A New Holiday

Dear Local Government,

Many people feel as though there should be a new holiday. I propose that the new holiday should be a holiday where Kids or Children are celebrate for there hard working and giving back to there communities. The name of the holiday would be "Bring Forth The Children."The main purpose is to Celebrate children that are hardworking, they want to better themselves and there community, they plan to have a future for themselves when they become adults.

I feel as though this holiday should be in August. In the summer time because then the children wouldn't be in school and wouldn't have to worry about taking school days off for this holiday. Many children would love this and would be happy that they have a day to get together with friends. I love children and this event would be a harmless free event  where parents don't have to worry about there children getting harmed.

I would be the President of this "Bring Forth The Children" event. People that love to voluteer to help set up such as parents of this communtiy. I would make it so that everyone that wants to help can come. But people that don't have a purpose of helping up and celebrating kids are not invited and I would have secruity there to make sure. Voluteers would have a braclet that says voluteer and every kid that enter the event would also have a braclet saying "I am a leader." So secruity  would know who should be there. I would invite a celebrities and  guess speakers to provide entertainment. I would aslo invite First Lady and the President.

This celebration would be helded at Park were there be alot of space and area for children to let all the pressure of there chest and have fun. The park would have alot of activites and bounce houses for the baby's at the event. I would have a plastic gate around the park so that the kids wouldn't wonder around and get lost also for secrutity reasons.

The people that are voluteers and helping would help me set up the decrotions around the park. The theme color would be a rainbow to brighten up the day. The kids have to eat so I would buy the food for them I would make sure that they are all fat by the time they leave. It would be a variety of foods from all types of cultures. The kids could wear anything to the event costumes ofr there favorite outfit. But the voluteers and helpers would have to wear rainbow shirts and jeans. The activities would be set up by me and secruity to make sure it's safe for the children.



                                                                                       Sincerely,

Putting It All Together

"Alvin it's time." My new great close friend Aaron Martin called for me.

As I walk to my boss/co-worker I start ti think how I been waiting on this time to come.I was offically ready to go investigate this whole situation. People on a island disppearing. I couldn't believe what was happening. My ears were listening, my mind full of pictures like a photo album.

"This is your last time to drop this investigation," my boss explained.
"I want to go. This is my job an it consist of life or death situations."
"Alright man, I'm going to inform your wife. I hope to see you alive my wife."
"I hope so too. But if not tell my wife I love her and watch after her."

The whole time I was on the boat there news cameras were going.My heart beat faster than a Nascar race. Once we got to the island my parnter was taking notes. The words I saw were:

"He tied his boat off and started to climb the cliffs. He knew that no one had lived to tell what was behind the cloud, but still he climbed."

 

He told me I was a man full of courage to take my own life because of my job. I listen but I also didn't because he forgot he was hire for the same reasons as I was. So I climb the mountain to the top. All you could see were lights that were bright like the gates of heaven were opening up just for me. It was so beautiful. There  were alot of people they were all dress in white. I felt welcome to be there at that moment. They came and they treated me like royality.

 

"WAIT!" I screamed.

 

Then, reality hit me. It was a volcano and if I took one more step I would of been dead like the rest. I had a dream for a mintue that brought me back to were I was at in that moment. But what would of happen to me if I fell in I would become an angle.

 

"Honey!" I heard my wife yell.

"WAKE Up your having a dream my love," I still hear her voice.

"Baby." I hug her so tight.

"Are you okay." she asked.

"I'm going to be fine right here with my family."

 

This is a story of Alvin Keller who traveled to a volcano island were most people don't return from. He was the first man to ever to return back from the island alive. My name is Aaron Martin ABC new reported  for most ridiculous dreams ever.

 

 

 



Are Pictures Reallly Worth 1,000 words?

 

Describe: What do you see?

