Me, Myself, and I,

Me, well I am a pretty plain person. I don't consider myself beautiful or anything, but I also don't think I am ugly. I don't get mad or offended easily. I am really protective when it comes to my family. I love to be with my Friends and family. I love children. When I am in a difficult situation I usually pray or talk to my mom. I guess you could describe me as easy going, funny, someone to talk to and who will listen, someone you can depend on, someone who won't laugh at you when you are down, someone who will stand with you through the thick and thin. Well at least for my best friends. If I don't know you than you are probably out of luck. That best describes me.

The the class is reading,

I think my least favorite part would have to be when Rowdy beat Jr. up because he he decided to go to the white school, and on Halloween when he got beat up and he thought it was Rowdy.
I hate those parts because Rowdy was his best friend and all because he went to a white school Rowdy got mad and beat him up. I would probably be mad if my best friend did that to me, but I would not beat them up.I also hate the part where he thought Rowdy beat him up on Halloween because that means Rowdy is holding a grudge because he is still beating Jr. up, and I think even though he lost his best friend he should let it go.

My plans for the future!

My plans for the future are to get out of this class and get my GED. When I get out of school I want to go to college to be a Ultra sound tech. When I am out of school I want to find a job in the Salem Hospital and work full time there. When the time comes for me to get married I only will want to work part time until I have kids. Then I will be a stay at home mom. If the hospital needs me to stay on then I will only work twice a week. That is my goal and I hope to achieve it.

My Favorite Holiday

My favorite holiday would have to be Thanksgiving. Not just because it passed, but because it is a time when families and friends can get together and have fun. I love Thanksgiving also because of the awesome Thanksgiving sales. The day after Thanksgiving we always go shopping. It is fun because ,some not all but some, people are still in a pretty good mood. That would have to be the reason I like Thanksgiving the most.

What I am Thankful For

I am thankful for a lot of things. I am thankful for my parents, they are the best. I am thankful for my friends who care about me, I am thankful for my church, I am thankful for a place to live that I am not out on the streets, I am thankful for a car to drive so I don't have to walk, I am thankful for my siblings who hopefully love me as much as I do them, I am thankful for money to be able to buy things we need, I am thankful for telephones so we can make phone calls, I am thankful for Becka who will take time everyday and put up with us. Last but not least, I am thankful for Thanksgiving, a time where families can come together and be thankful.

My Thanksgiving Week

Well I am planning on coming here on Monday night for open house. On Tuesday I have to work then go to church. On Wensday I am helping my mom get ready for Thanksgiving Day. On Thursday me and my mom are probaly going to our friends house. Thanksgiving day over there is fun because they have a nintendo and the guys always play football and get all wild. We all play games together,and then we get the ping-pong table out and play that for like two hours. After that we all have desert and talk about things that we remember doing whenwe were younger, and then a whole bunch more people come over for more dessert and for more food. After that we usually go home and go over to our friends house for leftovers.

About the book were reading

Well Rowdy stays at home on the rez beating people up most of the time for no apparent reason, while Junior is going off to the white people school and doing something with his life. Rowdy feels like there is no hope for him, and because of his dad always beating him he feels like that is what he should do. Junior on the other hand feels like he can do something with his life before it is too late.

sentance combining

Junior is a Spokane Indian, and he lives on the reservation.
At Reardon High school Junior is one of the smartest kids, but Gordy is smarter.
Junior has a hard time getting to school, and sometimes he has to walk 22 miles.

About the book I'm reading

Well I think it means it is a true story of an Indian that is at one time lived on the reservation, but now goes to the white people school.I think the author wrote it because it was about him. He was trying to say through the title that he was an Indian on the rez, but at school he was a different person.He went to the white people school because he wanted to be something. He did not want to live on the rez and be a nobody, he wanted to go somewhere to have a little bit of hope.

