Hey guys!

Yesterday i went to the grade 9 Orientation it was very helpful and really fun. My dad dropped me off at the main doors where i met with destiny. At first we couldn’t even get in the door there were so many people. We made are way to the door to  the gymnasium and all the lancer link students were in a two lines to lead us the tables with are name tags on them.  When all the nines were on the bleachers the link students stared to do a dance I’m watching and this girl in front of me in the bleachers get up and starts dancing. So she runs up and stars dancing with the group! In my head i would be like no way i could ever do that. Anyway so this guy starts talking to use about school and respecting education and rules. We did a few activities in the gym with the whole group of nines. After that we went to our groups to our lancer link leaders. No one i knew was in my group and i pretty well made friends with all of them. I had a very nice leaders Seth and Erin help us out with any questions we had about the school and activities that we might do in school as well so we did more fun games and stuff like that. Than they took us on a tour of the school i saw all my friends from good shepherd and zone central school. When the tour was done we had lunch of hot dogs, chips and pop. All the people i knew and some i just met hung out and ate under a random pine tree. When a few of my friends were done we went to find our lockers im glad because my locker is right by the main doors. After my dad showed up and i showed him my locker and introduced him to my lancer link leaders. After five hours of all this we went our way home. i would have to say that was a great day of experiences and i cant believe im saying this but im  very excited for high school now!

A tornado ripped through Brians camp knocking everything down and throwing everything in the the lake. thrown around by the wind he held his ground and the tornado passed. after an hour or so brian came out of his cave and looked around seeing every thing torn and thrown around. looked out to the lake and saw something sticking out of the lake. it was the plane tail. and the he remeberd that the plane has a survive pack. and he spent his day making a raft and cutting a hole in the tail end of the plane. He finally got a hole big enough to fit in and he crawled in and searched for the pack. a few more tyres and he found it under the chair. by the poilt. he froze he grabbed the pack and swim up to the hole and put it on the raft. when he got the pack he dragged it to camp tired from all day in the water he flopped down on the sand and fell asleep. in the morning he was tearing through the pack. he found pots, panes and a fork and a spoon. he was digging through and he felt a long barrel and he pulled out a gun with fifty shells. and he found a radio like thing and flicked a switch a few times but nothing happened and then he got to the food. he was making the food and then he herd a noise. a engine noise. a plane flew around and landed on the lake. brian was still staring at the plane. the man walks out of the plane and comes to brian. he said ” i herd your emergency transmitting. hey your that kid aren’t you! they stopped looking for you two months ago.” brian still staring at the man and asked ” would you like something to eat?”

the novel was very interesting and very adventure like. i would like to read the other book Brians winter. and i think that this author should write more books on survival and adventure.

Brian was awoken by somthing rumbing up aganst his leg. He kick is fericely only to get a giant jolt of pain in his leg and then threw the hatchet at it. He missed and the hatchet bouced up off a rock and on the the cave wall and the cave light up with sparks and he saw the pocepine waddle off. After he pulled the nedals out of his leg he fell asleep of exsotion. when he got up there was still some pain in his leg from the porcepine nedai. Remebering the sparks of last night he looked arond for the hatchet to find it by his leg and his panic vanished. then he went to study the wall of were the hatchet hit the wall. the cave wall was dotted with diffrent rocks it wasent long till he found the indent of the hatchet. then he thought. Fire. he could make a fire he ran out in the woods to look for wood. he found some tryed it but it was too thick then he remebered he saw the papper like bark from a tree he left the cave and went and got a fist full of the papper wood. He struck the rock and sparks flew onto the papper wood but non of the little sparks stayed light. so he thought the he had to make a bunch of little strings of wood . he spend at least an hour before he got a fist full of little wood strings. and struck one more time and the sparks stayed alit in the string wood. and by the end of the day he had a fire and the he relized he could make a signle fire on the top of the cave and light it when a plane flew by. while he was thinking he was intruped by a sound and was starled at first because it sounded it was draging somthing he stuck his head out and went to investagate the sound. he look on the beach to find a long streek in the sand. he saw some burred sand and it looked like it was burred reasntly. out of his couristy he dug up the sand and found food. it was a turtle egg about the size as a tennis ball. he towre through the lethery shell and hesntlely sucked out the youk and the with stuff around. his whole body tryed to push it back up but his stuomch took it. he had three untill his mind told him to save the eggs. there were 6 left. he took the rest back to the cave. He burred the rest of the eggs in the sand and went to sleep. when he got up he decided he should got and try to catch some fish. so he went to the lake and stood in the water and fish swam close to his feet and  he tryed to catch one with his hand but the fish were to fast. so he had to make a spear and look for good wood to use. after he went to find a good spear he took many tries and got frustrated. there too fast for him to spear them. he remeberd that water bends the spear so he aimed below the fish. and he got a mediem sized fish and he took it back to camp and ate it fish over the fire.