In this picture there are five hearses. There is a lot of people outside. There is a lady standing next to one of the hearses. There are people with flowers. There is a rose on the ground. Also there is a flag on the ground with many poles as if there is more than one flag down. There’s a guy trying to put the flowers on top of the fourth hearse. There are flags on top of the caskets. On all of the caskets there are United Kingdom flags. There are spectators watching. An people walking away from the crowd of people. I see all white people in the picture. I see the lady reflection in the car. Also three cracks in the street. There are a lot of adults and not that many children or teens. There are people with their mouths open and some are close. Some people look mad their self’s like they should have never let their love one go to war.

Analyze: What is happening?

In this picture I think that the hearses are driving to the grave site. But I think that the hearse had stop because of the lady that ran out towards the hearse. The lady at the hearse is kissing it and is crying to here love one that died which is a private soldier in Wooton Bassett, England. Her cousin is one out of seven soldiers that pass in the war. The people standing around in watching are people that knew the soldiers that past and had come to pay respect to their soldiers. Some people look surprise or don’t believe what is going on right now or what are going to happen in the future. The people that are walking away are people that don’t care or it’s too much pain from watching the soldiers go. So many people in shock like they are hoping that there love haven’t past. There are people with shades on so I’m guessing that they are crying and try not to show it in front of a crowd of people.

Predict: What is GOING to happen?

What I’m predicting is going to happen is the people are going to walk with the hearses and watch the soldiers get buried at their grave site. I think the lady at the car is going to keep crying all during the funeral service and all the way to the grave site. The funeral service is going to be sad with a lot of people are going to be crying about of their lost love ones and friends and even enemies. I think that the soldiers that were lost at war are going to be replace with other soldiers that are advance enough to be put in that rank. Soldiers are going to be replace with recruits. I think that the army soldiers are going to always remember the soldiers that were lost in the war. And that their families are going to always have a piece of their love one in their heart somewhere and the memories will never be lost but remember in their everyday life. I also believe that if the lady that at the car with her cousin is going to take care of his family or be the other figure or role model in his children’s life especially if there mother isn’t in the picture. I believe that every single person that is watching this happen is going to remember the day and place and time when this event happening and how it effect there country and economy in some many ways. And the people life’s would change and have a reality check about their self’s before they die or if they believe in god before they go home to be with their lord. Some of the soldiers that are friends with the soldiers that pass away are going to feel guilty or feel like they should have been died of their friend because they the mistake.

 

Saving Our Daughters

November 2012

 

 

My son is going to killed if he doesn't change his lifestyle. My daughther she will be good I still have time to change her ways of thinging. My daughter will learn from her mistakes in life. Theses are the thoughts of our parents in society today. My name is Aaliyah Banks an I live in Atlanta, Georgia.

 

Down here in ATL also known as Atlanta the population is 432,427. All types of people live here in the Peach State such as African-Americans, Hispanics, and on the rich side of town the Whites. Georgia is the country its called that because the people here have all types of ascents. So you never know what to expect when you come here to vistor or become apart of our community.

 

 

June 2006

My mother just died and all you have to say to me is you have to move on lee-lee.

"Think about it what are you going to do here you are only ten years old," Auntie Grace was tryin to explain, "you can't  stay here by yourself."

"You can take me."

"No I Can't."

"Why do I have to go to Atlanta with a grandmother I never met."

"I don't have to explain anything to you young lady," She was being rude," Your bags are pack now get in the car.

Now I'm 10 years old. I can't make any of my own choices. This is the worst thing that could ever happen. I'm going to make this a living nightmare. My mother’s died and my aunt says too me move on that's my mother, your sister. I wonder what she was thinking as she said thoses words to me. I would never forget it. It replays in my mind for months.

We just arrived at my grandmothers and this is what my aunt says to me before I get out the car:

 

Remember that I'm here for you. I always will be because I'm your aunt. Now, I’m sorry for saying you need to move on but if your mother was here she would tell you that she making sure you don’t be like her when she was laying on her death bed. You are going to have to live here with your grandmother because that’s was your mothers last wishes before she left earth. You are to respect to her. Listen to her. And you do whatever she asks because she’s an old woman and even though you don’t know her you need to get to know her. And she would like to meet you. So show her some love. Ms. Banks I love you young lady and if you ever need me call me.

