This summer I'm still going be in the group home till September first with good behaviour. I'm going to be working for two months at Northwest corp on June 20th. The job is 7am-4pm and I will be getting paid 2,400 in those two months. Even though it sucks not to be with my family and friends for the summer,I'm still excited to work this summer that way I will have money in my pocket.

How I'm going to keep my reading skill level up in the summer is by reading a lot of books in the summer.

There was a loud crash and suddenly I heard another loud crash. When I looked outside my window there were three cars crashed and the drivers looked injured, so I called 911.

EDUCATi0N

The point for us to have an education is to get a good job and career. Without an education it would be really difficult for us to get a job, paying your bills, and food to provide for your family. Education is very important for us to have in many reasons. Without an education it will take you no where in life.

FAMiLY

To me family is to love and care our relatives. Family will always be there to help and love in our life, and friends will come and go. I consider everyone who are related to me as my family, because they have always been there for me and loved me through out my life. There are friends I have that I consider as family because I grew up with some of them and I trust them.

Tomorrow I'm leaving for a home visit and come back Sunday night. I'm going to hang out with my family and friends and probably go to the Portland fair. Monday I will be back at the program and kick back at the house all day and maybe go to the park and play basketball or football.

PAI2ENTiNG

One thing my parents did really well raising me was they showed me love and caring. They were always there for me and teaching me a lot of things. My parents did a good job and tried their best raising me to be a successful man in this world. There's nothing different I would do when I have kids my own.

The W0I2Ld

I think the things that is happening around the world is bad because people are either dying or getting hurt. Like what happened in Japan was terrible because a lot of people died and others got hurt in that disaster. The people in Japan got hurt emotionally and financially.

$URVEY

On my survey I scored 73.

Life

I would want to change being on parole and wanting to have my freedom back, because it sucks getting in and out of jail all the time and it effected my family a lot.

I took my girl to eat sushi on Christmas day. I thought it would be good, because my girl and friends told me it was good. I tried some out and I didn't like it.

5x12x11

No, I think advertising does not have an affect on me. It influences me sometimes because it is something that I would need, like clothing matching with shoes is an example.

Tv.

I watch T.V atleast 5 or 6 hours a day. My favorite shows to watch are  Fresh Prince Of Bel Air, George Lopez, and sports.

Thursday & Friday

On Thursday it was alright we watched a video and talked about the tsunami that hit Japan and made a lot of damage. On Friday I wasn't here because I went on a home visit.

NEWS

Yes, I do sometimes because at the program we watch the news every mornings. Yes, I herd  Osama Bin Ladens death and I herd it from the staff at the program.

PI20jECt

Kit and William broke up because he wasnt there for him when she went to court..

DLC READ 180

One thing the author is trying to show us with this story is everyone is different and we should treat people with respect and not judge people the way they look, Because karma is a B****!

 Lessons we could learn from the book is to treat others the way you want to be treated and not to judge others because everyone is different.

Plans for the weekend

Tomorrow I'm getting a 12 hour home pass not 48 hours because I have to stay back one weekend in this month of April. So I asked the case managers if I could get a 12 hour home pass this Friday and they said yes. So I'm going to be leaving from here at 6:30 in the morning to catch the bus at 7 in the morning. Then I will be coming back to the program around 8:00 on Friday night. On Saturday it will just be 6 of us at the program and we will be going to the Multnomah Falls early in the morning around 8.

I'm thinking of  making a  book review, but I'm also thinking if I should make a background music instead.

Danger

 Yes, I would help my friend out if he was in danger, because that's what real friends do. We help each other out when we need help and I will risk my life for a friend or family member. If a stranger was in danger I probably would help him or her too. The reason why is because if I were in danger I would need someone to help me too.

Different

 No, I think people in our community who are different don't get treated fairly, because people think they are weird looking or have a weird personality.
  For example, some people think homeless people are weird and scary.

Mercy is a teacher and has good skills of teaching children and Kit wishes she could be like her. And Mercy wants to go out with John, but Judith likes John and wants to go out with him too.

Lies

I think telling a lie is bad even if is a little lie. A little lie can hurt anyone and it can loose trust. For an example, I could start a rumor telling everyone that my friend got beat up. That could get him mad even though I was joking around and it could start drama and loose trust.

Kit

I think she wanted to go back because she wanted to see the witch.

Wheres my fav place to go when I'm alone

My favorite place to go when I'm alone is in my room, because when I am frustrated or need time alone I could go to my room and listen to music to relax.

My goals for this year are too pass atleast two GED test before school ends,those two test I want to pass are Language Arts Writing and Social Studies. My other goal is too get a high score so I could get out of this class and too develop my reading,and to work on those goals I have to give a 110% effort and not give up.
