Food
Do you like food? I LOVE FOOD! It's one of my favorite times of day. Every morning i eat a big breakfast and eat as much as i can for lunch. I don't usually eat that much dinner though but it just all depends on what my mom cooks. My favorite food is pizza. I like cheese and sausage pizza the most. The only pizza i don't like is ones with a lot of vegetables on it or pineapple. I like almost all foods. They make you big and strong although some foods may not be too good for your health. The cheese pizza from the pizzaria in Pewaukee is the best. I love it so much they fill it with sauce and put a lot of cheese on top.

Electronics
I love electronics. Without them the world would be so dull and boring. I own a Xbox 360. It's very entertaining and keeps me from annoying others. I own many games. my favorite game is either Halo 3 or Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2. They are very fun and they are first hand shooting games. Me and my two brothers Kyler and Blaine all play it against each other. My little brother always freaks out at me when i dominate him. It's very funny to watch. I also own a T.V. and an I Pod touch. I don't use my I-Pod that much and i only use my T.V. for playing video games, even though i barely play because it is better to go outside and be active.

HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS
Why is Harry Potter always in harm’s way? In the book Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets there are two main themes, one which is danger, and the other which is courage. In the book Harry needs to have both of these to defeat Voldemort, one of the greatest known wizards known! Even though Harry is constantly in trouble, he always finds a way to keep himself alive.
One of the main themes in this book is danger. In this book a very dark, evil wizard named Voldemort is after Harry. When Harry finds Tom riddles diary, he soon figures out that when he writes a question that what he wrote would disappear and the book would right an answer back to him. Harry quotes; “can you tell me about Tom Riddel?” and the book replies “No, but I can show you.” And then it takes Harry back into time to show him what had happened that day with Hagrid and him. Then when Harry finds the secret chamber in the bathroom, he goes down into Tom’s lair and finds out Tom Marvolo Ridde is Lord Voldemort. If you were to unscramble the words it would be “I am Lord Voldemort.” Since Tom could speak to snakes he brought out a giant snake to try to kill harry. Harry defeats the snake and saves Ron’s Sister Jenny and returns back to Hogwarts. This shows that harry is always in danger.
Although the first theme of the book was danger, we must not forget the second theme, courage. Harry Potter must have courage when he is fighting Tom Riddel. Without all his courage he would not be able to have survived through this battle. Harry also needs courage to even try and stop him! Harry is a very courageous young boy. Harry probably wouldn’t have even gone to Hogwarts if he wasn’t so determined and courageous. He would have listened to Dobby when he had told him that Lord Voldemort was back. These examples show that Harry has a lot of courage to have gone to Hogwarts this year and to have fought, and won the battle against Tom Riddle and the snake.
I love the whole Harry Potter series. Harry, (the main character) is just an amazing person. Harry is always in trouble with Lord Voldemort always after him, but he is always careful about things. Although he may get himself involved in more things than he has to he is still a very smart person. J.K. Rowling’s is just a tremendous writer and her Harry Potter series just takes you to a whole new world. Even though Harry is constantly in trouble, he always finds a way to keep himself alive.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone
I believe harry potter and the sorcerer’s stone by J.K. Rowling’s is a tragedy. At the beginning of the story harry is living with his Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon. Harry spends all his time at home and never gets to do anything fun or go or have friends over. He is mistreated just because his aunt and uncle know he is different. Harry is a wizard but he does not know this yet. Because of the symbolism, and plotline Harry Potter and the sorcerer’s stone by J.K Rowling followed the tragic mode of literature.
This book had much resemblance to showing how it is a tragedy. Like at the beginning of the book, Harry Potter is a very nice, well behaved boy but is treated terribly. Harry is lied to by his aunt and uncle, made fun of by his cousin Dudley, and has never even had a birthday present! This is resemblance to the main character is in a conflict. Before all this had even happened, Harry’s parents had been killed and Harry had survived somehow, with only having a scar on his forehead in the shape of a lightning bolt. This resembles a tragic flaw in the story. The death or death symbolism is at the end of the book when harry kills Voldemort by finding out that if he touches him he burns to ashes and dies. This is in resemblance to death because Voldemort is dead because Harry had killed him, well kind of. Lord Voldemort doesn’t really die he is in the body of a young professor who works at Hogwarts, Even though Lord Voldemorts spirit still exists.
Although the plotline of the mode of literature is important, the characteristics are just as important. Harry Potter is in control. He doesn’t let things get to his head and he doesn’t freak out about things. He’s very calm and keeps his sanity even when he is fighting Voldemort. The purpose is very important as well. I believe that the main purpose of this story is to show that not everyone has a perfect life. Such as in the beginning, when Harry’s parents are dead and he lives with his Aunt and Uncle who are very cruel to him. They even lie to him! Some people may think they have it bad but others probably have it worse.
As you can see this is a tragedy and it follows the plotline perfectly. I thought this was a very well written book showing Harry’s adventures and such. J.K. Rowling’s books are my favorite. They are very interesting and very fun to read. Because of the symbolism, and plotline Harry Potter and the sorcerer’s stone by J.K Rowling followed the tragic mode of literature.

