quick read

for my quick reading min. i chose to read a section out of Marley and Me. I really enjoyed this book because it was so easy to relate to the characters because when i was reading it. my golder retriever was also a puppy that acted exactly like Marley. the part i read was when Jenny and John were making their final choice on a dog finalized by "the scare test". i also chose to read this book because it is soon to be a movie.

I recently read a fung shui book. It was a collection of fung shui ideas and how to apply basic fung shui principals into everyday life style. It also taught you what the different colors are supposed to bring to your life. Some examples of how to change your decore to bring the benefits of fung shui are, to put a vase of yellow flowers in your kitchen to increase your wealth. You can also tie nine small bells on a red chord and hang it from your front door to bring happiness into your home.

In movies there are several different types of heros. The prince who saves the damsel in distress. The citizen who fights for what is right, no matter how harsh of a punishment. Why'll looking at these differnt heros, i decided to focus on Human and Animal heros.


HUMAN:




Batman is a hero because he saves the town from the joker, and numerous other "bad guys"


Hercules is a hero because he risks his life in order to save Megaras. He is also a hero because he saves his home from all of the creatures Hades trys to kill him with.

Forrest gump is a hero because he wins the metal of honor for his courageous efforts in the Vietnam war.

In movies there are several different types of heros. The prince who saves the damsil in distress, the citizen who sticks up for what is right no matter how harsh a punishment. Why'll examining the different heros iv decided to focus on human and animal heros.



ANIMAL:

Chance, Shadow and Sassy are heros because they all help eachother survive in this long journy to find their home and family.

Lassie is a hero because she informs people when theres trouble. She is selfless and is always willing to help others.


Buddy is a hero because he is a friend to Josh when hes going through a tough time coping with the death of his dad. Buddy is also a hero because he helps the Timberwolves win the finals.

CONCLUSION: Animal and human heros are very similar, they can both save people and do good. They both have a yern to help people and do good. Both are selfless and think about others before themselves, thats why they are considered heros.

Reading

I finished the sequal to stargirl, called love, stargirl. I enjoyed this book even more because it was from stargirls point of view this time. This book made me think about how much good a person can do & feel. It was a little frusterating at times because i always wanted her and leo together, even if that wasnt the case. I would also recommend this book to people who have read stargirl, because you feel like your one of the characters, or in the book.
