I'm the Official Junior

12/14/17 The book I was reading was called, “I will save you.” This book was written by the author Matt De La Pena. The genre of this book is Realistic Fiction.  This book is about a kid named  “Kidd Ellison,” h im and his mother got abused by his father... a lot. One day his mom was done dealing with all the bs that they put up with and shot Kidd's father three times, after she shot herself in the head. Kidd was them put into a group home called Horizons and was given therapy. Kidd later ran way from the group home and ended up working in a campsite with his boss Mr.Red. Kids therapy was not fully completed so throughout the book there are many problems because of that. He met a girl named Olivia and she was like t he is the girl of his dreams. She always wears a ski cap and nobody ever knew why. This didn’t change Kidd’s opinion on how beautiful he thought she was. Kidd and Olivia are quite opposite but also very similar. Olivia is very rich and smart while Kidd is very ...

“What love isn’t,” is such a great and very accurate poem. It explains love very well and compares to the book The Outsiders very well. They both have a lot in common. Life does not always go well, there are many troubling parts to it but we always push through it no matter what. In the poem What love isn’t there is this short excerpt that says, “It is now and till the end. It is never a slither, never a little it is a full serving it is much too much and real never pretty or clean.” This relates to my connection to the outsiders because this quote means that love is now to the end and you never give up, it's a lot to handle. Just like the Greasers. They stick together no matter what. Sometimes they might have big problems but they never give up on trying to deal with them,. Yeah it’s hard but they’re brothers. What love isn’t also has this quote, it is weight and it is too heavy to feel good sometimes. It is discomfort — it is not what the films say.” This quote connects to t...

In some ways the movie did stay true to the novel but, there were many things that were just plain out had about the movie compared to the book. The emotion, the acting, it just wasn’t the same. The book made it feel more real. I think the director did a bad job delivering the novel's message because the actors did not show the same emotion that the characters in the book did. I didn’t really feel the same way I did when I read the book. They were almost like robots. Between The Outsiders book and movie there were many similarities. For example, in both Pony and Johnny were in the drive in movie where they met Cherry Valance and Marcia. Also, Johnny had killed Bob the SOC leading him and Ponyboy to run away and hide in the abandoned church. Both the movie and the book had the scene about the Church fire and Johnny had broke his back. In both movie and the book, Johnny tells Ponyboy to stay golden. This is an important scene because when Johnny tells him this he wants Pony to r...

I am a 13 year old Mexican boy who loves to play baseball. It's my passion, it's something I will always do. I am known as very tall, mostly because everyone is just really short. I am catholic, although I rarely ever go to church because there is never time to go, my family and I is still very religious. I am  a very nice person, as long as you are nice to me. A lot of things do irritate me though. When I'm mad, I am really mad. I could go from that frustrated type of mad to WW2 mad. I don't know, I just turn into a very rude person when angered. I talk a lot. I could talk to anyone and then it turns into a full on conversation. I have a very enthusiastic humorous personality. I’m really loud, I’m extra about everything. That’s just me.

BLEEP ! BLEEP! BLEEP! As my coaches alarm was ringing waking up everyone in disgust. "SHUT IT OFF!" Me and my teammates screamed. My team and I were not morning people. (Me and my team were in Cooperstown and when you're there you have to sleep in the same room with your team in a little Barack. Along with the other 100 teams that are there.)       It was time for breakfast, the most important meal of the day. Really important for us because we always have morning games. In Cooperstown you couldn't go anywhere without wearing your uniform. As we changed to head to breakfast, the whole team was just talking about the game today and how they're gonna hit homeruns and whoop the other team. We might sound cocky, but thats not the case. We're just confident.       After we ate breakfast we head back to back to our barrack to get all our baseball stuff and head to the field. Just like any other game I has butterflies and excitement at the same time. While wal...

In 10 years from now, I would like my career to be me playing in the MLB. If I'm not in the MLB I would like to be in Triple A baseball. I would like to be living in LA, Arizona or Colorado. But where I live depends on what team i play on. I want to be living an a nice apartment with my girlfriend i have at the time. The car i want at the time is a 1967 chevy impala. The exact car that Dean Winchester had in the tv show Supernatural. In 10 years I would like to have at least 25 of my dream shoes. I want at least the Retro Jordan's 1-12. 2 pairs of shoes for each number.  I would wanna have a good amount of expensive stuff. Brands like polo, Versace, Gucci etc. My last goal is to be financially stable. Be able to pay the bills, put food on the table and have a roof over my head.
