That Was a Close Call

In Mr. B's class, one of the projects we have to do is make a movie. So everyone in the class had to write there own script. After that was done we had to make a group and chose a script. After writing my script, we made a group. in the group it was: me, Hayden,Guy, and Cameron. The script we chose was Guy's. Everyone in our group liked his script and it was one of M. B's favorites. So the following friday we filmed at Hayden's house. I thought it was really fun. We filmed the first third of our movie. So far it was going really well. Then our next film session was the next thursday. We were doing an action scene.  It was cool cause I got to kill Hayden. We started out climbing up a roof. But the first time I did it I got a really bad cut on my hand and we had to stop. There was blood everywhere.  So the next couple days we worked on the scene and finally finished that scene. It looked really cool after we were done editing it. Now we are working on our final scene. If we finish early we are planing to make bloopers and a trailer.

I'm Amazin rap rymes

Yo, I'm amazing
you must must be crazy
to ask for another rematch
make me cook up a whole other batch
you'll never get any snatch
til you grow old and get a bald patch
your rhymes are pretty good
but you lack one thing that's culture
I'm so fly I'm crusin like a vulture
when you rap, it sounds like your talkin
when my rhymes are mockin
you see my homies, we always be rockin
in that souped up millennium falcon
i bet you just stuff that pizza in your face
when you watch that gay show, saving grace
I'm crusin in my Bentley
when you in a prius that says rent me
what are you pregnant
oh my god, your water just broke,
nah he just peed your pants, what a joke
yo this battles over remember they call me the closer

this was a rap battle i had against Isaac. these are the lyrics

Frontier House Application

Frontier House
OFFICIAL APPLICATION
Family Name: Holt

Occupations/Schools: Langley Middle School

My hobbies and interests are sports, music, video games and eating.

My image of pioneer life is a log cabin, an old out house, and maybe farm animals.

The most challenging thing my family and I have done is just camping intents, we don't do hardcore outdoor activities as a family.

The things I would miss most would be my friends, music, 21st century food, video games, and my computer.

The good qualities my family has is that we are all hard workers, except for my sister.

The strengths I have are I have stamina, I'm a little bit above average on strengths, and I don't give up easily.

What I hope to get out of this experience is I hope I understand what it was like to live in the 1800's and maybe I won't regret all the simple things in life.

From this experience I hope to learn how to make things out of wood. like small huts and tables and chairs.

This project interests me because when it's over I can say that I've done that.

My only concern is my health, because I'm already skinny, so if I was deprived any food, it might be bad.

I don't know anything about my family roots.

I herd about Frontier House because Mr. B showed the show in his class.

Music


Just in the last couple of years I have really gotten an intrest in music. The stuff I'm listening to wrte now is: t.i., Lil wyane, Young Jezey, Kanye West, Chris Brown, and Jay-Z. If you noticed that's all hip hop nd rap. I don't know why I like like rap, but I just do. When I'm in different moods I listen to certain songs. I think I like rap because it is different. One of my favorite rappers is T.I. He's been through a lot of tough time, and he's done some bad things. But he's trying to turn that all around. I also really like Kanye West, but he can kind of be cocky sometimes. What I think is really cool is when a rapper makes up his own lyrics, instead of having some guy make the lyrics up for him. What I ment by when I'm in different moods I listen to different songs, I mean like when I'm happy I listen to meanigless music with a good beat, but whhen I'm sad I want to listen to something more meaningful. I don't have a favorie song right now, but whan I do, I listen to my favorite song way to much and then get tiered of the song. I'm looking forward to spirit dance, I hope they have good songs and a good dj.

Intimate Poem

Dear shoes,

remember all
the basketball games we played.
All the laps we ran.
You might be worn out
but your still my favorite.

When I got you
you were fresh and new
Look at you now
old and torn.

You might be old
moldy with hair
I think it's time
to get a new pair.

This is just to say Poem

This is just to say
I'm sorry mom
I ate all of your hard work

I ate all the cookies
You spent three hours on
They were delicious
Just like a chocolate tire

I'm so sorry that I ate your hard work
but I think it was worth
This is just to say
I'm sorry

It can be boring
or very fun
Some days are good
some days are bad
It will really help

What If Poem

What if my car could fly
I would go to the moon
I could fly around the world
I should cruise to Hawaii
I'd travel near and far

in my traveling car.

Sci-Fi Monster


On the left is my picture, on the right is guy sparkman's picture.
Gwark the monster is very different then anything you have ever seen. His body parts are very odd. he has an egg shaped head with two blue antennas on it. Gwark has two regular eyes with three pupils in them. All three pupils are pink. For a nose, he only has two little slits. His mouth is fairly normal, but he has teeth like icicles. Gwark has a human like torso, but on his back he wings like a fly. His hands are like red vice grips. Gwark is very strong his muscles are very defined. Gwark has a yellow utility belt like afruit roll up. On his utility belt he has a laser gun like a screw diver. Gwarks legs are like human legs. Gwark has three toes on each foot like triangles. Gwarks whole body is orange. That sums up my whole alien.

Christmas Break



Over Christmas break I had a lot of fun. Every year I go up to my grandma's and Grandpa's house. They have a house up in northeastern Utah. They always get a lot of snow there. On the third day I was there I went snowboarding up at Wolf Creek Mountain. It was the best powder ever. It was a lot of fun. On Christmas Eve I went to the annual party at my aunt's house. On Christmas day I woke up and I opened up some presents. The first thing I opened up was a Xbox 360. The next thing I opened up was a Wii. I was so crazy! It turns out my dad got a Wii for free from work. I also did some sledding. New Year's Eve was awesome. I went to Pocatello and stayed in a hotel there. The hotel was pretty cool. There was a big pool, table soccer, ping pong, and pool. I went swimming for a couple of hours. it was really fun because there was some kids I new there. One was my cousin who is 8, another 8 year old named Hunter. There was also my sister, and two girls: one named Samantha who was 8, and another girl named Danny that was 13. After swimming getting out of the pool, I went up to Danny and Samantha's room and watched T.V. Danny and Sam fell asleep, so I left after a while. Then it was the New Year. Everyone was drinking champagne but me. The next day I came back to my Grandma's house. Then I went Snowboarding, And then I went Home and went to school.