Those were the last words I heared from my aunt. She had started doing drugs cause she wasn't moving on with the fact with my mother dieing. My mother was the boldest woman and she was the best mother. 





 August 2006

 

Its been two months and all I can remember about my mom is the way she left my spirit in people by the way she describe me to people such as to long lost grandmother. My grandma is an short African-Amercian woman in her 60's. My grandma told me that she was told that I was a beautiful girl with long wavy hair with my mothers nice hazel brown eyes. I was tall with with braces and I always weared the newest trends in fashion. She was also told I wanted to become a fashion judge like Tyra Banks but the new name in the fashion world would be Aaliyah Banks. Its funny we both have the same last name but I bet I can make a better fashion statement.

 

My grandma sent me to this program Saving My Daughter. Its a program in ATL were they help young woman such as myself to get over the passing of a family member or friend. I went there everyday for about two hours a day. I would go right afterschool than my grandmother would pick me up. I only had to go there for threes months and then I would graduate for the program.

 

Saving My Daughter program was a nice program I loved it. It gave me something to think about other than my mother. It help me see that my mother wasnt the only one who can give my courage and tell me I was beautiful.

 

 

 

 

 

June 2012

 

I now work at Saving My Daughters. I help the young ladys and I have conversations with them. I just listen and I dont do that much talking because  I wish that was what they had did when I was in the program but here my update on my life:

 

Its been 6 years and I still go to visit my mom grave. I wish she was here but my grandmother tought me that when my  mother died she was heaven. An now that I'm save I be there right there when I die Im now 16 years old I got to Lincoln High School as a Junior. I pass my PSAT with good scores from my grandmother keeping my head up and giving me courage to learn that life moves on. An thoughts and meomories stay for your lifetime.

 

Now, my long lost grandmother is my love of my life. She still staying strong in my life and positve remodel. My aunt I saw last year for christmas. I wanted to give her a boot and tell her to keep walking but I love her too. As for my mommy she left in my heart and never to be forgoten.  

 

 

 

 



 

Hurricane Sandy Move Out The Way!!!!

Before Hurricane Sandy

I was ready for Halloween. I was going costume shopping with my little sister and brother. It was a normal day just a little cloudy day in October. I was ready for Halloween man I had in my mind I was going to be pippy longstockings since I love wearing colorful socks and all. I was waiting to get all good grades since the mid marking period grades was alright even though I wanted it a little bit higher than what was report to me on parent teacher conference. In about two weeks the marking period grades closes and I am going to be on honor roll. Track is about to start man im about like mario or packman you AINT CATCHING ME...

Hurricane Sandy Here Yes!!!!

Me and My grandmother were watching the news. Its October 29th the day were the news people will be really wrong about Sandy being so strong. They need to stop gassing it up like that. I thought cause nothing was happening. But that night it got real. I was a little kid again I got scared and close my eyes and prayed. I couldnt see out the window. All I could see was colors I thought I was going blind and to let you know I dont wear glasses so that was a problem for me. Next thing, I know i was laying in the bed under the covers an was ready for the world to end. An if it was to end and I was to die I want to die in my sleep so I would be in peace.

REALLY SANDY??? WHY YOU DO ALL OF THIS TO OUR STATE??

I think that sandy was a reality check. She made me realize that the world should learn to spend time with family and realize that eletronics are a habit that is bad and one of the reasons why we are far away from family and closer to our social life. Also,  not to take everything for granite. So I was thank for another day of life and my day was going to be great cause I was closer to family and nothing could stop us from bonding with one another.

The Joy Of Life

“So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.”

1) Explain what Chris means in this selection in your own words. Was he right or wrong?
 

