Today I shall be talking to you about my day at Animal Kingdom. It was my first day at Disney in Florida so it took some time for all of the events to seep in. First we had a picture session in front of the humongous tree. Then we got fastpasses for Expedition Everest. After that we went to Africa where we went on a safari of the zoo where the literally the animal are let freely throughout that part of the park. It was amazing. Then we went to Expedition Everest in which you can read my experiance in Random Post #3. Then we went on some other more milder rides. This was the only day we went home early too. When we did go home we all changed as fast as we can into our swimming gear and literally jumped into the pool. The rest of the day for me is pretty much a mystery.

If there is one thing that Disney helped me understand is that roller coasters are not for me. I went on a roller coaster called Expedition Everest. It was an amazing roller coaster but when it took me through those sudden backdrops and turns, my tummy was turning. After the roller coaster I almost vomited too. In conclusion, certain roller coasters are not fit for me.

It was a nice spring day in the city of Pewaukee. I called up my friend Tyler to ask him about his trip to Jamaica.

“Hello”, said Tyler.

I replied, “Hey it’s Sri.”

“Hey.”

“How’s Jamaica man.”

“Pretty good.”

“Yeah I leaving tomorrow for Florida.”

“Sweet.”

“Did Aidan sit near your during your flight?”

“Actually Aidan was sitting right near me.”

“Really?”

“Yeah.”

“Sorry to hang up so abruptly, but my parents are calling.”

“See you later then.”

“See yeah.”

It was a nice summer day in the town of Pewaukee. David Collins was walking down the street remembering the days when he used to go to school here. Suddenly he was crowded by many other people. So he ran away with ease getting away from the strange people. On the way to McDonalds, David froze, checking his right pocket. Where was the money? He had lost $1,000. So he thought about who could take the money and the first thing that came to mind was the strange people who came close to him. He went to check them out. When David got there he asked them if they had taken the $1,000. The older women said to him to check his left pocket, and sure enough the money was there. After that small incident he asked them who they were. Soon after they replied they were from his favorite T.V. show “Survivor” and he asked them if he would like to be a contestant. David was in awe when they said the offer. He was about to accept it, but a strange feeling came to his mind. He remembered that Mr. Roehl his Middle School Teacher had been the one who showed him the show and he tried multiple times to get on but failed. Therefore with the kind of heart he has he kindly declined the offer and asked them to take Scott Roehl instead of him. They accepted the offer and David never saw the people from “Survivor” ever again.

"Am I dead?" was the first thing that I said when I got back my conscious. Suddenly a mysterious black objects appear in the background. I put on my glasses to get a better look at the people and where the heck am I. Quickly everything became clear. The mysterious dark figure that approach were my mom, my dad, my friend Aidan, ... Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Sri Kodali, and Tyler Stanczak! My brain after seeing the players got a blast from the past.

It was a nice summer day in New York, NY. I looked out the window an see a crowd near one entrance so I get dressed to see what is going on. All of a sudden I huge poster flies into my face and I realizes why practically everyone is here. It was a doubles match between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal vs. Sri Kodali and Tyler Stanczak. In fairly large print on the bottom of the paper was the main reason everyone was here because it was a raffle for two front row seats to the game. So I go to the counter to get my raffle ticket and the number was 041796.

A judge came up to a bright yellow podium to greet the audience, and after some five minutes about the greatness of the match he began the raffle. He said, "This raffle is like no other. You must have the birthday of one of the stars in the match in order to win. We did make sure only one person got it."

Someone right in front of the podium said, "I think I got it the birthday of Sri Kodali. " She went up to the stage gave the judge the ticket .

He replied, "Her number is ...4...17…96."

I realized that was my number the same so I said, "I have the same number!"

"Come up to the podium so I can check if you are right." replied the judge. I go to the judge with sweat seeping into my cap very fast. He check my number and said to the whole audience, "There seem to be a tie between these to people therefore to decide who is the winner they will do a simple game of Rock, Paper, Scissors."

"Oh my god..." goes most the crowd, "… that is such a simple game." I go into my position and put out my hand. So does the opponent who I still don't know is. I think in my head that most likely she will do rock, so I shall do paper. Well, that did not work out to well because I lost the first round. In the second round I won using scissors. The final round came and both of us were as nervous as a president giving his first speech to the public. I choose paper the one I never one with but I had a very strong gut feeling that I would win with it. We go down in unison to pick our choice and she picks … rock, which means I won!!! The crowd goes in a uproar, and the first thing I think of is that I should call Aidan to the exhibition match.


I called up Aidan and he replied in a weird voice, "Hellllllllllllo, Aidan
speaking."

