"Full circle" is my favorite of the short stories that I have read. I enjoyed this book because it had suspense and kept me guessing. A girl crashes on the side of the highway. A man in a blue pickup truck looked like he was trying to help but then ran away. Kinsey, the main character, tried investigating. She visited the place that the girl worked at. The man that owned the store said that the girl was always harassed by a man in a green van. Kinsey finally visits the girl’s roommate at her house, but no one is home. She goes around back and in a garage she sees the blue pickup truck but it is stripped of paint. In the truck she finds a gun. She now knows who killed the girl and as she is pulling out of the driveway she sees him in his van. She chases him in her car until he crashes on the side of the highway. This story is ironic because the man died on the same spot on the highway that the girl he killed did. I liked the character of Kinsey because she is smart and persistent. When she didn’t find the criminal the first or second time she kept trying to find him or her.

My favorite book as a kid was Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss. I liked this book because it teaches kids good life lessons. First it teaches them to try new things in the book because Sam offers green eggs and ham to the other character multiple times and he keeps saying no. Finally he tries them and really likes them. Second i'm not sure if anyone else got this out of the book, but I got be persistent. Sam offers the other character time after time and keeps getting rejected, but finally he says yes. Those are the reasons I liked the book Green Eggs and ham as a child hope you liked it too.

Are You a Leader or a Follower
An important lesson shone in the book Animal Farm is you can't always be a blind follower, sometimes you have to stand up and be a leader. In Animal Farm the animals are always following Napoleon which isn't a good thing because he makes them work hard with almost no food. The ruling is unfair and no one is willing do do something about it. If someone had stood up to Napoleon maybe others would have joined in. They could have started another rebellion, and could have been free from his harsh dictatorship, but no one would stand up.

Carer Day
On Carer day my favorite class was computer science. In computer science he talked about how he gets to try to break stuff for his job. He knows a lot about computers and he gets to take them apart and put them back together for a living. Yet he still makes a lot of money.

Spiritual Emphasis Week
During Spiritual emphasis week at my school i figured out that God can speak through anything and everything. He speaks though the process of refining and even through apple trees. This week Brent told us that even the process of refining gold and silver. Step one is to dig it out of the ground this stands for how you know about Christ. No matter how far down you are, or how many rocks are in the way God can get to you. The next step is to clean the rock of all of the rocks standing out. Next pour the liquid metal into a mold and scrape off the stuff of the top. Last put led into it and it pulls the smallest of rocks out of the liquid metal and floats to the top so you can scrape it off.

People Aren't Always Who You Think the Are
In the book Julius Caesar which I am currently reading I have seen that Caesar has some friends that aren’t really his friends. He has Brutus which he thinks is one of his closest friends that ends up stabbing him and taking part in his assassination. In life people might act like they are your friends but they might just be using you to get closer to other people or to just get stuff from you. The point of this is that people aren’t always who you think they are. Even your best friends might not even be your friends.

The Change of social Status
People do still chance after social status. It isn't important because every cause has an effect. Some people want to be at the top of the chain and the coolest people but that isn't that important because what does it get you. The media says that you have to have money, wear nice closes, or be good at something; but that isn't true.
I was inspired to write this post because of the book "The Necklace"
