Holocaust unit creation
He knew that even with all his strength he could not over power or convince the cruel men. He was a leader, respected and loved he must not let himself fall. if he should fall then his people would follow. To be a leader is more important than being a survivor. If their is no hope then their might not be any survivors. If is up to him to encourage his people to move forward and live through his travesty. To be a Rabi dressed in his best suit and the4n stripped, shaved, beaten, and put to work like the others. This must confuse them but he must still lead and be strong to give hope to the others they must survive if not him.

War is...
War is hell
fields covered in flame
the smell of death
man shows no shame
war is the end
an end to life
suffering and pain
brought by strife
war is a passion
the passion of man
to cause so much sorrow
a general's plan
war is justified
by petty reasoning
excuses by morning
bombs dropped in the evening
war is inevitable
fought with sword or with gun
bodies on the ground
piled before the morning sun

Twisted
Living blue has just finished reading Twisted by Laura Halse Anderson. For the most part, the group enjoyed the writing's of the New York Times author. Opposing, it also had con's as well. Aaron disliked the usesless thoughts, but overal thought it was an entertaining story. In Haley's opinion, the book wasn't attention catching, and was difficult to follow. Haley also agreed with Aaron, by saying that the book was cute, and had a good theme. We reccomend this book for any group that hasn't had the chance to read it, and assure that the majority of students will find it easy to relate to, and easy to talk about.

Slave poem
The whip cracked
The hand smacked
Blood splattered
for them nothing mattered
Spirit's shattered
Chains clattered
Fates dreaded
for them everything mattered
The bidders raged
Their skin aged
Bodies caged
Minds Frayed
for us they mattered
They escaped and changed their fate
Hope was gained
Life was re-obtained
for them nothing but freedom mattered

I Poem
I am creative and I am charismatic
I wonder if my life will fall into place
I see another shadow of myself,
I am creative and charismatic
I pretend to be strong
I feel very impatient towards the world
I touch the texture of hate
I worry academically I wont make it
I cry because of memories of the past
I am creative and charismatic
I understand that life is too short
I say always trust in your self
I try to hide beneath my shell
I hope peace will come from with in
I am creative and charismatic

Journal Highlight 1/8/09
What I should have known when I got to high school was that everything was going to start changing. Everything was going to be different. My friends, my classes and my whole entire out look on life was changing as well. I took my immature attitude and threw it out the door. My new mind had finally arrived, it was much wiser but also very confused on how everything processed. My life was flying by with nothing to show for it yet. I wanted to figure out my plans in life, and achieve new goals. I knew it would take more than one year to arrange my future. I just never realized how fast my teen years were slipping through my fingers. I should have planed ahead, but I chose not too, and now my future is held in the hands of the beholders we call teachers.

I should have swallowed my pride when I was in 8th grade. It was at Powell County middle School. I was playing football at the time, and it was during a Bourbon County game. The game had ended, and we beat them pretty bad. I was in the bathroom changing out of my pads and jersey, when suddenly kid from the opossing team was in there with me. He was trashing our bathroom, so what was I supposed to do? He didn't have to be a sore loser about it, so...we rumbled. I'll admit I let to much hubris show, and by hubris I mean pride. I won, but I thought I was bigger than I really was. I won, but I shouldn't have taken actions into my own hands, or...fists.