The point of view from which the story is being told is from Brian because it talks about what he’s gone through from his veiw when he caught a fish he said he was really happy. the main reason i think its from his point of view is because it dosent feel like its narated by someone else.

Brian has been very cerious about a lot of things and being curious has got him in good situations and bad ones to. and he learns from a lot of his mistakes.

hatchet activity 1

The story starts with a character named Brian. In the story he starts out in a plane because his parents got devoriced and is on his way to canada where his dad lives. And he remebed his mom gave him a hatchet and went back to day dreaming. The polit had a heart attack and died and brian is forced to fly the plane. After many cries for help on the radio Brian is forced to  crash land the plane when his hope was almost gone he found a little L shaped lake. Losing atatude fast he crashes into deep blue of the lake and swims away from the reackage to spend the night on the beach only to get attacked by a swarm or black flys and mosquitoes. After many hours of thirst and hunger Brian finds a log and swims off the bank of the L shaped lake. he took many gulps of the lake water and came back to shore and threw up the water. After many more hours he went looking around and just his like to find a little rock cave with a bedding of sand. He finds a bunch of logs but too weak to pick them up. So went to find berries to eat and found a bunch and would not stop shoving them in his mouth and went back to the  cave to finish the cave when he was done he went in a fell asleep.

brian the main character is 13 and has brown hair and is on his way to Canada to live with hid father for the summer and his mother for the school years because they recently  got devoiced.

the other character is a poilt and is fly brian to canada and died of a heart attack and is laying at the bottom of a lake.

The most important is when the pilot has a heart attack and brian is forced to fly and crash land the plane in the deep blue lake and must take action to make shelter and forage for food to survive.

what i think will happen next is that he will look for food and make a fire with his hatchet by smashing it on a rock to make a spark and will have a fire to cook the fish he finds and boil the water to has clean drinking water.

The words that stuck out the most are jesus, god, catholic, loving, faith and beliving. This was about my easay of Responsabilitys of a catholic citizen.

So mr.P asked us to write stuff about our book.

The book is called hatchet and the author is Gary Paulsen. its has about 19 chapters and 195 pages. so far the character is 13 and his name is Brian and he’s on a plane flying to Canada to his dad because his mom and dad got a divorce and he’s all sad and his mom gave him a hatchet on the way and the polite had a heart attack and he’s dead and now a 13 year old has to drive a plane. so far were on page 17 so i am not that far in the book and i’ll update this post every Friday till at least June. update you later!

The population of the 1800′s is growing a lot. Lower Canada seems to be more popular then upper. In 1814 the Population of Lower Canada, estimated at 335,000 and lower Canada estimated at 95,000. That’s just the beginning of Canada’s growth in 1860-61Population of Upper Canada was 1,396,091 And in 1860-61 the Population of Lower Canada was 1,111,566. Its give you a good idea of how the population grew. Now  the population of Canada is approximately 33,100,000. That’s a lot of people!

 Hope and angels

A world full of fear

With lots of hardship and sorrow

But there is always hope near

And the angles of god will soon follow.

Why

The love of my life

Put three bullets in my chest

And threatened to stab me with a knife

Is a good thing I was wearing a bullet proof vest

Beautiful Night

Free Verse

Her eyes are like stars

Her smile is like the sun

Her voice is smooth like the milky way

She is beautiful like the night sky.

Light to darkness

Your eyes are light to darkness

Your smile brings hope to the hopeless

Your personality brings help to the helpless

Your humor brings laughter to the laughed

Your kindness brings the world to peace

You’re the light in the darkness

You’re the hope that shines in the dark

The death of the world

Is very soon to come to earth

But there is always hope

There once was a man

Who owned a huge steel frying pan

He used it for bacon

Joy In Life

I lived my life with happiness and joy

And yes I’m talent, smart and a good looking boy

And she is so beautiful with hope in her eye

When I’m with her I feel like I could fly

So we will sail the stars

And see Saturn, Jupiter, Pluto, and Mars

Grace

Time is running out you see

The ending is coming for me

But life has treated me well

With her beauty and her spell

So I will leave this place

 with hope and grace

Hardship

It doesn’t even matter how hard I try

If it wasn’t for you my skies wouldn’t be blue

poerty podcast

Life…. Happiness, joy, laughter….… hatetred, death and sorrow. Kinda two paths to life. Yellow brick road and red brick road choices choices hmmm… What on earth are u waiting for chose happiness! No come to the dark side we have cookies. Well I would chose the orange path well cause it’s half and half life is not suppst to be happy all the time or you would practicaly go insane with happy and you don’t want to be sad all the time eather just depressing that’s why the orange path is the best. You get a taste of both side see the joy in life and see what unexpected things might be at your door. And some of life you may not like but have to put up with it. Life’s, life make what you can of it right.
