Reed had made her way back into Billings. Billings was a fraternity that they voted Reed out of because of Sabine. As They all had fled on there way to the Carribean they all informed Reed about the island that they were staying on and what kind of fun they were going to have. The first thing that everyone talked about was " the Upton game".Upton was gorgeous guy who went down to the island and this was a tradition to play.

#7 Change

Bella the main character in Twilight, Experiences a lot of change. Moving to a town in Washington that isn't the greatest town ever from Arizona. A nice sunny warn place. I think that we can agree that not everyday you go running around with a vampire. Bella goes from being no one so someone. When she lived in Arizona, she was nobody. In forks Washington, she is somebody. all eyes are on her. She goes from seeing her mom everyday and talking heart to hear to moving in with a cop who really doesn't know how to have a deep conversation with anybody for that matter. Another major change for Bella swan is her being chased by vampires and having to run every second of the day, having someone who wont let you out of there sight and is way over protective but its for the better.

Narnia

So today i was reading The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe by: C.S. Lewis. i was reading the part where edmund comes back from the white witch when the men from aslands side takes him back. Edmund realizes how stupid and foolish it was to take the white witchs side and put his familey in danger. when the white witch capturs edmund, the family realizes that even though they dont like edmund sometimes , hes still there brother and they care about him. i think what the author is trying to tell us here is that Edmund makes a stupid mistakes but things happen and ppl make mistakes and thats how we get through life is by learning about what we did when we made those mistakes and not doing them again. it makes life easyer.

Gary Paulson

In Gary Paulsons book -Guts, He tells his storys of the hardships that he has been through with nature and the real world. In the certain story i read was about a man in his Early fiftys who lived on a ranch. Paulson was working as a volunteer for the firedepartment as the emergency vehicle technition. Pualson said he got the call mid afternoon when a woman said her husband was having chest pains. Pualson raced to the ranch. as soon as he got there the man was at the kitchen table holding his left arm. Gary went to help the man but a suddon jolt hit him and fell on the floor. Gary went to do CPR and once again a jolt hit him. Gary knew the man was dead but didnt give up. When Gary writes these passages i think he wants us to know that life isnt just a bunch of rainbows and butterflys. Things happen and thats just the way it is.
