Blazing Blazons

BLAZONS

Now that you have researched your Coat of Arms. I want you to write ablazon on your findings. Also include anything you learned while doing this project and how you felt about what you created.

My coat of arms is pretty much one of a kind. Everything that is on the shield is pretty much exactly what I am and it means how I am and what I represent too. The colors or also known as Heraldic are Black or sable. Black means constancy, grief. Another color that represents me would have to be azure or blue. That means strength and loyalty. The last but not least color would have to be argent or another name would be called silver. It means to have sincerity, peace, and the moon.

They're so many different shapes and styles out there. Mine is bordure. It's a border around the shield. Ie means honor, as used to differentiate between family members. Another part of my shield would be saltire. It's an "x" shaped cross going corner to corner. It means St. Andrew's cross, signifying resolution.

There's even tons of animals and pictures meaning all kinds of things. To me the two animals that would represent me are a buck - deer. A deer means one who will not fight unless provoked; peace an harmony. The other one would be a dog. The dog means courage, vigilance and loyalty. I guess you could give me wings which mean swiftness, and protection.

Letters to Soldiers

SOLDIERS

This year many young men and women will be spending their holidays far away from home. Many say that getting mail and news from home is something they look forward to. Please write a letter to a soldier. Once I receive addresses, we will print and mail them.

Dear Soldiers,

I appreciate everything that you guys/ and girls do. I can never do what you all do. I think it's magnificent. You all have such tough jobs and people can get hurt or even worse get killed in action, even though it's a terrible thing to think about it's so honorable. I myself particularly don't like the laws and fighting in wars, it's not my thing. But that doesn't mean I don't or won't respect you guys for it.

Like I said it's a tough freaking job, but someone has to do it. If you guys don't do it then what's to stop the "bad guys" from coming over here.

I know it's tough an you guys probably have so much fear, which to me makes you all brave to actually go and join and fight in battles and wars. I don't know if anyone will get this letter but you all are great and keep up the job that your faced with. Just know one thing, everyone misses you. We are keeping hope alive for all of you out there. Risking your lives is so noble. We are all waiting for you guys to return soon. I just want everyone serving to just take care. Times are pretty crazy now. Sometimes I wonder if the world is worth saving but then you all make a big difference, not to sound too cheesy.

Thanks to giving.

GRATITUDE

It's the time of year to reflect on your life and be grateful for many things. Think about what you are most grateful for and write about it today.

I'm so thankful for the some of my good friends. With out them I pretty much would hate the world and especially all the people in it. I used to be such a loner. I was really okay with that too I could go back any time I want and I would be just fine. Being a loner had it's good qualities and it's bad. It's the same thing for being social too. Being social had it's faults and it's pros as well.

That for instance that being a loner you don't have to take crap from anyone. You don't have to listen to no one no kid, person, teacher etc... You can do what ever you want. You can go where ever you want too. You can do what ever you want an have no care. You do your own thing with out hesitation or care about the consequences of what will happen. But there is a down side to it such as you can get into trouble. You won't know what to do either. No one is around to help you because you didn't be social to them. You don't make barely any friends even at all.

On the other hand being very social is a considered plus. You make so much friends. You get to go out and hang out and do stuff. Friends make you laugh and make you have a good time. They have your back when you need it. They defend you at all times or during those serious times and events. If you need help you can ask them an they can help. But the down side to this one is that friends can piss you off. They can over step their boundaries and you can fight with them. You always have to worry about making them angry or sad by something you say. You can be taken advantage of for things. They can stress you out or have you doing things you don't want to. They can even get you in trouble when you don't want to do something.

But in the end I'm glad to have my real friends cause they are true, it took me a while to find them and I've gone through a lot to meet them finally. So to them I am very thankful. Their here thanks to giving.

Heroes

HEROES

Who is your hero or who has had the most influence on your life? Give actual examples and don't forget to use paragraphs.

Well technically I don't really have any strong influences in my life because everyone is kind of a douche no offense. But to be honest There's actually been people that had influences on my life, such as my guardian which he really isn't my real guardian but it's a long story so I'm not explaining that but yea he has been really good to me an helped me with a lot. He was pretty much there when I needed him the most especially when I got arrested an put into juvy. My friends would also have to be a part of my influence with out them I really don't know what I would do. I'd probably go back to being a loner. They help me out when I need it an they help me make decisions that usually are for the better good. Another small influence would have to be Bruce Lee because I mean come on he's so legendary so there's no need to explain. I wouldn't mind incorporating some of his likeness into me. I don't feel like typing anymore because I'm really tired and I have to start another project. So I'm out for now peace out.

Reflection

REFLECTION

Now that you have completed your first i-movie, reflect on your accomplishment. Write about what you learned about your artist, the software and any skills you acquired in the process.

