Non-Fiction Book Selection

The book that I chose to read was about snakes and other reptiles. I chose this book because I want to be a herepetologist when I get older, and this was just one of those books that poped out at me. The book contained information about the 'scientific' naming of new species and how to name them, and it showed how to differ certain species from the other. This is like another book that I read, that was fiction and was about how a giant snake came to life and ended up ruling a colony of people as a dictator. This book can help me out in life, if I need to know if a snake is venomous or not it showed me the difference in the two.

Our coffee walk

o                                                        My stalk walk
It was a cold day, and we all needed a coffee so where else would us Canadians go other than Tim Hortons. We stood in the line up for 5 or so minutes when I saw him. Sitting in the corner reading a newspaper, he seemed like he couldn’t step away from it. Why though? Was there something in there that was so important that he could not look at it? I went off into a day dream at that point. Maybe there was an interesting article on a murder, or update on the city council election but what ever it might have been I wanted to know, and it bugged me that I didn't know. He licked his finger and turned the page. Off to a new story I guess. What was this one about? Up coming movies at the Pen Mar, or was it an award for a school student who did something outstanding? Every once in a whille he would break the concentration of reading his paper, to take a sip of coffee, and a bit of his bagel that was covered with what look like strawberry creme cheese. Yum. Some one called his name from across the store, I couldn't make out the name but he was in full attention. A young man with shaggy blonde hair sat across the small table from this mas, and they shook hands and began in an imbreakable conversation. Every once and a whille you would hear the two of them break into laughter. It was quite funny to hear it. After about 10 or 15 minutes of these two talking the yound man dismissed himself, and left. Soon after he followed behind dragging his feet behind him. With the way that he walks I am surprised that he still has rubber on his shoes. But none-the-less he is gone and it was time to make our way back to the school, back down the cold walkway.

IRP

The  topic that I decided to do is about how T.V influences how we think. I chose this topic because of movies like Paranomal Activity and other paranormal shows alter how you think once the show is over. What I already know about this topic is that when you watch a horror movie, and it is over, every sound you hear you think something is there when it is onlly your mind. I plan on presenting my project through power point. The preparation that I need for this presentation, is to learn how to speak in front of the class, and not get embarassed.

Identities

My identity is something that differs me from everyone else. My hair, personality, and structure is like no one elses. I am a tall girl with natural brown hair, and blue eyes. On the first day of school in grade 4 I was the new girl, among people who had known each other since they were born. I sat down at a table that just happened to be full of boys. 3 years later I was called named because in grade 4 I sat with the boys. I always kept to myself, and didn't have many friends so no one knew that I got along better with boys then girls. It wasn't until one girl set aside the rumors and actually took the time to know who I was to understand that I was better friends with boys. For 3 years I had been misidentified because I sat with boys.