I think Chris means that people live there life with so much depression. As the saying goes "Live life to the fullest," Chris means the opposite that people do not consider the happiness and joy of life but of the pain or hurt of life. He is correct to me. There are so many people that sre not happy with life and the way they live there life.

2) In what ways did Chris embrace and then exemplify these beliefs?

He embrace these belief by actually living in nature. I feel as though he wanted to get a clear outter look on life without material things and go on a adventure that would take him  on a life long journey. He wanted to feel responsible and independant on his own and to me  go on with the challenges that life brings on his own.

3) How has your life been conditioned to a life of security, conformity and conservatism? If you could meet Chris, what do you think he would specifically question about your life? What do you think he would encourage you to do?

I believe that my life has been condition to live in security, conformity and conservatism. I think Chris would ask me what type of life I live? Do I live being a materialistic person? If I would come out of my realistic life and take on a adventure? I think he would ask questions to see if we have anything in common with him. I think he would encourage me to live my life and go through changes even if it don't seem like I could make a living in that environment. Also, encourage  me to enjoy nature and all it has to bring to life.

Poems Related To Alex Supertramp Life

As stated in the poem to the left:

       The Stream of Life

"Life... the essence of living

To breathe, to nourish, to create,

To exist on a common plan

And known  no difference.

What if the world was this simple?

Thet the greatest life achievement.

The richest reward one could give

Was to reap and bestow love.

The water falls from the skies,

Nourishes the land, the living growth,

We shelter from its harshness,

And sweeten our lips with delight.

We taste of love in the same manner

Why do we not dance to the tune so simple

And seek for nothing else?"



 



By: Lubka M. Novak

 

 

This is one of the poems I think Alex Supertramp would like. I think this poem means that why be bother with the hard times in life when life comes so easy. Also, how many things in the world are to bring people down.

 

One of the reasons I believe he would like it is because it deals with nature. Alex loved the nature. He survives in the wildness. In this poem it shows how the author thinks that life is simple without material things. Alex also believe that  there is no need of material things while living in nature's wilderness.

Personal Experience

August 10,2012- AIRPORT

I am so excited! Man i can't WAIT. My first trip out of the U.S. I had my bags pack 2 days ago. My mom still can't believe I'm really doing this going to a safari. Wildlife here comes your bride. "Mom, I be back," I explain to her, "It's not like I'm going to die." " your my first daughter an the craziest person on earth to want to see real life animals." I could hardly think about how  much my mom was worried. Only thing i could think of is that i had to get on the plane in 10 mintues."Dad, pklease keep mom's mine off of me while I'm gone. I'm going to call you when i reach Africa and then 2 days after each call i make. HAHA you always tought me to save my money.""I will try. I hope you find that crazy side of your mind over there and then want to come back to reality.""I love you guys come here hugs and kisses.

ON THE PLANE

Man it smell like feet. I should of never been cheap this not even continential it's something i got out of the book "Dummies Cheap Flights." I needed some first class service. I couldn't understand why people bring baby's on a plane all they want to do is sleep, eat, and cry when they dont get there way. So you know there was a baby on the plane cause you could smell the diaper when you first took your step on the royal blue flooring. 15 hours later. I'm getting off the plane waiting for the guy that holds a sign saying BRIANNA JONES to take me to my desination. But I get off the plane to realize they spell my name wrong."Omg, that is not how you spell my name sir.'' "Sorry." Now many of people say I was rachet but I wasnt because if it  was your name it would be the same way.

SAFARI

 

Im rubbertramping  now like Alex McCandless would say in the book "Into the Wild." His book is my survival guide. Man, Im about the luckiest person on earth. "My namen is Kevin and I would be your tour guide of Kenya Safari." He seems happy. He was young about in his mid-20's a college student I would say. He was Black with nice eyes hazel to be exact. He was tall. But the most ugly part of him was his sike it had so many marks and brusies. Later on, My feet were about to die. I might not make it to see my mom." Theses are loins," he told me. My eyes jump look at Kevin and wanted to say take me home Im not about this life. I wanted to run but Kevion had whisper if you run your a died female. I told him he needed to feed his animals. So when I finally got back to my camp out. I went  to sleep and wish that when I woke up Im home back to reality.