I replied, "Yo this is Bailey."

"Hey Bails."

"Hey."

"Guess what."

"What?"

"I won a lottery to a best game in the world."

"Men's Hockey final in the Olympics."

"Even Better."

"What can beat that."

"Front row seat…"

"TO WHAT!"

"The 1-set exhibition match between Rodger Federer and Rafael Nadal, who
will our old best friends Srinand Kodali aka Slinnerd, and Tyler Stanczak
aka T-bone."

"You got to be kidding me."

"I am not. I bought a lottery ticket. Played rock, paper scissors against
this one girl."

"Who is this girl."

"The more I think about that might be that one girl who beat me in the
previous lottery for second row tickets for the game."

"You mean …"

"Yes, it is Leah."

"The one who you use to fight with in Honors Geometry in Middle School."

"Yep."

"Well I hope there are not behind us or else I am going to kill them."

"Now there Aidan don't go to far."

"Fine."

"I spill ice cold Coke on her."

"That is cruel plan old cruel."

"I know, I know."

"Well anyway come to my house immediately."

"See you in about one hour."

"Bye."

"See ye."





We go to our seat and sat down. Suddenly a person comes up to us a
congratulated us, since we won the lottery. The he went away. Two other
people came walking in and the first thing that come to my mind is Leah. She
silently came down the isle with her boyfriend Matt. We didn't speak to
them, and they didn't speak with us. The Arena was full in minutes. Then the
players came out. First Rodger Federer and Rafael Nadal. The crowd roared
for them. But, When Tyler and Sri came out the only was making most of the
noise was Aidan, Me, Leah, and Matt. Everyone stared at us but we are proud
to support our best friends. They start up warming up a bit and then the
true action starts.

Sri starts out to serve. He bounces it 5 times back and forth between his
legs. He tosses the ball up and goes into the back-scratcher. He waits for
the perfect moments and hits a hard slice. The ball zooms past Nadal for a
clean ace. This happened for a second time for another point. The score is
30-luv. Sri does the same ritual but it does not have enough speed and Nadal
hits it right at Tyler. Tyler steps in and hits a nice volley toward Roger,
but Rodger hits the ball as hard as he can for a Line Drive. The ball is
out. The score is set at 40-luv, and a sweat come down Rodger cheek he wipes
it out and get ready to return the serve. Sri does once again the same
ritual and hits a ace right on the T that goes at a whooping 150 mph. A
little less than the world record. The set stands 1-0. with Rodger up to
serve. The quickly get a drink. While I go and get some snacks. I slowly
come back down with two cokes, popcorn, and my favorite jalapeño nachos. I
slowly come down and just before a I get to my seat Matt trips me a I fall
face first onto the court. I went unconscious.

That was pretty much why I was in a hospital with Rafael Nadal, Roger
Federer, Tyler Stanczak, and Sri Kodali. The doctor comes up to me and tell
me what is wrong with me.

He said, "You broke your wrist, and both your legs during that dramatic
fall. Otherwise you are fine."

I said, "Thank god I am not dead."

Rodger came up to me I said, "All of us tennis player decide, that you and
you friend Aidan can sit on the court this time with us."

I replied, "Are you sure I am not dead."

"Yes I am."

I screamed my loudest "Fantastic I will get a wheelchair and watch the
match of my lifetime!"

THE END

Chapter 2 from The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

Imagine being a boy living in the 18th century. You given a job to whitewash a fence, so in order to have fun you perform the job slowing, waiting for the next dimwit to come up so you can manipulate him, In chapter two from the book The Adventure of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain shows the live of a boy who just loves to manipulate other people to do his job.

Even though it is some somewhat evil, Tom Sawyer is you average kid trying to get a job done in his own way. He tries to manipulate by trying to make them think that whitewashing is fun. For example on page 14 Tom says, “Like it? Well, I don’t see why I oughtn’t to like it. Does a boy get a chance to whitewash a fence every day?” Then and there Tom sucker punches his victim to do his job of whitewashing his fence. To do such a thing you really need to have a rotten brain which is exactly what Tom Sawyer has. Adding to that right at the beginning of the story when he starts to whitewash his fence he says his famous line, “[The fence was about] thirty yards broad, [and] nine feet high!” If any one were to paint a fence like that they would probably start at midnight and end at midnight, and Tom supposedly finish with his servant in about 8 hours flat. Therefore good ol’ Tom Sawyer is making a mountain out of a molehill.

