Children of the River

What I would do is I would move far far away. I would get in my car and drive as far as my car would take me. I would go to a remote place in another state like Kansas. After I leave for Kansas I go to the nearest bank, out of state, and withdraw all of my money. I would bring all of my family and friends along with me and we would all live in Kansas together happy and alone.

Dear Journal,

I would go off and find some solitary farm in the middle of some mountain. I would grow my food and sell what I can to keep my house and farm. Before I buy a farm i would stalk up on text books and literature to stay mentally fit. Cloths would be bought from the market and i would follow the Chinese government to not cause any trouble.

Sources......yeah

My site that I found is a valid because I found this on the web site, "References from this web page do not constitute an endorsement or recommendation of any products, services, or information."

My site is reliable because it has loads of info about everything: backgrounds, witnesses, what she did, and how she was charged. 

My site is accurate because of all the in formation it puts out.

Research step 1

In English I have searched a case about a women that was sentenced to capital punishment. She committed a series of five murders. I have not yet made a thesis sentence because i am still researching this topic. I think that this topic is very interesting because there are a lot of good points about why or why not capital punishment should be used. We have not yet discussed the note taking process in History.

Research

What do you think about when you hear research?- I try to find all the info that I can find, I organize it according to my project then I choose what info best fits the project.
What are the steps in the research process?- First research, organize, plan, eliminate.
Discuss a research paper you did in the past.- I had to find an antique in our house and do a research paper about it.
What were the positive and negative aspects of the experience? The positive part of the research paper it that you learn new things about new subjects. The negative parts is that it is time consuming.
Describe  your final product.- The final product was an extremely well written paper. I got a 90 something on it.

Thesis

Driving is one of the most exciting things that a teenager looks forward when growing up. First, everyone starts out going to the grocery store for their parents, this can be helpful towards your parents. Secondly, driving is one of the most effective ways to get to work, it would keep parents from driving back and forth from work to the house. Third, driving gives teens the opportunity to socialize with other people and not be stuck in the house. Parents should let me drive because it will expand my experiences as a teenager.

New Model

What stood out to me was the 17 year old girl that did drugs when she was seven. She sold pills to get money for lunch because she was poor she was in and out of jail and detention centers her whole life. She hates her mom because her mom left her behind and didn't care about her.

Two Statements

 "People change in two ways-with slow persistent pressure, or with a single and sudden traumatic experience.  That's why people often change so much when they have a near-death experience.  I believe something significant happened to Cole on the island". Edwin






What are the ways that healing and change can take place in life?-The ways that healing and change take place can either a slow persistent pressure or a sudden traumatic experience
How does one go through the process of healing and change?-  you can have a slow consistent change or a fast near-death experience 
Is it all the same?- no, you can change at a fast pace or a slow pace
How does healing/change reflect culture?- yes, because different cultures change and heal differently

Totem poles

I am an...

Octopus Intelligence, camouflage, nocturnal.


it reminds me of myself because I am very intelligent. The octopus is a very intelligent and so am I because i have never had a a grade less then a C. I can also blend in with a crowd like during the year I have been in a mix of upper class-men (mostly in band). The octopus is a nocturnal animal and I have been up all hours of the night before.