PACKING TO GO BACK HOME

                                                                              I guess I've acheive my goal. Lost my fear of animals that seem to be "oh D!" large in my case. I learn to also apprecite the fact of my living conditioning. I saw so many people there that were hungry and trying to provide for there family's. I learn storys about girls in Africa that get rape. An there is  no lae enforement over here. Before I catch my flight to go back to home I'm donating the rest of my money to charity. The animals were kind but not caring. You could tell that the moneys were ahppy in there habitat jumping form tree to tree. I felt asthough I sghould have join them and it would of been like Tarzan again just with a different name Tarzana. Well, today would be the last day for me writing in this journal.

Into the Wild

 
Safari- East Africa
 

1. Where are you going? Why? Where is it on a map?

I’m planning my trip to the East part of Africa. One part of Africa that I want to see is the Safari. Which is located in Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda part of Africa. A Safari is a jungle or a wildlife environment. People go to Safari’s to view, for photographing, and experiencing animals in their natural habits. A main reason why I would like to go is because I love animals. Many people who come to my house say that it’s Dr. Dolittle’s House. I had about every type of animal or pet you could think of. So, I think this would be a nice experience for me. Africa is on the Eastern part of the map. Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda is on the east part on the continent of Africa.




2. How long will you be traveling?

It would take me an hour to get to New York from New Jersey. Then it takes 15 to 16 hours to get to Africa from New York. So thats like already for 3 fourths of my day. So I would just round that to a day. So I would to travel around Africas Safari for 15 days.
 
                                                                                 
3. How do you plan to travel? (car, hitchhiking, train, walking, biking, etc.) Why are you choosing this mode of transportation?

I would like to ride in the car on my drive to New York. Then from New York catch a flight (also known as a plane) to Kenya, Africa. I choose that type of transportation because that would be the best way for I have two reasons. First reason, is because I'm still a teenager so I can’t walk because I don’t know my way to New York or to Africa. Second reason, is because I don’t like to walk for really long distances. If I did any other type of transportation than I wouldn't be able to carry that much supplies I would need for my trip.

 


4. What will you need for your trip? How are you going to provide food/traveling expenses while you're on the road?

What I would need for my trip is a 15 day supplies of food ,and something to drink also. Next I would have to pack these materials ( 7 pairs of shoes such as sneakers- rain boots, 21 tops, and  21 bottoms, my jewelry box, tooth bush, tooth paste, wash cloth, body wash, soap, my hair products.) I would provide all these things by using my life savings.

5. What do you want to accomplish on this trip (i.e. Chris wanted to survive in the Alaskan wild)
Somethings I would like to acccomplish on this trip is getting use to wildlife. Something like getting to know how animals interact with one others in there habits. How there living conditions are in the wildest. Another thing, is to help me to have the courage to face wild animals and lose that fear of mines. Also, to get to know a different part of the world.

 6. How will you record your experiences?I  would record all my experiences by Journal writing and mental meories of my time in the Sarfari of East Africa. Also, by snaping pictures of anmials and there habits.

BLOGS Trends

       This is one of the funny things I got off this website: http://www.e-junkie.info/2012/09/funniest-tumblr-blogs-lough-out-loud.html. This blog I like because it has funny links to kept people laughing. One thing I love to do is laugh so thats why I like it so much.

Think Different

       I think that the narrator was talking about how if your unique in your own way thats how you become known in the world. Also, how you could start makin a difference in society.Do I agree with narrator? I agree with his because look at entertainment today. For example, if your auditoning to become a singer the judges are looking for different or unique voices in entertainment today.Second, if there wasn't any variety in today's society or people who are different there wouldn't be anything to set apart the human race.
