It was a very interesting movie i can tell you that though, i payed attention the whole time. but the ending of that movie was a little bit ridiculous though, so many guys stabbing caeser. but were gonna read the play soon, so i better get to doing the definitions, bye bye

The Bravest of the Brave

Dear Reader,

   The theme I chose was bravery, and the reason for this is my book showed many accounts of bravery throughout. In the book I read, Brisingr, the main character, Eragon, show huge amounts of bravery by taking on the responsibility of many. Now bravery is a hard thing to come by in a person and when it is found you should always keep hold of it. You will see accounts of bravery throughout my post. I will be providing you with examples of the bravery shown throughout Brisingr, throughout this post. Another reason why I chose this theme, bravery, is because it is a very important trait to have at times of great importance. We all need bravery when facing opponents or in some cases ones fears. Bravery defines one whole being, without bravery we wouldn’t have people in this world that will give up their lives for the sake of others living.

“Bravery is being the only one who knows you're afraid.”

Dear Nasuada,

           

        Things are not going as planned with Roran and my trip to Hellgrind. First we had to worry about being spotted by the black priest’s magicians, and then we had to save our strength for the raid. We waited a few days to come up with a plan on the ways we shall infiltrate Hellgrind and save Katrina. After many days of sitting and waiting we finally went into Hellgrind and attacked the Ra’zac(Katrina’s prison keepers). Knowing fully of the risk he was taking Roran ran in there fighting the Ra’zac for his love of Katrina. In my mind I was extremely surprised by his act of bravery; I was in great awe. In the end of it we saved Katrina and Roran is on his way back with her to the Varden. As for me I decided to stay here and infiltrate Hellgrind some more for the sake of the Varden. If there is any valuable information in this god for saken place I will find it.

 “Bravery is believing in yourself, and that thing nobody can teach you.”

-          El Cordobes

Flashback:

“As I ran towards the great city that lay before us, Feinster, I think to myself this is going to be one of the most challenging battles of my life. Scared, worried, excited, adrenaline, all these emotions running throughout my body. But I fight for my love, Katrina, for my hometown, Carvahall, and for all of all of the free Alagaesia. Readying myself for the horn to sound, so I can charge this city and bring a victory to the Varden, I give whole self to this cause for the dream to once again live in my hometown! *horn* I hear over 1000 war cries coming from this massive army, adrenaline running throughout my veins, I am ready to take on the whole world…”

“Bravery never goes out of fashion”

-          William Makepeace Thackeray

A Day in the life of Eragon Shadeslayer…

1. First I wake up and smell the fresh air, stretch, talk to Saphira real quick
2. After talking to her I go and bath and get dressed in one of my elf tunics
3. Then I go for a walk and whenever I get the chance I help out local citizens by sacrificing my strength to heal their loved ones
4. Nasuada usually calls for me to come to her by noon
5. As I walk to her tent I hear distant cries of Thorn being broken
6. Nasuada informs me that I need to do a mission for her and sacrifice my life once again for the people I love the most
7. I respectfully accept this mission, then walk out and get prepared

 “True bravery is shown by performing without witness what one might be capable of doing before all the world”

Reflection,

       Throughout this whole project I was thinking of which theme I should choose. Then I came upon bravery, which is a very rare quality. After doing this project and reading this book it gave me more of a sense of what the word bravery means, not just the definition. Bravery is the ability to stand up for what is right, and face your fears against all odds. I have learned that even though bravery is very hard to come by everyone has it; it comes out when they need it most. No one can tell if someone’s brave or not just by looking at them, they find out through their actions. Bravery defines the world and all its inhabitants. This project has taught me how to find bravery in even the most hardest places to fine it, and I appreciate it greatly.

there have been many achievements in my life. But i can't narrow down to one greatest achievement. Maybe it was helping my soccer teams out by saving game wining goals, or the tournaments i helped my teams win. Or it was when i first "bent" my soccer kicks, now that was great day. but i have achieved many great things, like my first A on a math test, im horrible in math. my soccer career had brought many great achievements to my life, i did my fist bicycle kick for a goal in 5th grade, it was awesome but hurt:/. i dont know if this is great or anything but one time when i was goalie i broke a kids leg because of how i took him out. it was nice until i got a red card for being to rough:/ haha. sometimes i miss playing soccer but then i dont at same time, idk maybe i should start training again and play again? i have no clue but i have to go bye bye hope your weekend was good

Rainy Days come with bad news

     It all started on a rainy day, clouds were thundering. Me and some of the people i know were all chilling in a classroom for study hall. The ceilings were dripping water, buckets everywhere catching the water. Shutters banging against the windows from the howling winds.
    BOOM! Huge loud crack from the clouds and a magnificant streak of lighting dashes across the sky. Jordan: " OMG this storm is freaking me out!" Courtney: " Ehh I don't mind it much; I kinda like it." Kelsey: "like come on guys shut up, I'm trying to talk on the phone." Nick: " shut up kelsey, and get off the phone!" Kelsey: "I'm tired of all of you!"
     The room goes dead quiet as the storm rages on. Jordan whispers to me: " Man kelsey is getting annoying!" Me: " I know, i just wish she was out of this class." Amy: " I just wish she was dead!" Jordan: " Woah there missy you don't need to say that!" Kelsey: " I'm so tired of this storm and class! Ugh this sucks!" Courtney to nick: " I'm so tired of her complaining all the time!" Nick: " I know, I know only 2 more hours till were out of here:)"
      Courtney and Amy move a little closer to kelsey. Kelsey on the phone: "UGH two nasty people just moved next to me!" Nick: "That girl really needs to be quiet, im completely tired of her mouth." BOOM another streak of lightning goes across the sky, this time hitting the power plant. Lights go off everybody's quiet.
      Random scream: " AHHH!" then all of a sudden you hear a body hit the floor. *THUD* Jordan: "OMG who do you think that was!?" Me: "I don't know, and I'm scared!" The lights magically appear back on, everyone looks around. Courtney: "Omg, look Kelseys dead!" The door bursts open, Mr. Carter steps in. Mr. Carter: "What happened here!?" Amy: "We don't know, the lights went out, and then we heard a scream, then lights came on."  Mr. Carter: "Wells than, I think this was murder. Amy and Courtney kept backing away from everybody.
      Mr. Carter: "So what were you two doing?" Amy and Courtney looking suspicious. Amy and Courtney: "Nothing." Mr. Carter: "Lies! I see blood behind one of you!" Everybody is looking on them now, their eyes pop out of their head. Amy: "I didn't do it, I swear!" Courtney: "Umm." She throws a bloody pencil at the window. Mr. Carter: "Your Arrested!"

Man i have alot of things that i do to waste time or it can be considered a waste of time. Lets see usually i play COD or AC: Brotherhood for an hour or 2 every day. now that is a big waste of time, because i could be using that time to do homework or chores or something. but i personally dont really care. the video games entertain me when im not hanging out with my friends. and then tv i usually watch either while im doing my homework or after it. now this is not a very good thing because im usually distracted by the tv ha. but movies are a big waste of my time, or shows. like tom and jerry i will stop everything i am doing just to watch it, i love that show. but anways i gotta go bye bye
