will miss a great opportunity to a life that is not
lonely. If you do you might live a life that is not lonely because if you are lonely most likely you will not be happy
or satisfied with your life. The most richest person in the world might be sad because he has no one to love.

Quote #2
“Confront the dark parts of yourself, and work to banish them with illumination and forgiveness. Your willingness to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing. Use the pain as fuel, as a reminder of your strength.”-August Wilson
Explanation
I think it is saying if you try to fight your flaws then you will get more power then trying just to lose them or for them just to fade.
Flaws will try to fight back but you will fight back harder. You need to stay strong on keep fighting. Do not back down until you
have won.
Relation When you are trying to win over the hardest opponent which is flaws do not try to take shortcuts around it. You have to fight it until it loses. It will try but you will try harder. You will win if you do that. You will overcome that flaw.

Punishment

Sitting in my room grounded for the summer,
thinking in my head (what a bummer).
As I get ready for school,
I'm making sure i dont look like a fool.

On my way home only 4 more days to go,
Groaning as I lay on my pillow.
Thinking it isn't my fault,
But it is...it is my fault.

Advice for young men and ladies =)

The topic for today's class was how a young man or women should act or be. Like a man being tough or women being weak and not tough. I think that guys should be more respectful to women. Women should get allot of respect from guys they should be treated gently and not rough. Guys could be treated with a little more roughness then girls. So when they have
to go through life with people bullying them or there girlfriend or wife they should be able to stick up for themselves or there lovers. The guys can be respectful by helping her in the car or opening a door for them. Girls can be respectful to guys by being curtius and nice. Overall I
think that guys and girls should respect and be nice to eachother.

Today in the class

Today in the class we did poetry again.
This time it was harder to compose. It was alot more hotter than last time.
There was also alot more noise. I love writing and reading poetry.
My poem was about a moshpit. I do not remember what concert it was at but
it was awsome. The day was a good one. But it was too hot & too noisy.
Mr Vega seemed calm and nicer than usual . He must have started out with a good day.
We started with the journal and then we read a poem call "We the People" It was about the
" MTV " generation. The poem was written by Alexis Kellner Becker .

The moshpit

The moshpit was a flock of birds fighting over a big piece of bread.
The moshpit was a group of fighting dogs in a pit.
The moshpit was alligators in a rsuhing river.
The moshpit was a hot sweaty box of torture.
The moshpit was a box of violence.
The moshpit was the beggining of the concert.

Today in Mr.Vega's class

Today in class we didn't do anything much fun except read a story called Buried Talents.
We also did our journals and it was about men & womens part in life. Thats about it
now we are on the computers blogging todays class was intresting but boring at the same time.
I think it went well today in summer school. Mr. Vega got a call from a parent.And took like 10 minutes outside class the class went crazy.

The Fall

I hear the thunder of my wheels rolling.
Until I hit a large rock.
It happened so fast
It was like falling on sharp glass.
The ground peels a thin layer of my skin as thin as an alvacado.
Then my left arm hits the rainbow like curb.

I hear a crack
sounding like a falling branch.
I get up thinking its just a scratch.
Until I feel the pain.
The rainbow like curb has broken a part of my body's frame.
I feel like I have to scream
I am now in a loud big white van hoping it was all a dream.

30 minutes of poetry

Today at school we had to do thirty minutes of poetry. It was as really easy for me but I love making poems. My poems was about me falling off my skateboard. When i broke my arm into
2 different places. But you'll hear all about it in a different post.
Today was just a regular day but with a little more fun. Outside is a good envrinment to write
poetry In my opinion I think so. After we finish most peple had time to just relax
for 10 minutes.Then we went back to class.

Stuff thats not about school

I am grounded for the whole summer. I CANT EVEN SKATE. Im grounded because I
got an F and a D in history and math. My mom said that if i get a D or an F in any subject

Its still cool.

Reflections on todays class

Today in class. Of course we did the O.A. After that all we did was read a couple
of horror short stories. I read the HOP-FROG. I think the book was good but
the ways the author wrote it was confusing. We then made a poster about the
Monkeys paw. I enjoyed todays day at summer school this was reflections of
todays English class.

Possible Poem Topics

Thats what Think are some possible topics.

The Masque of the Red Death

Today in English I read a book by Edgar Allen Poe. (my favorite horror story writer.)
It was called The Masque Of The Red Death. I enjoy all his stories like The Tall-Tell Heart
& The Fall Of The House Of Usher. The storry I read today was about a prince and his
kingdom dieng from the RED DEATH. He and a thousand of his friends sealed themselves
in a big Church. They have a party and then an unknown person is spotted by the prince.
The prince wants he/she or it to show its face. It does not reply whne he tells it to do so.
So he tries to sentence him to death. But no one wants to get near He/she or it.
He tries to stab it. But suddenly he falls to the floor. People watch as he shows simptoms
of the red death. People try to hurt the murderer but the manage to only take of IT'S
mask. Nothing was behind the mask no face. Suddenly all the thousands of people drop dead
and bleed. The red death always has its ways of finding its victims.
