Creative Pieces

Once upon a time there lived a boy named Jim. and well he was a strange boy at times but he didn't have much. No friends or much of family. It was him and his father, But yet his father was never there for him much. Yet this took place in the 1990s and Jim was in Middle school. he was in all the sports and loved to be apart of school and yet whenever he had an important event, his father was never there and well as Jim had gotten older he was trying to talk to girls but never had it. After years through Highschool and collage Jim had a great life ahead of him. He became head manigor of StarBucks.
He had just moved to New York, because he wanted to get away from his father and just see the big cities and have fun but he was always looking for a job because he wanted to live in New York City. Jim wasn't too sure what to do for a job, because he just got out of collage and well was just so excited to see the city so he took a day off of Star Bucks and went to travel out he saw everything the lights and even walked past Good Morning America. He just had a long day ahead of him. He even bought puppy as a pet and ofcoure named it Slim. So Slim and Jim.

Jim was in a coffee shop and saw a ton of help wanted jobs and just picked one that he thought would be the best to work for it was a journalist for New York Newspaper. He was apart of the school news paper club in highschool and was really good at it so he thought it would suit him best. He got a job there and ditch the coffee shop. Soon he had his stories on the 4th page and for him that was good but he wanted a story.

One day he was just in the park sitting and saw some sort of light and began to walk over and see a star. and he got out his camera and went home and wrote a sotry and even though his father wasnt proud of his work he had gotten his story on the 1st page of new york city news paper, soon he had become mangior and stayed in New York, and his father was proud that his voice was heard though and spoke the truth of his job.

The Back Door of Midnight

In the book I am reading is called, “The Back Door of Midnight” and it’s basically is about a girl that is finding out her father’s murder/death and she has no family left. But yet I found out that it was her uncle’s death, so that was a mix up with the book in the beginning. Well anyways I enjoyed this book because almost all teenagers go through family deaths and such and I like books I can relate to. The thing is I try to find a book to relate to and if you find a book with teenager going through problems and all like that. I will read them that because it makes me feel like I want to hear someone’s story and how they handle things with their problems.
I can understand how the girl in the book is feelings. She’s basically being brave about it and yet trying to find her uncle’s death and handling her aunts problems and apparently her aunt is psycho and needs help with anger. And in real life I bet a lot of kids have family issues going on and I love a book like this that I can just relate to and recommend it to someone. It got a little confusing at some parts and yet you still will be able to follow on what’s going on.
I think books like that can make people feel like we know what family problems are like. Like in the book it explains how she feels and how she is dealing with it, cause we all know how that is and yet I really enjoy reading the book and I think I am getting more into the books like that. And I think that I am going to start reading more books by the author because I want to know is what goes on in her head when she writes books like that. Because she knows things that can relate to other people and their problems.
I think that the message of the book is that you can get through anything by just being brave and keeping your head held high. And also I think that the message is just about how we all can go through problems like that in the book when the girl lost her uncle and I basically loved the book, so that’s all I have to say about it so far. I hope you read one of the books.

The Song I chose…..

I had chosen a song called “ Face Up” by Lights. The reason why is because it makes me feel when I have had a bad day I know I can go through anything and keep my head up and put a smile on my face. The song means how you can just show everyone what you are made of, how you can just hold your head high like there’s nothing to worry about. I have to say that is my favorite song I know and I like the nice guitar songs. Not fast and all you can understand it too. Lights has songs where you can relate to and it has life lesions in them to tell us it isn’t bad to have a bad day we just need to cheer up. The song inspires me when I have had a bad day because I know that it’s not the end of the world. And her songs are just about life and how we have struggles. I can mostly relate to all her songs and she is my favorite artist she has an amazing voice too.