Technology

Well I really am not in to all that kind of stuff. I like music but I could do without, I don't watch T.V., I am always losing my cellphone, and computers, HA, I barely know how to use them. So you could say living without technology really would not bother me. For some people it is like they can't live without it, but me, who gives a monkeys rump.

About The Book I'm reading!

My first impression would be controlling. I think that they like to have all of them to be together. I don't think they like it that junior went to a different school because he was leaving the reservation. I don't think I would like living on the reservation because they like are very mean to the ones who are weird like junior. They treat them as if they don't matter, and I would hate living in a place that no one cared if they hurt your feelings or not.

Moving Away From My Home!

I have never had to, but if I did I would hate it. One reason is because, hello, that is like the place I lived my whole life. I think I would probably be scared because I would have to start doing thinks a whole new way. I would have to face a new house, with a new room, people with new faces. I think I would be too scared do even do anything. These are the reasons why I would never want to move away.

Junior

He is very ugly, and I would never take a second glance at him. He acts as if he wanted the whole world to revole around him,but really I know he just wanted the people on the reservation to notice him. Junior also does not have a lot of self confidence. His personality is funny, And he has a good sense humor.

Our New Book!!!!

I think it is cool. The author has a good sense of humor,and even though he went through a lot he can make a joke about it instead of trying to make everyone feel sorry for him. I also think it is cool the way he draws cartoon characters.

Overcoming Things.

One of my biggest trialsI have had to overcome was losing my aunt, and my dad getting custody of my brother and sister all in the span of two years. How I got through it may not make sense to you, but it was through prayer. Every time I am going through something I turn to God. Other people turn to drugs and alcohol, but the only way I can get through it is through prayer.

My Life Story

Well there is a lot I can say. When I was three years old I got in church. My dad never liked it so he divorced my mom. My mom had custody of my brother, sister, and I. Even though she did we still had to go to my dads house every other weekend and every other two weeks in the summer. It was hard having to homes. Not only that but my mom and dad argued all the time. My dad had a daughter before he met my mom but she was never really in the picture. Then he got re-married after he left my mom and had another son with her. Thank God he is still with her.

Three in a half years ago my dad decided to make life miserable for my whole family. He fought for custody and in the middle of that he ruined my life.He lied on my mom and they gave him emergency custody. He refused to even let us talk to our mom and when she came to get us he told us to go in the room and not come out. Now don't get me wrong he didn't abuse us. He was just a liar and a control freak. My mom had to have the cops physically get us out. So the day came for us to finally go home and my two older siblings said they were going to the store and all along my dad helped them plan to run away. It was the hardest year of my life. Eventually my dad got custody of my brother and sister, but something to rub in his face, he didn't get me.

Formal Letter

Dear Rebekah,
The things I want to improve on in this class are my reading skills. I also want to improve my writing skills, and my ability to understand things I have never been able to understand before. I would have to say that this class has helped me do all those things, but I also feel like I can improve some more, and I know that if I apply myself good enough I will have all those things done in no time.




Sincerly,
Jessica Ogden

My Boss!!!

My boss is the best. I think so highly of her because 1. we go to church together, 2. she is fun, caring, kind, giving. One of the thinks my boss is not is selfish, she is not stingy with her money or time. I love it that she is in my life. I have the best job in the world, even though I get minimum wage and part time hours, I still have the best job, and the best boss.

The Portrait!!!

This poem is about a mother who is angry about her husband killing himself and leaving her pregnant.When the baby was born she still had a lot of anger .She has so much bitterness and hate she does not even want to see his picture and when the child brings the picture down from the attic she slaps the child . I think the author wrote it to tell people she still remembered it and if anyone is going through something like that they can get through it. I like this poem because it has a lot of meaning and it is well written.

First Poem!!!!!!!!!

School is so cool,
Like swimming in a pool,
I love the way my brain is a tool,
But sometimes I feel like the biggest fool.

My Weekend!!!!!!!!

