Journal

My weekend was okay I just stayed at my boyfriends house. His mom had spinal surgery so I stayed their to help her with the dishes and anything else she needed help with. Friday I went to my grandma's to get some movies because me and my boyfriend were gonna have a movie night. But we ended up having to take his sister to her friends house and picked her up at around five. We did that for the rest of the weekend because his mom can't drive until her neck is better. So we drove my boyfriends sister around all weekend.

My Opinion

I think its pretty retarded that people try to solve their problems that way. It just causes trouble. People get hurt and the people who started it will go to jail.It causes too much drama for the family's because they might end up suing the people who did it.They could have talked it out instead of fighting with each other.

Journal/Body Image In The Media

I believe that body image shouldn't really matter as long as your happy with the way you look and how you feel about yourself. In the media i think its a lot harder for people to be happy with their body. They always have people judging them on their weight their either to skinny or to fat.
I think people shouldn't judge you weather your skinny or fat you should be whatever you want to be as long as your happy with the way you look.
The media has no say on how you should look. You have a choice to give into the pressure or to ignore what the media.

Book Report/Touching Spirit Bear

Touching Spirit Bear
By:Ben Mikaelsen
Cole got in trouble for beating up Peter and nearly killing him. So they sent Cole to Circle Justice to have them decide what they are going to do with him. He gets sent to an island for a year all by himself Edwin and Garvey came every once in a while to see how he was doing. But Cole ended up burning the shelter. He had to sleep on the ground the only thing he had was the special blanket they gave him. He ended up getting mauled by the Spirit Bear because he looked at Cole. Check Spelling
My opinion of the book is that its excellent because it's a good story for people who have an anger problem. It also might help them see that not everybody's out to get them. I think it's a good book for people who like these kind of story's. It kept me hooked I wanted to keep reading it. I would recommend this book to people who have anger problems or have trouble controlling theirselfs. I would recommend to those people because I think it would help them understand and help them in the process.

What You dont Know About Me?

I Love nature,animals and volunteer at The Willamette Humane Society. I walk dogs its pretty fun playing with all kinds of dogs. I can volunteer as much as want except for when their not open. I love it because you also get to play with the puppy's but you have to take them into a little room and you got to pick them up because their feet cant touch the ground just in case the other dogs are sick or something But they have bunny's sometimes birds,little gerbils,Rats,and cats.

"Anger is rooted in fear,Fear is Overcom by knowledge.
How does this saying apply to Cole and Peter's sitiation?
Well it relates to their situation because Cole beat up peter and now hes scared ta death of him andwont even go nearhim util he can proove to peter that hes good now.That he wont hert him because sending him to this island helped him and hes just trying to get peter to see that this island can help him as well. Cole is trying to tell Peter that this island will help him ta get over his fear if he just trys to trust him.

No I wouldn't want to see Cole again if I was peter unless they could prove to me somehow that he'd changed or if he became a better person. Because Ibelieve in giving second chances even if the person put my life at risk. I don't believe in that kind of stuff I believe that person can be forgiven to an extent. Well I would want Cole to be locked up some where were he couldn't heart anybody Else. But people can change if you give them a chance to.

Skit Paragraph/How To Resolve Ur Issue

First i would start by not trying ta get so irritated and saying mean words. Usually I'm just a quiet person when it comes ta getting mad. I just sit there until someone pushes me to far. But I shouldn't have thrown the book at her or threaten her ta tell mom. I should have just been chill about it and let it roll of me because when you ignore her she usually stops. Thats how I would have resolved the issue.

Skit Outline

I get mad at my sister for not bein quiet and for keep runin ger mouth like she always does. So I yell at her to please stop. I tryta be nice at first and ignore her until I exploded and start calling her all kinds of names like a B Word and more until my mom comes in and yells at both of us because my lil sister was antaginizing me.

Anger skit

In the video Ron got angry because the people on the phone weren't helping him. A better way that he could of handled is not yelling or slamming the phone because its not gonna get him any ware. He should have just talked calmly to the person on the phone and he would have got what he needed.

Journal About Cole

  • What do other people in the book think about Cole? Well most of the people in the book think hes a screw up except for Edwin and Garvey they see good in him. Their just trying to make him see that not everybody in the world is bad or mean. That he doesn't need to hurt people just for looking at him.
  • How does Cole feel about himself? He feels that he can change and not be mean to him or others. But its harder for him ta change because hes been that way for so long and hes not use to people being nice to him. He doesn't care if people believe him or not anymore.
  • What Do you think/feel about Cole? I think Cole needs some guidance to fallow the right path. So he wont be the mean and hateful kid he is. That's what Edwin and Garvey are their for. Because that was them once and if they can be helped so can Cole.

Correcting The Teacher

The one thing that I would keep If I had to give away everything I own it would be my books. Because they help me disappear into another world. I love to read and forget about all my problems for awhile. I like to curl up with my blanket and I like to turn on some music. I like to read for hours but if I can't have all the other stuff as least I would like to have some books to read.

What Oregon Means To Me?


Oregon is were I was born so its pretty awesome at times and it can suck at times. Just depend how you want it to be. I like it because all my friends and family are here and its fun and sometimes boring because the weather is so unpredictable. You don't know if its gonna be sunny, rainy, cold, or snowing. Sometimes it will be nice one minute and the next its raining.
But I love Oregon to some point because its so unpredictable. Its awesome not knowing what the weathers gonna be like or when its gonna change. The best part of Oregon is all the nice green scenery I guess that's why they call it the green state because of the unpredictable weather. I couldn't imagine really living anywhere else Oregon is my hometown and its where I'm gonna live for most of my life unless plans change.

A Time When I Got Angry?



The only time I really get angry is when people irritate me or just keep buging me. Like this one time with my little sister Kira wouldn't stop talking she just kept running on and on about retarded stuff. So i reached for a knife not thinking and i chased her up the stairs but she ran into the bathroom. I just went back downstairs and finished cooking dinner for my little brother thank goodness he was playing in his room at the time. My mom finally got of work and took me home so i wouldn't have to listen to my little sister anymore she just makes me snap sometimes.
Well I supose I could have just ignored her like i usualy try to do. I could have just put my headphones in so I couldn't here mhat she was saying or just go on doing what I was doing. I Usualy just hold my anger in so I don't get people mad at me or get yelled at by people. Im just a pretty layidback person I try to just keep to myself most of the time.

Journal

I would say he should have thought about his actions and what he was doing be for he even touched anybody. He should do community service working with special needs people till he understood his actions n learns that hearting people is wrong.

What I Did Over Winter Break?

I stayed at my boyfriends all winter break even for Christmas and new years. I didn't really do much but sit inside most of the time me and my boyfriend went and seen a couple movies Twilight, Bedtime Stories. They were pretty good but Bedtime Stories was more of a funny movie and Twilight was more of a serious tip of movie. On Christmas eve we all go ta open one present but my boyfriends mom picked them out got a shirt. On Christmas day we woke up at about 9:00am but we had to wait for my boyfriends sister ta get up to open them but she woke up a half an hour later.
We opened our presents i go ta Tinkerbell jacket and some new plugs. But we got snowed in so we couldn't go any were so we pretty much were stuck inside and we lost our power for about five hours. We took a skateboard with no wheels or trucks on it we sat on it and sled down the driveway and the big hills with it. The first time i did it my boyfriends sister amanda pushed me down the driveway . When i got to the bottom i fell on my side and we kept doing that for about an hour then we went inside because we were all wet and cold.
