Dreams (chain writing)

          Tom was a normal chicken living a normal life. One day, he looked up the sky and thought, 'I wish I could fly....' He knew he could not fly because he was not a bird. He thought, 'I have wings, but I just can not fly!' as his anger came to him. One day, a worm name Jerry, was squirming down the big, gigantic hill.  Tom asked him, "What in the world are you doing??" Jerry replied," I am going to that forest over there at the end of the hill. "What??? YOU are going to the end of the hill with THAT SPEED??? Impossible! Hahahahahaha!" Tom laughed  so hard that his stomach hurts. Jerry said, "No matter what you say, I am going there."   For days and days he tried so hard to achieve his goals. Tom was very touched because of his efforts. After days and days, a voice shouted, "Hey I am here!! I told you I could make it!!!" Tom knew it was Jerry for sure.


         The next day, he determined that HE is going to achieve his goals. He tried to fly. He went to the top of the mountain and jumped . He swung his wings as hard as he could. "Ouch!" But, no luck for him-he could not fly. Tom was hurt but worked very hard to fly-just like Jerry did. He knew that chicken could not fly. It was a simple fact. However, a worm going to the end of the big hill seemed impossible but it was not for Jerry. So, he thought that it could seem possible for him too. He checked out books about flying, lift, birds and many. He made a sketch about how his wings should work when he is flying. He watched the birds fly. He watched it everyday, every second.




          After months of his great efforts...., Jerry heard a voice in the sky, "Look!!! I am up, up in the sky flying!!!I have achieved my goal!!!! Woo-Hoo!!!" Jerry knew it was Tom for sure and it was.

I am sure that you are hurt a lot. Because of you, my apperance became more neat. I would like to have you to be my best friend because you are always with me and help me a lot. if I did not have you, people would call me lion head wich I hate baing called.

Reflective essay on the video, Spring

           The little monk was playing in the river. He caught a fish with his hands, then tied a string around its body. The other end of the string was tied to a rock. he did the same thing to the frog and snake. Adult saw all of what the child did to animals. At night, adult tied a rope around his waist with a big rock.  In the morning, adult told the little monk to set the animals free. He told he will untie the rope. However, the fish and the snake were dead(not the frog), and the child cried.


             After I watched the video, it reminded me the time that I was in second grade. I did not hang out with  this new girl she was a little  bit weird and bit strange. I kind of made her get left out. i knew that those actions were cruel, but everybody else did not like her either. After 2 years,(I was in America)  she transferred to the new school. I thought that is because of me. I treated her bad too. I regretted felt bad for myself. I wish that I could go back in time and say sorry to her and be friends. I was depressed when I heard that she transferred to a new school. The other experience is when I was in first grade. I went out on a picnic with my family. I was playing with ants because I had nothing else to do. I covered up the ants' house with branches and soil.Right after that, ants came rushing with their food and trying to fine the entrance to go inside. I felt bad when I saw these ants because it was really important place to them and I blocked the entrance. I tried to dig it up again but it became worse. I ran back crying . I was in first grade so I was pretty emotional back then. I felt sorry and thought I was a terrible person. I regretted a lot. These are some experience that relates to the video, spring.




            In conclusion, after I saw this video called Spring, it reminded me of when I was in second grade, the time that I treated this girl badly.  Also the time that I was in first grade, the time that I destroyed ants' house. I learned that you will receive same act of emotion that you did it to someone, treat someone like yourself. It really taught me the real meaning and how important that lesson is. I think that lesson really helps me with our lives. Therefore, the video, Spring taught me great lessons.

KONY 2012

                Should we make JOSEPH KONY famous for what he has done? Kony is a criminal in Uanda .Kony kidnepped young chldren and forced them to do  something bad like killing thier parents, becoming slaves. Kony has been doing this for 20years. nobady knows about Kny even though he was on the first place of the criminal reservation. We need the whole world to know about Kony. Kony 2012 video lets people kmow about Kony. Millions of people watched it already. Jason Russel, the one who made the video nad wants Kony to be famous. Let's be in the same team as him. Nobody really knows about Knoy, that is why children who are getting totured are invisible, people needs to know about Kony.
Here is the video Kony2012.......















