Fat Boy Chronicles

          I am reading Fat Boy Chronicles. In my book the setting is in a high school with a fat boy named Jimmy, the entire book is journal entries in Jimmies journal that he has to write in for his English class. So far his journals are about his problems in school with bullying and situations with other people. The boy that the book is based on is from the Mason High school so I can relate because we are students of the same high school. The author was a co-author with the boy from Mason that is using this as way to stop bullying by sharing what he had experienced in high school. I can see some of the things that jimmy sees going on that he writes in his journal going on around me and the book really makes it stand out more for me.

           Click here to view my best blog post.  In my best blog post I did the character catagory. I picked the two main feuding characters to concentrate on in my post. These two characters were complex and they changed alot because of eachother in the book. They started out disliking one another but eventually it changes them and their personalities. throughout the book Ralph maintains the leadership position better than Jack but in the book Jack thinks of Ralph as unworthy and they never agree with one another. In my post I used a quote from Jack that shows how he was mean to the kids on the island and how he was changing the tides of him and Jack as leaders through the entire book.
            The goals I have for next trimester is that I want to work on my reading habits to try and get better at reading more often and not have it be such a hassle. With writing I want to be able to think faster and write whats on my mind on the paper faster instead of having to reword it when I go to write it down. This year I didn't read many times but when I did i would read alot because I had to do my blog, so next trimester i want to start reading more often. With writing I want to get better at making my sentences better and not repeating words and sounding unintelligent.
