In the woods

If I wake up in the morning,
If the weather is clear outside,
If it is cold outside,
If the frost is on the ground,
If I enter the woods.

If the woods are silent,
If the deer never move,
If I never get up from my stand,
If the deer come by,
If I make the perfect shot.

book review: Heat

Mike Lupicas book Heat was a good read that I would to recommend to any sports reader.

The setting of this book was in the Bronx on the ball fields an in the city.  Michal, Carlos an his dad came from Cuba an once they get to America there life gets better then something horrible happens Carlos if forced to work two jobs an keep his age a secret to keep his jobs because he is only 17.

The brothers in this story was as real as they come. they were very close to one another. Carlos did all he could to keep them together. working two jobs not fighting an keeping Michale out of trouble so they wouldn't be split apart an put into foster homes.

I can think of nothing that compares to the struggles of these two brothers. It was Michale's dream to go to the little league world series in Williams Port, but when he couldn't get his birth certificate from Cuba problems began to arise. Also Carlos was having problems with work.


I would recommend this book to any body who likes sports or a slightly suspenseful read. You never know whats gonna happen next in this story.

bullying

During the story a rose for Emily the bullying was very obvious. She had claimed to not have to pay taxes but the man she was talking bout had been dead for ten years. Also she killed the man she wanted to marry so he couldn't ever leave her. She poisoned him with arsenic. After he was dead she slept with him till her death an his body was badly decomposed.

homecomeing 2010

I play football an this game is a big game for us. Since we 7-0 this year this game is insuring us that we will go to the state play offs. Everyone is excited  on the team for this game because making the state play offs is our first goal we have reached this year.

I don't really understand why were having the homecoming dance so far after the homecoming game. The dance after the game was always something to look forward to after a hard fought game. All the players an cheerleaders have always made it to the dance with plenty of time. instead of having an actual homecoming dance we are having a fall formal sometime in the future.

This week is one of the craziest weeks of school. All the halls have decorations on the walls an wrapped around the poles. posters made for all the seniors are all over the school. Everyone is dressing up for the different crazy days of messy Monday Hawaiian Tuesday an western Wednesday. We have a pep rally on Friday before the game an to get all the students riled up for the game. Blythville better be ready when they come to Batesville.
