Matt Damon on Mars

My favorite movie is martian and the main character is Matt Damon. And the reason it took so long to put up this blog post was because every chance i got i was doing my speech! But here is a couple  points on my favorite movie. If you haven't seen the movie, then SPOILER ALERT! This might give away some secrets about the movie ;) The main character is Matt Damon and the movie is around how he gets stuck on Mars after a dust storm. The rest of his team gets away but thinks he is dead. They later receive a message saying he is alive and the problems grow. I like the movie because of how amazing the acting is, the suspense and the amount of science that is used which could actually work in real life. Here is a photo of Matt Damon who just discovered he could grow stuff on Mars: Image result for sad matt damon on mars

Maximus the Lawyer?

Lawyer. I would love to be a lawyer. Defend people who have done wrong AND get paid? Cool. I love both of those things. Plus some people will do anything for a good lawyer, so, if I'm good I could get LOTS of money. But to be a lawyer, you need to study hard. For years. Not really my thing, but I would do it for the mon- I mean justice. According to the trust worthy internet, I should go for a well rounded education that hones writing. Write persuasive and  organized research writing, as well as well as make critical study of other peoples writing. Also read a lot if i want to keep up in law school. There are about a hundred other things I could write about to show how to prepare for law school. Some things I could also do out of school to help prepare for law school is read a lot and think critically of other people. Hmm.. i already do those things... The task sheet tells us to leave a question for our readers, and I think i know what many questions blog wide will be: What career are you honestly thinking of taking up when you are an adult?

Peace,

Chipped Tooth!

Two weeks was seven days short for a good holiday. Not that my holidays were boring. For the first week in the holidays i did a holiday program at a place that took five minutes to walk to from my house. It started and 9:30 and I left for home at around 3:00. During the holiday program I got to see the movie inside out, a first for me. I know its not the newest movie but its still one I haven't seen. During the holidays I also watched The Martian, a movie about Matt Damon stuck on mars, and the movie Pixels, where aliens bring old videos games to life and have their go at destroying earth. Pixels had Adam Sandler, Peter Dinklage and Kevin James in it, (All good actors if you ask me) but if I were to pick a favorite out of the two it would have to be Martian. During the second week some family and friends form Balclutha came up and stayed in our house and at one point there was nine people in a three bedroom house! four people had to sleep on the floor and luckily I wasn't one of them :D But during the holiday program, (Yes that thing I talked about in the beginning), I ended up chipping my tooth playing basket ball. Its a long story so ask me sometime at school when I look like I'm doing nothing (Which happens a lot) and I might take time to explain how it happened.

Peace,