There once was a young boy named Bill. He was walking to school when all of a sudden he was taken in by the cops. Bill was always a good kid and never had done anything bad and had no idea why he was being taken in. He knew he hadn't broken any rules and never stole anything, so maybe it was one of his family members! when he arrived at the station, sure enough it had been his best friend Joey. Joey had stolen 4 candy bars from wal-mart and was being arrested for the night. He was frightened and knew never to do this again. Bill was very curious why Joey had stolen the candy, so he asked him and he replied saying "I don't know i didn't think before i acted." Bill knew he was sorry and wasn't gonna ever do it again. he was relieved to know he hadn't done anything. Bill went home and fell asleep on the couch. the next morning he woke up and got ready for school, then he was off to school in no time! Bill had so many questions to ask joey when he got there like "was jail scary?" or "was the food bad?". Bill didn't even know where to start he had so many questions!

Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban
The main character is a young teenage boy named harry potter. Harry had been going to school to learn how to become a wizard. It was his third year at Hogwarts. The main idea of this story is Harry Potter defeating his fear from dementors and saving an old friend of his parents named Serious Black. For example, when harry was on the train going to Hogwarts, the train had stopped. Everything was still. The air was cool and there were no sudden movements, when all of a sudden a dementor came through the sliding doors and had started to suck the life out of harry. Luckily, there had been a man named Professor Loopin who had known the spell on how to stop a dementor, expecto patronum. He had fought the dementor off and harry was saved. This is an example of how he is in fear of a dementor.
Now, harry is trying to overcome this fear so he goes to professor Loopin and asks how to use the spell, “expecto patronum.” Looping helps harry accomplish this spell and harry is now fearless of the dementors. Now, harry is trying to overcome this fear so he goes to professor Loopin and asks how to use the spell “expecto patronum.” Looping helps harry accomplish this spell and harry is now fearless of the dementors. This is an example of how harry had fear and had conquered it.
Although harry had been trying to overcome his fear of dementors, now he is going to save an old friend of his family named Serious Black. Now he is back to his second goal which is trying to actually kill serious Black who is the man that he eventually wants to save! Harry had heard that a man named serious Black was the man who helped Voldemort kill his parents. Although this was not true, Harry was too angry to realize this.
The man who had really helped Voldemort kill his parents was Peter Pettigrew (Ron’s rat). Serious Black had now run down into the forest and dementors came and started to suck his soul out. Harry had come down to try and stop them but there were far too many to fight off. Harry had almost passed out along with Serious Black and almost died, but all of a sudden a strange white figure had come out and wiped out all of the dementors. Although Harry and Serious passed out, serious had been taken back to Azkaban and harry had been brought back to Hogwarts were he could be healed. Harry and his best friend Hermeone went back in time with one of Hermeone’s rare, special items and saved Black from Azkaban.
Harry had overcome his fear of the dementors and had also saved an old friend of his parents and a new friend of his, Serious Black. Although, it had not been easy for him, mainly because he is a teenage boy, yet he managed to accomplish it. Harry is a remarkable boy and is very brave and courageous. Harry does many things in this book that no man could bear to attempt. I liked this book because it is very fun to read and is very interesting and has a lot of details in it. It is a very well written story by J.K. Rowling.

Snowday
On Wednesday, February 2nd, our school had a snowday. It was very boring though because my house is boring and there is nothing to do but play videogames, but eventually i get bored of playing them. Although, there was an upside to this snowday. Its pretty obvious. We didn't have to do school work or go to school! well we did have to do school work but there wasn't very much of it. Furthermore, at least we had no school.
