insurgent

Insurgent is the second book in the divergent series. In  this book the main character, Tris is hiding from the evil Erudite whom are trying to hunt people like Tris down. The reason Tris is unique is because she is divergent, this means that she can resist simulations given to her to test her strength. I liked the first book better but that does not mean that this book was bad. I reccomend that you read the first book instead of just reading this one.

Slice Of Life

I am ready to pass out.
I have hiked for an hour uphill with the hot  sun beating down on my back.
"Just a little higher" says my grandma or as I call her Gramcraker.
After five more minutes of walking we all stop.
"Where here" says Gramcracker.
I tilt my head up just enough so I can see what is in front of me.
It's a huge red rock the size of boulder with is covered by a canopy of trees.
"Were are we I ask my mom who is next me.
"We're at Tomato Rock" says my mom smiling.
My grandmother my mom and I sit down on a shady log  a couple feet from the rock.
We sip water and eat energy bars and talk for about thirty minutes.
Then we get up and walk right back down the gravel road down to our cottage.
I open the back door and as I do I feel a fresh gust of cool air which feels great.
I walk over to the couch next to my grandfather.
"Were did you go" he asked
I smile and say proudly
"We went to tomato rock."

slice of life

I look down into the water firmly clutching the metal bars next to me.
"Come on Sloan jump" says my friend Libby behind me.
She is tan with a blonde bob and freckles. She has jumped of the high dives hundreds of times this is my first.
I am terrified.
I trace my toe slowly across the board, it's rough like sand.
"You don't have to jump off if you don't want to" Libby says.
"You could walk back down if you feel like it."
I consider this and am about to turn around but then I realize You can't always run from your fears, you have to confront them eventually. I slowly walk to the board, I look down, close my eyes.
Then I jump.
I squeeze my eye shut for the few moments that I am in the air hoping that I don't die. I won't die I definitely will not
SPLASH.
The impact herts a little bit but once I am underwater it's soft and blissful. I kick down to the bottom of the pool and touch the smooth floor of the pool. I stay like that for a moment then float up to the surface to get the air that prevents me from staying at the bottom peacefully.
I burst from the water and hear the screaming and laughing of my friends, the smell of burgers and hotdogs roasting, and feel the warm summer sun on my face.
Libby stands at the edge of the pool.
"So what did you think"
" Let's do it again"
We laugh she helps me out and we walk away from the pool to the food stand to get milkshakes.

 There once was a man from Nantucket
who liked to pee in a bucket.
One day it fell over

Rest in peace dear man from Nantucket

Valentines day massacre

Bullets sound loud in the crisp morning.
 Panic stricken people run from the sound as if it were death it self standing before them in its great black robe.
A siren sounds as a single police car drives off  with the sound slowly fading.
Later dozens of cars stream into the parking garage which was the origin of the bullets.
 Police swarm the crime scene like ants analyzing the smallest clues to find how the shooters were.
A man is rushed into a car and driven off to the hospital.
Should he be nurtured because of his horrible condition or treated like the scum criminal he is.
It is hard to feel sympathy for your enemy.
Six other men lie on the ground.
Frozen in the thoughts and gestures the died in.
Are the really dead or just frozen for a very long time.

Divergent

I loved Divergent, I think that it was very intense and hard to put down. Divergent is set in a futuristic setting, Divergent is about this girl named Beatrice, who grows up in the world of five factions: Abnegation, Amity, Candor, Erudite, and Dauntless. Beatrice has turned sixteen which means she must choose a faction. Each faction stands for something( Abnegation: selflessness, Amity: peace, Candor: honesty, Erudite: intelligence, Dauntless: bravery).   Beatrice choses Dauntless and is soon caught in a mess including discovering that she is immune to mind control and most other chemical hallucinations. I would recommend this book to people who love fiction and want something that is hard to put down.

Poem



My cold hands turn on the radio. I flip through the stations listening to clips of songs untill I find the right one.
 Lately I've been
I've been losing sleep
dreaming about the things that we could be
but baby I've been I've been praying hard
said no more counting dollars we'll be counting
stars.
I love that song. It has a nice tune but what's with the baby part. Almost every song I have ever heard has baby in it. Why do people call the ones the love baby. "oh baby" or "I love you baby" after awhile it get stupid just like vampires.
 Vampire used to be cool and scary but now there sparkly hot shirtless guys it's they same thing with werewolves. I like what werewolves used to stand for. The idea of what they used to stand for: independence, strength, power. I am told that are some good old werewolf movies. I would like to watch them sometime.
I love old movies. They have beautiful music and something that movies today don't have. I love Hitchcock movies they best. they have great music and have the best plot twists although I have only seen 4. My favorite is Physco.
 Phsyco is about a women who takes money from her company and goes out into the world because she is unhappy with her life. She stays at a strange hotel and is murdered. Meanwhile her boyfriend and he sister are trying to find out what happened to her. There is a famous scene in the movie were the girl dies in the shower although i would watch at your own risk. I had nightmares about for three days.
Nightmares are so interesting, there so confusing but when ther in tour dreams they seem to make perfect sense. Like lets say say your running away from a giant toad and next thing you know your flying a gunship. I wish I could fly a gunship like the millenium falcon in Star Wars.
I have always wondered if Han Solo lived on that ship or he had a home on Tatooine.  I would hate to leave my home behind. I would miss my bookshelf, and my table, and my dolls i would hate to leave my dolls. I think that most of all I would miss my bed.

curse poem

May you rot until your horid stench kills all on earth.
May thou iPad be flushed down the toilet and never found.
May the sun nor moon shine on your face for the sake of others.
May thou face melt in a pit of boiling lava and may your scream of pain never be heard by man.
May you be eaten by the devil and come out into a deep dark pit you worthless ass.

To you I say one thing:
go across yourself you hideous wench.
this is for my little cousin Alice
may her go die in a pit
