I have just read the article about how a balck 17 year old dies in responce to hoodies. Trayvon Martin lost his life becuase of George Zimmerman harming him and shooting him with a gun. Trayvon Martin was innocent and it was claimed that he did not have to die in this harmful way. George Zimmerman is from the united kingdom and it is believed that anyone wiht a hoodie on in the united kingdom is up to no good. in order to honor the death of Trayvon Martin the miami heat took a picture of the entire team with hoodies on to honor his death.
After me reading this useting article about Trayvon Martin I thought about how upsetting and horifying it is for a young teen to lose his life in this upeseting way I believe that Trayvon Martin was innocent and none of this should of have happened to any one in this matter of ways and decisions.I also believe that it was either racism or just being predijuce because of what Georege Zimmereman has done to Trayvon Martin.
I think I know what the feeling is like for Trayvons parents and family members because my uncle onced passed away and that was very upsetting. I believe that George Zimmerman is guilty and should go to jail because of this and should not be excused. I also believe that what he did is a very mean thing to do.

Test prep #2 informational/nonfiction writing
I have just read the article about how the Ohio State University beat Syrcase University in the NCAA March Madness. the Buckeyes are moving on to the final four to face off against North Carolina or Kansas. The Buckeyes did an outstanding job on posting their defence and not letting syracuse get by them. On the other hand Syracuse did a bad job on their offence. They had no chance on driving in towards the basket and they kept missing jump shots from different angles of the court. the buckeyes won the game with a score of 77-70 now the Bukeyes will be heading to louisville in new orlenes for the final four.
I believe that what is trying to be said about this article was that the buckeyes did a good job on their defense compared to Syracuse. The Ohio State University kept their defense very tight and Syracuse kept their defense very low and bad which is what caused Ohio's victory and Syracuses tradegy. Lenzelle Smith J.r who scored 18 points and was 3 out of 6 times behind the arc. Ohio also won because they did not give up throughout the entire game and tried to get a leed headstart in the game and to keep that leed throughout the entire game.
I agree in fact to everything of what has been said in the article because it is if a team works hard for what they want hey will recieve what they want for example. The Buckeyes wanted to win and move on to the final four and the did by playing very tight defense and not giving up. the ohio state then beat syracuse because of this. Syracuse also wanted to win but they did not work hard for it by doing a bad job on offense and on deffense.

Roger and his shooting of the cop (test prep 1 narritive piece of writing)
I have just started reading the book Dope Sick by Walter Dean Myers in this book the main character Roger Jones who is more known by his street nname Lil J is on the run from the cops so far Lil J is trying to escape from the cops because of the fact that he is being accused of shooting and murdering a cop. Lil J really did not shoot the cop but he hangs out with some drug dealers who shot him.Lil J is only about 16 to 17 years old and he is on the run from the cops. in the story Lil j has ran from the cops and he has snuck into an old and abondoned building. In this building Lil J meets a man known as kelly this man has seen Lil J in the news and is informing him anout that and what he has done. Lil J is also shot while he is running.
The types of problems that Lil J has so far is that he is on the run from the cops and that he is about to go to jail. some more problems is that he is shot and he is being accused he is also hanging out with the wrong people at the wrong time.Lil J is also in alot of pain and is very tired of running i dont think anyone would want to be in his place at that time that he has to go through all of those types of problems. I do not think that I could relate to the life that Lil J is going through right now in the book because I have never gone through something as serious as that. my responce to this is that if I was Lil J I would not have kept on runing like he is I would probably just find a place to sit and rest.
This book is very interesting and it would be recomended because Walter Dean Myers uses language and examples in the story so that the reader could see and conect to what Lil J is going through. I dont think I have ever been in as much pain in my life as much as the way Walter Dean Myers describes it for Lil J which is coughing and runing while leaving and driping a trail of blood behind you and trying to sneak in to an abondond house that smells really bad. I dont think I could relate to something this big and serious.

president snow and his uprising
I am currently reading the book Catching Fire by Suzzane Collins this book is very interesting seems to get better and better and even more interesting each time that I read this book. In this book the main important events that has taken place is that the main character Katniss has won the Hunger Games is visting all the districts in which members from those districts she killed. The president is known as President Snow he is the president of all the districts the president then makes a important descision that affects all the districts.
In this book I have relized and infered many different things about President Snow and Katniss. I have infered that President Snow will make a very big and major decision that will affect all districts even bigger then the decesion about the uprising. I also infered that Katniss will make a choice by giving up on visiting all the districts and she will try to escape from having to travel to all other districts. Katniss is tired because of that life of visting people from districts and people that Katniss has killed.
The decision that President Snow makes is the decision about the uprising this is a very big decesion that impacts many people throughout this book. In the uprising their are many people in groups of mobs and throwing bricks and other items and burning buildings. This book is very interesting in many ways thaat take place.
