Homework

If I were to write a scary story or to direct a horror movie, i would chose to direct a horror movie. My setting would be creepy. Maybe an alley, a dark one, with spooky noises and freaky shadows. There would be one tiny light that would show you shadows of mice, or people. The perfect effect would be fog, so you cam barely see far from you. Sound effects would include squeaks coming from he mice, and maybe drops of water falling in puddles. I can probably think of way more, but i need to be in the mood to think of scary things.

Respond to Prediction

In 2155, we'll have no more printed books.


I agree with this prediction because in the future, all books will be replaced with electronic things. For example, instead of carrying a book around, people will be carrying a little device that might open up into a thing that looks like a book, but its all electronic. Sure, people will still keep books that they had from their past, but they'll still use technology. I think that technology will take over our world. Life would be cool in this kind of situation. People would no longer need to carry around heavy books on planes or in bags, they will just need to carry around small devices. I totally agree with this prediction.

My Favorite Character

The character I am going to focus on is the main character in my book. Her name is Jessie Lou. She is the kind of girl who sits alone during lunch and hangs out with the un-popular boys. She is what you would call a Southern tomboy. Jessie Lou has an enormous crush on Conrad Parker-Smith, the soccer star of the class. Jessie Lou is shy, helpful, and courageous at the same time. For example, when she is around people, she never talks and she never really socializes, but she would help anyone who needs help, even if he/she is the meanest person in her class, and another example of her being courageous is when she is the one who volunteers to investigate an abandoned house in the woods, when 2 of her guy friends are really scared. She doesn’t have many friends, but by the middle of the book, she grew closer and closer with Conrad and one of his geeky friends Quentin. Jessie Lou doesn’t fit in because she isn’t a rich, posh girl, who thinks that breaking a nail would be the end of the world. She is someone who doesn’t care what other people think about her, and she has no interest in girly stuff at all, for example, she goes to school wearing dirty clothes that don't match, and doesn't care if she is made fun of.
