tonight I had my band concert. but the thing I felt was going to be a disaster, was the boogie blues feature. my heart was half way into my throat. my stomach was filled with butterflies with monster size wings, flapping and making my stomach wave. very song we had done, we got closer to the feature. I got dizzier and dizzier, and not because it takes lots of breath for a flute and makes you feel dizzy. when we got to the feature, the butterflies in my stomach tripled and my stomach felt like a butterfly facility. then... I did it! it was perfect!! all this time i was freaking out for nothing!

here is my instrument:

8. if you were stranded on a deserted island, which charectar from the book would you like to have with you and why?

Answer: I would take Daniel because he is very cleaver. he is cleaver because when he had to steal back his dead father's solider's notes, he pretended to start a fire with smoke and hay, tell his masters that there is a fire (he is a slave), grab the notes from a secret place, hide them, and tell everyone that it was just some smoke and nothing serious. And the cool thing about all of that is that he didn't get caught! at least not for a long time. I would also take Daniel because he is smart. he is smart because he found out that he was going to be sold to the West Indies by hiding in the hay on the boat, and over hearing the captain talk to his son about how he would sell Daniel. but Daniel found a way to escape from being a slave and separated from his mother. he still had the notes and he could trade the notes for money to buy his freedom and his mother's too.

when mr.Jospeh talked to us about how he knows how African American students feel now that we express our feelings, all I thought about was my great Great great great great grandmother who lved during slavery. she was a strong black woman who never have up. just because she was a slave, doesn't mean she was ashamed of herself. her name was charity butler. she was a run away slave. she moved up north and began to make her way to victory! she owned 42 acres of land and made the bets of it! I just wish I could see her one day. I've seen pictures of her when she owned the land, I thought she would look happy that she was free, but she had a straight face in every pic. I learned that it is her culture to not smile in a picture, and that she was very happy to be free. I knew she HAD to be happy, because I saw that sparkle in her eyes. her eyes were filled with joy, even with a straight mouth and eyebrows.

Yesterday I went to the flower show at the eastern market. i went with my mom and my god mom.  I wasn't really engaged in the flowers, i was hooked on the amazing smell of elephant ears! they had a hotdog stand, phili cheese steak stand, taco stand, slushy stand, ice cream stand, and last: an elephant ear stand. i bugged my mom about the elephant ears all day. She said i could get one as long as i looked for flowers, but it was going to be hard top concentrate  on  anything with the cinnamon smell rushing to your nose! Finally i got one when we had lunch at at an outdoor cafe. i had a lot more than an elephant ear. i had a taco salad inside of a dorito bag ( the doritos were the taco bread), i also had a smoothie with avocado, lemons,lime,honey, and bananas. The last thing i ate was the elephant ear because my mom said: " you can't have a pound of sugar on sweet bread as a lunch!" But you have to save the best for last!

"Chloe, there is a rat in my room! Mom told you to clean it or you will be sleeping outside! Better start packing up!" My stuck up step sister screeched. Hi I am Chloe. I live with my step mother and my step sisters, Britney and Samantha. They are so obnoxious and self centerd they make me feel like dirt. Not saying that I didn't already feel like dirt. My dad died in the army, so I went to live with his second wife, my step mom, veronica. My mom died giving birth to my brother. But he died  two days after birth. So ever sense, I have been thinking of how happy i would be with my real family. But i don't have time for that. I have been planning on getting an acedemic scholarship to Harvard. So i have to keep my head in the game. right now im on my way to school. Veronica was convinced that having me driving in the car with dumb and dumber, would ruin their glow that took them two hours in the bathroom doing. so I'm on the bus. "hey Chloe, whatcha doing?" maddie asked me. maddie is my best friend. we have been friends since 2nd grade. now we're in 12th grade, ready to fly off on our own, to college. I wonder if we will make it through college together. "oh nothin, just day dreaming" I reply. "well, don't sit there! what were you dreaming about?!" I look away trying not to reveal the secret with a clear tone. "the Halloween dance." I muffle into my jacket. "why? it's just a dance. it's not like anybody will ask you to go. the bus comes to a complete stop. i grab my backpack and race off of the bus, trying to ignore maddie's stupid comment. maddie drags behind, trying to stop me. " Chloe. chloe! it's not a big deal. it's just a stupid high school dance. nobody likes us. we're not popular. you have to exept that." I stop and turn around. " So because we're not popular, we can't have a good time at a party?! if that's what your trying to say, then I'm not talking to you for a long while!" maddie turns a bright red in her cheeks. "FINE! if you want to learn the hard way, so be it!"

I didn't know what to do with maddie. she is always so contrary. she never understands what it would be like in my shoes. how hard it is to live with my family. I thought friends were always there to understand you and comfort you. maybe maddie isn't my friend. But I can't say that to her! she would be devastated. luckily I have one more actual friend. his name is Brian. he is like the brother I've never had. literally. he's awesome! every Tuesday we go to ramby's resturaunt to get smoothies. I bet rambling rasberry berry, and he gets lucky peanut piña colada pineapple with a hint of mustard. it sounds as gross as a sewer rat. I've never tried it because I was scared I would wake up in the emergency room getting my stomach pumped! so I stick to the usual. thankfully, it was Tuesday. today was another fun day with my REAL friend that would never be so negative. I walked up to an open locker with a giant scratch through the door of it. I knew it was Brian's locker because I've memorized the image of the steak knife stabbing through the locker, when it was suppose to go into Brian.

"HI! whacha doin?!" I exclaimed. he jumped up and papers and folders flew. "geez! you scared the livening livers out of me!" he said in such horror. To bad for me and him, Sam, my clueless sister, was only one locker down from Brian. we laughed together from Brian's shock, and Sam was just eye balling us for the longest. I knew she was always spying on us, to see anything going on between us. but she was just paranoid. she's paranoid of me getting an actual... what's the word...oh yeah, a LIFE before she does. which I will because I will go to Harvard and be the one to create a cure for cancer and be famous and successful for my courageous action! plus, marry Taylor laughner. it's been a wierd dream.

mentor literary essay

have you ever been so desperate for love, that you enrolled in a French class, and made up French words to impress a girl? hopfully you haven't, but victor from the book seventh grade has. You will learn about how he can be so desperate right here!

Victor promised himself that he get Theresa to be his girl. Victor thinks that he would impress Theresa, and she would want to go out with him. Victor had to find a way to impress Theresa. He was going to be in French class with Theresa, and that have him a chance to show off. Mr.bueller asked if anyone knew French. victor raised his hand, wanting to impress Theresa. the teacher beamed and said, "tres bien. paralez-vous francais?" Victor didn't know what to say.

when victor steps up to speak French in front of the class, he feels he will impress Theresa and everything will be fine.that is until Mr.bueller asks him a question he should answer in FRENCH! Victor is speechless and doesn't know what to say. but he has to say something. so he makes up words that sound frenchie to play it off. the class grew very silent and eyes were all around him.

victor realizes that he really likes Theresa and he really wanted to impress her. it says he was "sweaty with shame" (58). He feels he failed at his attempt of getting Theresa to be his girl and that he didn't impress her. he had one problem and the same emotion - shameful that he didn't have Theresa. but they are still friends. I guess victor wanted more than that.

In seventh grade, victor realizes that he LOVES Theresa. he needed some way to impress her. he is desperate for love. Victor has never felt so in love, confident, and brave to say the fake French words.
