⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

By: Rachel Renée Russell

  This book is one of the best books ever! The amazing author has written another series before, this called Dork Diaries.😍 I have 1, 2, 3, 3 1/2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10;  I’ve read them all at least 10 times 😂. Her books are awesome! Ok, now you’re probably saying “Why is she so amazing? Move on already.” Well you’re in luck, this is why she is so fantastical! Her graphics are clear and plots are fantastic! In the book, Max Crumbly is just a kid that has been home schooled by his grandma. He was now experiencing a public school for his last year of middle school. He meets a girl named Erin and kind of has a crush on her. He also sees Doug Thurston, aka Thug. Thug is a bully, big, rude, and can really ruin someone’s childhood. Thug does just that, shoves Max in his locker. Max begs tries to get out but is stuck there for a long weekend. He finds a little secret and makes his way through vents when he discovers a problem. You will be quite surprised when you see what happens next! I would 10/10 recommend you read this book, it is so good! So let me know if you have read it or Dork Diaries.

Tokyo Ghoul ~ Book Review

Tokyo Ghoul (the first one)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
By: Sui Ishida 

  Tokyo Ghoul is about a guy named Kaneki. Kaneki is kind of a book worm an likes to read books. As hes at the coffee shop Anteiku meets this girl named Rize (re-zae) and falls in love instantly. He walks her home after their date at the Library, when she goes in for a kiss she Bites him in the neck! He quickly finds out she is a ghoul and she tries to kill him. In the sudden change of events, a huge steal beam falls on Rize and he was injured too. When he is rushed to the hospital he needed an emergency surgery and Rize was dead so they transferred some of her insides to him. The soon finds out that nothing tastes good anymore and human food in inedible. Coffee is the only thing he can eat till he smells something delicious, so good, tasty, like his mother’s cooking. He followed the sent to an alley... etc. This was an amazing book and that is just the beginning. Saying its amazing is an understatement. This is the greatest manga (the type of book) ever written. I would recommend this to anyone and to watch the anime too. I watch it on kissanimae.ru but they recently blocked it on our school iPads which is LAME☝️🙄 but you can watch it anywhere else. 10/10 would recommend.

⭐️ Quarter 1 Finally Done ⭐️

Quarter 1 was decent...I’ve gotten to know my teachers, made new friends, do more homework🙄, and learn new things! It’s still hard to believe that 1/4 of the school year has already gone by. Just thinking; 3/4 till high school 😬. My classes are good-ish, I’m getting ok grades, but they could be better though. I’m trying my best to do as well as I can but I don’t enjoy school that much. I don’t think my teachers are really fond of me. I’m kind of a smartie pants so that isn’t always great, but I still try my best to keep my sanity while I’m in class😏.

There is always room for improvement! For the following quarters coming up, I hope to get better grades. The first quarter is always the acclamation quarter, the rest are perseverance quarters. I know I’ll get better at this whole 8th grade thing one day😛.

  I hope to join volleyball, but only if Ms.Rodregez coaches because she is the best teacher ever. I WANTED to join robotics because I love it but they combined two different robotics clubs and still kept the same amount of spaces😤👌. I might join art club because you know... 🤓, but I mean, I have an art room in my house so... kind of defeats the purpose.
This was my quarter 1, hope yours was as splendid as mine!

The Outsiders and Bacon??

On Revenge and Outsiders

                                        The greasers                                     Sir Bacon

     I have read both On Revenge and The Outsiders, not I’m going to compare the two right before your eyes! I have noticed while I res the poem it reminds is me a little of Johnny. “Revenge is a kind of wild justice; which the more man’s nature runs to, the more ought law to weed it out.” Johnny has had all that anger kept inside of him for the longest time. His parents, getting beaten up, lonely feelings, and THEN they were trying to drown ponyboy? He completely exploded and killed bob the soc out of revenge. If His parents and the soc’s didn’t beat him up, if he didn’t feel lonely, and the soc’s were not trying to drown ponyboy then he probably wouldn’t have all this rage that is mentioned in the poem. “There is no man doth a wrong for the wrong’s sake; but thereby to purchase himself profit, or pleasure, or honour, or the like.” He felt that if he killed the soc that beat him up that day, he would feel better and stop the grudge he was holding on them. In conclusion, I have found that the book and the poem have some connections. Reading Outsiders was very enjoyable, and so was reading On Revenge.

Outsiders Book To Movie Differance

Outsiders

Lily Horn

Grade 8

**

       The book and movie Outsiders are both similar and different in a few different ways. The director can change up the story a bit, and you can still tell it's the same story. Like how twinkle twinkle little star and the abc’s are the same notes but different lyrics. I believe that the actors and director of the movie Outsiders did a great job bringing the book to life. I think the movie did capture the message the book was giving. The movie stayed true to the book; maybe not 100% accurate but it is common for directors to change it up a bit. They don’t want it to just repeat the book Exactly.

