What's you favorite type of book?

Do you think you hate reading. Well actually you maybe just not reading the books you like. You see I always hated reading, but my sister will just keep on reading until you say "STOP." I could never read a book nonstop, even if my parents tried to force me. One time I just said to myself  " Why don't I try reading the last book of the Harry Potter series." And that's what I did. Once I finished the first page I was hooked on the book and I read nonstop. It took me just 2 days to finish an 800 page book. I then read another book related to HP, it's title was "Eragon". I immidiately got hooked. Then I thought to myself I don't hate reading, I'm not just reading the books I like. My favorite type of books are Horror, Suspense, Mystery and Fast Paced books. THAT'S WHAT I LIKE.

Summary of "The Giver" by Lois Lowry

  Communities,  each community there are strict rules, like language. Jonas feels apprehensive of ceremony of 12 saying this at dinner table.

Learning a Language, is there a point???

Did you ever think learning a language is hard. Well we all know we have to take a language in Middle School, but for what??? Is there a point in taking a language??? I mean, sure you can communicate with other people who don't know how to speak English, but they speak another language,and you know that language. But here in Indonesia you don't need to speak Spanish, Mandarin or French. The only language you need to learn is INDONESIAN!!!  It's a good thing I speak Indonesian fluently, so I don't have to learn it in Middle School, because that just means  EXTRA HOMEWORK!!!  Now I am currently to learn spanish, which I hate more and more!! :-{

Physch: Pilot

On Friday we watched an episode of Pysch.  Pysch is a show with mystery and comedy at the same time. On Friday we watched the first case. As you know in every mystery there needs to be a problem. The crime or the problem is, there was a family, the Mc Callums, a very rich family. Their son Camden McCallum was kidnapped for ransom money. Also another element in a mystery is that in every crime there must be someone to solve it. In Pysch it was Shawn and Gus. Shawn was actually the detective and his partner and best friend was Gus. Another element is that every crime needs a villian. The strange thing is that the villian was Camden and his kidnapper was Camden's friend Ourso.  Camden actually planned the whole thing out. His motive was to get some of his father's money. He needed the money badly, because he couldn't get any jobs.  In some mysteries there is a surprise ending and luckily there was a surprise ending in Pysch. The surprise ending was that Camden's father accidentally killed his son. And when Camden's friend Ourso wanted to drop off the ransom money he had seen that Camden's father had killed Camden. In the end Camden's dad killed Ourso and made it look like sucide. Camden's dog saw all of this happening, so that truly makes him a witness. The dog then realized that Camden's father was not a nice person, so the dog bit him. Camden's father tried to cover the wound with a bandage, but Shawn had already realized this. The wound acts as evidence.

His parents had died in a plane crash.  Alex thinks that Ian Rider works for a bank called Royal & General. On the day of the funeral some people from Royal & General come to Alex and tell him that his uncle wasn't a banker for Royal & General and the bank doesn't even exist. Ian Rider was actually a spy who was working for an agency called M16. The Royal & General Bank is a cover up name for M16. 

M16 wanted to recruit Alex, but he refuses.  In the end Alex accepts because he doesn't have a choice. They had to bribe Alex. His first mission is when they send him to infiltrate Sayle Enterprises. This actually a company that manufactures these computers called "Stormbreakers." The head of the project is a rich man named Herod Sayle. Herod Sayle wants to donate the Stormbreaker Computers for all the schools in London. Everybody thinks he's a her, but M16 are a little suspicious. That's why they want Alex to get to know Herod Sayle and see what he's up to.

In the end he finds out that Herod Sayle wants to spread out a computer virus so all the computers in London will have the computer virus.  Alex tries to stop but an unknown man named Yassen Gregorovich murders Herod Sayle and rescues Alex. Alex finds out that this man murdered his uncle Ian Rider... 

The 6 Elements of a Mystery

Crime: The crime is the main problem in the mystery.
As you can see here the crime is that the man, who is
the villain is threatening the cat who is the victim.














Investigator, Private Eye, Sleuths: The people that are paid 
to solve the crime, a classic example of this is Sherlock Holmes.                 















Villain, Bad Guy, Criminals: These people are the ones who commit the crime. In this picture the person at the right with the gun is the villain .


Victim: A victim is the villain's target, or one of his/her targets. In this picture it clearly shows that the victim is the one on the left.










Evidence: Items that are found by the investigator
to get closer to the mystery. In this picture it shows
that they found the bullets from the gun and they store it 
in the evidence bag.
























Clues: An idea that will lead the 
investigator closer to the mystery.  Finger prints
Foot prints, Hand Prints and Shoe prints
are one classic example of clues.
