How important is honesty to you? Is it more important than kindness? Share a story of a time you or someone you know was not honest and it caused problems or was 'too honest' and it caused problems.

Honesty has it's place in the world. Obviously being honest is important or else we couldn't trust anyone and the world would be a mess. There is a point where kindness is more important than honesty. You need to have a balance or else you might hurt someone for ever. I usually have problems with not being honest by what I don't say. Sometimes I should be more honest but I just let everyone be. I can't think of a specific time where I was too honest. I guess I try to be nice to people even when somethings wrong I try to make them feel better and I should probably give them more criticism.

The world is ending. There are natural disasters happening everywhere. You know that soon you will be stranded in your house with only the food left in your cupboards. You make a mad dash to the grocery store but everyone there is in such chaos that you know you'll only have time to grab one item before escaping with your life. What item of food do you grab?Describe what the food is, how long you'll wait to eat it, what it will feel like to know you're eating it for the last time. Will you share with your family? Will you hide it away until there's nothing else left? Will you eat it a little at a time or gobble it all at once? Describe every aspect of enjoying this last savory morsel of food.


A box of Twinkies! Did you know can live off of one twinkie for a month? There so rich in sugar and cream that your body doesn't want to die as long as it can taste the glorious deliciousness
taste of a Twinkie. A box of Twinkies has about 5 twinkies so I can either give one to each of my family members or hoard them all. You have to eat a little at a time or else the super survival power of the twinkie won't work and that's the hardest part. If me and my family couldn't find food in a month then the last little bit of our Twinkies would be excrutiatingly hard not to gobble down. If I had to enjoy the last savory morsel of food left I wouldn't even eat it. It would just be like a tempting little devil cause even after I eat it I will still be hungry and I'll worry about getting more food and it would be more painfull. Better to die sooner and without the after taste of a Twinkie left in my mouth gnawing at my stomach begging for more for mercy for something anything to eat maybe some old banana peels or scraps from a lobster buffet or even crumbs from a subway sandwich anything to stop the pain and agony of wanting needing food that you can't have. Better to die thinking there is no food that it doesn't matter.

Imagine that you have a superpower. The Power of Persuasion. You can convince anyone of anything. How would you use that power? What would you try to get, do, change? Would you use it for good? Or evil? Describe what the Power of Persuasion is.

I would use it for everything. I could get whatever I want and do whatever I want it would be the coolest power ever. I guess I would use it for evil I mean really if you can persuade someone to do anything it's hard not to be evil. I would make people dance like idiots and be my slaves and make me food and rub my feet. I would help the world for the better in some ways because I would persuade people not to go to war and I would persuade people to feed the hungry and do good to everyone. Persuasion is a real power that many people have and even though it's not as extreme as a superpower it does effect people and it can be good or dangerous. Take Hitler for example, he persuaded many people to support his cause and even though he wasn't very nice he used his ability to persuade people to follow him. There are example of people who have used persuasion for good like Martin Luther King helped persuade people to fight for what they believe in without violence and he was very important in helping blacks get equal rights. It's all about the persons intentions. Persuasion is used all the time and it's hard to disagree with a good persuader.

My letters are N Y B so my characters name will be . . . Nathan and he lives in . . . Yugoslavia and he is a Blackjack Dealer. He was born in Germany but a terrible accident involving toothpaste and carrot sticks left him and his family separated on 2 different trains as they were leaving for a family trip to Paris. The train took him to Yugoslavia and after falling down some stairs he was left with a terrible concussion that made him forget where and who he was. He found himself wandering into a casino and after a couple of rounds at the tables he won himself the jackpot. He decided to use that money to devote his life to the casinos since that's all he ever knew in his life (actually before the concussion he was on his way to becoming a rocket scientist and was actually quite smart.) His only friends soon became the cards and oh how he loved the cards and the smell of the smoke in the rooms and the people drinking and cursing there bad luck whenever they lost thousands of dollars. He loved poker cards so much he carried them wherever he went. He slept with them like they were a little teddy bear and eventually he married his beloved cards. One day as he was walking down the street in the bitter cold a beggar asked him for some money. Nathan being a gentleman gave the man 2000 dollars but the beggar didn't think it was enough and as Nathan continued on his way that evil old beggar pick pocketed Nathan and his most prized possession . . . His wife Carol Cards and he ate those cards right up because he was so hungry. Nathan after finding them lost moved back to Germany and became and professional bowler. The End

For my ultimate winter break I don't know what I would do. There are so many places to go so many things to see it's hard to choose just one. I guess I would take my friends and go somewhere warm cause I'm tired of the cold. Maybe I would go to that tower place or Africa or Australia or Jamaica. Yeah a beach would be nice so like the Bahamas or Hawaii or I guess realistically somewhere like California. It would be nice to just hang out and relax with friends. For New Years I would want to go somewhere where there's a big party like New York or Tokyo and party all night long with friends. I wanted to go see Avatar over the break so I would go see that too like on a huge special screen I don't know something cool like that. I would have lots of eggnog too because I love eggnog and it's only sold during the holidays so I always have as much as I can while it lasts. I kind of want to go to Italy and see cool places and eat Italian food and do fun stuff there. I would go to a basketball game and get really good court seats and maybe go into the locker room and meet the players.
