Prompt 1

In the first section I read i m book I have noticed that the main character Slam has been through a lot. He was forced to move into a new area with his mom. Growing up in a hard neighborhood he was tough and with that he had a great skill. He played basketball, this took him far. Moving to a new school he had to change a lot. His attitude his everything the new school that he was going to was totally different then his old school there was a lot more white people that he wast used to being around and the kids were a lot smarter at this school.

Sins

Amir being the one that always is the one to fight back take a stand and be the man has one of the biggest sins on his back. After watching what went on to his friends Hassan and not standing up for him watching everything that went down without saying a word or at least trying to make it come to an end. Really needs to be amended because mainly because no one knew he was there and that he even knew it would be much more worst if he didn't do anything which he still ended up doing. I don't know how you can look at your friend the same know it was all your fault that your friend got sexually abused and you was there to watch it. To me there isn't really much that can be done to make it better like once it happened its over with you can't go back and time and then prevent it.

Mistakes

There was this one track meet that I was running the four by four hundred relay and it was so late at night. My body was slowly shutting down, and I was so exhausted. But in my mind I knew i could knock this out with easy but my body was telling me no. So as my race was coming but I was leaning towards my bodies side not to go all out in the race. So it was getting closer and closer. Soon I was on the track and it was either go out or not run it at full speed. Before I knew it the gin went off so I jogged it then go in so much trouble by my coach because we had the opportunity to easily win the race. I regret no running at my best because I never will know when my last race will be.

Slam

Walter Dean Myers wrote Slam! It won a Coretta Scott King Award, American Library Association Best Book for Young Adults, and a New York Pubic Library Book for the Teenager. This book should be pretty interesting because I like sports books and the title really pulls me in to read the book. What does slam mean? Why is the kid looking through looking through the fence. The back of the book talks about a 17 year old boy named Greg Slam Harris the was the best basketball player. It talks about how he wants to make it to the top but things will get n his way like his grades. Then he has to face his life without the ball in hand.

Lets Get Em

Patrolling the lands of the Iranian territories Srg. Marshall got an call for an attack on the enemy lines. At first he was walking around the area guarding their fortress from invaders when he received the call. With all the rigid terrain and all the huge rock he managed to leap over all of them without injuring himself. He sprinted like he was running a race, he was the best sharp shooter they had for that platoon. The calls kept coming in Srg began running at his fastest not knowing how far he would have to run. On the speaker his command chief gave him directions by land marks. Marshall began to get really exhausted with his heavy boots that were also being weighed down by all the mud he was running through he finally reached the action jumping right into the heat of guns firing left and right.

Do no harm

Thinking about the quote I sort of agree with it, because for the evil to triumph good will have to let them pass. This makes me think of some people fighting, if there was on person that gives up then the other person would win they would feel great but knowing that there wasn't any harm done between the two really over comes weather who won or who lost. So when it really comes down to it good is the true winner letting evil bask in it so called victory.

What to do

When I make a decision I think how will this affect me later on. I look at situations like if i go left what would of happened if I went right and what is different from going left then the right side. I am a very critical person that thinks about the good and the bad from everything in situations. I would have to look at both sides of the story before I make a decision. Even if I make my decision I still think back about did I make the right one. Then to situations like college I look at the price, place, and mainly the location of where it is at. Those are the main factors in making my decisions for college.
