A Tricky Kid at his Best

On the streets of a petite town in the southern part of the U.S. you can find one young boy conning, and using kids from left to right. In the short story “The Glorious Whitewasher”, by Mark Twain, the author describes the life style of the young American heart in the 1800’s.
Down in the most joyful place on earth, Disney World of Orlando Florida is a place called Tom Sawyer’s Island. It is just off of Main Street USA in the Magic Kingdom Park. I can connect Tom Sawyer’s Island to “The Glorious Whitewasher” because the main character in the short story is Tom Sawyer, the king of the hustle and bustle on the streets of a small town in the southern United States in the early 1800’s. One can also connect the short story to The American Experience at Epcot in Disney World because the hosts are Mark Twain and Benjamin Franklin. Both of the American icons talk about how admirable Mark Twain’s writing is, of course the book Benjamin Franklin says that is extraordinary is Tom Sawyer and “The Glorious Whitewasher” is a chapter of the book Tom Sawyer!
In “The Glorious Whitewasher”, Tom Sawyer tricks many kids to get them to do his job. In the short story “Stolen Day” by Sherwood Anderson the boy skips school because he is jealous of a boy with a deathly sickness. Both boys skip something they’re supposed to do.
“The Glorious Whitewasher” has a romantic beginning. The beginning says it was a Saturday morning fresh with bright and life, there was a song in every young heart. All throughout the short story there is happiness and joy.
The naked truth is always better than the best dressed lie. This quote was said by Ann Landers and I can apply it to the short story because Tom Sawyer lied to all the kids that were tricked by him because Tom said he loved to whitewash his fence. It would be better if he said “hey guys I hate this job, but will you do it for me?” That probably wouldn’t have worked but it would be better because he wouldn’t have lied and sinned.
The young heart of the 1800’s was just as nice as or possibly nicer than the young heart of now a, days. Tom Sawyer is one of the trickiest characters of all time.

Anything is Possible

Have you ever been in a time where you don’t think you can do something, but then you try and succeed? The quote “your life is what your thoughts make it” is by Marcus Aurelius and he could truly say that. This quote teaches you that you can do anything you want in life.
In 5th grade my brother tried out for the select baseball team. He didn’t make it and he was bummed because he told me he was going to be the best player. Well, he got a call back and made the team after the 2nd try out. Once 7th grade came along my brother was batting clean, leading the team in home runs with three, and had a .853 batting average. Unfortunately my brother quit baseball because he didn’t like it anymore. The varsity baseball coach at Pewaukee called my brothers cell phone and told him he could be the best baseball player to come through Pewaukee possibly. He went from not making the team to possibly being the highest rated baseball player to come through Pewaukee.
In 6th grade our first football game came. Everyone thought we weren't even going to win a game that year, but before the game our coach said we needed a leader. My third run and fourth run I scored a touchdown. After the game my coach told me I filled the leader spot that game.
What that quote really means is you can conquer anything you want if you put your mind to it and think positive about it. Just like Marcus Aurelius he said he would expand the Roman Empire and look what he did aggrandized it over hundreds of miles. If you want to do anything just put your mind to it and believe you can, then it’ll come true.
If you set your expectations high you can do anything. Just like Marcus Aurelius, my brother, me, and many other people in history.

Milk and Cookies Writing Piece

When you think of milk you think of cookies, when you think of cookies you think of milk. On many cookie packages there’s a nice big cup of splashing white milk. They’re both great alone, but when they’re together, they’re undescribable. Soft Chips a’ Hoy cookies are the best cookies with skim milk. Even though everybody says Oreo’s is milks favorite cookie, Oreo’s truly aren’t. Chips A’ Hoy were made for milk and milk was made for Chips A’ Hoy, I guess you could just say they were made for each other. It is just destiny.

