Journal Entry 61: Film V Book :)
Have you ever thought how films and books are alike and different? Well films and books can be alike for example films still have the same main idea (by that I meant plot) as books and also films also have the same characters as in the book. Although films and books can be different too because films mostly include the more important events but not the teeny tiny events. So, I think that it is best to read the book first then watch the film since the book contains more details than the film. Also when you are reading you can also imagine the characters and places. Not like it is already shown to you like in the film. Today in class we watch the movie of the book the Hatchet. The movie was sort of different from the book. Like when the plane was about to crash Brian decided to land on the water in the book but in the movie Brian landed on the water by accident not like he planed it. There was also a part where in the movie Brian ate worms although in the book Brian did not eat worms. In the book Brian saw a bear but Brian knew the bear would not harm him, so he was not scared although in the movie Brian was scared of the bear.

Journal Entry 60: Hip-Hop Language :)
Just to say first before I type the hip-hop language stuff. I am really not that good at hip-hop language, so I guess this journal entry is going to be very sucky. So do not expect this journal entry is going to be good. Oh and by the way I am not sure if I can swear in this but I did so too bad. Here it goes: I ain't have an idea how to type ma journal.

Journal Entry 59: Epic Language :)
Well first of all I am not really sure how to write in epic language. Since, it is suppose to sound fancy and elegant and I do not usually write like that. I think it is suppose to be something like "I am FANCY". Wow that sounds so fancy. Well anyways I am just going to start my fancy talk now and my topic is about my daily life. Here it goes:
It is 6 o'clock in the morning and I wake up feeling fancy. I walk fancily to take the fancy HSR to the fancy PAS. Now the fancy me has arrived at school. I go to take my first fancy subject, which is fancy math. Even getting bored in math class is also very fancy. Now the bell rings a fancy tone. I go to my next fancy class which is English class. Here in English class we have to write fancy things, such as this fancy journal I am writing now. After this fancy class is lunch. At lunch we eat fancy things everyday (yeah right!). We have fancy food like, fancy rice, fancy noodles, fancy veggies, fancy tofus, fancy meats, and a lot of more delicious fancy foods. When lunch is over, I have two more fancy periods of fancy school. Finally after these two fancy periods of fancy school, I can fancily go home. Here in my fancy home I have to finish my fancy school homework then I can go have my fancy dinner and take a fancy shower. After all of these fancy things are over I can go have my fancy sleep. At last my fancy day is over!
Well I don't really think this writing is written in epic language. Although it sounds very fancy and my topic is about an everyday activity, so I guess I did follow the instructions.

Journal Entry 58: Luck? :)
Does Brian have luck? Well yeah, I think he has luck, since he is a thirteen year old boy that can survive all by himself in the Canadian woods for about 2 months. Brian is also lucky because he became more observant and creative, such as he can build fire and catch food (birds and berries). Although Brian has also bad luck because the plane he was taking to visit his father had a pilot with a heart attack problem. Plus he is lost in the woods. Brian also gets attacked by a porcupine, tornado and a moose. I think to get good luck, you will need to like pray, or you can go find a four leaf clover, or you find a leprechaun. Bad luck is like, you see a black cat that pass by you, or you spill salt, or you walk under a ladder, or you break a mirror.Well I do not really believe in luck, since I do not really think that there was any time that something I wanted to happen, happened. Like there was one time in math class where our class had a test, which is multiple choice. I suck at math really much, so I just guessed on some of the questions but I did not get them correct.

Journal Entry 57: What Makes Fire? :)
In the book called Hatchet, the main character which is Brian tries to make a fire. Brian failed many times to make a fire but at last he could make a fire. The three things he used was his hatchet (to make sparks), wood (to cause friction), and the last thing was oxygen (heat). Although before I read this book, I thought that rubbing two sticks of wood together could make fire because I saw that it can happen in many television shows. Brian at first tried using two sticks of wood to make fire, although it could not work, not like how it shows in many tv shows. Brian then uses his hatchet to make fire because at first he was sleeping in the dark until there was this creature moving around inside his shelter, which is a porcupine. Then Brian threw his hatchet at the porcupine but he didn't aim, so instead he aimed the wall by accident, which prevented sparks. Then he tried adding the sparks into the wood (the wood has to be dry, not wet), although the sparks faded quickly. Brian then added the sparks into the wood then he blew air into it, which kept the sparks on the wood.

