Imagery

The coolest sense you can have on halloween is your sense of sight. Halloween is great because you get to see the best costumes only one night of the year. Haunted houses, costumes, and decorations are all part of the exciting night were everything is kinda scary but really cool. Its great to have all five senses on Halloween, but if I had to pick one, it would be sight.

Scary Movies

The scariest movie that I've ever scene is the real Exorcist. Its pretty self explanatory why I don't like it. It had way to many scenes where things would pop out at you and I almost wet myself. I really don't like it when stuff pops out of no where or when people least expect it, the monster is right behind them. That was without a doubt a horribly scary movie. uhh.

Fear

The scariest thing I have every encountered is my dad. I love him to death, but can still shake me to my core when he gives me his look. I don't know if its because he's a dad or not but he has the scariest look in the entire universe. I feel like he can stare right into my soul when he focuses his glare in my direction. I'm never gonna be able to mimic that stare but maybe I can get close when I have kids of my own one day.

Reading and Writing

Life would not be the same without being able to read and write. The world world be a dark place to live in. Reading and writing are the keys to civilization as we know it. Without those skills our lives would be utter chaos with no chance at law and order. These skills allow us to maintain communication and read sign that are placed to keep us safe. If no one could read or write, the world would revert back to the stone age.

Spring

Spring reminds me of birth. Its like the earth and the trees and everything in nature is reborn. When that rebirth happens, everyone starts to feel better and magically gets into a good mood. There could be people that hated winter and just acted terrible all winter long, but when spring comes around its like they were touched by angels or something and now they act like saints. I just really like spring since it makes people happy while bringing back nature at its finest.

Beowulf

Beowulf was a good book for the first nine weeks Mrs. Matthews. I really enjoyed it. Over the summer I kind of got into reading classics like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde along with Bram Stoker's Dracula. The way they wrote was way different than anything I had ever read before but I thought they were very well written. I hope to read more classics soon and look forward to reading in English this year.

Common Sense

Wouldn't the world be a much better place if people used common sense. Sometimes it just strikes me of how many people go about things as if they don't even think about what they are doing. In my Financial Services class, we talked about people getting loans for 500,000 when they may make a combined income of less than 100,000. As time goes on its like people don't even try to use common sense anymore which is sad because its probably the best kind of intelligence you could have.
