Sorry for the inconvince Sir.
Today at the Louvre, I was staring at this beautiful painting the Mona Lisa. Then suddenly this older lady approached me. I started out to have a nice conversation with the old lady. We  talked and got to know a little bit about each other. A fire broke out just as we started walking away from the Mona Lisa. So I had a choice, I had to pick between the older lady who was 92 and in a wheel chair, or I could pick the famous painting that was worth millions. I could not pick both sir; if I could I would have done so. This was a very hard decision for me. I was stuck in a dilemma; I could either take the famous painting, or let the old lady die in the fire. In the end I think I made the right decision. I grabbed the old lady and ran out of the building as soon as I could. I chose to bring the old lady out of the building instead of the painting, because the painting does not have a heart or a sole, and it would not know the difference, just because she is old does not mean that she should die, people are more important then paintings people have feelings and this old lady has a life and kids, and grandchildren that look up to her. The painting has nothing but people looking at it, and no matter how famous the painting was it is still not worth a life. The old lady now had a longer and better life, living it to the fullest.


Aging

                “You are older now than when you started reading this poem”

“Aging”, by Michelle Disser, discusses how you are always becoming older every second and you can never go back to the age you where. “Aging is a continual process”, life is going by so fast and you can’t slow it down in any way live life to the fullest.  “First you consider yourself lucky to see the large cat,” when you are younger you are always wanting to grow up to fast and wanting to become an adult right away but then you realize “it starts coming to quickly” your life is going by so fast “and you wish it to stop, to retreat”.  In this poem written by Michelle Disser is sums up how your life goes by so fast and you have no control over how fast you grow up.
 

Dead Poet Society

Bryson


Carpe Diem


The school of all boys and the freedom of living in a dorm in high school but it isn’t what it really sounds like.
Welton Academy is an all boy’s school where you go to school and only school, learning is your life and that is what you must do, is become the best that you can be and become capable of what you can do. The movie “dead Poets Society”, directed by: Peter Weir also indicates that At Welton Academy you learn about becoming a person as Mr. Keating comes in and takes over a teaching job and teaches the kids about poetry and explains to them how there are different ways of learning, mean while the professor of the school and the parents do not like the way this new teacher is making an impact on their kids life’s.


           One of the themes that Mr. Keating teaches his students in the movie is that you only live once and to take full advantage of the way you live. Mr. Keating coming in as a new teacher does a really good job and the students enjoy his teaching style he is fun and knows how to make school enjoyable instead of sitting in a class room all day, Mr. Keating explores different ways of learning. The students of Welton Academy discover new ways of becoming better students and participating in class as they set up a dead poet society. The Dead poet society is a group that the kids of Welton Academy formed the club is where you go and discus poetry…… RAN Out of time…

Summer Poem

A Sunny Afternoon

It loomed in front of me
                                  The birds are fresh in the air
                                                                    As the summer breeze flows through my hair
We all enjoy the summer fun
                                 Waking up not freezing
                                                                     Is just what I believe in 
The heat in the evening is still un be leaving
                                   The shade of dawn blankets me at night
                                                                      And the hot summer heat starts weakening
                                                 For the night
                                                                     Now I can’t wait for tomorrow
                                    As the sun begins to rise
And the heat beings to strike
                                     Not knowing the feeling
           Of what summer is really like
                                      But now its winter and we are freezing
                       Just waiting for the summer light
                                   On cool afternoons
                                      We believe in

Dear Santa This year in grade 11 has been one of the best years of my life it has been a really good experience at Princess Margret Secondary School.  This year I have been a good boy I have been doing all of my home work and listening to my parents, I have also been helping out around the house.  
I have been joining in the school activities and programs around the school. This year I am planning on joining the school rugby team we usually do very good and have a strong team. This year I have also been playing soccer in my local town Penticton B.C.

Santa since I have been such a good kid this year I would like to ask you for some new rugby cleats and a England jersey I think that I deserve this gift because I have been such a good boy.  In my stoking I would just like some little stuff like chocolate and gift cards.

Thank you Santa for your time on reading my letter I know you are a very busy man around this time of year. I appreciate it a lot thank you. Have a good Christmas and Enjoy 2011.
