An Auschwitz Survivor

I thought it was great how he got to see his father again and that they both survived.  I thought it was horrible how people were burned alive and how he never saw his mother or sister ever again.  I also that it was great that he married a woman not long after his release and also that he has a daughter.

Gossip

I think this is a very appropriate analogy to make about gossip. Gossip is bad things about people that someone starts and gets around as fast as a bullet gets to its target. If you are the generator of the gossip you will lose your friends and will make yourself disliked by everybody. If you are the one the gossip is about people may start to see you in a bad way and people will think that what the gossip said is always true about you. I would have told the girl to say sorry to the boy and never do it again.

Lenten Progress

For lent I have decided to give up snacks and so far I've been doing pretty good but every now and I forget and have something to eat between meals. It hasent brought me any closer to God but I really hope it does because I really want to be a better Catholic. I also want to give up snacks for lent so that I might lose some weight. If I do have a snack it will be yogurt, fruit, or vegetables. When I have something for dessert I'll have something that isn't one of my favorite things to eat so I won't have alot.

Future Career

I want to become an electrician when I grow up because when I was in eight grade I went on a field trip to Expo Gardens where they let us try various things one of which was connecting wires to make a lightbulb work.  That and finding out that you just had to go to an Electrician Apprenticeship College for five years, don't have to go to college, pays forty dollars an hour, and that I would be helping people is what really made me realize I wanted to become an electrician.  I have an uncle who is an electrician who also made me want to be an electrician.  I think that I will definitely be able to become an electrician.

Service Project

I am currently doing Meals On Wheels with my dad.  We deliver meals to seniors in apartment buildings because they can't go out and get their own meals.  My dad has been doing it for years and introduced me to it when I became a Freshman.  My goal is to complete at least twenty-five hours.  I really like the people I deliver the meals to because their very nice and they don't get mad if I do something wrong.  By doing this I am providing seniors with food where they would otherwise not get food.

GarageBand Podcast

I am going to do the script on Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.  So far I have typed the script and am going to record it tomorrow.  I had trouble picking out the parts of the summary of the movie I wanted in my script.  For the music I am going to try to go with the Indiana Jones theme.
