    I went Lake COmpOunce. This place is located at Connecticut. The time I left at was 8 something. It took like 1 hour.  I was talking to my friends that was sitting next to me and beside me. The trip to the Theme Park was fun. On the bus, I was taking pictures of people off guard. I was also talking to people on the bus. The movie I watched on the bus while going to the Theme Park was "Harry Potter." The bus ride was about 3 to 4 hours long. I felt bored at a point and then I started to take pictures of people. I felt bored because I was doing nothing at a point until I did something. 

    Once I got to the park I was waiting for my homeroom teacher to pass out the tickets so I can enter inside the Theme Park. When I saw the park I thought you can't compare this to Six Flags at all. The people that was in my group was Alex; Sekouba; Saikou; Grisaurys; Jhoanna; Ada; Thalia; Victor; Jonas; Javier; Joshua; and me. The teacher I went with was Mr.Osei. The first ride I went on was DOwntOwn. The people that the ride with me on the ride the first time was Alex; Sekouba; Jonas; Javier; Ada; Jhoanna; Saikou; and me. Roller Coaster rides I went on was Boulder Dash; Zoomerrang; and Wild Cat. Some other rides I got on was Bumper Carts; DOwntOwn; Saw Mill Plunge; and Enterprise. My 2 favorites rides are Zoomerrang and Boulder Dash. I liked the Zoomerrang because it goes backwards. I liked the Boulder Dash because it is like El Torro in Six Flags they are both like the same thing. Also, I like these rides because they go fast. When I went on the DOwntOwn Alex said El Diablo when we was going down. Also, Jonas was praying. Mr. Osei did not get on any of the rides except the Wildcat. The Wildcat was the only ride Mr.Osei go on. I did not eat nothing. 

     The last ride I went on was the DOwntOwn. That was the second time I got on. The bus ride was type fun to me because I took pictures of people who was sleeping. All those pictures of the people I took while they was sleeping was funny. The movie I seen on my way back home was "The Return of Batman." The most thing I liked about Lake COmpOunce was all the rides. Finally, I would like to go back for the summer.

Angela's Ashes

     Poverty affects the characters in Angela's Ashes because they are extremely poor. The little babies keep on getting because the parents can't afford to go to the hospital to help their baby. If I was the mother I would try to give them whatever they needed like food or try to get. Also, I would find a Job to help them. The thing that the mother did wrong was to marry the husband because he really does not doing nothing at all. the thing that the father did wrong was to become a drunk. 

   I think they live under these conditions because something went wrong with there family. The things that can help this family if they was to move somewhere else and they can get help from someone else or anyone from there family who has more than what they have. No I do not know anyone who lives in poverty like they do. No it is not worse because America is a big place

Experience doing IMOVIE

      The people that are in my group were Jonas and Victor. Working with a group is a little bit hard because we would argue. Also as a group it is hard because you want to put something or take something out, but then your group member don't want you to do that so we start arguing. Moreover, it is also difficult because when your partners are not here to help you and you are here working on it by yourself trying to do what you wanted to do and make it much better. The best part working with a group is that everyone from your group have different parts in doing your IMOVIE. That Jonas would do the IMOVIE, Victor would write the script, and I would answer questions and find pictures. The worst part working alone is that you need your group members to help you when you need help. Furthermore, working alone is a little bit good because you get to do what you want and you don't need no one to tell you what to do. There really isn't a worst part to making IMOVIE because at a point making if you don't know how to use it, it is hard to do IMOVIE. Finally, once you know how to use IMOVIE it will get easy.