The Most Magical Place on Earth

Down south in Orlando, Florida is the most magical place on earth. Traveling to this place is always a great time and you’re sure to have fun and a lot of good laughs. This place is of course Disney World, it’s: the most magical place because dreams are made and fulfilled here. Disney World is one of, if not the best vacationing spot in the America.
The major icon of Disney is Mickey, but the main icon of Disney World is the Magic Kingdom Park. It is the main park out of the four parks. Stretching over 107 acres according to disneyworld.disney.go.com it has six different sections of themes, including, Main Street U.S.A., Adventure Land, Frontierland, Liberty Square, Fantasy Land and Tomorrow Land. Each section of the park is special in its own way because not one thing is alike in the sections.
In an episode of Full House Danny, Jessie, Michelle, Stephanie, and D.J. are going on a trip to Disney Land in California, but an awful event occurs. The trip is canceled because of too much fog in the air for them to fly. Well, when I was in fourth grade my grandpa, the guy who pays, had gallstones. My family couldn’t go because of my grandpa. Both the Full House family and my family were bummed because Disney World and Disney Land are great places to go and to be.
When people talk about Disney World they talk about how many times they’ve been there, but when people ask me, they almost go in shock. I’ve been there 19 times and I am going to make it 20 over Spring Break this year. As always before this special trip, I can’t wait to go and not to be able to go is a heart breaker.
The great Disney World in Orlando, Florida is better than Disney Land in Los Angeles, California because Magic Kingdom’s parking lot takes up all of Disney Land in California. Disney World has four parks while Disney Land only has one tiny park. The more parks and bigger area of parks equals more rides which is a huge plus and a big factor of why Disney World is better than Disney Land. In California, Disney Land only has two tiny hotels without themes. Disney World is number seven out of ten on the list for top ten vacation spots in the World, says travelchannel.com, if people see that it is number seven, then that will persuade people to go to Disney World.
The trips that I’ve taken to Disney World I know are the best because whenever I’m down in the dumps, if I think of Disney World, it always puts a smile on my face. This is because I’ve had so many amazing memories in Florida. I’ve been there so many times that for every one bad time I’ve had in Florida, there are ten good memories. One good memory is puking up my blue slushy on the side walk of my resort. That is a good memory because my puke was there for the whole week and it made me laugh whenever I saw it.
Walt Disney’s, Disney World is the best vacation spot in America. I love Walt Disney World so much; everyone should have a chance to go there in their life time.

Where You Are Lyrics

Can it be I stayed away too long?- (he didn’t come back soon enough)
Did I leave your mind when I was gone?- (were you not thinking of me when I was gone)
Well it's not my thing trying to get back- (he isn’t very good at coming back to her)
But this time let me tell you where I'm at

I wanna wanna be where you are
Oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Anywhere you are- (he doesn’t care where she is, he just wants to be with her)
Oh oh ohhhhhhhhh
I wanna wanna be where you are
Oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Everywhere you are- (he always wants to be with her)
Oh oh ohhhhhhhhh

Answer this...
Could it be I should have came back in an orderly fashion-(should he of came back with a plan of some)
Girl I'm just asking
What happened to the way that we used to be?- (he wants her back)
Up late at night counting stars just you and me
Now I'm the star you feeling like you losin me
But I won't let you go, you don't know what you do to me- (she makes him happy)
Like my religion you always stay true to me- (she never lets him down)
That's money over women, but you got glued to me- (she wouldn’t leave him)
I just want you back to light rooms with me
And in the back of my mind, jump a broom with me
Nah wait it's too soon for me
I just want some space in your heart, is there room for me?- (does she have another love?)

Can it be I stayed away too long?
Did I leave your mind when I was gone?
Well it's not my thing trying to get back
But this time let me tell you where I'm at

I wanna wanna be where you are
Oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Anywhere you are
Oh oh ohhhhhhhhh
I wanna wanna be where you are
Oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Everywhere you are
Oh oh ohhhhhhhhh

Aye now that I'm gone I gotta testify
I wanna be with you and I cannot lie- (he wants to be her man and he doesn’t even need to think about it)
Looking at my phone another text inside
Saying how you miss me like I just passed by
Now I'm out on the road like the Jackson 5- (he’s going over to her house)
Say you happy for the kid, but when I'm gone you crying
When I reply you get that high
Like that's my swag girl I'm just that fly- (he’s so beast)
But you gon hold me down like gravitation- (she’s controlling him)
Cause back at home we was passed the dating- (they were married or engaged)
Now I want to see your face and I passed the waiting- (he can’t wait anymore to see her face)
Thinking bout a ring got the pastor waiting- (he wants to marry her)

