The Man Who Thought

Every year my family and I go on a summer vacation to the Dominican Republic and every year I see the same man. He always in the same spot on a rock that is half of it the soft, white sand and the other half in beautiful green vegetation that starts minuscule amounts of brush and leaves but then explodes into gargantuan trees and vines, where all that can be seen is green. I have never seen the man move once in my life he stays on his rock from dawn to dusk completely still, just staring in the vast amount of blue with a cigarette in his hand. His eyes are surrounded by deep wrinkles like large crevasses in the earth that show years of experience and misfortune. He keeps is cigarette in his hand; he does not smoke it. The man just lets it burn and as the ash falls it begins to pile on his rock like a snowy peak on top of a blistering mountain.

I am the man. I like movies

     I have chosen to portray the character George from the book of Mice and Men to the movie. Due to illness I was not able to watch the first part of the movie, although I did catch the second half. I believe that George in the movie was a little more intelligent and larger in scale than I imagined in the book. When I was reading the book I thought of George more of a street smart kind of guy instead of an actual educated gentleman. I also thought of George more a man who had Lennie around because he did not have the physical properties he needed to work at the ranch, but in the movie he seems that he does not even need Lennie in fact in looks as if he could handle him self on the ranch. I also pictured Lennie and Georges friendship a little differently in the book it seems that George treats Lennie more like a little kid that never behaves and in the movie I thought he treated him more like an adult. The George in the book was the one I preferred because it was the one that my mind created and when I watched the movie that kind of just ruined it for me. So in conclusion I give the Mice of Men movie a rating 5 out of 10 for its poor performance to display the characters the way the book did.

Welcome to the Real World

      Hello! Future Professors, Teacher Assistants and counselors. After reading this letter of convincing and remarkable literature you believe that I am some sort of God. That this young man has what it takes, that he is the profit of life. I have walked the sands of time. I have watched God undress and create the morning. I have danced from dusk till dawn across the Sahara Desert. The Queen bows to me.
      My life is a never ending, winding road, where each turn is a new adventure and every hill is a challenge that I will over come. I have climbed Everest dressed as a Stormtrooper. There is no women that can ignore my charismatic ways and my devilishly handsome face, with my beautiful brown hair. I am Justin Bieber. I do not believe in cutting down tree's to make pointless paper and cardboard. Why? because paper cuts are the most brutal and infuriating wounds to have ever been experienced by man. I once wrestled with a Giraffe. BABY, BABY, BABY OH! I once cut down a Cedar Tree with a jug of Koolaid. I do not believe in religion, relgion believes in me. Sometimes when i go home I pretend im a cat and make pancakes. MEOW. One time I even read the whole Harry Potter Saga in under seven minutes. I once faught 300 Spartans with a toothbrush and Bobby pin. I won. You are probably wondering who is this wonderboy? Why is he so amazing? Well ladies and Gentlemen I am Ian Ellison one of the knites of the round table the man who convinced Alexzander The Great to pull the sword from the stone to find the holy grail. I was also the man who was smart enough to kill him and steal all his treasures as soon as he found them. I rule camalot.
Bow before your king! Bow before excelence! Bow before the future! Now let me in your school you poor pessents.
