My favorite video game


My favorite game is Prototype 2. This game is good because of its graphics and its storyline. In it action, drama, suspense and because its brand new. The main character has to deal with him losing his family and friends because of the plague. The people who made this game must have put a lot of detail and effort into this game. Because this game just came out not many people will buy this but when it is out for a long enough time everyone will learn the good effects of this game.

My least favorite food


My least favorite food is onions. Because the first time it had it tasted horrible. Also it is crunchy and hard. After you are done eating it you get really bad breath. You also have to cut open the onion before you eat it and if some of the juice comes up and hits you in the eye it will sting for hours.

Sports Car Winner

Lamborghini Murcielago because it is fast cool and it cost a lot. Also because it has a high rate of speed at 221 mph and because it is so small it has very little blind spots. It is better than most cars like the Dodge Challenger because of its ability to go from 0 to 60 faster or the Ferrari because of its v12 engine and its ability to make sharp turns and quicker shifts. Also it has its 631 horsepower.  The interior feels like a dream. The outside is built for speed because of its curved shape and aerodynamics.

The Shoes That Changed Every Thing


      
Just think running up and down a sleek wooden floor dribbling a basketball, shooting and passing the ball to your teammate. Well in the book “Red-Hot High-tops” that exact thing happens to a girl named Kelly Roberts, but whenever she gets the ball she always freezes up.
Until one day after a game something in her locker will change her life and the others around her. The readers will learn that it’s not what’s on the outside but it’d what’s on the inside

Kelly would play every game the same, she would freeze up. Then after a tough loss to another team, she finds a pair of red Nike high-tops. She asked her teammates around her to see if the shoes were anyone’s. They all said the same thing, so she figured she would
try them on. To her surprise they fit perfect! After that game she could not stop thinking about those shoes.

The next game she asked the coach to see if she could where them for the game. She said yes but she said that if she wore them she would have to make at least one bucket. Her teammates where a little jealous though that Kelly got to where her new shoes, and that the other girls didn’t get to where some of the new stuff they wanted to where.

She was put in the game halfway through the first quarter. She threw in the ball to continue the game. Just seconds later she was open at the other teams bucket. Her teammate passed her the ball. As she was waiting there with the ball. She thought then and there that she would freeze up. But then as she heard the pounding of basketball shoe behind her Kelly got enough courage to shoot the ball. As the crowd and her teammates watch the basketball fly off the backboard into the hoop.

The point of this story is that it’s not what’s on the outside it’s what is on the inside. I believe that Kelly learned that lesson in the whole basketball season.

Alaska's Wilderness Save or Drill

Author's Note: In this story we will learn that weather to drill or not to drill in Alaska's Wilderness.
 
I believe that we shouldn’t drill for oil in Alaska’s wilderness, because if we do drill there it will only decrease the foreign oil income by 4%. Also if we do it will destroy the environment. So I believe that we should not drill in Alaska’s Wilderness.

If we decide to drill in Alaska then it will cost billions to move equipment, ship the oil and to pay the workers. Even if it creates jobs then they will have to make more homes in the area for the workers and their families to live. When they are done drilling for oil then it will also take billions to move the materials back to where ever they got them from.

When they start to drill for oil in Alaska, then it will start to destroy their ecosystem. Plus all the animals and other things that live in the wilderness will start to die off; animals like elk, deer, bears, foxes and other animals die or move away because of the pollution. Also then the environment will start to be destroyed and they will lose some of their resources.

It will affect the people of Alaska because it will destroy some of their valuable resource. Some of the resources they will lose will be their water sources and fire wood. Also if people want to go out in the wilderness they can’t because they don’t have one.

Gunslingers Regret


Imagine a boy whose father dies trying to protect his own son. In this story of “The Dark Tower” by Stephen King, a man named Roland Deschain is following in his father’s footsteps by becoming a gunslinger. As he leaves his camp where he is being trained to become a warrior with his hawk, he knows that he needs to leave and find out what happened to his father. In this story the reader will learn about how sometimes things will happen for a reason.

In the town that Roland lives in it is a bad thing to become a gunslinger. He knows that he doesn’t want to become a gunslinger but he wants to get revenge on the man who killed his father. As he is trying to make his decision the man who is keeping watch over him is trying to kill him. That is when he makes his decision to become a gunslinger. This reminds me of when I was little my friend broke my favorite toy and so I was going to get revenge and break his toys.

His mother was never there when he was growing up so when he was growing up all he had was himself.  His childhood was hard because nobody could help if he was behind in school. As he went on through the years he struggled more and got better in school.
I can relate to this because I am having a hard time with school but I am trying my hardest to stay on topic.

In the end I believe that some certain things in life will happen for a reason good or bad. Even though his father died he still was fine.
