I just went to the Internet Movie Database. (IMDB). And currently, the most popular movie is Indiana Jones and the kingdom of the crystal skulls. The movie earned a total of $151M
The Movie was about Indiana Jones Looking for a Crystal skull that was thought to be a myth. Ox, one of his old friends had been captured, and he saves him and finds the treasure of knowledge.
If i could pick any 1 movie to watch it would be Kung Fu Panda.Even though it hasnt come out in our area People from other places have very positive comments about it. they said its the best since shrek. currently the 3 movies that made the most money was Indiana Jones and the kingdom of the crystal skulls(151M), Chronicles of narnia prince caspian(96.7M), and Iron man ( 258M). I have seen 2 of the three movies that made the most money and i think Iron man and Indiana Jones and the kingdom of the crystal skulls were both worth their money but i dont know about chronicles of narnia price caspian because i havent seen it yet.

May 22, 2008

The less you relax the more stressed out you get… for example: this morning I left my painting at my house.. i called my house to see if my brother had left yet. and he had. so i told my little brother to get me the painting.. and he didn’t listen to me.. i was getting worried that i would be late for school but in the end i wasnt. see the less you relax, the more you stress you..HAHAHA

the less mcdonalds you eat the healthier you are.

the less you chop down tree the more oxygen we have.

the less you argue the happier you are

the less you respect others the more you will be disrespected

I just finished reading an article and watching a video on why theĀ  chinese are killing the tibetans. The tibetans invaded their area where the chinese had taken over. they were protesting.The tibetans were protesting to protect the chinese from taking over them….. The chinese claimed that the tibetans were killing innocent civilians and they were attacking everyone so the tibetans were killed

In the video it talked about how the Chinese were shooting the tibetans on their travels across the moutian. the Traveled to see and touch him… they would even risk their own life to see him. The Dali Lama is their spiritual leader….. The chinese said that they told the tibetans to leave and when they refused they were shot.

A Child Called It

May 15, 2008

I just finished reading a book called a child called it.. the story was a true one… i think it was horrible what this child had to go through.. i would never have been able to imagine that there are people in the world that will do such horrible things for their pleasure. It makes me realize how lucky i am to have a family that loves me and cares for me. my mom loves me and always wants me to do my best in everything that i try.. i cant believe that i once thought that my life was horrible because i got in trouble for what my brother did.. the kid in the story was only aknowledge as the boy.. or it.. this story really taught me how lucky i am and how unlucky some people are… This is for you dave pelzer.. i hope you can forget all of that and continue helping and doing what you think is right….
