Free Post Disney World Parks

        As we all know Disney World has four different parks. They have the Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and Epcot. My favorite park is magic Kingdom because of the rides. It has Thunder Mountain which is my most favorite in all of Disney. Magic Kingdom also has space mountain which is really cool too. The park I really don't like is Epcot. The only thing that I like in it is Soren.
       My second favorite park has got to be Animal Kingdom. It is really cool because it is like a zoo with rides everywhere. I favorite ride in Animal Kingdom is Mount Everest. I love that ride because it goes backwards. I also like a water ride which is in that park. Third overall is Hollywood studios. I mainly like Hollywood Studios because of the Rock n roller coaster. If you ever get the chance to go disney world I highly suggest it.

Reading Response

       So far in The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, the main character junior gives the reader background about his life. He is a poor Indian who has no hope in life. I thought that it was really cool how even though junior through a book at the teacher he still tried to help him. Now junior is going to an all white school. Also, Junior's best friend is a guy who beats people up and gets beat by his dad. 
        Junior things thinks now since he is going to an all white school that he will be judged. He thinks that people will think that he crazy or think that he really brave. I think that it is very brave of him to do this. Not to mention he left his best friend who beats everyone up for him. This book so far has been very interesting. I can not wait to here what will happen next with the school situation.

Howard Carter

         My project is on the man who discovered King Tut's tomb and many others. His name is Howard Carter. The only reason that King Tut is so famous is because he discovered him in the twentieth century. Howard Carter even has his own museum named after him. Before he was an archeologist he was an artist. He also worked for the Egyptian Government.
         Howard Carters most famous discovery is King Tut. He found the tomb in the valley of the kings. When they found the tomb it took ten years to completely search it. In the tomb he obviously found mummy and many gold statues and other valuables. Overall, I think that Howard Carter is the most successful archeologist in the twentieth century.

refection on 1st semester

       In the first semester this year I realized that I was not as prepared for exams as I thought I was. My exams grades were going to be better than what I got. I also learned that some classes are easier to prepare for than others. My two hardest exams were Latin and Social Studies. I am bad at those because it is a memorizing class.
      For finals I am going to have to just take for time to review everything. I only studied like three days for each exam. Next time for Latin and social studies I will spend five to six days. The good thing about exams though is that they are stuff you have already learned. Overall, I am going to be more prepared for my next exams.

Research Update

       So far my research has gone pretty well. I have all the sources that I need, and I finished my annotations. The annotations were hard to do, because it took so much time to do. I liked how we had a few days to work on them though. I think that it is smart how both English and Science class are doing the project.
       A big help with the project is that both class periods are used for completed the work needed for the project. This would be like impossible to do without that. I am now starting the notecards and they are easier that the annotations. The thing is though we have to have 35 of them. Overall, the project is going well and will hopefully stay that way.

Free Post- LSU Basketball


          This year the LSU basketball team started the non-conference games very strong. Our recored ended up being nine and three. That sounds good, but it really wasn't that good because we beat really bad teams. Now SEC games have started and everything has gone downhill. We are one and four in SEC play. 
           The easier part of our SEC schedual was the beginning, which obviously didn't go that well. I don't the Tigers will be making the NCAA tournament this year. I even think that the head coach Johnny Jones will get fired after this year. Especially since we have not made the tournament in two years. Overall, this is a very tough year for the Tigers.