       There are moments in both the movie and the book that are especially important, and these are a few that both the movie and the book had. When Cherry’s boyfriend and the soc’s see her and Marcia walking with some greasers and Cherry talks about they should go with the soc’s back home, she brings up ‘Don’t take it personal if I ignore you in the halls at school’. That was both in the movie and the book. When Marcia says “No sweat” when the greasers were talking about rumbles, it’s an iconic line from that scene in both the book and the movie. When Johnny was killing the soc scene, they were drowning ponyboy just like in the book. Another memorable moment was when johnny and pony were in the church and Johnny left, pony WOKE UP and was worried where he was and Johnny had written in the rubble that he went out for supplies and food for them. Probably the most iconic, most important, most memorable moment in the book, and in the movie, was when ponyboy recited the poem ‘Nothing Gold Can Stay’ while Johnny and Hume were looking at the sunset.

       There were moments that weren’t quite the same in the movie as in the book. One was that, in the movie, around the outdoor movie theater scene Dally, Pony and Johnny were walking and they see some kids playing cards. Dally demands to see the cards and he showers the little kids with them and then chased them down the alley. I don’t remember that happening in the book. One tiny detail was in the movie theater scene, in the book the guys sit behind the girls, in the movie the girls sit in front of the guys. A characterization I saw was that in the book, Dally is just rude and creepy, in the movie, he was more dirty and inappropriate. In the book we knew ponyboy’s parents were dead from an accident, but in the movie, in ponyboy’s dream it shows them getting hit by a train. A big scene difference everyone probably wrote down was that Darry in the book, slaps ponyboy which makes him run away, but in the movie he heavily pushed him backwards sending him to the floor. Near the ending I remembered them on the bus in the movie, I don’t remember that in the book.

  In conclusion the book and movie Outsiders are both similar and different in a few different ways, also the director and and actors did a swell job bringing the book to life.

Quotes To Keep In Mind💭

Quotes I Live By
  I’m not a super religious or Miss bright sunshine!! ☀️ But there are some quotes that have meaning to me. “Do everything, Regret Nothing”. You don’t want to be one and say, aw man, I with I’d done that😞. You wanna be the one that says, oh yeah, I did that😌👌. I try not to get worked up about the little things and focus on living me life!
 

“Today is the oldest you’ve ever been and the youngest you’ll ever be again.” This really stands out to me because I’m still young. I’m still just a teen but today, is the oldest I’ve EVER been, and I will never be this young EVER again.

Nimona ~ Book Review

Nimona

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

By: Noelle Stevenson

  Nimona was an amazing book, probably one of the best I’ve ever read. The book has 272 pages of beautifuly done comics, funny remarks, tiny creatures, and big monsters. This book was really fun to read I would recommend reading this to anyone!
  The story takes place in the medieval times, with a town, a villain a hero, and a side kick. Lord Blackheart (villain) is surprised with a girl that is a fan of his work. She said that she was sent but she really came alone. He starts to trust her and soon finds out she is... different from other people. He uses that to his advantage trying to tell the town about the government’s lies. In the end they all die. I’m just kidding, 10/10 would recommend you check out the book. Find out what happens in the end yourself! 😸

😎 My Secret Identity 😎

Identity

"Our identity is who we ARE not what we do."

  I am a daughter, a big sister, a best friend to about 3 people. I'm an Italian with a big Italian family, I'm a single little geek girl, and I love cartoons. I'm a robotics person, An actress, and a student. I listen to Twenty Øne Piløts and I'm in the skeleton clique XD. I'm a Brockstar for those of you who watch YouTube. I am a world 🌎 traveler, I've been all over the world, I'm a Cali-girl at heart but in reality I'm a Chicagoan. I'm a Futurama FINATIC, I'm a Food FREAK, a Duck 🦆 lover 😍. 

📱Sam and Colby📱

  I love to watch YouTube. The YouTubers that I watch the most are Sam and Colby. It all started when I was around Ten years old I saw a video of two guys, I thought they were hilarious.
  I watched YouTube occasionally for school or music. One glorious day I was just browsing through channels, videos, and reviews when I fell upon a channel... it was Sam and Colby. I knew they had looked familiar, so I clicked on their video. The video was literally called "First YouTube Video - Q&A". As they started to post more and more, I grew attached to them, I knew I would always love their videos. I would recommend watching their videos  if you don't already! *Sam and Colby just released merch recently. Colby’s says Take Chances and Sam’s says Beyond The Norm. They spent lots of time working with Fanjoy and came out with some great products. Snap backs, dad hats, hoodies, crop tops, T-shirts, and in the future maybe sweatpants.

☀️The Future 10+ Years From Now☀️

I'm trying to picture myself in ten years. My school life in highschool would be over. I hopefully would have graduated, and gotten a scholarship for college one way or another. For college I want to go somewhere in California. If that doesn't happen then I'm not too sure. Then I will be working on med school to try and become a Labor and Delivery Nurse. I would work in the NICU where all the little babies stay while they are at the hospital. I'm not sure where I want to live, yet. But what I do know is that I don't want to live somewhere where gang violence, high crime rates, and drugs are a big issue. I definitely want to live with friends, also a Chinchilla, and more pets. I NEED pets in my life. After I'm around 27+ I'll start thinking about kids, a soul mate, and a semi-permanent living place. This is where I see myself in 10 years.
