Brick House

Ive always thought of my perfect house. The house that I will live in for the rest of my life. The perfectly beautiful house that I will raise my future 3 kids. One girl and 2 Boys. The house where I will host Christmas for all my family. I would have to live in a brick house. If it's not red brick I'm not buying it. It has to be 3 floors. A basement, that will have carpet even though I know it will be hard to keep clean, where the kids will play. The main floors where the kitchen, living room and dining room will be. All dark hardware floors. The stair lead up to the bed rooms. There must be at least 3 bed room, maybe even 4. If there are 3 rooms the 2 boys will get the second biggest room since they will be sharing of course. The master bedroom will be of course for my husband and I. The 3rd room will be for the girl. There will be 2 bathrooms. One on the main floor and one on the second floors. I want to have one cat or one dog. Maybe one of each! Also need a garage for my future perfect car! (:

Whatever Happened to Janie?

The sequel to The Face on the Milk Carton; spoilers may be ahead

   How did the Springs family go through what they did? How could they possibly go 12 years knowing their little girl might be in a ditch somewhere dead, or alive and being tortured? How would it affect them to know that she was alive and happy? This book is from the perspective of both Janie and Jodie, Jennie Springs older sister. If you wish to find out how the Springs and Johnsons both take this life changing situation in you should read "Whatever Happened to Janie?".
   This mystery series has got to be one of the best I've read by far. Once you read a couple of pages you will be hooked in by the mystery of Jennie Springs sudden disappearance. There's one problem after another. Janie is a just a teenager who was suddenly pushed into a swirl of different emotions and life changing situations. There were definitely moments in the book where I thought to myself what I would do. There is also a third, fourth and even a fifth book to the series! The next book in the series is called "The Voice on the Radio". I also recently found out there is a movie! I will definitely be watching the movie, after I finish reading the series of course!

75% To Go

Quarter one. Ahhh some good memories, some bad, some mixed emotions and.. wait what am I even saying Quarter one went amazing! There were sometime where I might have been tired and not been playing much attention but I always caught up. I'm pretty happy with my grades, I've worked hard to get them and I'm proud I guess you could say. I also have a test in ELA that no matter how many time I redo it I keep getting 7/10! So I guess you could say that's kind of a bummer. Besides that Quarter one wasn't really hard and I really enjoyed it. I didn't really join any clubs. I told myself I would join Cross Country and Me to We. I didn't join Cross Country because I didnt have my physical, and I just keep forgetting that Wednesdays after school is Me to We!

Book to Movie (The Outsiders)

Similarities
These are some similarities from the film and the novel. The drive in movie scene was almost exactly the same as it was written in the novel. While watching the movie I even recognized some of the same lines that were said between Cherry and Dally. Another thing that was similar between both was Johnny's death scene. Right before Johnny died he pulled Ponyboy close and said “Stay gold Ponyboy, stay gold”.

Differences
These are some differences between the movie and the novel. In the novel it only mentions Ponyboy having a dream in the past, but in the movie he has a dream everytime he falls asleep. Another thing is that in the beginning of the novel he gets beat up by socs, but in the beginning of the movie he just walks around town with Johnny and Dally. One last thing that was different was when Dally got shot by the cops and died, the Greasers were already with him, but in the movie the greasers got there as he died.

Evaluation
One big thing that really bothered me about the movie was they didn't involve Sodapop in the movie as much as they did in the novel. Johnny wasn't anything like what I thought he would look like in the movie, but overall I think the director choice good characters for The Outsiders. Another character I was iffy about in the movie was Marcia. She looked nothing like I thought she would look and it's the same thing with the personality. I also wasn't really happy with who they chose the play Bob.

IT

    The movie IT was great!! I can't believe some people don't like it. Sure there might not be as many jump scares as there was anticipated in the trailer but it was still great. They did an amazing job really giving a lot of detail about the main characters (the losers club). One of my personal favorite characters is Richie Tozier. I love this characters sense of humor, and we can relate because one of my own biggest fears are clowns too. That's not the only reason why I love Richie so much but it is also because he is played by Finn Wolfhard. One of my favorite actors of all time. He is an extraordinary actor, playing huge roles like in Stranger Things as Mike or in IT playing Richie. He also had a small part in Supernatural in season 11 episode 5. Finn Wolfhard is also my celebrity crush. HINT, HINT, he's only 14 just like me!



Equality

         One of my favorite quotes and one of the most memorable quote ever to me is from Eminem. Eminem might not be known as the kindest person ever but this quote kinda relates me to.

 "I don't care if you're black, white, straight, bisexual, gay, lesbian, short, tall, fat, skinny, rich or poor. If you're nice to me, I'll be nice to you. Simple as that." -Eminem

I really love this quote because it's saying that no matter who you are, or where you are from I will treat you the same way you treat me. There's no big racist or sexist meaning behind why I treat you the way I do. It's just treat me the same you want to be treated. Hey, that connects to an old quote that I remember hearing all the time in elementary.

"Treat others the way you want to be treated"

Both of those quotes are basically the same. It's just the first quote by Eminem has more details.

Bug Cereal


When I was about 8 years old when I decided that today, I would eat cereal for breakfast. I would soon regret this decision. I got my bowl, spoon and milk. Future me is screaming "Don't pick up that cereal!" but of course I still chose.... Cinnamon... Toast.. Crunch. I'll never even see it coming. I turned on the T.V. to spongebob and began digging in. Yum, yum, yum, crunch, crunch, crunch. Oh no.. As I looked down there it was. A bug. A dead bug.
    I ran to the bathroom as fast as I could  and I threw it all up. All of it. I was forever scared after that. It was almost as that moment I found the bug was engraved into my mind. It took me a couple of months after that to eat cereal. Cinnamon Toast Crunch alone took me 6 years. Even now 6 years later I hate bugs and always will.

10 years from now..


   Ten years from now I wanna live in Seattle, for sure without a a doubt. Its always kinda chilly and raining in Seattle. Which is great because love the rain. Long sleeves, jackets, and sweaters are always my favorite and are also my go to's so its kinda easier to wear those when its cold. Specifically I wanna live in a red brick apartment building. I've always loved brick and especially red brick. The building also has to allow pets. If not dogs atleast a cat or ferret.
  I will be living with my best friend or future boyfriend. I will also own a cat and dog. Both from a shelter. If the building doesn't allow either of those I wanna own a ferret. I've always thought those were cute. I will also eventually want kids but that's 15 or 16 years in the future not 10. When I do have kids though I want one boy and one girl ideally. The boy will be named Barry or Charlie. The girl will be named Georgie, Penelope, or Meredith.
  For my job I want to be a math teacher, peds surgeon, or astronomer. I would want to be a math teacher because I really love math and it just always has really interested me so I would love to help people learn more of it. I would want to be a peds surgeon because I love children and I would love to help and save their life. I would love to become an astronomer to study and help discover more things about outerspace.
   Obviously in 10 years I wanna be done with college. I want to and hopefully will be able to go to Boston College. This is where my sister went and ever since I visited 2 years ago for her graduation Ive been determined to go there. It'll take a lot of work but it'll be worth it all in the end.
