hello english (:
hellooo bloggers :
Lately I feel as If each day is dragging and the weeks as well maybe It's because we only have 3 weeks left , and in two weeks we will begin testing for exams the only thing in the world im dreading and probably the last thing on my mind kinda. I am striving to ed with amazing grades to show off all the hard work and dedication I put into my Sophmore year so my summer will be amazing !!!
Anywho we are summing up the last pages of Orson Welles probably to me the most interesting book we have read all year , and the only book that has truly kept my attention the whole way through. The teenage character in the story has really found his way and is moving at the beat of his drum at the very begining of the story he was constantly struggling asking the constant question "Who am I ?" But he finally realizes who he is and what he stands for in the new chapter 16/17 he stood up to Orson Welles and later makes a Deal with him later in which Orson apologizes for all of the harsh things he had recently said to Richard and let's him rejoin to cast of the play Julius Caesar. In this whole experience just when Richard finds the one girl that finally likes him , he finds out that she was seeing Orson Welles too but , Orson Welles is married and he has a pregnant wife so he is technically having an affair with one of his so called workers of the cast which is awful. But the play is going all well until Richard's friends give shout out's sying Black Crow during his speaking role in the play. I can't wait until we finish this book it seems like every chpter is even better than the last , I just hope that Orson Welles is found out about his cheating ways. I just hope the Exam for english is is easy as the little short tests we take in class.

English class !
Hello bloggers !
I'll give a short and brief sum up of the new book we are reading about Orson Welles , me myself and didn't think I would have liked this book very much but it is very relatable what is going on in some ways. Some of the things the young Kid named Richard talks about are very out there, but the book is very entertaining in all I guess. With is book we are doing the same thing that we did with Julius Caesar reading a certain amount of chapters and then having short brief quizzes about those chapters and sometimes there would be quotes or vocabulary also. I didn't really find The book Julius Caesar very interesting with the old English and all , but Orson Welles on the other hand is very entertaining and catches everybody's attention and it really passes the time in class. Unlike Julius Caesar whenever we were suppose to read that book in class I would dread every minute of it and I felt like it only made the class period drag along slower and slower which wasn't the best. Any-who the school year is narrowing which is very exciting I'm counting down everyday and making everything count for my grades, with the days narrowing down this would only mean the final exams are also coming soon as well and I'm not looking forward to all of that studying and notecards everywhere ughghh !!

Hello Bloggers !
today is fridayyyy yes probably my favorite day out of the whole weeek, and it's also the month of may which also happens to mean there are only likee twenty days of school left !
I am trying to really do my best these last couple of weeks sooo that I can enjoy my summer to the fullest with no dull days. Anyways alot of my teachers have been starting to talk about the final exams that we are going to have the last week and a half of school which im realllly not looking forward to at all , but at least the weather will be amazing which means it will finally be SUMMER (: This week in english class we have been re-taking quizzes that we could re-do in attempts to getting a better grade, we also finally finished Julius Caesar which was not a very interesting book to me some days I just wanted to fall asleep but I didn't. The last chapters of the book for me were not very interesting , the one chapter that stuck out the most for me would be when Brutus is in his tent reading and he sees an apparation which appears to be Caesar's ghost seeking revenge on all the conspirators that killed him. One by one the commit suicide by stabbing thereselves with there own sword. But un-like the others Brutus wants to die an honourable death he asks Strato to hold out his sword and he will run upon it , which he did and his dying words were now Caesar be still. i killed not thee with half so good a will. What this means is that it was easier to kill hiself than it was killing Caesar who seen him as a good friend. He would be remembered as the nobelest man of them all, his intenions on killing Caesar were only for the good of Rome not out of envy like the other conspirators. Now in English class we are starting a new book about Orson Welles , yesterday we just took notes an today we just watched a biography about him and his work. I hope this book is better than Julius Casear if not I will be struggling from trying not to fall asleep.

hello bloggers, I am soo happy this week not only because we finally finished the book Julius Caesar and the notes also , but because it's May which also means we are in the last month of this school year. Anyways lately in English class we have been finishing up the book and taking Notes and having short little quizzes here and there. Not really much in my other classes on the other hand I've had quizzes galore , which has kinda been a drag because I found out we get out interim cards Friday I think my grades are okay but I will have to wait and see I guess fingers crossed I did okay. This has also been a pretty bad week because we have been dissecting in biology class which almost had me in tears I hope we are done with it I hate it soooo much and it is really bad because right after dissecting a frog or perch fish I would have lunch which always made me lose my appetite yuck !
But on the other hand we've been in preparation for our choir contest which has been highly entartaining besides the sight reading which is my least favorite thing to do in choir .

If I could do a re-make of Julius Caesar , I would cast the following celebrities .
I would cast the role of Caesar to P.Diddy because he has been around for a while and has a lot of different products by him and advertisements which would lead some to think he has too much power. The role of Brutus would deffinately be Kanye West who is very arrogant and thinks he deserves the same amount of respect as Caesar and is willing to do whatever it takes to get this known to everyone else. The role of Cassius would be played by Angelina who in the show jersey shore tried to turn best friends against each other and is very dangerous. The fortune teller role would be cast to Robert Pattinson who is very aware of his surroundings which he warns those around him. The role of Antony would be cast to Taylor Lautner who is very good looking and a honest and very outgoing person. The role of Casca would be cast to Kirsten Stewart who is very awkward and sees things in a different way. The role of Cicero would be cast to George Clooney who is older an honored and also very wise. The role of Portia
would be beyonce who is very bold and a great actor.

Hello bloggers , yaaaay we got our report cards yesterday and I myself am very satisfied with my grades especially math which is my least favorite subject but hey I have an 85 in that class sooo im just fine. Anyways let me see last week we started watching the Julius Caesar movie Thursday and finished it on Friday which , was very confusing to me since we couldn't watch the movie from the very begining which mad me very upset because I knew nothing that was going on. But me myself whenever I talk about Julius Caesar in English I hear the same exact thing how boring the New Unit is which is not vbery pleasing for me to hear because I hate reading stories those such that will bore me. We just started reading the book Monday which is for me the worst day of the week and the hardest trying to re-adjust from the weekend. In my own opinion the story isn't really that bad, the language they use in the book is pretty annoying but other then that its okay i guess. Hopefully reading this book will become more interesting so far we learned how Julius Caesar was seen as everything and everybody in the town respected him. Then we learn about Brutus and Cassius who tries to turn Brutus against Caesar saying such things as how Brutus has the same things that Julius Caesar has , but he does not recieve the same respect as he does. I can't wait until something else supensful happens in the story.

Hello bloggers, gosh its really been a while since we just came back from spring break i really was dreading coming back and getting back into the flow of homework, test and quizzes. But i really like the project that was assigned to us, The multi-genre novel I chose to read Twilight. Which mainly consists of two teens that share a forbidden love, but each day it will be tested and in such it will show them how strong the relationship really is. The project for me was really easy I started planning ahead what I would chose to do from each of the 3 columns. I really liked the discussion we had today about william shakespeare , which whenever his name is said the first thing you hear are groans and the students saying how pointless his stories are. In mr. Potters words "William Shakespeares is the man". And we read a sonnet today which was written over 500 years ago and he wrote about a girl's beauty that he is comparing to alot of different things from the summer and how her beauty will be forever eternal. Im not looking forward to reading the story julius ceaser it sounds pretty boring , but ill just wait and see i guess .
