blog about whatever

            This week we got to blog about anything we wanted to write about, I want to write about the book were reading in class which is "The Five People You Meet In Heaven." The book begins as this older man name Eddie is at work which is the Ruby Pier and it's his 83 birthday. Eddie has worked there his whole life and even went there as a child. Eddie winds up dying from a ride that fell off the track the only thing he remembers when he gets to heaven is that he saw a little girl and he tried to push her out of the way before the cart has fallen on them. He doesn't know if he saved her or not, because when he gets to heaven he's still at Ruby Pier alone and can't talk until he meets this one guy there who is blue, which is the blue man. The blue man tells Eddie how the blue man died, and he told Eddie that Eddie killed him. The blue man tells the story and said " that when Eddie was seven it was his birthday and Eddie's ball rolled into the street and the blue man almost hit Eddie." The blue man then drove down the alley and then winded up having an heart attack. That's what we have read up to so far in the book, I actually like the book and don't mind reading it either. It's easy to read and to understand, I hope we wind up watching the movie also.

         When I am twenty five years old I want to be working in the medical field in the hospitals, I have always wanted to work in the medical field since I was younger. I still don't know which branch I want to go into, as of now I have been thinking about being a OBGYN.

the end of the story

   I think from what i have read that Odysseus is going to tell Penelope that he is  really Odysseus and not the old man. I think that one night when everyone is sleeping he's going to sneek into where the suitors are and kill all of them, then when Penelope wakes up the next morning sit her down and tell her what he did and who he really is. I hope Odysseus tells his wife the truth about who he is and what he's been up to for the past twenty years. I don't think he's going to be the old man for much longer, i believe he's going to kill all the suitors before the competittion that Penelope is going to have the suitors do. I think once Odysseus tells his wife the truth he will return to himself and not look like the old man anymore. I also think once he tells her shes going to be happy and they are going to live with eachother like nothing even happened. Thats what i think is going to happen in the end of the "odyssey".

A Guest In His Own House

         When Odysseus asks for food the men give him scraps of food, they think that someone sent Odysseus who looks like the old man. They don't know that the old man is actually Odysseus. They treat Odysseus very bad, they insulted him, and then try and fight Odysseus. No one thinks that Odysseus is going to come home so they start as many problems as they can. I don't think they should have treated him with disrespect even if it was Odysseus and they knew it our not.
          In the article i read it was about two young men who beat up a 59 year old man who was homeless. The man is homeless and was behind a burger king one day looking for cans, when the two men came up to him and started beating him up. The men hurt him pretty badly and then got away until the older man went to get treatment for the damage on his body from the young men. Once the older man complained about what happened to him the local police got a hold of the two young men and arrested them as soon as possible. The one young man had his court date and has to go to jail for a year and/or 1,000 dollars fine. The other young man hasn't had his court date yet. I think the two young men should go to jail longer, its disrespect to beat up person. I don't agree with what they did, the older man wasn't doing anything to them but they could mind their own business and had to start with a poor old man who is harmless. I think that people like to pick on people who are weaker then them so then that person feels bigger when they really aren't.
       I think that what happened to Odysseus and the old man are two stories that are just alike. They are both treated badly and don't deserve it, they were unharmful men minding their own business. I think that they both got treated poorly because they are "weaker" because they are both older men. The suitors and theses young boys thought it would have been funny to beat up people who are weaker then them. They both were wrong for what they did, and should have gotten in a lot more trouble.

Returning home

Jeffery Springsteen's situation relates to Odysseus  because they both return home and their houses are trashed. Jeff's house was trashed, broke windows, throw up everywhere, missing things, poop on the floors, just gross and discalled for. They both were away to fight for their country and that's the pay back they get, people should respect them for fighting for us. I don't agree with what the kids did, because it's disrespect and people should be cheering them on for being away and fighting for us. I think the kids should be charged with a lot of fines and jail and community service time. The kids should get in so much trouble that the kids will never want to do something like that again. I don't think the kids should ever get away with something like this at all. I don't think that Jeff or Odysseus should have returned home and seen their houses trashed, they didn't deserve it at all. People should be going onto anyone property and vanishing what belongs to someone else. I would be very mad and upset to know that someone was brave enough to do this to stuff that i own and my house that i live at. I think that it was worst that he came home and saw his house like that, the people who live around you know what goes on in your life. The teens had to know some what that he was in the army or air force anything. I would never go for this, and if they were my kid they would never be happy to be around me or hear what i have to say.

It's Tricky

I don't think it was a good idea for Odysseus to make the Trojan horse and sneak behind his enemies back. It was sneaky and not a good idea, he was getting himself in more trouble then he should have. Odysseus is tricky and brave at the same time, he was brave for doing this to his enemies but he's sneaky by doing it behind their back with out them catching on. He knew what he was doing and didn't get caught and still pulled it off. I give Odysseus the credit for being able to build this big Trojan horse and have people in it and enter the town with out the towns people saying anything with it. He did a good job with it, but yet he is a very sneaky person i don't think i would have been able to pull it off and do what he did to anyone, my enemies not even close. I don't get how no one caught onto this idea and didn't realize that he was sneaking something in after all the drama they have had. That's why i think Odysseus is sneaky and also very brave, because the towns people could have caught on and killed him for what he did.

blog about whatever(:

Halloween is one of favorite holidays, its the end of October. This year its on a Sunday and we have school the next day which i don't agree with. I think we should have off the next day, i want to go out for Halloween but its not that big of a Halloween anymore to kids my ages. Kids my age grew out of the Halloween fun, even most little kids aren't that excited for Halloween to come. Halloween is not like it used to be, I remember when I was younger I would count down til Halloween and i also would get my costume a month ahead and wear it every day til Halloween came. I remember going out with my friends with my pillow case and try to get more candy then i did the year before. Some people had cool ideas on Halloween like big candy bars, sodas, money, pretzels. The worst thing about Halloween was the walking, i loved trick or treating but I hated all the walking. I also remember coming home and my mom making me show my mom every piece of candy so she could check it to make sure it wasn't open or looked touched by anyone who was handing it out. I remember since I was alot younger then my brothers and they wouldn't go out, I would give them all the pieces of candy i didn't like. I wish Halloween was the same as it used to be, my mom buys alot of candy every year and it always seems like you have more and more left in our bowls after the night is over. Not many parents want their kids trick or treating because you cant trust people like you used to be able to, I don't blame the parents on that either though. I used to love Halloween but now its just another holiday to me even though I still wanna go out this Halloween to get all that candy. Many people don't give out candy to kids who are older either because they don't think teenagers should go trick or treating.