Can it be I stayed away too long?
Did I leave your mind when I was gone?
Well it's not my thing trying to get back
But this time let me tell you where I'm at

I wanna wanna be where you are
Oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Anywhere you are
Oh oh ohhhhhhhhh
I wanna wanna be where you are
Oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Everywhere you are
Oh oh ohhhhhhhhh

It's 3rd back again
And I need you baby like oxygen- (he needs her to survive)
If I start from 10 telling you how I feel
By the time I get to one you would know that it's real- (it’s true that he loves her)
10 is your smile I ain't seen in a while
9 you're all mine and I love your sign
8 is no debate me and you look great
And 7 keep letting me know to have faith
6 is a kiss that I leave on ya cheek
5 no lies and I put it on a beat
4 so much more that we got to see
3 you just can't be without me- (she needs him)
2 me and you always have a ball- (we always have a good time)
1 I'm gonna call so don't ask at all

Can it be I stayed away too long?
Did I leave your mind when I was gone?
Well it's not my thing trying to get back
But this time let me tell you where I'm at

I wanna wanna be where you are
Oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Anywhere you are
Oh oh ohhhhhhhhh
I wanna wanna be where you are
Oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Everywhere you are
Oh oh ohhhhhhhhh

Home

Over the previous two years many people have lost their job. Possibly due to there’s or the company they work for’s money situation. In Home by Gwendolyn Brooks, he tries to show how some lives may be a struggle for some people with not a good supplying job.
While 2008 was happening a terrible thing occurred. Roughly 2.6 million people lost their job in America says, CNNMoney.com. This means 7.2% of people in America lost their job in 2008. That has been the most amount of jobs lost since 1945. In 1945 it was a dramatic affect cause by World War II.
My dad lost his job in 2008. I know how those kids feel of the people that lost their job. Believe me, it isn’t good. When your parent or parents lose their job you feel reliance being lost and uncertainty. Those two feelings are never good under any circumstances.
In the book the author vividly describes Helen to be the ordinary girl. Helen won’t even bring her friends to her house because she’s shamed. Well you should never be embarrassed by where you come from. Then later in the story she learns to not care what other people think and wants to throw a party at her house.
In the story Home, there is a lot of symbolism from comedy. The first paragraph is a comedic introduction. It talks about sitting on the porch with family. The porch, a safe and comforting spot; it is noon which is also a comedic symbol. The robin is an assuring symbol of spring arriving. It is also a symbol of comedy, but none of these are the funny comedy you’re probably thinking of.
The story Home, is a good story and may teach you a lesson. Also many kids may be able to make a connection to the story. America is striding for greatness; one way of getting there is decreasing the number of unemployment.

Patriotism Essay

What does patriotism mean to you? Does it mean you like the New England Patriots or does it mean you are loyal to your country? It should mean loyalty to your country.
The definition of patriotism is devoted love, support, and defense of one’s country; that is the patriotism that everyone should have. Say someone does illegal drugs you are not loyal or patriotic to your country because you broke a law. Everyone that lives in America should be patriotic because you should be loyal to your homeland.
If you break a law you are not a patriot because you did not respect or listen to your countries rules. Say you smoke marijuana, drink and drive, or murder someone you are not a patriot. You shouldn’t break the laws of United States of America.
Martin Luther King Jr. and George Washington are two very big patriotic icons. Being a patriot is important because it means you are a nice person to your country. Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream that black people and white would be treated in equality. George Washington led our young country in to battle and won freedom from the mother country England.
Being patriotic is important because if you become patriotic it may help you out with other things maybe like, someone sees you do a good deed they want to be your friend. You should also be patriotic by liking the New England Patriots but that is off topic. If you live in America you should have to sign a document of some sort every year that says you will be patriotic or loyal to your country that year.
Everyone should be loyal to your country because it is a good thing to do. Most of the time if you are not you’ll go to jail. So it is your choice good deeds live free, bad deeds means you are in jail.
