After

I'm done with another book. It was called After. It was cool. The book started out when these kids at a high school found out about a school shooting 50 miles away at a school. So for their school, a guidance counselor is brought in incase kids need helping coping with the tradegy at the school 50 miles away. That's understandable. The rest of what happens it not. This guidance counselor dude basically takes over the school. Soon the priniciple supposably retires, and all these new rules are made. Like you cannot wear red, also they install medal detectors, they search backpacks daily and even ask for random drug tests because the school "wants to be extra careful so a school shooting doesn't happen there. The story follows mostly these four friends who all play on the basketball team. The get curious and start figuring out what's going on. Well I won't tell you what happens, so read it!! The only kind of bad thing about the book is how it ends. I don't really like the ending.

The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits.

This is a quote form Albert Einstein. And here is a website for funny Quotes from famous people. And here is another one from Arnold Schwarzenegger on his running for California Governor: “It's the most important decision I've had to make since 1978 when I decided to get a bikini wax.” Well here is a link leading to a website about funny quotes from famous people. Although some aren’t really funny. Funny Quotes. The picture is just funny that's why I posted it. But I definitely think that it is not true. LOL.

28 weeks later

The film starts six months after the Rage virus has spread throughout the city of London. The United States Army has restored order and is repopulating the quarantined city, when a carrier of the Rage virus enters London and unknowingly re-ignites the spread of the deadly infection, wreaking havoc on the entire population.

I got that review thingy from this sitehttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0463854/plotsummary. It kinda seems like one of those wierd sci-fi movies, but I heard that it is supposed to be pretty good. At least better than Spider Man 3. ha ha

Our Performance

My group and I are going to be performing a skit on Romeo and Juliet from Act III, scene 4 and part of 5.

At the beginning Lord Capulet, Lady Capulet, and Paris are talking about wedding plans for Juliet and Paris. As you know Lord Capulet wasn't that crazy about his daughter getting married just yet when Paris asked earlier. Now that Tybalt has died, he thinks what his daughter needs is to get married and as soon as possible so he plans a wedding for Paris and Juliet on Thursday of that week. Wow, not much time for any planning.

While those three were talking Juliet and Romeo were up in Juliet's room having their honeymoon. Pretty funny, huh?

I can't wait until Monday, because I personally think our pictures and skit is going to be hilarious.

It all starts when Matthew... I also think that it sounds really good because the plot for the book seems to be a very complex one. Here is another site which I found that includes all the answers to anything about the book witch you might have.

You can also read part of the book at that site. This site is really cool because you get to learn all about the book before even opening the first page.

Caribbean School

Hey everyone. I just thought i'd show you guys my school that i went to in Puerto Rico. Thats the front of it right there in the pic. Its a very small school. It was a private english speaking school too so there was around 450 people pre K-12th grade. i think there was only like 35 people in my 8th grade class. So yea, extremely small, but i loved it. The only bad thing was that we had to wear uniforms. I'm gonna give you the link to the website of the school. its really cheesy looking. lol. but oh well. and if you go to "headmasters newsletter" and pan down you'll find a picture and the two girls on the right were two of my best friends from Puerto Rico. :) Check it out!!!
