4. I had been watching TV in the living room with my mom it was late at night maybe around 9pm. I had a bad gut feeling that something was going too happen. I knew something was going to happen. I kept watching TV in the living room with my mom. Then she had went to the kitchen. We didn’t want to wake my sister up she was asleep on the love seat so we hadn’t really been talking. Most of the lights in the house had been the streets lights the night light above are steps and the fish tank light. Though the street light are bright they didn’t really shine through glass well. And the night light hadn’t quite shown the candy apple red of our house. And the fish tank light was blocked by the TV. And this had caused the room to be pretty dark. Then the dogs had started yelping like a wild pack of hyenas. He had been looking like the day he was drunk and left the only difference looking more happy instead of angry. Though I cant forgive him for what he has done. Then I pretended I was asleep so I didn’t have to talk to him and I never wanted to talk to him then within minutes I had fallen asleep. Waking up wondering if any of this ever happened I asked my mom and I hadn’t dreamed it, it was true. Ever since then sometimes I wake up paranoid and sit in a corner where I can here everything even the door.
Journal entry #1
The reason that I chose this personal narrative about when my father came to my house is because he has left my family twice and it has always been because of alcohol which has made me feel like writing about this would make me able to put more emotion.

5. “Chris!” my Mom had yelled I then looked out the window still feeling tired from being woken up. It was so beautiful I couldn’t believe what I was seeing an enormous white arch looking at all of the small details a little box at the top was what I was really intrigued by though I had chosen to ignore it. Then I asked my mom where we where we she said “Louisiana.”.
Journal entry #2

8. A look at me as a reader
I think I have become I better at processing what I'm reading because of being better at writing realizing the methods used and how things can come into play later in the book.
BYE

9. A look at me as a writer
I think I have become a lot better at writing because of being able to introduce different methods of writing that I never knew before this year and I had no idea of what questions to ask myself about writing about this year.

12. On My Honor by Marion Dane Bauer
On my honor by Marion Dane Bauer I BELIVE is a book that is meant to inform people that horrible things can hurt the people around you and that care about you worse than they actually may hurt you. Personally it is horrible but if you hope that everything is ok it may be like it never happened anymore you can overcome whatever it if it someone that you have lost or someone in the hospital if you are strong you can over come it. The only way for you to get mentally better is to try and find closure or continue your day as normal.

13. The Cay by Theodore Taylor
I believe The cay by Theodore Taylor is a book that represents how even in the darkest and worst times don’t give up. In this book I believe the moral is that how even how the darkest of times because in the book Phillip end up with a man he had never met he didn’t like that was black and he didn’t understand him. Because the blacks on the island had lived differently than the whites. And his mother had never let him go the part of the island of where the blacks where. And this all started whenever his mother wanted to go back to West Virginia because of world war 2 but she was afraid of flying a plane so they took a boat and got torpedo. And then timothy pulled him aboard a raft and ended up on a cay and then Phillip wakes up to see a black man who was around 70 years old and his name was Timothy. But in the next morning he had not been able too see, Timothy had told him that maybe he looked at the sun too long when really he had hit his head and pinched nerves in his head. Which caused him too turn blind then an aircraft goes by but they couldn’t get the aircraft’s attention which then gave timothy time to teach Phillip how to survive without his eyesight. But then a hurricane happened and they had been getting along but to save Phillip Timothy sacrificed himself. Phillip woke up later after to here heard a plane and started a fire too try and get its attention and remember that the smoke is white so he then threw grape vine in but it was too late then later the next day he heard warfare and then a plane and he was ready he threw grapevine into the fire he had started a fire the plane saw the smoke and the very next day a boat came. And he was rescued and then later on he gained his sight back after three surgeries and visited the black community then.

16. Titanic : voices from the disaster By Deborah Hopkinson
Titanic : voices from the disaster really makes you really think about how long life is and how it could all just end before you know it. This book also gives you a better perspective on a true disaster from in the past it also gives real stories of people on the ship.

17. Destined to live by Ruth Gruener
Destined to live is about a little girl who had survived through the holocaust who had survived and had went into boxes and all of this trouble to survive and in the end she was at least 18. I recommend you read this book it is emotional thriller book.
