Journals- 9/20/07 - 9/27/07

9/20/07- Continuing with the food theme: Which fast-food franchise should open in Keyser? Which one would you get rid of?
I think we should bring Taco Bell to Keyser. I love their food so much and I would be so happy. I think we should get rid of KFC because it is gross and greasy. Everything taste like fish now and the fish now and the fries are so greasy they drip.

9/21/07- Continuing with the food theme: Have you ever eaten octopus? Would you?
No I have never eaten octopus. I don't think I would ever eat it unless I was given money . I don't think I could stand the little suction cups. It seems like it would be rubbery.

9/24/07- Are you (or were you) nervous to get your driver's license?
I'm not really that nervous. I have driven with alot of different people so I don't really get nervous when I drive with other people. I have also driven many different cars.

9/25/07- Is punishing the entire class for the transgressions of a few fair? Is it effective?
I don't think punishing everyone is fair. The people that caused the transgression should be the only ones to get in trouble. Sure it might be effecitive to punish everyone, but it's not fair to everyone else.

9/26/07- Video games: Which one has frittered the most of your life away? (Not your favorite, necessarily, just the one you've played the most.)
I've played The Sims the longest out of every game I have ever played. I could sit there for hours and not even know it. It is fun making the little people do things you would never do in real life.

9/27/07- Video games: Which one is the most fun to watch others play?
I think any of the Need For Speed games are the funnest to watch others play. I like to watch the different skills the people can use while driving the car. I also like to watch them customize thier car.

Journals 9/10-9/19

D.O.L

9/10- Plant those Japanese iris bulbs next to the daffadils, Pam, if you want an attractive display next spring.

9/11- Terry doesn't run very well, but he always enters Run For Your Life, a five-mile race held on Labor Day.

9/12- Neither of my parents is able to take me to the Village Theater to see Oscar to see Oscar Wilde's play The Importance of Being Earnest.

9/13- Adriana, please set those books of shakespear's plays on this stand; we'll be using them later in class.

9/14- Shawn said that neither of the singers was professionally trained, but their rendition of "Maria" was stunning.

9/17- Neither my friend nor my sister has the time to address these envelopes; maybe someone else can help.

9/18- Rob told us that the picture has not been hung properly, and it will have to be taken down and done correctly.

9/19- Keiko and I have to order these items: two dozen pizzas, three cases of juice, and, I suppose, enough placemats for everyone attending the festival.

Journal

9/10- Comment on the Salty hamberger story.
I think that it's stupid all together. I don't think it would be the workers fault because she just listened to the manager and kept cooking them. If anyone should be arrested it should be the manager.

9/11- Do you think 9/11 happened as reported, or was/is there a sinster conspiracy/coverup?
I think 9/11 happened as reported because there were to many people there in real life to cover anything up. I think America was in to much of a panic to think to cover anything up. I think it was just an awful thing that happened to alot of good people.

9/12- Would you concider Britney Spears fat?
No I would never consider Britney fat! She looks normal now and not like she has an eating disorder like most Americans like to see with celebrities. She has had two kids and still has an awsome body! No way would I ever see her as fat.

9/13- Do you prefer this years "enrichment" block to last year's study hall/tutoring?
I liked last years study hall because we had time to relax after lunch. This year we have to go right back to classes and work. The only thing I like about the enrichment is I can usually get my homework done.

9/14- "Cheaters never prosper" True statement?
I think in most conditions it is true. If you cheat on your tests and then when your final comes you won't know anything. If you cheat at a football game though you will win and its just another victory under your belt. It's still not right though.

9/17- It is better for your location (house, classroom, etc.) to be too cold or too hot?
I love hot weather. I would rather be too hot then too cold. I hate waking up and it being freezing cold. It makes me just want to lay in my bed under the covers all day.

9/18- Invent a new candy bar. Describe its composition and name it.
I would invent a candy bar that you would have to keep frozen. It would have black raspberry icecream in it. The outer layer would just be chocolate. I would name it Black Raspberry Dream.

9/19- Continuing with the food themes, which McDonalds item should be permanently removed from the menu?
I think that the Big Mac should be taken off the menu because they are big and they seem like they would be really bad for you. Also I think that Fries should be taken off because they are a heart attack waiting to happen. They should also take off Chiken Selects because they are greasy and they should be grilled.

Journals 9/4-9/7

D.O.L

9/4- "Sally, who did you see at Fox's Pizza last night?" Megan asked after algebra class.

9/5- By the time the Fourth of July parade ended, the light drizzle became a downpour, and few people remained on Main Street.

9/6- In my opinion, Twelve Angry Men is the more powerful play of the two I read last week in Enlish class.

9/7- Tane lent me a copy of Computer Facts, the magazine that published the article "Computer Graphics."


Journals

9/4-In honor (sort of) of the holiday whats the worst kind of labor?

I think the worst kind of labor is where you have to work long hard hours. I think working at some kind of factory would be the worst! You would get treated bad, have to work really hard, and work really bad hours. I would never want to work at a factory!

9/5- Should Michael Vick ever be allowed to return to the NFL?

He may be good and I would understand if it was one mistake but he has made multiple mistakes. I don't think he should ever be allowed back to the NFL. I think anyone who is mean to animals should go to jail.

9/6- Which city/landmark in the "mainland" U.S. would you most want to visit? Explain.

I would want to go to L.A. I think it would be great to go and see how fast pace it is there compared to our slow life style here. And I would also want to shop!

9/7- Two weeks in: grade the new principals. (Twigg and Saterday)

I haven't met Mrs. Twigg yet so I can't really grade her. My first impression of just seeing her was that she could probably be mean if she had to. Mr. Saterday is pretty cool though. He seems pretty nice so i give him an A.
