Update

I can’t really say much because the day just started but last night chicago blackhawks lost again but this time it was in overtime. They lost  3-2 so they did better then the last game. Just in case i forgot say, I want chicago to win so then it would be easier for Pittsburgh to win the Stanley cup. Anyway done talking about hockey… Today it snowed for the third time this may, it is really starting to make me mad. It always snowed on a tuesday too, so that is really wierd. well thats all the time i have to write. so bye

Something To Do

I really have nothing to write about but i am going to write anyway. Today is the tuesday right after may long weekend and during the weekend i went camping which was really boring. It was actually warm out but that does not really matter. I watched hockey when i got back, it was Detroit Red Wings and Chicago Black Hawks playing and detriot won 5-2.:( I also watched a different hockey game and it was Pittsburgh Penguins and Carolina Hurricanes that were playing and Pittsburgh won 3-2!!:). Pittsburgh is my favourite hockey team and they will probably make it to the Stanley Cup Finals this year like they did last year. Anyway i should probably stop talking about hockey because some people might not like it but class is almost over too so i have to finish writing right away and i have nothing to write about so i am going to finish this post okay bye.

Nassau Bahamas

This is a photostory I made about the city of Nassau.

The Wave Chapters 9-12

In these chapters Laurie was in the papers office having a meeting with all the editors of the grapevine. They had a due date of when the paper had to be published but no one had a story to put in the paper yet. She was asking people if they had the story for their part of the news paper but everyone tried to make up some kind of excuse about why they didn’t do it. People thought about making stories and they had all kinds of suggestions and one was to make a story about The Wave. Laurie was not too interested in the idea so she didn’t write about it. Laurie was at home doing her home work and her mom was still worried about The Wave going to far. The next day Ben was in the faculty lounge having a cofee then someone told him the the principle wanted to see him. It was about The Wave and the principle wanted to know all about it and he didn’t want any complaints about it. Laurie was sitting in her office and she found and envelope that someone slid under the door it was a note that said : This is a story i have written for the grapevine: I was with my friends and we wanted to know more about the wave so we decided to go to his classroom. After we walked out this senior was standing there and they asked us if we joined the wave yet, we said no then he asked us if we wanted to. Two of my friends said yes the other two said that they didn’t know and i said no. Then he talked the two friends that said they didn’t know into saying yes and i still said no. The person that was trying to get me to join got mad and said that if i didn’t join everyone in the wave would not be my friends. So i walked away. After reading this Laurie decided she didn’t like the wave so she folded it up. Ben got out of the office and saw brad handing out pamphlets. Robert was following Ben and Ben stopped and turned around and asked why he was following him. Robert said that he was being his body guard and told him why, Ben said ok and kept walking. Laurie was still in her office looking out the window and saw two  kids fighting, she noticed one was Brian and when the teacher broke them up he shouted out the wave motto and the other kid said aw, shove it. David came into the office and told her about how the other person was Deutsh and that he was trying to steel Brians place. Then he asked if she was going to the wave rally and she decided she didn’t want to go or be in the wave anymore so David got mad and broke up with her. Laurie was talking to her dad and her dad told her about how Deutsh was jewish and that was why he didn’t want to join the wave because it reminded him of what happened to all the jewish people in germany.

Response:

I wonder why when the fight got broken up Brian yelled The WAve motto, I also wonder why David broke up with Laurie just because she wouldn’t go to The Wave rally. Another thing i wonder is who was the person that gave the grapevine the story about the wave.

I think that The Wave is dumb because their doing all of this just because they like to be disciplined, well thats what i think. I also think that brian and Deutsh fighting just because he wont join the wave is dumb too.

I think that everyone that is in the wave is taking it too seriously and that they should stop it because there is no point of it. I also think that David is dumb for breaking up with Laurie just because she didn’t want to go to the wave rally.

My favourite part is when Brian and Deutsh got into a fight, it is my favourite part because i like watching fights because they are fun to watch.

I think the wave is going to get really big but only a couple of people will be able to stop it and i don’t think David will be one of the people that will try and stop it because he likes it alot.

If i was one of the characters in the book i would try and stop the the wave right a way before it got too big for me to stop it.

A part that surprised me was when David got mad at Laurie for not going to the wave rally and then he broke up with her.

Shark Arena in Nassau Bahamas

In Nassau there is a shark arena that you can pay to go in. You can go diving in the water with sharks for 45 minutes! This is a great opportunity to see sharks at a close range, and you can shark dive in almost every part of Nassau. Each and every shark you see is different, even if its size or designs on their skin. Here is a video of what you do when you go shark diving.

See doesn’t it look extremely fun? You can even through a string of shark bait in the water and watch them eat it right before your eyes, and you can even help feed the sharks. There is a lot of places to go shark diving and there is a shark diving centre in Nassau. If you dive down into the reef there is always sharks there just swimming along the reef. If you are going to feed the sharks they give you a full suit of chain mail and give you the bait at the end of a spear.If you need to read more about the Shark diving look here.

To me this sounds really exciting and i recommend everyone to try it, i also think you should feed the sharks as well. So if you read this post it is a great idea to go to Nassau and there is also a lot more stuff to do when you are there so you will not get bored.

Windows Vista, Is It Really A Lie?

