9/11





    The terror attacks in 2001, on September 11, may have been the most devastating event in American history. These were four coordinated attacks by the terrorist group al-Quaeda. These attacks killed 2,996 people and injured over 6,000 others. This terror group hijacked planes and sent 2 of them into the north and south towers of the world trade center. A third plane crashed into the pentagon and lead to a partial collapse of the Western wall. The 4th plane crashed in Stonycreek township. These attacks were a shock to America.


     All Americans watched these attacks with horror and shock and just didn't know what to do. Families were broken in a matter of seconds and they had to try and identify all of the dead bodies. This was the single deadliest incident for firefighters and law enforcement officials. The fourth plane that was supposed to hit the White House ended up missing because of the heroes in the plane that fought back against the terrorists.All in all this was a terrible event in America.

        Thanksgiving break can be so annoying. We have so much homework and it stresses me out the entire break. I wish we could have a whole break with no homework. But I guess that is just too much to ask for. I get that we need to keep our minds refreshed sometimes but we get so much homework it does so much more than that.        Thanksgiving is also just not my favorite holiday in general. We have to all just sit together and eat and it is so boring. Thursday was definitely my least favorite day of the break. It isn't my moms favorite holiday because eating food we don't especially like isnt our favorite pastime. So this holiday gets on my nerves.

Narrative response

     I think that my personal narrative is definitely a work in progress but so far it is pretty good. I think that the writing small groups were very helpful and I got good, positive feedback on my narrative. Was told that my narrative had good vivid detail and I was glad because I know that that is something important in a personal narrative. I think that if I continue to improve and build on what I already have then it will become a very good narrative.      I thought that the feedback I got on how to improve my narrative was even better. I was told to add dialogue which I am struggling with but I know that it will be a lot better. I was also told to describe what the best part about cross country was and I think that it will be an interesting direction for the narrative to go in instead of just naming all of the things that I like. I think that this feedback will make the difference in a good grade and a bad one.

LSU beats Florida

     Florida is one of the teams that I just can't stand. Their football team is bunch of arrogant guys who have more attitude than talent. I've been waiting for this game ever since last year when we lost on the 1 yard line. Watching the game this year I was so nervous and I just wanted us yo win so bad. We went up by 14 and I thought that we were just going to win like that and then before you know it it's 17-10 and they are driving down the field.      Then they scored and I started to think that we were going to lose. But then all of a sudden they missed the extra point and I felt rejoiced. We went on to win the game and I was so happy that even though Danny Etling had a terrible game, we still won. I was the happiest ever after an LSU game besides Alabama games when we win. Revenge has been served.
