Watched The Subway Hero Interview in class...
Today I was in class and I just finished presenting a story to my class about wether or not heroes had to risk their lives to be one. I was kind of confused at this point because different sources have told me different opinions...waiting to see when my journey fo ra true definition of a hero will be over... -
Roy Benavides (The true American Hero)
Today in class we learned about the greatest hero I can think of to this day. He was a soldier (of course im a military guy so I love this) and he was amazing in battle. He risked his own life to save others...Now I truly know where my definition is heading. (Eye opener...) -
Kristi Quillen...Didnt happen...so sad...
We were supposed to watch the interview of Kristi Quillen but it never happened because of weather warnings we had to leave the room...got a good taste of what English will be like my senior year though. -
Setting up my assignment.
Learned more about what the assignment is gonna be. Sounds exciting. Really interested in learning more about heroes. -
Heroes in the books we read.
We went over the books in class we had read and I think that some books really dont have a true hero in them. (Pride and prejudice for example...ech I hated that book) -
Began Looking for hero...
Well i wanted to find a hero that had something to do with the navy and of course I decided JOHN PAUL JONES! The father of the US Navy. I am so excited to learn more about him. -
Finally found a book...
Spent the last two days looking for a book and the dumb school library had none! I was so mad...then I went to the public library where I found plenty! School library you suck. -

Presenting Biography Passage
I presented a passage from my biography on John Paul Jones that I found really interesting. It was truly impressive. It showed sides of heroes that make them human.
