Ancient tombs

The book i read is part of series called tomb quest this was the first book of the series it was called Tomb Quest: Book of the Dead. Throughout the book a kid names Alex has to go around with his best friend Ren to find his mom after she was kidnapped from her job at the museum by, an ancient Egyptian death cult because they want to open the door to the afterlife. Alex and Ren encounter some very interesting people on the quest to find his mom.
My favorite part about this book was when they venture into the manmade tomb in the subway, and its filled with traps and scorpions. I find it so facinating that the tomb had elaborate traps, and that it was modeled after actual egyptian tombs.

SCARIEST MOST DEVASTATING MOMENT IN MY LIFE!

The scariest moment of my life happened when I was seven, that day I watched the closest person to me get wheeled out of the house, looking the weakest I had ever seen him. I'll never forget the look on my grandfather's face as the paramedics took him away. I stood there frozen in the laundry room watching him leave out of the back door, I could see nothing but him everything else was blurry, all I seen was the face he made. He looked at me with pleading eyes, as if he was sorry. As soon as he was gone I followed my mom up the back stair hysterically crying I said, at just seven years old. “Mom I know he's gonna die”, through the couple of hours we stood in my grandma's house she tried to convince me that I was wrong, when I knew I wasn't. My mother sent me back to our house with my father, that day I waited for her to come back, I wanted to go to the hospital to see him. That day my mom told a small lie that still hurts to this day, she said "you're not old enough to see him, the doctors wont let you in unless youre 18". I believed her for years after that, but then I realized that she lied to me and kept me from seeing my grandfather his last few days. After a short while I forgave her, she was just trying to protect me, but it still hurts.

This is a photo collage video one of his friends made for him.

Facing My Fears


Throughout the years I have feared many things; dogs, clowns, the dark, and even people. I have faced these fears one way or the other, but the one fear I haven't gotten rid of is the fear of myself, It is more of the fear of myself failing. This fear overwhelms me and takes control, stops me from getting opportunities that could potentially better my life. I will learn to have that fear no more, I shall rise up from my own ashes like a fiery phonenix. I have realized it no longer matters if I fail, because I will try again as many times it takes in order to succeed. Preferably it would take one try but that doesn't alway happen and I have graciously accepted that enigmatic situation.
The way I will face this fear is to work though problems more efficiently, and double check to eliminate or lessen the risk of failing. If i do fail (ie. not reaching my goals) i will try harder either on my next project or redo the initial one to reach my goals.

I HATE VOCAB


Now I realise that hate is very strong word,  and I feel very strongly about this. I don't initially hate vocab itself but I hate having to incorporate it into my blogs.  There's a reason that I don't initially put it into my blogs is because it doesn't fit and if it doesn't fit then I don't want to put it in there and try to make up something so that it does fit. I know vocab is supposed to be used in every day life and that's why we are taught it but if I don't need to use it as of late why should I be forced to. Same goes for other things for example having to wear something specific to your culture or society because it's the norm just because somebody wanted to do it doesn't mean that you actually have to. Although vocab is for grades I already have a very  elongated vocabulary that can be added onto but I don't need it to be right now especially if it doesn't fit as to what I'm writing.  So I will leave that we shouldn't have to put vocab into our blog because it harshes creativity and just a few words.

Literacy Skill

Recently ive been writing more, I write about things that bug me, and how im feeling. I also write fiction. I write because I get to control my own world, im basically a god in my stories, anything I want to happen can happen in any way shape or form i want. Thats the satisfaction that writing brings me. Curently the book im writing is 
about a girl named Emery Bright, shes old enough to live on her own but she has no parents. Her dad died in a robbery and her mom died from a self inflicted gunshot wound to the head. Now she has to go on in life without much guidance.  I cant really go into detail about it because i know i have a few readers of that book that look at my blogs. I will become great one day.  My literacy skills can possibly pave way for greatness.

CARRY ON WITH THE WORLD OF MAGIC

This book was written by Rainbow Rowen, and its about a boy named Simon Snow who is in the world of mages,or all things magical, in a school called Watford. He is the most powerful mage in the magickal world. He was adopted by the head mage at 11 years old, from then he lived in the Watford dormes with his enemy Tyranus Basilion Grimm-Pitch or Baz for short.(Baz is madly in love with simon)  Simon comes back this year to watford for his eighth  and final year, this is the year he is determined to come to terms with his responsibility bestowed upon him since birth, to become the chosen one and defeat the Humdrum, the Insidious Humdrum to be exact. Throughout his final year he will face alot of challenges beside him his wonderful girlfriend Agatha, and his best friend penny. As well as the mage, who is the headmaster of watford as well as simons adoptive father.

My favorite part about this book was that it had alot of twists and turns, it also explores the concept of homosexuality , and finding out who you really are. Thats what i think matters most, self knowledge. To look deeper into yourself and to unsheath things you didnt know about your self and embrace them.
