P.O.V. i Robot scene

The detective and the doctor walk into a warehouse full of what seemed to be identical robots. They did not know what they were going to find but they knew what they were looking for.

80 word dash

this picture portrays a hard working black maid during a time when Americans were very patriotic, maybe during a time of war. perhaps this is a picture that symbolizes how hard women work during times of way while their husbands are gone.

looking into her eyes and seeing the expression on her face shows that she has been though a lot, but she seems very content with her life.

A&P from Big Tall Goony-Goony's point of view

Okay, here we are walking into the A&P half naked because “Queenie” here didn’t want to go to her car after we left the beach.

Finish this

Alanah poured coffee down her throat as if....
she needed it to live.
she had moved through her day in a haze
she could barely make out her assignment her eyes a-blaze.
she couldn't think
and didn't want to blink
she only sat there

For she work she was given was a heap.
she didn't put her head down for fear of falling asleep

but beyond the haze she could see
that some one had put on a new pot of coffee.

She asked boss if she could leave.
the caffeinated beverage she was to retrieve.

But before she left she herd him say,
"Grab me one too I have been needing some all day."

Riddle poem: worthless curse

At the bottom of every pocket and
in the lining of your purse
you always find this evil curse
Its sometimes thrown away
or just left to stay
no one uses them anyway
it’s as bronze as a medal,
cold like a metal
and as worthless as
a bike with no pedals.
But in great numbers you’ll see,
that this curse brings great prosperity.

Movie Clip Poem

4 boys Ride up to a boy and a girl on bikes
They tease the boy and the girl screams..,
“Take a hike!”
They throw rocks and the boy and he stays quiet
All the while the girls tries to stop this awful riot
The boy tries to get away
But the braces on his legs made him stay
The boy thought “my legs weight a ton”
He was almost out of strength when
the girl says
“RUN FORREST RUN!”
A little girl watches in tears
As the poor boy runs from his peers
Who bother him about his condition
The running boy shed his gears and
Since then he has been running for years

WHAT WE'VE LEARNED

Being young means that you are naïve about things that go on.


Being a young person means learning to be independent.


We are humans, we have feelings, and we do want to achieve great things. We just need more activities.

The things you should know about me: ZETNOED EVORGRAH

The first thing you should know about me is, I am a big fan of music of any kind. I don’t limit myself to just one genre of music either; I like anything from Toby Keith and Evanescence to Kanye west and Outkast. I believe that is why I wanted to learn to play an instrument through my sheer love of music.
You should also know that I like to watch movies and T.V. shows that are funny and interesting to watch. My favorite movies include Tropic Thunder and The Hangover, these movies are both hilarious and I would watch them every day if I had the chance to.
There are a lot of movies that I like but there are also some that I don’t like because they are either too boring, poorly made, or just too stupid to watch. These movies include The Lovely Bones, Room 401, and the Bone Collector. None of these movies caught my interest. Along side of my favorite movies are my favorite television shows, just like my favorite movies, they also peak my interest. They are either very interesting to watch or funny, the shows include Family Guy, Mad TV, and Animal Planet.
The final thing you should know about me is, I eat a lot of fast food. I am always on the move doing something or going somewhere. I don’t always have time to cook something so ill stop at my favorite restaurants either McDonalds, Taco Bell, or Burger King.

apostrophy poem...(To the Yellow Rose of Texas)

You stand up and check the roll
To look for absentees
you scroll down your paper-- and a strange thing
do you see

the class was very empty
none of the kinds were there
you wondered what had happened
the thought you could not bare

u run outside to find that ---
your kids have gone a-stray
they stayed out for recess too long
the bell didn’t ring that day

Journal Entry # 1 I wish someone had told me.....

I Wish someone had told me that joining bridge builders looked good on a college application. Last year when I was in the tenth gradethe people from bridge builders came to my school to talk to us about their program. I wanted to join but I was already taking part in a program similar to bridge builders. I took my ime filling out the application and the due date passed.It was too late.

Line Poem:

The people that paved the way
made things better for today
they made things better
by writing a letter
or doing something in a new way
but the peple who paved the way , couldnt always stay
the nonbelievers took their lives and thrashed them all away
like martin luther, who had a dream
michael jackson who could sing
and jimi hendrix who whould ring the sounds of a guitar using just six strings
or maybe the hooper who was a decent shooter
that paved the way for us in the future

Where Should I go This Hallowen

Last year around October, I was invited to a Halloween party by some friend who don't go to my school. It was really a children's party and they and and their parents wanted me to help out with by setting up games and food tables. It was the beginning of October and i didn't think that i would be doing anything around then so I said that I would come.

It was almost the end of the month and the day of the party was drawing closer. One day they called and asked me if I was still going to come, nothing had come up and my mind hadn't changed my mind or any thing so I said that i was still going.

The next day at school my friends tell me that they are going to the corn maze on Halloween night {The same day as the party}. Without thinking I said that I was going to the Maze. I had never gotten a chance to go to the corn maze and i really wanted to go. Later on that day at lunch I find that there is also a dance that night and i wanted to go to that as well. I had never missed a MASE dance because they are very fun and I knew that i was bound to have a great time there.
I was then faced with a dilemma, i did not know what to do. I had three choices; Go to the party and help out with the kids with some friends, go to the corn maze that I had never been to, or come to the MASE dance that night.

I started looking at my options, I knew that there wouldnt be a lot going on at the party and I wasnt going to have much fun because all of the kids were all under ten-years-old. I also knew that if i didnt go to the corn maze there wouldnt be another untill next year, MASE has a dance almost every month so i knew that if i missed that I could just catch the next one.

I racked my brain, trying to figure out some way i could make it to each event or which one that i wouldnt mind not going to. I finally decided that i just wouldnt go to the party, but i had made a promise. I decided to just go to the party. I turns out that the party ended just before 8 O'clock i had missed the corn maze but, i was still able to attend the dance. I had a lot of fun at the dance and t he kids party wasnt so bad either. I guess i made the right choice.
