Over The Long Weekend

Over the long weekend I hung out with my family and hung out with my mentor. On Saturday I went to Portland with my sister's family to go shopping. Sunday I went to church in the morning then after church I hung out with my girl. Monday I spent most of my time arguing with my girl about some problems that are going on between us. Now it's Tuesday and I'm here in class, bored.

My Opinion on Secret Life Of Bees

I don't like this book because it is really confusing for me. I like books that are easy to understand and this book is hard for me to understand. I also don't really like this book because it goes from one thing to another, and I like books that just go straight through.

The Queen Bee

I do not remember who the characters are and what they are like. I do pay attention when you read it's just that its hard for me to keep all the information in my head so I don't remember anything.

Honey Bees

1.They make plenty of honey so they will have plenty of food for times when flower nectar is unavailable, such as winter.

2.Honeybees have a bright color pattern to warn potential predators (or honey thieves that they have a weapon to defend themselves.

3.There is only one queen in a hive and her main purpose in life is to make more bees. She can lay over 1,500 eggs per day and will live up to two to eight years.

Secret Life Of Bees

1.They lived in a Pink house that remained a scorched shock on the back of her eyelids.
2.There is a pink light shining off the house.
3.There are June bugs all around.
4.There was a picket fence.

She writes differently than I would. If i were to write a story explaing how my house looks i wouldn't write exactly everything, I would just write the important things people want to know about the house. I would use different words. I wouldn't use so much detail like she did.

ABOUT THE HOMIE RUBEN

My homeboy Ruben is a funny person. Every time we are kicking it he's always cracking some really funny jokes. I don't think there is ever really a time when he can be serious. He is a caring person. Whenever somebody that he knows is in need of help he's always there to find a way to help them with whatever they need. He has a lot of respect for others. No matter who it is he respects them but if they disrespect him in anyway then they lose his respect. He hates school because he says it's boring, so he never goes. He enjoys playing basketball. He plays on a city league. He lives with his grandma and grandpa in Canby. He is 22 years old.

Civil Rights Movement

The Civil Rights Movement was a worldwide political movement for equality before the law occurring between approximately 1950 and 1980. It was accompanied by much civil unrest and popular rebellion. The process was long and tenuous in many countries, and most of these movements did not achieve or fully achieve their objectives. In it's later years, the Civil Rights Movement took a sharp turn to the radical left in many cases.

The civil Rights movement was worldwide. The laws were passed somewhere between 1950 and 1980. The process took a long time. In the civil rights movement there was something that happened when Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat to a white person on a city bus in Alabama. After all this happened there was a boycott and there was also a big march that they did to show that it was wrong that Rosa parks was arrested for not giving up her seat to a white man. The legendary events, however, did not cause the modern Civil Rights Movement, but were instead important moments in a campaign of direct action that began two decades before the first sit-in demonstration.