Journal Entry 56: Lost in the Woods :)
If I was suddenly lost in the woods, first of all I would scream because that is what I usually do when I end up with something I can not deal with by myself. I do not know any survival techniques because I sort of hate nature pretty much, so I do not go to the places like mountains or forests very often. I guess I would panic a lot but if I had my phone with me then I would just call 911 and awesome heroes will come save me from this horrible place. Although I think that getting lost in the forest is better than getting lost in the desert or mountain. First of all the desert is too HOT and DRY and you can not find water there. Getting lost on the top of the mountain would be also bad because, you can not get a lot of air plus there are crazy, little monkeys living in the trees that might come out and attack you. If you were lost in the forest you might find some bushes with food, such as berries. In the forest you can also find wood to make fire. Although getting lost in the forest can also be bad because there are bears living in the forest, which is scary, since the bears can tear you up into tiny, little pieces.

Journal Entry 55: Personal Assets :)
In the book we just read, which is called Hatchet, the main character that is Brian Robeson crashes in this Canadian forest and tries to survive in the forest. Brian's personal assets is that his mother gave him this hatchet, which was pretty useful for him. The hatchet was very valuable to Brian because he can use that to make fire, build shelter, make weapons, and IT WAS EVERYTHING TO HIM!!! Brian also learned from a television show about turtles, which also helped him because then he will know what type of eggs that he found. Brian also got some ideas from his friend or teacher (I forgot which one) that he should think in a positive way. For my assets I think it is my parents because they encourage me to learn and explore new things, like when I was little I wanted to learn violin and my parents worked hard to let me go take violin classes, although sometimes I hate violin because I have to practice it for a long time. My parents also support me a lot, like my parents yell at me because they want me to learn in the correct way not the wrong way although there yelling might be very annoying sometimes. Well it is just that I think my parents don't want me to turn into a bad kid, so they keep reminding me.

Journal Entry 54: Solving Problems :)
I think I solve real-life problems by using my previous knowledge. For example I learn a lot of useful stuffs in television shows or movies or magazines or from people or maybe from a book, like the book we just read in class, which is called Hatchet. Although I think I solve most of things by screaming first because I think it is sort of a habit for me to scream at things. I guess that most of my classmates have heard me scream many times. Sometimes when I see spiders or other disgusting creatures I scream first before I kill them. After reading the book Hatchet, I think that I learned many new things from that book. I learned many things from Brian (the main character in the book Hatchet), like how to survive by learning how to make a fire, how to make a bow and arrow, how to build shelter, how to find food and how to use a hatchet. I also learn stuff like math in school, so I can solve math problems in daily life like when I go purchase something at a shop, I can use math at that time, which is actually pretty useful.

Journal Entry 53: Triolet :)
When I first heard the word triolet, I thought it was a toilet.
Triolet of Teddy Bears
Pink, chubby teddy bears
That are cute
They are sitting on chairs
Pink chubby teddy bears

They smell like fruit
Pink, chubby teddy bears
That are cute
Triolet of Unicorns
Unicorns that have wings
They fly very high
Unicorns that sings
Unicorns that have wings
They do not live in springs
They live in the sky
Unicorns that have wings
They fly very high

Journal Entry 52: You & Nature :)
What do I think about nature? I think that nature can be good and also bad at the same time. But most of the time, I hate nature pretty much actually, since there is A LOT of bugs and insects that I am afraid of, where I scream very loudly when I see the bugs and insects. INSECTS AND BUGS ARE SOOOOOO HATEFUL, HATEFUL HATEFUL, AND HATEFUL!!! I am even afraid of frogs and most of other reptiles too because they look gooey and mushy. I am also allergic to some flowers with pollen, which is really annoying for me because I will keep sneezing. Well on the other hand, there are also good things about nature. For example there is FOOD and WATER!!! Well if we did not have food and water then we would all die and then we will not exist on this world, where I will not be able to write in this journal entry. The scenes of nature can be also a beautiful thing too but some creatures may be creepy like what I just mentioned in the previous sentences, which are bugs, insects, and reptiles. I would probably love nature very much if there was no bugs, no insects, and no reptiles.

Journal Entry 51: Limerick :)
Limerick of Rainbows
I see a rainbow,
in the meadow.
They are very colourful,
and they are not harmful,
Not like a hobo.
Limerick of Cats
She has a cat,
and the cat is fat.
The cat is lazy,
but sometimes crazy.
Because the cat ate a rat.
Limerick of Cockroaches
I hate cockroaches,
that approaches,
at my floor,
without knocking on the door.
Pretending they are coaches.