         First of all, if we make Kony famous, people will donate more to help the problem. If more people know about him, more donations and less problems. People will think that Kony needs to stopped and to stop him, they should help the Kony 2012 group. They will donate a lot. People can stop Kony. Knoy cuts off teenager's ears, noses and lips. Gilrls became sex slaves. They were forced to marry some of the soldiers and had babies. How can Kony not be famous??? He did such a horrible things to the children. People can donate money and they can stop Kony. it is not hard to donate money. You just have to donate a little amount of money to arrest Kony. Is that little amount of money so infinitive? If kony gets famous, more people know about him and more people are going to donate. If they donate money, they can arrest Kony very easy.  People will realize that how Kony is really famous for what he has done. They will realize that Kony needs to be stopped and to stop him, all they need is their donation. So, it is better if Kony gets famous.




       Next, other governments will help more. When Kony gets famous, all of the people will talk about him and everybdy will be chattering about kony. Then, government will notice that Kony is really cruel and needs to be arrested right now. Then, governments all around the world will help arrest Kony. Realizing how big Kony's cruelty will help Kony to get arrested. if people all around the world talk about Kony, government all around the world will participate in aressting Kony.  If more governments help, more power, more soldiers, and more better technology.  If there is more soldiers and more power, there is greater chance to win. There is greater chance to arrest Kony. If governments all around the world teams up, it is 99.9% to win and arrest Kony. Making Kony famous, is a shortcut for arresting Joseph Kony, the cruel criminal.  Therefore, Kony should be famous.




       Finally,  Kony can be arrested fast. If everbody knew about Kony, people will be participating, donating a lot. For example, let's say that if there was Joseph Kony walking right outside of your house. If he was famous, everybody would get out of their house trying to get him or call the police. Then, he would be arrested in no time. If he was not famous, people would not care and let him go. They would let go of the chance. If Kony was hiding, and everybody knew him, he would be found very quickly. People would be just looking and then, they would see Kony hiding. There will be millions of people's eyes watching Joseph Kony. He would have no place to hide. People's little action can arrest a crimial like Joseph Kony. Without people's help, police, CSI, FBI, etc would have a hard time searching for Joseph Kony. If  Kony is famous, he will be arrested in no time.




     In conclusion, Joseph Kony should be arrested because more donations, more percentage of arresting Kony, and  a lot of people will know. Joeseph Kony has been doing a lot of horrilble things to the young children for 20years. he needs to be stopped or every young people will be suffering. They need to get hope for their life. They are young children. It is the time when you need hope, love, kindness. Kony is taking all of that away from them. We need to make Kony famous to get him arrested. Thus, Kony should be famous.

I kept reading the Roald Dahl books untill I was in the fourth grade. I went to the library and borrowed all of the Roald Dahl books series that I have not read yet. I really like the book 'Matilda' because I love her personality and how she uses her brain and knowledge to solve her problems. I really like the part when she discoveres her power which was she can move anything she wants with her mind.  I really have a  lot of respect for Roald Dahl because he can make great books. Roald dahl is my favorite aruther and it always have and it always will be. I just love reading his books. It really entertained me.
                 Lastly, I really like to play dodgeball. Dodgeball is my favorite sports. I started to play it when I was in the first grade. I was really bad at it back then but not until when I went to America. I was in America, and I played so much dodgeball with my friend. That really helped my skills to get better and get more improve. I really like it a lot because it is very fun and I can exercise at the same time. When I am playing dodgeball, my mind gets all concentrated and I feel like I am getting all healthy. I like to play dodgeball with my  friend. I really love playing dodgeball and it is my favorite sports!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
