blog post#6 - silent questions
Posted in Uncategorized on May 13, 2008 by joey33)my neighborhood is pretty cool i guess but living next to the freeway kinda sucks my street is full of nice people who would do just about any thing if i asked them for help. my street is pretty nice but we are surrounded by low income housing.
4) i think that empathy is when you feel sorry for someone because you have gone through the same thing that they are going threw.
5) justice is when good things happen like when a good guy prevails and the bad guy fails. the must unjust thing that i have heard of is when people go to jail for something they didnt do.

Posted in Uncategorized on April 25, 2008 by joey3 BUGGY ACCIDENT
It was the fourth of july and there i was throwing up on the side of the freeway, on my way to Florence Oregon. Once we arrived wwe met up with the family from Cali. which also was the first time that my uncle had been able to take his new sand rail out to the coast.
The first ride of the day the rear tire on the buggy fell off so while i was waiting on top of south jetty i decide to stop and wait for them to catch up, little did i know there was a tour buggy coming over the other side of the hill, as i was shutting my bike off the buggy came over the hilll and ran me over. The guy started freeking out and called his boss and the cops. Telling them that they had just ran over some kid on a banshee.
The guy tried to blame the whole thing on me saying that i ran into him and stuff like that. So my dad ended up having to go to court because of the guy saying that i was under age and didnt have propper supervision. Luckily for us the guy got fired for lying to his boss, so they ended up dropping all of the charges.
Blog Post #4 - Text Messaging… Does it help or hinder student writing?
Posted in Uncategorized on April 11, 2008 by joey3My general thought about text messaging is that it is an easy way to reach my friends. On an avarage day i could send about 200 messages. I talk to just about everyone in my cantacts list. I dont think that text messaging effects my ability to spell well, ive always been a bad speller. I think that text messaging does take away from people talking face to face. But not everyone likes to talk face to face. I think that social skills are takin away but if we are’nt not gonna text then its just gonna be the same thing on myspace.

blog post #2 whats a blog
Posted in Uncategorized on April 4, 2008 by joey3Hi im Joey A blog is something you write about on the internet. the only places ive ever heard of blogs are on myspace and in mrs. hokes class. i am pretty comfterable with computers. typically i only use the computer for directions, to go on myspace, and to download songs. my opinion of writing is that it is pretty boring but can be usefull at times. i dont like to write. I think people are conserned about kid saftey on the internet because of all the sexual predetors on the internet. I think that the internet can be dangerous, it just depends on what your using the internet for. i think my peers use the computer mostly for myspace. i am kinda confused about the whole blog thing but i think i will learn how to use the blog and be more succeful.

The book i chose for my ssr reading was the outsiders by s.e. Hinton. The reason i choose the outsiders was because it was suggested to me by one of my teachers last trimester. it was also suggested by my mother. so far it has been a good book there has been alot of action and it has really kept my attention.