I think it came out pretty good actually. I really like it and the artist that I did it on too. I-movie was pretty cool an a bit difficult to use at first but then I managed to figure it out by asking some people. The only part about I-movie that I didn't like an couldn't really figure it out was the timer to make all the pictures last longer because the slides went by too fast and I couldn't really see them enough to read so I didn't think other people could either.

My artist was one of my favorites of all. Salvador Dali is one of the greatest yet craziest artist out there. He always had ants an clocks in his work because he feared and didn't like insects what so ever. He has if you look close or far enough double images that make up other images. I think that he's a really cool and diverse artist. He also made weird an unique movies or "films" that made no sense what so ever so people couldn't make sense of the movie. He is known to be the crazy artist with the mustache.

Who is the most evil character in Macbeth?

Who is the most evil character in Macbeth?

Use examples and quotes from the book to support your opinion. You need to write 15 sentences. Use descriptive language and correct punctuation.

To me I have to say that the most evil character in Macbeth would have to be the three witches because if you really think about it it's all their fault. All this devastation is caused by them from the beginning of the story. If it wasn't for them then their would be no murder. Everyone would go on with their own lives. They're so evil an wicked to the chill of their cold bones. They like to cause trouble for no reason what so ever. They even curse a lady's husband just because she wouldn't share some chestnuts with one of the witches. I would really have to say that evil is as evil does an they hurt people. It's even more messed up how they take pride an joy in seeing people being hurt. They go to such length to come up with a concoctions using fingers of little children's fingers in to the stew of the black caldron. They are really sick an twisted. I really actually believe that there's something wrong with their minds or brains. It would even be avoided if Macbeth an Banquo took a different road or path way. But if it wasn't for them then their would be no story to Macbeth now would they. That's why to me they're the most evil character in Macbeth.

Free blog heck yes forgive my language!

Once again I am so wonderfully happy that it's another free blog. Let's see what should I talk about today, what subject should I bring to light? How about music tone. I am a really into music kind of person. I would have to say I listen to all music when I'm in the mood for the specific type of music at that time. I have like all different kinds of music on my ipod. But there's only one type of music I actually hate with a passion an that would have to be country. Like to me country's not music, if I wanted to listen to someone talk an ramble on about their problems then I would listen to Blues, least blues has some soul in it.

I really don't see and understand why people listen to country. It's really annoying to me, but then again everyone's in tittle to their own opinions I suppose. Country sucks, there's my opinion. I mean "Country" doesn't really make any sense talking about making out with their own siblings come on really? Is this really music? I am not completely intolerant to country I may have some country friends but not the music what so ever. I don't like country music it's not for me.

To be honest I really am not sure how long I can keep talking about how much I dislike country music. I am running out of new topics to talk about it. I surly don't even know how people can have country music awards either. Now that stuff is so ridiculous it's unbelievable to be true. I think that country music videos are so freaking hilarious. Most of them don't even make sense at times. How can you call that singing? I don't even know to be truthful.

But I don't take me the wrong way. I don't hate people that like or even listen to country one bit. People are free to express an do what ever they want. If you listen to something that you like then good for you, I as well do too. People are so free to listen to what ever they want it's all them. But then again don't talk or tell me something about country. Another thing that you should know is I don't judge something unless I try it so yea I've listen to country so I have the right to my own opinion to say what I'm saying about country music an what else that has to do with it.

But all in all country yet has it's followers just like any other music out there. What can I really say different people have many different taste. It's what makes them them you know. I am glad that we all are different and have different an unique styles an tastes out there. It for sure makes things more interesting. People should try a variety or things they have never done before. Hey I'm not supporting country music so don't take it the wrong way but you should just try an listen to some country music to see if you like it, or you can see what I'm saying. Have a good day to all. I'm out.

Your project is due today. Reflect on your work. How do you feel about what you accomplished?. Are you prepared? What problems did you encounter. What did you learn about Lord of the Flies and about yourself. What would you have done differently?

Let me see, how do I really feel about what I accomplished on the lord of the flies project..... hmmm. I feel that it could have been better. It lacks to me the practice an flow. Although it was well done lyrically of course. It was a good presentation in the end, it was not great but good or you could say it was just adequate enough. It sounded an had some good parts of the lord of the flies in the rap.

Let's just say that I was as prepared as a new born baby about take some sky diving lessons. Yeah buddy. I should have practice some more. But all in all it was okay to me but I don't know if the teacher will think so. It would have sounded better if there was some music. It had to be done acapella unless someone wanted to do a beat for us.

Some things I would have done very differently would be putting some music or at least some beats with the rap. There would have been more too it an be that much more well done. I would have been more inspired to in courage supporting partners in my group to do more or anything at all.

I learned that those kids are freaking crazy an so uncivil in such a short period of time. I also learned about myself is that I would never be so kind to a sign powers to people I believe to be corrupted in evil ways as to harm an do unnecessary things like that.

