Our assignment was to pick a greek god or goddess.
Then we used our clues to put on twitter to find out who everyone was. Then we felled out a spreedsheet and wrote down who we thought people were, then in the end we wrote down who everyone was. My picture is Persephone standing by a tree[:
And that would be the end of my twitter persona assignment![;

Fancy White Trash Book Review

The book I just got done reading was Fancy White Trash by Marjetta Geerling
This book is about a girl named Abby Savage, she wanted to created her true love. Her plan was to make him into the perfect guy. She based this guy on her soap operas that she absolutely loved to watch. Abby has had a pretty rough life. She lives with five girls one guy and her mom is pregnant with three more children.

I really enjoyed this book. I think that Majetta did a very good job writing this book. Sometimes I couldn’t even put it down, I just had to find out what was going to happen next. I don’t normally like to read but to me this book was like I wasn’t even reading. I also think that this book is very funny I laughed out loud a lot during this book.

I really have no complaints about this book. I enjoyed the book

 

Quotation Assignment

Skill to do comes of doing: Ralph Waldo Emerson.
 ralph-waldo-emerson
 
Ralph was an American essayist, philosopher, and poet. He was best remembered for leading the Transcendentalist movement of the early 19th century. His teaching  directly influenced the growth of the new thought movement of the mid 1800′s.
 I think Ralph wrote this because, he has had experiences with being able to do something that he is told.
Also i think he wrote this because he was telling other people that how good your skill is comes by how much your doing.
 I picked this quote because I learn the best by doing a skill over and over til i finally get the skill down.
