"The lady or the Tiger?" Justice system

I would rather be tried under our justice system If I were a cussed for a crime. I would want to be seen by a judge because I could get a lawyer to help me prove my case wrong or right and I would be able to tell my side of the story or situation in my own words. I would not want a king deciding my punishment for my consequence. It’s not really fair to pick a door and behind one of the doors there’s a tiger and behind the other there’s a lady. What if I picked the tiger and I was innocent? What if I picked the lady and I was guilty? That isn’t a good system. People deserve a consequence for there crimes and justice for there innocents. The united states justice system is okay. It could be better.

"What I learned in English 9/10 second quarter".

I’ve learned a lot in 9^th grade English. I’ve moved around a lot in my schools years. I’ve been to 12 different schools while I was in elementary school and middle school, so being able to stay in one school setting during high school I’ve learned a lot so far. Our world is going in to technology now and since I’ve been in Ms. Priester’s class I’ve learned how to post blogs on blogger, do a power point and so many other amazing things. English may get hard at certain points and time but I just remember in the end it will all payoff!   

" The lady or the Tiger?" Which door?

In the story the lady or the Tiger the Man got accused of falling in love with the kings daughter.  They were in love with each other, but the king couldn’t know. The king found out and the man got  in trouble and had to go to the  arena  for his trial. In the arena two doors. Behind one door there’s a tiger and behind the other there’s a woman. If the man chooses the door with tiger behind it he is guilty and will be eaten by the tiger. If he chooses the one with the women he will marry her and walk away innocent. The kings’ daughter made an arm movement telling the man which door to pick. I think he opened the door with the tiger because the princess would be very upset if her lover had to marry another. She would rather see the one she loves dead than with someone else.

Shop till you drop extra credit

Shop till you drop! Shop till you drop was amazing! I got to take pictures with my house parents and former house mates. I also got to walk around and pick out some cloths that I like. (That’s my favorite part.) I also won a bike and got an I pod nano!

I also got to talk to staff and a couple of friends before the event was over. Shop till you drop was awesome and I love when the friends of san Pasqual comes and does things like that for us. It makes most of us feel loved! I really appreciate when the friends of san Pasqual come!

" The gift Of Magi" My most genorous gift

Two years ago on Christmas I gave my mom a Picture frame. I gave her a picture frame because she could keep all the cool and great memories of us or our family to keep. My mom was really excited and happy to have it. She had tears of joy swelled up in her eyes. That was my favorite Christmas because not only did I receive but I also gave. It made my heart feel really warm and nice on the inside. Every year

I try to give more to friends and family because it makes me feel like a good person!

"The Gift Of Magi" The Suprise Ending.

When I finished reading "The Gift of Magi" I felt amazed. I felt amazed because this story shows you what people will do for love. When Della cut off some of her hair to buy Jim a chain for his watch it showed that she would do anything for her husband to show that she loved him.
Jim sold his watch to by fancy combs for Della’s long hair showed how much he loves and cares for her.
The conclusion of the story is that if you love someone dearly you would give up everything and that’s basically what Jim and Della did!

Did you enjoy the story? Or If you haven't Read it. Do you plan to?
	yes
	no
	ehh maybe
	of course I will!
	Nope! its about love!

The gift of Magi" The Item I'd Save".

I would save my phone because I would still be able to contact family and friends.
I would still be able to use face book. Also because it’s my favorite item and I would be sad if she got hurt! I know it sounds crazy that I would choose my phone but it’s mine and I treat it like it my own child! When I become an adult, I hope I use my phone to make a lot of business calls and to  reach out to my clients when I become very successful in life. ( I want to be a therapist)