T weekend I am going with my youth group to one of the scariest haunted houses in OR, and it is going to be so much fun. It is called thirteen doors and it is in Portland, and it is in the basement and you have to go through all these doors and each door is different and they freak you out pretty bad. It is going to be great.his

My favorite Song

I think it would be "Just A Dream" by Carrie Underwood. The song is about a girl who just turned 18 and is engaged to a guy in the military, and on the day of her wedding on her way to the church she finds out he died,and so the song is about her wanting it to be just a dream because she is so sad she does not want to believe it.It is my favorite because it is one I can kind of relate to, not that I have a boyfriend in the military, but my uncle is in the Navy and my cousins fiance is in the Navy. That is why I like that song.

Why People write Poetry

Well people write it because for some people I hear it helps relax them. For some people it is just a hobby, but really I can't tell you why people write poetry except that that is what they like to do. I would never be able to do it because I do not have a way with words, but there are some people who when they write that is all that they write. I think that is weird, but that is my opinion.

My Job!!!!!

My job is not the most important in the world ,but it is fun. I work with a bunch of kids. They are all very wild. My job consists of cleaning, and constantly saying "NO GET DOWN ", or "Your going to break that", But then I get feedback like," YOU ARE NOT MY MOM", or "Nina a.k.a Christina lets me. Yeah that's what my Job is, But I am not complaining just saying how crazy working at a day care is.

The Place I Never Want To go again!!!!!!!

It would probably be my dads house, not that he is evil or anything but every time I went to visit him he always tried to get me to live with him and he always lied on my mom and it made me mad. Another reason why I don't ever want to go there again is he always tried to control me, by saying your church is brain washing you so come live with me, or he would try and tell me my mom did not love me so really by doing that he caused me to never want to go over there again.

The Place I Feel Most at Home!

I think I would consider my church to be most like home to me because I am there all the time and that is where I would rather be all the time. I feel peaceful when I go there. I feel all my problems vanish when I go there. I know that this may sound crazy, but that is just how I feel. That is the only place outside of my real home that gives me such a peaceful feeling.

My September 11th Expericence

I remember waking up that fateful day 8 years ago to my mom saying "oh my goodness " over and over. Me and my brother and sister ran out there so scared and my mom was listening to the radio. It looked like she was going to cry and she said that the World Trade Centers have just been hit.I had no idea what they were. It was not until I found out the importance of what those buildings were that I understood why people were so sad. Than I was sad to think of all those families who lost dads, moms, brothers ,and sisters and I still had mine. I still to this day think of those families and at what could have been if those terrorists would not have done what they did.
THE END!

Anywhere In The World!!!!!!!

If I could go anywhere in the world it would be England. I think it would be cool because England has a lot of castles and their accent sound cool. I think going to all the castles and seeing all the sights would we a good learning experience. I would love to go and be able to see the King and Queen of England. Just to be able to walk in the castle would be great. If I were to go to England and be able to walk and talk with the princess I would probably think it was a dream. Those are the reasons I would love to go to England.

My Ideal Day!!!!

My ideal day would probably be walking somewhere with the leaves falling. I would go on a walk with my friends and we would go have ice cream and then we would go to my best friends house and stay up until the crack of dawn then go to bed Then we would get up and go to school.

Most Embarrasing Moment

I think it would have to be when I was in middle school about 4th grade and I was walking out of the bathroom and there was a really cute boy and so I was trying to act all that, when my friend came up to me and said "You have toilet paper hanging out your skirt ." I was so embarrassed I almost started crying. Later my friend told me that like everyone saw . I was horrified , but I soon got over it.

Fall Season

My favorite things I would say are the colors, all the leaves, and most of all the cold weather.I like everything about fall. I like it because I can wear clothes that match the colors, and also my B-day is the first day of fall. That always makes it special. I also like it because everybody seems so nice. I love walking out and feeling a soft cool breeze and also because this may sound funny but I love the fall sales at the mall. I like it because it does not get bright until like 7 am and it is real nice. Those are the reasons I like fall so much!