A group of people said there were lots of lies about Windows Vista. Should you believe them? If you download the new iTunes 8.0, it will crash but you can do an easy thing to fix it. You will just have to reboot it and it will work again.

If you use HP printers on Microsoft Word the document you want to print will print but Microsoft Word will randomly pop back up again and it wont work anymore.

The user account control will make your computer slower big time. If you don’t use it right, you can get the blue screen of death and you will have to get a new computer.

There are many versions of Windows Vista and they are way too expensive to buy all the time also so that is another reason you shouldn’t get Windows Vista. The cheapest version is one hundred and twenty-nine dollars.

On the Vista laptop, there is a dual monitor that is easy to use. When the tool bar is at the top of the screen,  it stays there but people think that it will make the laptop crash.

In my opinion I think all of this is a lie because I have Windows Vista and iTunes 8.0 but my computer still hasn’t crashed therefore this is all a lie and I don’t think you should believe this. Your opinions might be different from mine.

For more information click here.

So if you think all of this is important to you i think you should figure out if this is all true but i personally think this is all fake but it could be true.

Here are some pictures I found on the Web that shows you some of the more common versions of Windows Vista.

Nassau Bahamas

We are doing a project about living in other cities that are out of North America. I am doing Nassau Bahamas and it is just out of the USA and it is a really big city that almost takes up the whole Island. It only cost about 900 dollars to fly there from Ottawa. Houses there cost about 600 000 dollars and that’s for an average house for a big house it cost over one million dollars. We have to figure out if it would be a good place to put and office for a big business. We have to figure out the positive things about that place and the negative things about that place. The temperature is usually warm and the airfares are cheap. That is all i have to say about this project.

Response Journal 1

In this chapter Laurie was sitting in a chair chewing her pens waiting for the bell to ring and then she walked down the hall and saw her friend Amy in french class looking really bored so she decided to make a funny face so she would be happy. She did not want the teacher to see her so she stood where he could not see her. Amy saw her faces and almost started laughing but she had to cover her mouth so she wouldn’t. Amy started making funny faces too and Laurie wanted to make her laugh so she turned around to create suspense and to make the face then when she turned back around the teacher was standing right in front of her. She got embarrassed and Amy walked out and they went to their next class after the bell rang. Their next class was history and Mr. Ross was trying to figure out how to work the movie player then he asked one of his students to do it. The movie started and they saw all the dead bodies layed out, the smoke of burning flesh, the peoples legs where the knee was the widest part. After the movie ended people had lots of questions and most of them were questions that he did not know the answers to. The bell rang before he could say something and most of the people poured out of the room but the people that were most effected by the movie stayed for a little bit longer. David (Laurie’s Boyfriend) waited for Laurie but she did not go so he ran to the cafeteria and got food. By the time Laurie got David he already ate most of his food. Two people were coming from different directions and asked if they could sit there. After lunch they went to a room and locked the door because Amy was smoking and she did not want to get in trouble. Two people came to the door pretending to be the principle so Amy dropped her cigarette and tried to find gum and Laurie slowly walked to the door to open it. After they opened it they realized it was just their friends and Amy got mad at them for making her waste a cigarette.

Response: I wonder why some of the class mates were so effected by the video, because it happened in the past it should not happen again. I think that they should not be that effected it was only something that happened in the past and most of the people killed were Jewish and that’s what they were going to do. I think some of the characters are really smart because they actually understand the video and some of them sleep through it. “Were all the Germans Nazis?”  i think it is meaningful because you would think that all Germans are Nazis because they did not do anything about the concentration camps. My favorite part of the book was when the author explained what happened at the camps. Next i think they will do an experiment and figure out the answer to the questions. The way I would react is i would think the camps were really sick. A part that surprised me was when Amy was smoking in the room. In the chapters i read so far the author did not use any strong imagery.

Letter: Dear Laurie,

I was wondering why you were so upset when you saw the video, was it something you saw or was it just the feeling you had when you saw it? Another question i have is why wouldn’t you go with David to lunch, I mean he is your Boy Friend isn’t he? And for a last question i would like to know why you let Amy smoke in your office, Just because she is your friend does not mean you should let her smoke in there, you almost got caught. That is all the questions i have.

 

sincerely,

Josh

Just Another Post

Hi, earlier today there was a meeting for the HBMS miners. They announced that the mine was shutting down until the prices went back up! This means lots of people might have to move to Flin Flon, which will almost cut Snow Lakes population in half. I dont really mind if i move to Flin Flon cause i will still get to play hockey and thats good. Anyway all of the south african people that just moved here are going to have to move to Flin Flon. That would really suck to move somewhere again. Well now that im done talking about that i will talk  about something else, I was looking at Alysa’s Blog and she has over 22 000 hits its like alot. I still only have under 1000 but im getting closer, but its taking along time. Most people have under five hundred hits but thats cause they never write any blog posts. Anyway i have to get back to class write away so Bye.

Sites To Rss

I was looking for other sites we could rss and i found a really good site on pollution. It is about how Antartic is warming because of all our pollution for stuff like power plants  and oter pollutions. I also found a site about technology, i think it is good to rss beause it is just like dvice. It is updated alot and it has a picture or video and a post explaining it. And I found one more site about Animal Abuse. It is good because it has a really good explaination and video about how they abuse animals and sometimes they even skin them alive. These are the only sites i can find.
