NO MEDIA WEEK WAS HARD!

Over the no media week I went to Emma's and we played card games, board games, messed with our hair, beaded, went to the mall, read books, and we went for bike rides, and walks. We did that in three days.
Then i went home and my brother and his friends were playing video games so that counted as my tv because watched them play for a long time. Then I got out my book and read for a long time. Next they decided to go play basketball at the park so I went and played that. No one blockced me because i was so small so I got all the points. I really didn't care. Thats how we won. It was so long. I did the same thing for the rest of the time excpt for the watching them play video games. That's about it. Oh yeah and I played a gamed called dice which is really fun.

Thanksgiving To Me Is.......................................

           To me Thanksgiving is eating with friends and family. It is nice to go eat with family and see family members that you haven't seen in a loooooooooooong time. Or even when you live with them. It is good to share what you are thankful for why you are thankful for it. I shared that I'm thankful for famly that lves me because everyone needs it. Your family would be greatful that you said that.

             Thanksgiving to me is also being thankful for people and what they do for you. Say if you need food and nobody knows abouut it, you think the closest people to you do know and give you food. You can also make poeple be thankful for you which is one of the best feelings. You can donate to a charity or give cards and tell people that you are thankful for them.

               It is also spending time with them. If you have a brother or sister be thankful they are here. You never know when they might go away. If you aren't close to them, that is something you need to do. If you are spending time is a chance to get close to them. You can play card games, board games, or even just talk about things that make you trust them more. BE THANKFUL FOR SIBLINGS!

My Favorite Book

         My favorite book is "The Card Turner". This book is my favorite because I like how he talked to you. When he told seperate stories he said something like; "You might think My Uncle Lester couldn't play because he was blind he had a good memory."
         His uncle was rich and Alex and his family wasn't so fortunate. His mom wanted him to get to know him so when he dies to get his will. Alex cardturned for him because his uncle was blind. He had a good enough memory to rememeber them but he needed someone to tell it to him first. The game they played was bridge. They had fun tourtements. Alex got the hang of playing the and got good at guessing what his uncle wanted to play before he said it. One big tourtenment was coming in a week. They were exited. In that time he met Lester's neice, Toni. She was the same age as Alex. They like eachother a lot after bonding. She was Lester's recent cardturner and she wasn't a good one for him because she knew how to play before and she would arue  with his decisons. Sadly with in a few days Lester died. They did get his will. Toni and Alex had to finish the tourtenmen so they did but they did as Lester and Teodora. They won the tourtenment so exited. When they were asked to get there picture taken they just ditched and left. They each got in trouble when they got home but it was worth it.

How to Write a Good Introduction

Writing a good introduction is important. Of course you don't want ot bore your readers. So you need to think of a good intro like: The past should be left alone because it no longer exists. Yet, it is good that I still own my memories. Things I want to engrave, or the things I want to forget, will leave traces in my minds. Sometimes recollection is a joy. Memory is like putting together the puzzle pieces of previous experiences. I believe memory is the core of the soul — like the bulb in the light, without it the light cannot shine.This intro. is good because it has a good not boring beginning and has good details unlike this: I'm going to tell you why the past is the past. I think it is because...
That would be very boring! This intro. doesn't have any good ddetails and is short and it could be better like the other one.
