The summer I turned pretty week 28

June13

Belly talks about how her heart was broken in that house one summer. Steven and Jeremiah “went on a fishing trip” with some friends so that left Conrad and Belly at home (Han 10). Belly always thought Conrad was super cute so she thought this was her chance that something might happen. She was in her room reading as conrad walked by and asked if she was doing anything tonight. He finally asked her to go to the boardwalk with him. She immediately said yes and got herself ready. When they got to the boardwalk, he treated her to a carmel covered apple. Belly let her arm hang loose just incase Conrad were to grab for it. Conrad led her to a game where there was a pretty blonde working there. She finally realized he did not want to come to the boardwalk with Belly but just to see this girl who worked there. After reading this, I am visualizing the worker as a tall, blonde, tan girl. She is wearing the shortest shorts you can find with a tight tanktop.

The summer I turned pretty week 27

June13

It’s finally summer and school is out. Belly, Steven and their mom are on the way to their beach house. Waiting for them are Conrad, Jeremiah and Susannah Beck. Belly’s mom and Susannah have been friends “since they were nine” years old (Han 4). Steven was letting his mom take a break from driving and let her sleep in the back. He took his sweet old time driving through the town to soak of all the old memories. They pull up to the house and Conrad and Jeremiah are waiting on the front porch for their car. They boys come running down the stairs to greet them. Conrad and Jeremiah looked at Belly is awe, not even recognizing her. They teased her saying she looked better with her glasses. I think this book is going to be about Belly and her family and family friends having a good adventurous summer together.

In my book Healthy life ,chapter three talks about an important subject which is why health is important. Simply health is important because without it health you will lose your life. being healthy is beyond important means you can live a life without suffering from any aches, pain, or discomfort. Health will lead to a happier and longer life ,and will keep looking younger even when your old .”A wise man should consider that health is the greatest of human blessings, and learn how by his own thought to derive benefit from his illnesses” Robert Urich. I connect this to myself because I care about being healthy more than anything ,so active and try my best to maintain my health.

In my book healthy life in chapter 1 , which talks about the meaning of health. The meaning of being healthy varies ,so some people might say that being healthy means that you exercise and eating right ,and others say that being healthy means you do not have any kind of illnesses. According to the book ,people can have their own definition of being healthy as long as they can reach that point of being healthy “a healthy outside starts inside” Robert Urich.

I predict if people cared enough to think about what being healthy really means to them , the world that we live in will change and show huge improvement in our lives because people knows that being healthy is important ,but unfortunately very few takes the time to  think about and achieve it

In my medical health class we started reading a new book called the Healthy Life , and the book shows specifically how can a person live healthy by developing healthy habits and overcome the unhealthy habits such as smocking , fast food ,and others habits that will decrease your health and put you in danger that might be dangerous enough to damage your health. This book is really great because it talks specifically about how to be health in from every aspect like how to eat , how to exercise ,and all the knowledge a person need to live a healthy “Health is worth everything”. I recommend this to everyone because this book contain a lot of knowledge that I know for sure that people that most people have no clue about. I connect this book to myself because I care about health and I would like to know everything there is about health.

Justice was served

June5

I want to talk about the incident that happened about a week or two ago. The young man a friend of mine and others by the name of Julian Dawkins was killed by an off duty cop in alexandria virginia on lynhaven. These past two weeks people have been standing out and making sure that justice will be served to the off duty cop. and last week on thurday they arrested the cop and charged him with murder. I am speaking on this because I am so happy that Justice has been served and that his family and friends will no longer have to worry about the guy who killed him. As a result to Dawkins murder his friends and family stood out where he was shot almost everyday until his funeral so that everybody knew that something needed to be done. I love how everyone had came together to make sure that this was something that the world could see.

The Washington Nationals have yet to get off to a hot start this season.  The Nationals are 28-29, below .500.  A record that is far from what they where at last year during this time.  Furthermore, the Nationals have faced many injuries this season, for example star player Bryce Haprer, and starting pitcher Ross Detwiler.  Even thought the Nationals are in second place in the NL East, they still have a lot of catching up to do.  If the Nationals really want to win the championship this year, they better put aside all the setbacks and make “their self-imposed pressure to live up to lofty expectations,”  (Davey Johnson).

I predict that Liberty And Ellis Island are both going to get new security. I believe that both of them are going to have top level security to any visitors who visit both islands. “But the NYPD and National Park service Have differences when it comes to ideas on how to protect visitors from terrorist attacks.” I predict that both islands will have their own personal ferries to transport visitors on and off the islands. In this article it says that they are going to be screening people at airports after visitors get on the plane. Most of all if your visiting one of these islands and dont fill safe, then they definitely will now with top flight security around.

This article talks and discuss a incident that occur on a cruise a ship to the Bahamas. From some of the evidence in this article , the fire could have occur because of the bad storm that was going on the night before. Passengers were being flowed back to Baltimore from Freeport. There were injuries from the incident, but they were minor injuries. The minor injuries that occured during the fire, included two people fainting, an ankle sprain, and a reported of high blood pressure. But most of “all  the passengers that were on the ship will receive refunds for this cruise and a certificate toward a future cruise with Royal Carribbean”.

Game of Thrones

June5

One day in the North, Ned Stark discovers 6 baby dire wolf pups.  He believes this to be a good sign seeing that he has 6 children, what he ignores is that the mother direwolf had been killed by a deer.  The sigil of the king’s house is a stag, and the Stark’s sigil is a dire wolf.  I believe that this is a sign that the king is going to betray the Starks and have them killed.  Later on we are shown two new characters: Tyrion Lannister, the king’s dwarf brother-in-law; and John Snow, Ned Stark’s illegitimate son, who does not share his family name because his “only family is the snow” (Martin.)  Even though Catelyn, Ned’s wife, hates John, almost all the rest of the family loves him and treats him like family.  Regardless, John Snow decides to join the Night’s Watch, an army made up of “criminals, bastards, and outcasts;” where those who join essentially are disowned from their families, must never marry, and must serve for life, as well as giving them clemency for all past crimes, which is why many criminals and outcasts join.
