Hero

"a hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles."

                                                                                                               -Christopher reeve

 

   I think this quote is motivating many people that want to achieve their goals and because of many things that stop them that's why they probably cant overcome their obstacles and they get stuck and never give it their try. they are stuck in that one spot because they don't see the other side of the wall they just give up and stop trying when they are really close to complete their goals and overcome their obstacles.

 I agree with Christopher reeve because yes people do over come their obstacles when they work hard and they don't give up on what they are trying to accomplish.

in my family my parents are the heroes of the house and my heroes because they are really hard working people. They make everything look so easily and make the best for the family. Thats why my father and my mother are my heroes because they do everything for us to be good and always with our head up high.

Power

Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a mans character give him power.
this means that anyone can have power but it can be used in many ways and can come with consequences.I agree with this quote because i think anyone should have the right of doing
anything legal and not illegal because that always turns out bad. This can be clearly seen in
and throughout the book cause he is smart and not afraid of anything that could stop him.
Danny has the power to commit even more robberies, fighting more men without a reason
and even shooting someone.

i am

 I am Danny

I am smart and strong.
I wounder what happens if i loose the house.
I hear rumors about the war.
I see the fear in some soldiers.
I want to the violence.
I am strong and intelligent.

I pretend to be a weak soldier.
I feel the fear in me.
I touch the broken furniture.
I worry the loss of the house.
I cry if i loose my grandmas house.
I am never weak or brittle.

I understand the consequences of loosing my grandmas house.
I say that I should always stay strong.
I dream that the house stays.
I try to never stay weak.
I hope to keep being strong.
I am never weak.

The Book

Tortilla flat is mainly about the main character named Danny.
He has to to move into a small house left to him by his grandmother after the first World War.
The theme of this book is power because it has to do with war
and there is a lot and all kinds of power in any type and kind of war.
My prediction of what is going to happen in this book is that Danny
might loose the house for a reason.

Pet Panda

In December 28, 2097,there was three friends who lived in Rome,Ga. They had to live everyday by working and putting effort to keep living. They worked together in the same job,they had to clean the roads and make sure that they stay clean. Dante,Vergil and Leo wanted to buy a pet panda. They didn't have the money for it though. They didn't know the consequences of having a pet panda. They thought it was going to be easy taking care of it. They didn't have enough money for it either so each of them saved a little bit each just t get the pet they wanted. When they had enough for it/ they didn't want to buy it anymore so they came up with a plan. They wanted to steel the panda from the zoo so they could sell it and get some extra money. They just wanted the panda in the first place so they could sell it and have money to buy drugs and alcohol.