While Tom is trying to convince many people that working is fun, one of the victims is Slave Jim. Slave Jim is a very innocent character in the book that is not like Tom at all. He likes to do his work to the full of his abilities, because he knows if he doesn’t do it adequately he will get a big spanking by Aunt Polly. The only reason he almost does some work is that he liked the bribe. Which is, “[A] white alley, … and it’s a bully tow.” This is supposed to be a high-quality marble. In the end Jim takes the marble from his hand and ran away teaching Tom a life lesson.

On the other hand Ben Rodger is your normal dimwit. He was easily caught under the grasp of Tom’s awful way of words. Tom had to use basic manipulation techniques to grab hold of the imbecile. If Ben would bulk up and realize what he was doing, he would have easily done the same thing to Tom as Jim did. On the contrary Ben is just plain old stupid. Come on, giving up a juicy apple to whitewash your average picket fence I mean come on man!

Most likely Tom won’t stop manipulating people to do his work, but Chapter two from the story The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, teaches you a very good lesson about manipulation. In conclusion, the moral for this story is that when given a job think like Jim not like Tom.

Day of the Butterfly

Imagine being the outcast of the school, the ugly duckling, because you have to be with your brother who is having some problems in school. Usually everyone would make fun of you but instead they don’t even care about you. In the short story "Day of the Butterfly" by Alice Munroe Myra Sayla is not your average outcast.


Myra Sayla is probably one of the most nicest characters you would ever read about. She is leaving her social life in order to take care of her little brother who is shy. There are probably a handful of people in our country who would do such a thing. Pretty much every single teenager living in the country now has some sort of social network which may include in person, online websites, and in-game chatting. Myra on the other hand leave all of this in order to help a brother who is little shy. Even if she takes the brother to play with the other girls on the playground the brother would be considered wimp not to play with the boys alone. Adding to that Myra can't be with the boys because everyone would think she is a tomboy. Therefore if the students in the school could be a little more friendly to Myra she might have been a better person in life.

Myra Sayla is basically an outcast because she has to take care of her younger brother, in the short story "Day of the Butterfly" by Alice Munroe. Think about a world without all these problems with boys and girls gone. Then, all of us might be living in a perfect social world.

Story of an Hour

Imagine being a woman in the 1800’s. Your parents would most likely say to you that when you grow up you must get married, have kids, and take care of the house. Suddenly your husband dies and the first thing that usually comes to mind is what will I do next? But this is not the case for Mrs. Mallard. In the short story “Story of an Hour” by Kate Chopin, the author creates a character who seems strange at first, but after some research that person makes perfect sense.

Mrs. Mallard has just heard the news of her husband’s death. To most women, their hearts would be inconsolable and their minds would probably not think properly, but Mrs. Mallard does not act this way. The first thing that comes to her mind is freedom. Now most people would think; man that is one strange person, but I fully understand her. Let’s imagine that two people are married in a rough relationship for a long time. Even though now you can divorce, if you divorce back then it would look odd. Everyone would think that you are a weird person and that you might just have married him/her for his/her money or other evil reasons. Therefore when Mrs. Mallard heard that her husband she almost instantly thought of freedom. Back in the 1800’s any women were in the same situation, but they would try to remarry someone else so they would not be the ugly duckling. In conclusion, this is the reason why Mrs. Mallard dies in the end of the story when she hears that her husband is alive.

The author Kate Chopin creates such a distinctive character in the short story “The Story of an Hour”, that without further research you might not be able to fully understand Mrs. Mallard. While being with a soul mate is great, you might just have endless possibilities if you don’t have one for a while.

The Battle on the Deserted island

On a deserted island, in the middle of Pacific, a battle rages on between Kosdarliitaria and the United States of America. Both sides were evenly matched, but the United States had the upper hand.

One day Kosdarliitaria was about to surrender when the president Sri said, “Unleash the secret weapon!!!” Suddenly out of the blue, there came out an immense unit measuring, 2.5 kosdars (25 miles) by 2.5 kosdars (25 miles). The United States troops were in awe, they have never saw such a massive artillery unit in their life.

Sri then said, “ATTACK!”

“Yes my master”, said the troops.

General Kod then said, “Unleash the droids from the robot making unit”. The massive unit unleashed 500 robot droids that started killing, every single person in their way. For every one minute that passed 5 soldiers had died. In was a tragic day full of death and hunger to kill the other country. After about four hours, the president of the United States got so upset that he calls for his secret weapon.

Even though the Americans were outnumbered 2000- 1025, they had 25 Jedi’s. The master Jedi, KODSR BAPEW of the planet Advil, had four light sabers and killed about 5 robot droids/ troops per minute. His Padawan, REARE LAKEN of the planet Xanax, was killing a very impressive 2 droids/ troops per minute. The robot droids/ troops had no chance against the experienced Jedis. The American whooped Kosdarliitaria troops, and after some about 5 hours of pure massacre both side retreated to camp.

