My Progress ! :)

My three favortie posts that I have typed so far in eight grade are the following.
-Comparing myself with a Character I liked this one very much because I was actually very similar to a character in the book which made it even more interesting for me to read. Also I could imagine my self being in Rue's position.
-Don't Judge others The reason i like this one was because I put some of my experiances when people bully me at school. You know so if the reader is reading my blog they will know what it is like to be bullied and judge for being your self.
-Time Traveling This is the best one I liked because it was so amazing when I was watching the videos on YouTube. I was just like o m g! I didn't even know what to say. Another reason this was my favorite was because I added alot of detail's so the reader can imagine the video with them watching it. Whhich made me really proud of myself! :)
         Well I have two of my posts that I feel are the best examples of my creativity. The first one is The Tale Tell Heart. I think this is very creative because I didn't explain the book in just words I made a pop up book which can make the reader actually want to see my blog post instead of not understanding anything I say if i just type it up. The other posts I also thought was creative was Don't Judge Others because I put my self  in the position of the person being bullied to explain how they feel.
        Some evidence of my growth as a writer is my post of My Perfect World because when I went back and read it i noticed that I use to skip to another topic and not explain what I am trying to say very well. But thanks to Mr. Fulton now I know what needs to be included in my writing so it can turn out good. So now when I write short stories such as Time Traveling & Don't Judge Others, I noticed i actually write a whole lot more and I write as if i was talking to my readers so they can understand better and I also add good description in my stories. 
        What does the World Say About Beauty? I think this post is proof that i am a thinker/learner because even though it was a short passage that I put allot of effort into it. I told the reader an example of how the world would turn out to be if we all had to be a certain way so we could fit in. Also I left them thinking about how it would be if you couldn't tell a certain special person that they are unique because they really aren't since in this world you have to be a certain way just to fit it.
         

"Don't Judge Others"

       Okay first of all I don’t get why you would want to judge someone! It’s not like your going to become famous. Maybe you would at school but that’s only because people are going to think you are cool since you hurt some one’s feelings. Anyways like i was saying making fun of people won’t get you a job, I bet it won’t even get you through school because you are only worried about bullying someone innocent. I really hate seeing people get bullied. Especially when people don’t know what the person being bullied is going through. Although sometimes it’s the bully that is going through a hard time and that’s the only reason they act like they do. Like people think i am “cool” , but guess what i even get bullied!  I get made fun of alot because of my height but i really don’t care what people think of me. Some things DO hurt my feelings like when people call me names or when they say i look ugly or something but I just think of it as a compliment because I know certain people are jealous.

That’s the main reason people bully or judge others, because they are jealous. I mean you know we all have been jealous of someone in our life. You know there’s always gonna be that person that does something better than you. But let me tell you something bullying them or making them feel really bad about their self's doesn’t solve the problem. So don’t do it ! And remember if you see someone being bullied or being judged stand up for them and you will have a bunch of friends, you might loose some put those you loose were never your real friends.

Time Traveling :)

One day while I was sitting down watching TV my cousin came for a visit. Then out of no where she told me that she had this cool video to me on YouTube. So we logged on and waited till the computer was fully loaded. Then on YouTube we typed in time traveling caught on tape. With just a click all these videos popped up. So we picked one to watch and it was this video from an old TV show and in one of the episodes this women in the background walking by and it looked like she was talking on the phone. It was very freaky because that show was from a long time ago and by that time there wasn’t any phones around. My eyes got big! After that video I started searching for more just thinking about other amazing things i could find.

Then all of a sudden I saw a video that was named “Time traveling with evidence” or something like that. Anyways my point is that when i watched it i was like WHOA!! It was about this man that had a leak under his sink and while he was fixing it he felt weird and he said it was like he hit his head. When he got up from the sink he said everything looked normal but when he went outside to see where his family was he was surprise and confused because of what he saw. When he had realized that he was looking at himself but older. At that moment he didn't know what to do, if i was him i would be really confused and i would be asking alot of questions, then he talked to his older self and they just started being friendly. The YouTube video was like an interview and when he showed the video he had for evidence that he was in the future it was him beside himself  and they were smiling. Then they both showed the tattoos they had on the same arm. Whoa it was crazy my cousin and me were surprised. Then we watched some other crazy videos on YouTube.
After that video we watched more and more until she had to leave. That was a really fun day. But then i thought in my head. "Can't time traveling affect the future and the past''? Like it will really mess up everything. For example if you go to the past and show them about electricity, they will have electricity and when you go back to your present it will be more advance. But i guess these people didn't affect anything. Thanks for reading my blog ! :)
