Ideas    

        When I saw that I had to write a independent blog post about anything every week, I was like, "how am I gonna write about something different every week?" Then I remembered that I could write about anything, anything in the whole wide world. So today, I am going to write about how I never have any good ideas. Whenever I am in a group working on a group project, I am usually the one who just gets told what to do and I just go off and do it. I never actually have any good ideas, I never have any ideas that I am willing to present to my group. I think its because when I was younger, we did a lot of group projects. I would always be in the group that would deny my ideas. I would always try to present to my group an idea, that in my head was pretty good, and they would just shut me down. I think that after my experience of getting denied everytime, I just gave up. I think that this year I am going to tell my group that I want to insert myself in the discussion and I want to have some ideas that they will like. I want a second chance. There is something els that I would like to talk about. I literaly never thought that I would be able to write this. I am just writing a I go and now, I know what FItz means when he says write from the heart. He doesn't mean write about something true to you, mhe means write randomly and write freely.

    Lord Of The Flies Literary Paragraph #1    

        You can’t get far into a book if you don’t read it that much. The Lord Of The Flies kept me awake at night wanting to read more and discover what was going to happen next. Reading The Lord Of The Flies forced me to stay awake late at night and read in a more engaging way than I have ever read before. All of the action that was happening forced me to really pay attention to what was happening so that I didn’t miss an important detail. When I started The Lord Of The Flies, I was just trying to get the one-hundred points required, but when I got deep into the book; I knew that I was going to love it. I got deep into the book and just couldn’t put it down. I was probably reading for about thirty minutes in my bed every night. I could never get far into a book before; I never had enough focus; but now, I have  gotten sucked into one of the best books of all time. Reading The Lord Of The Flies was definitely worth it. The book itself was fairly hard to read because of all of the action that was happening but when you finish, you will realize that you just read the best book of all time.

Reading Experience For Lord Of The Flies        

        Last week I wrote a blog post about the book. I did two things wrong with that. I wasn't supposed to write a blog post and I was supposed to write about my expeirence reading. Today, I will do it write. When I read, I really can get in the moment. I really like books that suck me into the book so I don't want to stop reading. That is what The Lord Of The Flies has done for me. I get sucked into the book so much that my dad is yelling for me to go to bed. I turn of my light, then when he gets back to his bedroom, I turn it back on so I can keep reading. I love reading when there is a litle noise in the disstance. When there is noise, I can really try hard to focuse on the book and not other things. But when it is completely silent, I always drift of to to think about other topics. I ususally read in my bed at night or during the day but still in my bed. Sometimes I read jst to get it out of the way but I usually am looking forward to it. Some of the distant noises that I like to hear while I am reading, is a plane going over my house, a dog barking in the street, a car driving by, or even my dad accidentally dropping pots and pans to the ground.

Reflecting On My Life At Fenn

Silieness - Lack of common sense of judgment;foolishness

        In the fourth fourth grade, Mr. Smith was my advisor and social studies teacher. Halfway through the year, I realized that I wanted to be like Smitty when I grow up. I wanted to be the adult that developes such a good relationship with kids that they would feel so comferatble around me. I wanted to be the adult that would let kids into my room and to talk about there problems. I wanted to be the person that kids would want to come to talk to me. When I was in the fourth grade, thats how I saw Smitty. In fact, I developed such a good relationship with him, that I felt to comfertable with him. I was the silly kid in social studies. I felt so comfertable with him in class, that I thought I could do whatever I wanted. I thought that I could be the most distracting kid in class and I would just get away with it. And that was kind of the case. Sometimes I would do stupid things in class and I would get a recess recall.

        The next year wasn't much different. My advisor and english teacher was Mr. Bird. Mr. Bird and I established a strong student teacher relationship and it was the same as the year before. Now I am in the eighth grade and still nothing has changed. Fitz is the same as all of the other teachers. (thats not bad). And now as I am writing this blog post, I am reflecting on all of the stupid things I have done in my life. I am reflecting on all of the things I did just to get some attention. All of the things I did, just to have a stronger relationship with my peers. And now that that has happened, its hard to stop. Its hard to think, that I could be that lonely fourth grader without any friends that I was in the fourth grade. But now that I think about it, I am affecting the whole class not just myself. I am disturbing the class when we are learning something. I am also effecting myself in a bad way also. I am so focused on getting attention that I am not paying attention in class. And now, I have finally realized that I need to stop. For both myslef and my peers sake.