On the final day of the battle the count totals were, 999 robot droid (one droid didn’t get fixed right), 900 super droids, 1 robot droid making unit, 750 kosdar troops, and 10 evil Jedi masters against 850 American troops, 50 Jedi masters and 750 clone troopers. They battle was fierce, and blood and robot parts was all over the place but in the end the United States Army had won the war and got the island that we know today has Hawaii. Even though the Americans were outnumbered they had the heart and the guts to win Hawaii. The battle of Kosdars was the most epic battle the world will ever know in the day years to come.

Art Analyze

According to the Merriam Webster Dictionary Art has many meaning including, “1 : skill acquired by experience, study, or observation 2 a : a branch of learning: (1) : one of the humanities (2) plural : LIBERAL ARTS b archaic : LEARNING, SCHOLARSHIP 3 : an occupation requiring knowledge or skill 4 a : the conscious use of skill and creative imagination especially in the production of aesthetic objects; also : works so produced b (1) : FINE ARTS (2) : one of the fine arts (3) : a graphic art 5 a archaic : a skillful plan b : the quality or state of being artful 6 : decorative or illustrative elements in printed matter”. Art should really be defined as one’s way to express there feelings. The art piece Red, Yellow, Blue II, 1965 by Ellsworth Kelly is a very simple piece when you look at it at first but then you realize how much struggle the artist went through.

For many people painting red, yellow, and blue on three identical pieces of canvas is easy, but painting them on three 82 x 189 in perfectly in really impressive. No matter how much you look you can’t find a painter’s flaw. All the marks I did found though were most probably caused by transit. Also you can’t see any marks of the paintbrush; it almost looks like a computer did it. Therefore the artist Ellsworth Kelly is a very impressive artist that knows how to paint a piece of art that looks like a computer did it.

After some thorough research using the World Wide Web, there was some information that each canvas was supposed to represent different sculptures. Each one combine with one another would create the colors of a rainbow. Also Ellsworth Kelly liked to reduce pictorial elements to simple shapes and fields of uninflected color. Therefore this piece of art was meant to confuse people who did not do thorough research.

Even though it may look simple, Ellsworth Kelly makes sure that the critics of the piece don’t have such an easy time critiquing the art piece Yellow, Blue II, 1965. In conclusion, the artist Ellsworth Kelly likes to make sure that the viewer get confused at first but impressed in the end.

School Electives

For many students electives are a way to expand their learning experience at Asa Clark. Some may also think of elective as a way to choose what their future jobs might be. This is why Asa Clark Middle School needs to add more electives for their students to choose.

With more electives, students will find out what they want to learn for college faster. If we have a Creative Writing class are future author can start early and finish strong. Then if we had a class to learn basic programming on the computer our future computer engineer will stand out. Also, it will help enhance the learning experience at Asa Clark Middle School. Many people might also send their kids who go to other school here, which will help gain more money for the school.

Some arguments against this phenomenal idea are that they’re not enough teachers and that it will cost too much. Public Schools already get enough money to hire more than enough teachers. Also many teachers have multiple free periods, which they can use to teach other classes of their preference.

If we add more elective to Asa Clark’s list it shall be more of a sophisticated school. Just as Uncle Sam would say “I want you to add more electives to the schools elective program.

Laptop Initiative

The laptop initiative in Asa Clark has so far been an outstanding program. It has helped many students with their learning experience. However, in order to help not only the students but the teachers in this program, the School needs to let the students take their laptops home.

Even though teachers in Asa Clark middle school think the students are scatterbrained, absent-minded, or neglectful, one teacher, Mr. Felsar thinks that taking the laptops home is a great idea. It would help his class because than he will almost go paperless in his class. Since all the schools in the district are trying to “go green” this is a perfect way to reduce paper. With the laptops all homework can be done on it. We would be saving 100 sheets of paper each day.
Taking the laptops home will help not only the teachers, but also the students. Even though they might have computers at home, the students might not have some programs used at school. One of the most commonly used applications in the school is OneNote. This program is unlike other Microsoft applications; you have to buy it separate. At my home we have the basic Microsoft office set. This include all the Microsoft programs we use in school except OneNote, the most used one. This is why we need our laptops at home.

Even though many teachers dislike the idea, the laptops of the 8th grade students in Asa Clark Middle School need to be able to be to be at 8th graders’ house in order to enhance the learning experience for the teachers and students of Asa Clark Middle School. Just as Uncle Sam would say I need you to let the Asa Clark Middle School students have their school laptops at home.