WHAT IF........?

What if...? Finish the sentence anyway you like. This is your chance to pick a topic. Use examples, descriptive words, elaboration, creativity and your brain to express your thoughts.

What if we had a perfect utopia? I know what you're thinking, yea right but just go with me on this one for at least one sec..... are you still with me, good. Just think about it okay. In a wonderful and magnificent world we would not have any crime what so ever. I just hope that one day regardless of what color the president, or even the interjection of the government, but the people it's self does something about the world, no pollution, no segregation, no violence, no hate, no world hunger, no corruption of power, no sickness of all types, but you would have to think would we all be the same kind of person or is that why we have the violence and trails and tribulations of war and etc..

I'm so sorry if this is making you think, I just think about things, some important from time to time, why can't the world strive for perfection? Why can't, instead of saying why can't "What If?" the world was a perfect utopia? I'm really so glad that today is our free post, I like writing what I feel sometimes, I think it makes me a little more human. I can honestly say that I can write about this subject since well.... there's not topic to write specifically about. If the world was a perfect utopia then we wouldn't have wars with other countries and with in our selfs. We would have no motivation for being number one, we would not have to make weapons at least against other human beings.

Everyone will most certainly get along with each other with out the sacrifice of individuality. The thing to think about is would we still need some kind of currency like money or would we simply go back to bartering with other people for certain jobs. Another negative to this would also have to be how would we advance with out competition? Would we still have that motivation or would we lack it? Well that's all I had to get off my chest so until we have another free post then my inspiration will be limited ...... sadly.

Obstacles!

As we go through life we encounter obstacles that we need to overcome. What are some of the challenges you are facing during your senior year and how are you planning to overcome them? What are some of the things you will need to do to make this happen?

Wow! I still can barely believe that it's my senior year, well to be honest right now I'm really tired, but i'll try an keep on going. Some of my obstacles that I need to over come would be my darn g.p.a. right now it's a 2.9 it used to be a 3.0 but I don't really know what happened. I don't really qualify for anything as of yet that I know of, but i have to look an see if i can find something. I have to over come my grade point average. I need to get serious about this if I want to have a future. I need to start to focus on my goals, my future goals not just personal.

Back in Time!!

Think back to your freshmen year. Are there things you would have done differently? Did you make any bad choices? What are some good things you did that are paying off now. With those thoughts in mind, write a letter to a freshman offering advice. Please take this seriously and practice expanding your thoughts by using figurative language.

My Freshmen year, wow to me it feels like a decade ago. It seems so far in the past. My Freshmen year was excellent and I was infected with "Slackerismness Syndrome" even though I know well that this is not a real disease. By far I would have to say that my Freshmen year was my most favorite year of bayshore, so far that is. There would definitely be things I would have done differently. I actually did make some bad choices freshmen year, I'm pretty sure a lot of students did as well.

Some of the bad and poor choices I made would have to be skipping some times here and there. I slacked of so much it's not even funny. I did like the bare minimum work and home work, but i think it's funny because I rarely learned anything but yet I usually get good grades such as A's and B's in all my class. I still wonder if that was a good thing or bad. In all of my classes all I ever did was just talk to people around me, It was mostly just jokes passing around the room, but I was having a good time just messing around with my friends. I didn't study as much as I probably should have, but it's impressive that I rarely studied and yet my grades where good, so just imagine if i had studied.

Some good things that I did back in Freshmen year that stayed with me would be how I had made good, no better yet Great friends. So all you new Freshmen, take heed and learn from other people's mistakes. Studying is just as important as "Chillin'" with your friends. If you don't take it seriously it will come back to haunt you with a vengeance so to speak. To be honest, if you're going to skip school or a specific class, don't skip to much, at least enough so that you stay on top of your school work.

So now to you newbies stay on top of your stuff and good luck to all, I know it sounds really corny, but yet it's true. See you in your future. Blaaahh =]

Today’s Topic: You are finally a senior! What do you want to accomplish this year? What are the things you’re looking forward to doing? What are things you want to avoid? What are your goals?

I, myself, still can not believe it, but it is pretty fantastic yet uneasy in some ways. It excites me yet worries me for the future. This year I want to accomplish many things, let me correct myself, to I their are many. I want to get stronger, mentally and physically. I want to raise my goals, I would also like, no love to get my g.p.a. up. I'm looking forward to getting my life together. I am also looking forward to getting a job but that's really hard right now. I'm really looking forward to doing art in my free time. Another one of my goals this year is to make as much friends as I possibly could, cause friends are excellent connections when you're in a pickle. Some things I most deffintely want to avoid is getting in a fight in school. I also want to avoid doing bad and getting terrible grades in my classes.

Things that describe me.

Yea, you're entering the "Swaggerific" zone so be careful alright.
