Spring Break

I thought it be nice to write about my spring break for fun. Spring break was a week ago for me and I thought it was fun to just not worry about homework and all this school work just nice to lay in. I basically just laid in bed and hangout with friends it felt nice sleeping in. Better then just going to bed at 11 and waking up at 6 in the morning. I had a blast but yet we only have a month left of school almost or two months. and I t has been fun and yet gone by soo fast.

The Hundredth Dove


When I  had read the short story on, “ The Hundredth Dove”  I thought that the author was really detailed into writing it this short story, I noticed how  since the story was based on the middle ages or days when people talked  when kings and such were around. The words she used made you think you were there and  yet I  could picture everything from what I had read. I honestly don’t like when stories start out when it seems like it’s not a begging and how it seems to be the middle of the story. You know how stories start out with a indrouction, but some start out as if they were talking about  in situation  and once you read more you start to understand.
When I  was towards the ending of the story it was  a little confusing to me. The reason why is because how the doves  could sing or talk, and I thought that when did this start to happen. I like how it made a little rhyme out of the singing bird, but the hole story seemed to be about how a hunter or such was getting 100 doves for the king and  I never knew how in the end  one got away or died. But yet I  could image what was happening but yet the authors details were very just put out there, like as if you were there.
The one thing  I would change about this story would be the ending, Why you might ask is because I would want to know what it be like in  a few months or such to know how it changed the hunters life besides  giving up hunting. I would like  to know how  it change  him and the way he lives, same as the king. Did he ever have that wedding all because there weren’t 100 doves . but then again it was a short story.
            The short story for some odd reason made me think of it as “ Shrek”  that movie, because  the hunter is  on a little quest to get 100 doves for the king to have a wedding. Just in the movie it was like how Shrek went to go get  the princess for the wedding.  All because  the middle ages made me think of that for an odd reason. But that’s how I relate to stories or such.  I still think the story could use some more editing to it. If I could edit it I would. Overall I hope this makes you think about the story if you agree or disagree about the story.

The one thing that helps me be creative and just helps me with everything would be music. I love  how music can help me  focus and it  makes me want to do what I want, I don't have to listen to know one but in my head when I listen to all types of songs I love. The songs I listen to  just make me relate to life and what everything is based on. I think that I would want to be in some part of music company when I am older. Music can just descirbe everything I have and feel.  I would say that I can just also express  my thoughts on a sheet of paper and write a song. I think that what ever song you can just think about can help you create anything you image. If you put it into a song.