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time

Imagine a family with a dad, a mom and an autistic teenager. Usually the parents would have a better bonding in order to help the teenager. But in this story the mom and dad are not like two peas in a pod but like an untrained dog and cat living under the same roof. In the novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, the author, Mark Haddon, shows how three very different characters can be a wonderful family.

Christopher’s mom plays an important role in Christopher’s life during two periods, baby to toddler and young adult and onward. When Christopher was going through his early stages of his life his mom was trying to help as much as possible. For example on pages 106 and 107 mom tells about the situation that happened when they went Christmas shopping. While she tried to full extinct to get Christopher out of there, it was Christopher who did not let her do it. Therefore, it has come to my consensus that it was Christopher who made mom go away, because that night was when the trouble erupted between mom and dad. Since all this happened, she went to London with Mr. Shears.

Even though Christopher’s Mom was not that close with Christopher, Christopher’s dad was almost as close to Christopher as peanut butter and jelly on bread. Christopher’s dad mostly affected Christopher during the period that his mom was in London. He always use to take care of him during the times that Christopher and his mom were not doing well together. For example on page 107 it says, “… your father was really nice about it at first and he made you supper and he put you to bed and he said these things happen and it would be OK.” He was like a person willing to answer anything about anything because he was just that patient with Christopher’s Mom. Therefore Christopher’s dad and mom were made for each other because one had no tolerance at all and the other was a person willing to listen to the world most mind-numbing lecture.

While Christopher’s dad and mom are blabbing away, Christopher is the one stuck in the middle of everything. Christopher, an autistic young adult, is trying to overcome his disability throughout the process. On pages 212 he is taking the test when he thinks this, “… I couldn’t think how to answer any o the questions and also I couldn’t breathe properly. And I wanted to hit somebody or stab them with my Swiss army knife, But there wasn’t anyone to hit or stab with my Swiss Army Knife except the Reverend Peters and he was very tall and if I hit him or stabbed him with my Swiss Army knife he wouldn’t be my invigilator for the rest of the exam. So I took deep breaths like Siobhan said I should do when I want to hit someone in school and I counted 50 breaths and did cubes of the cardinal numbers like this …” He is showing that even though he is having test problems because of his autism, he is not willing to pass on such a impressive opportunity for him to have a more enhanced schooling experience, which is really great thing to do for an autistic kid.

In conclusion, Mark Haddon shows how even three very different people can make a wonderful family in the book The Curious Incident of the dog in the Night-time. Through this book you can ascertain that even people with the strangest of disabilities can overcome anything.

Speak Essay

Imagine being at your first day of high school. Usually you would find your friends, talk with them, find what classes you’re in together etc. But for Melinda, all her friends have run away from their posse or just started to be Melinda’s friend. In the book Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson, the author shows how three very different people become or don’t become friends with a sad, depressed high-schooler.

One of the three “friends” that Melinda has is Ivy. Ivy is not your normal buddy. She can be as cold as ice with you at the beginning and as warm as the sun once she really knows you. For example in the section “Wishbone”, Ivy at the beginning tries to outsmart Melinda by staying for one more class period. Even though she did that, Ivy complements Melinda nicely at the end of the section for her “creative” turkey bone artwork. How can such a character do such a thing like that? Hate you friends at first and accept them later. It is just not right in such a book. Therefore, I think Ivy doesn’t have or got kicked out of a group so she is acting nice around Melinda.

Rachelle on the other hand is nothing like Ivy; she pretty much hates Melinda from start to finish. Throughout the whole book both Rachelle and Melinda never really have a conversation until the section called “Communication 101”. Even though Melinda tells her the truth she can’t accept it. Adding to that she screams at Melinda, lies to librarian, and goes to the nurse’s room. Therefore, Rachelle never really was a “true” friend with Melinda, because she never really accepts Melinda for who she really is.

While Rachelle never is Melinda’s friend, Heather acts like one throughout some of the book. To most people there first impression on Heather is a nice, sweet girl to hang out with and both of you can have a jolly good time together. But Heather is probably #1 on the World’s Worst Friend’s List. All she does is use Melinda, get rid of her, and “hang out” with the biggest snobs a person could know. During the end of the book she tries to go back to Melinda, try to be a friend with her, and use her artistic talents. She never ever will have “true” friends unless she stops doing that. Therefore, Heather is probably a bigger loner than Melinda will ever be.

The author Laurie Halse Anderson shows how three very different “friends” can be or not be friends with a very unique high-schooler in the book Speak. In conclusion, Melinda Sordino is really a very nice kid who no one really accepts.
