Night

We have faced the danger of attacks. Even though it seems very impossible the threat is still there. Things happen and civilian attacks are happening more often now. We think that it would never happen to use but we still face the fear of it. There is no comparison to the way the people in the book Night felt. Even though we have a very concerning fear the fear they faced is beyond understanding. What we have went through at the age 15-16 does not compare to what Ellie went through.

Halloween

My family has many traditions for Halloween. Every year my family gets pumpkins from a local  grower in N.C we take them to the farm and shoot them and have a contest to see which person can shoot the smallest pumpkin at the longest distance. While we are doing that my aunt and cousin make pumpkin rolls and pumpkin pie. Then when it gets dark we have a huge bonfire.

We have no control over the things that happen to us. Most of the time good/bad things that happen to us we can not control. Wether it's injuries, bad experiences, or family loses. People always ask why them.
To me it was an injury that kept me from playing baseball for 2 months and left me with life long injuries.

Humans Of New York

Humans Of New York dispels the single story by going beyond what people think of a person and showing there true story.

When I first saw the photo I immediately thought of a athlete that had suffered and injury and could no longer play.

So I began to read his story. He was an active duty medic that had just returned from Afghanistan. He went into detail on how he had saved this girl's life after she stepped on a land mine. He said "But I’m trained to drown it out. I’m trained so well that I almost don’t hear the screaming." But when he returned he thought his family would be there to see as he got off the plane, but no one was. He said nothing is like it was when I left. 

His story shows the insight of who he really is. It goes to show that not every African American man is an athlete. They all have their story's.

If I were a girl

If I Were A Girl  
If I were a girl even just for a day
I'd curl my hair
And do my makeup.

I'd work out
And I'd eat very little
because I'd want to impress all the guys.

If I were a girl
I think I could have a lot of friends.
I swear I'd be very social.
I'd go shopping all the time
because I would want tons of clothes.

If I were a girl
I would go to movies.
I'd spend lots of money

And have lots of clothes

because I know that clothes make you look good.
